- 0:25Speaker 1: he got his revenge, I should say. In the return match,
- 0:29Speaker 1: it was a close fight, very competitive. I do see
- 0:33Speaker 1: some folks saying they do not want to see the
- 0:36Speaker 1: rematch the trilogy. I disagree with that. I disagree wholeheartedly
- 0:43Speaker 1: with that. I definitely think a rematch is more than warranted,
- 0:50Speaker 1: to be honest with you. But everyone has their own ofinion. Oops.
- 0:56Speaker 1: And we will get into all of that not long
- 0:59Speaker 1: from now. We'll talk about, of course the undercard as well.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Ortiz My Druma Caada Yell came up with a big win. Yeah,
- 1:11Speaker 1: we'll talk about Calliam Smith looked really good. I thought
- 1:14Speaker 1: it was his best uh. I thought it was his
- 1:16Speaker 1: best performance, really, I really did. I thought that was
- 1:19Speaker 1: his best performance as a pro more than likely in
- 1:24Speaker 1: my opinion anyway, And then we'll talk about the Tank
- 1:28Speaker 1: Lamont Roach fight coming up this weekend. There is some
- 1:32Speaker 1: other action as well, Uh the undercard. I'm really looking
- 1:35Speaker 1: forward to a couple of those fights. Vellanzuela Russell and
- 1:40Speaker 1: Play You Martin are definitely some fights I'm looking forward to.
- 1:44Speaker 1: And like I said, we'll just be kind of talking

- 3:36Speaker 1: hell of a car, you know, and just like anything,
- 3:40Speaker 1: some of the fights turned out even maybe better than
- 3:43Speaker 1: we thought. Some of them not as much, you know.
- 3:49Speaker 1: We we we did have two different fighters, uh, you know,
- 3:57Speaker 1: with some health issues, so you know, that was a
- 4:03Speaker 1: little bit of a bummer, but not really. I mean,
- 4:05Speaker 1: obviously Becoli coming in there, you know, on short notice.
- 4:12Speaker 1: It sounded great on paper man Becoley, oh my god,
- 4:16Speaker 1: you know, but obviously it turned out not to be
- 4:19Speaker 1: all that good. No, you know, no shaming Joseph Barker,
- 4:23Speaker 1: that's for sure, But I do want to get into
- 4:28Speaker 1: John's gonna come on in just a short little bit,
- 4:30Speaker 1: but I do want to get into the bevol Bevil.
- 4:37Speaker 1: I should say, somebody corrected me. It's been said like
- 4:41Speaker 1: three three different ways. Same with the better bev You know,
- 4:45Speaker 1: when he first came out on the scene, it was
- 4:47Speaker 1: better Beef, then it was Batterbiev, and I've heard other
- 4:52Speaker 1: pronunciations as well. But I really think this fight came
- 4:56Speaker 1: down as funny as it sounds to the first two
- 5:00Speaker 1: rounds as far as how you scored it. Not the
- 5:02Speaker 1: whole fight itself, obviously, but if you gave Bevall the
- 5:07Speaker 1: first two rounds, there's a good chance it was a
- 5:11Speaker 1: draw or you had him win him by one. If
- 5:15Speaker 1: you didn't and it was one to one, then that's
- 5:18Speaker 1: gonna affect the scorecard, obviously. That's something that I did
- 5:22Speaker 1: notice talking to a few people seeing him post their
- 5:25Speaker 1: score cards, and you know that type of thing. I
- 5:28Speaker 1: did give better be of the first round. I thought
- 5:35Speaker 1: he landed the better shots, but it was very close.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I gave Bevall the second round. I liked his jab,
- 5:42Speaker 1: a few nice power punches, and I gave let's see
- 5:48Speaker 1: here it was a two way round in the third round,
- 5:53Speaker 1: but I thought to close the round. I did think
- 5:59Speaker 1: both to the head and body, the heavier shots were
- 6:02Speaker 1: better BF, and from the third round until the sixth
- 6:08Speaker 1: I gave better B of every round. I thought he
- 6:12Speaker 1: was starting to really cut off the ring, land the
- 6:14Speaker 1: harder punches. In the fifth round he outworked him early
- 6:20Speaker 1: and then late multiple clean shots. It's not that I
- 6:24Speaker 1: didn't think Bevall was having any success, because I did
- 6:27Speaker 1: think he was having a success. Like in the sixth
- 6:29Speaker 1: round he landed jabs and a few nice combos, but
- 6:33Speaker 1: I think better BF shook him up with a nice
- 6:37Speaker 1: right hand A late combinations kind of stole the round
- 6:41Speaker 1: for me. But that was that was a close round
- 6:44Speaker 1: because you could have you could have liked, you know,
- 6:48Speaker 1: what Beval was doing. You know, he did land combos
- 6:51Speaker 1: a few of them. Then I gave Bevall the seventh.
- 6:56Speaker 1: In the eighth close rounds busier, cleaner, I think lake
- 7:03Speaker 1: down the stretch. There was some clean shots in the
- 7:05Speaker 1: seventh to give Bevo the advantage. The ninth round I
- 7:10Speaker 1: gave to Baball as well. He kind of was doing
- 7:12Speaker 1: a stick and move by that time, and kind of
- 7:15Speaker 1: combination of stick and move, and then he started letting
- 7:18Speaker 1: his hands go more. And that was kind of the
- 7:20Speaker 1: big question going into this fight, you know, was he
- 7:25Speaker 1: going to when he needed to let his hands go
- 7:28Speaker 1: more and land more, Because if you are going to
- 7:31Speaker 1: be on the outside, moving in and out and whatnot
- 7:33Speaker 1: laterally all that stuff, trying to stay off the ropes,
- 7:37Speaker 1: try not to be shelled up, you're gonna have to
- 7:40Speaker 1: land more punches then, and some of them are gonna
- 7:44Speaker 1: have to be of the variety of clean, hard shots,
- 7:48Speaker 1: and that's something that in the first fight he didn't
- 7:51Speaker 1: do as much down the stretch, so you got to
- 7:53Speaker 1: give him a lot of credit here. So like I said,
- 7:56Speaker 1: you know, I could see four to two or five
- 8:00Speaker 1: to one through sixth for better bv and then seventh, eighth,
- 8:05Speaker 1: and ninth I gave the befall I gave the tenth
- 8:10Speaker 1: to better Beev. It was a very very close round.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Both fighters had their moments. I just I thought better
- 8:19Speaker 1: Beev finally got his jab going, but once again the
- 8:23Speaker 1: lands to the body and head that did it for me.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Now Beval in a very another very close round, I
- 8:29Speaker 1: gave him the eleventh. He just landed like the harder shot,
- 8:36Speaker 1: and I think that's what took the round. You could
- 8:39Speaker 1: say better Be. It was more consistent that round, like
- 8:42Speaker 1: for the full round. But I thought the harder shots
- 8:46Speaker 1: were befall. And then same with the twelfth to me,
- 8:52Speaker 1: a late flurry, a big right hand. I thought that
- 8:56Speaker 1: not this. I shouldn't say the same because I gave
- 8:58Speaker 1: it to Uh better Be of the twelfth round. So
- 9:02Speaker 1: whether it was six six, six' five one or seven,
- 9:05Speaker 1: FIVE i did give it either six six or a
- 9:10Speaker 1: slight edge to BETTER. Bf as we, know we had
- 9:15Speaker 1: one one fourteen one, twelve one fifteen one or one
- 9:19Speaker 1: fourteen one, FOURTEEN i should say one, sixteen one, twelve
- 9:22Speaker 1: WHICH i didn't, see eight to four for either guy
- 9:25Speaker 1: uh and then one fifteen one, thirteen and we'll dig
- 9:30Speaker 1: into some of the you, know other these fights and.
- 9:32Speaker 1: WHATNOT i do want to send a message To john.
- 9:36Speaker 1: HERE i just had to make SURE i was up
- 9:39Speaker 1: and ready. Here it was a close, fight and LIKE i,
- 9:45Speaker 1: Said i'm starting to see a lot of people like
- 9:48Speaker 1: these were two very good, fights, right and it was
- 9:52Speaker 1: kind of the cat and mouse and who's going to
- 9:55Speaker 1: be more effective with their game? Plan AND i appreciate.
- 10:00Speaker 1: That and when you think of. Trilogies you, KNOW i don't,
- 10:07Speaker 1: know you, KNOW i think sometimes when when you think of,
- 10:13Speaker 1: that it's like you think it just Gotty ward and
- 10:18Speaker 1: just you, know marcuz. Basket like you, know it's not
- 10:23Speaker 1: always that and and, honestly not every trilogy all the
- 10:28Speaker 1: fights are, good you, Know usually it's the first one
- 10:33Speaker 1: and then it's kind of trying to catch up to that.
- 10:36Speaker 1: One SO i. DID i did think that it was close.
- 10:42Speaker 1: ENOUGH i thought the first one that both had fought
- 10:46Speaker 1: in a tight enough. FIGHT i. DID i did favor
- 10:49Speaker 1: better Be evan that, one, though as far as him
- 10:51Speaker 1: win in the fight because of those last handful of.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Rounds and you, KNOW i think they should do it.
- 11:02Speaker 1: AGAIN i, mean you're one in, one AND I i
- 11:08Speaker 1: think it could go either way in this. One the second,
- 11:11Speaker 1: one WHEREAS i know many people did Think i'm not
- 11:17Speaker 1: gonna say the, majority but some a fair amount of
- 11:19Speaker 1: people did think be vaulted enough to win the first.
- 11:22Speaker 1: One and that's that's you, know everyone's has an, opinion
- 11:27Speaker 1: right seven five, seven five six. SIX i just think
- 11:32Speaker 1: down the stretch he didn't do enough to win the. Fight,
- 11:34Speaker 1: personally this one was a little. Different he started out pretty.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Good then when for a stretch where it was like,
- 11:41Speaker 1: man and they were even talking about on the broadcast like,
- 11:45Speaker 1: wow like he's really doing better much earlier in this.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Fight and so you know by the seventh, round LIKE i,
- 11:53Speaker 1: SAID i gave you, know the, third, fourth, fifth and
- 11:57Speaker 1: sixth to better be of so to me for him
- 12:02Speaker 1: to come back and win the, seventh, eighth and ninth
- 12:05Speaker 1: in the. Eleventh some people gave him the. TWELFTH i.
- 12:08Speaker 1: DIDN'T i did think he made some like A i
- 12:14Speaker 1: wouldn't say, major BUT i thought he did make some
- 12:17Speaker 1: improvements in this, Fight like he did let his hands go,
- 12:21Speaker 1: more he did land cleaner shots compared to what he
- 12:26Speaker 1: had in the first. One so it was a close,
- 12:30Speaker 1: fight AND i do get the sentiment of, man they're
- 12:34Speaker 1: gonna do it. Again and to be, honest with the
- 12:36Speaker 1: trilogies don't usually go one after, another, right all three
- 12:41Speaker 1: in a. Row they usually they usually don't do. That
- 12:45Speaker 1: we saw with The Wild fury that was back to
- 12:47Speaker 1: back two and. Three there was a large gap because
- 12:50Speaker 1: OF covid and then you know the, lawsuit but there
- 12:56Speaker 1: was fights between the first. ONE i think both of
- 12:58Speaker 1: them had two fights in that time and then they
- 13:01Speaker 1: fought the second, one so you, KNOW i just think
- 13:05Speaker 1: IT'S i, know life isn't fair and boxing isn't fair
- 13:09Speaker 1: and all, that BUT i do think that having a
- 13:12Speaker 1: third one in this sense is own any, right you.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Know and it's not like they've been boring fights and you,
- 13:21Speaker 1: know LIKE i, said they haven't been crazy, brawls BUT
- 13:23Speaker 1: i don't expect, that you, know in this. Fight SO
- 13:27Speaker 1: i am in favor of doing a, trilogy as much
- 13:30Speaker 1: As i'd like to See benevetez you, know get a
- 13:33Speaker 1: shot at the. WINNER i did think better Bee of
- 13:36Speaker 1: was gonna, win and LIKE i, said IF i had
- 13:38Speaker 1: to choose someone that won this, FIGHT i would lean
- 13:44Speaker 1: better Be of, six, five, one seventy, five. Whatever But
- 13:48Speaker 1: i'm okay with you, know Bev all winning this time
- 13:52Speaker 1: BECAUSE i think he did make an. Improvement Now i'm
- 13:55Speaker 1: not saying it was light years in, that you. Know
- 13:59Speaker 1: once again teen won twelve like you, know like he won,
- 14:04Speaker 1: eight eight or nine rounds or something like. THAT i
- 14:07Speaker 1: still had it about a, draw and LIKE i, said
- 14:10Speaker 1: IF i had to pick a, winner it would have been.
- 14:13Speaker 1: That but that didn't go down like. That SO i
- 14:17Speaker 1: think it's only fair if if befoll got a, rematch
- 14:21Speaker 1: then you know Better beev gets. One, ACTUALLY i just
- 14:25Speaker 1: Saw john in the fold, here so let's bring him,
- 14:31Speaker 1: in all, Right we're gonna go ahead and bring In.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Sean but, yeah overall it was another competitive, fight and
- 14:42Speaker 1: LIKE i, SAID i think he did make some. Improvements,
- 14:45Speaker 1: hey what's.
- 14:45Speaker 3: Going, On?
- 14:45Speaker 1: John how you, Doing?
- 14:46Speaker 3: Chris how's it? Going not?
- 14:49Speaker 1: Bad not bad at. All i'm thinking about summer with the.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Background, here you, know, yeah, yeah Well i'm In West
- 14:56Speaker 3: virginia right. Now the weather finally started warming up a
- 14:59Speaker 3: Bit sunday afterno and a well blow average cold all
- 15:04Speaker 3: winter as we've talked about, already but warmed, up warmed
- 15:08Speaker 3: up all the warm one day and got way into
- 15:11Speaker 3: the sixties. Today so.
- 15:13Speaker 1: Nice, yeah the last couple of days we didn't have
- 15:15Speaker 1: much snow like we've been talking, too but that. Melted
- 15:18Speaker 1: the last couple of days it. Was it was really.
- 15:20Speaker 1: NICE i think it hit like fifty four yesterday or
- 15:22Speaker 1: something like, that so, yeah so, Similar, yeah, yeah it's really.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Nice and in the FORECAST i think there's like one
- 15:30Speaker 1: like twenty degree, day but, man the two week FORECAST
- 15:34Speaker 1: i see some high fifties. Again and so, Yeah i'm
- 15:37Speaker 1: excited now that now that the negative stuff has, done
- 15:40Speaker 1: the negative fifteen or, anything that's that's that's that's long gone.
- 15:45Speaker 1: Now So I'm i'm in a good. Mood.
- 15:47Speaker 3: Yeah we earned it this, Year yeah.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Exactly and uh, so, yeah obviously we're going to talk
- 15:54Speaker 1: about a lot of the. Fights we did have two
- 15:57Speaker 1: fighters pull out due to. Sickness but you, know in the,
- 16:03Speaker 1: end you, know it is what it, is, LIKE i don't,
- 16:09Speaker 1: know you know that it. Sucks The dubois you, know
- 16:13Speaker 1: The dubois one is the one that really. Hurt, yeah you,
- 16:16Speaker 1: know because that was the one where you really wanted
- 16:20Speaker 1: to see the. Outcome and although on, paper But kali
- 16:23Speaker 1: seemed like a great replacement because you, Know, butkoli, dude
- 16:28Speaker 1: like this is, okay that's a pretty good. Replacement but you,
- 16:32Speaker 1: know obviously he had just started his camp and even
- 16:37Speaker 1: if he isn't in tip top, shape which obviously it
- 16:39Speaker 1: wasn't just to have to fly that distance in that
- 16:43Speaker 1: short time turn around and be, like hey go. FIGHT
- 16:48Speaker 1: i don't, know what do you think of the replacement in,
- 16:51Speaker 1: general because LIKE i, said on the, surface it was like,
- 16:54Speaker 1: OKAY i mean, sure why not for a. Replacement i'm
- 16:57Speaker 1: not going to complain too, much but it would have
- 16:59Speaker 1: been nice to have somebody on the card that was
- 17:02Speaker 1: already in, camp had a full camp and all. That
- 17:04Speaker 1: but you, know beggars can't be. Choosy i'm not gonna
- 17:07Speaker 1: go too crazy with, it you.
- 17:08Speaker 3: Know, Now but it was kind of funny BECAUSE i
- 17:13Speaker 3: had went sort of the same sequence in this. CASE
- 17:16Speaker 3: i would say everybody, did and yes it is with some,
- 17:21Speaker 3: hindsight but it really didn't make any. Sense and What
- 17:25Speaker 3: i'm saying everybody, is you know the odds, MAKERS i Mean.
- 17:29Speaker 3: Parker you, know, Well i'm going to get into that.
- 17:33Speaker 3: Sum we can start with that. FIGHT i THINK i
- 17:35Speaker 3: think people need to pump the brakes On. Parker i've
- 17:38Speaker 3: said it. Before i'm going to say it again even
- 17:39Speaker 3: after this, weekend And i'm maybe somewhat, controversial But i'll
- 17:43Speaker 3: stay with it BECAUSE i feel confident in the. Opinion
- 17:45Speaker 3: but you, know Remember parker was a Minus dubis was
- 17:51Speaker 3: a minus three hundred favored Over parker before they even wade,
- 17:54Speaker 3: in and sure the money was going On dubois. Too
- 17:58Speaker 3: it was he was becoming a bigger, face so you
- 18:02Speaker 3: had that. FACTOR i Mean parker's already an, underdog and
- 18:05Speaker 3: then you, know But, koli you figure he's at least
- 18:07Speaker 3: big and he can. Punch all my years of fallen,
- 18:12Speaker 3: boxing when people talked about it being, unusual.
- 18:15Speaker 4: They were correct to raise that.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Point, YEAH i, mean nobody's nobody's ever been successful on
- 18:21Speaker 3: two days. NOTICE i don't think anybody can come up
- 18:25Speaker 3: with an example in boxing. HISTORY i Saw raphael was
- 18:31Speaker 3: bringing up the but but it. Wasn't it's not comparable. Though,
- 18:34Speaker 3: really you, know he was bringing up The Vitali klitchko
- 18:36Speaker 3: Given Lennox lewis a tough fight with ten you, know
- 18:40Speaker 3: he was substated with ten days, notice and you, know.
- 18:44Speaker 1: Another Guy. Ugas but then again one he was on
- 18:47Speaker 1: the card to it wasn't last, second you know.
- 18:49Speaker 3: That's right to you, Guys but he was on the.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Card he was training on that exact same, schedule so to, me,
- 18:55Speaker 3: yeah changing who he was, Fighting but in terms of,
- 18:58Speaker 3: preparation that's not comparable at, all because word Was bacoley
- 19:03Speaker 3: really hadn't done anything yet and he showed. That, now
- 19:08Speaker 3: you know what surprised me, that you know what got
- 19:11Speaker 3: me kind of, Excited like just first it Was. BECOLI
- 19:13Speaker 3: i did the same thing everybody else, there and you're
- 19:15Speaker 3: thinking there is some logic to. This you're thinking it's, heavyweights,
- 19:20Speaker 3: right big. Yeah and Then i'm immediately checking the odds
- 19:26Speaker 3: BECAUSE i always look at that and always will is you,
- 19:29Speaker 3: know that's the independent, view that's the also represents the
- 19:34Speaker 3: synthesis of everybody's, opinion, right whether you're just just everybody.
- 19:40Speaker 4: To make it like kind of the.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Opinion SO i see, that And parker's only a minus
- 19:45Speaker 3: one seventy five. Favorite So i'm, thinking, well you, know
- 19:49Speaker 3: maybe this is a Situation beacoli can land a. Bomb
- 19:51Speaker 3: and THEN i got extra, excited and this is the
- 19:55Speaker 3: first Thing i'm gonna say about pumping the brakes On
- 19:57Speaker 3: parker is Then parker weighs in at two sixty.
- 20:00Speaker 4: Seven you're high by, far.
- 20:03Speaker 3: Yea his career high was when he got blasted around
- 20:06Speaker 3: the ring.
- 20:07Speaker 4: By joyce and taking.
- 20:08Speaker 5: It So.
- 20:10Speaker 3: I'm Not i'm not buying. That i'm not buying This
- 20:13Speaker 3: Joe parker amazing progression and all. THAT i don't think
- 20:17Speaker 3: HE i saw what happened With pecoli like everybody. Else
- 20:20Speaker 3: pecoli was on two. Days, Notice i'm not buying this
- 20:24Speaker 3: Whole parker. THING i don't think he. WAS i don't
- 20:26Speaker 3: Think parker was, ready but he didn't end up having
- 20:28Speaker 3: to fight Du. Blis so you, know that's SOMETHING i
- 20:32Speaker 3: got to look at again in the. FUTURE i, mean you,
- 20:34Speaker 3: know to sixty, seven and you, know they and people
- 20:37Speaker 3: were also getting into This Andy lee great training job and.
- 20:41Speaker 3: All i'm not buying that, Either. FRANKLY i, Mean i'm,
- 20:43Speaker 3: not you, know just trying to unnecessarily Knock Andy, lee
- 20:46Speaker 3: But i'm. Not you're listening him in the corner in previous.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Fights his only real instruction to him is box And
- 20:52Speaker 3: parker is a mediocre. Boxer he's a guy that's kind
- 20:55Speaker 3: of okay at, everything you, know at a, higher you,
- 20:58Speaker 3: know a top, legit top ten type. Level What i've
- 21:01Speaker 3: said About Joe parker a long time, AGO i think
- 21:03Speaker 3: is holding. True came up relatively, young does everything okay
- 21:08Speaker 3: except for The joys, fight hasn't taken any real bad.
- 21:11Speaker 3: Beatings it did take some shots Against, white but you
- 21:14Speaker 3: know it's not something that he's. Getting he taken a
- 21:16Speaker 3: beating in every. Fight there's yeah. Fights he's cautious guy
- 21:20Speaker 3: that would hang around in the top ten like, forever
- 21:23Speaker 3: but not really get to the. Top and now after this,
- 21:27Speaker 3: fight you see people, Screaming, Oh parker is the number
- 21:31Speaker 3: one threat To. Ushik you know he he needs to
- 21:34Speaker 3: get the shot. Now and you, KNOW i, Mean i'm
- 21:37Speaker 3: still gonna say WHAT i said before the.
- 21:39Speaker 4: FIGHT i Mean wilder had.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Nothing we can look at it and Say wilder had
- 21:44Speaker 3: nothing left when he fought. Him you, know we saw
- 21:48Speaker 3: what happened To zag Against, kabael and you know we've
- 21:51Speaker 3: Seen zang gas. Out Now zang presents a. Danger we
- 21:55Speaker 3: also saw what he Did, joyce what he did to
- 21:57Speaker 3: a Shot.
- 21:58Speaker 4: Wilder BUT.
- 22:00Speaker 3: I just think With, parker he's still going to have
- 22:03Speaker 3: to do it against an opponent that's got more left
- 22:07Speaker 3: in the, tank that's properly. Prepared parker's going to have
- 22:11Speaker 3: to prove he can be properly. PREPARED i think he
- 22:13Speaker 3: got away with one with that to sixty. Seven And
- 22:16Speaker 3: i'm not saying the shot that he Took pecolie out
- 22:18Speaker 3: wasn't powerful because it's, heavyweights but it wasn't a great looking.
- 22:23Speaker 3: Shot it was on the top of the. Head he went.
- 22:26Speaker 3: Down they stopped. It, Look parker did what he had to.
- 22:30Speaker 3: DO i always give him and anybody else credit for
- 22:33Speaker 3: the situation they're in like. That i'm not gonna give
- 22:36Speaker 3: him credit for being a two sixty. SEVEN i don't
- 22:39Speaker 3: think he was properly, right and he got away with
- 22:41Speaker 3: one because of the. Situation but just when he got
- 22:45Speaker 3: in the, ring you, Know, okay he got the guy
- 22:47Speaker 3: out of there two. Rounds that's what he's you, know
- 22:49Speaker 3: that's all he can do at that. Point but people
- 22:54Speaker 3: reading way way too, much way too much into. It
- 22:57Speaker 3: it's it's like people get excited wanting to draw conclusions
- 23:02Speaker 3: instead of being patient about what the situation. WAS i,
- 23:05Speaker 3: Mean bacoley waited in a three, ten so you, know
- 23:09Speaker 3: WHEN i, excited he looked every bit of it and
- 23:12Speaker 3: he waited. Later so WHEN i got excited a little
- 23:15Speaker 3: bit myself trying to feel, like oh we got to
- 23:19Speaker 3: fight salvage. Here this Is Turkey alachic at least is
- 23:22Speaker 3: bringing a good. Opponent you. Know then then you're trying
- 23:24Speaker 3: to close your eyes To pecoli weighed in at three.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Ten in other, words the confirmation he's not. Ready he's
- 23:31Speaker 3: on two days uh two days, notice and like you,
- 23:35Speaker 3: said you, know anybody knows anything about sport. Preparation he's
- 23:40Speaker 3: flying all that he's flying ALL i he's not that
- 23:45Speaker 3: that would take away from your performance if you were
- 23:47Speaker 3: in shape's, exactly you, know running a, marathon if you
- 23:50Speaker 3: didn't sleep the night the night, before days before that
- 23:53Speaker 3: or something like, that you're not going to perform as. Well,
- 23:56Speaker 3: yeah and you know you.
- 23:57Speaker 4: Could apply that to a lot of. Things so that, was,
- 24:00Speaker 4: yeah too.
- 24:01Speaker 3: BAD i got excited, about you, know Because bocoli a
- 24:04Speaker 3: legit top ten. Guy that's the PART i was excited.
- 24:06Speaker 3: About and a heavyweight you could get more excited than
- 24:09Speaker 3: the lower weights because you figure the guy could maybe
- 24:12Speaker 3: just land a. Bomb but and THEN i got excited with,
- 24:16Speaker 3: Well parker's not in. Shape you, know that was something
- 24:19Speaker 3: that came kind of came out of. Nowhere he's at sixty.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Seven he's supposed to be preparing for one of the
- 24:25Speaker 3: biggest fights of his career and he's at to sixty, seven,
- 24:28Speaker 3: right you, Know AND i wasn't you know then they
- 24:30Speaker 3: always tried to he's they did throw something like that
- 24:33Speaker 3: into the.
- 24:33Speaker 4: Broadcast, well they had a strategy.
- 24:36Speaker 3: With his, size get the hell out of, HERE i,
- 24:40Speaker 3: mean get the hell out of the strategy was not
- 24:42Speaker 3: For Joe parker to come in at to sixty seven
- 24:45Speaker 3: because he's fighting. BAH i, Mean i'm not buying.
- 24:48Speaker 4: That how'd that work for him Against?
