Hi
0:07
It took me a sec to get situated. All right. It's early and it's a little gloomy, so it just kind of takes the brain a little bit to
0:16
catch up. You can say we're seizing the day. We are. I don't get it
0:26
I'm not awake yet. Oh, no. I haven't had my coffee yet
0:30
What did I miss? Well, what we all missed was a main event that was supposed to go down last night
0:38
Oh, seizing. Seizing! If I had had my espresso. We're supposed to brush over it so I don't look like as much of a dick as I do now
0:51
I feel like we just need to own who we are and what we do
0:56
Everybody needs. We're trash people. We are who we are. We're flawed individuals
1:03
You can't go through trauma without laughing at it. Exactly. That's always been my motto, my family's motto
1:12
dealing with things that are unfortunate. You've got to make fun of it
1:17
Exactly. Otherwise, you just go into a depression and take yourself too seriously
1:22
Exactly. It's for the better of everyone. But, dude, how the funk
1:28
Oh, my goodness. Oh, my God. Can you imagine? Oh, my goodness
1:32
Poor Erin. And, you know, I was actually surprised. And I think depending on the platform you're looking at
1:41
the comments were giving off all these different vibes. But I was actually surprised at the Instagram comments
1:49
They were furious with Erin for calling her unprofessional. I know. You saw that, right
1:54
Oh, I was, I normally don't look at comments when it has anything to do with me
2:00
Oh, yeah, yeah, don't do that. I love looking at comments about other people
2:05
But I will go all the way up and down. Don't include me in the drama, but I'm here for it
2:11
Yes, yes. Oh, my God. There was a lot of people who were mad at Erin's immediate reaction
2:21
And first of all, it's her immediate reaction. she is backstage she's ready to punch the girl in the face and then she gets told to say words
2:30
about her instead like of course you're not gonna pull your punches when you're verbally
2:35
discussing how frustrated you are with the situation no it's it's an unprecedented situation
2:41
she had no idea what was going on she heard bits and pieces so she is in real time formulating her
2:49
thoughts and her feelings and it's a lot it's very overwhelming it was kind of a roller coaster
2:54
to get to the fight yeah and then fight week was again a lot of a turmoil yeah and and then a lot
3:02
of animosity a lot of uh you know shit talk back and forth not really from erin's side but macy
3:09
almost seemed like she had a chip on her shoulder the entire weekend in her press conferences when
3:15
she's talking about erring calling her one-dimensional and like yeah these are great
3:20
build-ups to a fight but then if you can't make weight if you uh you know got a new enhancement
3:28
that adds a little extra pound on you and then you can't cut it and then when you're not able to
3:34
health healthfully make it out to the ring it does give you like the feeling of something
3:43
unprofessional is happening like there is a lack of discipline you know and and discipline is really
3:49
a thing this isn't a reaction to her having a seizure in nothing else this is a reaction to
3:56
the build-up of her not being healthy enough to compete and that happens weeks before months before
4:03
you step in the cage you have to get your heart rate up you have to burn the fat you have to like
4:09
be in shape you have to make sure that you're able to slowly cut the weight so that you're not
4:15
doing it all the night before and you'll be able to rehydrate in a proper way and if this was her
4:22
first time having a weight miss if this was her first time you know not being able to make it to
4:28
the fight then it'd be a different story yeah Aaron Blanchfield would look like more of an
4:34
asshole for having this reaction but because she has habitually messed up not made it to the fight
4:41
gotten injured being having health issues all these other things it feels like there's something
4:47
that she isn't doing and it seems like like you know you hear through the grapevine through
4:53
different people it seems like there's a lack of discipline it it would seem that way especially
4:59
with the weight issue. Now the medical issue, I, I don't know all of her medical issues. Um
5:05
I heard the broadcasting kind of, um, candidly, but honestly speaking, just saying that there's
5:11
a lot that she's been going through. Um, if it was in fact a seizure, that's something that you
5:17
really cannot control when exactly that happens. And I really, I do hope that she's okay. And I
5:25
hope that it wasn't as serious as something like that. But everything else leading up to that point
5:33
I feel like could have been navigated a lot better. And I think that's where the frustration
5:38
from Aaron comes from. It's very frustrating to be, you know, waiting to walk out and then a fight
5:44
doesn't happen. It's just, there's a lot of buildup. There's a lot of emotion. I think she's
5:48
handling the best way that she can with the information that she has. So we'll see what
5:54
unfolds i feel like we'll get more information on monday with the mma news circuit yeah but it's
6:01
just it's a lot there's a lot of buildup a lot that goes into a fight and to not have that uh
6:06
climactic end is it's frustrating yeah and uh apparently uh valentina was in the building yes
6:14
and the apex she wasn't even there to be seen she just wanted to scope the action she wanted to
6:20
check out her competition and for that information to come through i'm sure she knew that beforehand
6:28
um knowing this is going to be a big moment she's going to be able to right the wrong of the manan
6:34
fiore fight um get a big win over someone she probably felt really confident against
6:40
and then that didn't happen um yeah i i don't blame her for not wanting to give her the
6:46
opportunity to fight her again. We'll see how the UFC handles this though because, you know
6:52
there's some people who get the Armin Sarukian treatment and then there's some people who
6:58
just are allowed to continue to get the O'Malley treatment. Yeah, yeah. They get these
7:04
big opportunities over and over again and, you know, who knows why
7:13
There are the chosen ones. We know. There are chosen ones. We're haters
7:17
Well, you know. We've seen a lot. We've had a bird's eye view
7:24
We been through it over and over again To all of the things and the ins and outs that other people are not privy to So you know you just come a little you become a little you know
7:36
Jaded? Jaded. Yes. But we can laugh about it. Yes, yes. I put extra salt in my coffee today just to talk about this situation
7:49
What did you think about the criticism of her? her I actually wore my uh your boobies I don't have the full set like uh when I'm in fight week
8:01
I have my push-up bra but then I also have my nude boobs oh yeah have you seen the commercial for
8:07
yes the little sticky so it's like you don't have to worry about doing something and then it pops out
8:14
it's like stuck on there it gives you a nice big lift makes you look like you got some enhancements
8:20
but the great thing is when you cut weight you can take them off yeah they're not they're not
8:25
weighing you down they're not adding those extra ounces that you really didn't need or want to add
8:31
to your physique um i just have embraced like the flat chested life i don't i don't even need to
8:37
wear a bra i just i'm drawless right now that's great you can see some nips
8:42
It's just, so it's, if you're going to make that decision while you are still competing
8:55
you need to compensate for those by doing some extra cardio, by doing some extra work
9:04
Drinking less milk. Yes. I know that it was like an easy shot to take at her because of the weight mess and, you know, a noticeable difference in what she looks like now
9:21
Whether she had, you know, whatever she chose to do was her decision
9:26
And it was also something that needed to be calculated and taken into consideration
9:32
I think this is the first time that I've seen her with these improvements
9:36
So maybe it was just a miscalculation on her part. Maybe she didn't realize how it would affect the weight cut
9:43
Maybe she didn't, you know, whatever. But yeah, I think it was an easy shot to take at her just along with everything else that was going on leading up to the fight
9:57
I think that. Yeah, it was just. It was what it was
