Keyshawn's Horrible Weekend WTF! Recap Wardley KO! Canelo/Crawford on NETFLIX! Loma Retires! · The Rope A Dope Radio Podcast

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Hey, what are boxing fans? This is the Rope of
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Dope radio podcast. I am your host, Chris Carlson. We
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: are live on a Wednesday afternoon. I hope everybody's doing okay.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We do have a fair amount to talk about. Last
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: night got in the way. I wasn't able to do
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: the show, but I'm back either way, right Keith Sean
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Davis drops the ball, not once, but twice. It's like
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: he had two touchdowns that would have won the game
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: and he dropped them both. Just ridiculous, Just fucking ridiculous.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: He blows weight by a mile of country mile if
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: we're in the UK, and then there's some sort of
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: dispute that gets physical, some sort of altercation that I
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: can't sit there and say I know exactly how what
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: where it started. You know, you saw the footage and
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: you also saw the bruising. You know there's some sort
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: of headbot potentially whatever. Either way, it was just ridiculous.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: So and that's all Bright obviously, the guy who upset,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: which I did call, I want some money on that one.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: It was like a plus one fifty eight or something
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: like that. It wasn't crazy, but you know I did
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: call it just putting that out there, so we'll go
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: over some of that. Obviously, Abdullah Mason got his got
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: his job done right. It looks like the w VO
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I just saw is gonna call for you know, him
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: to have a title fight. But yeah, Keishan Davis, man,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: it's just meanwhile, he's like pressing people during the fight
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: week like he's gonna make weight. It was just bad, dude.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: It was a bad fumble. Fabio Warley pulls a wilder.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: We'll get into some of that. We do have more
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: of a light week and we have Richardson Hitchin's return
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: against Cambosa's which is like a faded faded name. You know,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: it is what it is. It's not a horrible fight
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: by any stretch of the imagination. There is a measuring
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: stick which is kind of a popular thing now, you know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: measuring how good he did compared to another fighter and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: so on. Ernesto Mercado, I believe it's in the action,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: although I think it's kind of up in the air.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I heard that he might not be fighting Andy Cruz.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and no need don't there returns as well.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: We did get some really good news though with Canelo
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and Bud it is gonna be on Netflix, which you
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: know I said from the start, it's phenomenal, you know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: for that to be a Netflicks. You know, obviously they
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: got that big showing, even though there was a lot
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of technical issues with Jake Paul and Tyson. Actually I'm
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: gonna say Tyson and Jake Paul. I can't even do
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: that to Mike. You know. The undercard fight obviously was
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: a rematch Taylor Serrano. Phenomenal fight. And I didn't watch
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: that live that night, so I didn't have all the
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: technical issues. It was just sitting there chilling, ready to
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: be archived. But either way, for that now to have
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: a trilogy, you know, on Netflix in July, and then
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: to come right back in September and have a monster fight.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: And the closer you get to this date with Crawford
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and Canelo, it's the more you're starting to think. You know,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: John and I talked about it last week or the
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: week before. I think last week I talked about it
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: with brunch boxing in the early mornings or at least
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: early morning for me, you know, with Matt when he
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: did an emergency space Twitter space. You know, the closer
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: we get, the more, the more you kind of think
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Bud might be able to pull this off. I mean,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: the odds are much tighter then. Maybe we were talking
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: about it a year or two ago. Some of it
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: is recency biased with Canelo in that poor performance, and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you know he's not in his one prime anymore. Now.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: You could also look and say, well, Crawford didn't look,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you know, look all that good at fifty four. You
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: know so, but I'm just happy it's on Netflix. I'll
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: give my my take there a little bit. Tayo Fema Lopez.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell's going on with that guy. Man.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: You know, you have his agents saying one thing, putting
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: out you know, basically a statement. Tail comes on and
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: talks more about why he didn't take the handy fight. Well,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: you know, PBC is now in the full potentially all
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: sorts of weird stuff. And then Loma Schenko hangs up
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: the gloves. We'll talk a little bit about that. Someone
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: said it best that he got so highly rated to
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the point where he was overrated, but then he was
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: overrated for so long and just so much hype in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: general that he became a little underrated then. And that
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: is kind of a true. I thought that was well put.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he hung them up. No big surprise there.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: The writing had been on the wall, so we won't
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: get the number one and number two lineal when it
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: comes to him in Gervonte Davis, which is too bad.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: But you know, if your heart's not into it, you
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: might as well not fight Gervonte, you know what I mean. Anyway.