- 24:49Speaker 1: Joyce, yeah that's the. Thing it's like he had to you,
- 24:53Speaker 1: KNOW i can already kind of see people doing that
- 24:55Speaker 1: where they, say, oh you, know he was trying to
- 24:58Speaker 1: beef up at it put an extra weight of that big.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Punch it's, like, well why any weigh That he should
- 25:03Speaker 1: have weighed heavier Against wilder, then because that's the only
- 25:06Speaker 1: thing was a big ass, punch, right he obviously couldn't
- 25:10Speaker 1: do in the, Ring but he didn't know that until
- 25:11Speaker 1: he got in the ring with, him you, know.
- 25:12Speaker 3: Right and his weights Against zang And wilder were weights
- 25:16Speaker 3: where he's in, shape, Right SO i mean those were
- 25:18Speaker 3: big wins for. Him i'm not saying they weren't big.
- 25:21Speaker 3: Wins i'm just SAYING i think we got to look
- 25:23Speaker 3: at the ages of those, guys you, Be but looking
- 25:27Speaker 3: at his weights in his, career he was in shape
- 25:29Speaker 3: for those.
- 25:30Speaker 1: Fights two forty five For, wilder there you, go two forty,
- 25:34Speaker 1: five and in two forty, seven right For.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Zang RIGHT'S i checked that before.
- 25:41Speaker 1: It that's twenty that's twenty pounds.
- 25:44Speaker 3: That he's so there was no reason, why why would
- 25:47Speaker 3: why would you be at that weight Against sang and
- 25:50Speaker 3: then go up to two sixty seven to fight Du,
- 25:52Speaker 3: bois who's a. Puncher it doesn't it doesn't make any.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Sense and it was two fifty five Against, Joyce so
- 25:58Speaker 1: even twelve pounds bigger than are are.
- 26:01Speaker 3: Arguably one of the worst performances of his, career if
- 26:05Speaker 3: not the, worst because he was looking, Gassed joyce was
- 26:09Speaker 3: banging on. Him joyce stopped. Him it was first time
- 26:12Speaker 3: he got. Stopped you, know why would you then go
- 26:15Speaker 3: go he's twelve now he's twelve pounds north of that
- 26:19Speaker 3: for what was supposed to be Du. BOIS i, mean
- 26:21Speaker 3: that's that's almost like the dude was just going to grab,
- 26:25Speaker 3: them you.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Know, yeah or like, yeah could he not do like
- 26:30Speaker 1: conditioning or something like. That he kind of injury because
- 26:34Speaker 1: that's the only excuse that would work otherwise there is no,
- 26:36Speaker 1: reason you, know at.
- 26:38Speaker 3: ALL i Think Joe parker was in good shape For
- 26:41Speaker 3: wilder And zang got the job. Done you, know obviously
- 26:45Speaker 3: both of those guys can. Hit BUT i THINK i,
- 26:48Speaker 3: think you, know you look at the ages of those,
- 26:50Speaker 3: guys and he got stopped By joyce who was in
- 26:52Speaker 3: advanced age because he turned pro so late And joyce
- 26:56Speaker 3: hasn't looked any good.
- 26:57Speaker 4: SINCE i Think.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Parker's got you, KNOW i think some things have just
- 27:02Speaker 3: fallen In parker's. Favor and you, know of course it
- 27:04Speaker 3: depends who he, fights you, know and, sure BUT i
- 27:08Speaker 3: Think dublac could potentially be a bad matchup for him Because,
- 27:12Speaker 3: duboise you, know really at a prime. Age you, know
- 27:14Speaker 3: he's taking some. Punishment that's AN x. Factor BUT i
- 27:18Speaker 3: Think parker got the job.
- 27:19Speaker 4: Done But i'm that.
- 27:20Speaker 3: One my conclusion IS i think way way too too
- 27:24Speaker 3: much of a lot of people getting too excited About
- 27:26Speaker 3: parker after.
- 27:27Speaker 1: That, yeah and it's just it's just one of those
- 27:30Speaker 1: scenarios that just sucks, that you, know Du bloc couldn't,
- 27:34Speaker 1: fight but like you, said you can't you can't act
- 27:37Speaker 1: like they did, fight you know.
- 27:39Speaker 3: Exactly that's WHAT i think people are kind of. Doing
- 27:42Speaker 3: and Then.
- 27:42Speaker 1: Usig it's funny because WHEN usa got, there he was, like,
- 27:46Speaker 1: Yeah i'm gonna Fight zaba, next, like you, know he
- 27:49Speaker 1: was already saying like, yeah you, know SO i don't,
- 27:53Speaker 1: know it's just.
- 27:54Speaker 3: And there is a bit of a cell to that
- 27:56Speaker 3: fight because of the way their first fight played out
- 27:59Speaker 3: with that body, out which could have been called. Clean
- 28:01Speaker 3: you AND i both agreed on. That so there is you,
- 28:04Speaker 3: know even though it was, recent there there is somewhat
- 28:07Speaker 3: of a storyline, there AND i Think usik understands. That so,
- 28:12Speaker 3: yeah and so to, me there's even some even though
- 28:14Speaker 3: this fight fell out, unfortunately there is some logic to
- 28:18Speaker 3: that fight The usk Du boih because of the way their
- 28:21Speaker 3: first fight. Was you, Know usik's the, champ uh clearly
- 28:25Speaker 3: the champ now AND i don't care about you, know
- 28:27Speaker 3: it was alphabet, belts but you, know so that part
- 28:32Speaker 3: of the cell doesn't matter to. Me but for those
- 28:34Speaker 3: people that care about that stuff, that you, know the alphabet,
- 28:36Speaker 3: stuff they can sell them on. That BUT i, mean you,
- 28:38Speaker 3: know it makes it makes some sense Because usik's at
- 28:41Speaker 3: an advanced. Age you, know he can't just like any
- 28:45Speaker 3: fighter as good as he's been, doing you, know it
- 28:47Speaker 3: can't go.
- 28:47Speaker 4: Forever so you always get that mystery.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Too, Yeah, yeah it's it's kind of. Interesting and you,
- 28:53Speaker 1: know it's funny because WHEN i saw that weight AND
- 28:56Speaker 1: i WAS i was finishing up my prediction article for
- 28:59Speaker 1: the main, event AND i just kind of under the
- 29:02Speaker 1: under THAT i kind of just did my picks for
- 29:04Speaker 1: the rest of. THEM i didn't break down each one
- 29:07Speaker 1: and that type of, thing AND i just, said let's
- 29:09Speaker 1: just throw Him bacoli by a really, knockout just for
- 29:11Speaker 1: the fun of, it you. Know so, YEAH i was
- 29:13Speaker 1: kinda and this is before he was even there, yet you,
- 29:16Speaker 1: know WHEN i finished my, article you, know so, uh but,
- 29:20Speaker 1: yeah it was one of those things where were, like
- 29:21Speaker 1: that's a great, name but in the, end it just
- 29:25Speaker 1: doesn't it really doesn't line. Up and you, know now
- 29:28Speaker 1: he's gonna still have that, fight hopefully he's cleared and
- 29:32Speaker 1: everything like that to be able to have that Fight
- 29:34Speaker 1: may with the you KNOW. Fa SO i don't, know
- 29:38Speaker 1: it's kind.
- 29:38Speaker 3: Of REMIND i, KNOW I i, mean he's gonna have that,
- 29:42Speaker 3: apparently but you, know he wouldn't be cleared in THE, us,
- 29:45Speaker 3: RIGHT i, mean so that's. TROUBLING i GOT i have
- 29:48Speaker 3: doubts if that's gonna. HAPPEN i, mean, yeah she, said,
- 29:52Speaker 3: oh we'll bring him back for the, job but In
- 29:54Speaker 3: may in boxing twenty twenty, five after just getting stopped
- 29:58Speaker 3: in the second, ROUND I i Don't i'm not sure
- 30:01Speaker 3: that's gonna. Happen WHAT i would like to see Since,
- 30:03Speaker 3: turkey how is she is putting things like this? Together
- 30:06Speaker 3: and it would be. Perfect really the guy is there
- 30:10Speaker 3: that that would prove? It If dua is gonna Fight,
- 30:12Speaker 3: USIK i, mean put park Put parker in With. Cabiel
- 30:15Speaker 3: let's let's see which one of these two guys really
- 30:19Speaker 3: deserves to be the next in, line and whoever comes
- 30:21Speaker 3: out of that one will be somebody that everybody would
- 30:25Speaker 3: get excited about to Fight, Usik who or whoever the
- 30:29Speaker 3: real champ is going to, be you, know at that,
- 30:31Speaker 3: time If usik goes on Beating dubois or if du
- 30:35Speaker 3: wopples an upset or, SOMETHING i, mean that's that that
- 30:37Speaker 3: would be a fight that, people you, know would be interested.
- 30:40Speaker 3: In and The Parker cabiel is a good. MATCHUP i,
- 30:42Speaker 3: mean if If parker can Beat, Cabell i'll give him.
- 30:46Speaker 3: Props you, Know cabiel's obviously at his prime right, now
- 30:50Speaker 3: and he's on a tremendous street with with just destroying
- 30:54Speaker 3: people to the.
- 30:54Speaker 4: Body you.
- 30:55Speaker 1: Know SO i was gonna, say keeps getting, better it seems.
- 30:57Speaker 3: Yeah it does seem like he's got he keeps getting.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Better, yeah and let's might as little sensor right. There,
- 31:03Speaker 1: Yeah zan came OUT i thought had a pretty good opening.
- 31:06Speaker 1: Round but, yeah beyond that fifth round where he caught
- 31:09Speaker 1: him with the left hand and the exchange on the
- 31:12Speaker 1: ear knocked him, down it did seem like after that
- 31:18Speaker 1: it was pretty much arm. Punches he looked pretty gassed after,
- 31:21Speaker 1: that and you, Know kabiella had gotten up and started
- 31:27Speaker 1: throwing back as. Well otherwise he was winning that. Round
- 31:30Speaker 1: but even through so after that round it was one
- 31:35Speaker 1: forty to seventy one for punches. Landed and like you,
- 31:39Speaker 1: said that body, ATTACK i thought at some Point john
- 31:44Speaker 1: he would be able to push him, back BUT i
- 31:46Speaker 1: didn't think that would be the game plan from the
- 31:49Speaker 1: from the jump and that was really, impressive and he
- 31:52Speaker 1: he hung around in front of, him but not too,
- 31:55Speaker 1: long but he was letting his hands, go going to
- 31:57Speaker 1: the body and then landing pretty big. Upstairs but like you,
- 32:00Speaker 1: said that bodywork is was really he was kind of
- 32:03Speaker 1: mixing up. Too like at the start he was just
- 32:05Speaker 1: landing pretty solid. Shots then he would kind of shoeshine
- 32:09Speaker 1: a little. Bit other times he would land really big
- 32:12Speaker 1: shots where you could see it was Affecting zang and,
- 32:15Speaker 1: yeah just another another solid performance By. Kaby oh what'd
- 32:20Speaker 1: you think of that?
- 32:20Speaker 3: FIGHT i Think, cabby you, know even though all his
- 32:27Speaker 3: guys weren't ranked as highly at the, time MAYBE i you,
- 32:33Speaker 3: KNOW i just think this cab and you, know Mag madoff,
- 32:36Speaker 3: wasn't but he was you look at as a top
- 32:39Speaker 3: up and coming guy who had amateur. Pedigree you, know to,
- 32:42Speaker 3: me like what Cab l's done three straight basically body
- 32:47Speaker 3: shot KOs, over you, know Mac, Madoff Frank sanchez And,
- 32:52Speaker 3: zang that that's catching my eye more than What parker's,
- 32:56Speaker 3: done because you know his fights We zang And wilder
- 32:59Speaker 3: went the, distance, right and he got dropped twice Against. Sang,
- 33:03Speaker 3: Now cabiell got dropped once, too but he got up
- 33:05Speaker 3: and took him got up and took him. Out and
- 33:08Speaker 3: you know WHAT i for that, FIGHT i agree with.
- 33:10Speaker 3: You you know what really surprised me about the fight,
- 33:12Speaker 3: too is it did look to, me you, know In
- 33:16Speaker 3: zang having a good first, round it looked to me
- 33:19Speaker 3: Like cabiell was bothered by the. Power you, KNOW i was,
- 33:24Speaker 3: thinking Maybe zang is going to pull the upset, here
- 33:26Speaker 3: but Then cabiel just seemed to find his groove and
- 33:32Speaker 3: prove that he was not intimidated or bothered by the.
- 33:35Speaker 3: Power got, dropped but got right back, up got to
- 33:38Speaker 3: what he was, doing and THEN i, thought what was really.
- 33:41Speaker 3: Devastating of course he stopped, Him he's the first to do,
- 33:46Speaker 3: that but even the way he did, IT i, thought
- 33:48Speaker 3: What cabell did Against zang that nobody else, did that
- 33:51Speaker 3: was really impressive to. Me Is zang had that gass
- 33:57Speaker 3: look like he's about to, go but that he's had
- 33:59Speaker 3: against many, people including somebody Like Jerry. Forrest but when
- 34:05Speaker 3: he had to look this time And cabell just came
- 34:08Speaker 3: right out of him and started whipping those body, shots
- 34:10Speaker 3: he didn't he didn't let him breathe, literally and the
- 34:13Speaker 3: combination Of zang looking for a, rest, yeah act That
- 34:19Speaker 3: cabil put on. Him he. Wasn't he was. DONE i,
- 34:23Speaker 3: mean that's. It even though it was in the even
- 34:25Speaker 3: the first, half it wasn't even the second half of the.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Fight didn't make.
- 34:29Speaker 3: It and that was impressive, that you, know because we've
- 34:32Speaker 3: Seen zang like that, before and we've seen people not finish.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Him you, know they didn't have the ability to get
- 34:39Speaker 3: in there and finish him And it's happened multiple. Times
- 34:41Speaker 3: you saw him like that against Her. Hergo you saw
- 34:46Speaker 3: him like that even you, know Against Jerry. Forrest but you,
- 34:51Speaker 3: Know cabell was able to keep the pressure on and
- 34:54Speaker 3: then not let him breathe when he got like that
- 34:56Speaker 3: and just finish him. Off you, know he was even Against,
- 34:59Speaker 3: joe you could see he would he would like explode
- 35:03Speaker 3: and then he was looking to. Rest you, know he
- 35:05Speaker 3: was real careful with. That and you know when when
- 35:08Speaker 3: he got gassed in this, One cabell just didn't let him,
- 35:10Speaker 3: breathe and, uh, real, real real Impressive. Ko and you,
- 35:15Speaker 3: know At zang's, age he's an interesting. Character let's face,
- 35:18Speaker 3: it all his fights end up being fun to watch
- 35:21Speaker 3: because crazy, things crazy things basically happening. There but everything
- 35:27Speaker 3: comes to an. End you have to look at the.
- 35:29Speaker 3: Ages that's gonna be another one of the Things i'm
- 35:31Speaker 3: gonna be talking about, tonight BECAUSE i think people forget
- 35:34Speaker 3: about that too when they want to just draw conclusions
- 35:36Speaker 3: and not look at that.
- 35:37Speaker 4: Part but you have, to, like you, Know.
- 35:40Speaker 3: Zag's probably, THIS i mean it's, OVER i mean it's
- 35:43Speaker 3: really it's it's you, know he's still top ten, technically
- 35:46Speaker 3: but even though he Knocked cabrill. Down cabrill is. TOUGH
- 35:50Speaker 3: i just you, know the age is too. Advanced he
- 35:53Speaker 3: doesn't have, that and he doesn't have the. Stamina now
- 35:55Speaker 3: he suffered A ko and he has taken shots in
- 35:58Speaker 3: a lot of his fights. Too you, KNOW i JUST
- 36:02Speaker 3: i don't see you, know that's. It it. Was it
- 36:05Speaker 3: was a, fun, fun little fun little ride. There BUT
- 36:08Speaker 3: i think for practical, purposes that's.
- 36:11Speaker 1: It, Yeah i'd have to agree with you, because like you,
- 36:15Speaker 1: said he's taking, punishment And, mike he's not gonna all
- 36:18Speaker 1: of a sudden come like in great shape and righty,
- 36:21Speaker 1: MAN i can go twelve rounds no, problem because he
- 36:23Speaker 1: would already done.
- 36:24Speaker 3: That you know by now he's too. Old but you
- 36:26Speaker 3: know he's not he's not going to get into better.
- 36:29Speaker 3: CONDITION i, mean he can be in good shape for his. Forties,
- 36:34Speaker 3: yeah but he would have to fight at a slower.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Pace and you know he's not going to re really
- 36:38Speaker 3: in better condition than he was a few years.
- 36:40Speaker 4: Ago and now he's taking more.
- 36:42Speaker 3: Punishment uh, now Cabbyl but you know boxers are smart like.
- 36:47Speaker 4: That you know they can watch the they can watch the.
- 36:49Speaker 3: Video you, know the next time he gets people are
- 36:52Speaker 3: going to think about What cabl did to him and
- 36:54Speaker 3: start whipping body shots and you, know, yeah it's gonna
- 36:58Speaker 3: be hard to cover for that.
- 36:59Speaker 4: Vulnerable So i'm not saying he won't be.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Back you might be back In Saudi arabia As TURKEY
- 37:04Speaker 3: AlSi keeps putting these heavyweights, together BUT i think he's
- 37:07Speaker 3: not going to be a.
- 37:08Speaker 1: Factor, sure, yeah and he. DID i think it was
- 37:11Speaker 1: a three fight, deal so that might have done it.
- 37:14Speaker 1: Anyway but you're, right even in that last, round he
- 37:19Speaker 1: was almost. Slumped oh you, know he almost.
- 37:22Speaker 4: He was doing that before he got.
- 37:23Speaker 1: Taken, yeah and the ref was like anticipating and it
- 37:27Speaker 1: looked like he was stopping the fight like it was you,
- 37:29Speaker 1: know they're not stopping, it but you, know gonna start to.
- 37:32Speaker 1: Count and then it was, like, wait what just? Happened
- 37:34Speaker 1: you cleared a? Fighter did you think it was a
- 37:37Speaker 1: low blow or you, know it was a really weird little.
- 37:40Speaker 1: Scenario and it was like he didn't touch his, glove
- 37:42Speaker 1: he didn't take a. Knee it looked like he was going,
- 37:46Speaker 1: to but he actually. Didn't and like you, said it
- 37:48Speaker 1: helped him buy some, time but not much after that
- 37:52Speaker 1: he was ready to go And kaviel took him. Out
- 37:54Speaker 1: and he's got good, hands, speed got good, power got good.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Smarts he can box a little bit, too and he kens.
- 38:02Speaker 1: Aggressive he's aggressive when it's time to be aggressive.
- 38:05Speaker 3: Too he got he got really. Aggressive but in his
- 38:08Speaker 3: earlier in his career coming, UP I i'm trying to
- 38:12Speaker 3: think of WHY i was even watching NOW i think.
- 38:15Speaker 3: WHY i think it was pandemic and just watching. Anything,
- 38:19Speaker 3: yeah he, was he was on some cards From, germany
- 38:23Speaker 3: and yeah when when, winning you, know he was he
- 38:28Speaker 3: boxed relatively. Cautiously, yeah that's usually what it. Was, yeah
- 38:32Speaker 3: and you, KNOW i think he Beat chasura like. That
- 38:35Speaker 3: but now you, know in this in his, run he's
- 38:39Speaker 3: been really aggressive and it's been really, effective and he's getting.
- 38:41Speaker 3: KNOCKOUTS i, mean three straight big knockouts being aggressive and
- 38:45Speaker 3: with vicious body. Shots it's it's it's really he's really
- 38:49Speaker 3: on an impressive.
- 38:50Speaker 1: Run, yeah BECAUSE i, mean, yeah the the INTENSE i don't,
- 38:54Speaker 1: know maybe it was That sanchez, fight where as the
- 38:57Speaker 1: fight went on he started to be more. Aggressively sanchiz
- 39:00Speaker 1: is going to try to box because that's what he.
- 39:02Speaker 1: Does but, yeah ever since, then, man he really showed
- 39:07Speaker 1: a different gear and LIKE i, said That zaying is
- 39:09Speaker 1: a big guy with. POWER i really thought he boxed
- 39:12Speaker 1: for a, while you, know and just kind of feel
- 39:14Speaker 1: it out and then. Press but when he pushed him
- 39:18Speaker 1: back right, AWAY i was, Like, oh, Wow keV hell's
- 39:20Speaker 1: coming for, it, Okay like this is gonna be a fun.
- 39:23Speaker 1: Fight and so, yeah he's he's really he's right. There
- 39:28Speaker 1: and LIKE i, SAID i like that The parker KaiA.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Yell that lines up for. ME i, know people hall are, like,
- 39:33Speaker 1: oh that's not fair For, parker but it's, like you,
- 39:36Speaker 1: KNOW i don't know. That you, know it's, sucks you,
- 39:40Speaker 1: know but if he would have got beat then what
- 39:42Speaker 1: what he been? Saying you? Know so either, way you, KNOW.
- 39:45Speaker 3: I don't, know you, know the, way as long as
- 39:48Speaker 3: the saudy things, CONTINUING i, figure you, know he's going
- 39:51Speaker 3: to get well paid for, it so, exactly you, KNOW
- 39:53Speaker 3: i THINK i think that's a good. Throwback just keep
- 39:58Speaker 3: having the heavyweight contenders fight each.
- 40:00Speaker 1: Other, yeah, yeah. Exactly all, right so let's move on to,
- 40:08Speaker 1: well we might as well get out of the way
- 40:10Speaker 1: we talked About. Parker stevenson had a you, know a
- 40:15Speaker 1: guy that came in off the job site, basically, uh you,
- 40:19Speaker 1: know he gave a good account for, himself considering he
- 40:22Speaker 1: got there, later you, know late in the fight and.
- 40:24Speaker 1: Whatnot it looked Like stevenson was coming with the jab
- 40:30Speaker 1: right away and throwing it pretty, assertive and then he
- 40:33Speaker 1: just kind of did his, thing you know what he.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Does and he's stayed in the pocket a lot in this,
- 40:39Speaker 1: fight just BECAUSE i don't think he thought a lot
- 40:42Speaker 1: was coming at. Him but it was just one of
- 40:44Speaker 1: those kind of ho, hum, okay you got this, done
- 40:46Speaker 1: you got that guy, Out AND i don't, know it
- 40:50Speaker 1: was just kind of, like all, right we'll get we'll
- 40:51Speaker 1: see in the next. Fight but here again he hurt
- 40:54Speaker 1: his damn. Hand, Yeah so is he gonna be out
- 40:58Speaker 1: now for a. WHILE i. DON'T i don't really, know you,
- 41:00Speaker 1: know like maybe it's just a minor. Injury like a
- 41:03Speaker 1: lot of guys hurt their, hands so hopefully it's just
- 41:05Speaker 1: a minor. One and some guys making a show while
- 41:10Speaker 1: the fight's going on and they really want to show
- 41:13Speaker 1: you my hand hurts and all. That other guys you
- 41:16Speaker 1: wouldn't even. Know SO i, DON'T i don't know how serious,
- 41:20Speaker 1: that's you, know that's gonna delay. Him but considering the,
- 41:23Speaker 1: assignment he did get it done Against Josh. Padley, Yeah padley.
- 41:30Speaker 3: On really short rest as. Well not quite as bad As,
- 41:33Speaker 3: bikoli but almost as. Bad he. Did consider how Good stevenson,
- 41:40Speaker 3: Is padly Did. Okay the problem with, him even as
- 41:44Speaker 3: not only as a, substitute is he's got no, power
- 41:47Speaker 3: so you, know he's he's not even a threat to
- 41:51Speaker 3: land a, threat a lucky shot so to. Speak that
- 41:55Speaker 3: takes away from. Suspense BUT i do like that at
- 41:59Speaker 3: least he was Throwing owen punches where you know he's
- 42:03Speaker 3: not in, there just Saying i'm going to be in
- 42:05Speaker 3: here And i'm not doing anything to try to. Win,
- 42:09Speaker 3: yeah SO i.
- 42:10Speaker 4: Like that about.
- 42:11Speaker 3: Him. STEVENSON i thought there was a positive to take
- 42:14Speaker 3: because he has done it against better.
- 42:16Speaker 4: Opponents but he doesn't always do.
- 42:18Speaker 3: It but it's not that you can say he's never
- 42:22Speaker 3: done it against anybody. Good when he when he commits
- 42:26Speaker 3: to the, body he does seem to have some power
- 42:30Speaker 3: to the. Body reminds me totally different fighting, styles but
- 42:33Speaker 3: reminds me of what do we say about you, Know
- 42:35Speaker 3: Gilberto Zerdo. Ramirez the rare case of a guy who
- 42:39Speaker 3: touches better than the body than the. HEAD i Mean,
- 42:42Speaker 3: stevens you, know he lands to the, head but but
- 42:45Speaker 3: they're kind of like not much force on the. Shots
- 42:48Speaker 3: but but seen it in his other fights, too you
- 42:50Speaker 3: know when he commits to the, body even against fighters
- 42:53Speaker 3: that are, good he hurts people to the. Body SO
- 42:57Speaker 3: i did like that he basically ended it that. Way
- 43:00Speaker 3: that really led to the end here because even though
- 43:04Speaker 3: It's Josh, padley that's one thing When i've seen him
- 43:09Speaker 3: use it against better, opposition it is also effective for,
- 43:12Speaker 3: him and so you, know if there's one way he
- 43:16Speaker 3: can maybe get some more, stoppages it really looks like
- 43:20Speaker 3: to the. Body because even With, padley then when he
- 43:23Speaker 3: was going, upstairs he was landing but it really wasn't hurting.
- 43:26Speaker 3: Him but when he went back down to the, body
- 43:29Speaker 3: you could see he was legitimately hurting. Him and you
- 43:31Speaker 3: know that that led to the end of the fight for.
- 43:33Speaker 3: Him i'd really like to see more of that from
- 43:36Speaker 3: him Because i've seen him do it against some good
- 43:38Speaker 3: opposition and hurt, him but he just.
- 43:40Speaker 4: Doesn't he just doesn't always do.
- 43:42Speaker 3: It so If i'm going to take one thing out
- 43:45Speaker 3: of that for of, Course stevenson late lat, replacement but,
- 43:48Speaker 3: man you know he can do that against better. Opposition
- 43:52Speaker 3: adds to the entertainment, value makes him more effective, too
- 43:54Speaker 3: because then he's hurting. People, yeah you, know everything else
- 43:59Speaker 3: was his usual. Self would would like to see him
- 44:02Speaker 3: stay with that body attack against the better, Opposition but
- 44:06Speaker 3: the fight was also just important in terms of things
- 44:09Speaker 3: being marketed in boxing to. Us sensibilities for all kinds
- 44:14Speaker 3: of reasons are just like diminishing by the, day by the.
- 44:17Speaker 3: Month so on this, card us, sensibilities all you had
- 44:23Speaker 3: Was stevenson And Virgil. Ortiz you, KNOW i MEAN i
- 44:26Speaker 3: watched the. CARD i enjoyed, it but but it's not
- 44:30Speaker 3: that they were even hyping that that big on the,
- 44:33Speaker 3: card but that you still did have that at least
- 44:35Speaker 3: it was on. It but that was all that was
- 44:37Speaker 3: all you, had, Right.