10:03
It was an easy shot, but it was valid. And I think, you know, I sent you that one post and I was kind of happy that they took it down because it was like, is this the reason why she missed weight
10:15
And it was like a picture of like her previous weigh in and then the weigh in that happened the other day
10:23
And obviously the emphasis was on the size of her boobs. And it was just like, even though it's something that people are talking about, it was still really distasteful
10:35
Yeah. Well, when one went away, many others popped up. Yeah, that's true
10:42
Just like a gray hair. Yeah, well, it was verdict.com. So I was like, come on, guys
10:49
Like, you're supposed to be the good guys. You're better than that. Yeah, yeah
10:53
So let's have the fighters back. But, I mean, yes, if she did have enhancements, it can affect the weight cut, and that needs to be addressed during fight camp
11:04
Yeah. And, you know, this is the first time she's had enhancements, but she did move up from straw weight
11:12
Because she was having weight issues. Yeah, and I remember having a conversation with her, and she was kind of pissed about it
11:19
She's like, yeah, I don't know why they made me move up from straw weight
11:23
And I'm looking at her and I'm like, girl, you're big. Like, you are a thick girl and you're not even like mid-20s yet
11:34
Like, you're still growing. You're still putting on that woman weight. Like, it's okay
11:39
Do you think a move up in weight would be a good idea for her
11:44
She might be a bit short for the weight class, but I do think like, you know
11:50
It's a fast track to success. And honestly, she is a skilled fighter
11:55
Like, what she's done in her fights, she gives people trouble. She's very tenacious, kind of like a Juliana Pena
12:04
Yes. With that kind of just ferocity inside the cage. Yeah, a little better boxing, I'd say
12:12
Angela, we'll get to it. Yeah, but the power is there. The just sharpshooter-ness is there
12:20
And she's able to do a little bit of everything. She's very physical. Yeah
12:24
So, I mean, it could, but I feel like maybe we just see what happens at flyweight because, again, you're dealing with an even more established body type in that weight class at 135
12:38
So maybe just see how it goes. Maybe get her health back in order and make those adjustments that she needs to make for the weight cut
12:46
what i wonder is why does the ufc love pushing people who can't fight more than once every year
12:59
and a half you know what i mean because like it's been a trend i'm trying to think of who else but
13:04
like you know with the omali thing he was out the entire time he lost the belt and now he's getting
13:10
an immediate rematch um after after uh marab has already defended um there's been other people
13:19
where it's like you get these big opportunities just because you've been out of the scene you come
13:24
back and people only remember that knockout that you had two or three years ago and they're like
13:29
oh yeah they're still doing the same thing i think there's something about and and don't i don't want
13:35
to sound shady or offensive, but there's something about low-hanging fruit with the media
13:41
Like people that have a lot of buzz coming off of the Contender Series, they're like
13:45
the next big thing. And they really push that. If Macy was very exciting on the Contender Series and then coming into the UFC, they
13:51
give her a lot of opportunities. There's something about the general population and the fans that like somebody because of
14:00
these big knockouts, these, you know, it creates buzz on them. and then they just kind of like say, okay, go
14:06
We're going to build off of this person, and we're really going to bank on all those things. Sometimes it plays out
14:11
Sometimes it doesn't, like with the Paige and Sage kind of thing. But as long as they give them opportunities and they keep winning
14:19
they're going to keep pushing them because it's easier to push. Yeah
14:23
I feel kind of bad for Miranda Maverick. I was able to talk to her the other day on Sirius
14:32
Cheater. Huh? You're such a cheater. You're cheating on me. I know
14:36
They pay me. Luckily, I only cheat on you when they pay me, which is, you know
14:47
Fine, I guess. Basically an escort. But she reminded us that she had a very close fight Well it wasn even really close it was when you look at the media scores they all scored it for maverick and i totally forgot about this fight but this
15:08
it's another one of these things where you feel like the person who has the bigger media push or
15:15
the bigger online persona or whatever they get these wins over people who are a little more quiet
15:21
a little more like grinding and fighting more often. So, yeah, it's unfortunate that sometimes the people
15:31
who have been grinding and working hard and been disciplined don't get the same opportunities that these other people do
15:39
But, you know, if Macy doesn't learn from these faux pas that keep happening with her and, like, learn to just button down
15:50
and get her health in order and come back, you know, stronger
15:56
then she might fumble an opportunity that most fighters would kill for. Yeah
16:03
I mean, I know that it can be frustrating for people that don't get those opportunities
16:11
that they see other people getting. But again, we have to remember, like, there is something to grinding along
16:18
and kind of earning that spot. And there is just a lot of beauty in the process
16:25
And it's easy to get frustrated. I totally understand that I've been there. But there is a plan and a path
16:33
And I think if people look back on it, they can see how everything worked out perfectly for them
16:38
Yeah. So I think that person might be Blanchfield. She seems to have a really good head on her shoulders right now
16:46
She's not trying to rush into a fight next week or call people out and maybe mess up the opportunity she has being ranked number four and, you know, being fresh, not having to fight, but kind of bypassing the barber fight
17:03
What do you think's next for her? I mean, I'd like to see her fight Grasso
17:07
That would be fun. I think that would be a fun one. That would be good for Grasso, too
17:12
Yeah. Good opportunity. Yeah, I think that that would be a really fun matchup. You could also, yeah, I want to see her fighting those top five
17:22
You know, she's ranked number four. Grasso's number three. We obviously have Manon that just dropped her title contention
17:29
and then we have Natalia Silva who's on deck. I think it would just make sense to fight Alexa Grasso
17:36
I think that'd be a really good matchup. Yeah, and then you're not squandering the opportunity
17:41
that Natalia Silva kind of earned by just dismantling Grasso in that fight
17:48
and having such a huge streak in her division, which is pretty hard to do nowadays at flyweight
17:55
Like, it's hard to string together all those wins. That's why we were so high on Blanchfield and Manon before they fought and lost
18:04
So it's going to be an exciting one to see Natalia Silva maybe get that shot
18:08
if Whaley doesn't jump the line. And then, yeah, I agree. I really like the Grosso fight
18:15
I think that would be the most fun, exciting one. We also have UFC Noche coming up, which is, how far away is that
18:24
Is that at least like eight weeks? I think it's a couple months
18:29
Let me see. But that would be a dope fight for UFC Noche this year
18:36
And then speaking of chaining wins together, Jasmine Desduvicious, who also just fought recently on the Canada card
18:44
It's September, so we got lots of time. Oh, they could totally make that happen
18:48
Yeah, that would be great. Erin, call it out. Grasso, you. UFC Noche
18:54
Boom. Boom. Do it. Yes. But, yes, continue. Jasmine Desduvicious. She has been grinding along, and she's one of those kind of quiet workers
19:08
that has definitely been grinding along, making a name for herself. I think you could, even though she's ranked number six
19:16
and I'd like to see Erin keep climbing that ladder, I feel like that would also be a good match to make
19:23
Yeah, I agree. That finish over Andrade was pretty impressive. So I think if she can, I think she's earned the opportunity
19:33
to fight somebody in the top five. So it's not like it would be a big step back for Blanchfield
19:40