• 7:11
  Speaker 1: lot to talk about in general, and so you know,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: per usual, I do like to start in the ring,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: so we'll kind of work our way out to Keisha. Okay,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Key Sean had his chance to be in front of Norfolk.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I suppose he kind of still was, but like I said,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: he fumbled the bag. And you know, the more time
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: goes by without Floyd in the game, it's it's really
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: it's really telling. How like there's stuff that you can
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: say about Floyd, whether it's something he said or you know,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: turning in from pretty boy Floyd to Money Mayweather and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and and you know, outside the ring stuff, there's things
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: obviously you can be critical about, but overall as far
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: as professionalism as a boxer in his sport and just
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: staying you know, staying the course right, showing up, making weight, performing,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: you know, over and over and over and over and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: over and over and over again. Like it's it's it's
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: crazy right, compared to some of these young youngsters. And
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: you know, missing weight is missing weight, right. It seems
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: to happen a little bit more now in recent like
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: last ten to fifteen years. And you know, sometimes you
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: look at a little different when a guy or a
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: gal doesn't even try to make the weight. You know,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: but let's let's stop, Okay, Let's start with Naire all
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Bright and Kelvin Davis. Like I said, Albright was an underdog,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: but not a major underdog. I like this pick. I
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: liked this fight. I thought it was a good development
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: fight for Calvin Davis as far as on paper, it
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: would definitely be a nice step up for him, and
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: you could see it was. I thought the first round
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: was pretty close. Davis had like a little combo late
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: in that first round. Wasn't enough to give it to him.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Probably the jabs in a light right hand though from Albright,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: you could have gave him the round off of that maybe,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: but I did give it to Davis. Excuse me. It
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: was a slow round in the second round. And then
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Albright which something he did a lot the overhand right.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: It was like under a minute he shook up Davis.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Whether he heard him buzz them whatever, It shook him up,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: and then there was I think a left hook or
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: multiple left hooks to close that round. And then you
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: could see in the third round Davis did become a
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: little bit more defensively aware. I guess you could say
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: while he's landing his jab but a big right hand
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: in a left hook with like thirty seconds left shook
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: him up again. You know, huge right hands that would
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: land flush, and he was at least like off balance
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: a little stumbly after that big right hook from Davis.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Bus fourth round came really like fourth through let's say sixth.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I thought Davis was jabbing a little bit better now,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and he was. He was moving better, I thought too.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I thought, overall though, the meaningful shots, the better lands,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: for the most part, we're all all bright. By the
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: seventh round, you started to see like Davis finally let
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: his hands go, And so I did give him the
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: seventh round. Like I said, the first and the seventh
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: so far, you know, I don't know if you could
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: give him the sixth. I don't think so, or any
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: of those rounds from four to six, but I did
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: give him the seventh. The eighth definitely had two way moments,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: but overall better lands you know, came from Albright to me.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: You know, I thought the ninth was pretty close. That's
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: another one that I could see given to Davis, and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: then I gave the twelve or the ten, excuse me,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: to Albright. So whether it's seven to three, maybe eight
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: to two, I had it right around seven to three.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: You know, it was a pretty easy fight to score.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: They threw up the power punches at the end, and
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: these are just power punches, non jabs. Ninety nine to
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: forty five. They both landed thirty five percent. But not
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: only did he double him all Bright in power punches,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: but he doubled him in throwing landing in throwing. But
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: yet maintain that same percentage, which is, you know, pretty good.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Twenty to fifteen to the body. Remember that's just non
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: jab because I bring that up because he did jab
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: to the body Albright really well. But ninety five to
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: ninety five, I mean really did ninety five to ninety five,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I mean that is just give me a second here,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: hold on, all right. Sorry, I don't know if you
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: could hear that, but something was going on back there.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: I had to I think I shut a door that uh,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: something was stuck there. Okay, we're good, We're good. But yeah,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: the ninety five to ninety five was just like seriously, like,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: how how could you get that out of that? So
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: and I guess it'll go down as a majority decision,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: but even ninety six ninety four, I mean six to four,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: that's really bending over backwards for Calvin Davis. And I know,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: you know he's at home and all that, but yeah,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I definitely did not see that. But
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: either way, seven to three, eight to two, all bright
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: with a very good performance. You know, he's a guy
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: that he lost to Jermaine o Ortez a while back,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: probably like three years ago, give or take something like that.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: He doesn't have a lot of power. I remember him
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: taking a very early actually I think it was his debut.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Don't quote me on that. I think it was his debut.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: And then obviously, you know the Keyshawn Davis. You know,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: he was, he was competitive. You know, it turned into
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: a no contest in that. You know, I don't know,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: like I really thought this was probably too much of
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: a step up, and it ensure was you know, it
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: definitely was. So now you're alright, shots out to him.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: He looked pretty damn good in my assessment. On to
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: the main event. Now, of course you had Isley winning.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: You know, on the card you had Johnson, Delante Johnson
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: as well, Kean Davis won as well, Derek Davis won
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: as well. Johnson did beat Boca Chokachoka Coca. Now, so
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I'm saying that because my drunken friend kept saying it
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: all sorts of weird ways. Uh, Boka Chika is obviously
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: the way he said it, but it just made me
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: laugh when he kept saying it every time. He kept
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: saying it because he remembers this one fight. But it
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: was a clean win. There wasn't many too many rounds.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It wasn't a great performance per se, right, but it's
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: not like it was a really really competitive type fight.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Onto Abdua Mason who took on Nakatia. You know, for
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: obvious reasons he had to move into the main event.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Mason came out with his jab in the first round,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: mostly second round, bringing that jab and then lee left
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: hooks either lead or I should say lead straight or
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: left hooks actually, but that was definitely on display. Nakatilla
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: he landed a few good shots in the third round,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: but the left hooks to the head just in general,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: but especially some left hooks to the head late in
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: the third round. We're being in the third round, you know,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: obviously for Mason, Sorry, I'm getting a little distracted. There's
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: this freaking cat. Okay, So eighty seconds or so into
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the fourth round, multiple left hands hurt Nakatilla for sure,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: and there was little spots, you know, where he had
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: minor success, but overall he was landing some big shots.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: And then it was I don't know, like you could
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: tell his eye was effect I canna see you. But
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: right before the beginning of the fifth round, the doctor
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: came in and stopped the fight. Well, the doctor told
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: the ref. The ref was saying, hey, he can't see
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: can he see what's going on? And then it was
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, he can't see that well out of
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: the eye or he couldn't see, or it was partial
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: vision or whatever it was. It looked like the ref
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: was trying to talk the doctor in to stop in
