- 0:32Speaker 3: with your brothers first because you got some some big news.
- 0:34Speaker 2: You got a new show coming out.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Yes, that's right, So let's break down the show, what
- 0:38Speaker 3: the show's gonna be talking about and everything.
- 0:40Speaker 8: Premiered a couple of weeks ago, with our first guests
- 0:42Speaker 8: being Jake Paul, which was an in depth conversation. You know,
- 0:46Speaker 8: obviously either you love him you hate him in the sport.
- 0:49Speaker 8: You know, I know charlotteels a certain way about him
- 0:52Speaker 8: in the sport, but he's very impactful and that was
- 0:55Speaker 8: a great combo. But it's gonna be a weekly show
- 0:57Speaker 8: on all the smoke. I know you guys are familiar with.
- 0:59Speaker 5: Of course, those guys absolutely.
- 1:02Speaker 8: And this is a division from All the Smoke. All
- 1:04Speaker 8: the Smoke Fight, so it's called Ring Champs, Dock and Barack.
- 1:07Speaker 8: It's been a long time coming, you know. You know,
- 1:09Speaker 8: people know us for being on the Zone and hosting
- 1:11Speaker 8: to his own boxing show, but we partnered up with
- 1:14Speaker 8: All the Smoke and we have ownership of the IP
- 1:17Speaker 8: and we're excited. It's been a long time coming, so
- 1:19Speaker 8: it's a great homes fit for us.
- 1:22Speaker 9: I respect what Jake Paul has done in the sport.
- 1:25Speaker 9: I just want him to start fighting real boxes.
- 1:27Speaker 1: I mean, he already fought a couple of real boxes
- 1:29Speaker 1: Tyson Furi Brothers. Even before that though, see he bought
- 1:32Speaker 1: two guys that nobody even heard of, you know what
- 1:34Speaker 1: I mean. So that's the thing. When you fight those guys,
- 1:37Speaker 1: nobody's looking for that. So if you come from the
- 1:39Speaker 1: YouTube world, you already making twenty thirty million dollars a year,
- 1:42Speaker 1: you ain't gonna fight Joe Schmoe because you ain't making
- 1:45Speaker 1: no money. So he has to look for these guys
- 1:47Speaker 1: in between fighting real fighters. He has to look for
- 1:49Speaker 1: guys that's gonna make him another twenty million, wasn't it.
- 1:52Speaker 9: Wasn't a Canelo fight on the cards, and then something happened.
- 1:56Speaker 8: According to Jake, the fight was signed. I don't know
- 1:58Speaker 8: if there's any truth to that, but there were there
- 2:01Speaker 8: was a conversation about it being announced and then you know,
- 2:04Speaker 8: some of you may know Turkey Alaschika's excellency from Saudi
- 2:08Speaker 8: has taken over the sport for the most.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Part, So what is he doing to the sport? Because
- 2:11Speaker 2: we keep hearing that about Jake fighting.
- 2:14Speaker 8: So there were there were rumors that they were going
- 2:16Speaker 8: to fight in May, and Canelo was gonna fight Bud
- 2:19Speaker 8: Terrence Crawford in September. But Turkey ala Sheik supposedly offered
- 2:24Speaker 8: Canelo a four fight there where it was too much
- 2:26Speaker 8: money to refuse, right, and it's you know, but Jake
- 2:31Speaker 8: had to be out of the equation, so to speak.
- 2:33Speaker 8: So that's what Jake put out there. But we do
- 2:35Speaker 8: know that Canelo does have a four fight with Turkey
- 2:38Speaker 8: ala Chic and Bud will be the fight in September.
- 2:40Speaker 9: Yeah, Jake was the planning to retire after the Canelo
- 2:42Speaker 9: fight last his boxing career.
- 2:44Speaker 1: There's no way. One hundred million probably easy made a lot.
- 2:48Speaker 3: Of money now talking about the sheik that you you've
- 2:51Speaker 3: been talking about. They say he's been spending a lot
- 2:53Speaker 3: of money in boxing and is he making it back
- 2:56Speaker 3: and why?
- 2:56Speaker 2: And is it helping the sport hurting the sport?
- 2:59Speaker 8: I mean it's one hundred and help helping the sport.
- 3:01Speaker 8: I mean for you fight fan, anybody is a hardcore
- 3:03Speaker 8: fight fan. This past weekend for a twenty second it's
- 3:06Speaker 8: probably the best card in history in terms of championship,
- 3:09Speaker 8: back to back entertaining fights.