So, yeah, I agree, too. That would be a fun one. Well, we actually got to watch a fight
19:49
Our, what do you call it? Our makeshift main event was actually pretty good, you know
19:57
It was good. I love Gamrot. He's so fun. He and I, I think he is such a great example of how to be dominant and wrestling and, and not be boring and keep moving people around. Like he's constantly moving people striking. He's very creative with his strikes, you know, throwing the, the kicks, the knees, the punches, and then not losing control of his opponent. I just, I love his grappling for MMA
20:28
Yeah, I mean, so we're students of the sport. I can understand that the average person watching will be like
20:37
what the is this? You know, like that first round where he just has him pushed up against the fence
20:42
and he's kicking him and not letting Ludovic Klein get back up
20:47
Like I can understand a casual fan just being like, oh, this is boring
20:52
But I was very impressed. I was super impressed. I was like, yo, he is kicking him in the calf to sit him down on his butt and pull him down to the ground
21:03
And then no matter how good Klein's get-ups were, he was able to find a way to just smash him and shut him down
21:09
I thought it was a great fight. And at the end, you saw Ludovic Klein kind of land a little bit on him
21:17
He had this really sneaky left kick that would just flick up there
21:23
Come over the guard and tag him nicely. no it was nice gamrott's like wrestler neck kept him from getting hurt by it because
21:30
you ever see something like it kicked in the neck and it just bounces off like that that's what
21:36
happened i'm like oh it's like the kick didn't even happen just bounced off of his wrestler neck
21:41
but uh yeah it was a really good fight it looked like klein was able to like rock him a tiny bit
21:48
but then you never know if it was just like him shooting or him changing level or if he actually
21:53
wobbled on his legs. That would happen a lot with, what was his name
21:59
Mikhaev a lot. Like he would get hit and you're like, oh, he got hurt
22:03
But he's just doing that like sit down to the butt takedown
22:07
Like that sit down to the butt level change. Yeah, he has that Asian squat, Asian knees
22:15
They're like Megan knees, but better. I barely do that these days
22:21
Excuse me. Still got a bit of a head cold. But yeah Matus Gamrat he was really aggressive really fun to watch And Ludovic Klein he one of these kind of lesser knowns
22:35
But anytime I'm looking up somebody and I'm like, oh, who's he fought
22:39
They've always lost to Ludovic Klein. I'm like, who is this guy
22:43
Like anytime you get a kind of a newcomer or whatever, he's taken out Roosevelt Roberts, Tiago Moses, Ignacio Baja Mondas
22:54
That was the one where I was just like, who is this guy that beat him
22:58
Because he's on a tear right now. So, yeah, this wasn't an easy feat to get ahead of this guy
23:05
And it was also a big risk to take fighting someone with such a good streak
23:12
who wasn't ranked and you're ranked number seven. Yeah, I agree. I don't know that it does anything for him on the rankings
23:22
but it was a good fight. I think it also we also saw an improvement in Gamrot striking against a very sharp striker
23:30
It was it was a risky fight, but he he pushed forward
23:34
He found a way to win. Yeah. Did you watch his press conference? No, he was feeling himself
23:42
Oh, was he? Yeah. So I don't know if he always spoke English, but he was like, you know, kind of he was speaking English and he was being pretty funny
23:51
Like, I'm like, oh, was it funny or was it just his way of wording things together
23:58
He had he's a foreigner. Well, that but he also had this line where he was talking about fighting Benil Darush
24:06
And he was like, yeah, Benil Darush had the opportunity to fight me when he lost an opponent
24:13
I was going to show up short notice and then he ended up picking someone else
24:17
So he said his nickname is God of War, but his nickname should be God of staying comfortable
24:24
And I'm like, oh, he's shady. Oh, okay. Okay, Mr. Gamrat. Oh, it was like, it was really funny
24:35
But yeah, he was just kind of showing his personality a little bit
24:39
And I'm like, okay, this is what we need from this guy because he's somebody that no one wants to fight
24:45
You look at someone like Marab who kind of had that same build where no one wanted to fight him
24:51
But then all of a sudden he started showing his personality. And people forgave him for, you know, beating Aldo
24:58
And forgave him for just smothering the competition. And they enjoyed just Marab as a fighter
25:06
You know, I was watching some of Marab's old fights. I didn't realize that he got his hairline fixed
25:12
Oh, really? I did not notice this. Oh, okay. I was like, who's that
25:18
And I was like, wait, that is. That's so funny. I didn't know that either
25:23
Yes. He did it very discreetly. Maybe that's where this extra bout of confidence comes from
25:29
Right? It's like getting a dick enlargement. It's like getting into boob job
25:33
Yes. All of a sudden you're extra spicy when it comes to the press conferences
25:40
Man, if I had boobs, watch out. Dude, I saw it. I saw it when we did our Final Fantasy VII cosplay
25:51
Every once in a while. I still have the chest plate. Yes, yes
25:55
And I think it was that shirt, too. Every once in a while, I think about it
25:59
I think you were wearing that shirt, too. It was different. It was dressed up
26:04
Yeah, it looked a little different with the enhancements. But Jessica dressed up as Tifa, and I was Barrett, of course
26:11
because I'm very color-conscious when I cosplay. But it was really good because Jess had this huge push-up bra that was mostly air
26:24
But it looked really good on you. It looked really good. You fit huge tits
26:29
Not everybody can wear huge tits. It's my swimmer shoulders. Yeah, I love it
26:36
Frames it nicely. I love that, yeah. Maybe I'll look into a boob job. Hey
26:41
I mean, I'm retired, so. If you want to get into commentating and doing like the middle of the ring thing, like I feel like I feel like it's required
26:51
Yeah, you got to be able to go. Tell me more about your strategy
27:02
I know what I'm Googling this week. Yeah, just do it somewhere reputable
27:07
Don't go anywhere shady. Oh, go to TJ. Oh, my God. sorry no i've i've seen some suspicious looking augmentations from other countries
27:18
oh no yeah they'll work on it you want to see like the 10 years later 20 years later like those
27:26
kind of reviews you don't want to get some saggy uh cement boobs no no no we want buoyancy
27:35
It's like when you go to one of the regular gyms and they have a boxing bag
27:42
And you hit the bottom of it and it's just hard. Oh, yeah. That's the equivalent of a bad boob job
27:48
We don't need that. A bad BBL. It settles. It was great when it happened
27:55
But then it just, the age and wear and tear just messed it up
28:00
We don't need that. No. Well, we had like a pretty random co-main event since the Barbara fight
28:08
So I caught up with the fights after I heard about the main event ending
28:13
because I couldn't sit through hours of the same commercial over and over again
28:22
So I was like, I'm going to, this doesn't have a lot of fights that I actually care about
28:26
So I'm just going to rewatch the ones that I, but it actually did
28:30
She doesn't care about them. I mean, it actually did. Like, I was excited for Blanchfield Barber
28:36
I was excited for the Gamrot fight. I was excited for Jacoby, Catelyn
28:41
Like, most of them I wanted to watch. I just didn't want to have to sit through all the commercials in order to watch it
28:48
But, of course, the spoiler popped up before I could sit down and watch all the fights
28:53
So how did it feel going from the Gamrot fight to waiting for Barbara and Blanchfield to walk out
29:01
I was scrolling on my phone during the commercials because no. Because you didn't want to watch Let's Go Toast
29:09
I was like, I knew that, you know, the broadcast team would like take me out of my like little scrolling thing
29:13
Yeah, they'd let you know they were back. And then all of a sudden I'm like listening and I'm like, what did they just say
29:20
Yeah. She's not coming out? I was like, no. I threw my phone to the side and I was like, wow, they have no information
29:29