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: the fight. So it was obviously very anti climatic, you know,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: not that there was gonna be a big climax, you know,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: in that fight, but so it just kind of abruptly
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: it was like, oh, Okay, it's over, you know, but
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: it did look like he was well on his way
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: well to win that fight. Obviously end up doing Mason,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: you know, definitely doing his thing. Like he's a young,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: very talented fighter. I like how he mixes up his shots.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I like how he uses his jab, you know, to
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the to the stomach, to the chest, to the head.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: You know, he sets up his shots really well. And
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: and now I'm hearing right before I got I saw
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: got on. I saw Queensberry promotion tweet about the w
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: b O ordering for the vacant w b O abdueam
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Mason and Samkies. He said, nokies for noakes. I've seen
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: him fight a couple of times, so that that appears
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to be, you know, the next fight. When will it
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: be made? I'm not totally sure, but you know, something
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: to you know, keep an eye on when it comes
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: to that. Uh, you know, he obviously didn't take much damage,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: so he should be he should be good go. You know,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I don't see how he wouldn't be pretty much good
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: to go. I did see the ratings yesterday the fifth
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: top rank event. It averaged five hundred and thirty eight
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: thousand viewers, which puts it second so far this year.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Obviously there's only what two more one of them is
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: gonna be on ESPN, plus I think one's on ESPN,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: So ultimately it really doesn't matter. But Keishawn and Brinshick
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: earlier five point fifty nine, that's the highest anyway, and
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: on Sunday was five thirty six. So you know, ultimately,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: because they're moving on from ESPN, you know, doesn't mean
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: a whole lot, but you know, it is what it is.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: It is what it is. And also we did have
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Dillian White was supposed to be on that the fight
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about next the wordly Honey. But Frank
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: warrenton Box Nation that white Hat is awaiting a big,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: big fight in August, right, and I and I believe
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: we know that that will be. It's not announced yet,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: but it's gonna be against Moses. So yeah, like I said,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: more than likely, you assume that's what it's gonna be
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: based off you know what we're here and now because
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: we're starting to hear that card fill up a little bit.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Speaking of Dua Mason, Bob Aaron did say whether it's
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: two years or three years or one year, they're going
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: to eventually end up fighting each other meeting, you know,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Davis and Mason. I think Abdullah hasn't had the experience
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: that Kisha has, so he just need that experience before
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: he's ready to step up against Kisha. Now, obviously they're
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: no longer in the same weight class, but then again,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: if it's a year from now or two years from now,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: you know, they may be right in the same the
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: same weight class, you know, So we will see, we
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: will see. But yeah, I mean I like him do
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: a whole lot. I really do think he's a very
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: good fighter. I'm I'm looking forward to, you know, seeing
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: him progress, let's say. So, Yeah, you know, I I
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: do think that he's got a lot of talent. People
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: kind of freaked out pretty early when he got knocked down,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: and you know, I mean, I don't know, like I
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: think that might be some of the reason why showing
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: this stuff you know early, like you know, as a prospect,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: and when I mean showing, uh, you know, seeing these
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: fights that we probably would have only heard about before.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: You know, it is what it is. It's like I
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: wouldn't look too far into it. It's my point, you know,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: let's see all hold off on Keishan. With the recap,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: we'll kind of talk about the Wardly Hooney fight, which
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: was very interesting. Michael Angeletta one over the weekend. It
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: was was it the idea? Was it some sort of
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: vacant idea? So that was that was a pretty easy fight.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Moreno took care of Aaron Boone as well, who's obviously
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: a veteran. Haz Martinez and Mario Hernandez. That was a
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: that was a pretty competitive fight there. You know, it
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: was what were the scorecards? It was kind of seventy
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: seven seventy five for Hernandez and then there was a draw,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: I believe. So that was a really competitive fight. This
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: is the pro box card. We also had a draw
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: between Gonzalez and Morales. Uh Thigo Ramirez. Gonzalez was you know,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: I think he's I think he was like eight o
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: or nine to o or something like that. It was competitive,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: you know, once again, it was like both fighters got
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: fifty eight fifty six and then there was a draw.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: I favor Gonzales in that one, but that it was close,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: you know, it was definitely close. But yeah, onto that
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: heavyweight fight, and like I said, it did give you
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: vibes of Deontay Waller. I'm I said, Dante Deontay Wilder.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: It definitely gave you those type of vibes because you
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: clearly see, you know, Wardley like as the rounds went on,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: just loosen the rounds clearly right. You know, it was
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: a slow first round. Whone he looked like he was
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: winning that round, but he got he got hit late,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: and it looked like he kind of got hurt. So
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: I would I gave Wardley that round, but it was
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: tough to give Wardly too many rounds after that. Whoney
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: had that high guard defense. He liked to throw the
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: left hooks. He was doing that very well Wardley, So
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I gave the second round for sure to like I said,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: I don't, I don't think you can give Wardley too
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: many rounds past that. There was some good he put
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: in some good bodywork, like in the third round, jabs
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: and bodywork. He was jabbing pretty well. But Whomy's right
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: handed left hook were really, you know, really effective. And
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Wardley just had his hands down the whole time, and
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: even when he'd be on the ropes, he'd barely cover up,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: if at all, and he was just so nonchalant about it,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: just getting tagged and obviously Whoney may not have that
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: much power, but he was tagging him, and I thought
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: he was doing a good job of in a sense boxing,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: like being very respond possible with that high guard. And
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: then Land is his you know, get the better of
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: any kind of exchange for the most part, like in
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: the fourth round there was two way action. Wardly did
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: jet pretty well, but I thought whom he was getting
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: the better of, you know, like I said, the right
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: hand and the left hooks, and you could see as
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: the seventh and the eighth and the ninth, you could
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: kind of see shit. Even in the fifth maybe that
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: he looked Wardley was looking tired, like I don't know
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: if he trained on this, I really don't. He didn't
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: look in tip top shape. He had some extras around,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: you know, you know those extras that kind of lay
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: over the trunks on the hips. Is there a pause
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: in there that I need to take? I'm not sure,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: but but you know, Wardly tenth round came around and
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: or the you know, huge right hand during an exchange.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: It was kind of a weird. It was a bad
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: camera angle right away because he dropped him right and
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: you could see the punch. But you're like, it's like
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you saw the back of
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Wardley and you're like, what shot are we on right now? Dude?
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: I can't see the count. I can't see the fighter down.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Is he okay? Then they go to a side shot
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: like of the like people you know you saw, you know,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: you saw Frank and Eddie. Like it was like, why
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: are we showing the promoters right now? Like I don't
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: know what the hell happened there, if there was like
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: a camera failure or what or that's the only angle
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: they had that they wanted to show. I don't know.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: It was really weird, like right away because you're like, dude,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: I want to see the guy who's on the crown,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: like how's he doing? You know, like is he gonna?