- 3:11Speaker 5: Maybe not for the.
- 3:12Speaker 8: Casuals because first off, it was that it started at
- 3:14Speaker 8: like twelve in the morning on Saturday. But yes, he's
- 3:18Speaker 8: putting a lot of money into the sport. If is
- 3:20Speaker 8: he getting it back right now? I'm not sure. Probably not,
- 3:24Speaker 8: But he's creating the fights that everybody wants to see.
- 3:27Speaker 8: So for a fight fan, I mean, Charlot's a hardgo
- 3:30Speaker 8: fight fan. That's a fighter's fight. I mean, that's what
- 3:32Speaker 8: we want because these fighters want to get paid a
- 3:35Speaker 8: certain amount. That's why the fights don't happen because the
- 3:38Speaker 8: money's not there. Money's not an issue with it.
- 3:40Speaker 1: That's always been the issue though, because we said we
- 3:42Speaker 1: want to see the best fights. Remember we was waiting
- 3:44Speaker 1: for Terrence Crawff with to fight Spence, but for a
- 3:46Speaker 1: couple of years because the money, the money wasn't right now.
- 3:49Speaker 1: So if somebody come with a whole bag of money,
- 3:51Speaker 1: an endless bag of money, then you good for the sport.
- 3:54Speaker 1: That's the kind of guy that could get tanked to
- 3:56Speaker 1: fight chicaor Stevenson or somebody like that, you know.
- 3:59Speaker 4: And also, why don't you pay you all a million
- 4:01Speaker 4: dollars just to go over there?
- 4:02Speaker 1: And who said they didn't.
- 4:05Speaker 4: The zone doing all of this and saw you Arabia.
- 4:07Speaker 4: I'm with my guys.
- 4:08Speaker 5: You're right, You're right. We are we talk because we
- 4:11Speaker 5: need to be a part of that.
- 4:12Speaker 8: But yeah, another thing that's great for the sport is
- 4:14Speaker 8: ring champs, you know because all of smoke right, what
- 4:17Speaker 8: they assemble was a like an.
- 4:19Speaker 5: All star team.
- 4:20Speaker 8: We got andre Ward, Roy Jones, hall of famers, the
- 4:23Speaker 8: big HBO analysts for years, you know, man Stack, you
- 4:27Speaker 8: know what they do, uh Morning Combat, Luke Thomas, Uh
- 4:31Speaker 8: Luke Thomas and Brian Campbell.
- 4:33Speaker 5: So and then us like bringing that young energy.
- 4:36Speaker 8: To the sport and we're gonna be in every huge
- 4:38Speaker 8: fight covering, you know, with live content and our weekly
- 4:41Speaker 8: show sitting down with the biggest names of the sport,
- 4:44Speaker 8: and uh yeah, that's what the sport.
- 4:45Speaker 5: Needs, you know what.
- 4:46Speaker 1: I think it's even since our days on this is
- 4:48Speaker 1: fifty dot com with fifty cent is like we brought
- 4:51Speaker 1: that different culture to boxing. There was nobody mainstream like
- 4:55Speaker 1: us urban, you know what I mean. So it's like
- 4:57Speaker 1: it just made sense for us to transition to all
- 5:00Speaker 1: the smoke that already has that finger on the pulse
- 5:03Speaker 1: in that culture, you know what I mean, So we
- 5:04Speaker 1: bringing that to boxing.
- 5:05Speaker 5: And also show Time.
- 5:06Speaker 8: You know, Brian Daly was an exact Showtime for years
- 5:09Speaker 8: and he was in mind behind a lot of the
- 5:12Speaker 8: great content that Showtime put out.
- 5:15Speaker 5: So it's just a perfect perfect home for us.
- 5:18Speaker 9: I wonder if not having that that cable network like
- 5:21Speaker 9: an HBO or a Showtime doing boxing, I wonder if
- 5:24Speaker 9: that's hurting it because casuals aren't necessarily tuning in like
- 5:29Speaker 9: and I think you need.
- 5:30Speaker 4: Can you be successful without the casual Yeah?