- 44:39Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it'll be interesting to see if because you,
- 44:44Speaker 1: know the next fight is supposed to Be zapada as
- 44:48Speaker 1: long as he gets, by you, know the rematch, fight
- 44:51Speaker 1: WHICH i do think he'll do better in the. REMATCH
- 44:55Speaker 1: i think he overlooked the, opponent BUT i don't. Know, hopefully,
- 45:01Speaker 1: hopefully hopefully they'll get something going in The you, know
- 45:04Speaker 1: cause it's it's kind of right around the corner Zip zippata's,
- 45:08Speaker 1: fight so it's not that far. Away so, HOPEFULLY i don't,
- 45:14Speaker 1: know maybe in the summer or something like, that late
- 45:16Speaker 1: summer or something like, that they could, fight because that's the. Plan,
- 45:20Speaker 1: supposedly the plan is that poted. Next but that was
- 45:22Speaker 1: supposed to be the plan, originally you, Know and that's
- 45:26Speaker 1: what was kind of frustrating about this. Thing it's like we,
- 45:30Speaker 1: thought you, know he never really let whatever was going
- 45:34Speaker 1: to play out play. Out he kind of just signed
- 45:37Speaker 1: a two fight deal and that's, cool you, know get
- 45:40Speaker 1: your money and If zeypota is a good fight for,
- 45:43Speaker 1: him but it didn't, happen you, know so it's, like, oh,
- 45:47Speaker 1: okay so why we put in the week Deadline if
- 45:50Speaker 1: you're going to try, to you, know get a fight With,
- 45:54Speaker 1: Javonte the thing's not going to be negotiating in a,
- 45:57Speaker 1: week you know WHAT i, mean you don't really put
- 45:59Speaker 1: deadlines on that. Stuff but that's where he wants to
- 46:03Speaker 1: aim at some point. Here but the goal he said
- 46:07Speaker 1: was A PoTA if he gets by it and then.
- 46:10Speaker 1: Tank but, yeah it'd be nice for him to get
- 46:14Speaker 1: a solid win at lightweight and kind of line himself
- 46:19Speaker 1: up for That tank. Fight as we. Know you, KNOW
- 46:22Speaker 1: i still think that would it'd be a really good
- 46:26Speaker 1: b side For. Tank. Really you, Know i'm not saying
- 46:30Speaker 1: it's gonna do what him And garcia, did but at
- 46:33Speaker 1: least the core has been ON espn for quite some.
- 46:37Speaker 3: Time, Yeah i'm starting to, think you, know just hearing
- 46:40Speaker 3: you talk about it and then thinking about it. MYSELF
- 46:43Speaker 3: i didn't mention this. BEFORE i wanted to mention it
- 46:45Speaker 3: BECAUSE i did see it when he was in the
- 46:47Speaker 3: locker Room, saturday and you, know it's so scarce in
- 46:49Speaker 3: boxing in twenty twenty, five especially in THE, us it
- 46:53Speaker 3: is worth. MENTIONING i, mean you, know you See stevenson
- 46:56Speaker 3: On rebox commercials now he had The rebox stuff on
- 46:58Speaker 3: the locker. Room. Now rebox kind of like just still
- 47:01Speaker 3: stayed around as like a bargain brand, now but you,
- 47:05Speaker 3: know big worldwide brand over, decades they're still out there
- 47:10Speaker 3: marketing and they're still in you, Know, walmart every every
- 47:15Speaker 3: big story right still AN i just, saying, like you,
- 47:19Speaker 3: know so whatever exposure he got ON, espn you, know
- 47:23Speaker 3: and he was on The, olympics it led to. THAT
- 47:26Speaker 3: i mean for where boxing is, today and you look
- 47:28Speaker 3: at What stevenson's numbers were compared to the other guys
- 47:31Speaker 3: ON espn, recently you think a Tank davis has been
- 47:34Speaker 3: pay per view exclusively for a, while did well in
- 47:38Speaker 3: The Ryan garcia. MATCHUP i don't, know like you, know
- 47:41Speaker 3: maybe it is a it is an extremely intriguing style. Matchup,
- 47:46Speaker 3: yeah so that Helps stevenson there where you, know then
- 47:51Speaker 3: that's what helps a guy like That sometimes if you
- 47:52Speaker 3: get the right style, matchup then you're not worried about
- 47:56Speaker 3: him necessarily stinking it out because there's a guy that
- 48:00Speaker 3: can bring enough heat to. Him there's some suspense, there you,
- 48:04Speaker 3: know could he get, caught you, know and.
- 48:05Speaker 1: And and that would be likely a fight That. JERVAN
- 48:08Speaker 1: i Think germonte has even said that that is a
- 48:11Speaker 1: fight THAT i go to him instead of being patient.
- 48:15Speaker 1: Fighters so to your, point, Yeah.
- 48:18Speaker 3: Steve, stevenson some some guys are just like. That it's
- 48:22Speaker 3: IT'S i, MEAN i could see a little bit, why
- 48:24Speaker 3: but it's just it's been so hard for. Boxers And
- 48:26Speaker 3: i'm not saying he's like a HUGE us star or
- 48:29Speaker 3: anything like. That but on the other, HAND i don't,
- 48:31Speaker 3: know he seems he seems to kind of tract, ATTENTION
- 48:34Speaker 3: i mean without even that's JUST i, mean not that
- 48:37Speaker 3: he doesn't say stuff like other box and, everything but
- 48:40Speaker 3: but it's not like he's going totally totally over the
- 48:43Speaker 3: top and he seems to you.
- 48:44Speaker 6: Know Fma lopez over the time, exactly you know exactly
- 48:48Speaker 6: WHAT i, meant right like he.
- 48:49Speaker 3: Does he's not doing that to get. Attention and it's
- 48:52Speaker 3: JUST i don't, know like there's something there's something kind of.
- 48:56Speaker 3: LIKABLE i guess when you when you hear the guy.
- 48:58Speaker 3: TALK i don't know what it, is but like you,
- 49:01Speaker 3: know even when he says stuff, LIKE i don't, know
- 49:03Speaker 3: you kind of like listening to the. GUY i guess
- 49:06Speaker 3: it's a little bit of. That and you, know of
- 49:08Speaker 3: Course tanks got a big. Following i'm thinking out loud
- 49:12Speaker 3: THAT i don't, know maybe maybe this is a bigger
- 49:14Speaker 3: fight than we think right.
- 49:15Speaker 4: Now i'm not either of them definitely take.
- 49:18Speaker 3: It but If turkey Alas sheek's going to be thrown
- 49:21Speaker 3: around money on, FIGHTS i mean he could do a
- 49:25Speaker 3: lot worse than throwing around money on that, one and
- 49:28Speaker 3: that that would be a BIG us. FIGHT i, mean
- 49:30Speaker 3: that would be your BIG us. FIGHT i, mean you,
- 49:33Speaker 3: know we are to, Point, chris you AND i talk
- 49:34Speaker 3: about this a. LOT i, mean you, know what really
- 49:37Speaker 3: really BIG us fights can you make That we're at
- 49:40Speaker 3: a point where there's not even like a lot of
- 49:42Speaker 3: theoretical matchups you could put together that would be that.
- 49:45Speaker 3: Big they'd be good, fights but they might not be
- 49:48Speaker 3: that big like this. ONE i don't, know you, know
- 49:50Speaker 3: maybe this is a bigger fight than we. Think maybe
- 49:52Speaker 3: this one is at least on like closer to A
- 49:57Speaker 3: Ryan garcia tank type.
- 49:58Speaker 1: Level, YEAH i, mean even if it does at those,
- 50:02Speaker 1: numbers six hundred thousand or, something that would be a
- 50:04Speaker 1: pretty big that's a sizable. Audience and, YEAH i DO
- 50:09Speaker 1: i do think that he has, managed when he's in
- 50:13Speaker 1: the right spot to sell some tickets as, well so
- 50:17Speaker 1: he's not completely like people do know. Him he's been
- 50:20Speaker 1: doing million dollar, gates you, know which not many fighters
- 50:24Speaker 1: can do, that you, know there's not many, Actually so,
- 50:28Speaker 1: YEAH i think it would be. Big, REALLY i.
- 50:30Speaker 3: Mean if you Had stevenson And, davis because Here davis
- 50:34Speaker 3: is An East coast guy at, LEAST i, mean if
- 50:36Speaker 3: you Had stevenson And davis fight in Like New york
- 50:40Speaker 3: Or New. Jersey, YEAH i, mean you know that's not
- 50:43Speaker 3: gonna be it's paid per view that you're looking. FOR
- 50:46Speaker 3: i mean the, gate of, course and it probably be In,
- 50:48Speaker 3: vegas you, know, right but it was media centers.
- 50:52Speaker 4: There that's the.
- 50:52Speaker 3: Thing, yes, yeah, yeah does catch on and then he
- 50:56Speaker 3: helps you drive. SALES i MEAN i could you, KNOW
- 50:59Speaker 3: i could SEE i could see that attractive some, attention
- 51:02Speaker 3: some you, Know New york area, media even though they
- 51:05Speaker 3: don't regularly cover boxing, anymore but they might for. That,
- 51:09Speaker 3: yeah that's the kind of thing you. Need drives your
- 51:10Speaker 3: pay per view. Sales you get a good, gate get,
- 51:13Speaker 3: that get that Good New york area. Media it could
- 51:17Speaker 3: it could, definitely it could definitely be a be a
- 51:21Speaker 3: pretty pretty big fight compared to what we've got. Nowadays, yeah,
- 51:25Speaker 3: YEAH i THINK i think you're.
- 51:26Speaker 1: Right, hopefully hopefully by the end of the, year that
- 51:28Speaker 1: would be a fight they'd either be uh getting ready
- 51:32Speaker 1: to make or. Make that'd be a great way to
- 51:34Speaker 1: close the. Year let's talk about Early buwatzi And, smith
- 51:39Speaker 1: Now Calliam. SMITH i, thought in many ways delivered in this.
- 51:45Speaker 1: FIGHT i thought he was pretty damn good in this,
- 51:47Speaker 1: fight very. COMPETITIVE i was actually just looking at the copy.
- 51:52Speaker 1: Box they both threw over six hundred. Punches in, Fact
- 51:56Speaker 1: bwatzi threw six oh six to seven sixteen So smith
- 52:00Speaker 1: through seven sixteen land and thirty eight percent to seventy
- 52:04Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy two. Lands they both were attacking
- 52:09Speaker 1: the body fairly. Well obviously we Knew bowatzi would have
- 52:13Speaker 1: the jab, advantage which he, did but, that, uh it
- 52:19Speaker 1: was pretty. Complete, now it was a close. Fight it
- 52:22Speaker 1: was very, competitive no doubt about. IT i don't know
- 52:26Speaker 1: about the eight, four, uh but but what did you
- 52:30Speaker 1: think of the fight? Itself you, KNOW i THINK i had.
- 52:34Speaker 1: IT i THINK i had it about two to two after.
- 52:37Speaker 1: FOUR i Thought smith won the fifth and, SIXTH i,
- 52:40Speaker 1: thought Then bwatzi made some hay and won the, seventh,
- 52:43Speaker 1: eighth and then was kind of going back and forth
- 52:46Speaker 1: to ninth To, smith the tenth To, bwatzie eleventh To
- 52:49Speaker 1: bwatsie and then the twelfth To. Smith SO i like
- 52:55Speaker 1: the way he kept moving his. Hands he did do
- 52:58Speaker 1: some of the stuff you're talking about being at range And.
- 53:02Speaker 1: BOZI i THOUGHT i didn't Think bootzi would come forward
- 53:07Speaker 1: that quick either in the. Fight but what are your
- 53:09Speaker 1: thoughts on that? Fight Is Kim. Smith you, KNOW i
- 53:13Speaker 1: gotta get to. Him he looked pretty damn good in that.
- 53:16Speaker 3: Fight he did a, great great. Fight fight of the
- 53:18Speaker 3: year for me so, FAR i, THOUGHT i, thought we're
- 53:22Speaker 3: at the end Of february twenty twenty. Five fight fighted
- 53:24Speaker 3: the year for, me so, far so perfect main, fight you,
- 53:29Speaker 3: know first of the main fights on the card that
- 53:33Speaker 3: day here in THE, us and you, know great Fight Callum.
- 53:36Speaker 3: Smith big question for me, was you, know in his mid,
- 53:40Speaker 3: thirties was he still going to really want to do,
- 53:43Speaker 3: this really be prepared and bring. It and he certainly proved.
- 53:46Speaker 3: That of, course anybody watching that, fight including to, myself
- 53:51Speaker 3: he proved that one and then, two you, know he's
- 53:54Speaker 3: still stuck With buddy. McGirt i also, thought you, know
- 53:57Speaker 3: SOMETIMES i don't even necessarily blame the. Fighters it would
- 54:01Speaker 3: have been for the same types of. Reasons don't want
- 54:03Speaker 3: to pay that money. Anymore then think maybe at the,
- 54:06Speaker 3: end you, Know i'm not going to Pay gert to be,
- 54:08Speaker 3: here and there's mcgert. THERE i, MEAN i have so
- 54:11Speaker 3: much belief in McGirt as you know, that you, know
- 54:14Speaker 3: IF i was certain mcgert was going to keep that
- 54:16Speaker 3: level of. Involvement it almost would have made me rethink
- 54:20Speaker 3: my pick Of. BLATZI i probably wouldn't have changed, it
- 54:23Speaker 3: BUT i would have thought about it. Harder but, again
- 54:26Speaker 3: mcgern only matters if you listen to, him and you,
- 54:28Speaker 3: know because he's a great fight. Strategist but in this
- 54:30Speaker 3: FIGHT i Saw smith really. Listening and the key Where smith,
- 54:33Speaker 3: listened and this Is smith himself has said. It he
- 54:37Speaker 3: said it after the. Fight it's where you, know he
- 54:40Speaker 3: didn't listen in the, past like you, know when when
- 54:43Speaker 3: he failed against you, Know canelo and Better. Bev in other,
- 54:47Speaker 3: words letting himself get pushed back or he couldn't get
- 54:51Speaker 3: any leverage on his, shots and so you, know he
- 54:54Speaker 3: just wasn't. Effective you know that happened a lot in
- 54:58Speaker 3: this fight With. Bowatzi but you know McGirt kept telling
- 55:01Speaker 3: him in the corner and you could See smith make those.
- 55:05Speaker 3: Adjustments you, know then it was like he was, reminded
- 55:08Speaker 3: and you, KNOW i think if he would have led,
- 55:10Speaker 3: him there was a few times in the. Fight it
- 55:11Speaker 3: was such a good fight where both men were hurt
- 55:13Speaker 3: on multiple. OCCASIONS i thought there was a couple of
- 55:16Speaker 3: times in the fight where If smith would have Allowed
- 55:19Speaker 3: wawatsa to keep backing them up and not change that.
- 55:22Speaker 3: Momentum he would have gotten, stopped but you, know then
- 55:25Speaker 3: he would start coming forward at, least you, know getting
- 55:28Speaker 3: leverage on his, shots nailing thea watseee with good hooks
- 55:32Speaker 3: and right hands and, uppercuts and you, know backing him
- 55:36Speaker 3: off and hurting. Him he heard him on a few,
- 55:37Speaker 3: occasions you, know W watsae looked ready to go a
- 55:39Speaker 3: few Times smith.
- 55:41Speaker 4: COULD i thought both men were seriously hurt on a couple.
- 55:44Speaker 3: Occasions it was that kind of a back and forth
- 55:47Speaker 3: fight And smith had the. CUT i did Think smith
- 55:49Speaker 3: edged it as, well but you, know real real good competitive. Fight.
- 55:54Speaker 3: Really then WHEN i finished, IT i, thought you, Know
- 55:57Speaker 3: smith earned his stop going up to really right below
- 56:01Speaker 3: the you know BiVO and better be of at the
- 56:03Speaker 3: top of the. Division AND i Thought blotzi performed well
- 56:07Speaker 3: enough really with A smith like looking At Like Gil
- 56:11Speaker 3: clezi always used to, say it depends sometimes what version
- 56:13Speaker 3: of the guy you're fighting shows, Up like this Callum
- 56:16Speaker 3: smith who's coming, forward throwing shots with, power you, know
- 56:20Speaker 3: and his big even for a light. Heavyweight you, know
- 56:24Speaker 3: that's a tough, opponent like you, KNOW blotsi, lost he was,
- 56:27Speaker 3: hurt but he kept coming. Back he Hurt smith on multiple.
- 56:30Speaker 3: Occasions he showed a lot of things. HIMSELF i don't
- 56:33Speaker 3: think his stock to, me really. Dropped he hadn't had
- 56:36Speaker 3: that kind of a. Test he didn't win, it and
- 56:39Speaker 3: he was, hurt but he also didn't, fold and he
- 56:43Speaker 3: had a lot of great moments of his. Own so this,
- 56:46Speaker 3: really to me was one of those classic like both
- 56:49Speaker 3: guys kind of won. FIGHT i, MEAN i Know blotzi
- 56:51Speaker 3: technically is a little set back because maybe he would
- 56:54Speaker 3: have been that guy right After bivolon.
- 56:58Speaker 4: And now It's.
- 56:58Speaker 3: Smith BUT i think as a, fighter you, know for,
- 57:03Speaker 3: me his stock didn't really. Drop he showed enough in that,
- 57:06Speaker 3: fight including, heart and it was fight of the. YEAR i,
- 57:09Speaker 3: mean that, one to me is gonna be tough to
- 57:12Speaker 3: top for fight you, know the rest of the. Year we'll.
- 57:14Speaker 3: See i'm sure there's gonna be other good, ones but
- 57:17Speaker 3: that's my front runner For fighter of The year twenty
- 57:19Speaker 3: twenty five so. Far SO i was really pleased with.
- 57:22Speaker 3: That when you have a big card like this and
- 57:24Speaker 3: it's pay per, view even a lower price pay per,
- 57:26Speaker 3: view you know you're you're looking for that kind of
- 57:28Speaker 3: action and those guys definitely brought it and that was you,
- 57:31Speaker 3: know fight of the night for.
- 57:33Speaker 1: Sure, yeah it was funny how it was like a
- 57:37Speaker 1: lot of, action like three fights in a, row and
- 57:39Speaker 1: then it kind of tapered off then it picked back,
- 57:42Speaker 1: up which you, know when you have that long of a,
- 57:44Speaker 1: card of course it's gonna. Be AND i kind of
- 57:47Speaker 1: had to watch. IT i watched ABOUT i think the
- 57:50Speaker 1: first four fights THEN i had to go to. Work
- 57:53Speaker 1: so it was like and they started it about forty
- 57:57Speaker 1: or they started that first fight about forty or fifty
- 58:00Speaker 1: minutes later than what they said it was going to.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Be SO i really THOUGHT i WAS i was timed up,
- 58:05Speaker 1: perfectly you, Know but it's like, nope uh, SO i
- 58:08Speaker 1: BUT i did manage to get home late at night
- 58:12Speaker 1: with a couple, buddies AND i. HADN'T i. Hadn't well, unfortunately,
- 58:16Speaker 1: nobody you, know nobody said anything to me like walking
- 58:20Speaker 1: in the bar.
- 58:20Speaker 3: Round that's what that's changed in THE, US i think.
- 58:23Speaker 1: The other part about. It, yeah, RIGHT i was able
- 58:26Speaker 1: to keep it a secret the whole, time you.
- 58:28Speaker 3: Know, yeah twenty years, ago even you, know it would
- 58:30Speaker 3: be dope way you would not find out. One but
- 58:33Speaker 3: that's what's. CHANGED i noticed that over twenty years. Too
- 58:35Speaker 3: you could down you have to. Record nobody's going to
- 58:38Speaker 3: tell you who what? All you have to talk on social,
- 58:40Speaker 3: media sports the sports. Reports you, KNOW i won't even
- 58:45Speaker 3: put it on The.
- 58:46Speaker 1: Yeah it asked to me some kind of highlight real
- 58:48Speaker 1: knockout or some kind of like after the bell and
- 58:51Speaker 1: the fighters go out of the bring or, something or you,
- 58:54Speaker 1: know or they'll you, know they'll have it on the bottom.
- 58:56Speaker 1: Line but as long as you don't watch the bottom,
- 58:58Speaker 1: line so it's. Right, YEAH i did like like you,
- 59:03Speaker 1: SAID i liked the back and forth of, it and
- 59:06Speaker 1: there was multiple rounds just looking at the, numbers like
- 59:10Speaker 1: the eighth, round both of them landing over twenty. Punches
- 59:14Speaker 1: the ninth Round smith landed thirty, Two bwatzi twenty. Six
- 59:19Speaker 1: the next, round the tenth, round it's flip flop thirty
- 59:22Speaker 1: five to twenty. FIVE i, mean these guys are really
- 59:25Speaker 1: going for, it and like you, said multiple times they
- 59:28Speaker 1: both got hurt or at least. Buzzed and Yeah, SMITH
- 59:32Speaker 1: i liked how, he like you, said all those punches he,
- 59:35Speaker 1: landed but he was also kind of changing up the
- 59:37Speaker 1: speed on. It sometimes he was just going to the
- 59:40Speaker 1: body and he wasn't going for some kind of, knockout
- 59:43Speaker 1: but he was just he was just paddling up the
- 59:45Speaker 1: points and keeping the pressure. On AND i like also
- 59:48Speaker 1: what you said about there are times where we've seen
- 59:52Speaker 1: him kind of not do as much when things are
- 59:55Speaker 1: not going as, good and for him to push back
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: keep doing, it that was a Great that was his
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: best performance as a professional.
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: FIGHTER i would have that argument with.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: That, yep that was. Good that was very, good and
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: he definitely proved me wrong when it came to, push
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: came to. Shove that was that was a Great that
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: was a great, fight like you, said and, hopefully you,
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: know we get you, know more of these type of.
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: Fights we don't want this to Win fight of The
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: year because it's Only, february, right, Right BUT i, mean
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: that was that was a damn good. Fight in, fact
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: we watched, well since The parker fight didn't do, much you,
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: know we watched the the main, event and THEN i was, like,
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: dude we got to watch this other. Fight SO i
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: actually we went back and watched kabel In zang and
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: then this one, too and they love this. Fight they
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: liked both of, them but they really were all about this.
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: Fight that's. Good that's good to hear that somebody who
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: doesn't always see the stuff seeing, that because that was
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: a good one for somebody like that's that's the type
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: of fight we need people who don't watch boxing all
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: the time to. See.
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: Yeah AND i AND, i you, know throughout the last few,
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: weeks WHEN i would come across SOMEONE i knew that,
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: was you, know a semi casual or casual, FAN i
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: would tell him about this and AND, i you, know
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: BECAUSE i tell him about the, zone but the fact
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: that you have to sign up for, it it's kind
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: of LIKE i don't want that to get in the way,
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: Either SO i do tell them about the pay per
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: view dot com or you, know technically if you have
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: cable you could, UH i think you could still order
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: it that.
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: WAY i don't, know but yeah they. DID I i
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: didn't hear that till the last, moment but THEN i
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: THAT'S i heard, it and they had.
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: IT i shouldn't talk about that at.
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: All, yeah, no they did. Not you, KNOW i got

- 1:02:46Speaker 1: Yeah when you have to like google stuff to try
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: to learn how to and that's just like. Man and
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: then they Also i'll say this the zone from a
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: customer friendly. Thing they haven't been friendly Because i'll see
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: all the, time not all the, time BUT i have
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: seen plenty of people SAY i got charged for an
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: extra month or even, says when you, quit you're getting
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: an extra. Month it's, like, what, LIKE i gotta pay

- 1:03:15Speaker 1: doesn't seem a. LOT i get that they have to
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: make a certain number or, whatever but, LIKE i don't.
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: Know they hit me up for extra five, bucks WHICH
- 1:03:24Speaker 3: i couldn't even figure out what it was supposed to.
- 1:03:26Speaker 3: Be BUT i hate doing, this BUT i didn't have
- 1:03:29Speaker 3: the energy TO i didn't have the energy to fight
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: with them about.
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: It i'd fight exactly for five.
- 1:03:34Speaker 3: Bucks i'm, like, MAN i don't feel like it on
- 1:03:36Speaker 3: the line for somebody and try.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: To, yeah that's what it comes down, to, like you know,
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: what just just.
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: Whatever, yeah they hit me up for an extra five,
- 1:03:45Speaker 3: bucks Which i'm still scratching my head, about.
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: Right AND i wonder if they are they just obviously
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: want people to go to the app or. Whatever but,
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: YEAH i didn't hear anything about you could do it on,
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: cable like normally that's been, forever you could do it
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: on YOUR i saw it the very last. SECOND i saw,
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: that AND i was, like oh, wait it's available on cable,
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: Too like why aren't you telling people about?
- 1:04:10Speaker 3: This you, KNOW i didn't get people that.
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: Won't get it just because of the disown. Thing.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: RIGHT i was shocked fight. MORNING i saw it on
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: my DIRECT tv AFTER i heard it was on cable and,
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: stuff AND i didn't order it off of that for
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: the REASONS i. Said but it was available the morning
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: of the fight on my DIRECT, tv AND i thought
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: the same. THING i, thought this hasn't been publicized at.
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: ALL i didn't know it at.
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: ALL i hadn't been telling anybody or. NOTHING i don't.
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: Know it's proof though that they're not doing anything for
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: us sensibilities except for Having ortiz And stevenson on the.
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: Card but let's speak.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: And we'll talk about that a little later, too because
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: it is interesting how great of a card it. Was
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: but you know what kind of like if if that
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: card's not putting a dent into, it that's not a
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: great sign per se because it's A i, mean we
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: even tak talking about last week odds, wise good luck
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: trying to match that. Card it's gonna.
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: Be got to give that. Card you're not gonna be
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: very hard to match that card odds.
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: On very. Hard we might have to get like the
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: federal government to put up some money for. That you, know,
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: yeah otherwise they still.
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: If they still exist in a couple of, yeah exactly
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: at the pace That musk's.
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: Going, yeah maybe that's where, well you, know we're supposed
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: to the five thousand dollars you, know thing they're gonna
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: give out to some. People maybe they'll give it out to,
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: boxing because like we, Said trump was a is a boxing.
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: FAN i think you, know he's got enough on his
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: table now with all with all, this, yeah, cause but
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: BUT i still think there's something to. THAT i, Mean
- 1:05:43Speaker 3: Dana white was sitting right there with him at the. Inauguration,
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: YEAH i, mean and he's supposedly getting together With Turkey
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: alaschic to try to do something with, yeah, BOXING i,
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: mean that's that's credible. Reports so you're not far you're
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: not far removed from, it, literally.