and they are really struggling to have someone to talk about to fill this airtime. I was like, I feel bad for them
29:33
DC was so funny. He was just like, he wore every emotion on his shoulder
29:40
Thank goodness Laura held it down. She was like, I got this
29:44
She was like, listen, guys. This is what happens with Barbara sometimes
29:51
She has health issues. And everyone's just like staring at her cleavage like
29:57
all right, Laura, whatever you say. But yeah, no. It was really funny, like, seeing that whole thing unfold
30:03
because you can tell they were trying to save the fight. Yeah, and I'm getting text messages, and then I started getting text messages
30:08
and they're like, what do you think happened? And I'm like, I don't know
30:13
I'm like, obviously something that required somebody to call a doctor. Yeah, so this actually happened before a few times
30:23
but it was the first time it happened in a main event, I think, like right before they walked out
30:28
But I remember, I forget, it was Trevin Giles who was actually supposed to be on this card too
30:35
He was supposed to fight, who was it? I wrote it down. He was supposed to fight Kevin Holland
30:42
And Kevin Holland was in the ring waiting for Giles to walk out or vice versa
30:48
And he didn't walk out. He actually fainted right before he walked out
30:54
I don't remember that. Yeah, it was a long time ago. It was like 2021 or something. But yeah, and there was a couple other ones
31:00
There was another one where a guy was like in the cage
31:05
shadow boxing, getting ready to fight, and then his opponent never came out to the cage
31:11
And so this is something that happens. And again, we don't want to like take away from the seriousness of the situation
31:20
Like this is definitely something that needed to happen. It wasn't just Barber going, oh, I don't feel like fighting today
31:29
But, yeah, it just never happened in the main event, I think
31:32
or at least not in recent memory. So, yeah, that was pretty wild
31:38
But instead of Gamrot being the co-main, we had Rameez Brahami versus Billy Ray Goff
31:49
So I don't remember Rameez Brahami at all. But he is so cute
31:56
Did you see him halfway over the fence? Like, it was like a Romeo and Juliet moment
32:02
And he's professing his feelings and his appreciation to DC. It was adorable
32:07
It was. And then, like, he shouts out Sean Shelby. And then they cut to Sean Shelby
32:13
And I swear, Shelby, I saw tears in your eyes. He's a suck
32:19
He was welling up. Oh, yeah. Oh, he's a sensitive Sam. He is
32:25
He is. He was feeling it. So I don't remember him, but I was looking at his topology
32:29
and he's had a lot of pullouts, injuries, just wasn't able to make it to the contender series
32:39
because he had to pull out for injury. Then he finally got the call, was able to fight a couple times
32:45
or a few times on the UFC, but then would win or lose
32:48
and then he'd get injured again and again. So this was a really big deal for him to be able to get this opportunity
32:57
And the entire card just got mixed and matched. This card was cursed
33:04
I feel like this card was just a chopped salad of all the people
33:09
who have had their fights canceled multiple times and was just finally trying to get their fight in this year
33:17
and then the fights get canceled again. You know what I mean? Like there were visa issues, there were weight misses
33:23
there were injuries, like a lot of mixing and matching. Luckily, these two guys were able to make the walk
33:30
And unfortunately for Billy Ray Goff, it was a very fast night for him
33:34
It was. How do you say his name? Braham? You just corrected me
33:41
I know, I know, and I just spaced out. He is Bra-imash. Brahami
33:48
Brahami. Brahami. Right. I'm sure they'll correct us. Brahami. Brahami came out, immediately put Goff on his, you know
33:59
pressured him up against the cage and started trying to force those takedowns. He took his back
34:03
He had him. Goff got up, tried to reverse it. He went for a takedown of his own, and that is when Brahami sunk in that guillotine
34:12
It was good. It was a nice elbow over, little C-grip action
34:17
It was super, super tight. Just a lot of constriction and forcing Goff to tap
34:23
Yeah, Goff tapped in the first bite, it looked like. It looked like he didn't realize he tapped
34:30
And then he made that elbow over adjustment again. Yeah, and then he was out
34:35
That was nasty. And I hate when the camera sits on the unconscious cross-eyed fighter that is just dead to the world
34:49
That shit is traumatizing every family member of poor Billy Ray Goff
34:55
You know it's going to be a highlight. Yeah, they're going to keep showing it
34:59
Just show the drop. The drop is good enough. You don't have to see the aftermath of him seething
35:08
He looked like he was having a seizure on the ground. It was nasty that they sat on that shot
35:15
I felt horrible because you could hear his family in the apex too
35:19
And I'm just like, oh, God, I hope he's not looking at the camera. Yeah, and now every time Brahami fights, that will be replayed
35:27
We're all somebody's highlight reel. Yeah, for sure. But that sucks. It's hard when the family's there
35:34
That's why I don't let my family come. Yeah, yeah. And I wonder why. I'm like, you really want to see that
35:38
I know. If that happens? No, I'll call you afterwards. Chill. We'll have dinner
35:45
We're not going to talk about the fight at dinner, but we'll have dinner
35:50
If you do, I'll stab you. We're having steak. The sharp knives will be out
35:59
Oh, man. Well, yeah, I loved his post-fight speech. I loved that, you know, he was able to get the bonus, it looks like
36:07
Yeah, performance of the night. So good for him. I really felt like a turning point for him in his career
36:15
and hope to see more of that in the future. Dustin Jacoby, too, speaking of turning points
36:21
he's on a two-knockout streak against these prospects coming in there, trying to spoil his show
36:29
He's been dropping them like crazy. And this one, it came off of a jab
36:34
Like a jab started it. I know. Oof. What a hard hitter
36:39
Like Dustin Jacoby. I wish my jab did that. Shit. Dude, if you were built like Jacoby
36:45
you wouldn't need a boob job. Like, you would be stacked, man
36:51
This dude, he's built like a stone picture. We call it a brick shit house
36:56
Yes, yes. Yes. Yeah, I said stone. I was looking for brick shithouse
37:03
But yeah, he is strong. He's big. Everything seems functional. Like there's nothing extra on him
37:10
And he looks natural too. Like I'm not saying that he looks like a lab rat or anything
37:16
But like that jab that he was able to hit him with was so nasty
37:21
Wobbled the mess out of Bruno Lopez. And then I was cracking up because he got him up against the fence and DC kept going he giving space Like he was he was doing kind of the coaching
37:35
And the corner was saying the same thing. It was hilarious. Yeah, you could hear everybody mic'd up yelling, he's giving space
37:42
But at the same time, I was like, just let him do it
37:46
Like he's fine. He'll get there. Fine. He's messing him up. Like, sometimes you get in that pocket and you just know that the whirlwind, you're going to win
37:58
Like, he was so wobbly on his feet. Like, he didn't have a lot of, like, you know, body core connection at that point
38:06
His feet were, he was literally just being held up by the fence, which is probably why everyone wanted him to have space
38:13
So he had space to fall down. But, yeah, Jacoby found it and it was a nasty, nasty finish
38:20
Yeah, Beltran gave Lopez all the chances to recover. Maybe too many
38:27
He loves violence. Look at him. I know. He loves it. I saw his post the other day, somebody getting shot
38:34
No. What? So Beltran's an ex-police officer. Yeah, yeah, right. And probably military too, right? Yeah
38:45
I'm not sure. But he's pretty outspoken about his points of views
38:51
And he posted a video of a police shooting an assailant and then giving commentary and support about how it was a good shot
39:02
Okay. Yeah. So he's all for the violence. Yeah, so he gives you a chance to come back
39:10
and that did not happen for poor Bruno Lopez. Some people were upset that Jacoby didn't get a bonus
39:19
I'm kind of upset, too. Why not? Yeah. I don't know. It was a weird one
39:23
Because, like, yeah, you only had a handful of fights. Maybe because they..