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: And he didn't make the count and he, by the way,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: he didn't beat the count. I know there was some
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: because of the bad camera angle I did actually see.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I searched it because I watched it later at night
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: on a Saturday, and so I did search it on
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Twitter a little bit, and I saw some conspiracy stuff
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: coming out because they didn't want to show he you know,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: he was up and all that they didn't want to
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: show it. You know, it's a big conspiracy. And like
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: I said, the angles we were shitty right away because
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: like I said, I was just size the back of Wardley,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: so it was like what are we doing here? You know?
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: And then like I said, they panned that other shot
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: like the side of the ring, and you're like, dude,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: I don't care about I want to see how you
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: know the fighter's doing. But he didn't beat the count,
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: or at least it was very close, right at least
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: it was really really close. So and he didn't make
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: a huge, huge, huge deal of it either. He clearly
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: was hurt. Could they have let him go a little
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: bit more? I mean, okay, if that's if they just
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: let him go a little bit longer and get potentially concussed, okay,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: and then it wouldn't be a conspiracy theory. Is that
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: what you're saying? You know? So to me, he was
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: hurt and he didn't I don't think he got up
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: in time. He was really close to it. And when
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: you're close, you know, it is what it is like,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: you gotta get up by eight. That's your best bet.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: And no matter how you think the count went or
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: I know like Fabio. Uh, you know, like I think
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: he quote tweeted a a tweet that had the timing,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: or maybe that was just his tweet that had the
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: clock right there when he got knocked down, and maybe
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: you don't agree with that exact timing, Right, you're still
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: not up by eight. If you're up by eight, it's
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: gonna be hard to teat you. You know. So now
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: if you're not walking right and you're looking really lackadaisical, like, oh,
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I'm out of it. Yeah, I can't even I'm stopping it,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: you know, if you get up by eight, but excuse me.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: We we We've seen plenty of guys get up by
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: eight and then they just are so out of it
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: that they stopped to fight, you know. So I didn't
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: see a big wave of the conspiracy stuff, but just
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: off of the camera angles, they were like, dude, they're
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: not showing it. I was more frustrated that they weren't
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: showing it off of like a technical issue, Like I said,
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know if there's actually something wrong with the
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: other cameras or what. I don't know why they went
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: to the side shot. So I guess it was kind
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: of weird, but to me, it looked like they just
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: it was just shitty camera or whatever, you know what
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: I mean. So it's more like when I say technical issue,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I don't mean I don't know if there was a
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: technical issue, but I don't think they purposely were like,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: all right, dude, let's show the back of the fighter
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: who just knocked that guy down, and they won't show
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: we can't show the guy because he's because when you
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: saw the replay and they showed it, clearly he was hurt,
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: like really badly. So dude fought really hard though he
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: put up I mean, like I said, he won most
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: of the rounds. Clearly, he doesn't have a lot of power,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: but wardly got it done. And you know, his defense
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: is going to be an issue, so I think we're
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: starting to see his ceiling obviously, But I mean, he
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: was getting hit like he was getting hit clean his day,
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: like it was. Some of the shots are like, dude,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: if this guy had some real power, he'd be out
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: or at least not down multiple times because he just
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: had no damn defense whatsoever. But that said, you know,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: it still was a great shot, you know, and he
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: still got it done, and he was still like you know,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: looking for it wasn't I don't know, he kind of
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: was hunting in a little bit. Also, Mike Perez won
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: a couple other you know, the he'res O'Leary and Dylan.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: I think that was a close one on was that
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: a close odds odds going in? I can't remember. I
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: want to say it was or somewhat close. But either way,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you know, it'll be interesting to see, you know, who
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: they put Wordly in with next, you know, because like
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I said that this dude had power. You know, it
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have went good for him, But that was that,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: you know, I looked at Hooney like a very like
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: an upset potential. I remember talking to John about it,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: and I was definitely eyeballing that, like, man, I don't know, dude,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: like this might be an upset. But I heard multiple
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: people talk about, you know, does he have the chin
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: to hold up you know, and and and just can
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: he make it through the whole fight, you know, without
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: getting full on hurt. And so there was there was
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: some potential for that where you're like, eh, I don't know,
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But as far as Larry,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Like I said, he did really good,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: but I'm you know, it didn't really blow me away
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: by any stretch. Just to kind of talk a little
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: bit about that, Let's see, was there any other items
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: that I wanted to talk about besides the obvious one?
