UFC 316 Merab vs O'Malley 2 Reactions w/ UFC vets Angela Hill and Jessica Penne

0:00
now we're recording yay i love it when we do that hey how you doing it's a beautiful day
0:12
is it i'm a little hung over today i think oh yeah i think i started drinking wine a little
0:18
bit too early it was a long night of fights dude yeah three to what time was it ten like eleven
0:24
oh my god it might have been ten but i mean they just kind of blurred together how do they do it
0:29
on the east coast man i'm very little sleep and lots of caffeine dude they were amped like uh i
0:36
was watching the early prelims and you know how like early prelims you could kind of sit wherever
0:42
you want because no one's like really in their seats yet so you have like all the crazy jersey
0:48
people coming to the front and getting on camera and every time they showed the jersey crowd there
0:53
was at least three or four people with their shirts off. I'm like, what the is going on out there
0:59
They were tailgating inside the arena. They were having, yes. They were like, no one told them that they had to do that outside
1:09
No one really drives out there. Like they all got off of the train and went straight to the arena
1:15
So yeah, they were wilding out. Who was going to stop them
1:19
Nobody, nobody. The mayor of Jersey. He was there too. he had his shirt off as well
1:27
oh man yeah but uh everyone was having fun you know newark is the one show that i went to as a
1:38
guest fighter and i mooned someone there tell me were you there with me tell me more i think because
1:46
my uh my coaches my original coaches from new york came through and i got them a bunch of tickets
1:53
And so like a bunch of my people were there too. And I was a little, I was in a slightly different section because like they'll put the fighters in one section and, you know, the regular, the regular crowd
2:06
With the other riffraff. Yeah, the other Jerseyans in another section. And so, and so I saw my coach's wife and I was like, ah, and then like I was trying to get her attention
2:17
So I like pulled my dress up and moved her. I was pretty lit at this point
2:22
Yeah, that's why you haven't been a guest fighter until recent days. I mean, I have been a guest fighter, just not in Jersey
2:30
They're like, we had to do some PR moves for your Jersey antics
2:38
We know what that brings out of you. We'll put you in Iowa where that shit's allowed
2:44
I feel like it does it to everyone. I feel like being in Jersey just brings out this level of savagery
2:53
Debauchery. It's the Jersey Shore. You're like, this is what gets you famous out here
2:58
No one's going to be mad if you see a little cheek. Especially if it's an in-shaped cheek
3:04
Very round back then. It still is. That was back before I was cutting weight, right
3:13
So it was probably very taut. two little bowling balls. Look at it
3:20
Now they're just a little bit bigger bowling balls. Yeah. Now there's a little like, you know
3:24
jiggle to them. But back then, straight up coconuts. But yeah, the Jersey crowd was loving it
3:33
They had some really good fights to start off the show, but I was so happy with both the main and the co-main really delivered
3:42
And like something about the old lady in me, when a champ finishes a fight, I'm so grateful
3:49
Because it's a long night. People were so upset that I picked all decisions
3:55
So when I picked decisions... Yeah, they were. I was too. I'm like, , don't..
3:59
You're jinxing us. Yes, I don't want to be up till 2 a.m
4:05
I was just thinking, I'm like, you know what? Statistically, not all of them are big finishers
4:10
and they're going against really evenly matched... like people so i just i didn't know and i wanted to be respectful of everybody's talent so i just
4:19
said i don't know how this is gonna end but i picked my winners yeah you know what i'm saying
4:25
see i did the best that i've done in recent times because i was just shooting from the hip yeah
4:29
yeah yeah like uh holla by submission who the knows i don't know and then he got it i was like
4:36
Yo, I am like Nostradamus over here. Yeah, you are. Yeah, Nostradamus
4:41
Hey. So it was a fun night, lots of finishes. And what did you think about our boy, Mr. Marabitavashvili
4:53
Oh, my gosh. Getting a finish? Who is this guy? An Ezekiel
4:58
An Ezekiel from top? What? It was glorious. A tiny guy getting an Ezekiel in MMA is unheard of
5:06
That's a big boy move. Especially with such a skinny neck. Yeah, yeah
5:12
That was a really skinny neck that he Ezekiel'd. It was the perfect recipe
5:16
They were short, stocky arms, a long skinny neck, and it just worked
5:21
Yeah, I don't know. A lot of people were saying that he might have just kind of quit in that position
5:27
I don't know if I've ever felt that type of choke. I felt like a north-south choke, and it looked like it was doing the same kind of things to his neck
5:36
But, yeah, I don't know. Let me put you in it. No, no, put me in it so I can tell you if he ed it or not
5:45
But then there's also different types of pressure, too. Like, a lot of people had criticism over, was it Conor McGregor when he got choked out by Khabib
5:56
it was over the chin and not really under the neck but that jaw pressure it'll break your jaw
6:02
do you want to walk around with your jaw and a brace see how you like it like yeah you're
6:08
tapping the pain but the pain comes before the snap yes it's it's one of those things so i yeah
6:15
i want to i want to uh fill that pressure because it was kind of a modified choke yeah yeah we
6:21
haven't seen that before yeah normally we see normally we see the ezekiel from like the mount
6:27
we have uh that one heavyweight who gets everybody in the yeah like mounted alexi oil nick i remember
6:34
because i'm like it's like he oils their neck up with his arms oil good way yeah good way uh but
6:41
yeah it was it was a beautiful choke um i i like to think that it was just you know properly placed
6:47
and Marab you know got a legit finish I don't like to hear people
6:53
already you know giving excuses or you know giving taking credit away
6:57
from where it's deserved yeah basically I'm just so happy for him because
7:01
he said he's gonna look for the finish and he got it this is his first
7:05
finish since he TKO'd Marlon Marais back in 2021 remember Marlon Marais when
7:13
he was like doing shit he was so scary he was a monster he did the he did the dab knock out of al joe like he's the one
7:22
who knocked out al joe and then he hit the dab position remember when dab was a thing yes that the first time I ever done it I just did a dab I so old Eight years after it was a thing Oh my goodness
7:39
Oh my gosh, you know what I'm talking about. Oh man. So the fight itself
7:45
there was a lot of talk about O'Malley's preparation, how he was
7:50
there was only talk about O'Malley leading up to this fight I did not hear one promo of Merab
7:57
who is the champion all night yeah they have to like put some effort into Merab as a person now
8:05
come on he's a nutcase he's so fun outside of the cage uh he's fun inside the cage I was watching
8:12
his highlights of the Umar fight and I'm like yo he's he's like a modern day gladiator like he he
8:19
He picks the guy up, he throws him down, and then he turns around
8:22
and throws his hands out at the crowd like, are you not entertained during the round
8:29
No, nobody can do that except for him. And now who's going to stop him
8:33
Yeah, there's no telling who's going to stop this guy. His momentum is crazy
8:38
And after a finish like that over Sean O'Malley, who we complained about him getting this immediate title
8:43
or the immediate rematch after Marab already defended, but someone brought up on our channel
8:50
we do listen to your comments, that O'Malley was injured. Now that the injury has been fully healed
8:57
he was dialed in mentally, physically, the fight went worse. It did
9:02
And so, you know, what do you have to say to that? Yeah. Say something now
9:07
Say something, please. Say something. Listen, O'Malley, I've got, I love what he was talking about leading up to this fight
9:15
like really shedding that, reinventing himself. Yeah. really looking inward and realizing that there were a lot of distractions
9:21
I love that. And I hope he continues to build off the momentum. I hope he doesn't get discouraged from this loss
9:27
Yeah. But I think that he's on the right path. Yes, you can, you know, be big and flashy and entertaining
9:33
and also be grounded at the same time. You just have to be able to separate things
9:37
So I love everything that he was talking about. No, for sure
9:41
I think it's really important for people to stay grounded in people to realize that these big flashy things can be distracting
9:49
And they can be flighting. Like you can lose your fans so quick
9:54
You can lose your money so quick when you're buying pink Ferraris
9:59
All this stuff is temporary, but if you stay grounded, if you really put a lot of effort into your circle, your family
10:08
the people who are actually there for you, then it doesn't matter what all the hearsay or all the other stuff
10:14
about whatever happens. Like, yeah, people are going to talk shit about O'Malley
10:18
about the performance, but if he can like stick to what he's been doing
10:22
I think that's going to save him in the long run from spiraling out, like just, you know
10:28
being severely depressed after a moment like this. Like that's the kind of stuff that allows you to keep going
10:34
as opposed to just disappearing from MMA forever. Because when you're like, there is a part of me
10:40
Like the the mama like been through it all nurturing part of me that gets sad for O'Malley after a loss like this
10:50
Absolutely. I got sad for Apache Mix, you know, because I'm like, dude, he like I can tell what's going on
10:56
Like he's he's stiff. He's frozen in the moment. I get sad for all these guys who come in there and, you know, they've just been winning, winning, have these huge streaks and they haven't really had to fight back from adversity yet
11:09
And then they're in that moment at the biggest stage, like on the, at the biggest part of
11:14
the career, that's when that happens. Like that's when the learning moment happens
11:18
It sucks. But that's, that's the beauty in that, you know, it's an opportunity to reinvent yourself
11:25
to regroup, to figure out what's really important, to figure out what's working, what's not working
11:31
It is an opportunity. It's, it's a hard learned lesson though. And it's something that can get people down and can deter them
11:37
and then you know sometimes it takes people just a little bit longer yeah and but i do think it's
11:43
harder to learn that lesson when you get to that very top sure that you that you had as your goal
11:51
when you were just starting out like if you start out you lose a couple you win a couple
11:56
and then you get to this incredible like championship moment where you're a superstar