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: YEAH i mean They're, yeah and you, know we'll see
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: what happens To Ali act and all. THAT i mean
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: that stuff could definitely move So ortiz And. Modrumov so
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: going into this, THING i made sure to write it
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: down WHAT i saw plus one ninety for decision For
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: teas and plus two point fifteen For. Madrumov so it you,
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: know on, paper very close fight, OBVIOUSLY i thought Madra
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: mov actually got off to a pretty good. Start he
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: was doing that stick and move where He sergio kind
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: of talked about it throughout the, fight but at TIMES
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: i thought didn't relay it all that. Well but when
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: he does move in and, out not necessarily move on
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: the outside the whole, time BECAUSE i don't think that wins,
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: fights especially if you're really picky and, choosy when you're
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: gonna throw punches instead of clean. Potshots that's WHY i
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: always go back To mayweather with this, stuff because it's,
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: like all, right do he's not gonna throw but forty
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: punches in a, round but you know they're gonna be
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: about twenty of them land and you're gonna see, it you.
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: Know SO i thought he had a good, start and
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: then it was kind of back and. Forth it Took
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: ortiz a little time to warm up and get his
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: jab going in the, one two and the body, shots
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: AND i did like WHAT i saw out Of madramuff
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: for maybe the first maybe six eight. Rounds then it
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: seemed Like ortiz started to get his jab, going attacking the,
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: body letting his hands go and slowing him, down cutting
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: the ring. Off what were your thoughts on this, fight
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: because it was another you, know that's the. Thing there
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: were competitive fights on this you, know on this car
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: this was very competitive as.
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: Well, yeah competitive fight this this. ONE i felt LIKE
- 1:07:52Speaker 3: i had the best handle on analysis wise where it
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: played out the WAY i thought it was gonna because to,
- 1:08:00Speaker 3: me even in the first half of the, fight even
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: though he was more, EFFECTIVE i thought the power Of
- 1:08:06Speaker 3: ortiz Had madrumov doing too much of that jumping in and,
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: out and the commentators did touch on. That you, know
- 1:08:13Speaker 3: he's he's not as effective when he starts doing that too.
- 1:08:16Speaker 3: Much he was doing it too, much AND i think
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: it was because Of ortiz's. Power then what changed late
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: in the fight where he ended up being less even less,
- 1:08:25Speaker 3: Effective BUT i think that's where you become almost like
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: panicked because he wasn't being, Effective like he stood and
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: he got more, aggressive but it was it was like.
- 1:08:40Speaker 4: It was like he didn't really believe in himself, Anymore like.
- 1:08:42Speaker 3: He was just closing his eyes almost and throwing, yats
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: and like he wasn't like standing, there like really about
- 1:08:50Speaker 3: being tried to be an effective boxer who changed tactics
- 1:08:55Speaker 3: and was now going to stand and slug with. Him
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: it was just like kind of like winding up just, yeah,
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: wild not cleaned at, all throwing wild, shots and you, KNOW.
- 1:09:05Speaker 4: I give, IT i got.
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: IT i do have. TO i did have to end
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: up giving it to. Him he did stand, more but
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: it wasn't. Effective and it looked to me like at
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: that point Or ortiz had kind of gotten to him
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: a little mentally where he just you, know was desperate
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: and and and wasn't you, know really staying with you,
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: know Because i've seen him fight good like that as
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: his pro career went. On you AND i talked about
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: that when we were reviewing. IT i thought when he started,
- 1:09:33Speaker 3: staying he was going to get, that and he. Was
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: he was throwing wild shots and missing, wildly and it
- 1:09:39Speaker 3: just Wasn't it wasn't like. Effective And, orties as the
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: commentators were, mentioning AND i, Agreed ortiz really seemed to
- 1:09:47Speaker 3: find his boxing groove even. More. Uh he was mixing
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: it up from boxing to landing a lot of good
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: body shots and uh.
- 1:09:54Speaker 4: He finished very.
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: Strong the mystery now to me With ortiz because IS
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: i was somebody saying. It BUT i can't fully blame
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: myself because nobody's got a real good. Explanation why why
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: is the weight thing seemingly?
- 1:10:09Speaker 4: Okay?
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: NOW i, mean you know he was totally laid out. Everything,
- 1:10:14Speaker 3: yeah we know it was one forty seven OUs one
- 1:10:16Speaker 3: fifty four seven. Pounds it's not that that's, nothing but
- 1:10:20Speaker 3: for it to be.
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: That, dramatic you, know like multiple, times multiple.
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: Times there's something what's going on? HERE i, MEAN i
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: know what, Happened and you, know when you're we try
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: to analyze, fighters so you really do want to know this.
- 1:10:34Speaker 3: STUFF i MEAN i KINDA i kind of need to
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: hear some credible information from somebody who knows what they're talking,
- 1:10:40Speaker 3: about who would have knowledge.
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: Like like what happened?
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: Here you, know like, yeah or did he just have
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: some condition that wasn't necessarily linked to the weight which
- 1:10:50Speaker 3: they were saying.
- 1:10:50Speaker 4: And you kind of didn't believe.
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: It but but, again seeing what we see, NOW i
- 1:10:54Speaker 3: DON'T i don't know what. Happened i'm going to say,
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: NOW i don't know what happened. Here i'm kind of
- 1:11:00Speaker 3: kind of had a loss for theories now of exactly
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: what happened because to, me the seven that's WHY i was,
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: saying go.
- 1:11:05Speaker 4: Middleweight they did talk about, it there's nobody.
- 1:11:07Speaker 3: THERE i still think he could do, that but he's
- 1:11:11Speaker 3: proven to me now he could make one fifty, four
- 1:11:14Speaker 3: WHICH i. Thought he's not going to be even able
- 1:11:16Speaker 3: to do. That he'll be drained and not. Effective SO
- 1:11:18Speaker 3: i DON'T i really don't know what happened. Here i'd like.
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: To i'd like to hear some inside stories of what
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: was going on With ortiz there so we can add
- 1:11:27Speaker 3: that to properly analyze. Him because he. Did he did
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: look real good and he's an undefeated guy with a
- 1:11:32Speaker 3: lot of, power and he showed a lot of Skill saturday,
- 1:11:35Speaker 3: too so you, know, REALLY i think the shame is
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: this guy's been with the own too. Long he's Not
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: he's never gotten THE us. Exposure you, know he's An
- 1:11:45Speaker 3: american who, has you, know STRONG us sensibilities for a
- 1:11:49Speaker 3: guy who would build a huge, following but the exposure's
- 1:11:52Speaker 3: never been.
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: There, YEAH i think it's only been on One canelo,
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: card maybe two tops when he was. Younger but, yeah.
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: Yeah not not, enough you, know not enough these other
- 1:12:05Speaker 3: guys Like, stevenson you, know AND i always remind, people you,
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: know don't Forget tank with all THOSE pbc FREE tv,
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: appearances so to, speak on his way, up you, know
- 1:12:17Speaker 3: WHEN pbc was first getting. GOING i, mean you know these,
- 1:12:20Speaker 3: guys you, know you can't underestimate. THAT i, mean those
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: are so there's we're talking about a matchup. There those
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: guys have been. Seen Virgil ortiz as good as he
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: is and entertaining, style great us sensibilities as An, american
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: he just really hasn't been, seen you, know outside of
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: real hardcore, fans even though he is An, american and
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: it's it's it's a shame because you could give him
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: some big spots. Now but but where you're going to
- 1:12:45Speaker 3: generate the, momentum you, know he would actually that's where
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: you have to would almost have to bring an opponent
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: who's been, seen you, know and and do it that.
- 1:12:55Speaker 3: Way uh you, know they might they might have to
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: start thinking about somebody like that for when he's going
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: to have a big, fight because otherwise it's just gonna
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: kind of tread and water in terms of.
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: Exposure, YEAH i, mean what's he gonna do like cash
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: Out spence or, something you know WHAT i, mean like
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: gonna want to take the, fight you, KNOW i guess
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: if someone makes it out of. That Tim Zoo thurman
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: plan they have where they both get a fight when
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: they fight later the. Summer that would be. Something but,
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: yeah you're, right and once, again you know In texas
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: he does pretty. Well we've seen his crowd, grow you,
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: know like you, say he's got the, style he's got
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: he's got real. Skill. Right that's the thing about this.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: Fight not only did he dominate to the body sixty
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: five to twenty, two but sixty to thirty with the jab.
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: Too so Like Maja, mob you gotta win the, jab
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: but if you're not winning the, jeb what are you?
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: Doing then you know WHAT i? Mean and that's the
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: THING i think he he's too picky and choosy with his.
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: Punches and, then like you, said it was a little
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: too late to start winging it and kind of going
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: back to some of those old. Habits and at least
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: when he did, that he wasn't fighting that kind of caliber.
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: Guy so he's still land the punch. Cleanly but, now
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: like you, said he didn't he wasn't really landing much
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: of those at. All so you, know there was that
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: stuff after the fight because you, know as we, know
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: he had a fight With Boa, chuck then he got
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: sick and then all of a sudden he had you,
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: know he was already scheduled for ties and then now he's, saying,
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: well you, know about a week, ago somebody SAID i
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: shouldn't have. Fight you, know it's, like, Well i'm, sorry you,
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: know it's just too. Bad Nobody i'm. Playing you, know you're.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: Sick you wouldn't go on a seventeen hour flight, either,
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: propably you know WHAT i. Mean, so, yeah that that
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: doesn't that doesn't bode. WELL i THINK i think he's
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: a very good. FIGHTER i think that what you said
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: with the crop thing and the weight thing rang true as.
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: Well he didn't look as good this. Fight obviously it's
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: a different, fight different fighter With, ortiz but, yeah ortis,
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: man he uh now that he's got, however he got
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: that in. Order, yeah this guy is a damn good.
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: Fighter he's got the right, mantell he's got a great. Corner, yeah,
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: man he did. It he did his. Thing it took
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: a little, while AND i kind of liked that for
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: him because if you look at the first six, rounds
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: it could have been tied or whatever it. Was it
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: was a competitive. Fight but, yeah he just kept you,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: know boxing slash going to the body slashed bigger, shots
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: AND i really liked WHAT i saw that that.
- 1:15:42Speaker 4: Was a very, good very good, performance.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: Very good. Performance and you, know he's the guy that
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: we thought he was gonna fight Stantoni. Is we thought he.
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: Was you, know he's been right on the cusp of
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: a big, fight you, know and it's always gotten taken
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: away from him one way or the. Other and he
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: Even stanonius got uh what was it his tonsils or something.
- 1:16:05Speaker 3: Something, yeah health, Problem, yeah he had a health.
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: Problem it was appendix or something. Like it was just, like,
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: man these two are just. Jinks so it is nice
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: now that both of them get an. Opportunity Obviously ortiz
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: took advantage of. His we'll see what he does Against
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: Boots stanonius That i'm really looking forward to that fight as.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: Well let's talk About ottomas And. Chiraz this one speaking
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: of trying to pick for the perfect punch and not
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: really punch a whole, lot looking for just the, picture,
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: perfect highlight real punch or. SOMETHING i don't know what
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: the Hell shiraz is. Doing we've seen shades of, that
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: BUT i thought the Way adamas was actually coming to.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: Him so what do you think of? This, fight and
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: you do have people making a big deal About. Turkey
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: he basically just went up to him and, said, hey you're.
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: Two you know you have two. Left you have to
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: win these two, fights, right you, Know i'll say this real.
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: Quick people from the promotion find not, always but we
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: have seen people know the. Score but sometimes it's at,
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: home the home, score you, know like someone's. Watching they
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: call him and, say, hey, dude you're down by. Two
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: sometimes one of the trainers will be near the judge
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: and so they can see something or. WHATEVER i thought
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: it was a little, overblown BUT i don't. Know It's
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: it's like the Way turkey comes across, is, Hey i'm
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: just making great. Fights you're starting to see who he
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: wants to win the, fights you know WHAT i? Mean
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: and even better be it the way he spoke of.
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: Him it was like looking at his Next he didn't
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: really you. Know so that's kind of this, guy and
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: you know that's a natural thing if you're a. Promoter
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: but it's just kind of the run of the mill
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: type boxing. Stuff so what did you think did did
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: you think anything of? THAT i, mean he's just talking
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: to the. Corner, well first of, all you, know two
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: rounds or maybe he's saying you're down by, two you know,
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: whatever not.
- 1:18:22Speaker 3: Time not saying not trying to sound, naive But i've
- 1:18:25Speaker 3: always thought it's a it's a good time to bring it.
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: UP i have always thought myself this, idea, like you,
- 1:18:31Speaker 3: know a promoter's you're promoting a, fight even maybe if
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: he's got a guy that you, know where's with somebody
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: else or something against one of his, guys but he's
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: promoting the. FIGHT i always thought, that you, know this
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: idea that like then the promoter could just like root
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: for his guy when he's promoting a. Fight i've Never
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: i've never THOUGHT i don't think it should be considered.
- 1:18:57Speaker 3: ACCEPTING i, mean you, KNOW I i just think in,
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: General i've always had a problem THAT i, mean we
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: see it's just completely, common and you, Know hearn's become
- 1:19:05Speaker 3: the worst at. IT i, mean you, know jumping, around you,
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: know cheering for, guy you, know walking guys into the.
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: Ring you're the, promoter what do you what do you
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: what do you walking a guy into the ring for you, know.
- 1:19:16Speaker 4: Hold the belts and yeah, RIGHT i mean holding the,
- 1:19:20Speaker 4: belt hold the belts and all that kind of.
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: Stuff so it's a little bit like that to be
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: because Obviously Turkey Ali sheik's involved in the. PROMOTION i
- 1:19:28Speaker 3: think this one probably really does come down, to like
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: some people were, SAYING i, saw and this is WHERE
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: i guess it depends what the real facts are of what.
- 1:19:37Speaker 4: Happened, YEAH i.
- 1:19:39Speaker 3: Saw one guy was saying that at the moment he did,
- 1:19:43Speaker 3: that and this is outside of the part of he's
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: rooting for. Somebody but, like where did it even get the?
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: Information one guy, saying, well it was time with like
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: HIS ai. Judge he was just reporting what HIS ai you,
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: know he had the fourth a ey judge or. Whatever
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: and then other people were, saying which if it did
- 1:20:01Speaker 3: happen this, way it's it is totally wrong that you,
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: know he's actually being let known what's going on in
- 1:20:07Speaker 3: the school the, scorecards Because i've never been in favor
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: of open. SCORING i, think you, know that's something you
- 1:20:12Speaker 3: need to boxing and goes back, throughout you, know traditions of.
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: Boxing we don't want to ruin, that like all kinds
- 1:20:18Speaker 3: of other things that are getting ruined in. Boxing so,
- 1:20:21Speaker 3: yeah how where did he get the information? From? Matters
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: but then generally my own preference, is, YEAH i don't
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: like people being involved in the, promotion even if it's
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: their fight or somebody, else like walking got people to the,
- 1:20:35Speaker 3: ring or openly he's supposed to be involved in the,
- 1:20:38Speaker 3: promotion you.
- 1:20:39Speaker 7: Know you, KNOW i just like you've done your, job
- 1:20:44Speaker 7: sit back and enjoy the. Fight, yeah you're supposed to
- 1:20:46Speaker 7: make sure just the fight gets you, know the fight gets.
- 1:20:50Speaker 7: PROMOTED i mean it makes, money the fighters make. Money you,
- 1:20:54Speaker 7: know you get as many viewers as, possible as many
- 1:20:56Speaker 7: people as, possible you, know not not being some cheer
- 1:20:59Speaker 7: leader in there for your guy walking them to the.
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: Ring and you, know.
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: Whether Would javonte do that a couple of times?
- 1:21:07Speaker 3: Too, Yeah so like, yeah GENERALLY i don't like. IT
- 1:21:11Speaker 3: i don't. Know but, then like you, SAID i thought
- 1:21:14Speaker 3: the same, thing like was it maybe the big deal
- 1:21:18Speaker 3: that some people are making.
- 1:21:19Speaker 4: OUT i don't, KNOW i. DON'T i don't like that
- 1:21:21Speaker 4: type of thing in.
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: General. Yeah and and and you KNOW i thought shere
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: as his performance was, TERRIBLE i hyped him going in
- 1:21:29Speaker 3: based on the fight with the Two williams Is liam And.
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: Ammo and you know it's you try to people have
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: bad nights and, things and there's different. Styles BUT i
- 1:21:39Speaker 3: don't know WHAT i saw. Here this was more like
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: he was. Early Sheer as was earlier in his, career
- 1:21:43Speaker 3: so you, KNOW i was really from this. FIGHT i
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: thought the draw was a. ROBBERY i got some debate
- 1:21:50Speaker 3: with some people that are, like, well you, know, Yeah
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: adamus might have won, it but it wasn't a. Robbery
- 1:21:56Speaker 3: i'll say that here. Tonight you.
- 1:21:57Speaker 4: Know that's What i've been.
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: SAYING i felt that was a rob AND i Picked
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: sheerras going, in so, yeah we both. Did that's got
- 1:22:04Speaker 3: to tell you a lot. TOO i mean Like i'm
- 1:22:05Speaker 3: really hyping the. GUY i really believed. Him that's to
- 1:22:07Speaker 3: me how bad it. Was like the bell rung for round,
- 1:22:10Speaker 3: twelve you, know at the end of round, twelve round,
- 1:22:14Speaker 3: twelve and in the, fight And i'm, like this is
- 1:22:15Speaker 3: an easy win for A. Damis you, KNOW i was
- 1:22:18Speaker 3: like it was a nine to, MYSELF i was thinking
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: it was a, nine three eight four at best For,
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: as And i'm getting.
- 1:22:24Speaker 4: Drawn i'm, like.
- 1:22:24Speaker 3: What what what you? Got i'm, like you got to
- 1:22:27Speaker 3: be kidding. ME i, MEAN i thought A damas did
- 1:22:29Speaker 3: a good, job you, know walking down a much bigger,
- 1:22:34Speaker 3: guy getting him. Worse so the guy's not coming, forward
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: not getting a leverage on his. Punch he's you, know head,
- 1:22:41Speaker 3: movement was boxing with it like he he, didn't you,
- 1:22:46Speaker 3: know he didn't have to do it. Recklessly that's what
- 1:22:48Speaker 3: surprised me. TOO i, agree head movement. Boxing he's now
- 1:22:52Speaker 3: him With. Sallas you, know you've seen fights where his
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: boxing really has seemed to improve a, lot starting with
- 1:22:58Speaker 3: the Derevajan chenko, fight AND i agree with you in this.
- 1:23:02Speaker 3: One you, know he was coming, forward pushing him, back
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: but it wasn't. Reckless you, know he was boxing, well
- 1:23:08Speaker 3: he was the only guy laying in the, punches throwing the.
- 1:23:11Speaker 3: Punches he was the. AGGRESSOR i, mean where was there
- 1:23:14Speaker 3: to give Sheer as anything in this? FIGHT i mean
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: then then you hear the excuses about the hand. AFTERWARD i,
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: mean and maybe her his, hand but he was. DREADFUL
- 1:23:22Speaker 3: i mean it was just for a guy who everybody
- 1:23:25Speaker 3: seemed to agree going into that, fight including. Myself this
- 1:23:29Speaker 3: is this is the star making. Opportunity if he could
- 1:23:33Speaker 3: load on A damas who's at the top of a
- 1:23:35Speaker 3: weak middleweight division With Emma, klouley you, Know Janna, beck
- 1:23:39Speaker 3: they're right, there you, know but that's one of the two.
- 1:23:42Speaker 3: Guys you, know if he could dismantle this, GUY i
- 1:23:44Speaker 3: mean he's a, star you. Know not only did he
- 1:23:47Speaker 3: not dismantle, him he couldn't even clearly beat him by.
- 1:23:50Speaker 3: Decision he couldn't even look. Good he looked he looked.
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: Terrible he looked like before a Fighting liam And Liam
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: williams And Ammo. Williams that that's the way he used
- 1:23:59Speaker 3: to see the, guy even though he was on a knockout.
- 1:24:02Speaker 3: Run but it was against very low, opposition you, know
- 1:24:06Speaker 3: JUST i, thought you, know talk about a. Guy you,

- 1:25:07Speaker 3: they want to show me, that Maybe i'll rethink it
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: a little, bit not that, much because you, know he
- 1:25:11Speaker 3: just wasn't doing.
- 1:25:12Speaker 4: Other good things in.
- 1:25:13Speaker 3: There it wasn't, Like, okay he's got the one hand,
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: hurt but he's doing all these other good things in,
- 1:25:18Speaker 3: there and he's controlling the range and. STUFF i, mean
- 1:25:20Speaker 3: he hurt a hand so he couldn't keep a domis
- 1:25:23Speaker 3: off them at, all you, know with with with one you,
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: know one good, hand with the other hand being one
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: good hand being. Involved you, know if he really broke
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: his hand, bad you, know we know how that would be.
- 1:25:36Speaker 3: Tough but you didn't see, it like you didn't like
- 1:25:39Speaker 3: see a moment during the fight like that. Either, Yeah,
- 1:25:42Speaker 3: yeah you're, Right, yeah like like where he was real
- 1:25:45Speaker 3: effective and all of a, Sudden, oh why.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: Is right he dropped?
- 1:25:50Speaker 4: Off why is he dropped?
- 1:25:52Speaker 3: Off he was looking you, Know i've had a lot
- 1:25:54Speaker 3: of fights like that would have really, like, look you, know,
- 1:25:57Speaker 3: people a lot of people for some. REASON i don't
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: know why is a really good fighter just because they
- 1:26:02Speaker 3: decided to like a fight once a. Year but you
- 1:26:04Speaker 3: know that one fight When Gary, russell then you know.
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: They clearly see like his, shoulder you, know it was, like,
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: yeah you, know he's.
- 1:26:17Speaker 3: Looking fine and he's throwing. NOTHING i, mean you know
- 1:26:19Speaker 3: we seen fights like. That this was not one of
- 1:26:22Speaker 3: those fights like your ass is looking good all you,
- 1:26:25Speaker 3: know this is WHAT i thought he'd, be you, know
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: and then what? Happened then you're, going oh what? Happened
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: now he's just like you're, Waiting you're. Waiting you're, like
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: where is? It where is it That you're, like this
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: guy is losing the. Fight then you're, like this guy
- 1:26:37Speaker 3: is losing the fight.
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: Badly, yeah, yeah just he had his jab and that's about,
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: it and he just Never, yeah it's like he's just
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: waiting for and he's just waiting for the perfect shot
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: because we know he's got power or, Whatever but LIKE
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: i think MAYBE i would to your point of you,
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: know the first six rounds he was doing his thing
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: and then it fell. Off but we've also seen him
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: fight like. This you, know it hasn't been in a,
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: while but we have seen him fight like, that and
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: that was kind of LIKE i was a little, like,
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: well let's see what he does, here and then all
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: of a sudden we started seeing. MORE i was, like,
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: yeah this guy is the real. Deal but, yeah and
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: then if you look at what is, it it's seventy
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: three to nine to the body, Too Like adam has
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: just went there enough and it is with that reach
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: that's very tough to get to, him you. Know AND i,
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: thought like you, said he did a good. Job he
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: didn't go down of, control he didn't swing. Wildly he
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: was just very you, know precise and. Consistent and LIKE i,
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: said that upper there's times LIKE i think if you
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: fought him, again he would he would really start to
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: hurt him because that upper body movement in the head,
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: movement if he can get that clicking even, better he
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: could have really Hurt. SHARAZ i think. So and it's
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: not like adamis is known for his power.
- 1:28:03Speaker 3: Either you, know, yeah NOW i think you know now
- 1:28:05Speaker 3: for me and that, Fight adamus lifted his stock because
- 1:28:09Speaker 3: he showed that boxing thing wasn't LIKE i don't want
- 1:28:14Speaker 3: to call it a, fluke but you, know it's hard
- 1:28:16Speaker 3: for a guy who hadn't done it to kind of
- 1:28:18Speaker 3: stick with, it like, Yeah like you, know we saw
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: it Against dara Van, schenko even though he fought in
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: a different style here where that fight he was just
- 1:28:26Speaker 3: boxing dere Vine. Schenko in this, fight he was being,
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: aggressive but it was still boxing. Skill and You sallas
- 1:28:32Speaker 3: is really good at at teaching, that and you saw it.
- 1:28:36Speaker 3: Here it was effective regression boxing. Skill he wasn't afraid
- 1:28:41Speaker 3: to go after the big guy and push him, back and,
- 1:28:45Speaker 3: uh really good performance for. Him up to, STOCK i
- 1:28:49Speaker 3: thought he certainly wanted to me the draw was a
- 1:28:52Speaker 3: robbery of a. Damis you, know you, KNOW i just
- 1:28:58Speaker 3: thought HE i thought he clearly won the. Fight SO
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: i think his stock went up shere as big big
- 1:29:05Speaker 3: stock drop for, me real real big stock drop for.
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: Me. Yeah and even if you had him only win
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: seven to, five it was a clear seven to, five you,
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: know BECAUSE i was in that seven to five eight four,
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: RANGE i had it maybe a little more, competitive but,
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: LIKE i, mean one of the judges had at one
- 1:29:26Speaker 1: eighteen one, ten you know, what the and then this
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: one fifteen one fourteen is is kind of a funny.
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: Thing they did have one dry, ass SO i, mean you,
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: KNOW i kind of hate doing, this but it is somewhat.
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: True at least it was a. Draw you, know he
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: didn't take an l blah blah. Blah but.
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: And since he was an underdog at, least, yeah you,
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: know even though he won the fight a, thought but,
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: draw he was an underdog going.
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: In, yeah gets to keep his, belt you. Know, YEAH
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: i mean his stock. Deservedly, Yeah so it does help
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: a little, bit but it's still he should have been
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: given the, victory no doubt about, it and it did.
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: CLEARLY i think you broke down That turkey stuff directly
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: BECAUSE i. Agree i'm not a fan of, it and
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: it never used to be that way, really but since
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: we have seen an abundance of it, now LIKE i
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: can't freak out all of a sudden just Because turkey's doing.
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: It but he did the first. TIME i didn't know
- 1:30:33Speaker 1: what the hell he was. Saying but the second view
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: that they gave had had good audio and he said
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: you're down by. Two he said it straight. Up so it's,
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: like once, again this is kind of run of the
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: mill boxing stuff that we keep. Hearing he's. Different it's, like,
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: okay this this freaking card was. Different that's for damn,
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: sure we'll never deny. That but there's also things Where i'm,
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: like like the, uh like THE U bank ben fight
- 1:31:06Speaker 1: that's got a special video game, belt you, know and.
- 1:31:11Speaker 4: That's pure, that that's PURE uk sensibility.