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Oh to uh to saunt there was a pretty shitty card,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: but you saw I can't remember who had the card,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: but that he won. I thought he won cleanly. But
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I remember there being a really shitty, shitty card in
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: that fight. I think that's about it. But onto the
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: guy who missed weight by a mile and I and
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: I kind of think that that's that type of stuff
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: bugs you more when somebody misses the weight by so far.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: It's just like dude, like really and like you know,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: he said he tried to lose it, and then it
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: was the same he got on the scale, same weight,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: try it again, same weight, try again, same weight, and
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: so you know, if that's true, and you know, it
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: didn't seem like he was trying to make the weight
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: all the way up to the weigh in, I will
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: say that. And Samson did say that, you know that
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: he could kind of tell that was the case. But
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: I think it's a lot of this stuff is just optics, right,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Like when you're talking when you press abdul Mason and
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: know he's not exactly on your development level just yet,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: like the fight could happen, but it's probably what happened,
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: you know, even what Bob said, right, I'm not saying
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: three years, but you're pressing him. You're talking about Davonte.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: You're pressing dudes out of weight class that you can't
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: make anymore. Now, he says, you know, I thought I
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: was good. You know, you heard from you know, his
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: trainer Bomax saying he came into the camp in great shape,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: you know, and they didn't think he was you know,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: the way they put it that he was going to
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: make the weight. And then once you try to cut
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: off that last chunk of weight, that's when he said
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: that it you know, that there was an issue and
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: that he's like it was getting really hard all of
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: a sudden, He's like, man, this one kind of surprised me,
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: you know. And then obviously there was negotiations going on,
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: and in the end, De Los Santo's Sampson they decided,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: you know, that they can't do it anymore. They're just done.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: And that the fact that you know, they were still
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: kind of I think they had worked out the money,
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: but I don't know if they had worked out the
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: next day weighing and all that. I did see a
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: quote I think it was from ring I've been making
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: this way. This is from Keishaan. Obviously, I've been making
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: this way for over four years now. I just outgrew it.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: I just outgrew them, you know, he said, I tried,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: and you know, when he's good on the scale, I
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: get it. It's fight week. You know, you get on
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: the scale and you're gonna to me, it's just like
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: you're still gonna have pictures of you, so I guess
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: you want to look like you know, I thought the
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: fight was gonna happen, you know, but he was just
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: so not. I think it's like I said, it's the
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: optics of how, you know, questioning how hard he tried
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: to make the weight, which I think is a valid
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: question that I don't think we know the exact answer to.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: But it did appear that, let's say, the half hour
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: hour before the weigh in, that he wasn't trying to
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: make any And so in that sense, we've seen fighters go,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: you know what, I'll just take it on the chin.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to kill myself and hurt myself in
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: the ring, right, but when you blow up I over
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: like four when it's four pounds, dude, that's just like,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: what are we doing? Did four pounds? Like that's really unprofessional?
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: And so it is what it is, like I said,
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I I remember the Marquez fight with with
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Mayweather because I mentioned Mayweather earlier, and it seemed like
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Golden Boy, Richard Schaefer and them that they had just
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: kind of we're kind of messing with with Marquez. And
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: I remember even at the presser, Floyd looked at the
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: like the poster behind him. He said, it's a welterweight fight,
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: you know, because he was real It's like, well, we're
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: gonna decide to catch weight closer to the fight, you know.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: That's what it looked like. There was a there was
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: a weight that was out there, but it was really
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: fagged up, and you know, but he did get paid
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: and whatnot. And I don't think anybody thought after seeing
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: them fight or even before really that you know, Floyd
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: is just better than Marcus because you know, of the style,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: no matter what, you know, it just wasn't going to
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: be ever a good style for Marcus anyway, I guess
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: it's the nonchalantanis. Like I said, during the week, you're
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: you're you're trying to be a bully and you're trying
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: to and I get doing that, but then you're then
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: you're not going to make weight, and then you you
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: you kind of blow it off and then and all
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, puff, it's it's done, and now you're
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: not even fighting in front of your home crowd. And
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: then the after math, which you know, I I haven't
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: seen a video and I'm not saying it doesn't exist,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: send it to me if it does, but I haven't
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: seen a video where it first started, so I really
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: don't know exactly who, what where, you know what I mean.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: We saw a video, We saw some stuff, no doubt.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: Clearly he got you know, attacked in some form, you know,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: and all Bright said in that interview that he was
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: about to swing back, but his you know, they broke
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: it up and whatever. It just the optics. You missed weight.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: You're nonchalant, and then there's a there's a dispute, physical
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: altercation from your brother's fight. Like it's just it's just
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: a shitty look, you know, no matter how it actually started.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: It's just not gonna look good on you Ki show.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: So you I don't know he's going to one forty
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: obviously now, but I don't know. He just dropped the bag.
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: It was. It was really disappointing. And I don't blame
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Delo Santo's you know, and he said the safety. You know,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: he could tell that he hadn't really tried to make
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: the weight up until the way way in and maybe
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: what Keishan says is true about him trying to grind
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: it off and then it was just the same weight
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: every time. Well, as a wrestler, I do remember that feeling.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: But when you look at his face, when you look
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: at his body, when you look at you know, like
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: it didn't look like he had tried to really do
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: it like as hard as you can. But like I said,
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: there is a strategy to that as well, because it's like, well, shit,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: if I'm going to kill myself, there's no point in
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: doing it. I might as well just take the fines,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: getting some money and we'll get this fight on. You know,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: that's usually what you know assumingly that that's that's what
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: would happen. So, you know, like I said, it is
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: what it is. A lot of people misweight. You know
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: that that's not the craziest thing to ever happen, right,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: we know that, But it just the whole optics of it.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: He just dropped the ball, dude. It just a lot
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: of his stuff. He was saying midweek and just saying
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: overall at the way class it just comes across as like, oh,
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: really great, you know, like I don't mean shit to me,
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: you know, So that was disappointing. Obviously, I did forget
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: to mention Calliam Simpson won as well. Hemp Hill beat Jeffers.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: I did see that fight that was That was a
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: I think it was on Sky over there. I saw
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: it on YouTube on Monday. Actually I think I watched that,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: I remember if I remember correctly, But either way, yeah, Kishan,
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: you know up at one forty now you know, it
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: is what it is. It's not to say that he
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: can't keep doing his thing, but yeah, man, it was
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: just uh, it was just weird. Even the optics of like,
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: of course you're going to eat, right, but even the
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: optics of him just coming he just acted like nothing happened,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: like like at the weigh in, like I said, the
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: way and I understand it was being videoed and all that,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: and you got your thinking you're gonna fight, so you're
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: still gonna have that that attitude, you're still gonna have that.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: But to me, it's just like he stepped on the
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: scale and it was just it's just nonchalant. It's like, dude,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: aren't you kind of mad that you missed the weight?
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: Like aren't you like a little bothered by this at all?