12:02
are and everybody loves you, you already learned those lessons. But if it takes you getting there to have that lesson learned of like losing and then
12:12
okay, now you got to regroup yourself while everyone's watching, while everyone's like
12:16
judging you, it's a lot tougher. And that's why you see a lot of people kind of walk away after that moment
12:23
You know, the biggest, I feel like the biggest examples are like Ronda Rousey
12:27
Even Conor McGregor did it to a certain extent. Like, yeah, there were opportunities elsewhere, but after he lost Nate Diaz, like, we haven't really seen him with that same shine that he used to have, you know
12:41
Like, we haven't seen him looking like a dominator of everyone like he was before that happened
12:48
So I feel like it does change people when it happens that late in life
12:52
But moving on, like the actual fight in itself, what differences did you see in this one that you didn't really see in the last Marab versus O'Malley fight
13:04
I saw Marab pressing forward and I saw. So typically, O'Malley does fight kind of on his bicycle
13:13
But I saw more of almost a little apprehension to coming from
13:18
To throw. Yeah, coming to throw because I know that he was really anticipating that takedown
13:24
You know when you're fighting Marab, especially if you've been in there for 25 minutes with him previously
13:28
you know what he's going to go for. You know what he's going to do. The difference that I saw in Marab was just more confidence
13:34
He made the adjustment to that stab kick that O'Malley got him with in the final round of their first fight
13:40
He defended those well. So he just seemed so well prepared for anything that O'Malley could potentially throw at him
13:47
And what I saw from O'Malley was, was caution. Yeah. You know, he, he had felt it before he knew what it was like
13:54
He knew the risks. And I think that there was just, you know, more pressure on it this time because he was
14:01
also so outspoken about him being injured and now he's healthy and he's, you know, he
14:07
just put it on himself that he was going to perform better
14:11
And I think that ended up deterring him in the fight. Well, also, if you're already down one, excuse me, if you're already down one and you're coming in to this free match with the opportunity to make it one and one, there's more pressure on you as well
14:27
Like, you know, you're not going to get that third chance. And Marab, he's kind of like he's up
14:32
So even if he messes up and gets dropped, there's a good chance he's going to get an immediate rematch, too, just to like solidify solidify who actually wins two out of three
14:45
So there's that opportunity for sure. But also Marav has been training
14:50
Marav had a full camp before O'Malley. I think if anything you feel most confident after you have a full camp and it was successful and O wasn able to do that in between So it kind of like yeah that confidence was really key
15:07
I like the way that he just kind of fainted a bunch before he would charge in with his combinations
15:13
And he was dropping O'Malley, like wobbling him, landing good, making him trip over himself
15:19
Like, even if it wasn't, like, a clean, like, drop, O'Malley's momentum running backwards, trying to avoid the shot, got his hands down, made it open for Merab to hit him
15:33
Then he'd fall backwards, trip over himself. Like, there was a lot of things that Merab was doing really well
15:39
And then in that last, well, the last round that they had
15:44
but in the third round, he was able to grab him, pick him up like a baby, and just slam him down on the ground
15:51
Something about the pink shorts made that image very visceral for me
15:58
I love that shade of pink, by the way. Yeah, you like it? It's a great shade of pink. I love it
16:02
I'm a fan. Yeah, the pink shorts just made me think. He just slammed this guy on his diaper. it
16:08
Oh, short shorts, slammed them down right on there and just went for it
16:15
But yeah, I do need you to break down that choke because that still doesn't make sense
16:20
to me. Like, I don't understand it. Right, right now or in the gym
16:26
I mean, you could, you already broke it down. Okay. But we can do it after we doesn't make any sense
16:34
No, it was, it was a very sneaky, sneaky choke. It was nice. It was really nice. Um, yeah. So, uh, we had Marab winning about
16:44
did you hear his post fight speech? Because I didn't get to hear it. I was at a bar
16:49
There was a, it was, it was typical Marab fashion, just, uh, encouraging people to follow their dream
16:55
and work hard. Um, he gave a shout out to his Georgian fans that were in the house. Um, he
17:02
He commended Corey Sanhagen, who is his next opponent. They had a nice little face-off
17:10
It's just, you know, a lot of words all running together, but very enthusiastic
17:18
Oh, man. Did he give O'Malley a second on the mic? They did, and I really, it was hard because, you know
17:27
Marab is having his big moment, and O'Malley's just kind of, you know, standing there waiting
17:31
And it did, it did hurt my heart. That was the moment I was like, oh
17:35
No, it does hurt. And he was, he was very humble, very gracious. He just, you know, thanked everybody who came out to support him, basically
17:45
And, you know, it just, it, it's very humbling. And he showed a lot of humility in his post-fight speech
17:54
And I really hope that, honestly, he's motivated and encouraged just after
18:00
just the way he was after his last loss to come back even better. I hope this really doesn't deter him
18:05
I hope it lights a fire under him. I hope he gets to reinvent himself and, you know
18:09
go through that process as painful as it can be. It's also very, you know, liberating and encouraging once you
18:16
you know, get through that. You hope he remains proud to be an American
18:22
Rob also jumped over the cage and got a selfie with Trump
18:27
Yes, I saw. But he did not walk out to the Proud to be American song
18:33
I was like, oh, wow. This is this is interesting. And Marab's walkout was pretty nuts, too
18:42
He he was walking out and then all of a sudden all these people fell over the the gate
18:49
I didn't see that. Yeah. Yeah. I thought it was someone trying to fight Marab or something like you had like the who was it
18:56
the one guy who ended up punching a guy. So I was like, somebody trying to attack Murab
19:02
But apparently the border, everyone was hanging over it, and then it collapsed
19:09
Oh. But they were able to get Murab off to the side. Jeez, could you imagine if that came down on him
19:15
Dude. Oh, my gosh. I mean, Murab would still fight. He's a maniac
19:18
He'd probably fight with a dislocated whatever. He's that guy. A pole hanging out of his head
19:24
Ah, it's fine. yeah um yeah i i i mean i'm not surprised that trump was there there was an actual
19:32
nazi fighting on the card was there so yeah so they're the swedish guy who
19:42
the viking the viking um has a cover-up tattoo over a very um sus Iron
19:54
What is it called? Iron Eagle Like the German eagle With like the little swastika in the middle
19:59
But like his version Didn't have the swastika But like everything else was like
20:05
The thing that you always see Interesting So like I think eventually
20:11
He realized that it was very offensive And he covered it up
20:15
But like he also has all the other Nazi like starter kit Tattoos
20:21
I thought they were more nodded. The iron cross and the, I mean, it's like, okay, all these other things are okay as long as you don't have like the one that usually has a swastika in the middle
20:34
But the combo. The combination of all those things definitely make it a little suspect
20:42
But at least he took care of the one that was the most problematic. I'd have to see it before and after
20:48
We'll see. if I'll see if I can pull one up. It's like one of those deep
20:53
dive Reddit things that you can find. But while I'm looking for that, why don't you
20:59
talk about Kayla Harris the end new versus Joanna Pingu. Oh man
21:06
I'm so excited to have her as a champion. Now when I was doing my OnlyFans
21:13
live breakdown, I did say honestly I think Harrison is going to win
21:19
But in my dual bits, I picked Pena because I just don't bet against her or DDP at this point
21:25
It's just you just never know with them. But what Kayla Harrison did in such an impressive fashion, she just completely neutralized Pena
21:35
There was there were really no flaws in her performance. She got performance of the night well-deserved
21:42
and she set herself up for an amazing storyline that she really manifested for herself to bring
21:50
Amanda Nunes out of retirement. So now we're going to see this amazing women's fight, probably the greatest women's fight
22:00
of all time. So I'm excited to see it. Yeah, me too
22:04
How do you think she matches that? Well, let's talk about the actual fight first
22:09
um i thought it was cute pena was walking out in her jesus poncho
22:14
on her way to the on her way to the arena she she like had this big jesus poncho on
22:21
it was it was very cute um but yeah the uh the actual fight um pena seemed apprehensive just kind of like O was apprehensive fighting Merab It was that you know
22:36
Pena is, she's tenacious. She's usually more aggressive. But I think that she really had felt the energy and realization that Harrison had her number
22:50
once she got in there for, you know, for the first time
22:55
Okay, so here's a tattoo. So see, he omitted the thing that is usually the part that makes you like, oh, shit
23:06
But this is like one of those tattoos that you see mostly neo-Nazis
23:12
Well, you see the bird and you're like, oh, I know what that represents
23:17
Yeah, like if he's wearing a crew neck, then you're like, okay, I know what's underneath the crew neck
23:24
A true neck. Maybe that was something he did when he was young before he knew any better
23:28
Yeah, and then he got it covered up. So he got this all filled in so it looks more eagle-y and not like a Nazi eagle
23:37
It looks like a normal eagle. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and just say that it was poorly studied
23:47
Just poor decisions. Yes. He just picked it and sticked it. He's like, that looks cool and tough
23:53
It's like getting a pink flamingo in your yard because you're like, oh, it's so cute
23:57
Retro. It's like tropical. And then like suddenly people start showing up at your house wanting to have sex with you and your husband
24:07
Listen, if I had a nickel for every time I made a mistake like that
24:11
Oh, wow. I'm kidding. If you had a nickel, you could buy that content on Jess's OnlyFans
24:20
I'm more expensive than that. How dare you? if you had $9.99 for every time
24:28
Link in bio. Oh my goodness. Oh my gosh. Anyway, yeah, Pena versus Kayla Harrison was
24:35
it went down how I thought it should have gone down, but like you're saying, the Pena anomaly is that a lot of times