39:28
Well, yeah, they only had a handful of fights. There were, like, five. They should have had more money
39:33
They had plenty. More money left over. The card was definitely in the green
39:39
Yeah, they didn't have to pay Aunt Macy. That's, like, five bonuses right there. Sorry. Sorry
39:45
It's not fair. Is that rude? It's not fair. No, it's not rude at all
39:49
It's a fair assessment. Yeah, I'm a little sad about that, too
39:55
But good for Dustin, man. He's really putting his name back out there
40:02
Say something about his age. Hey, say something. I dare you. I dare you
40:07
He'll knock you out. Yeah. He will. But I love it. I love that he's coming in and upsetting all these kids
40:17
And I just want to keep seeing it happen. So we'll see. We'll see what else is next for Dustin Jacoby
40:23
And then a fight I was very annoyed about, Ketlyn Vieira versus Macy Chiazon
40:31
on. I wonder what is the difference between someone being asked to fight at a higher weight
40:40
class versus just showing up and taking 20% of their purse? Like, is it, do they call you and say
40:48
hey, this person isn't going to get anywhere close to 135. So if you decide to weigh in at 135
40:56
they're going to cancel your fight. It probably happened far enough out in fight week
41:01
to where it was a conversation well uh i was creeping on macy she asked on because she was uh
41:09
asking to come out and train with us so i'm like oh we're friends now so i was creeping on her
41:14
stories and she posted a picture of her on the scale at 138 and she goes hey i was ready to make
41:21
championship weight um this is all on ketlin we got the call and you know i'm still gonna fight
41:29
but I just want everyone to know that I was ready. Yeah. So I'm wondering how that happens, you know
41:37
Again, I think it's probably management got involved. It was far enough out to where that conversation happens
41:45
Otherwise, I don't know what the difference is between, because it happened with like Jose Aldo when he fought in Canada
41:54
Yeah. And again, that was like the night of the weight cut. Yeah
41:58
So I just wonder, is it just a matter of communication? I think it is
42:05
They just hit up the matchmakers? I think management got involved and probably smoothed things over
42:11
Yeah, it's not going to happen. Because it would have been nice for Macy to be able to get that 20% with the loss
42:19
It would have been nice for her to be able to do that. But at the same time, you want the fight to happen
42:25
and I think the commission wouldn't allow it to happen. Yeah, if it's nine pounds away from each other, then it won't happen
42:33
Yeah, yeah. So that's a shame that that happened. It definitely looked like Ketlyn was bigger and stronger
42:41
No, she big-girled her. You see, every time Macy got in on a single, on a takedown
42:46
she just butt-dragged and sat the weight down on her. It makes a difference
42:53
She was a weight bully in this fight. It definitely played out to her advantage
42:57
She was. And you could see the skill too. Like Macy, when she would come in
43:02
there was a little slickness with the reversals with Catlin. But at the same time, when you're fighting someone
43:10
who is a lot more physical, a lot bigger, stronger, and they're throwing their weight around
43:17
she couldn't have even made it to 138, where Macy was the night that she learned
43:23
that it was going to be at 145. Yeah, I wish it could have been at least like a catch weight, you know
43:27
Yeah, like 140. And I'm sure the conversation was she can't make 140
43:32
It's crazy. Yeah. That is so crazy. Yeah. You just, I wonder if that was strategy
43:39
I mean, she's, I don't remember Ketlyn Vera having a weight issue previously
43:45
Yeah, let's see. I don't think so either, but she's always seemed like a big girl
43:50
Definitely. Okay, so against Yana Santos, she missed weight by two pounds
44:00
Or no, it was a catch weight because she missed weight by two pounds
44:06
And that's it on her topology. That's the only time she missed weight
44:12
So, yeah, it's a shame. It really is because Macy was kind of streaking
44:20
Like she's had a lot of success at 135. She's fought at 45 before, but it seems like she's more physical at 35
44:34
And yeah, it's just one of those fights where she's always going to wonder what would have happened if they were both at the weight that they decided to get
44:42
There's an asterisk next to this fight. There just is. Yeah, yeah
44:47
But I think she'll be able to bounce back. Like she's coming off of two finishes before this fight
44:55
Ketlyn just looked bigger and stronger But the first round I thought was a little strange Like there was a lot of movement I wondering if she was worried about the power of Ketlin
45:04
because there was a lot of circling on the outside. And I felt like if she had approached the first round
45:12
the way she approached the last 30 seconds of the last round, then it would have been a different fight
45:18
Potentially. I think that there is something to what you were saying
45:22
just not knowing what that power was going to feel like, how damaging it was going to be because she moved a little apprehensive
45:29
And I think the adjustment that would have helped her a lot was to be more of a
45:36
counter striker like, uh, Ketlin Vera was, uh, Macy could have, you know
45:42
pulled strikes out of her then countered off of it or been like first and third
45:47
kind of thing. Um, but maybe she, maybe she felt something in there that she wasn't comfortable with
45:53
Yeah. Yeah. It's one of those things where like the thing that you're afraid of ends up
45:58
being your success. Yes. The thing that you're afraid of ends up getting you in trouble because of the
46:05
way that you react to this fear. Yeah. So it seemed like she was circling
46:10
circling. And then when she finally decided to go, it was just the wrong time
46:15
You know, and like you were saying, if she had kind of pulled something out and then gone
46:21
then I think she would have had more success. But she looked like nasty in that last 30 seconds of the fight
46:28
like once she was able to finally get up. And then there was also a fear, too, where her corner was yelling
46:33
get your feet on the hips, push, get up, get up. You got to open your guard, get up
46:38
And then when she finally did it in the last seconds of the round, it worked
46:42
Yeah. So I think there was a lot of just, you know, you're fighting someone
46:47
bigger they feel stronger a lot of times it just feels impossible to move against them until you do
46:54
the things that you practice and you're like oh it worked oh wait yeah ah shit i could have done it
46:59
earlier yeah there's a false sense of security sometimes um until you just like hit that bucket
47:06
button yeah you know like uh keeping keeping a guard closed or keeping somebody tight on you
47:11
trying to trying to stay safe instead of creating that space and and movement it ends up uh you know
47:17
being to your own detriment at times. Yeah. So what do you think's next for Ketlin Vieira
47:21
Do you think she opens up to the 45 division again? No, I don't
47:25
I really don't think they'll do that. I don't think there's, there's a want or a need for it
47:30
I mean, Ketlin just lost a hard fought fight to, to Kayla Harrison
47:37
She could, I mean, you could mix her in with like, Dumont, Pennington, just to kind of keep it in there
47:45
Or you could like, I mean, what about Eileen Perez? What about, you know, some of these girls ranked a little bit lower
47:55
Because I don't think this win really, again, to me, there's an asterisk next to it
48:00
I don't know what it does for, you know, the people that do the rankings or, you know, getting or what it does to the matchmakers, really
48:10
But I think that this fight didn't really do much for her
48:15
Yeah, I agree. Just because of, yeah, the weight miss, it's almost like winning a fight in a different division
48:25
It really does put an asterisk beside it, and you're just kind of wondering, okay
48:30