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: You know? So, like I said, I don't really know
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: exactly how hard he tried to make the weight. It's
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: tough to say, you know, but yeah, just shitty, just
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: really shitty way to to go about the whole fucking week.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: And really it was really I was really disappointed, very disappointed,
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: because you know, like he's an upcoming young fighter and
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of you know, there's a lot of positivity
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: with the guy man, and he's really starting to like
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: turn the corner as far as a pro and taking
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: care of business, knocking people out, drawing a really good gait.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: You know, like the potential was there and it doesn't
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: mean it's gone. But yeah, anyway, let's see here. That's
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, we'll see where Fabio goes. Like I said,
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: if a guy has power. He better brush up on
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: some defense because and maybe he just he was tired
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: and he you know, he had he didn't even want
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: to put his hands up. I don't know. But anyway,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: this weekend, like I said, no, Nito Donare returns in
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: a fight he should win. Andy Kruz is in a
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: pretty interesting fight for his uh you know where he's
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: at in his career obviously. Richard to the Hitchens takes
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: on George cambosas you know, I think that you know,
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, Paro did give him a good fight last
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: time out. I will say that, uh like a like
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: a pretty good fight. I'm not saying that it was
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: you know, like could have went either way. I'm definitely
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: not saying that, but you know, I thought it was
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: a pretty good fight for me anyway. And that Lamos
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: as it pata, So yeah, he's been on a nice,
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: nice little run anyway. Cambosa's, like I said, what does
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: he really add beyond a measuring stick? And look how
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: weasy I beat him and that type of thing. And
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: he's a faded name. You know, it is what it is.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not, as you can tell, I'm not not all
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: that excited about the fight. But I will be kind
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: of tuned in on Richardson see where he's at. You know,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: he is a very good fighter, you know. The power
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: stuff is that is that gonna be an issue? You know,
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I don't think. I don't think
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: he's gonna stop him. But I think Richardson Hitchins is
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: just too skilled for him and he'll win, you know,
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: by the decision. Andy Cruz is an action What is
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: this his like sixth or seventh fight he's taken on
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Miss Shiro. Dude doesn't really have much power, you know,
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: He's I I think Cruise will win this fight. That's
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: not going out on the limb. But you know, I
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: do want to kind of you know, I I do
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: like Cruise. I do want to kind of where he
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: goes in general, you know, when it comes to being
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: a professional all that, because he's got he's definitely got
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: some potential Andy Cruz, but it's not something that you know, like,
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much of a guy threat this
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: guy really is for being honest, you know, but we'll
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: see now. Is because I actually heard from a decent
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: source that Ernesto Mercado is no longer fighting this weekend.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Is that true, I'm looking, I'm looking Israel Mercado in
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: Brandon Pizarro. That's probably that is the closest fight of
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: the Actually, let me see the odds real quick. That's
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: that's got to be the closest odds of the whole weekend.
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: And that's the thirteenth. Yes, it is is actually minus
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: one sixteen, both of them minus one fifteen minus one ten.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: Tabati is back to that action, O'Har Davies is back
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: in action. Gorsh and Aloti elote that actually is I'm
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: looking at the odds now, that actually could be a
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: really good fight on the on her card. John Fernandez
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: and Ricardo Nunez man there that might be okay, that
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: might be okay there there could be a competitiveness in there.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: Donare is a favorite? You see Andres Campos plus two
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: thirty plus two fifty Campos, you know, he doesn't have
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of power, He's not it's a fight that
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: nol Nido should win. But you know, will he win it? That?
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, based off of it's tough
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: to say, you know, not that this guy, you know,
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: has a bunch of victories where you're like, ooh man,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: this you know, he he's lost. I mean he lost
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: his Sny Sonny Edwards a few years back. You know
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: that's probably the you know it was cleanly, you know,
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: not that the guy looked like a nothing in there, right,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: But he also just lost Jose Alito last year, Jos
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Alito Venezuela, a nineteen one to one fighter in Edison Martinez.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: So he just doesn't like it's there for him to
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: win the fight. No, Nito, right, it's definitely there. But
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: and I remember when this guy announced, it's like boom
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: and here we are, you know, but it's almost been
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: let me look, I think it's almost been about two years. Actually,
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: let's see here. Yeah, yeah, almost almost he lost he
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: lost it well anyway, really quick, but that was three
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: years ago. But twenty twenty three, Alexandro Santiago beat him.
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: So it's really tough to like. Maybe Nonito is just
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: you know, so rusty, and he hasn't looked great in general.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I just don't believe in this guy's power. You know,
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: it's Andre's compost, but maybe he could pull the upset.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: I think it based it would be based off Nonino
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: just being so washed and so Rusty, but I am
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: going to pick no Nito for the record, I am
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: picking Nonito. So yeah, kind of a light not a
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: kind of a light weekend, you know, very light weekend.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Obviously we did have you know, the internet obviously June, right,
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: So that's that's the induction for the Hall of Fame
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: International Boxing Hall of Fame. And you know we had
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Manny and Vinnie Paz and Michael Nunn, my guy, Michael
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: Nunn from Iowa. That was my guy. When James Tony
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: did that to him, I wasn't happy. I was not
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: a happy man. But that was my guy, dude, that
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: was my Midwest, upper Midwest guy right there. Man Michael
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: man Mary, Joe Sanders, Yessica Chavez, uh my fist. It's
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: like and Kenny Bayless, Ross Greenberg and Randy Gordon as well.
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, pretty like Manny and Michael obviously
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: are really good. You know, Paz, I'll pass on that.
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: Let's say that I'm just gonna pass on that, you know,
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: should he be in the Hall of Fame, I mean,
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: God blessed the guy. Man right, you can tell some
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: stories about the guy, and he's got That's why there
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: was a movie you know, but to be fair, like,
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: there's no fucking way it should be in the Hall
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: of Fame anyway. Canelo bud on Netflix? Hell yeah, thank goodness, gracious, Okay,
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: I'm so happy. I was getting a little worried, but
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: thank goodness. All right. So that that's big man. And
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: like I mentioned earlier, you know, the co feature popped
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: off again as we know, with Tyson and Paul, and
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: it got it popped off so much now it's gonna
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: be all by itself as the main event coming up
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: in July. July is about to pop off, as we
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: I mentioned, as we get into June, it does start
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: to fall off. It doesn't mean there's not good fights,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: like any good fights, because there is there is, but
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: some of them, like I mentioned an undercard fighter, a
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: co feature. I'm like, oh, I'm actually looking forward to
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: that more. But like, I'm really happy so to hit
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: them with July and then to come back in September.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: And I've already talked to a couple of casual fans
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: and they're like, dude, I'm out, dude, that that that
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: Tyson stream sucked, you know, And remember they did the NFL.