24:44
what should happen doesn't, you know? But I like the way Kayla took those illegal up kicks
24:52
like a stud. She was just like, I'm bothered like a pro
24:57
I'm just letting you know she was cheating. She's like, handle that
25:00
Yeah, I just want you to know that. I want you to nip that in the bud. I'm fine, but
25:06
I did think it was weird that they took away the position because Kayla was on top
25:11
and then they stood them back up after the legal upkits happened. See, I figured that it was because the point was taken
25:17
that it would be a reset. Okay, that makes sense. That was my rationale for it
25:23
If it had just been a warning, yeah, start back in the same position
25:27
But the points were taken immediately. There was no warning, no nothing
25:32
And I think that points were taken because there were two of them
25:36
Like she didn't stop after the first mistake. She doubled down. So he's like, that was intentional
25:42
Yeah, yeah, for sure. What was the takedown that she got her with in the second before the Kimura
25:49
There were two foot sweeps. Okay, nice. Nice. Yeah, I was really impressed with her
25:55
And the fact that she was able to snatch up that Kimura so fast
25:58
She had like 10 seconds left. I'm like, ah, she's just going to get on top, land a few elbows maybe
26:05
And she just, ooh, ripped it. I know. I was ready for the round to end, so I started walking to the kitchen
26:12
Whoops. I was like, wait. Oh, man. And, oh, I was pissed because we were at the bar and the waitress walked over and was like, are you done with that
26:23
And I looked over and they were like, oh, and she got like, don't you hate when that happens
26:29
The big moment that you're waiting for in the fight and then you just get distracted by one thing
26:34
Like you look down at a fry or someone texts you, hey, where are you guys
26:40
And then you miss it. You miss the moment. It happens a lot. You were there when we had our little fight party, and it was Usman versus�
26:50
Oh, it blacked out. Yes. And I always tell this story because it's so funny
26:55
It's the final round. We're all like, Usman's got this, blah, blah, blah
27:00
And then it blacks out in the fifth round, and we can't get it back on because Apple TV�
27:06
Guys, Apple TV sucks, or at least it used to with ESPN+
27:10
It would, like, black out all the time. So we're trying to get Apple TV to start working again
27:16
And Jenna's husband, Tyler, looks it up to see what's going on
27:20
He's like, you guys are never going to believe this. I remember that moment
27:26
And we're like, yeah, okay, Tyler, whatever. And he's like, yeah, Leanna was just head kicked, knocked out
27:34
And we're like, shut up anyway. And then we get the TV back on and he was right
27:42
It's crazy. It's crazy. The crazy timing of it. I hate when that shit happens
27:47
But yeah, that was a really awesome win by Kayla. They had a really sweet moment in the cage
27:53
Could you hear like what they were saying to each other? It was, you couldn't totally hear it, but you knew that they were like praying for each other
28:00
Yeah. And it made me like, again, a little, little emotional. Got me all in my girl feelings
28:06
It was just, it was nice because there was just, there, it's such a tense buildup
28:12
that had been going on for months and months and months. And I don't think I could imagine promoting a fight
28:19
with somebody like Juliana Pena. There's no stopping her. But this was the best dance partner for Kayla
28:26
because she got to show how witty she was, show how back and forth
28:31
I was so mad when they showed the promo, like the shit-talking package of her and Pena and Kayla
28:40
because I'm like, why haven't they been showing this everywhere? It was good
28:44
It was so good. Like the back and forth. Oh, I have more wins and you have more finishes and you have wins
28:52
And then she's like, oh, you fought nobody. And then there was just like, oh, you look hungry
28:58
You look skinny. Like, oh, I'm hungry to beat your ass. Like there was a lot of like good witty like, you know, volleys with the shit talk
29:06
You don't get that a lot. Like you don't get that with unscripted promos and it was gold
29:12
They had so much gold that they didn't use. You think they're going to have that gold with Amanda Nunes
29:18
No, they like each other too much. No, Amanda Nunes is going to go. It's going to be so respectful
29:22
And she's going to be long-winded. It's not going to be any chance for Kayla to come back
29:28
because she's just going to be like, you know, I go to the gym and I am the best in the world
29:33
and it is going to be very great to fight you because I am the best and now you are the best
29:37
And Kayla's just going to be like, there's not going to be that fun
29:44
like cattiness between them. And I feel like they wasted an opportunity
29:48
to really make both of them, make a lot of people care about the fight
29:52
But at least we got it on the night of. So we got to see that little bit of it
29:58
But man, I really feel like they're going to be like, dropped the ball on promoting that part of the fight
30:03
It was maybe a misstep. Maybe I wasn't paying attention enough. No, you were
30:10
There wasn't enough of it. Honestly, I feel like most of the promo was about O'Malley's comeback
30:16
and his life changes and all of that stuff and his life changes
30:21
and his mentality. Not jerking off. Yes. Let me tell you. No gooning
30:27
After that performance, I'm gooning. Gooning away. I'm gooding every day until my fight
30:31
Well, you know, they say it's different for women. It actually builds at testosterone. So you should be gooning every day
30:37
Daily. Daily. Oh, my God. Daily finishes, Angela. Yeah, like, hey, hey, this glass is starting
30:45
I'm like, yeah, one second. It's in the bathroom. Flicking it. Just do it first thing in the morning
30:54
Just get it out of the way, just like your morning poo. I feel like if I do it right, well, I usually get my morning poo out right before training, too
31:03
Something about the nerves of, like, okay, time to, like, start moving around
31:08
I'm like, oh, like the horses. That's like the horses. Like the horses
31:12
Anytime I come to the stall with that halter, she's like, excuse me, hold on
31:18
Tail goes up. Lighten my load. All right, let's go on a track
31:23
Now we're ready, let's go. yeah there's something about that but uh yeah i'll just take care of them both at once oh that's
31:35
horrible i feel like there's an order to it but you know that's just me that's just me
31:40
no that's just how that's horrible i don't i don't think it would be fun that way
31:45
you should ask chat gpt what they think the best order is no because then you'll get in that weird
31:53
like section of porn where like that's actually connected for a reason no chat gbt it's an app
32:00
no but if you ask chat gbt about like pooping and jerking off then you're gonna get a bunch of stuff
32:09
that you don't want to yeah did i never told you about when i was in japan and we were like the
32:15
the thing that me and me and adam met in japan for you guys who don't know and one of the things
32:20
we thought was really interesting was going into the porn stores out there
32:24
because they're so weird. Oh yeah, I love Japanese porn. They're so weird
32:29
In your hotel room all the time. Yeah. And everything's like bleeped out
32:32
and this girl's like head-butting a pelvic because they're so little. Yeah, it is like there's a big black bar
32:38
in front of like the vagina and the penis because like that's inappropriate
32:45
But we can still show you like You still see the motion of the ocean. raping children and like
32:50
they'd have of age girls but they would be like dressed up as school girls and they're getting
32:56
like gang raped and stuff and then there was another section of porn
33:00
where like it was all scat porn so like poop was a big
33:06
part of the porno and like they would be pooping in girls mouths like
33:12
doing all this pooping on people's penises. Like, it was just horrible
33:19
But you kept going back for more. But what was so funny about this one porno store that we went to
33:26
they had a section for it, and it was decorated with a toilet
33:31
Like, it had a toilet with Christmas lights around it. Of course it did
33:36
And it was like, this is the section that you've been looking for. And then you look at the back of all the things
33:42
and it's just horrible. Oh, so nasty. You were warned with the toilet
33:48
We were warned or we were invited. This is the same. The Christmas lights made me think it was going to be something a little more festive
33:58
Yeah. A gift. Oh, best believe that was a gift for some people
34:01
We were like, this would be a great gag gift for all our friends at home
34:08
I'm surprised you didn't. No, we did. Oh, okay. It was before I knew you
34:13
Oh, I was like, I feel so left out. No, no, this was 2006 Angie and Adam
34:18
Like we, but no, my school friends got, got lots of weird porn
34:26
It was the best gift to get them. You can't get it over in America
34:30
But yeah, anyway, what are we talking about? We were talking about fight promo between Amanda Nudas and Kayla Harrison
34:40
Yeah, I don't know how you took that turn. We'll have to watch footage back. Good luck doing the, what do you call it
34:48
The chapters for this one. I'm going to have fun editing this one for sure
34:55
So anyway, yeah, Nunes versus Kayla Harrison should be lit. No one else
35:05
It'll be a great fight. Maybe the prono will be a little bit too, like, humble and mellow
35:12
you know like girl power for you but it's gonna mean a lot when that fight happens and we probably
35:17
won't get it for a while because of kayla's weight cut did you see her before and after
35:22
like her 9 a.m versus her 5 p.m yes she looked like a rehydrated raisin it is like it is no secret
35:32
she has been very vocal about the pains of that weight cut that is extremely low for her competitive
35:40
of weight throughout her out her uh combat career so it is it's no wonder that it'll probably be a
35:47
while before we see it i hope the ufc does not rush her yeah i hope that they give her time and
35:53
space and like i really hope that the pi and her management step in and just like really have her
35:57
back on this because that is not easy for your body to recover if you are on that strict of a
36:03
diet you've cut that much weight your body needs ample time to recover otherwise it'll start
36:08
holding on to weight. We remember what happened with, uh, what's her name? The Bellator tournament
36:13
winners, Oila Frost. So her body was never the same. Oh yeah. She, I mean, she had a nutrition
36:17
or a dietitian nutritionist at that time, but still making weight back to back to back for that
36:24
tournament completely screwed up her body and she was never the same. And so again, there's all sorts
36:31