- 5:32Speaker 1: You know what, First of all, no, no, now you can't,
- 5:36Speaker 1: absolutely cannot, but think about this. People steal cable nowadays anyway,
- 5:40Speaker 1: most people stealing cable, So in reality, I think the
- 5:43Speaker 1: zone is taking over boxing. You know the network that
- 5:46Speaker 1: we started with, but people don't even know they watching
- 5:49Speaker 1: the zone. When you stealing cable, you don't know what
- 5:54Speaker 1: it's on your box. It's on your TV, but you
- 5:56Speaker 1: don't really know sometimes what network network it is because
- 5:59Speaker 1: you steal it. You pirting it, you know what I mean.
- 6:02Speaker 1: So to answer your question, no, we can't live without
- 6:04Speaker 1: the without them, but I think it could still thrive.
- 6:07Speaker 8: But that's what's hurt in the sport. Pirrating, like not
- 6:10Speaker 8: wanting to pay for the pay per view, Like get
- 6:12Speaker 8: a couple of friends together and you've been for the paper.
- 6:14Speaker 8: Now you're stealing from the fighters. You're stealing from us.
- 6:18Speaker 8: It's terrible.
- 6:19Speaker 2: It's so easy now.
- 6:20Speaker 3: You always hear about people in their fire sticks. You
- 6:22Speaker 3: always hear about online. You can go to stream whatever.
- 6:26Speaker 1: The legal fight sticking here? Raise your hand?
- 6:28Speaker 5: Illegal one?
- 6:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm saying it's one out.
- 6:35Speaker 5: Are you paying for fights?
- 6:41Speaker 1: But watch them?
- 6:42Speaker 2: You're gonna watcht Yes.
- 6:49Speaker 8: He's done amazing things for the sports Turkey. So we're
- 6:52Speaker 8: excited about this year.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Not a fight this weekend, right, it's at the ball
- 6:55Speaker 3: players before we get to the fight. Do you think
- 6:57Speaker 3: fights happen better when they're in New York or is
- 7:00Speaker 3: it better when they're in Vegas better than they're in
- 7:01Speaker 3: different areas. I just feel like you don't get the
- 7:03Speaker 3: feeling Vegas.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Vegas.
- 7:05Speaker 8: I mean, Vegas benefits from it, you know, from all
- 7:09Speaker 8: the people there in town, gambling, spending money, partying. But
- 7:13Speaker 8: as far as the fight fan experience in the arena,
- 7:16Speaker 8: it doesn't really matter where you are. If the two
- 7:19Speaker 8: fighters that you want to see fight are fighting each other,
- 7:22Speaker 8: the energy is I mean, you've been allowed of fights like.
- 7:25Speaker 5: It doesn't matter where you are.
- 7:28Speaker 6: Does it sound more in Vegas?
- 7:32Speaker 1: It depends what it gotta be. I'm here and at
- 7:35Speaker 1: the different crowds different Yo. When Brooklyn come out, especially
- 7:39Speaker 1: for Javonte Davis, it's a special crowd. I never see these.
- 7:42Speaker 2: People like Vegas.
- 7:46Speaker 5: Vegas is a little more.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Is better security, everybody know, everybody.
- 7:50Speaker 7: You know what.
- 7:53Speaker 8: Happened when Tech for was that? Yeah, I mean it
- 7:59Speaker 8: got crazy.
- 8:00Speaker 5: I'm saying that was a.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Stand, but I'm just saying it was. It was somebody
- 8:04Speaker 1: had a gun out. It was a stampede. Dude just running, trumping,
- 8:07Speaker 1: falling downstairs.
- 8:08Speaker 5: Whatever. Let's not throw tank under the bus like that.
- 8:11Speaker 5: We've been to his fight and s and it was fine.
- 8:14Speaker 2: There was no issue in brooklynbody.
- 8:17Speaker 4: I was at the Barclays one night. It was that
- 8:19Speaker 4: Bruna Vargas fight. Yeah, shot went off that night.
- 8:24Speaker 5: I was like in twenty eighteen something like that.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Yeah somebody, I've seen somebody run like the supposed six
- 8:30Speaker 1: nine and.
- 8:33Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah exactly who.
- 8:34Speaker 2: Yeah, let's let's break down this fight. Do you want
- 8:36Speaker 2: to bring him in now?
- 8:36Speaker 1: No, I want to.
- 8:37Speaker 9: I want to ask him two more questions about another fight.
- 8:39Speaker 9: Do y'all think icole a through the fight against Paul No?
- 8:42Speaker 4: No, that a lot of people saying, so.