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: Stuff like, Yeah i'm not saying they can't market, that
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: but this is like What i'm saying FOR us, boxing
- 1:31:20Speaker 3: we have a, problem like you, know de zones basing
- 1:31:23Speaker 3: themselves in THE UK uk video thing they're building, up you,
- 1:31:27Speaker 3: know you know BEN U bank's got NO US i
- 1:31:30Speaker 3: don't want to say NO us appeal BECAUSE i don't
- 1:31:32Speaker 3: really mean, that but, like you, KNOW i mean that
- 1:31:33Speaker 3: that's A uk sensibilities. Fight it's not like that's like
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: a perfect example of we talk to certain fights WITH us,
- 1:31:40Speaker 3: Sensibilities like that's just totally TO uk, Sensibilities like it's
- 1:31:45Speaker 3: not it's not anything ABOUT U us Sensibilities and and
- 1:31:49Speaker 3: that was a big part of you, know their promo
- 1:31:52Speaker 3: in it in that card with that video game and. Stuff,
- 1:31:57Speaker 3: yeah and now this week again that it's not building
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: anything for THE us market.
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: And it's nothing. New and, hey if you get a
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: sponsor for a, video you, know that's. Fine you, know
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: we need more sponsors in, boxing but you didn't need
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: to make a damn. Belt you, know now we're going
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: to start fighting for that belt, too or you, know
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: it's just kind of. Weird let's talk about the main.
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: Event you could tell it was a deep card that
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: we're just now getting to the main Event. Bevol it's
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: weird because the WAY i broke, DOWN i was starting
- 1:32:35Speaker 1: to kind of follow people's scorecards and obviously the live
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: scorecard in the real scorecards and all, that AND i
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: kind of broke it down to those although it john
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: it didn't come down to the first two, rounds BUT
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: i noticed that if it was too Old, beval there's
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: a good chance you either had to draw or For.
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: Beval but if you had it won, one there was
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: a good chance you had to draw or the other,
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: way you, know for better be. IT i had it one,
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: one because then after that the, third, fourth, fifth and,
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: sixth that was all better be. Off and it's really,
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: weird how, like, well remember we were talking about maybe
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: it could be a case if it's the thirteenth round
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: and better be of just picks right up where he left.
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: Off and that's exactly what he did right through six, rounds,
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: However and that's WHAT i love about. Boxing and sometimes
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: when you get a rematch or, whatever then you, know
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: unexpected stuff, happens because then you look at the, seventh,
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: eighth and, ninth all of a, Sudden bevall's doing exactly
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: what we asked them to do and throwing real hard
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: punches on top of landing the jab and scoring and
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: moving and all. That because there were some times where,
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: dude you're not gonna win this fight moving that, much
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: like it's just you're not being effective and all. That
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: but then he not necessarily just stood his ground per,
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: se but it was kind of more that in and,
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: out like just enough to where it was making BETTER
- 1:34:02Speaker 1: bf have to, reset, reset, reset and and there were
- 1:34:08Speaker 1: some spots where he had up that high guard and
- 1:34:12Speaker 1: really wasn't giving it back per se for a little
- 1:34:15Speaker 1: for some. Realms you, Know, NOW i did think down
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: the STRETCH i had tenth round better b of Eleventh
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: bvall and then the twelfth BETTER. Bf SO i had
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: it either six' sixth OR if i was going to pick,
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: A winner i would have PICKED. Better Bf but i'm okay.
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: With it what are, your thoughts, because yeah it's like
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: the fight just kind of flipped right on, Its, head john.
- 1:34:37Speaker 4: It did and on, THIS one i do have a
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: theory OF what i.
- 1:34:41Speaker 3: Think happened, and well, You, KNOW bivol i don't because
- 1:34:45Speaker 3: most of the times you have self denial or they
- 1:34:49Speaker 3: don't want to, let On like bevoll before, the fight,
- 1:34:54Speaker 3: and like, You know english is obviously a. Second language
- 1:34:56Speaker 3: BUT he i thought he like actually described why he
- 1:35:01Speaker 3: lost the, first fight like like he said. It himself,
- 1:35:03Speaker 3: he's like, YOU know. I didn't. I didn't i didn't.
- 1:35:07Speaker 3: DO enough I knew i could have, done MORE and
- 1:35:09Speaker 3: i didn't. Do Enough and i'm like, This guy, I'M
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: like i actually agree. With that and Then what i'm
- 1:35:15Speaker 3: gonna get to is he said something after the FIGHT
- 1:35:17Speaker 3: which i think for what he did fit more than
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: what anybody else is saying giving him props on which
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: here here's THE way i SAW because i did see
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: the rounds kind of like. YOU did i Thought better
- 1:35:30Speaker 3: bee edged IT but i did. See it it was
- 1:35:32Speaker 3: flipped just the way you. DESCRIBED it I mean, i
- 1:35:36Speaker 3: thought just like. You did, you know you're you're watching
- 1:35:39Speaker 3: those first, six rounds, it's Like better beev's picked up
- 1:35:43Speaker 3: where he left off the. Last fight bival's just moving.
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: Too Much he's i'm not landing, anything hard, you Know.
- 1:35:51Speaker 3: Better bev then if he comes on in the second
- 1:35:53Speaker 3: half like he did in the, first, fight yeah, he's gonna,
- 1:35:57Speaker 3: you know win this, thing clearly if, you know or
- 1:36:01Speaker 3: maybe get elite stoppage.
- 1:36:02Speaker 5: Or.
- 1:36:02Speaker 3: Something yeah but then, to me it got to the
- 1:36:06Speaker 3: second half of, the fight and, YOU know, i, thought like,
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: you know better b have just took that. First half
- 1:36:13Speaker 3: and then he looked, to me but he looked to
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: me like and bivvall was just. Moving around even the
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: commentators were saying it some, you know really not let,
- 1:36:25Speaker 3: you know maybe one moment he landed, something hard but
- 1:36:28Speaker 3: that was. About it he didn't really he, just moved,
- 1:36:31Speaker 3: you know he. Just moved but then like in the,
- 1:36:34Speaker 3: SECOND half i thought it was More better Ban Than,
- 1:36:38Speaker 3: BIVOAL like i, just thought better b have ran out.
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: Of gas, you know he's a forty year, old guy and,
- 1:36:44Speaker 3: you know some people, say, no, NO no i really
- 1:36:47Speaker 3: do think that's. WHAT happened, I mean i've heard.
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: We'll talk about, the age maybe caught up to a, little.
- 1:36:52Speaker 3: Bit yeah like like. Like one and it's kind of
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: Funny because i'm pointing out some of the good things,
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: they say and unfortunately on the whole the, WHOLE broadcast
- 1:37:01Speaker 3: i think there was a lot of bad with his.
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: Own COMMENTATORS but I guess i guess there's the positive
- 1:37:06Speaker 3: and he's just REMEMBERING when i heard something GOOD because i,
- 1:37:09Speaker 3: liked it then hook onto it if It's something, i'm
- 1:37:10Speaker 3: thinking or it fits WITH something I think i might,
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: be SEEING and i forget who. Said it it might.
- 1:37:16Speaker 3: Have been it might have been more in the, first
- 1:37:19Speaker 3: half like, you know he was, saying, like well, you
- 1:37:24Speaker 3: KNOW better b is doing doing. Real good, you know
- 1:37:26Speaker 3: it's going. His way he's, pushing it but he might
- 1:37:30Speaker 3: be he might be using up, his gas, you know and, you're,
- 1:37:34Speaker 3: thinking OH better bf comes on late. And stuff but
- 1:37:37Speaker 3: you know sometimes he's not doing that much early.
- 1:37:39Speaker 1: And comes on lake because he's got the.
- 1:37:42Speaker 3: Tank stuff just, like, running right that's just like Running
- 1:37:45Speaker 3: that that's why it reminds me to standing in like mararathioning.
- 1:37:47Speaker 4: AND running i think that's what happened to.
- 1:37:49Speaker 3: The guy and he's forty, years old and people aren't
- 1:37:52Speaker 3: taking enough account of that because even though he's been
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: really EFFECTIVE and i thought he edged, both fights but
- 1:37:57Speaker 3: she's forty. Years old he should actually be getting more credit,
- 1:37:59Speaker 3: for that because, You, know bivol he can't change the
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: age of the guy. He's fighting and the guy, was
- 1:38:04Speaker 3: undefeated but he's still fighting a forty year old guy.
- 1:38:06Speaker 3: IN matters, i mean the guy's forty years old and
- 1:38:09Speaker 3: he's had a lot, of injuries, so, like yeah he's
- 1:38:12Speaker 3: expending more energy in the first half than he, normally
- 1:38:15Speaker 3: does and that ended up BEING what i think. Really
- 1:38:17Speaker 3: happened like whatever his gas, tank is his gas tank
- 1:38:21Speaker 3: was on a quarter the second half of, that fight
- 1:38:24Speaker 3: and normally it's probably the way he.
- 1:38:26Speaker 4: Paces himself he's on three.
- 1:38:28Speaker 3: Quarters when he gets the, second half and THAT'S what
- 1:38:30Speaker 3: i thought we. Were seeing now THE part i was
- 1:38:32Speaker 3: alluding To about bivoll said after, the fight it's not
- 1:38:36Speaker 3: THE way i would have thought he had to fight
- 1:38:38Speaker 3: it to get, a WIN and i didn't think he.
- 1:38:40Speaker 3: Did win But what i'm going to give him is
- 1:38:42Speaker 3: his stamina was. So good basically he was able to
- 1:38:45Speaker 3: move for the. Twelve rounds but again this is the thing,
- 1:38:48Speaker 3: of like, to me like surprising Honesty.
- 1:38:50Speaker 4: FROM bivol i almost.
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: Attributed to the, second language, you know like maybe maybe
- 1:38:55Speaker 3: he doesn't have enough It is english vocabulary to bs.
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: Or something but like he's said after, the FIGHT and
- 1:39:01Speaker 3: i think this probably was. The case, he said, you
- 1:39:04Speaker 3: know in the, first fight in the, FIRST half i
- 1:39:07Speaker 3: tried to sometimes set that down to, hurt him to,
- 1:39:12Speaker 3: get respect and it took more energy out, of me,
- 1:39:15Speaker 3: he said, THIS time i didn't even try to. DO
- 1:39:18Speaker 3: that I just i just tried to move and not
- 1:39:20Speaker 3: even put any hurt on, this right JUST and i
- 1:39:24Speaker 3: felt stronger in the second half of the fight because
- 1:39:27Speaker 3: ONE thing i disagree with you a, Little, bit CHRIS is,
- 1:39:28Speaker 3: i thought EVEN though I thought bivol then was, winning.
- 1:39:31Speaker 4: Rounds in the, SECOND half i thought he was almost
- 1:39:34Speaker 4: like just.
- 1:39:34Speaker 3: SLAPPING him i mean, to me it was like almost
- 1:39:37Speaker 3: like a overkiller and just trying to. Score points now,
- 1:39:41Speaker 3: you know he got, the decision but like, you know
- 1:39:44Speaker 3: again THE way i, SCORE fights i, was like, you
- 1:39:47Speaker 3: know AND that's i think it's a fair, bias sometimes,
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: YOU know i do look to the aggressor MORE because
- 1:39:51Speaker 3: i think we need people.
- 1:39:52Speaker 4: Making Fights and, i'm Like better BEA's not real.
- 1:39:55Speaker 3: Effective here he's not throwing as MUCH as, i like
- 1:39:57Speaker 3: but but he's getting slapped by the other guy and
- 1:40:00Speaker 3: and the other guy's missing, a lot, You KNOW like
- 1:40:02Speaker 3: i Do think bivol was better in the. SECOND half
- 1:40:05Speaker 3: i was giving him. MORE rounds i thought that faded
- 1:40:08Speaker 3: badly until. THE twelfth i Thought better bev did really
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: good in. THE twelve i had to check after IT
- 1:40:14Speaker 3: because i was. Just curious all the judges did give him.
- 1:40:16Speaker 3: The twelfth.
- 1:40:19Speaker 4: But that's like a gas, tank too because when you're fading.
- 1:40:21Speaker 3: Like that and then you know he's getting into like say,
- 1:40:24Speaker 3: six on and he knows, he's faining he's not, feeling
- 1:40:26Speaker 3: good then sometimes all you're doing is like saving whatever
- 1:40:30Speaker 3: you got left for. The, twelfth sure BUT but i
- 1:40:33Speaker 3: heard him on the scorecards like he didn't. Hurt him
- 1:40:35Speaker 3: he won, the twelfth but you know he had to.
- 1:40:38Speaker 3: Give away but on, my card, you know he was giving. Away,
- 1:40:41Speaker 3: everything yeah got to, the twelfth and it's kind, of,
- 1:40:44Speaker 3: like dude, you know you just can't keep you just
- 1:40:46Speaker 3: can't keep giving away rounds by just, you know like,
- 1:40:49Speaker 3: you said High guard bivall not landing anything to me of,
- 1:40:52Speaker 3: real authority But better beev not, really landing, you know
- 1:40:56Speaker 3: much throwing, much back, you know really having the urgent
- 1:41:00Speaker 3: see that he did in the. First FIGHT now i
- 1:41:03Speaker 3: didn't think he had the. Gas tank and then after,
- 1:41:06Speaker 3: THE fight i thought his comments.
- 1:41:09Speaker 4: Were honest and this IS what.
- 1:41:10Speaker 3: I felt the way it played out this second fight
- 1:41:12Speaker 3: getting made, You Know better beev said after, the fight,
- 1:41:17Speaker 3: you know you can Look at JUSE's but i think
- 1:41:19Speaker 3: there's probably truth because the way the fight, CAME together
- 1:41:22Speaker 3: i think you saw evidence. Of that he, JUST said
- 1:41:24Speaker 3: i didn't want this. Fight next, YOU know. I didn't
- 1:41:26Speaker 3: i didn't feel Like fighting. BEVO again i wanted to
- 1:41:28Speaker 3: go in. Another DIRECTION now i got to kind of
- 1:41:31Speaker 3: go and get. THE win, i, think frankly, YOU know
- 1:41:33Speaker 3: i think he'll probably be, too old and if they're
- 1:41:36Speaker 3: going to do, A three i Think better bev is
- 1:41:38Speaker 3: going to be. Too old and that's just my thinking
- 1:41:41Speaker 3: OF what i saw here in the. Second half but,
- 1:41:44Speaker 3: YOU KNOW i i, my theory and the way you
- 1:41:47Speaker 3: saw him acting after, the fight, to me it just fit.
- 1:41:51Speaker 3: My theory, YOU know I, thought hearn, you Know Through Turkey,
- 1:41:55Speaker 3: ali sheek but, You know hearn's got, you know he's had,
- 1:41:58Speaker 3: a dad his own deal and every. THING too i
- 1:42:01Speaker 3: thought he just rammed this second Better be. Vivvall home,
- 1:42:05Speaker 3: YOU know i really do think that Was, primarily hearn,
- 1:42:10Speaker 3: you know Getting, to turkey alos getting to go in.
- 1:42:13Speaker 3: This direction And then, i'm thinking, You know hearn had to,
- 1:42:17Speaker 3: you know it's, his guide but he's got to have
- 1:42:20Speaker 3: some motivation. For IT and, i thought, you know when
- 1:42:24Speaker 3: you see the other deal that, WAS signed i think,
- 1:42:25Speaker 3: it fits like, you know whether it's going to be
- 1:42:29Speaker 3: an exciting fight, Or not canela rematch is going to
- 1:42:33Speaker 3: be the Biggest Payday eddie Hearn And dimitri bivol are
- 1:42:37Speaker 3: going to get Out of Hearn. Having BIVOLL so i
- 1:42:42Speaker 3: think that's, to me that's Probably what hern had. In
- 1:42:45Speaker 3: mind the only way he's going to get that Is
- 1:42:47Speaker 3: for vall to be the light heavyweight camp and uh
- 1:42:51Speaker 3: so he's got to get batter b of again now
- 1:42:53Speaker 3: or somebody else is going to. Get it and, you
- 1:42:57Speaker 3: know you saw, THE way, I mean hearn was acting
- 1:42:59Speaker 3: like a little kid after, the fight like HE was
- 1:43:02Speaker 3: i mean, YOU know i know he promotes, the GUY
- 1:43:04Speaker 3: but i actually even thought that was over. THE top,
- 1:43:06Speaker 3: i mean he's said it's the best performance he ever.
- 1:43:09Speaker 3: Saw alive any you're a promoter if you have if you,
- 1:43:13Speaker 3: haven't put if you haven't put, the fight and.
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: That means you're a little kid at boxing events and
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: you can't say.
- 1:43:21Speaker 4: Come ON.
- 1:43:24Speaker 3: So i don't have any argument with, you know people
- 1:43:27Speaker 3: That thought. BIVOL won i didn't think. HE won i
- 1:43:30Speaker 3: had a kind of. LIKE you I mean i thought
- 1:43:31Speaker 3: better be of, real strong, you know first six, or so,
- 1:43:35Speaker 3: you know Not saying bivall didn't take a round, or
- 1:43:38Speaker 3: something but then, you know dramatically running out of Gas
- 1:43:41Speaker 3: and bivall able to. Keep moving bivall not running out.
- 1:43:45Speaker 3: OF gas i, mean that, you know That's what, i'm
- 1:43:46Speaker 3: Saying that bivall did not run out. OF gas i
- 1:43:49Speaker 3: mean lost to twelve Because better beev was able to just.
- 1:43:52Speaker 3: Bring more but and You know bivall's, you know after
- 1:43:56Speaker 3: seeing these, two fights with all his, other fights, YOU
- 1:43:59Speaker 3: know i mean YOU and i both thought maybe going
- 1:44:02Speaker 3: to the, first fight was bival going to be a
- 1:44:05Speaker 3: guy that like when he was under this level, of
- 1:44:08Speaker 3: duress that he was going to feel forced to stand.
- 1:44:11Speaker 3: And fight well that's not.
- 1:44:12Speaker 8: THE case, i, mean, yeah true he is never gonna
- 1:44:18Speaker 8: he is never going to stand there and exchange, with
- 1:44:20Speaker 8: you no matter who you are or what power you're bringing.
- 1:44:23Speaker 3: After him, is, that guys the dude's not going to.
- 1:44:26Speaker 3: DO it i mean as long as he. Can move
- 1:44:27Speaker 3: maybe when he's forty if he, can't move but he's
- 1:44:31Speaker 3: not going to do.
- 1:44:31Speaker 4: IT voluntarily, i.
- 1:44:32Speaker 3: Mean after twenty four rounds WITH, better bf you could.
- 1:44:36Speaker 3: See that so the, dudes, just no that's not IN.
- 1:44:40Speaker 3: His dna he's not going to. Do that and he
- 1:44:42Speaker 3: didn't do any of that. This Time But better beev just.
- 1:44:46Speaker 3: Faded instead it came on with the exception of the
- 1:44:49Speaker 3: twelfth and you know that was the difference on the
- 1:44:52Speaker 3: way the judges. HAD it I Thought better beev did
- 1:44:55Speaker 3: enough to win. THIS one i thought he won the.
- 1:44:56Speaker 3: FIRST fight i thought his aggression. Was enough but but,
- 1:45:00Speaker 3: he's faded, you know he's he's faded some because as
- 1:45:03Speaker 3: Good as bivoll is as, a boxer and, you know
- 1:45:08Speaker 3: we've got To give bivill's chin some credit to the
- 1:45:10Speaker 3: guy's never. Been down and sometimes with boxers you can
- 1:45:13Speaker 3: tend to, miss that, you Know, like mayweather like, you
- 1:45:15Speaker 3: know as good of, a guy as defensively as. A boxer,
- 1:45:18Speaker 3: you know when when a guy gets that far in
- 1:45:19Speaker 3: their career and they've never, been down especially, you know
- 1:45:22Speaker 3: he's a, light heavyweight so. UPPER weights, i mean you've
- 1:45:26Speaker 3: got to figure there's some. Chin THERE so i give him.
- 1:45:30Speaker 3: THAT too, i mean he's he's probably not being given
- 1:45:33Speaker 3: enough credit for. His CHIN but i think Better be
- 1:45:37Speaker 3: of being a great light, heavyweight puncher even him at,
- 1:45:41Speaker 3: this point he's probably not bringing enough sharp. Power anymore
- 1:45:46Speaker 3: you know where he's gonna Like drop bivol or, you
- 1:45:49Speaker 3: know just have him wobbling all over, The place like
- 1:45:51Speaker 3: if there's going to be a, THIRD fight, i mean
- 1:45:53Speaker 3: is that going to happen in?
- 1:45:54Speaker 4: A third Better?
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: BE of.
- 1:45:56Speaker 3: I don't i don't. Think, so, so uh they're they're
- 1:46:00Speaker 3: talking like we're going to get to Start. In turkey
- 1:46:02Speaker 3: alashic had said That if, bivon won he, was. Yeah
- 1:46:05Speaker 3: three but, you know her is a pretty good judge
- 1:46:09Speaker 3: of what fighters are. Gonna do he he may maybe
- 1:46:12Speaker 3: for a third even he's not looking at better b
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: iv is that big of. A, threat yeah or like, you, said,
- 1:46:18Speaker 3: maybe uh, you know have some other fight and then
- 1:46:22Speaker 3: try to Get the canelo fight now that you Know
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: he's messadi's for.
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: FOUR FIGHTS i i hear what you're saying About. ABOUT
- 1:46:31Speaker 1: bivel i definitely didn't think he showed a bunch. Of
- 1:46:35Speaker 1: power but what my thing WAS is i think that
- 1:46:41Speaker 1: he answered back at times with punches that were you could.
- 1:46:45Speaker 1: SEE landing, i agree they weren't. Power punches he didn't
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: like stand in his ground and land these huge punches
- 1:46:54Speaker 1: that had better be. Next snap and but compared to the,
- 1:46:59Speaker 1: FIRST fight i thought he flurried back and would stemy him,
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: at times and he did to win that kind. Of fight,
- 1:47:09Speaker 1: you know we talk about for the, outside boxer you
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: have to outland. The guy, you're like that's the. First,
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: thing like if you're not outlanded, THE guy i don't
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: care how many punches that. Guy's throwing you have to
- 1:47:20Speaker 1: outland them if you're going to have. That style and,
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: he did and OF course i thought he jabbed a little.
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: Bit better, but overall to, your point he wasn't, you
- 1:47:31Speaker 1: know he wasn't, Hurting THEM and i do think and
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: it wasn't accumulation of. Punches either for why better be a.
- 1:47:39Speaker 1: Slow DOWN so i do agree with YOU that I
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: think i could meet you halfway. ON that i just
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: think that he finally answered the bell sometimes rather Than
- 1:47:50Speaker 1: just i'm not going to, do anything, you know because
- 1:47:53Speaker 1: the way he did it the last three rounds or
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: whatever throughout the last floor in the first fight was, like,
- 1:47:58Speaker 1: wow dude and you could tell it was. BUGGING him,
- 1:48:00Speaker 1: i mean he talked about it all the time AND
- 1:48:03Speaker 1: and i didn't believe that he would throw, more punches to,
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: BE honest i. REALLY did i thought it was. Just
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: talk but he did throw, more punches he. Landed MORE
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: so i definitely give. Him credit like, you said the
- 1:48:15Speaker 1: chin that that's a good point because it's it's very.
- 1:48:18Speaker 1: Underrated chin, BUT yeah i mean it's only fair that
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: you know that better be of gets a, you know
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: gets another if he wants it to get his to
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: get his. Shot back he won the, first one lost the. Second,
- 1:48:34Speaker 1: one well, you know it's only fair to get him a.
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: Shot back but it is one of those things where
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: you're like some of us thought we didn't necessarily need
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: to see. The rematch and now it was a, good
- 1:48:49Speaker 1: fight but it wasn't a. Great fight, you know and
- 1:48:53Speaker 1: we saw Improvement, from beval but it still wasn't LIKE like,
- 1:48:58Speaker 1: I said i didn't HAVE have i didn't have it
- 1:49:01Speaker 1: seven to five. For PEOPLE if i had one, seventy
- 1:49:05Speaker 1: five it would be for for Better BE if i,
- 1:49:07Speaker 1: HAD it i had it about a, draw REALLY but
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: i do want, my. Scorecard HABIT if i have a,
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: seven five it is the better. Be of but overall
- 1:49:17Speaker 1: a very. Entertaining card it's too, bad that, you know
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: we lost that that heavyweight fight because that that was really.
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: Anticipating that so hopefully du bois maybe they'll go RIGHT,
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: to usk, MAYBE not i. Don't know, but overall just
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: talking about the card in general AND how i, don't
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: know it's it's a it's gonna be a weird thing because,
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: you know the last the, last year we've SEEN the us.
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: Get affected, right now some of that is our, own,
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: doings right some of. It's not some of, those fights
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: like this main event wasn't, Happening anyway so that's perfect for.
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: That type and by the time the heavyweight you know
- 1:50:10Speaker 1: here and even IN the uk to, an extent had
- 1:50:12Speaker 1: kind of run its course and we did need to
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: finally see that put all the damn. Belts together we got,
- 1:50:19Speaker 1: two guys they're. Both unbeaten make. The fight and so
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: that what he did with the, HEAVYWEIGHT division i think
- 1:50:26Speaker 1: that was, ideal too because it actually had the fights
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: going and it's been a big brown, robin almost you
- 1:50:32Speaker 1: KNOW what. I mean so he's done a great. Job
- 1:50:34Speaker 1: there now when you move Into the, canalo thing three
- 1:50:39Speaker 1: out of the four Fights, in sadi who are the
- 1:50:41Speaker 1: opponent's going? To be They, mentioned shiraz, you know for,
- 1:50:45Speaker 1: next year even before he won, a fight and that.
- 1:50:48Speaker 1: Can't happen if, it is that's. A JOKE but i
- 1:50:53Speaker 1: still LIKE the i. DON'T know i. JUST don't i
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: don't know how we're gonna grow the sport taking it
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: away FROM the US. And uk and if you're gonna take,
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: IT away i do like. Their idea he's already said
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: For both canelo fights that they're gonna be in prime
- 1:51:12Speaker 1: time here, time wise so. That's smart but, you know
- 1:51:19Speaker 1: they put all that the we talked, about this they
- 1:51:21Speaker 1: put all that money into the commercials and, those man
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: some of those commercials have. Been phenomenal you can pretty
- 1:51:27Speaker 1: much say they're gonna be quality. Every time but if
- 1:51:31Speaker 1: nobody's seeing it Besides, on twitter it. Really doesn't it's
- 1:51:35Speaker 1: just a waste. Of money so it's kind, of like,
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: you know THAT'S what i really liked About that august
- 1:51:41Speaker 1: card is the fact that you had it on his
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: own but you hold it also had IT On espn
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: plus and you had It. On amazon and if you
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: don't want to do like, a time here's. The Thing
- 1:51:53Speaker 1: saudi arabia, bought, golf right they get they invested enough
- 1:51:59Speaker 1: to where they own. It now now may that probably
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: would have happened at some, point anyway but they only
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: had a deal WITH. The, cw right they didn't have
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: a deal with all those. Other channels SO the pga
- 1:52:12Speaker 1: could have fought that off for a couple more years
- 1:52:14Speaker 1: because they at Least, had yeah you lose, some talent
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: but you also have the, main broadcasters NOT. THE cw
- 1:52:19Speaker 1: i remember THEIR first. Cw event they didn't even finish
- 1:52:23Speaker 1: the damn thing and they went to a different show
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: and it wasn't. Even over, it's like what the hell is?