of, you know, science and support that she has. Um, I'm sure. However, I just think that if they
36:37
want her at her best and they want the best fight possible i really hope that they give her time
36:42
they should because like the visuals of her weighing in so professional just getting on the
36:48
scale doing her thing but like seeing what she looked like you gotta believe the girl when she
36:53
says like this is tough like this is this is a fight in itself and like you can see her
36:59
when she turns to the side and her waist is this big versus what she looks like when she gets in
37:05
cage like it's it's crazy it's night and day and she said in her in her post fight um speech talking
37:12
because they did address the weight cut and she said that the only and don't quote me i'm not
37:19
getting this exactly right but she said that the only person that can get me through that is god because she ready to to quit for that weight class that last pound making that championship pound was just brutal for her Yeah damn Poor girl Well she mentioned maybe trying to do 145
37:37
with Nuna's first. It's like a warm-up. I don't mind. Listen, you have two of the best
37:46
women's MMA fighters in the world. They're big for the weight class
37:53
They've both fought at higher weight classes. I don't mind that. We can have Ketlin Vieira waiting as an alternate just in case
38:00
She'll miss weight. No, 145 is her weight class. That's her weight class now
38:06
Oh, man. I don't want to see 145 get brought back. I just don't really think that there are enough women for it
38:14
There wasn't in the first place. However, for these two women, I wouldn't mind seeing it at 145
38:19
Like just for their legacy. You know what I'm saying? It's a big risk for Nunes, though, because she is a natural 135er
38:27
When she went up to 45, it was just to make a point. But to do that fight first, I think, is a big risk for her
38:35
because the damage that she could potentially take if Kayla Harrison gets on top of her at 145 will be horrible
38:47
Like, that's a bigger risk than standing in front of Cyborg. You know what I mean? being stuck underneath Kayla Harrison where she can throw 12 to six elbows
38:54
where she can beat on you before she goes for a submission
38:58
If she wants to go for a submission, like that part I feel like is
39:02
would be a reason for Nunes to be like, nah, I'll just wait. We'll just cut all the weight
39:08
I'm just chilling. I'm just chilling until you can make one 35
39:13
Like I'll, I'll wait a year for that. But I think if anything
39:16
we see how John Jones has been giving the opportunity to wait as long as he wants
39:22
So I don't think UFC will rush Kayla Harrison, especially because there isn't a person begging to challenge aside from Amanda Nunes
39:30
No, that's the fight that everybody wants to see. That's the fight I think that should happen next
39:36
People can say what they want, but I think that that's the fight to make
39:40
Yeah, for sure. Did you sign the petition for John Jones being stripped
39:44
I did not. Did you sign that one? No. There's thousands of people apparently that have signed it
39:49
And I was so mad. Did I tell you that change.com or .org, the thing that the petition was put on
39:58
they messaged me on Instagram? What? Change.org slid into my DMs and said, hey, this is a cause that you might be interested in
40:09
Maybe you'd like to sign this petition. And I was so disappointed in them
40:13
I actually, I wrote something back. I was like, change. I had so much respect for your organization and the good work that you do until I got this message
40:26
All the shit that's going on in the world that I could be signing a petition for, like hunger, like fixing the water in Flint, like all this other shit
40:36
And you're sending me a petition about stripping Jon Jones. I was so disappointed in them
40:42
They're like, oh, we're sorry about that. Sorry, Miss Hill. We'll circle back later with our next cause
40:50
Circle back. I thought that was so like unserious and dumb and ridiculous
40:55
But anyway, apparently Dana White didn't care either. He knows what he knows
41:02
People are upset about it. But at the same time, you know, Jon Jones, Jon Jones
41:07
So we'll see if we can get a fight. But apparently something's going down on Tuesday. Yes
41:11
Tuesday is always the day to release the news. That's been, you know, they, the UFC people just need a little
41:19
a little break, a little siesta. Yeah. Or siesta, whatever that word is
41:23
Yeah. They just need to chill for a minute and then regroup and then they'll release things
41:27
Let everything center. But it is really funny to hear the rumor mill go, you know
41:32
Yeah. No, it's silly. What did you think about Kelvin Gosselin versus Joe Pfeiffer
41:40
that boy has a hard head. I almost got my other pick
41:46
I almost got it. Joe Pfeiffer by KO. But yeah, like you said
41:50
Gastelum's head is hard as . And so again, this is why I pick decisions on these because I know how tough each person is
41:58
You know what I'm saying? So I know that it is no easy feat to put Kevin Gastelum away
42:03
but oh God, God. Oh my God. That was all fuzz. That was all foam
42:08
Fuzz. The foam. Oh, the coffee. The phone. Yes. I'm not just an idiot at drinking
42:17
I've got to say, though, Pfeiffer, like, he had the ability. I mean, we saw it in the first round
42:24
and then he just didn't build off that momentum in the second and the third
42:29
He got more, like, apprehensive almost. if if he you know wants to make a statement for himself he's got to diversify his offense he's got
42:43
to like really figure out how how to shut like how to shut his opposition down the veterans for
42:50
sure yes yeah it's it's a tough lesson for him to learn I mean he won so you gotta wonder if he's
42:57
going to like take this experience and grow from it. But yeah, I think Kelvin Gastelum does that to a lot of people
43:05
Like he exposes things that, you know, makes his opponents really uncomfortable, whether
43:12
it's a win or a loss. And it's just his ability to stay in your face
43:17
I mean, he did that with Israel Asanya before he became like this dominant champion, you know
43:23
So it is he he's kind of become like that that stepping stone to greatness
43:27
I think if Pfeiffer is able to take those lessons learned from this fight and use it, then he's going to go on to do great things
43:37
But, yeah, the fight almost ended. Like, I think a guy tougher or a guy less tough than Gastelum would have been finished in that first round
43:46
And, you know, the higher you climb in the rankings, the tougher your opponents, the more veterinary your opponents are
43:54
the more you're going to see moments like this where they're able to handle that first offense
43:59
They're able to handle that thing that you've been dropping all the other guys with
44:04
Now what do you do? What I would like to see moving forward from Pfeiffer is more volume, more faints
44:11
He is looking for that big one knockout blow, which he does have that
44:16
but he's at that point, like you were saying, when you go against people that are more skilled, more savvy, have more experience
44:23
you're going to have to give them more. You're going to have to inflict more damage
44:28
It's going to have to be an accumulation, not necessarily just one devastating punch
44:33
Yeah. Mixing it up to the body a little bit more too. I thought it was so funny and ironic that DC was going
44:42
he needs to hit him in that soft midsection. I'm like, no, it's a trap
44:47
hitting somebody with a midsection such as Gastelum's they just absorb it it is I mean I think they might have a better poker phase but dc knows like he knows what a trap he knows what the soft midsection can take they can take a lot they can take a lot
45:09
i don't know i yes i think you don't feel like you can hit someone who's big just because they're
45:17
big and there's like cushion in front of it but it still gets through like that it is still you
45:23
just got to make sure you hit the right part of the stomach like that it's a very specific spot
45:27
and it's very protected well if there's more stomach too it gives you more options like having
45:32
a big head you know like you can there's a lot of parts when someone has a big head there's a lot
45:38
of parts of the head that you can hit that's not actually going to concuss them yes there is more
45:42
surface area to touch however you still have to be precise yeah you have to find that mark i think
45:50
Like if he mixed it up, it's only going to leave the hands a little lower so he can land that headshot
45:56
But you got to mix it up like you can't you don't have to like go for the knockout blow with the body shot
46:02
But when you do go to the body more, then it gets people guessing where you're going to be
46:08
And then they block for the body shot, especially if you got close to the little knockout button, which happens with the big boys, too
46:16
You get close to that knockout button, they go down, and then you hit them over the top
46:21
I just thought it was ironic that DC was saying it. I was like, that's rude
46:26
Well, I guess he would know better than anyone. I guess you can say it. Well, what about the fight before that
46:36
Was it Patchy Mix? Yes, it was. We talked a little bit about that, but, man, Mario Batista
46:43
I had this feeling going into this. I got to talk to Patchy Mix on my serious show
46:50
It's the last show I'm doing before my fight. But I got to talk to Patchy for a second
46:55
And he was very convinced about just his accolades versus Mario Batista's
47:03
versus like Marab's versus Piotr Jan. Like he's beaten guys that have beaten them
47:10
Lots of MMA math in his justification for coming into the UFC
47:15
and being able to dominate. But the one thing that worried me was that Mario Batista
47:20
doesn't have a lot of hype behind him. But he's been doing the work that would have gotten anyone else hype
47:29
So it's kind of tough to go in and just really take someone super serious
47:35
when they've just been grinding like you have. Basically, they're both equally as hungry
47:41
They both haven't gotten to that level of stardom yet. And yeah, I was just worried that he was going to do the same thing that he did with Aldo
47:53
Just use his gamemanship to shut him down. Just like a volume attack going high and low
48:00
Not really doing what he expected him to do. He didn't go for takedowns against him
48:06
Just pitter pattered and threw a lot of volume on the feet. And it shut Pachimix down
48:11
It was hard to watch. The first round was very telling. Patchy just didn't have an answer to anything
48:20
And he just kept absorbing punishment and damage. And as the fight went into the second and third round, I'm just like
48:29
man, he's not making the adjustments that he needs to make. Mario shut him down in the sense that Patchy couldn't get to where he wanted to be
48:38
Usually he's so good. He has the same path every single fight