what's going to happen when she actually is able to make weight? Aileen Perez, she missed weight before, too
48:37
only by like a pound and a half, but that might be a fun one for her because she might not care
48:43
You know, she might not care if she's a little bigger because she's a little thicker of a girl, too
48:50
And she has the grappling, so she'd be able to show off her chops in that department, see if she can out wrestle, out wrestle Ketlin
49:00
I kind of like that fight. I think that would be a fun one. I agree. Make it happen
49:04
Yeah. If she has to fight down, I like that fight. and then um there were a couple fights on the prelims i wanted to talk about which one
49:18
well of course we gotta talk about our girl our tiktok friend our tiktok friend elise uh say it
49:26
again our delion our delion that's how they announce it she's so fancy i know it's like
49:34
spanish or something yeah that's a fancy name yeah so she fought she fought dos santos who is
49:41
um more naturally an adam weight fighter and it just looked like she it was listen it was a fun
49:47
fight i don't think dos santos was giving as much as she was receiving um they ended up getting
49:55
fight of the night it was an exciting opener to this card um and ardeline i think that this
50:01
opponent's style of fighting played into her game a lot better than the other girls that she's fought
50:08
Yeah. And she was able to showcase, you know, she used her size, her range. She was, um, as soon as
50:16
Dos Santos would telegraph with her punches because she wouldn't, you know, really faint beforehand
50:20
And she just started kind of throwing things out of desperation. But Arlene had an answer every
50:25
single time she tried to come forward. Yeah. That first round, I was scared for her. She was, uh
50:30
Dos Santos was landing, was hitting her with a lot of hooks over the top
50:35
like Ardelene, um, Ardelion. I keep going back to Ardel. I know, right
50:42
Ardelene's easy to say, but at least her, her lead arm was a little low
50:50
So every time she came in, she was able to get hit over the top
50:53
but then she started finding her mark and she started moving her head in and out
50:57
Like neither of them really had like side to side head movement, but Elise was good at pulling
51:03
Like we were talking about with the other fight. She was good at like hitting, pulling out just as Dos Santos tried to counter and then coming back in
51:11
I'm like, OK, like, OK, the hands are working today. Like she's really been upping the output
51:19
She was able to like strike really nice, wobbled her a few times
51:23
Like both of them were getting after it when it came to like the power
51:28
And as at one point, she just like busted Dos Santos's lip to the point where she looked like that girl that dresses up like the Joker
51:37
She had the Wang Kong face paint on, but it was a good fight
51:42
Like I like watching that fight. Me and Adam were just like, oh, this is good
51:47
Yeah, that was the one fight we watched live before we started playing video games
51:53
How could she turn away after that one? The commercials. No, man, I was in it
52:00
I was like, okay. Yeah, like we're in. Ready for this card. We're in
52:04
Ready for it. I don't know. The Oki fight kind of like
52:09
I was like, what is this? contender series, guys. That was hard, too, because, again, they want to push these contender series people
52:17
It's like they're invested in their product, and they want to push it
52:21
so it can get a little bit annoying so I think that that fight actually kind of highlighted how good Dos Santos and Ardellion fight was
52:36
It was a good scrap. And if anything, I was watching them like, dude, if anything, like they're going to give Dos Santos another chance because she gets after it
52:44
Like she stays in the pocket. She throws bombs like she's trying her best to win
52:50
And I really do feel bad for her because Dos Santos, she's on her way to having more split decision robberies than me
52:58
Like her first two in the UFC was a split decision against Talita Alancar, split decision loss
53:06
And then Pooja Tamar, which we were all up in arms about like that
53:11
Oh, she won that fight. Yeah, she won that fight. She won it. She won that fight
53:16
I forget that that was her. Yeah, that was her. And the Talita Alencar one happened on her birthday
53:22
Oh, yeah. So it's horrible. She's had a really rough run in the UFC
53:29
But oh, wait, no, it didn't. I'm like looking at her birthday on tap
53:33
I'm like, no, it didn't. I think somebody said that, though. And then I just believed it
53:37
I took it at Facebook. Oh, no, the Pooja Tamar one happened on her birthday
53:42
That's rude. That was the biggest one, the biggest robbery. So I hope that they give her another chance
53:49
because I consider her 2-1 in the UFC, not 0-3. And usually it's at least a four-fight contract if you'reâ€
53:58
They'll let her fight it out. Yeah, yeah. So hopefully they'll give her one more. But I was really impressed with Elise Ardeline's improvements
54:07
since her last two. Both of these girls were coming off of two losses
54:12
and fighting for the contract. Their back was up against the wall. Absolutely. Yeah, and you could tell
54:16
So I'm happy that they got fighting tonight. I think they both deserved it
54:20
And it was a dope fight. Maybe we can hit up Elise and get her on the show
54:25
As soon as I get my phone back, I'm going to slide into that girl's DM
54:29
Hey, we won't be the only one. Oh, and I like that she did her face that made her famous
54:39
Yes! After her win, she finally got a post-fight speech and she was able to do the..
54:44
Yeah, I mean, her nerves were a little shot. Her face was a little swollen, but she made it happen
54:48
You know what she was doing. Exactly. She still pulled through. Exactly
54:52
And then one more, the fight, a couple fights later, Jordan Leavitt
54:58
what a great moment for him. Yeah, he's had a tough run, too
55:05
Yeah. He's a talented grappler, and he got a really nice body lock to take down
55:12
and then finished with a nice anaconda choke. Yeah. did his cute little victory break dancing kind of thing
55:23
Yeah. And hey, I talk a lot of shit about DC, but I thought that was so cool that he gave him that moment
55:29
Like he was like, yeah, you say you're not going to twerk anymore. You're not going to do this and that, but we need a celebration
55:35
And then Levitt, he pulled it out. That was an excellent worm
55:40
Such a great worm. But like even better was the submission. He's always been one of these people who I felt like was going to do a lot of things in the UFC
55:50
Just his his ability to submit people, his ability to just get right into the takedown, but also his personality outside of the cage to like the he did the famous
56:03
Was it dirty dancing celebration? Was I don't remember that. You don't remember he's dirty dancing
56:11
You know when the guy runs or when, yeah, he holds up the girl
56:16
I think that's our next challenge. You're going to hold me. Oh, God, no
56:20
I mean, I flipped you and all that stuff. You have to do the holding
56:24
My, like, lockout isn't strong. Like, you're going to land right on my face
56:31
Fine. I need to work on my handstand first before I can do that with another person
56:36
But yeah, he hit the dirty dancing after one of his wins
56:41
Oh my God, I have to see that. I feel like I've seen it, but it's just not coming to mind right now
56:50
I just remember he always does a really cool dance afterwards. And the splits
56:55
The splits are imprinted in my mind. Here we go. The pride days when we saw Quentin Rampage Jackson
57:02
What a cutie. How cute. Yeah. Aww. Oh, how cute. This is when he got his first knockout
57:09
Who did he knock out? I forget. Oh, he did it twice
57:14
Come on, coach. Lock those arms out. I know, right? That's what I'm saying. I'm like, I don't want to do that
57:19
You're not tired. You weren't the one fighting. Lock him out. So, yeah, he's a really fun character
57:28
and I'm happy that he's back on the winning side. He dropped a couple recently
57:35