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: They weren't going to lead with the NFL. Right, they
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: did NFL games, dude, So they tightened that up. They
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: tightened that up. They weren't ready for it. If you
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: look at it, that that happens with anyone trying to
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: stream a big, big event that you don't know exactly
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: how big is big it is, but it is going
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: to be big. Every company, no matter how big, usually
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: has an issue. Now, I guess you could say Amazon
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: was pretty slick with their shit. But other than I mean,
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: look at their company though, But other than that, it's
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: like we've seen it, it happens, you know, So hopefully
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: there's no issues coming up, right, But Canelo and Bud
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: that's that's phenomenal. I'm so happy they got that done.
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: So on Netflix, man, hopefully it's a good under card.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: And Turkey came out and I guess Dana's back in
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: the fold now. Turkey came out and was like, from
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: this point on, I don't want to see any more
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry type boxing matches where one fighter is
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: running around the ring and the others chasing him, which
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: there is a thing of boxing on the outside right
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: and making your opponent reset and never get to set
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: right and then just boxing his head off and then
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: just straight up running. Right. But and there are some
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: times where some fighters are so defensive and so on
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: the move, and it is tough to even cut the
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: ring off them because they're not trying to win, They're
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: just trying to survive. I get that, but there's plenty
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: of boxers that can't cut the ring off too, so
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: it can't be just the outside fight or his fault
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: every single time. Anyway, he says that, right, you don't
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: want to, they don't want the optics of that. It's
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: over with that. So yeah, he was really big on
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: that we can no longer support these kind of fights
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: in reat season in the ring. We want a sport
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: fighters who leave it in the ring and fight with
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: their heart and pride. So there you go. So yeah,
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm just I'm just happy it's on Netflix, man
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: Tale femo. Right, So he ended up, you know, trying
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: to say I'm sorry and shit like that, like that
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: dude in court, you know, trying to say he's sorry,
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: singing and stuff. After he made those comments to Turkey,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: seemed like he was just like, hey, actually I do
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: want that fight. I'm sorry, my bad, you know, that's
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: what it seemed like to me, but then you know,
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: it just all of a sudden, it didn't happen, and
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: they weren't fighting back. They weren't saying no, that's bullshit, dude.
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: They changed a contract, and so you're wondering, like, what
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: the fuck is going on? So, and you know his
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: Keith Connley, co manager of Tale Female Tale Femo. Unfortunately
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: Tayo won't be fighting in August for personal reasons that
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: I will keep confidential. We want to thank his excellently,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. We planned on fighting, but with what
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: was going on, he wanted to make sure he was
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent right mentally and physically. In August was
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: a little too quick turnaround. He said, I expect Tao
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: to be back later this year, bigger and better than ever.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: So that's that's that. But then Tale came on and said,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: the reason why I didn't take that fight is because
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Haini's religion that he's gonna favor the Muslim and I'm
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: not gonna be able to get the call, so I'm
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: not fighting there. Well, you know, I mean, clearly Turkey
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: was big on Chirass. We know that they showed it
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: right he's like getting up, you know, during the fight
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: and going over the top, and they were talking about
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: this guy like he was the shit. So yeah, clearly
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: there's something there, like, yeah, if you're into a religion
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: and that person's into religion, yeah, you're gonna probably be like,
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: hey man, this is my guy. But like you knew
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: that going in, you know, So why are you singing?
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I just think to blame the religion only.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: And then look what he just put out as a
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: message tale He said, we don't want to runners? You know, well,
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: is that what he was taught? Was hany involved in that?
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: You know? So I don't know. I just don't think
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: it's a good enough reason if you don't want to
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: fight inside he just say it, but it's just too
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: much of like, I don't know, it just doesn't ring true.
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: So he's not it's too quick of a turnaround, but
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: it's actually tail comes out and say the reason why
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: I didn't do it is because I wouldn't get a
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: fair shake over there. Now, if you ask Carlos Odamas,
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: did he get a fair shake over there? But that's fair,
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: that is fair. But the whole point with signing with
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: him is you kind of you didn't know some of this.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: So when that hany stuff was coming up, you knew,
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: you knew that you know those that that is a fact.
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: So I don't know it just it didn't ring true.