48:42
And you could tell that Mario really prepared for this because Patchy did not have that entrance in to take the back to, you know, get that body triangle like he usually does
48:53
And all the footage that I watched of Patchy, I didn't watch his loss to Juan Archuleta
48:59
And I think that that one would have been very telling. And I think maybe that's what Mario Latista keyed in on is you got to put punches in the face
49:07
Well, he probably watched his last fight against Magomedov, which was, you know, he subbed him the first time they fought
49:16
Patchy did, but then the second time it went to a split decision, and you kind of saw a little bit of that stiffness in that fight
49:25
Like, he wasn't really moving his head. He wasn't really going forward
49:30
He kind of waited for the counter a bit, and it worked in that fight, but barely
49:35
You know, whenever it's a split decision, like I almost feel like you have to consider that a loss because it was so close that a judge could have given it to the other guy
49:45
And so you have to look at what was working for that other guy and make some adjustments
49:51
But yeah, you saw I saw glimpses of that fight in this fight where anytime Pachi got hit, like he didn't answer by moving his head
50:00
He didn't like, you know, change levels. he just kind of continued his Terminator walk forward or back and looked for counters
50:08
And Mario Batista was just ready for all that. Like every time he felt like, Patchy felt like he was going to land that knee coming in
50:18
Batista pulled back, you know, he was like pulling, pulling, pulling. And then as soon as he got a read from Patchy, he would come in with that one, two
50:27
or he would just stick the jab or he would just like, you know, come in with a longer combination but changing levels the entire time
50:35
so that the counters weren't really there for Patchy. It was a really textbook way to break someone down, you know
50:44
Like he avoided all of Patchy's strengths and just did what he had to do to win the fight
50:50
And it's kind of a similar thing he did with Jose Aldo too
50:54
Like he just stayed away from where he's good. and I feel like a guy like Mario Batista
51:01
even though it's not going to be a fan favorite because it's this workman-like way of approaching fights
51:07
where he's just doing more than the other guy and not getting big knockouts or bigs
51:12
I mean, he does have a lot of submissions in his name, but I think once he gets to the higher-ups
51:17
he's gaming it more. He's going to win a lot of fights, though, on his way to the top
51:21
He's going to upset a lot of people. Yeah. A lot of people are saying that Patchy looked a little not like himself
51:31
Did you see that? It did. No, it was surprising. It looked a little bit surprising
51:37
It could have been a combination of both. Again, I don't want to take away from the beautiful work that Mario Batista did
51:43
in shutting Patchy Mix down, but he did look quite flat. And I'm not saying that he's a super solid striker
51:51
He's primarily a grappler wrestler type of fighter, but he just looked a bit bewildered
51:58
in there at times and there just weren't good reads or good adjustments
52:03
It, I don't know if that was because of Mario or something that was going on with Patchy
52:09
I don't know. But either way, it was a great performance by Bautista
52:14
You know, I could see him moving up the rankings and starting to, you know, get the, hopefully
52:19
he gets that Marlon Vera fight that he was supposed to get. Yeah, I mean, watching that performance
52:24
I'm like, he would have given Marlon Vera fits because he does the same thing He kind of watches the fight in front of him And if Batista hasn given him anything that he feels like is going to knock him out
52:37
he doesn't really wake up until he's in that final round and then trying to, you know, get the knockout win
52:43
or just drop him a couple times in order to win the rounds. But yeah, I could see this style of fight really messing up Chito Vera's style
52:51
it's I mean it's a it's a challenging recipe for for anyone really because he will exploit and fight
52:59
you where your weakness is yeah yeah I like uh that Kyler Phillips fight who's he fighting next
53:07
he's fighting someone big next right uh hold on because I think anyone that kind of flows would
53:14
give Batista trouble like uh Kyler Phillips is one of those guys where you don't know what he's
53:19
going to do, where he's going to be when he fights you. Oh, he's a fun one
53:23
Yeah, he just kind of goes with the flow. Like his nickname is The Matrix, and that's exactly how he fights
53:28
He's just like, well, here I am. Now I'm doing a takedown. Now I'm cartwheel kicking you
53:33
You know, like he just, he's very in the moment. I feel like that's the type of person that you need to be when you fight someone like
53:40
Mario Batista, who seems like he does a lot of studying. He's very, he's a good soldier
53:45
Like he's going to do exactly what his coaches say. and it's going to work a lot of times
53:50
especially because he's just, like, going to do the thing that's going to get him to win
53:54
I think that would be a fun one. Yeah, that'd be cool. It looks like he scheduled to face
54:00
ooh, Vinicius Oliveira. That guy's good, too. Ooh, yeah. That guy's really fun
54:07
That's going to be a dope fight. When's that happening? July 19th
54:11
Oh, coming up. At UFC 318. Oh, fun. Coming up. The Nolans
54:17
All right. Oh, is that a farewell fight? Is that a farewell fight for Poirier
54:26
Yeah. Is that his retirement? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is, right? Like that's his last fight
54:31
He's retiring after that. Yes, I think so. Yeah, so he's going to �
54:35
I never take people seriously when they – The thing about retirement is you can come back from it
54:42
Yeah, exactly. I do feel like Poirier has been ready to retire the last four or five years
54:49
but you never know. One guy who isn't retiring anytime soon is Kevin Holland
54:56
He got a dope submission over Vicente Luque. It was also kind of a modified thing, a modified darts or whatever
55:06
and it was good, man. I was really impressed with him, another one of my picks
55:11
But it could have gone either way. Like Vicente Luque is one of those guys who who has submitted some of the top people who has knocked out some of the top people
55:22
And he had that really nasty injury. Who was it? Was it Jeff Nill, who just really hurt him in a fight
55:31
And he hadn't really been the same since then. But Vicente Luque, he like had like blood in his brain or some shit
55:39
and he's finally back and looks like he's doing all right now um it was a good fight against um
55:47
kevin holland but kevin holland was just a step ahead of him on the grappling department it was
55:53
a really nice setup he just snatched that head up sat through and got the darse it was cool yeah
55:59
it was jeff nil he said he uh when he fought jeff nil like it caused some kind of like bleeding in
56:05
his brain he had to take a long time off yeah damn i'm glad he's healthy again yeah yeah he's
56:10
that was back in 2022 so um yeah i'm happy that he's he didn't look like he got like severely hurt
56:19
in this fight let's just holland is so scrappy let's just let's just give him uh grapplers
56:26
from now on but yeah like like holland was throwing too like he was throwing heat in the
56:32
first round. I love how his arms were coming out like whips
56:37
It was just really loose and his shoulders were really moving and make
56:42
everything, making all the strikes very long. Yeah, he did seem to overwhelm
56:49
Vicente a bit. I thought it was very telling when Vicente came in for that single and
56:54
Holland just started unloading at him. His defense to the takedown was striking
57:01
him so hard that he had to let go. Yeah, yeah. It was a lot. And it's so, it's funny watching Holland sometimes because it almost looks like erratic and chaotic
57:12
But it's his style and it makes for really exciting fights. And it is really effective
57:17
But you just almost don't know what's going to happen. And he was talking the whole time
57:21
Yeah. He did not stop talking. I couldn't hear what he was saying. I really wish that we could figure out how to like lower the mic or mic him up when he fights
57:28
like put it in his hair or his like a drawstring or something something braided in there give him
57:35
one of those necklaces that we had to wear on top oh god the microphone necklace with a big battery
57:42
pack on top you just gotta get the boom guy just a little more active like get a boom guy with some
57:48
big forearms so he can just got it got it i got the clip yeah it's so good yeah no it was really good and i feel like when
58:00
kevin holland is talking he's the best version of himself you know he's in that flow state he's
58:05
feeling himself he's focused and he can just put his body on autopilot and then like everything's
58:11
working together it's it's a really it's a really interesting cool thing to see because not a lot of
58:16
people can do that like yeah you have to be very focused and conscious and and uh decisive when
58:22
you're in there and he just seems to be like fired in all cylinders yeah it's like uh when you have
58:29
the really fun like energetic kid uh in school and then like their parents finally put them on
58:34
redolin and then they're just they're just like like what happened what happened to kevin why
58:43
isn't Kevin like being fun right he's off the meds yeah so like I feel like when he's quiet he's
58:49
he's almost taking the fight too seriously you know he's like he's he's like I really gotta win
58:54
this fight so I'm gonna focus I'm gonna take my meds I'm gonna do my homework I'm gonna watch all
59:00
the tape I feel like 185 is his meds I feel like when he's at 170 I just want to say him stay at
59:07
170. I know there are big fights and it's great to, you know, fight more often and get that money
59:13
and that experience. But 185, I just think his body is better suited for 170. Yeah. And I think
59:19
that's when we see him at his best. Yeah. He's much longer than these guys. A lot of times when
59:24
he fights him 170, he, it doesn't seem like the weight cut is super hard for him. Like when he
59:29
weighs in, he doesn't look like Kayla Harrison, you know, like he looks, he looks like a normal
59:34
guy weighing in and uh yeah i think i think it's done well for him being available at whenever to
59:43
like jump in at 185 or 170 but now like now that you're making the money now that your
59:49
your contract is pretty high for your show like put some effort into just cutting the weight and
59:56
fighting at the weight class where you could do the most damage and i think that's 170 um yeah maybe move up the ladder a little bit yeah maybe you know make a statement yeah i was
1:00:07
surprised he wasn't ranked um at 170 when when he was fighting uh vicente luke he'll probably have