You know, he lost to T. Scooper and Pemlett most recently. But he's been able to string together more wins than losses
57:44
So I like that he's getting his groove back with the Kurt Holubo win
57:51
He's a tough cookie to finish as well. He just needs to make more TikTok dances
57:56
Yeah, he has to get on TikTok. Sorry, guy. I know you're like almost aged out of TikTok, but you got to get on there
58:02
Yeah, it was too late for me. So do it. Do it before it's too late. Take it from me
58:07
Yeah, do it. Well, yeah, those are all the fights that I want to talk about
58:13
And then next week, do we have fights or is it another break
58:17
Oh, we have June 7th is UFC 316. Oh, yeah. Yes, we have your boy, Marab, and the other guy, Sean O'Malley
58:30
Ooh, the other guy. I didn't know what to say. And then we have Pena and Harrison
58:37
Okay. And then Gastelum and Pfeiffer have been moved. Hopefully Pfeiffer is feeling a lot better
58:45
His booty? No tummy bum issues. Don't drink the water in Jersey either, okay, Pfeiffer
58:53
He's from Philly. The water's way tougher over there. He's conditioned. Oh, true. He's fine
58:58
Yeah. And then we also have a very exciting addition in Patchy Mix coming into the Bantamweight
59:06
division, and he will be fighting Mario Bautista. Yes. This is an easy fight for Patchy Mix
59:12
I know, like, people are really excited about him coming in, and this is, like, a good test
59:17
for him. Like, Mario Bautista, he beat Aldo. He smothered Aldo, and he did not actually win that fight
59:23
That's just my opinion. Yes, but he knows how to do enough for the judges to be like
59:30
all right, I'll give it to this guy. I'm so mad at that. Yeah. Just furious
59:35
But Patchy Mix, he's definitely a stud on the ground. You rarely see him look bad in a fight
59:44
So I'm really excited to see what he can do. I feel like this is going to be one of those quality additions
59:49
to the UFC from another promotion. Yeah, after the pitbull debacle. You guys need to rep your previous organization
59:59
It was just a few years too late. If they had brought him in in 2020, he would have been fine
1:00:06
Yeah. Yeah, they just waited. He aged out a bit when it came to that
1:00:11
But yeah, lots of good fights on this card. Even on the prelims, we forgot to mention Kevin Holland versus Vicente Luque
1:00:23
It's just kind of like a fun fight, fun card opener. and on the prelims
1:00:28
you have Johnny Walker he's fighting Asmat Merzakinov not sure who that is
1:00:36
but we got a Johnny Walker fight and Asmat is undefeated 14 and 0
1:00:43
so I hope we don't see another cartoon knockout of Johnny Walker
1:00:47
but you know that could happen when was his last fight? Has it been a year
1:00:52
That man needs to take time off in between his fights And also maybe move up to heavyweight
1:00:57
I'm just saying. I mean, yeah, maybe. His last fight was June 22nd
1:01:07
So almost a year. Okay. But he was knocked out by Volkan
1:01:13
Exactly. That, yeah. Yeah. Hopefully it's enough time. He hasn't been shaking his brain up too much before getting this fight
1:01:23
So hopefully he'll be okay. but I wonder what happens to Marlon Vera because he was supposed to fight
1:01:29
Batista and I'm guessing he got moved to another card. I think he might've just gotten hurt
1:01:38
Cause it was a short notice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think he just got hurt
1:01:45
So hopefully he'll be okay. Another addition I think is a chaos
1:01:53
Williams, He's fighting one of the guys that got pulled from the last card
1:01:58
Who is it? Gustafson. He was supposed to fight on this card, and now he gets to fight Caleb Williams, which should be fun
1:02:10
I'm sorry. Yeah. Here's your prize. You're welcome. I know, right? When I throw you a bone, I don't want to know how it tastes
1:02:21
Hey, at least he doesn't have to be in the apex when he, you know, gets hit
1:02:29
He'll know it's happening because the crowd will be going crazy. They'll let him know how bad it is
1:02:33
Yeah. Ooh, your nose is hanging off. No. Arian Lipski is fighting Wang Kong
1:02:40
We get to see another Joker weigh in. I do like that
1:02:44
You like it? I do. I like when people get to, you know, express themselves
1:02:49
Yeah. Well, yeah, she'll say some weird stuff. Go, you want to fight me
1:02:59
You know how I got this scar? Yeah. It's really strange, but people love it
1:03:08
It works for her. Yeah, let her do it. And then we have Jekka Saragi
1:03:14
He's fighting somebody. Oh, yes. How could I have messed that up
1:03:19
And he's fighting. Go ahead. Go ahead. You go. Yuju Sang. Is that how you say it? Yeah
1:03:29
It's Yuju Sang. Oh, God. No, I don't know. I don't know
1:03:37
Listen, together we can say something correctly. Yeah, there you go. We work it out
1:03:44
Yuju Sang, Iju Sang. it's all the same thing you know yes exactly that
1:03:53
well done well done yeah you got any picks for this card yet or you still need to
1:03:57
check out the tape you know what I probably need to check out some
1:04:03
tape but we're just gonna go I'm just gonna off shoot from the hip I'm going
1:04:10
Marab's gonna retain alright I'm gonna get some hate from this but I think
1:04:15
Juliana Pena is going to win. Hey, I mean, against Ketlin, like, she showed some holes
1:04:24
And now she has to go five rounds. Yeah, and then the Pacheco fight, people keep forgetting about that
1:04:29
Larissa Pacheco she was able to just outwork Kayla and make her angry and not happy I cannot count out Juliana Pena It hard to This woman just takes people and like throws their
1:04:45
like everything that they have on paper and she's like. Like, your technique
1:04:50
Yeah. I'm going to beat you with my head. Exactly. And heart
1:04:56
So yeah, I'm leaning towards Penny on this one. Again, I have, you know, some footage to watch
1:05:00
I think Pfeiffer's going to pull the win off of Gastelum. and I got Pachimix over Batista
1:05:07
Yeah, I feel like I have similar picks. I feel like I got to go with Kayla, though, for that fight
1:05:13
I just feel like, you know, she showed such dominance against home
1:05:18
dominance against, well, not dominance, but just, you know, she figured her way out of tough situations with Ketlin
1:05:24
She was just mad that she wasn't able to finish her, really. But I think if she can control someone like that
1:05:29
she should be able to find her way to controlling Pena. Sure
1:05:34
I agree with the Marab fight. I think it's going to be the same fight
1:05:39
If O'Malley finds the mark, though, that's definitely a thing that Marab has to watch out for
1:05:46
Remember, he lost that last round. Or maybe not lost, but just got hurt in that last round against O'Malley
1:05:52
Those straight kicks, right? Yeah, yeah. He got hurt to the body. He circled a bit
1:05:57
And then he just, you know, clowned him for the last few seconds. but yeah there there's definitely a chance for omali to get this one back um gastelum pfeiffer
1:06:08
i'm going pfeiffer i think gastelum's just you know not not as athletic not as i feel like he's
1:06:14
so talented and just doesn't do anything with it like uh discipline discipline wise i feel like
1:06:23
Gastelum fights like he's 10 years older than he actually is. Like he skipped his prime
1:06:31
Like when he was on top, he was a monster. He was just like this dark horse that came out
1:06:38
was dropping people, was just like really, really good in the boxing department
1:06:45
And then you get to like his last few fights and he just looked flat, you know
1:06:51
like he doesn't look like he did when people were excited about him
1:06:55
I just, I think back to when, you know, we showed up at Alliance MMA in Chula Vista and Gastelum had just kind of
1:07:02
left the gym and he started branching out, going into other places to train
1:07:06
And I remember just everybody talking about his work ethic. Oh, okay. And so that always stands in my mind
1:07:11
And I mean, we see it on the scale with him. Yeah. We, we see it in his
1:07:16
you know, flatness in the fights kind of thing. And I, I wonder if that is, you know, the underlying issue