- 1:52:27Speaker 1: This shit? You know so my thing IS and i
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: know golf is more popular, than boxing Especially when tiger,
- 1:52:34Speaker 1: was going but like like On a sunday afternoon on a.
- 1:52:37Speaker 1: Big tournament a lot of people are, gonna watch, you
- 1:52:38Speaker 1: know but what if. You're not if you don't want
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: to do a, time, buy right then do it like on.
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: A network then do a time by which they're. Still
- 1:52:50Speaker 1: available if you look at the guide and see what's
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: going on On a Saturday or sunday afternoon, or whatever
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: it's still available to be able to, do that or
- 1:53:00Speaker 1: or do it do a time Buy with amazon or something,
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: like that you KNOW what, i mean some sort of advertising.
- 1:53:06Speaker 1: That WAY and I just I think i keep getting,
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: this PUSHBACK and i think people are looking at it
- 1:53:12Speaker 1: from a a hater point, of view or well this
- 1:53:17Speaker 1: or that. Or that, you know it's always got to
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: be this promotion of that. Platform whatever it's just the,
- 1:53:22Speaker 1: point is it's like we keep hearing that it's the
- 1:53:27Speaker 1: growth that's gonna happen off. Of it but how do
- 1:53:30Speaker 1: you leave your key markets And grow That's where That's where.
- 1:53:35Speaker 3: I'm lost, oh yeah and that's where there's, no strategy
- 1:53:37Speaker 3: right especially WITH. The us he's just not he's just
- 1:53:41Speaker 3: not putting anything out there designed for DESIGN for. US sensibilities,
- 1:53:46Speaker 3: i agree he's done a really good job with, the
- 1:53:48Speaker 3: heavyweights and, you know the Lack of. American heavyweights That's
- 1:53:51Speaker 3: not Turkey al, sheik's problem THAT'S a us. General problem
- 1:53:54Speaker 3: so it's not as. Bad there and like, YOU said,
- 1:53:56Speaker 3: i mean nobody here was going to, NECESSARILY well i
- 1:54:00Speaker 3: know they Did have Vodstick and Better be HAVE. On
- 1:54:02Speaker 3: espn it did not do the rating you would have
- 1:54:05Speaker 3: hoped for.
- 1:54:05Speaker 1: A, fight like but they weren't going to do, that fight,
- 1:54:07Speaker 1: you know whether as political, or not because remember then
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: it became political because of the war and just all
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: sorts of stupid reasons why the fight, wasn't, HAPPENING right, i.
- 1:54:16Speaker 3: Agree it wasn't going. To happen nobody was going to do.
- 1:54:18Speaker 3: It here, so, yeah exactly you're not really hurt for
- 1:54:22Speaker 3: the hardcore boxing fans when you. Do that at least
- 1:54:24Speaker 3: this was a lower pay per. View, COST yes i
- 1:54:27Speaker 3: think we've been so far away. From it but, you
- 1:54:31Speaker 3: know like one thing that was positive about, this card
- 1:54:34Speaker 3: it wasn't marketed that WAY for. Us SENSIBILITIES but i
- 1:54:37Speaker 3: was even saying This When top rank was picking up
- 1:54:40Speaker 3: some Of the, british stuff, you know like like and
- 1:54:43Speaker 3: this was.
- 1:54:43Speaker 4: Even better like so, this card, you know the.
- 1:54:46Speaker 3: Only like kind of filler you had Was Just padley
- 1:54:50Speaker 3: Stevenson because padley had to come in as a, late
- 1:54:52Speaker 3: opponent and that was really nobody's. Particular fault they that
- 1:54:56Speaker 3: intentionally what. Was good So what i'm saying was good
- 1:55:00Speaker 3: EVEN though i started watching At eleven eastern IN. The
- 1:55:03Speaker 3: us but, you know it went by kind. OF quick
- 1:55:07Speaker 3: i didn't have to complain some others had because it
- 1:55:09Speaker 3: wasn't a bunch of garbage. Showcase fights, i'm like what
- 1:55:12Speaker 3: the FUCK am i? Watching here, You Know like, I'M
- 1:55:15Speaker 3: like i could go be doing. Something, else look and,
- 1:55:17Speaker 3: you know we're, completely hardcore, you know we comment on the.
- 1:55:20Speaker 4: Score and, like It and i'm just confessing it happens.
- 1:55:24Speaker 3: To me i'm a, human being, you know even though,
- 1:55:26Speaker 3: you know fanatic AND like i didn't have to deal
- 1:55:29Speaker 3: with That. This saturday, Like yes and, you know the
- 1:55:31Speaker 3: pacing got better as the card.
- 1:55:33Speaker 6: Went on once the main card, came up the pacing
- 1:55:36Speaker 6: was then the pacing started. Looking up it was better
- 1:55:40Speaker 6: than these. Usually Are and, i'm like, you Know like
- 1:55:43Speaker 6: i'm not feeling.
- 1:55:44Speaker 3: Like this is a long day Or like i'm wasting
- 1:55:47Speaker 3: time because it's like competitive. Odds matchups they're coming one
- 1:55:51Speaker 3: right after the other and then you didn't have to
- 1:55:55Speaker 3: stay up till three o'clock in the boarding, of.
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: These but you had enough time, TO go i have something,
- 1:56:00Speaker 1: to eat or go to the bathroom or, you know
- 1:56:02Speaker 1: it wasn't like you're. Rushing time, really, Well yeah i'm.
- 1:56:06Speaker 3: Just saying like there's some, potential there like, you KNOW like,
- 1:56:10Speaker 3: i mean even, for ratings if it was, marketed differently,
- 1:56:13Speaker 3: Like so, i'm like, you know even though it's, ALL unusual,
- 1:56:16Speaker 3: i mean if and if you really were real clear
- 1:56:18Speaker 3: about when each fight was going to start for people
- 1:56:21Speaker 3: that maybe did just want to focus in on, CERTAIN ones,
- 1:56:23Speaker 3: i mean there's some, potential there especially when you, are
- 1:56:26Speaker 3: streaming because you don't have to worry about like like
- 1:56:30Speaker 3: there's always there's always. Broadcast availability when, you're streaming, you
- 1:56:36Speaker 3: know you don't have to compete with something else or
- 1:56:38Speaker 3: what we're going to put on. That time you're, gonna
- 1:56:40Speaker 3: well you're going to compete with, other STUFF but i
- 1:56:42Speaker 3: mean you don't have to compete like BE on espn
- 1:56:45Speaker 3: or something.
- 1:56:45Speaker 1: Where an overtime game goes and that they're not going
- 1:56:48Speaker 1: to put.
- 1:56:48Speaker 3: On boxing That's what i'm talking, About exactly like you
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: don't have to deal with any of. That CRAPPITY so
- 1:56:53Speaker 3: i see some, potential there like like if it just
- 1:56:55Speaker 3: flipped to where it started getting marketed IN, the us and,
- 1:56:59Speaker 3: you know maybe that maybe the main events were starting like,
- 1:57:02Speaker 3: you know, seven o'clock eight o'clock.
- 1:57:04Speaker 4: At, night yeah after you had, the day but it
- 1:57:07Speaker 4: was all.
- 1:57:07Speaker 3: Competitive, matchups yeah, might not, Might not might not be
- 1:57:11Speaker 3: bad because, you know you go back to the seventies,
- 1:57:13Speaker 3: And eighties Saturday afternoon sunday afternoon boxing did extremely well IN.
- 1:57:18Speaker 3: The us you're talking about a, different era but but.
- 1:57:21Speaker 3: It did so it's it's not it's it's not, like impossible.
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: And we're USED to uk during, THE day us. At night,
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: you know in the last five to, eight years that's,
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: increased too where, you're, like hey that was a, GOOD
- 1:57:34Speaker 1: card i got a, little gap and now our, card starts, you.
- 1:57:37Speaker 3: Know right my argument is what? What's obsolete and it just,
- 1:57:41Speaker 3: shows THAT like i can change in that, way too
- 1:57:44Speaker 3: because we had this for a.
- 1:57:45Speaker 4: Long TIME but i have been saying this.
- 1:57:47Speaker 3: For years what's obsolete IS This us saturday night idea
- 1:57:51Speaker 3: that you gotta run these things late IN the us
- 1:57:56Speaker 3: Late and saturday Night one saturday night's the least night
- 1:57:59Speaker 3: watch NIGHT. Of tv yeah, it is so you know
- 1:58:03Speaker 3: that's just. A fact so you're, always boxing, you're subjecting
- 1:58:06Speaker 3: and then you're going to hours In The east coast
- 1:58:09Speaker 3: where nobody's watching compared, to normal like.
- 1:58:14Speaker 1: And if you don't have a quality lead in then it.
- 1:58:17Speaker 1: Falls apart, you know can anyway if you did a
- 1:58:20Speaker 1: tripleheader or.
- 1:58:21Speaker 3: Something right and it's, live sports so, even though like
- 1:58:24Speaker 3: we're saying, in boxing you cannot. Find out but but
- 1:58:26Speaker 3: the gambling companies want people watching. IT live, i mean,
- 1:58:29Speaker 3: You Know draft kings is all. Over now they're starting
- 1:58:32Speaker 3: to make their first. Big profits but, that matters like,
- 1:58:35Speaker 3: you know they're, a big, big sponsor so like Like To,
- 1:58:39Speaker 3: draft kings what matters is people watching, it live like they,
- 1:58:43Speaker 3: you know they want it for, the bedding, you know
- 1:58:44Speaker 3: they want you like, you know if you're if your
- 1:58:47Speaker 3: main events starting one thirty in, the morning like that's
- 1:58:51Speaker 3: not Great, For, DraftKings, like hey, you know we could
- 1:58:53Speaker 3: have a lot more people, watching, live right you know
- 1:58:57Speaker 3: if this fight was starting at nine o'clock On the east,
- 1:59:00Speaker 3: you know you know sometime where it's not too Early For.
- 1:59:03Speaker 3: West coast there's your BALANCE but i know that time
- 1:59:06Speaker 3: is not starting at one o'clock in the morning In
- 1:59:08Speaker 3: the east or eleven. Thirty pm so, you know that
- 1:59:12Speaker 3: to me is. What's obsolete and you know they did
- 1:59:14Speaker 3: that for, thirty years but but. THAT'S obsolete i Mean
- 1:59:17Speaker 3: that saturday night stuff with the late In. THE east
- 1:59:19Speaker 3: i mean BECAUSE then ufc did, It too but it's
- 1:59:21Speaker 3: not there's. No lot there's not there's. No lot there's
- 1:59:24Speaker 3: actually no logic. To it there.
- 1:59:25Speaker 1: Really, isn't yeah and we've even seen some of those late.
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: Night shows even if, it had it had to have
- 1:59:33Speaker 1: a really big lead in otherwise of its just an
- 1:59:36Speaker 1: average LEADING for espn. Or whatever the first fight will
- 1:59:39Speaker 1: get the biggest boost and then then it will the
- 1:59:42Speaker 1: ratings will.
- 1:59:43Speaker 3: Go down, You're, right well there. Was one there was.
- 1:59:45Speaker 3: One logic let me say because IN the us this
- 1:59:48Speaker 3: is the one they didn't. Talk about but this was
- 1:59:50Speaker 3: the real logic because IN, the us You, know vegas,
- 1:59:54Speaker 3: you know they were basically the Equivalent Of turkey Ala
- 1:59:56Speaker 3: chic vegas paying. Site fees she has outbid, them basically
- 2:00:03Speaker 3: you know where that money is. Not enough but when
- 2:00:05Speaker 3: they were doing the, site fees, you know if you
- 2:00:07Speaker 3: went Out. To vegas and this was before you had
- 2:00:10Speaker 3: also legalized sports betting almost everywhere like you. Have now
- 2:00:15Speaker 3: that's a good but even though they were focused on,
- 2:00:17Speaker 3: their casinos but still, you know, you know you couldn't
- 2:00:20Speaker 3: bet on, sports everywhere and like you can now what they,
- 2:00:25Speaker 3: wanted though, is this like, you Know and i've been
- 2:00:27Speaker 3: too many Fights in vegas where, this happened and that was.
- 2:00:30Speaker 3: WHAT'S good i could see how this work business wise for,
- 2:00:33Speaker 3: the casinos like In In west, coast time you know
- 2:00:38Speaker 3: there you were coming back out to the casino at
- 2:00:41Speaker 3: Like and i've con bested my, younger days it's small
- 2:00:49Speaker 3: advantage of that like. Everybody else and it. WAS packed
- 2:00:52Speaker 3: i mean like you, flowed in a mob flowed in
- 2:00:55Speaker 3: to watch. The fights you come out to the casino
- 2:00:58Speaker 3: at ten o'clock time and you're going all, you know
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: you're going all. Night there so, you know they they've got,
- 2:01:06Speaker 3: you know twelve thousand people flowing out into, you know after,
- 2:01:11Speaker 3: The fight like that was a big part of their
- 2:01:14Speaker 3: thinking where wanted people coming out into the casino where
- 2:01:18Speaker 3: they're going to be up, late anyway but then you
- 2:01:20Speaker 3: know they're coming out. Prime time, you know still we're
- 2:01:23Speaker 3: prime time, still going you know after. THE fight i
- 2:01:26Speaker 3: know that was a real big part of, their motivation
- 2:01:28Speaker 3: so they wanted but like like, that stuff, to me
- 2:01:30Speaker 3: it's more, obsolete now like it is a lot. Different
- 2:01:33Speaker 3: places let's, let's like because now you've got like fans
- 2:01:37Speaker 3: and promoters locked, in like, oh no we need to
- 2:01:39Speaker 3: do This late saturday, night thing and like, YOU know
- 2:01:42Speaker 3: espn even probably blew that top rank deal and or
- 2:01:45Speaker 3: vice Versas top rank BLOWING the espn deal with all
- 2:01:48Speaker 3: that kind of, you know fights Starting The east COAST
- 2:01:51Speaker 3: on espn at one o'clock in the morning. And stuff, you,
- 2:01:55Speaker 3: know yeah that that's. All obsolete so it's because of
- 2:02:00Speaker 3: the different. Time zone but that's the ONE thing i
- 2:02:02Speaker 3: like About the turkey, thing too not, the one but
- 2:02:05Speaker 3: one of the OTHER things i like is it maybe
- 2:02:07Speaker 3: is a little bit of an opening to force force
- 2:02:12Speaker 3: out of the habit of that Late night saturday night
- 2:02:15Speaker 3: you know, us thing which.
- 2:02:17Speaker 1: Is, obsolete yeah because even when they start the the
- 2:02:23Speaker 1: pay per views here at eight year time rather, than
- 2:02:27Speaker 1: nine that even makes, a difference, you know and you're kind, of,
- 2:02:31Speaker 1: like wow that's. Pretty good and even, you KNOW when
- 2:02:34Speaker 1: pbc had a network most of that stuff started at,
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: seven o'clock eight o'clock, year time you KNOW what. I
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: mean so that. Was different you Didn't have fox CARDS
- 2:02:43Speaker 1: or nbc cards going till eleven or twelve or, you
- 2:02:47Speaker 1: know one in the. Morning either, but, yeah yeah. You're
- 2:02:50Speaker 1: right it's a funky thing because for So long saturday
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: nights have been, the thing and obviously from a promoter
- 2:02:59Speaker 1: perspective as far as, selling tickets, you know afternoon shows
- 2:03:03Speaker 1: aren't going to do. As good wednesday nights aren't gonna do.
- 2:03:06Speaker 1: As good thursday nights aren't gonna. You know so It's
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: a it is a. Funky thing it's a really. Funny
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: thing but, then again there's times where it has nothing
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: to do with the, ticket sales and it could be
- 2:03:18Speaker 1: just a live gate or not a, live gate but like,
- 2:03:21Speaker 1: you said, a fee but not FROM, the mgm just
- 2:03:24Speaker 1: some small casino where it's like one hundred thousand people
- 2:03:28Speaker 1: and it looks like a half filled, all right that
- 2:03:31Speaker 1: doesn't get any, atmosphere either. You know, so yeah so
- 2:03:36Speaker 1: that They have on, one hand you can SAY what
- 2:03:40Speaker 1: i mentioned about the ticket sales, And whatnot but on the,
- 2:03:43Speaker 1: other hand many times you've seen them throw away the
- 2:03:47Speaker 1: gate and not give a shit about it and just
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: get that two hundred thousand dollars so they can go
- 2:03:51Speaker 1: to that and so they at least have a little bottom.
- 2:03:53Speaker 1: Line whatever, so, yeah no especially the late. LATE stuff
- 2:03:57Speaker 1: i mean it Does like i'm a. Night all but
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: overall On the east coast, with that, you know amount of,
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: population there there has been some really late ones and
- 2:04:10Speaker 1: it seemed like it kept getting later. And, later, Yeah
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: later so, you're right that is that, has improved and
- 2:04:18Speaker 1: it's just like the product, is there it just needs
- 2:04:22Speaker 1: to be shut. Seen more and, you know the last,
- 2:04:26Speaker 1: Few years i've gotten a lot of messages and talk
- 2:04:29Speaker 1: to people FROM the uk and how it Wasn't just
- 2:04:31Speaker 1: saudi at. The time it was, you know different parts
- 2:04:34Speaker 1: Of The, Middle east dubai and all That that i've
- 2:04:38Speaker 1: taken some of. Those fights that's kind of like their version,
- 2:04:41Speaker 1: of it taking some of those fights away FROM. The
- 2:04:44Speaker 1: uk and the fans were pretty just up the last couple.
- 2:04:46Speaker 1: Of years they've been pretty pissed off because they, come out,
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: you know and it's a. Great environment AND so i
- 2:04:52Speaker 1: saw that HAPPENING and i was a little. Bummed out
- 2:04:55Speaker 1: and then now you see it here and you're, like
- 2:04:57Speaker 1: okay like, OF course I just i don't think fans
- 2:05:02Speaker 1: understand like when, they, say well boxing's, moving, east dude, it's,
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: LIKE okay i, hear you but? Is that how is that? Happening?
- 2:05:10Speaker 1: Though like is that do you get away from? Your
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: core can't you grow and do both since you're not
- 2:05:19Speaker 1: worried about? MONEY anyway i just THINK it, I said
- 2:05:22Speaker 1: i bring Up time by only because it is, an
- 2:05:26Speaker 1: option but Also time By on amazon, or whatever. YOU
- 2:05:30Speaker 1: know I just i just think to have that that type, of,
- 2:05:36Speaker 1: card man it's anybody that sees it that's a boxing fan, is,
- 2:05:40Speaker 1: like wow this is better THAN any Ufc thing i've
- 2:05:43Speaker 1: seen because they're full, big fight. You KNOW so I
- 2:05:46Speaker 1: just I just i think he's doing. RIGHT on, i mean,
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: this is like, we said this about as good as
- 2:05:51Speaker 1: card as you're gonna. Get ever, IN fact i hate
- 2:05:54Speaker 1: to say it, like that but it might be the
- 2:05:56Speaker 1: best card that we'll ever, see again, You.
- 2:05:59Speaker 3: KNOW yeah i mean except we who would have thought
- 2:06:02Speaker 3: we would have. Gotten this it's, you know it's starting
- 2:06:05Speaker 3: to seem like Now the zone's, still involved but it's
- 2:06:09Speaker 3: starting to seem like a different version of what the
- 2:06:11Speaker 3: zone was doing a few, years ago not That the
- 2:06:13Speaker 3: zone was given us this kind, of matchups but kind
- 2:06:15Speaker 3: of like the over paying and then see if it.
- 2:06:18Speaker 3: Catches on that didn't work, for them. That crashed let's,
- 2:06:23Speaker 3: face it that crash for them a few. Years back
- 2:06:27Speaker 3: the matchups were nothing, like this but it was that
- 2:06:29Speaker 3: kind of. An attempt so it's kind of a different cast,
- 2:06:32Speaker 3: to characters but With the zone still involved to a
- 2:06:35Speaker 3: degree not and the fights not being just exclusive, to
- 2:06:41Speaker 3: them but them being the main, broadcast partner.
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: You know so and now they're bought into the zone
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: like that's.
- 2:06:48Speaker 3: Right, home yeah so is the overpay thing going to
- 2:06:52Speaker 3: work again or you know work, this time, didn't work
- 2:06:56Speaker 3: didn't work in, the past.
- 2:06:58Speaker 1: And this is like, beyond overpay. YOU know, I mean
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: i remember people complaining About uh Thurman and porter both
- 2:07:06Speaker 1: making a million dollars ON, the, cbs right and they're
- 2:07:10Speaker 1: saying this. ISN'T sustainable.
- 2:07:13Speaker 3: I haven't heard the CRIMES that usk making one Hundred
- 2:07:18Speaker 3: or fury making one hundred, four MILLION in usk making
- 2:07:20Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty, two million it's. Not sustainable how
- 2:07:23Speaker 3: dare they pay these guys? As much we, Haven't heard
- 2:07:26Speaker 3: we haven't heard that Directed.
- 2:07:28Speaker 1: Twenty meanwhile they're. Doing ratings we hadn't done it about fifteen, eighteen,
- 2:07:32Speaker 1: Years right and it.
- 2:07:33Speaker 3: Was yeah because that was what. WE needed, I mean
- 2:07:36Speaker 3: pbc had the right. Idea there it was Just as
- 2:07:39Speaker 3: i've said, many times the overall atmosphere and competition of
- 2:07:43Speaker 3: the sport was hard to keep DOING what. I what
- 2:07:46Speaker 3: i'm pretty SURE that i know they were trying. To,
- 2:07:49Speaker 3: do yeah you know when they were still on that
- 2:07:52Speaker 3: mode where they were trying to. Do, that yeah sure
- 2:07:53Speaker 3: you Didn't got Thurman and porter getting a real, good rate, You, know.
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: Yeah, you know it's like they took a stab, at
- 2:08:01Speaker 1: it and, it's like look at the look at what,
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: they did and also the potential to build on that
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: if it if it were, To happen and That's what,
- 2:08:12Speaker 1: I'm saying like it just to not, tap in whether
- 2:08:16Speaker 1: it's stream or broadcast. Or WHATEVER like i just don't
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: understand why they can't, get it even like that first Twenty,
- 2:08:24Speaker 1: nineteen uh they had that fall season commercial where they
- 2:08:30Speaker 1: had a bunch of good fights in a row and
- 2:08:33Speaker 1: that shit was. On NORMAL like i saw the commercial twenty.
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: Of times it. SPARKED interest i was getting text messages like,
- 2:08:40Speaker 1: oh okay so that ok SO if i Bought the
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: zone for, this amount, you KNOW and i don't know
- 2:08:46Speaker 1: it just h it is.
- 2:08:47Speaker 4: What it there Were the zone gift cards out In.
- 2:08:49Speaker 1: The yeah. THAT'S right i almost forgot, about.
- 2:08:53Speaker 3: That yep, but yeah well that that's ONE thing i was.
- 2:08:57Speaker 3: Gonna tide ONE thing i was just, gonna, ADD like
- 2:08:59Speaker 3: i don't know if they've got enough left in. The
- 2:09:01Speaker 3: tank no, pun Intended since tank's fighting, this weekend but,
- 2:09:05Speaker 3: you know with top ranks gonna at least for momentarily

- 2:09:44Speaker 3: been seeing more and, you know if you don't think,
- 2:09:47Speaker 3: that's fair start pushing for your favorite guy to get,

- 2:10:11Speaker 3: was more Popular in america than when his dad. Was
- 2:10:14Speaker 3: fighting he caught here a lot who he is, just
- 2:10:17Speaker 3: saying like whatever you think, About it like that's that's
- 2:10:23Speaker 3: actually like the type of thing unless you're going to
- 2:10:25Speaker 3: Be paying turkey aloy kind. Of numbers to put those.
- 2:10:27Speaker 3: Matchups together you have to get those guys who've, been seen,
- 2:10:32Speaker 3: you know somebody knows who. They are then you maybe
- 2:10:35Speaker 3: put a couple of guys in a good fight on
- 2:10:36Speaker 3: the undercard who you want to. Get seen but like
- 2:10:39Speaker 3: you got to get some guys that are going, to like,
- 2:10:41Speaker 3: like again whatever people think of, The fight I'M like
- 2:10:44Speaker 3: i saw that. Like yesterday, i'm like you, Know, What
- 2:10:47Speaker 3: Zoo joey Spencer. Regular amazon if it's it's gonna Be,
- 2:10:50Speaker 3: in australia but if they time it where.
- 2:10:53Speaker 4: It's on a decent. Time here.
- 2:10:56Speaker 3: You know That's. On amazon you know that's On regular
- 2:10:59Speaker 3: amazon for, you know, to speak if You, got amazon
- 2:11:02Speaker 3: you get or to make it where you get, it
- 2:11:03Speaker 3: anyway so some people could. See that, You, know fondora
- 2:11:08Speaker 3: you know he's gotten. Some exposure it's not the best card,
- 2:11:10Speaker 3: or matchup but it's still a guy who. Could Draw
- 2:11:13Speaker 3: like i'm, just saying like we're in. Desperate, straits yeah,
- 2:11:16Speaker 3: you know YOU and i are. Both FRUSTRATED like pbc
- 2:11:19Speaker 3: was In this, amazon deal but nothing was On regular
- 2:11:21Speaker 3: amazon except The one. ZOO fight i was very skeptical
- 2:11:25Speaker 3: and you, were, Saying well lespinosa saying he might. Do,
- 2:11:27Speaker 3: Some well i'm a. Little surprised. That's two like in,
- 2:11:31Speaker 3: other words we only. Got one we only got one all. Last,
- 2:11:34Speaker 3: year yeah now we're gonna apparently have two by like
- 2:11:38Speaker 3: the first Week. Of, april right if they if they
- 2:11:42Speaker 3: stay with that and and give more and get some
- 2:11:46Speaker 3: of maybe THE old pbc guys that are, still around
- 2:11:48Speaker 3: who've gotten some exposure and on, some events, you know
- 2:11:52Speaker 3: maybe maybe if they're if they still want to, Do
- 2:11:54Speaker 3: it Like if i'm, just, saying like if the heart's
- 2:11:55Speaker 3: still THERE, for pbc try to. Make it, you know
- 2:11:59Speaker 3: maybe you can start regaining a little bit of. Traction
- 2:12:02Speaker 3: here since top rank is Gonna be i'll predict it's
- 2:12:06Speaker 3: based somewhat on evidence and then somewhat are just. My
- 2:12:09Speaker 3: speculation i'm gonna guess top Rank will i'll have a
- 2:12:14Speaker 3: max stream thing here and there with some Fights, on
- 2:12:18Speaker 3: turner you know THAT group T. And T but i
- 2:12:22Speaker 3: don't think it'll be a. Big deal that's. MY prediction
- 2:12:25Speaker 3: i don't think they.