1:00:14
a ranking um come tuesday or whenever they do that but he called out colby covington i thought
1:00:22
i thought it was great he shook trump's hand but then he called out the worst fighter which is
1:00:29
Trump's boy, Colby, I thought it was a really funny little thing that he did there
1:00:35
Like, I feel like that would cut deep for Colby. The fact that he did all that at the same night
1:00:41
Just like, how are you going to call me the worst fighter in front of my boy
1:00:45
You know, how are you going to do that to me? It's all promo. I think it would be a great fight promotion
1:00:51
I think that they would get really obnoxious. Yeah. Well, I don't know
1:00:56
Colby's been quiet, too. like I don't know if uh if if Colby has the same problem that Kevin Holland has where when he
1:01:05
isn't talking that's when you get the worst performance out of him but like yeah I think
1:01:10
they both need to mouth off and make it a really fun night for everyone so yeah that that was a
1:01:16
good call out I thought that was really cool um and yeah that that uh submission too I need to
1:01:23
figure out how he set that up because I've never seen someone set up a
1:01:27
DARS rolling backwards. Yeah, you can hit DARSs. I trained with someone
1:01:32
at Legion. His name is Eric. He hits the DARSs from anywhere
1:01:37
Once you see it, you can't unsee it. You just can hit them
1:01:43
from all sorts of positions. Yeah, it's nice. I really like that setup. I feel like
1:01:49
that in the top side Ezekiel everyone's going to be doing on Monday in Jiu Jitsu class
1:01:55
All the blue belts are going to be doing it. Were there any
1:01:59
fights that you really liked on the prelims? You know what, there were some good finishes
1:02:08
Gotta talk about, what's his name? Hold on. Early prelims. Just one moment, please
1:02:17
Yu Yu Sang took on Jekka Saragi. And this kid walked out to Zombie
1:02:28
and he paid homage after his fight to the Korean Zombie and said he wants to carry on his legacy
1:02:33
This kid is just really polished. He's advanced to 9-0. Very impressive
1:02:39
He caught Jekka, who has dynamite in his hands. He does not have necessarily the most well-rounded game
1:02:47
But this was, you know, potential for fireworks, which it was. Jekka came in with a really big kind of looping power shot
1:02:56
And Sang ended up stepping out with a nice little check hook and just dropped him flat
1:03:01
Yeah, that was nasty, man. Just the timing on it, too. Like he pulled, he pulled, he kind of stepped to the side
1:03:09
And then as soon as Jekka came out with that big one-two, he just kind of boop
1:03:15
Like his hand was already there. That was the cool part. His hand was already there
1:03:20
He slid to the outside of the punch and was just able to torque with enough power to drop him just from this amount of space
1:03:29
Like that was the coolest part about it. When you get somebody to come in so aggressively, and if you watch any of the footage on Jekyll, you know that that's what he's doing
1:03:38
He's looking for the knockout. He's felt that power before. You know he's going to do it. So you just need so little
1:03:45
to shut that down. Yeah, yeah. But, you know, the angle of the punch too
1:03:51
like just the fact that he was able to catch him with just like such good timing like that
1:03:56
And I felt like it was the only thing he had landed. There were a few punches thrown
1:04:02
but for the most part, it was him kind of backing away from Jekka and Jekka coming forward with power
1:04:07
So for that to be like one of the first big things you throw and for it to end in a face plant knockout
1:04:14
like man the visuals on that were just like nasty poor jacka too like i know and that's another i'm
1:04:21
like oh like that was a cool knockout but oh no it hurts and you know you know everybody's on the
1:04:27
chopping block jacka for sure uh was you know oh yeah kind of in in the red zone in the danger zone
1:04:36
so i don't know what you know the future looks like for him but i hope again it's a learning
1:04:41
experience yeah he um he has lost three of his last four in the ufc it's hard these kids coming
1:04:51
off of road to the ufc um and their road to the ufc is tapping into more of like the asian market
1:04:59
and it's a tournament format and these are it's almost um almost like the tournament before you
1:05:07
would get to the contender series like they're very green in this in the show yeah and so if you
1:05:15
win the contract and you get into the OC it is a really tough learning curve yeah it's a lot of
1:05:21
really underdeveloped green fighters and now they're thrown into this you know division where
1:05:28
they either sink or swim yeah it's really nuts and and they're also coming from places where they
1:05:33
don't really have big scenes like uh you know you'll get your people from like china and korea
1:05:39
uh where they have like more of a mma scene but like jacka being from indonesia you have like uh
1:05:46
the the puja from from india like you have a lot of people from areas where they don't really have
1:05:53
a huge mma scene yet so uh to find that diamond in the rough and for them to not get destroyed when
1:06:01
they're fighting these other diamonds in the rough from other places is
1:06:05
is a really, you know, it could, it could be heartbreaking when you see it not work out for people. Yeah
1:06:12
Yeah. That one was a good fight. Well, that was a really interesting fight
1:06:17
It was like, damn, no, it was pretty shocking. That was a damn moment in the prelims
1:06:23
Also, the chick fight was interesting because you had Arian Lipsky, now Dos Santos
1:06:33
She fought Wang Kong, who the commentators were calling her Wang Tong a lot
1:06:38
I was like, which one is it? It's spelled Kong, but y'all are mixing it up
1:06:43
But they fought each other. The Joker won. And I felt like even though she had that crazy weight mess, I felt like she looked smaller
1:06:53
in the fight than Wang Kong. Wang looks like she cuts a lot of weight
1:06:59
Yeah. She's very lean, looks very powerful. She has knockouts to her record to prove it
1:07:07
I did have to commend Da Silva in this fight because she took so much damage early on from those calf kicks
1:07:14
and I know what that feels like. I know how bad she probably wanted to just have a seat
1:07:21
Yeah. And she did. Yeah, she did a couple times. And she did but she got back up But she got back up And I mean even in the third round you saw her trying to you know really trying to dig deep and get a win and just trying to push forward
1:07:36
It's no easy task, especially when you're in such a compromised position and feeling
1:07:42
that pain. Like adrenaline wears off at a certain point and you just start feeling it, you know
1:07:48
It only goes so far and it usually doesn't last the whole round or like the whole fight
1:07:52
I mean. Well, that's why the calf kick is such an odd thing. Like you can see people tough through like kicks to the thigh a lot more than you can see them tough out like a calf kick
1:08:04
When you land right on that nerve, it shuts down your foot like your foot stops working
1:08:11
So it's not just pain. It's numbness. You're not really sure what's going on down there
1:08:15
You can like roll your ankle really bad. We've seen that happen to Michael Chandler in some of his fights before
1:08:22
he made it to the UFC like if you're able to shut down that nerve it's like even if you
1:08:28
gut through it and keep walking forward you don't know what's going on below your knee
1:08:32
like like there's no feeling there so it was um really impressive that Wayne Kong was able to land
1:08:39
that but she was really disappointed in her performance I guess she wanted the finish it
1:08:44
wasn't able to get it um one thing I think that is going to expose Wayne Kong and it already kind
1:08:50
has is her ground game. Like I'm wondering how many people they can give her before she has to fight
1:08:57
someone that's going to take advantage of that. And I feel like it's going to happen soon
1:09:02
I mean, if she's calling out Indra, there's a good chance that could happen too
1:09:07
But, you know, Indra's been looking very hittable lately. And we'll see if that's a smart caller
1:09:14
And we'll see if Indra takes the bait. Don't do it. No, don't let her build her name off of you
1:09:20
Don't do it. Just fight someone at straw weight. Yeah. Yeah. What are you doing
1:09:28
Be a weight bully. You know better by now. Come on. Yeah
1:09:32
But yeah, I do like her, the addition of Wang Kong to the scene
1:09:38
But I feel like she's going to get exposed soon again. Yeah
1:09:42
It's she's going to eventually meet someone that she can't get back up from
1:09:49
Yeah. Who was the girl before it was? What was her name
1:09:56
She's at MMA Masters, the girl that she lost to. Oh, hold on
1:10:03
Gabriela Fernandez. Yeah. And she was doing good against her, too. She was lighting her up on the feet
1:10:10
then I think she shot in and the girl was able to reverse it and get on her back and get the
1:10:17
rain ticket so I think more of that's going to happen once people are able to get past her
1:10:22
striking and she fights someone who's a decent wrestler it's it's hard because once you've
1:10:27
experienced you know the power in your hands and once you've had success in that you'll
1:10:33
you'll keep looking for it and it will almost prevent you from working on your biggest tools
1:10:39
because you're always relying on that. So it will take a devastating loss
1:10:47
to kind of be the catalyst for change if she hasn't already started working on that
1:10:53
Yeah, and I'm sure she is. It just takes so long. It does. But speaking of power in their hands, Joshua Vance
1:11:00
Oh, my goodness. This kid, 23 years old. Dude, what an addition to the flyweight division
1:11:07
we've seen Bruno Silva get knocked out before but you know against much more seasoned guys
1:11:17
Joshua Van is kind of a newcomer and he was able to take out Bruno Silva
1:11:23
who's kind of under the radar but has fought some of the best people in the flyweight division
1:11:29
Manel Kopp, Cody Durden he knocked out Cody Durden And so for Joshua Van to get a knockout over Bruna Silva is a really big deal considering how long he's been in the UFC
1:11:42
What has he been? Only a couple years? I think like just a few fights
1:11:49
Yeah. 2023. 2023 is when he got in here. Yeah. It's been, I mean, it has been an upward trajectory
1:11:57
and he's one of those kids where I'm like, I don't see a lot of holes in his game as of yet
1:12:04
He's already ranked number 14th. He'll definitely have moved up. Bruno Silva was number 12
1:12:10
So he'll maybe jump up a spot or two. But he's one of those kids where I'm like
1:12:15
yeah, let's just keep giving him those big challenges. I almost don't want to hold him back, you know
1:12:21