1:07:24
And again, I haven't, you know, been in the same training room as him very often, but that's kind of what stands out to me
1:07:32
Yeah. I mean, that very well could be it. Like if you lose the passion to just work the hardest in the room and be the person who is, you know, winning the rounds and all this stuff
1:07:45
then it's easy to like not look as good as you are, even if you're physically able to
1:07:50
to show up the way that you used to five years ago. So yeah
1:07:54
that I feel like Pfeiffer still has that juice. He's still like really excited to be there
1:07:59
And I think that's all you need really right now to be Gastelum when like the
1:08:05
skills are matched. Yeah. They're, I mean, they're kind of, I don't want to say an exact mirror image of each other
1:08:11
but they both favor the boxing and the wrestling. Kelvin has a little bit more in the ways of like submission skills that I have seen
1:08:20
But I think that Joe Pfeiffer does it just a little bit better
1:08:24
Yeah, same. And then who did you pick for Batista Pachimix? Pachimix
1:08:29
You got Pachimix? Yes. Hmm. I don't know, man. Batista, he finds a way
1:08:37
It's a tough one for me. I'm going to have to watch tape before I put my stamp on that
1:08:40
For sure. And again, I'm going to go watch. But those are those are like my
1:08:46
Yeah. Just quick takes. You're off the cuff. Yes. I think that this is random, but I think Lipsky can be Wayne Kong
1:08:56
Really? Yeah. Like you saw her last one. She was kind of doing all right, but then just got got a little sloppy, got taken down and submitted
1:09:05
So I felt like Lipsky can find a way around Wayne Kong's like, you know, initial barrage
1:09:12
She hasn really beaten anyone notable yet So yeah I think this is a good step up for her but i feel like lipski can out veteran her okay and then uh yeah i think that oh joshua van i have joshua van over bruno silva too
1:09:30
i think silva is he's very technically good but he's hittable we've seen him get hurt in fights
1:09:37
before and joshua van is just like a monster on the feet so all right yeah and then probably chaos
1:09:44
Williams for the guy, the poor guy who's stepping in to fight him short notice
1:09:51
Oh, poor guy. It is what it is. Well, I mean, you know, scratch their back, they'll scratch yours at least once
1:10:01
One scratch before we kick you to the curb. Get out of here
1:10:07
Gets in. Call your brother back. They're like that. Oh, man. All right
1:10:15
Well, anything else on your mind for today? I mean, we have some topics that I can, you know, go into if you want to
1:10:25
So we can do roulette with these links that I have just off the topic topics
1:10:32
Okay. Okay. So I'm going to go. Oh. Oh, yeah. I'm excited about this
1:10:41
I'll go with this one. Okay. So watch this fight. So mom knocks out her son's ex
1:10:46
What? Yes. There was a cage fight. And again, this is just like a link headline that I saw that I clipped for, you know, just different stuff to talk about
1:10:56
How would you like it if somebody hurt your baby boy's feelings and you got to fight her in the cage
1:11:04
So I feel like this is one of those. And okay, I'll still answer the question
1:11:09
But I feel like this is one of those things where people just put a caption over a video that you'll believe
1:11:17
For sure. But it's a topic of conversation. But it's a topic of conversation
1:11:23
I would love if I had a baby boy and his ex, like, cheated on him, did something really dirty
1:11:33
I don't know. Gave him an STD, something like that. But, I mean, I don't know
1:11:39
I would love to beat up a girl no matter what. I don't really need a reason
1:11:43
but if there was some extra emotional tie to it, then yeah, even better
1:11:48
I'm basically doing it right now. Like everyone I fight is going to be like 20 years younger than me
1:11:54
So I'm basically beating up my son that I never had exes
1:12:00
every time I get out there. Well, it just, It brought me back to like the days when I would punk the girls that were mean to my brother
1:12:12
Oh, OK. Yes. I was very protective older sister. Yeah. I would always find ways to make sure people understood that that was not OK
1:12:22
Yeah. I'll let you have it. Yeah. It's unfair for for guys sometimes because, you know, you're not allowed to hit girls
1:12:33
so you have to call in the the reserves you have to call in the sisters to handle the business for
1:12:40
you because you don't want to be you know a dick yes i got you make it fair she's on my team she's
1:12:49
gonna beat you up for me she represents me uh okay here's here's one more and this is again
1:12:57
And just grabbing headlines. So, ex-UFC fighter reveals how he smuggled a kilo of coke through a Colombian airport
1:13:05
Oh, how? So, he says in an interview, former UFC middleweight veteran Ian Hurricane Heinich tells an insane
1:13:18
story about how during the darker period of his life, he managed to smuggle a kilo of
1:13:22
coke in his stomach through colombian airport bypassing security x-ray scanner and police all
1:13:27
in the process now i just wonder i'm like should you be talking about this i mean there's no proof
1:13:35
that he actually did it you know there's a allegedly i mean you can always say oh i said
1:13:41
this for entertainment but shock value yeah like i you have no way to like actually say that i did
1:13:48
this but you know also it pretty crazy leave it for your book yeah right leave it for your memoir i think it pretty um i think it pretty recorded like he pretty open about like being in prison and stuff Like I think that his background
1:14:05
Like he was in prison. He did all this crazy stuff. And then he became a fighter
1:14:10
So he could like not have to do all that in order to make money
1:14:16
But yeah, I feel like he has a really crazy backstory like that
1:14:20
I need to know more. Yes. We'll do a deep dive on this guy
1:14:25
That's incredible. We should try and interview him. Yeah. Yeah. What else you got
1:14:33
What is this? Okay. Schaub kicked out of Little League game. Oh, my gosh
1:14:42
What did he? Former UFC fighter and podcaster and now Little League coach Ben and Schaub
1:14:48
was recently thrown out of a game after arguing multiple calls from the umpire
1:14:52
You can see the umpire initially warn Schaub and then eventually thrown him out after the second call, which was followed up by Schaub walking down the umpire before leaving the field
1:15:03
Now, as somebody who used, who grew up playing like softball and baseball, I used to play with the boys until they started getting just a little bit too fast
1:15:14
Too big. Too big. But man, I can see myself getting pretty heated
1:15:22
I could see me throwing attitude and a very sensitive umpire throwing me out of a game
1:15:30
You know, if it was anyone else, I would side with the heated parrot
1:15:35
But because Brendan Schaub, I'm just like, he probably didn't even know
1:15:40
what was going on. Oh! Like, horrible call. Didn't see it. Like, that's kind of the thing
1:15:48
He just runs out yelling and he doesn't even know what he's yelling about. Yeah, yeah. What are you doing
1:15:51
It's not even his kid. His kid's on first base. He's like mad at him for calling something on some other kid that he thought was his
1:16:01
But no, if it was anyone else, I'd be like, oh, yeah, they probably weren't at fault
1:16:07
But his friend and shop was probably his fault. Oh, come on
1:16:11
You don't agree? I agree. Okay. I agree. Don't make me the bad guy
1:16:17
Calm down. Calm down. I already made the seizure jokes earlier. You can't make me the bad guy in every conversation
1:16:28
No, I just said I could see myself getting thrown out, too, for, you know, crossing the line
1:16:33
Yeah, but if it were you, I'd be more like, oh, there's probably some backstory there
1:16:39
Oh, thank you. If it was Brendan Chubb, I'm like. Guilty. Strayed to jail
1:16:45
He's drunk. He's high. All right. Well, this has been another two straws, but we also have a giveaway that we've been dying to do