- 2:12:26Speaker 1: Do have extra money now WITHOUT. The, nba yeah and
- 2:12:30Speaker 1: they bought up those college. Football games they bought up something.
- 2:12:36Speaker 1: With tennis they bought up something, Else too, SO.
- 2:12:39Speaker 3: Yeah i don't know what they're push, will Be but
- 2:12:41Speaker 3: i'll predict that's where they're gonna. End up that's where
- 2:12:43Speaker 3: that's gonna. END up i could see, that coming which.
- 2:12:45Speaker 1: Is better than, the, Zone right.
- 2:12:48Speaker 4: And that's what people don't.
- 2:12:49Speaker 3: Get exactly like That's what i'll argue with people all
- 2:12:51Speaker 3: the time of like some people. Get it, you know
- 2:12:53Speaker 3: there are some people to get it like, we do
- 2:12:54Speaker 3: but some people just don't UNDERSTAND because i always have
- 2:12:57Speaker 3: to have this debate, with them like you just don't.
- 2:12:58Speaker 3: Get it nobody seeing this guy you're talking about on
- 2:13:02Speaker 3: his own IN.
- 2:13:02Speaker 1: The us If if jane little fight's a free fight
- 2:13:06Speaker 1: like he did a couple of times and it doesn't hit,
- 2:13:09Speaker 1: a million, YOU know i don't know What else i'll
- 2:13:13Speaker 1: tell you right, like that, you KNOW it's, I mean i.
- 2:13:17Speaker 1: Don't know but IN the a you wanted, it back, you,
- 2:13:20Speaker 1: know boxing they want him BACK on hbo where there.
- 2:13:22Speaker 3: You go That's what. I'M thinking I think i don't
- 2:13:25Speaker 3: think it'll be a, big PUSH but i, think, that
- 2:13:28Speaker 3: yeah they actually will probably promoted a bit like that
- 2:13:31Speaker 3: when they have the Ones. On mac we've got a
- 2:13:33Speaker 3: boxing tradition here and it's they'll probably use that as
- 2:13:37Speaker 3: a little bit of the hype. Of, THAT sure i
- 2:13:39Speaker 3: don't think it'll be A REAL like, I said i
- 2:13:40Speaker 3: don't think it'll be a really big deal probably with
- 2:13:44Speaker 3: a lot of. Real FREQUENCY but i think that's probably
- 2:13:47Speaker 3: where they'll, end up would be.
- 2:13:48Speaker 1: My guess and it would be ideal if they somehow
- 2:13:51Speaker 1: ended Up on AMAZON and Pbc and, top rank could,
- 2:13:56Speaker 1: you know coexist on. That platform but like, you said that's,
- 2:14:00Speaker 1: you know that's that's just, being hopeful.
- 2:14:02Speaker 3: You, know yeah at THIS point i agree with you
- 2:14:04Speaker 3: that would probably almost be better at, this point if
- 2:14:06Speaker 3: something like that would, BE better i THINK if i agree,
- 2:14:09Speaker 3: with you would. Be better i'm guessing On That turner max.
- 2:14:14Speaker 3: Type deal that's.
- 2:14:16Speaker 1: A good that's. A good i think that's A fair
- 2:14:20Speaker 1: i think that would put that beyond. A guess i
- 2:14:22Speaker 1: think you're right. About THAT that, i HOPE but I
- 2:14:25Speaker 1: think i think that's that. Makes sense that makes sense
- 2:14:27Speaker 1: because they do they have the, content too you know
- 2:14:31Speaker 1: that they can put on there that that's part of
- 2:14:33Speaker 1: all their fights that. They've done they can move that
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: OUT of espn plus and put it, on there so
- 2:14:38Speaker 1: that that's a commodity value. Right there maybe it's not
- 2:14:41Speaker 1: as much as it was five or ten years ago
- 2:14:44Speaker 1: because they are starting to tighten. Their strings, you Know
- 2:14:47Speaker 1: besides Netflix, and amazon everybody else is tightening their strings
- 2:14:50Speaker 1: majorly as we found Out. With paramount, so yeah that
- 2:14:54Speaker 1: would be, you know what would be ideal is if
- 2:14:58Speaker 1: they had a Spot a saudi sponsor in top RANK
- 2:15:02Speaker 1: on Pbc. On amazon now. You're talking now, you're cooking
- 2:15:07Speaker 1: because if you can make, you know some of those extra,
- 2:15:11Speaker 1: big fights like, you said if You put Gervonte and Stevenson,
- 2:15:15Speaker 1: On amazon i'm not even saying that's what.
- 2:15:18Speaker 3: We need but that's what we. Need, something yeah.
- 2:15:21Speaker 1: Straight up would. Be awesome but even just having it
- 2:15:23Speaker 1: on there and doing a twenty five dollars pay per
- 2:15:26Speaker 1: view right like that would? Do that would that would?
- 2:15:29Speaker 1: Do something?
- 2:15:30Speaker 3: So well one, POSITIVE thing I mean benavitez was at The, Fight,
- 2:15:33Speaker 3: SATURDAY yeah, i, mean yeah she did have him in so,
- 2:15:36Speaker 3: you know he talks About, al hayman so you know he,
- 2:15:39Speaker 3: he yeah he does.
- 2:15:41Speaker 1: Mention him so and he's done business, WITH him, i mean. Right,
- 2:15:47Speaker 1: car yeah and a couple of Fighters in august were on,
- 2:15:50Speaker 1: the card, you, know So and wilder was on two cards.
- 2:15:56Speaker 3: Yep ye, SO yeah i mean that is a good
- 2:15:59Speaker 3: thing About the Turkey how chic two probably be maybe
- 2:16:02Speaker 3: even for me as a. Boxing man the best, thing,
- 2:16:04Speaker 3: is like, you, know finally after all, these years we
- 2:16:08Speaker 3: can get back to like talking about like a matchup
- 2:16:12Speaker 3: like like, You know Benevitez fighting bivol or something, like
- 2:16:16Speaker 3: that like it. Can happen it used to, be, Like well,
- 2:16:19Speaker 3: i'd say it's just stop talking about that because we
- 2:16:21Speaker 3: know that's.
- 2:16:21Speaker 1: Not you that's, the, Point right there was.
- 2:16:24Speaker 3: No point there really.
- 2:16:25Speaker 4: Wasn't like it just wasn't. Gonna happen but.
- 2:16:27Speaker 3: You know like now you can kind of like talk
- 2:16:29Speaker 3: about all these different possible matchups and like. They might
- 2:16:33Speaker 3: they might happen as long as, you Know the saudi's
- 2:16:36Speaker 3: keep putting out.
- 2:16:37Speaker 1: This, money yeah AND and i remember back then getting
- 2:16:41Speaker 1: a bunch of which isn't that, long ago but getting
- 2:16:43Speaker 1: a bunch of, you know shit for talking about in.
- 2:16:46Speaker 1: House fights but, it's, like dude that's what, we. Had
- 2:16:49Speaker 1: right if you want to keep, your deal you gotta
- 2:16:52Speaker 1: you gotta make them make as many in house fights as.
- 2:16:54Speaker 1: You could so it's not that we favored in, house
- 2:16:57Speaker 1: fights it's just that's the scenario they. Were in so
- 2:17:00Speaker 1: if that's, your scenario you got to make your deal
- 2:17:02Speaker 1: and keep, your deal then frickin make your, fights then
- 2:17:05Speaker 1: and then you can figure out if you, build up,
- 2:17:07Speaker 1: you know enough, two guys then you put. Them together
- 2:17:10Speaker 1: and we've seen that, happen too so, but yeah that,
- 2:17:15Speaker 1: you know not not relying on the in house fight
- 2:17:18Speaker 1: in getting it to where, you know, top five top
- 2:17:21Speaker 1: ten fighters can, consistently fight and That's what sadi. Ultimately
- 2:17:25Speaker 1: brings you know that that does help the sport as
- 2:17:29Speaker 1: long as it, gets eyes, you, know, yeah exactly as
- 2:17:31Speaker 1: long as it, gets sides that's what's going to be. Worked.
- 2:17:33Speaker 1: On yep so, you know pretty much Everybody thinks tank is. Gonna,
- 2:17:41Speaker 1: WIN yeah, i mean his fights have a way of
- 2:17:49Speaker 1: playing out in. The ring uh not, every time but
- 2:17:54Speaker 1: a fair amount, of times depending on who. He's fighting,
- 2:17:57Speaker 1: of course he does take, his time we, know that
- 2:18:02Speaker 1: and he to the point where he'll, lose rounds. You
- 2:18:04Speaker 1: know so it's weird because come, fifth round all of,
- 2:18:08Speaker 1: a sudden the thoughts you had on the fight and then, you're,
- 2:18:13Speaker 1: Going wow Lamont's, doing okay, hang ON now i have
- 2:18:16Speaker 1: him down in, this fight and so all of a
- 2:18:18Speaker 1: sudden it kind of lures you in and then all of, a,
- 2:18:22Speaker 1: sudden bam, You know. Tank delivers and that's kind of
- 2:18:26Speaker 1: how his fights have played out in. Recent years whether
- 2:18:30Speaker 1: he was up at forty seven or thirty five, or
- 2:18:32Speaker 1: whatever a fair amount have. DONE that, i guess really
- 2:18:36Speaker 1: didn't have a whole lot. Of success but, You Know,
- 2:18:40Speaker 1: Lamont roach i've always said about this FIGHT that i
- 2:18:44Speaker 1: think people are, Downgrading him but in the, SAME breath
- 2:18:49Speaker 1: i would never call this A matchup i'm looking, forward
- 2:18:52Speaker 1: to like, oh man there's, you know, three different you
- 2:18:55Speaker 1: KNOW reasons i can give You why lamont. Could win
- 2:18:58Speaker 1: blah blah. Blah blah that's about the ONLY thing i
- 2:19:02Speaker 1: really think about this FIGHT is i Do Think lamont
- 2:19:04Speaker 1: roach is a better fighter than people are getting. Credit
- 2:19:08Speaker 1: for BUT that's i can understand because you're going against
- 2:19:15Speaker 1: a well known fighter who's a. Top FIGHTER so i
- 2:19:20Speaker 1: expect him to win some rounds and then that's. About it.
- 2:19:24Speaker 1: YOU know i think it'll play out very similar To
- 2:19:27Speaker 1: how tank fights, play out some of the UNDERCARD action.
- 2:19:32Speaker 1: I do we said it a couple of. Weeks ago
- 2:19:35Speaker 1: they're gonna need this undercard, to pop like to feel
- 2:19:40Speaker 1: good about the night at the end of, the night
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: Like if tank scores his highlight knockout and then, you're
- 2:19:46Speaker 1: like you, KNOW what i got like three pretty good.
- 2:19:49Speaker 1: Fights there, you know they're really gonna need this undercard,
- 2:19:52Speaker 1: to pop and, you know like a, Play, you martin,
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: you know. Play you we've seen him throw his, hands
- 2:20:00Speaker 1: more but we've seen him in stale. Fights, Too obviously
- 2:20:03Speaker 1: martin can really slow down, the pace you KNOW what.
- 2:20:07Speaker 1: I mean, good fighter both of them. Good fighters martin's
- 2:20:10Speaker 1: a good fighter and, all That BUT i'm i think it'll,
- 2:20:14Speaker 1: be COMPETITIVE but i am wondering how that style is gonna,
- 2:20:18Speaker 1: you know. Work out i'm pretty shaky on. That one
- 2:20:22Speaker 1: But the vellan's Whale of russell, to me THAT like
- 2:20:26Speaker 1: i wish that was like a main event On on prime.
- 2:20:30Speaker 3: Straight up that's the one. Good fight, to me that
- 2:20:34Speaker 3: is a. GOOD fight, i mean, YOU know I, Know tank,
- 2:20:37Speaker 3: tank's popular but. This card eighty bucks not not a
- 2:20:41Speaker 3: believer in. THIS one I, mean russell, You know valenzuale
- 2:20:45Speaker 3: is a really. Good, FIGHT yeah i mean that's a
- 2:20:47Speaker 3: main event type, Caliber fight so you. Get that, But
- 2:20:51Speaker 3: myself i've never really been Impressed.
- 2:20:52Speaker 4: By roach.
- 2:20:54Speaker 3: He's just never, you know it doesn't bring, much pop,
- 2:20:59Speaker 3: you know but he's just never really his, whole.
- 2:21:03Speaker 4: Career he's never impressed me.
- 2:21:05Speaker 3: That Much so i'm looking at, that, one like, YOU
- 2:21:08Speaker 3: know i, DON'T think i DON'T put i Don't think
- 2:21:11Speaker 3: roach is as Good As.
- 2:21:12Speaker 4: Frank martin, so.
- 2:21:14Speaker 3: No no it's, YOU know i think you made a.
- 2:21:17Speaker 3: Good point tank might be. At this, you know he's
- 2:21:20Speaker 3: got such A high. Ko percentage, you know maybe if
- 2:21:24Speaker 3: he can providing highlight, reel knockouts he's getting to be
- 2:21:28Speaker 3: one of those type fighters where people are going to
- 2:21:31Speaker 3: be somewhat content with that as long as it's a
- 2:21:33Speaker 3: HIGHLIGHT Reel ko and, you Know if tank does not have,
- 2:21:37Speaker 3: ANY slippage i would think that this is a fight
- 2:21:40Speaker 3: he's going to do that In because roach has got
- 2:21:42Speaker 3: nothing to hold him.
- 2:21:42Speaker 1: Off with, and yeah the power thing is.
- 2:21:45Speaker 4: A problem roach has never impressed me.
- 2:21:48Speaker 3: That much so you know that that You got mattaeas
- 2:21:53Speaker 3: who's always in, action fights pretty. Solid favorite you know he,
- 2:22:01Speaker 3: should win but he's at that he's coming off, a
- 2:22:04Speaker 3: loss and then he's at that advanced age for his
- 2:22:07Speaker 3: STYLE where i could SEE where pbc might get lucky
- 2:22:11Speaker 3: for lack of a, better word and get a good
- 2:22:13Speaker 3: fight out. Of that but THEN where i got to
- 2:22:15Speaker 3: go on, the DOWN and I think Pueo, and martine
- 2:22:19Speaker 3: that's a. DREADFUL matchup i Mean, BOTH arnold I mean
- 2:22:22Speaker 3: martin stinks to. Place out let's just. FACE IT yea
- 2:22:27Speaker 3: ceo is not an action fighter by. Any means he's
- 2:22:31Speaker 3: doesn't bring a lot of, pop BOXES and, i think
- 2:22:36Speaker 3: really that's probably a bad matchup for Like. Sandor martin
- 2:22:43Speaker 3: like then just even fighting another guy, like that it's
- 2:22:45Speaker 3: probably a bad matchup, for, Him, RIGHT like i don't
- 2:22:50Speaker 3: think this is going to be a real. GOOD fight
- 2:22:51Speaker 3: i think this is going to be an. AWFUL fight
- 2:22:53Speaker 3: i think you, KNOW this i Think isn't martin supposedly
- 2:22:58Speaker 3: some kind, of alphabet, you know, like dessert, you know
- 2:23:04Speaker 3: getting pushed for a shot because like that that the
- 2:23:09Speaker 3: promoters to me shouldn't even play. Ball with but it's
- 2:23:12Speaker 3: just that even outside, Of that Like what i'm saying, is,
- 2:23:15Speaker 3: like look you're a kind of on thin ice with
- 2:23:17Speaker 3: this card Undercard with tank Even, though russell, you know
- 2:23:22Speaker 3: And and valenzuale is, really good but that's just. One
- 2:23:26Speaker 3: fight like like, to me this to me is a matchmaking,
- 2:23:29Speaker 3: Head scratcher like why the hell would you put this
- 2:23:32Speaker 3: fight on a pay per?
- 2:23:33Speaker 1: View card it is FOR, The, wbc.
- 2:23:37Speaker 4: Yeah and THAT'S where i think.
- 2:23:38Speaker 3: It is and, like that, TO me i think it
- 2:23:40Speaker 3: is time for a rent on that because that's where that,
- 2:23:42Speaker 3: Comes in like you shouldn't be playing ball with. These
- 2:23:45Speaker 3: alphabets and this is all. The promoters i'm not JUST. Saying,
- 2:23:48Speaker 3: Pbc YEAH like i ALWAYS give pbc credit for ignoring
- 2:23:52Speaker 3: them for, a year but but then. THEY caved hbo
- 2:23:55Speaker 3: did that for a long, time too and. They caved
- 2:23:58Speaker 3: but this is part of the problem when you, cave like,
- 2:24:01Speaker 3: oh well this IS the, wbc mandatory we'll just put
- 2:24:05Speaker 3: this on. A card this is not what you want
- 2:24:08Speaker 3: to give your fans on an eighty dollars pay per,
- 2:24:10Speaker 3: view card because when everybody's falling, asleep already you know
- 2:24:14Speaker 3: early when this comes on and this is the kind
- 2:24:16Speaker 3: of thing this literally. Does happen and this is what
- 2:24:19Speaker 3: we talk about pacing and where there's a problem like
- 2:24:21Speaker 3: now this is a close, Odds fight i'll give, it
- 2:24:24Speaker 3: that but.
- 2:24:24Speaker 1: Oh, yeah yeah it's. It's close but this.
- 2:24:27Speaker 3: Is where match two things got to come in matchmaking
- 2:24:30Speaker 3: and ignoring, the alphabets like you, can't say, oh WELL
- 2:24:33Speaker 3: the wbc, is saying we gotta have Stand, and, martine
- 2:24:36Speaker 3: look you gotta think of your. FAN base, i mean
- 2:24:38Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna stick, you know this is the
- 2:24:40Speaker 3: one you. STICK on i don't care if THERE'S a wbc.
- 2:24:42Speaker 3: Belt involved this is the one you put on YouTube at.
- 2:24:45Speaker 1: Five, o'clock, sure yeah.
- 2:24:47Speaker 3: Hey hardcore you want to watch this for free on
- 2:24:50Speaker 3: YouTube at. Five o'clock we gotta then go to town
- 2:24:53Speaker 3: with your alphabet. DoD sets we GOT a wbc bad
- 2:24:57Speaker 3: dated title. Fight here you're gonna get it for free
- 2:24:59Speaker 3: on you to do something, Like that but putting this
- 2:25:03Speaker 3: on your main pay per, VIEW card i mean you're
- 2:25:06Speaker 3: gonna have people frustrated and going to sleep right off.
- 2:25:09Speaker 3: THE bat i mean THIS is i feel almost certain
- 2:25:11Speaker 3: this is gonna be a.
- 2:25:12Speaker 1: TERRIBLE fight i mean play you would really have to
- 2:25:17Speaker 1: throw a pharao amount. Of combinations and like, you SAID
- 2:25:24Speaker 1: and i said, it too IT'S a I mean i'm
- 2:25:26Speaker 1: looking at. The odds it. Is tight it's, On, paper
- 2:25:30Speaker 1: yeah it is a. Good matchup it's a it's a
- 2:25:33Speaker 1: worthy matchup for the weight class and all that taking
- 2:25:36Speaker 1: away all the belt stuff minus. One thirty, BUT yeah
- 2:25:41Speaker 1: i mean it has that lean in one way or.
- 2:25:46Speaker 1: The other you're definitely leaning towards it could really and
- 2:25:50Speaker 1: then you're looking at twelve rounds of, it too not
- 2:25:53Speaker 1: even ten rounds.
- 2:25:54Speaker 3: Of it, YOU know i think it'll be a really.
- 2:25:55Speaker 3: Bad FIGHT but i think it's a BAD like i
- 2:25:58Speaker 3: think facing another great boxer like that who's not that
- 2:26:02Speaker 3: aggressive but who does have a little better offense than
- 2:26:05Speaker 3: him is a bad Matchup. For, martin, yeah yeah LIKE
- 2:26:09Speaker 3: so i think it'll. BE right i think it'll. BE
- 2:26:12Speaker 3: exactly i think it'll be, A STINKER but i think
- 2:26:15Speaker 3: you're going to have like play throwing two decent punches
- 2:26:19Speaker 3: for Every one. Martin, throw yeah a low number, that
- 2:26:22Speaker 3: is and getting a. Solid DECISION LIKE i I don't
- 2:26:27Speaker 3: i hate the. STYLE matchup i wouldn't put it on
- 2:26:30Speaker 3: a pay per, view CARD but i do think there's
- 2:26:32Speaker 3: some value to me in playo in the bedding at.
- 2:26:36Speaker 1: That.
- 2:26:36Speaker 3: Place, Yeah yeah i'm gonna throw that one, out, there,
- 2:26:39Speaker 3: LIKE yeah i don't want to watch to fight, STYLE
- 2:26:42Speaker 3: wise I think i'm gonna put a little buddy on minus.
- 2:26:46Speaker 3: One twenty, I'M like i think that's a little bit
- 2:26:48Speaker 3: of a value for.
- 2:26:49Speaker 1: Me, THERE yeah, I, agree yeah that. That's THAT that's
- 2:26:53Speaker 1: i THINK it's i think we've kind of talked. About
- 2:26:55Speaker 1: that you, do have.
- 2:26:57Speaker 3: You, Do have.
- 2:26:59Speaker 1: You'll It is taya is on. The undercard that's a
- 2:27:03Speaker 1: mismatch at. This, point yeah it's. A showcase it's.
- 2:27:07Speaker 3: A SHOWCASE and i like tas a TON so i,
- 2:27:11Speaker 3: WOULD go i figure it's going to be a really,
- 2:27:13Speaker 3: bad ODDS but I think taya should get A k
- 2:27:16Speaker 3: o on.
- 2:27:16Speaker 1: THAT one i think.
- 2:27:18Speaker 3: SO too i, don't like, YOU know i don't. Like
- 2:27:22Speaker 3: THAT just i just don't Like that tayas is ready
- 2:27:24Speaker 3: for even more than that at, this point Even though
- 2:27:27Speaker 3: williams is, the name he's got. Nothing left you tried
- 2:27:32Speaker 3: hard against, the DAMIS but I just I don't i.
- 2:27:37Speaker 1: Don't, KNOW yeah i wasn't kind of hit. Or, miss
- 2:27:40Speaker 1: yeah and he probably is due for, a miss. You.
- 2:27:43Speaker 3: KNOW yeah i think he's too too advanced of, an
- 2:27:46Speaker 3: age too. MUCH punishment, I mean i think speaking of
- 2:27:50Speaker 3: because he's on the. Car TOO and i hate seeing
- 2:27:52Speaker 3: IT because, i thought, to me that was the fight of.
- 2:27:54Speaker 3: THAT year i DO think i Think the williams. Had
- 2:27:59Speaker 3: heard they it all out of each other in. That fight,
- 2:28:01Speaker 3: to me that was fight of, that year Was. On
- 2:28:04Speaker 3: fox and they both got. NOTHING left I mean i
- 2:28:08Speaker 3: heard he's a, slight favorite but you know he's got.
- 2:28:12Speaker 3: NOTHING left i mean he's on the YouTube part or,
- 2:28:15Speaker 3: you know the free, you Know free. Amazon whatever. YOU
- 2:28:20Speaker 3: know i wouldn't feel comfortable betting. On him.
- 2:28:24Speaker 4: That's LIKE what. Pbc does there's pros and cons.
- 2:28:26Speaker 3: To that, You know we've always said THAT about pbc and,
- 2:28:29Speaker 3: you Know With, al hayman if you want. To fight
- 2:28:31Speaker 3: he's gonna let, you fight like, You know so there's
- 2:28:34Speaker 3: a freedom argument there for. The fighters, that's, good like,
- 2:28:38Speaker 3: you know you want to, keep fighting you're going to get,
- 2:28:41Speaker 3: a fight like he's gonna stick with you to give you.
- 2:28:43Speaker 3: A fight but the re tread after, A, while yeah
- 2:28:46Speaker 3: the re tread when you guys, are shot you get
- 2:28:48Speaker 3: a little squeamish where, YOU'RE.
- 2:28:49Speaker 4: Like i don't KNOW if i want to see this guy.
- 2:28:51Speaker 3: FIGHTING anymore, i, mean yes And and heard and You
- 2:28:55Speaker 3: know williams at this point are in that category, for Me.
- 2:28:58Speaker 4: Especially.
- 2:28:58Speaker 1: Heard yeah and then if he does, do good, you're like,
- 2:29:00Speaker 1: oh boy, you know and here, we go he's gonna
- 2:29:03Speaker 1: get really hurt because, once again it is it is
- 2:29:06Speaker 1: a it's a it's exactly the same almost one thirty
- 2:29:10Speaker 1: minus one Thirty to mius one oh two in the
- 2:29:12Speaker 1: fight With The. Johann gonzalez so but it's, it's, LIKE
- 2:29:18Speaker 1: yeah i, DON'T know i.
- 2:29:20Speaker 3: Don't know i'm s greemish about those two guys. Still,
- 2:29:22Speaker 3: Fighting yeah so there's there's some things about THIS card
- 2:29:26Speaker 3: i Really as, i'm saying but it's just got to
- 2:29:29Speaker 3: say IT that i. DON'T like, I mean mattayas has
- 2:29:31Speaker 3: always got a chance to be in a big, action
- 2:29:33Speaker 3: fight so that, could happen, you know especially at, His
- 2:29:37Speaker 3: age he's going to continue to, be vulnerable but he always,
- 2:29:40Speaker 3: brings it so, you know that could. BE entertaining i Do,
- 2:29:43Speaker 3: like russell, YOU know i Do like Russell.
- 2:29:48Speaker 5: And.
- 2:29:48Speaker 3: Valance, yeah yeah that's a. Tough pot how do you?
- 2:29:50Speaker 1: See that that's a really tough one because, YOU know
- 2:29:53Speaker 1: i think, a year year and a half AGO what
- 2:29:55Speaker 1: I Went, Gary russell but now, IT'S like i, don't know,
- 2:30:01Speaker 1: You know velanzuela looked a little. Bit better he's been
- 2:30:03Speaker 1: a little bit. More active, of course is, you know
- 2:30:06Speaker 1: he gotta, you know this is this is LIKE a
- 2:30:11Speaker 1: i guess you could kind of say the style matchup,
- 2:30:17Speaker 1: is similar but you know he's a full on one,
- 2:30:20Speaker 1: forty Pounder whereas pitbull clearly wasn't. YOU know I just
- 2:30:28Speaker 1: i think this one's gonna this is gonna be the
- 2:30:30Speaker 1: fight of.
- 2:30:30Speaker 3: The night it's gonna be the fight of. THE night
- 2:30:32Speaker 3: i think this will be a really. GOOD fight i
- 2:30:34Speaker 3: like both of these guys. A lot that's what makes
- 2:30:36Speaker 3: it hard for me. To PICK and i still think,
- 2:30:40Speaker 3: in essence both of them are still up and comers
- 2:30:43Speaker 3: at this point even haven't. Had set, yeah yeah and even,
- 2:30:47Speaker 3: being contenders. They're CONTENDERS but i still, THINK there i
- 2:30:49Speaker 3: still think there are two guys on the. Way up
- 2:30:51Speaker 3: that's what makes this. Really good this is not one
- 2:30:54Speaker 3: guy on the. Way down, to me this is two guys.