No, for sure. Like, keep giving him these guys and give him guys who he can knock out
1:12:26
Like, give him guys who got knocked out before but are still in the top of the division
1:12:31
I think we're going to see some really fun exchanges, fun knockouts
1:12:35
and just see how good his boxing is. Because it's definitely levels above the guys that he's fought already
1:12:43
Who's Kai Asakura fighting next? I don't know. Isn't he the big push from Japan
1:12:50
Yeah, and he lost. Right? He lost to... Oh, yes, he lost to Pantoja
1:12:56
Yeah, but he got the immediate shot. Yes, he did. He is going to face Tim Elliott at 319
1:13:05
I'm not excited about that. You'll see 319. Why? Oh, it was Tatsuro Taira that I was thinking of
1:13:16
That's who I want to see him fight. Tatsuro Taira? Yeah. He was another big push from Japan
1:13:23
He has a really impressive record. But he's been working his way up
1:13:27
Yeah, he's ranked number five. He didn't just get brought in to fight the champ. No, no, no, no
1:13:31
No, he came in pretty hot, though. He was a big prospect
1:13:35
He's set to fight no one. He just fought. Wait. Royval just beat him
1:13:42
He was, yeah, I think I want to see them fight. Yeah, that'd be cool
1:13:47
I think that would be a really cool fight because they're both kind of, you know, these young, well-rounded, spunky kids
1:13:54
and whippersnappers. Tatsuro Taira is the guy who got that weird leg thing
1:14:02
The stripper pole thing? Right, yeah. The leg thing versus Alex, what's his name
1:14:09
Was it Perez? Yeah, Alex Perez. So yeah, I'd like to see that too
1:14:14
I want to see that one. Knock him out for doing the stripper pole and blowing out someone's knee
1:14:19
I think that would be such a fun fight. Make that happen
1:14:23
Who do I have to call? Well, it looks like he's fighting Amir al-Bazi
1:14:27
Lame. No. But it's August 2nd, so there's a chance that they can still make that matchup
1:14:33
after that fight goes down. Somebody go take out Amir. All right
1:14:41
Well, there are a couple other finishes, but we haven't talked about them
1:14:45
You had that heavyweight guy get the knockout, and he's like, why isn't nobody like me
1:14:53
but he probably be making some noise And if he keeps doing what he been doing That was a good fight too Azamat Azamat guy
1:15:06
And then what else? Yeah, that's it. Oh, the Waldo fight was kind of a weird one
1:15:13
But we'll have to talk about that. Like, I wasn't sure 30-27 was fair, but definitely thought 29-28 was something that could have been the case
1:15:24
And he ended up getting the win. Spivik seemed pretty mad about that
1:15:28
Did you watch that one? I did, but not closely enough. But I knew there was some controversy about it
1:15:33
Yeah, I think it's just the fact that nobody knew who the judges were. And then the 3027 guy was definitely an unknown name
1:15:41
And I'm like... You're not getting invited back. Are these guys going to the school of judging from Douglas Crosby
1:15:48
Did they graduate from that school of MMA judging? Crosby University where the right fighter
1:15:58
is the wrong fighter every time that was a good night of fights
1:16:04
do you already have picks for is that next week? yeah next week they're going to ATL
1:16:12
we got UFC fight night Usman versus Buckley Nama Yunes versus Miranda
1:16:19
Maverick on the co-main Then you got a lot of a lot of known guys
1:16:25
I'm still so jealous that these guys get to fight in ATL because I had so much fun last time I went for a fight night
1:16:34
And I just want to fight in front of my people. I'm sorry
1:16:41
You'll be fine. Where's your fight? Thank you. Where's your fight? And the apex. Oh, I'm sorry
1:16:45
There are no black people in the apex. like the the cut men that's it they don't they don't buy tickets for the eight ticks they're
1:16:57
like two thousand dollars like yeah it's stupid yeah no they are why do you think they only let
1:17:05
people come in for the one one fight if you if you get family in the apex and i'm hoping that's
1:17:12
why i'm like okay i hope the construction is done by the time i fight because they've been
1:17:16
doing this construction for a while now. But as of right now
1:17:20
if family comes to watch you fight in the Apex or whoever your four tickets are for
1:17:24
they come in for the one fight and then they get them out of there. There's one couch for your people
1:17:30
They come in, they sit on the couch, they watch you fight, and then they kick you out. And it's so lame
1:17:35
I'm like, I want my people to be able to come and sit through all the fights
1:17:39
and anticipate me coming on. And then I come out and then I get to hug them
1:17:44
and then they get to stick around and watch the rest of the fight. It sucks that it's like that
1:17:49
And it just kind of makes people not want to make the big journey
1:17:55
just for the one little two seconds that you get to be in the apex
1:17:59
Fair enough. But yeah, in the arenas, people get to come and sit and watch the entire show, obviously
1:18:08
Yeah. So, yeah, it's really cool that we're getting this big main event in ATL
1:18:14
If I wasn't in fight camp, I'd go. And you have Kamaru Usman versus Joaquin Buckley as the main event
1:18:23
Who do you have winning this one? Yeah, I do too. I think he just did everything he needed to do in order to beat Usman to Colby
1:18:34
I think Colby's going to, I mean, I think Usman's going to be a much tougher challenge
1:18:38
but if he can just do the same thing in a better fashion
1:18:42
just, you know, stick with it, I think he's going to find that button and hit him
1:18:47
And he showed us some of his secret moves, too. I feel like that one that he showed us
1:18:52
when we interviewed Buckley before. That'll land. I feel like that'll land on Usman
1:18:57
We can't tell you what it is, but. But you just wait. I'm sure he'll do it
1:19:01
It's in the leg department. Yeah, he calls his shots. So, you know, if he showed us something he's been working on
1:19:07
he will execute it. And he wanted to do it to Colby, but we didn't see him do it in that fight
1:19:13
But there's a sneaky one coming for Usman if he's not ready
1:19:18
So I really like that fight. I think Buckley can win it by KO, if not just by just overpowering decision
1:19:26
just hitting him more often than Usman's able to hit him. I feel like who Buckley has become as a fighter is just very well-rounded
1:19:34
very pressure fighter, very high volume, and I think that that's a lot for everybody in the division
1:19:41
Yeah, and then just the levels that he changes when he attacks too
1:19:47
Like he makes you flinch so much before he actually pulls the trigger
1:19:52
and lands the big one, and the rhythm that he changes up too
1:19:57
is just really hard to gauge. I feel like if you're in front of Buckley, you're flinching a lot before you actually get hit
1:20:03
And those surprising ones are the ones that really, like, wobble you. So, yeah, I like what he's been doing in the striking department
1:20:10
I love that his wrestling, you see it a little more each fight
1:20:14
Like, I feel like he has it, but he just doesn't want to show more than he needs to
1:20:19
But every fight, he shows you a little bit more. And, yeah, I'm really excited about this one
1:20:23
What about Nama Eunice versus Maverick? I'm still going with our girl, Rose. Yeah
1:20:28
I know Miranda's super tough. She's well-rounded. She looks strong. Farm girl strong
1:20:35
Yes, she does. I just, I think Rose is a precision striker
1:20:40
and I think that she can stay on the outside. I think Miranda is probably, you know, physical like Aaron in a way
1:20:50
but I don't know if her takedowns are as good as Aaron. So I think Rose will be able to keep it on the feet
1:20:55
Okay. I think Maverick probably has a good blast. I think she's good at getting to the fence and getting takedowns from there too
1:21:05
And that's kind of what she says. She believes, and they've been training together
1:21:10
I was going to say, aren't they training partners? Yes, they've been training together for years, she said
1:21:14
And I think her assessment of it is that Rose wins in the striking department
1:21:20
She wins in the grappling. So I'm wondering what that looks like. I'm imagining that Miranda just has really heavy top pressure
1:21:27
I feel like she can smash real good. And someone like Rose who's a little more gangly, a little more long
1:21:34
it's easier to smash them down and stay on top than someone who is more your size
1:21:42
And that's the thing that people worry about with people who like to play on their back
1:21:49
but they have that body type where it's like if they're not getting you in a submission you're
1:21:55
passing and you're keeping their limbs pinned to the ground and it's hard to kind of regard and get
1:22:01
back up to your feet so yeah i i think this is gonna be a fun one i i think i have rose too i i
1:22:06
like what i like that uh miranda is already anticipating not winning the striking that's a
1:22:13
weird one so it's like okay well you kind of you kind of showed your hand there but at the same time
1:22:18
Like she's going to be determined to get to that spot where she feels comfortable
1:22:22
She absolutely through training with somebody, you know, your path to victory You you had success You not had success You know the adjustments to make So I believe that both ladies have road maps to the way that they going to win
1:22:37
Yeah, for sure. Are you making a pick? You said rose, right? I did. Via what
1:22:41
Do you, are you just going to say rose or do you want to do a method
1:22:47
A method of winning? A method? A decision? Decision. I love the decision
1:22:52
Decision. It's the safest route. Yeah. Moving down, we have Andre Petroski versus Edmund Shabazian
1:23:03
So I'm picking Petroski in this one. Oh, yeah? I don't know much about Petroski
1:23:08
He's wrestle, grapple heavy. Big, powerful guy. Always gets that takedown. And Edmund Shabazian has great striking and not the best grappling
1:23:22
Yeah. I think I'll go Edmund. He just got a KO. He's kind of on the, excuse me, he's kind of like, you know
1:23:31
filling himself again. So I'll go Edmund for this just because I don't know anything about Petruski
1:23:38
Well, he fought in CFFC, so I had a little like a, you know
1:23:42
bird's eye view to some of his fights. And I've been paying attention to him since he got in the UFC
1:23:48
Nice. He is. Who else we got? Cody Garbrandt. Oh, and Ronnie Barcelos
1:23:55
So we saw Barcelos fight Peyton at 311 in L.A. We had a front row seat and we were sitting right behind his management
1:24:05
Oh, what was his management saying? They were really excited for him because he took out a young, hot prospect
1:24:13
Yeah, Ronnie, I've always been hot on this guy. I think he got a couple tough matchups
1:24:19
And so people haven't really given him the respect that he deserves
1:24:23
But like he is just good everywhere. He's a handful. He's so good at like his striking is really good