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: But then we hear some speculation about PBC, right, so
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know. By the way, if Cruz wins, there's
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: a there's a possibility that Martaya, who now because Lomachenko retired,
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: is going to be the full champ. He had the
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: interim champ, so Cruise and Martaya sign me up for that.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: Now he's got to obviously get by which leads me
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: he's got to get by his opponent this weekend. Momachenko
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: hangs him up at thirty seven years old. I did
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: like how it was put that, you know, he he
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: was overrated for a while, but to the point where
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: I think they overrated him so much that he became
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: underrated right right away. Like to fight Solito that early,
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: and I'll always say he came to like he that
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: was a fight he needed. He definite needed that fight.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: And because if you look at the first six rounds,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: the last six rounds and how much he learned in
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: that fight. It was a you could see the transition happening.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: So and then you know, like Gary Russell Junior, you
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: know that was that was a damn good win. What's
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: Gary Russell Junior's best win? Does Gary? Just beating Gary
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Russell Junior get you into the Hall of Fame, you
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? And of course he's gonna be
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame, right, it's not even I mean,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: whether you think he should be in there or not,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Like then, he pez just got in
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. So he's going in there like
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: it or not. And we're gonna say that about a
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: lot of fighters. But if you look at like a
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: guy like Spence, you know, who grabbed a bunch of
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: belts against a bunch of solid fighters, and the one
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: loss he has is against an elite fighter, one of
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: the best fighters of the generation. Right now, Obviously the
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: Rigado you know that fight was his best win, but
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: we know that it's not. You know, the weight played
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: a big, big part in that one, you could see, right,
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: But that was a great performance by him regardless, right,
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: But like the lineal champion, he never really was lineal.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: The Jorge Lenares fight, you know, it was a good fight.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: But when that's one of your best wins is Garry
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: Russell Junior hoy Lenares. I saw some people saying Prime Lenaries, bro,
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: and it's like, well, Prime Lenaris doesn't, like I mean,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: you can an argument. You know, he was already he
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: had already showed him what he was before that fight, obviously,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: because he's a guy that had a lot of talent
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: on ours but never really lived up to it ever,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: like all the way up, because he just keep getting
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: knocked the fuck out, you know, so it is what
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: it is, like, of course he's going to roll put
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: it the best. Loma's a little like Jason Williams in
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: the NBA. Watched his highlight reel with the Kings, and
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: you could assume he's among the best point guards ever.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: Could do mind blowing stuff. The actual outcomes were a
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: little different. There was substance, but the style made it such,
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: you know, so impressive basically, and you know in his
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: like if you look at Haney and the tail fight, right,
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: and if you look at how he closed, especially the
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: tail fight, but like Lopez beat him. But if you
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: look at the first part where he was downloading information,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: he wasn't doing a damn thing. But then he came
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: on and fought really well, but in that last round
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: he just fell off. You know, the Haini fight was
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: the very skilled, high level fun fight. But if anybody
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: says that's a robbery, you're clearly in or up however
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: you want to put it your You're clearly have your
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: head up Lomachenko's ass. And some of this stuff has
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: to do with race, as we know. You know, glove
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: can got all this credit before he beat anybody of real, real,
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: real substance. And what I mean by that is he
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: was getting Hagler and and all this stuff before he
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: had beaten, before he had beaten like a guy like
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: Danny Jacobs, which that warranted a rematch in that fight.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: So some of this stuff is just ignorant, racist stuff
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: where they overvalue people, whereas they could have been talking
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: about covid leb at that time. Hey dude, look what
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: cold like glovekin man? Hell yeah, fun fire to watch
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: body puncher, all this stuff, and he proved himself against
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: Canelo in that first fight. I'm not I'm not dogging
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: him at all, but they were adding introm you know,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: titles to his reign of titles right to his in
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: the row defenses, you know, so they were they were
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: stretching the rules and over just breaking the rules whatever
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: those rules are, right. So but he was damn good, right,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: he was damn good. But in the most even fight Rigo,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: that wasn't even fight going in. As we know, you
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: got Russell and you got Lenares. That's your best two wins.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: Like I don't know, I just that's that's it's not
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: a top ten talent. And even looking at the talent,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: I don't look at him as a top ten talent
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: fighter of all time. Like I see you know, people saying,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: so Lumachenka was a damn good fighter. He was in
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: a lot of entertaining fights. If he would have fought
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: a little better in one of the really in both
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: of those fights, maybe he goes one and one with
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: Tailor and Hani. But yeah, like I said, if you
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: think the Hani fight was a robbery, you're just not
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: you're either just a fanboy of him and you only
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: watch a handful of fighters and now you're into boxing
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: and you came late or whatever, or like I said,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: it just has to do with race, and you're just
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: gonna overvalue anybody, right, That's the thing. You could have
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: been looking at covid Lev and then all this time
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: we could have been saying Usik, like Usik had to
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: grind his way to respect. Meanwhile, this dude had a
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: ton of skills too. I'm not saying nobody was talking
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: about him, but they were just putting on Loma on
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: this pedestal of like I don't know, and listen, Gervonte's
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: team Mayweather clearly didn't want to fight Lomo when when
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: Germonte was more green, right, and that was evident the
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: Mikey Garcia then Noel style wise, and I always say,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: just look at that photo with them too. That's why
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: that fight never happened. Mikey Garcia, you know what a
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: beat Loacheko? What could should have? Who knows? Right? But
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's really up for debate anyway. You know,
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: like in his short span of fights, because he started
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: when you fight Solito that early in your career, dude,
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: you got to respect that. And like I said, clearly,
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: the footwork, you know, really good punch variation, right, pretty
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: damn good defender. Just a really skilled guy, very high
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: level skill. But he's not like you couldn't even put
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: him in the top fifty. In fact, I saw many
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: historians not even put him in the top run hundred.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: But who cares. That's the thing. If you overdo it
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: with some of this shit, it's like then people start
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: to not like the fighter after a while because it's like, dude,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: what are we doing here? You know. So he's a
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: damn good fighter. I would have loved to see you know,
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: one and two at lightweight right now. I would have
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: loved to see it. But you know, his heart wasn't
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: it anymore. He had a damn good career, like I said,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: to start out, even in a loss to Solito, like
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: and there's things you can say, the weight, in the roughness,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: but it is what it is. That that's part of
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: going through fights like that, you know, especially when you're
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: young like that. So a damn good fighter. Hell of
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: an amateur, and he definitely will be remembered, very high
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: level guy, elite level. No, because like I said, his
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: most even fights Russell, Lenares, Tao and Haney, Like, you know,
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: he did really good against Russell, but Russell he was
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: over valued a little bit too. Russell's a damn good fighter.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: But what's his best win. He was just so inactive,
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: you know, so I think winning those belts at different
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: weight classes, taking on a hot you know, he took
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: on some really good fighters, whether he won or lost.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm gonna get out of here, enjoy the fights.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: Gonna try to be back normal time next Tuesday. But
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: either way, have a great weekend. Peace,