- 2:30:56Speaker 3: Still ascending in, MY opinion i like both guys. A
- 2:31:00Speaker 3: lot i'm SURPRISED when, I, said okay WHO am i
- 2:31:04Speaker 3: going to really go?
- 2:31:04Speaker 4: With here.
- 2:31:05Speaker 3: IT'S tight i agree with the odds have just, about
- 2:31:07Speaker 3: even but a little almost. Surprised, Myself Yeah i'm i'm
- 2:31:11Speaker 3: giving a slight Edge to russell and for me. It's
- 2:31:14Speaker 3: this and YOU know i was on record here saying
- 2:31:17Speaker 3: that WAS one i. Got right it's tough to pick.
- 2:31:19Speaker 3: UP sets i Did pick vowlens Well. OVER tank i
- 2:31:23Speaker 3: excused Me, over cruise but and, you know he clearly
- 2:31:28Speaker 3: won the fight and he. Was effective but WHAT what
- 2:31:31Speaker 3: i even with even though he, you know was a
- 2:31:34Speaker 3: significant underdog and he got. The upset so GREAT performance
- 2:31:38Speaker 3: i Think, for valenzuelado, to me when he's at, his
- 2:31:41Speaker 3: best like as Tough as, pitbull is, you know His,
- 2:31:46Speaker 3: power likens his power wasn't evident that night he was,
- 2:31:51Speaker 3: you know he was boxing him back, and OFF and
- 2:31:53Speaker 3: i don't think that is, his strength even though he got.
- 2:31:56Speaker 3: The WIN and i just saw if he could dropped
- 2:32:00Speaker 3: the power In on pittbull at all and, you know
- 2:32:03Speaker 3: just box like You Know, gary russell You Know. Gary
- 2:32:09Speaker 3: anchwine russell is more versatile than that and brings some
- 2:32:11Speaker 3: pretty good pop and he's not afraid to. Be aggressive
- 2:32:14Speaker 3: but he's got some VERSATILITY and i just think.
- 2:32:17Speaker 1: He's gonna keep doing. It, too.
- 2:32:19Speaker 3: YEAH exactly i just think like A boxing valensuhla, backing
- 2:32:25Speaker 3: off not getting, the leverage is not going to be Up.
- 2:32:28Speaker 3: Against russell and that's. Given me that's to my own
- 2:32:32Speaker 3: surprise a little BIT because I. Like valenzuela i'm given
- 2:32:35Speaker 3: a slight Edge To Gary anchoine russell for that reason
- 2:32:38Speaker 3: that like, you know we've seen, You know valenzuela against,
- 2:32:42Speaker 3: you know In that, colbert rematch, you know when, he
- 2:32:46Speaker 3: thought granted he was at, the end But still vargas
- 2:32:50Speaker 3: just a frightening ko like you. Know That and i'm
- 2:32:54Speaker 3: not saying that power is still, not there but like,
- 2:32:57Speaker 3: You know cruz is a smaller guy, than him even,
- 2:32:59Speaker 3: though aggressive like he couldn't set down and, you know,
- 2:33:03Speaker 3: REALLY yeah, i thought, you know he would be able
- 2:33:06Speaker 3: to do That. AGAINST cruise i did pick, the upset got,
- 2:33:09Speaker 3: it right but it was, a decision, you know and
- 2:33:12Speaker 3: that just troubles me a little bit that, you know
- 2:33:16Speaker 3: he felt he had to fight, that way like he
- 2:33:18Speaker 3: didn't have that faith in his, own power, you know
- 2:33:21Speaker 3: because he's got some real Power and i'm thinking that
- 2:33:23Speaker 3: that might carry Over against russell and be a problem
- 2:33:27Speaker 3: for Him because russell's not afraid to be aggressive and
- 2:33:29Speaker 3: you know if if, you know is going to be
- 2:33:33Speaker 3: backing off and not, you know just like we talked
- 2:33:35Speaker 3: About With callum smith where he got the instruction from
- 2:33:39Speaker 3: McGirt followed it like you can't keep getting backed off.
- 2:33:42Speaker 3: Like that and, those tall leverage power guys get that
- 2:33:46Speaker 3: power that they need to who are. Good punchers so,
- 2:33:50Speaker 3: You know i'm Afraid that valenswale is going to do
- 2:33:53Speaker 3: too much of that in.
- 2:33:53Speaker 5: This, one yeah and you know he he should be
- 2:33:57Speaker 5: okay at one forty, power wise, you assume, you know because,
- 2:34:01Speaker 5: he's tall, he's lanky but it definitely.
- 2:34:04Speaker 1: Wasn't there but, maybe that like, you said that was
- 2:34:08Speaker 1: the style he was fighting AND maybe i. Don't, know
- 2:34:12Speaker 1: yeah this counter punching when he's in the pocket. Is something,
- 2:34:17Speaker 1: you know when he's, doing that it, is like, Whoa
- 2:34:20Speaker 1: dude this dude's got. Some pop, you know he's. Very
- 2:34:22Speaker 1: Skillful but, you're right when he's boxing, like THAT and
- 2:34:25Speaker 1: i can just see him getting swarmed and smothered and
- 2:34:29Speaker 1: right he just gary just, brings it, you know and
- 2:34:33Speaker 1: he'll just. Keep coming and sometimes he gets way too
- 2:34:36Speaker 1: loose and he'll throw. Wide punches and That's where, I'm,
- 2:34:39Speaker 1: thinking okay well about, YOU know, i mean, you, Know.
- 2:34:44Speaker 3: RIGHT yeah, i mean, you're right he's he's been leaving.
- 2:34:46Speaker 3: HIMSELF open, i mean If valens will is not afraid
- 2:34:48Speaker 3: to come forward and, you know back rustle up some and,
- 2:34:52Speaker 3: get leverage, i mean he's got the power to take,
- 2:34:54Speaker 3: him out. You know but, you know just the way He,
- 2:34:57Speaker 3: Fought cruise i'm thinking within a Rest, Of russell I'M
- 2:35:01Speaker 3: just i just don't see him backing them off like
- 2:35:03Speaker 3: he like he. Needs, to yeah that being the difference,
- 2:35:07Speaker 3: for ME because i agree with the odds is a
- 2:35:09Speaker 3: very tough one.
- 2:35:09Speaker 1: To. Call, yeah yeah it's it's gonna, be interesting that's.
- 2:35:14Speaker 1: For sure and we'll see if any of these other fights,
- 2:35:17Speaker 1: pop off because like we said even a month ago
- 2:35:20Speaker 1: that they would really need these underguard fights to have
- 2:35:25Speaker 1: you in, a good really like spirited move going into the,
- 2:35:29Speaker 1: main event, you know and of course coming off the. Co,
- 2:35:32Speaker 1: feature sure but just the whole the whole. Run up,
- 2:35:37Speaker 1: you know if at least three out of the five
- 2:35:41Speaker 1: fights would really have to turn. Into, something obviously the
- 2:35:45Speaker 1: one that's closed, on paper that's gonna, have to, you
- 2:35:49Speaker 1: know massively overachieve to be a fairly fun fight. To
- 2:35:54Speaker 1: watch it would have to. Really OVERACHIEVE and i, definitely wouldn't,
- 2:35:59Speaker 1: you know put my money, that way because these guys
- 2:36:02Speaker 1: are old, enough fighters and they fought some, good fighters
- 2:36:04Speaker 1: and they, they're, like hey this IS what i. Can
- 2:36:07Speaker 1: do this Is what i'm, gonna do, You KNOW and
- 2:36:08Speaker 1: i don't, blame them, You know AND like, i said
- 2:36:10Speaker 1: it's a worthy fight at the. Weight class it's a.
- 2:36:13Speaker 1: Tight fight, but yeah stylistically, that style it. Could, be
- 2:36:18Speaker 1: yeah it could Be, really uh it could be a
- 2:36:20Speaker 1: long night because they both know how to just kind
- 2:36:24Speaker 1: of take the. Other way but you're right, about that.
- 2:36:27Speaker 3: And it's gonna.
- 2:36:27Speaker 4: Go twelve but that's the. Problem too alf of. That
- 2:36:29Speaker 4: stuff so, it's twelve so it schedule.
- 2:36:32Speaker 1: Ten to where it's not gonna be able to ramp
- 2:36:34Speaker 1: up a little bit in the, seventh day ninth if
- 2:36:36Speaker 1: it was only, tenth round, you, know yeah yeah THIS
- 2:36:39Speaker 1: actually i really wish this was a ten round or
- 2:36:41Speaker 1: now you put it, that way because, maybe maybe just
- 2:36:45Speaker 1: maybe there'd be a little burst near. The end, but
- 2:36:48Speaker 1: yeah now they're gonna have to. Make, it, yeah yeah
- 2:36:50Speaker 1: this it's it's probably gonna.
- 2:36:52Speaker 3: Be ugly yeah that that that even money. For me
- 2:36:57Speaker 3: that's gonna. BE ugly i mean that's gonna. Be yeah,
- 2:36:59Speaker 3: or no that's a that's. A bite it's, ten thousand
- 2:37:02Speaker 3: it's going to be ugly to, be yeah.
- 2:37:03Speaker 1: And it's it's just it's, just uh it's. Just reality
- 2:37:06Speaker 1: like we're not hacking the, fight itself because like, you
- 2:37:10Speaker 1: said when you look at, the odds, hey man it.
- 2:37:12Speaker 1: Is close it's. Very close, but yeah the style, match
- 2:37:15Speaker 1: up it's more likely it'll be a. Rough one so
- 2:37:19Speaker 1: NEXT week i want to uh discuss the the tournament
- 2:37:27Speaker 1: that THEY the wbc. Now announced did you hear anything.
- 2:37:30Speaker 3: ABOUT that i heard a little bit that they were.
- 2:37:33Speaker 3: TALKING about i don't take them, seriously though so, you,
- 2:37:36Speaker 3: know RIGHT but. I did i did see them talk
- 2:37:39Speaker 3: about that. A.
- 2:37:39Speaker 1: Bit yeah it, was like you have to be twenty six.
- 2:37:43Speaker 1: And under twenty six years. And under there's six and
- 2:37:50Speaker 1: eight round fights rather than eight and ten round fights
- 2:37:56Speaker 1: thirty something per. Weak class so this is it's actually
- 2:37:59Speaker 1: the opposite of what they. Were saying it's the prospect prospect,
- 2:38:04Speaker 1: to contender which, you, know hey maybe it'll, work out
- 2:38:07Speaker 1: but it's not anything like what was reported at all
- 2:38:12Speaker 1: when they were talking about the. Top FIFTEEN and i,
- 2:38:15Speaker 1: don't know. We'll see maybe they just gave up on
- 2:38:18Speaker 1: that idea and they're going with the prospect route and
- 2:38:23Speaker 1: this is how they're going to. DEVELOP prospect i, don't
- 2:38:26Speaker 1: know but that'll be something we can at. Least discuss
- 2:38:29Speaker 1: it's it's getting kind of later in the timeframe to
- 2:38:32Speaker 1: to bring up that because that's more of a rant or. Whatever. Opportunity,
- 2:38:39Speaker 1: yeah yeah it's a, little late especially On The east
- 2:38:41Speaker 1: coast to be getting diving, into that especially when they
- 2:38:45Speaker 1: just popped it out like is this the same tournament
- 2:38:48Speaker 1: or is this A different which tournament? Is this? You know, but,
- 2:38:53Speaker 1: yeah anyway any other items that you'd like to.
- 2:38:55Speaker 3: DISCUSS it i just want To say i'm interested because
- 2:38:59Speaker 3: they've been seen and we really. Need it WE need
- 2:39:02Speaker 3: pbc to do it just FOR the us sensibilities to get.
- 2:39:05Speaker 3: Some eyeballs just was yesterday Seeing That spencer zoo. Fight
- 2:39:09Speaker 3: announced i'm interested in it FOR the, us sensibilities getting
- 2:39:13Speaker 3: some viewers part, and uh you know a lot of
- 2:39:17Speaker 3: people like To. Knock spencer but ONE thing i think
- 2:39:20Speaker 3: you want to look At that. Rainos fight even though
- 2:39:22Speaker 3: he got, hurt early he. WAS dominated i think people forget.
- 2:39:25Speaker 3: Though too the fight got stopped when he was he
- 2:39:29Speaker 3: was throwing.
- 2:39:29Speaker 4: BOMBS back i don't.
- 2:39:32Speaker 3: Mean he was, coming BACK but i mean didn't quit
- 2:39:35Speaker 3: against the. Tough opponent just say that because, You know
- 2:39:38Speaker 3: i've Said about, spencer before having seen a LOT of,
- 2:39:41Speaker 3: pbc cards it seemed like he went as far as
- 2:39:43Speaker 3: he could be trained by. HIS father i had heard
- 2:39:46Speaker 3: talk that he was doing some. Things elsewhere but like,
- 2:39:50Speaker 3: you know if he's just going to go into this
- 2:39:51Speaker 3: big fight and it's going to be his dad training
- 2:39:53Speaker 3: him in the, same, deal yeah it's gonna be hard to,
- 2:39:57Speaker 3: you know he's going Over, to australia gonna be hard
- 2:40:00Speaker 3: for him to turn all those. Things around but, you
- 2:40:02Speaker 3: know if he's got if he's got somebody else in there.
- 2:40:05Speaker 3: With him, you know he showed he wasn't Quitting, against
- 2:40:09Speaker 3: Ramos and zoo's coming off violently getting.
- 2:40:13Speaker 1: Beat, here, yeah yeah you don't know where his, head's
- 2:40:15Speaker 1: at right right.
- 2:40:17Speaker 3: Like like it COULD be i could see a scenario
- 2:40:20Speaker 3: where as a headliner On Regular, amazon prime this could
- 2:40:26Speaker 3: work OUT. For pbc, mm hm, you know especially maybe
- 2:40:30Speaker 3: back it up with some good undercard of maybe some
- 2:40:33Speaker 3: people you want to show and some interesting matchups at
- 2:40:36Speaker 3: least or something. Like that but at least it's the
- 2:40:38Speaker 3: second at least it's a second, free one so, to
- 2:40:41Speaker 3: speak announce for the YEAR where i was losing all hope.
- 2:40:43Speaker 1: For that, so, yeah yeah. We'll see, All right thanks
- 2:40:48Speaker 1: a lot for stopping staying late. And whatnot appreciate it,
- 2:40:51Speaker 1: as always.
- 2:40:52Speaker 4: Have a good week and enjoy the fights on, the, weekend.

- 2:44:28Speaker 1: DRAW and i heard that it's not a that it
- 2:44:31Speaker 1: wasn't a, good draw let's put it. That way, but
- 2:44:34Speaker 1: Yeah junto nakatsani doing. His thing don't want to, forget
- 2:44:39Speaker 1: that because that dude's a really, Fun fighter AND like,

- 2:46:24Speaker 1: he was commenting. On it kind of like having a
- 2:46:27Speaker 1: new foreman tournament and, YOU know, I mean Parker and
- 2:46:32Speaker 1: kabel seems like a good place. To go maybe they

- 2:47:12Speaker 1: moving i think that's not, gonna happen but it seems like.
- 2:47:18Speaker 1: YOU'RE right i think all he is Right about JUNTO
- 2:47:22Speaker 1: and bam wanting to stay at, that division and, If
- 2:47:27Speaker 1: anything junto should go up to one twenty two just
- 2:47:30Speaker 1: BECAUSE he i think you'll hold the weight, Better Personally
- 2:47:35Speaker 1: but Nashida, and nakatani, you know that would be that would.
- 2:47:42Speaker 1: Be lineal, so yeah that works. For me that definitely works.
- 2:47:47Speaker 1: FOR me i think that would that would do. The
- 2:47:50Speaker 1: trick and then maybe they CLOSE because I just i.
- 2:47:56Speaker 1: Don't know it's like which one DO you i kind
- 2:48:00Speaker 1: of want TO see i, don't know because then YOU
- 2:48:05Speaker 1: have bam going to one eighteen and then one. TWENTY
- 2:48:08Speaker 1: two i don't think that's.
- 2:48:10Speaker 3: Gonna happen.
- 2:48:11Speaker 1: Just realistically i'm not saying. He's dunking i'm just, saying
- 2:48:15Speaker 1: realistically that ain't. Gonna happen so That's why, i'm saying, all, right,
- 2:48:19Speaker 1: well No na katani could just beat him and. GO up,
- 2:48:22Speaker 1: i GUESS but I would i. DON'T know i remember
- 2:48:27Speaker 1: HIM saying i want you to, do MORE and i mean,
- 2:48:30Speaker 1: him anyway Saying to nakatani do more at one eighteen. Or,
- 2:48:34Speaker 1: whatever well if he gets the linear the, next fight,
- 2:48:38Speaker 1: you know then. Why not, but yeah if he if
- 2:48:41Speaker 1: he Took on picasso AND then mj and then the
- 2:48:45Speaker 1: Winner Of, bam KNAKATANI that, i mean that would. Be
- 2:48:48Speaker 1: PHENOMENAL but I just i. DON'T know i. Don't know.
- 2:48:55Speaker 1: Gfunk boxing this might come as just shocked to some,
- 2:48:59Speaker 1: of you but boxes get hit all, the time all. Of,
- 2:49:02Speaker 1: them yes your favorite boxer. GETS hit i can't believe
- 2:49:06Speaker 1: you call yourself a boxing fan and say stupid shit
- 2:49:08Speaker 1: like he was. Getting hit look at. His face it's,
- 2:49:11Speaker 1: a fight not, a yeah ballet. Of reality. YEAH that
- 2:49:16Speaker 1: i saw multiple people talking, about this and they were,
- 2:49:20Speaker 1: talking about, You know crawford did Better against madrauma because
- 2:49:27Speaker 1: you know how they looked like their faces and stuff,
- 2:49:30Speaker 1: like that and that's fair to. An extent but this
- 2:49:37Speaker 1: is actually this is The Tweet. Kevin cunningham someone sent me.
- 2:49:40Speaker 1: THIS here I thought ourtis took over the second half
- 2:49:43Speaker 1: of the Fight. Against madrumov he earned a hard fought impress.
- 2:49:47Speaker 1: Of victory but some people are saying he did Better,
- 2:49:50Speaker 1: than crawford and he said he AGREES with Iq that
- 2:49:55Speaker 1: urtees got hit a lot More than bud and they're
- 2:49:59Speaker 1: going off faces and that. Is fair, in fact, you
- 2:50:03Speaker 1: know copy boxesn't live, or die right, Of Course but
- 2:50:09Speaker 1: madramov only was able to land. Fourteenth fourteen it was
- 2:50:13Speaker 1: cut off eighty four, overall punches obviously a really, slow
- 2:50:19Speaker 1: Fight whereas madrumov landed one hundred and. Twenty seven so
- 2:50:24Speaker 1: eighty four one hundred and, twenty seven, you know that's
- 2:50:27Speaker 1: that's over. Forty, more now the flip side, of that
- 2:50:32Speaker 1: obviously different styles of fights and all, That was crawford
- 2:50:38Speaker 1: only landed ninety five Punches, on Madramov and ortiz landed
- 2:50:45Speaker 1: one hundred and, Sixty six so you know you got
- 2:50:51Speaker 1: to at least point that. Out too ninety five, one hundred,
- 2:50:55Speaker 1: you know that's seventy more punches he landed. As WELL
- 2:51:00Speaker 1: so i thought both fights were, very competitive close one
- 2:51:07Speaker 1: was funner. To, WATCH obviously i Did think crawford did
- 2:51:10Speaker 1: enough to win. That fight some people thought he was a. Little,
- 2:51:13Speaker 1: closer well let me let me reiterate that it, was
- 2:51:18Speaker 1: close but you, know styles they, make fights as, we
- 2:51:23Speaker 1: know and blah. Blah blah so here is something though that,
- 2:51:30Speaker 1: YOU know I mentioned madramov saying he, was sick and,
- 2:51:37Speaker 1: you know he basically was saying that a doctor told
- 2:51:39Speaker 1: me not to, actually FIGHT and i shouldn't. HAVE fought
- 2:51:43Speaker 1: i should. Have listened but it was a. BIG fight
- 2:51:45Speaker 1: i didn't want to lose, the FIGHT which i. Respect
- 2:51:49Speaker 1: too but he says two, weeks ago this is, unboxing
- 2:51:54Speaker 1: news plus two, weeks ago we went to. The doctor
- 2:51:57Speaker 1: DOCTOR says i was sick and wasn't ready for the Fight.
- 2:51:59Speaker 1: With virgil we don't want to cancel a fight because
- 2:52:02Speaker 1: it was a. BIG card i work. TWELVE rounds i
- 2:52:06Speaker 1: work twelve. Rounds sick maybe in, THE rematch i come back.
- 2:52:09Speaker 1: Again stronger so he was sick now twice in a
- 2:52:15Speaker 1: short amount, of, time, Then RIGHT so i Don't know
- 2:52:22Speaker 1: virgil artis senor he said you were sick three weeks
- 2:52:25Speaker 1: Before The hooker junior or Before the. Hooker fight JUNIOR
- 2:52:30Speaker 1: gets covid the first wave that's, killing everyone. Our coaches our,
- 2:52:34Speaker 1: coach dies can't fly to the funeral because WE. Have covid. He's,
- 2:52:38Speaker 1: dead sick Still fights boa fight, one sparring he gets
- 2:52:44Speaker 1: cut on. The nose he couldn't spar almost all the
- 2:52:46Speaker 1: camp because he keep because his cut. Keeps, opening basically what,
- 2:52:51Speaker 1: you're saying all faced off picks, show it, you Know, sick,
- 2:52:56Speaker 1: friday Dead sick, saturday night. Blah blah he kind of.
- 2:53:00Speaker 1: Goes off so he, also said you have to go
- 2:53:05Speaker 1: through a doctor to. Be cleared everyone saw the doctor here.
- 2:53:08Speaker 1: Three Times We. Thursday friday you can't hide, an, injury
- 2:53:13Speaker 1: headache even flew by acting and trying to do act
- 2:53:17Speaker 1: normal the. Other stuff he kind of goes off. Of that,
- 2:53:20Speaker 1: but anyway it's Just not i'm not going to put
- 2:53:24Speaker 1: that in, the equation you KNOW what, I mean i'm
- 2:53:27Speaker 1: just not gonna. Do it you can if. You want.
- 2:53:31Speaker 1: That's fine it is what. It is here's. Role boxing
- 2:53:34Speaker 1: the winner Of bivill ad three will be able to
- 2:53:38Speaker 1: say they've had the best most complete run at one
- 2:53:41Speaker 1: seventy Five Since michael spinks basically tied in. That, regard
- 2:53:45Speaker 1: now if the winner went on To, beat benavitez they'd
- 2:53:48Speaker 1: cement their place in that kind. Of company with.
- 2:53:51Speaker 9: The, vengeance yeah that's, WELL said, I, Think Yeah brian
- 2:54:01Speaker 9: campbell was one of those guys that Said whether turkey
- 2:54:04Speaker 9: had access to the actual scorecards, mid fighter he was
- 2:54:07Speaker 9: simply sharing his Score to sharra's and. His team it's,
- 2:54:10Speaker 9: a bad, BAD look, i AGREED but i wouldn't go over.
- 2:54:14Speaker 9: The Top billy nelson has confirmed to me THIS.
- 2:54:18Speaker 1: Is Lh louise hart in an Interview With ring Magazine
- 2:54:24Speaker 1: that martin mccoley will still BE Fighting Faa jagna may
- 2:54:28Speaker 1: Second In. New york so now, he, says however not
- 2:54:34Speaker 1: AS an ibf. FINAL eliminator i suppose because he got
- 2:54:38Speaker 1: knocked down. Or, WHATEVER yeah i. Don't know there is
- 2:54:44Speaker 1: some Talk About callium Smith And. Andre Yard if yard Gets,
- 2:54:48Speaker 1: through arthur it does Suck For. Benavitez Man benavite is
- 2:54:53Speaker 1: is literally even though a lot of the same characters
- 2:55:00Speaker 1: are not gonna. Admit it but this is like a
- 2:55:03Speaker 1: Repeat of glovekin trying to Get the. Canelo, FIGHT now
- 2:55:08Speaker 1: i did Think that glovekin was Or that canelo was
- 2:55:11Speaker 1: Gonna give glovek in. THE fight i. Really DID and i.
- 2:55:15Speaker 1: SEE that i saw their play and they did that
- 2:55:19Speaker 1: infomercial that sold a lot of pay per Views With
- 2:55:23Speaker 1: chavis junior and they did a great job that night,
- 2:55:27Speaker 1: by introduce, you know, introducing it announcing the fight in
- 2:55:31Speaker 1: the ring. And ship that. WAS dope i, remember that
- 2:55:33Speaker 1: BUT and, i THOUGHT ultimately i did Think that canela
- 2:55:40Speaker 1: was gonna Take the, benavidez fight but it appears he's.
- 2:55:43Speaker 1: Not gonna But if Beval and benavite's Fight or Beval
- 2:55:49Speaker 1: in Better be a, fight again that'll be later. THIS
- 2:55:53Speaker 1: year i suppose it would line up For next may
- 2:55:57Speaker 1: for him. To fight so if He, fights beval let's
- 2:56:00Speaker 1: say he he because he hasn't really said he wants
- 2:56:03Speaker 1: To fight Better, be a but maybe he will now
- 2:56:06Speaker 1: because he Looks like Better be a slowed. Down some
- 2:56:09Speaker 1: but it just Sucks, for, benavidez dude Because If better
- 2:56:14Speaker 1: beev would, have won there's a good Chance that benavidez gets.
- 2:56:18Speaker 1: That fight will he will he Get The county smith
- 2:56:22Speaker 1: fight or will they want to try to DO a?
- 2:56:25Speaker 1: UK thing i, don't know but. It did it did
- 2:56:28Speaker 1: suck for great, you know good, good ass, great card good,
- 2:56:32Speaker 1: Main event but a trilogy has to Happen next i'm good.
- 2:56:37Speaker 1: With that i'm not gonna sit there and, dispute that
- 2:56:41Speaker 1: but it really does Suck For, david benavidez AND like,
- 2:56:45Speaker 1: i said you don't see this the, usual suspects acting
- 2:56:50Speaker 1: like he's not the love getting in the. Same scenario
- 2:56:54Speaker 1: i'm not trying to match him up, as Fighters but
- 2:56:59Speaker 1: i'm Saying that benevitez needs a big fight and this
- 2:57:05Speaker 1: was a shot to. Get one maybe he'll take on
- 2:57:08Speaker 1: a quality opponent and then get the. Winner later that's
- 2:57:12Speaker 1: all he can really hope for because it doesn't Look
- 2:57:14Speaker 1: like canelo's gonna. Fight, Him anyway i'm gonna get out,
- 2:57:16Speaker 1: of here enjoy. The fights we'll be back. Next week really