1:24:30
He has like that nice, like stiff, like Muay Thai style of striking where the leg kicks are hard
1:24:36
The punches are hard. But then he also has really good sweeps in the clinch
1:24:41
Like his foot sweeps are like you got to watch it back three times to realize how he got the guy to the floor
1:24:47
And he just jumps on. him after he gets it so like rione uh barcelos i i like this fight for him i think cody garnbrand
1:24:55
is a little easier to predict where he's gonna be nowadays like uh you know he's he's uh probably
1:25:04
in the wane part of his career but but it's up to him you know like if he has a few good wins then
1:25:09
you don't know where cody can be after this but i think just recently we haven't seen him look as
1:25:16
as impressive as he did when he first came onto the scene so he still has all the tools he still
1:25:20
has all the makings it's just like you were saying it's just about putting them together yeah yeah but i i think i'm gonna go with uh ryan for this one i think he gets me get the decision
1:25:30
if anything and i think he could get a submission yeah i think so too but uh i think he'd get a
1:25:37
knockout like barcelos is he's a g man like i don't think uh you know people
1:25:42
really know who he is. I don't know if he doesn't speak English or something
1:25:46
but that's always my assumption when there's a guy who's just been grinding and nobody really is
1:25:52
paying attention to him. Yeah, it's possible. Or he's just really quiet. Like, what's his name
1:26:00
Batista. He's just like a really quiet guy. He's not making noise
1:26:05
Our boy Mansour, he's managed by Brian Sucker Punch, our same management he's taking on cody brundage so cody brundage i feel like he just he under delivers i
1:26:17
feel like he could fight so much better than he ends up showing his last one he had a good outing
1:26:23
um or a better outing than i think a lot of people thought but yeah i just i feel like he
1:26:32
hasn't been putting it together the way he potentially could well we will see what he
1:26:37
can do against Mansour. It's a good matchup for Mansour because whenever you get a
1:26:41
prospect who's knocking everyone out, who's undefeated, you put him up against
1:26:48
someone like Cody Brunden, who doesn't necessarily show up every time. You see what he can do with that guy
1:26:54
Mansour had a little bit of trouble in his last fight. We were there for that one as well
1:27:00
Or I was there for that one. Was I? Was that Seattle
1:27:06
Yeah, I went to the Seattle fight after my fight. I was trying to show Mick that I was unhurt
1:27:11
and my nose wasn't broken. So I went to Seattle. You could have just sent him a selfie
1:27:17
No, he had to see it in person. He had to touch it and move it
1:27:21
around. Did he touch it? No, but I wanted him to. I should have made him. I bet he would have liked that
1:27:25
His wife was there. Who cares? He's like, don't touch that girl's nose
1:27:31
I'm sure she's used to it right now. Like, look at it! It's fine. Book the fight. Sure, she's had a front
1:27:37
road seat to give me the last brazilian so yeah i was there for that one and um and so he had a
1:27:44
little bit of trouble in that fight but he was able to turn around and get the ko in the second
1:27:49
round so i i like that he had a little bit of uh adversity in his last one i feel like we're just
1:27:56
gonna see a much better version of him this time out like he's one of those guys who who don't just
1:28:02
coast on a win. He yzes every bet. I want to make sure that the walkout is like this
1:28:10
And I want to make sure that I fix this thing and that thing and that thing. Even though I just demolished the guy
1:28:15
I think his approach to fighting is going to lead him to have a really good showing on this one
1:28:23
Cool. Yeah. And then we got a bunch of other fights too. But that's the main card
1:28:28
So it should be a fun night of fights. Hopefully everyone shows up and makes weight and we don't have any craziness going on
1:28:39
Oh, Vanessa Dimopoulos, the strawweight, is moving up to fight Jamie Lynn Horth
1:28:44
Being a company girl. Yeah, yeah. Showing up, taking one for the team
1:28:49
She was supposed to fight Teresa Blada, but you said she had a staffing infection
1:28:55
I'm pretty sure that's what I read if I remember correctly. I'm pretty sure that that's why she's
1:29:00
stepping in. There was a skin issue. Gross. That sucks. Yeah. So and a bunch of other fun
1:29:08
fights too. Phillip Rose versus Inglisa. Ricky Simone versus Charles Jorday. Oh my goodness. Why is that on the
1:29:16
prelim? What the heck? Oh man. We got Cody Durden. We just mentioned
1:29:20
him versus Jose Ochoa. Oh Malcolm Wellmaker. Remember that kid he quit his job he was not a well maker he was a welder he quit his job and now he's facing
1:29:33
chris motino that kid that took all the damage and now he's stepping up on another short notice
1:29:39
yeah they hate him oh well at least he's getting paid he's getting paid whatever you can't you can't
1:29:46
you can't uh you know hate him too much uh michael kiesa is fighting court mcgee it was funny um
1:29:54
I was like, oh, I bet Michael Chiesa has another fight right now
1:29:59
That's why. He hasn't been around. And Adam's like, who's he fighting? Court McGree
1:30:03
More than he was. Ah, that's so funny. It's just one of those things where you have
1:30:08
and we've talked about this before, you like when people fight the people in their generation of fights
1:30:14
Like, they're both, like, tough guys from a similar number of tough
1:30:18
if not the same one. So, yeah, I appreciate these fights. Like, I like it
1:30:25
I hate when you got to have the older dogs fight the younger dogs
1:30:29
And then unfortunately one of the dogs got to get put down
1:30:33
So I prefer this. And then you got Paul Craig versus Rodolfo Bellato
1:30:40
It's been rescheduled after his herpes scare. Hopefully he has cleared up
1:30:45
He's fine. He's been on medication. Man, that sucks. Yeah. That really sucks
1:30:50
But I'm glad that they were able to hop on this card so close to when they were supposed to fight
1:30:54
Yeah. Only a couple weeks away. So yeah, it should be a fun night of fights
1:30:59
Well, this has been an XL episode of Two Straws. I know
1:31:05
Hopefully our camera didn't stop. Any of my links. I know. There's so much to talk about
1:31:09
I always have so many like side note topic. No, it's been too long
1:31:13
You want to just say one real quick? Okay. Would. No. Question
1:31:18
Oh. Would you quit MMA for love? Oh, yeah. I saw this
1:31:25
So Clarissa Shields, she got on Ariel Helwani's podcast and was like, hey, I'm not doing MMA anymore
1:31:32
And personally, I feel like the first answers were the real answers
1:31:37
She was just like, it's too hard. I broke my arm twice
1:31:41
Like, there's a lot. I couldn't do anything else when I was doing MMA
1:31:45
Like, I would have to focus on MMA in order to be really good at it for a few years
1:31:51
But then she also said her boyfriend didn't want her doing it. So when I, back in the day, like years and years when I was a young fighter, this subject came up
1:32:03
I met somebody like that was also a fighter and then like it came up Like would you if I didn want you to continue fighting would you I was like like are we getting married Are we having children Like what the plan here I not
1:32:18
just going to like consider even entertain this question unless like we have a future to build
1:32:24
upon. Um, it's, it is kind of a strange thing, but I think it's, it's different for, for females
1:32:30
you know? Yeah. They're, they're the ones that bear children. They're the ones that, you know
1:32:34
are usually the ones taking care of the children in their early lives
1:32:37
So it's a little bit more challenging of a decision on the women's side
1:32:42
I think so. But then also on the men's side, like if you have talent
1:32:46
but you're not making any money, then the women have to support you if you're in a relationship, you know
1:32:52
like you need a sugar mama in order to get to the point
1:32:57
where you can kind of make money on your contender series debut
1:33:01
so you can kind of almost make minimum wage in your first fight in the UFC
1:33:08
And then hopefully if you win that fight and then you're able to renegotiate your contract
1:33:13
after winning a few more fights, you can maybe support your family with a contract
1:33:18
So it's kind of bad on both sides because we got three kids
1:33:22
I always wonder how people with kids are able to afford that
1:33:27
while trying to also chase their dream of becoming a fighter. Because I'm like, dude, you're an amateur fighter and you got three kids
1:33:34
Like, how are you paying for this? What ends up happening is one person is the supporter and the cheerleader and the other is the breadwinner
1:33:45
Or you're doing both. I feel like that's the dynamic. Or you're doing both and then that's really hard, too
1:33:49
That's hard. Hopefully there's, you know, family stepping and all that stuff. But, you know, the thing that Clarissa was explaining is that her boyfriend, her mans
1:34:03
I think they're engaged. Probably. I think that it's serious. Like, it wasn't just some puppy love thing
1:34:11
Yeah. She seems like she's in a very committed, loving space. Yeah, they're cute
1:34:16
And she decided to step away from MMA. and she said that even her man has a little bit of an issue with her like boxing like he doesn like to watch it like yeah it hard it is very hard i bet she wouldn stop boxing i don think so i bet she wouldn stop i don think so man i don think so see there a difference when someone that you love asks you
1:34:36
to stop doing something that you've already considered about it it's fine you know what
1:34:41
that's it's fine it's different it's really different it's like when uh someone calls you
1:34:47
and you like made all these big plans, but you're like just tired and you're like
1:34:52
ah, but I made all these plans. And then your friend calls and you're like, hey, I can't make it
1:34:56
You're like, what? Oh, no. Say it as in so. I'm like, ah
1:35:03
Already in your robe. No, I would hate to not go to wrestling class
1:35:09
three times a week. Oh, darn it. You're saying I can't get choked out tomorrow
1:35:15
Girls, you see? Oh, man, I was really looking forward to getting choked out
1:35:20
You owe me, by the way. Five-stripe black belt that's here to help me train for my next fight
1:35:26
I couldn't wait. You're going to make this up to me. Yeah. I love that, though
1:35:32
I love that she pretended that he was the reason. That's a veteran move right there
1:35:37
That's a veteran female move. Damn straight. I quit this dream for you, honey
1:35:42
She can hold that over his head for the rest of their relationship. Good job, Clarissa
1:35:46
I applaud you. Well done. All right. Well, oh, shit. Oh, my God
1:35:54