- 8:46Speaker 5: He's coming off the couch, right.
- 8:48Speaker 8: You know, Turkey Ala Chika's excellency is offering you a
- 8:50Speaker 8: bag of money. You need to save this card? Why sick?
- 8:54Speaker 5: We cannot cancer that Joseph Parker fight. So you know
- 8:57Speaker 5: he got offered the bag of money.
- 8:59Speaker 8: He's not training, he's not expecting to fight really, so
- 9:03Speaker 8: in this sport, even if you're a heavyweight, you need
- 9:05Speaker 8: to have some sort of training camp to be competitive.
- 9:07Speaker 8: Joseph Parker was training for eight weeks for this fight,
- 9:11Speaker 8: So there's no way in the hell that guy's gonna
- 9:12Speaker 8: throw a fight. He just got knocked out.
- 9:14Speaker 1: This sounds crazy to me, but I could kind of
- 9:16Speaker 1: see them saying that because I saw a video of
- 9:18Speaker 1: what crazy throwing the frog, but but Cooley going to
- 9:22Speaker 1: him and hugging him, Joseph Parker afterwards saying you my brother,
- 9:25Speaker 1: So it kind of looked friendly. But I still think
- 9:28Speaker 1: he got enough integrity not to throw the fight, because
- 9:30Speaker 1: then I.
- 9:30Speaker 9: Guess everybody was saying. The punch that that landed, that
- 9:33Speaker 9: knocked him out of just looked like a grazy.
- 9:34Speaker 1: People never got hit in the in the temple by somebody.
- 9:37Speaker 5: People, when I hit up here, your.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Brain starts shaking. You lose your equal living him. You
- 9:42Speaker 1: might not feel pain, You're not gonna feel pain, you know,
- 9:45Speaker 1: but you're gonna lose it.
- 9:46Speaker 9: And that's all it was, especially if you're three hundred
- 9:49Speaker 9: plus pounds, like you said, just getting off.
- 9:50Speaker 4: The country, didn't have no training.
- 9:51Speaker 5: That's what I thought.
- 9:52Speaker 9: It looked like a hammer punched at the top of
- 9:54Speaker 9: the head, and maybe his corner overreacted a little bit
- 9:56Speaker 9: and it was.
- 9:56Speaker 5: Just like he was dancing. I mean, he was done.
- 9:59Speaker 5: I mean, you get hit on the top of the
- 10:01Speaker 5: head that hard, it's dangerous.
- 10:03Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think I can act that good.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Right in that moment, even though I agree, I wouldn't
- 10:10Speaker 1: have said that.
- 10:12Speaker 9: But okay, another one. Do we think Do we think
- 10:15Speaker 9: Tank is duck and chaque Stevenson.
- 10:18Speaker 8: Me personally, No, I don't think Tank is is necessarily
- 10:21Speaker 8: scared to fight anybody.
- 10:23Speaker 5: He's a true fighter.
- 10:25Speaker 8: But Tank has has become this person that, you know,
- 10:29Speaker 8: I guess his influence from Floyd where he doesn't have
- 10:32Speaker 8: to do anything he doesn't want to do. He doesn't
- 10:34Speaker 8: care about like pleasing a fan so to speak. It's
- 10:37Speaker 8: about money, his legacy, and I respect that, you know,
- 10:40Speaker 8: because when it's all said and done, the fans, they're
- 10:43Speaker 8: not going to.
- 10:43Speaker 5: Take care of you. Right So he's worrying about securing
- 10:45Speaker 5: the biggest bags.
- 10:46Speaker 8: But right now, because Turkey Alaska is involved in squar
- 10:50Speaker 8: Stevenson's career, that big bag of money will be offered
- 10:54Speaker 8: to Tank to fight Shakur. So I think after like
- 10:57Speaker 8: this year, there won't be any more excuses on why
- 11:00Speaker 8: he's not fighting Chicur because the money would be outrageous beautiful.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Because the word duck is a loaded word. It implies fear,
- 11:08Speaker 1: you know, when we use it in the boxing where like, yo,
- 11:10Speaker 1: you're scared, So definitely Tank nobody he puts people to sleep,
- 11:15Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But there has to be
- 11:17Speaker 1: a reason why. We do know that he's in charge
- 11:19Speaker 1: of his career, so if he's not fighting, it's not
- 11:21Speaker 1: nobody else's reason.
- 11:23Speaker 8: And that's one of the best matchups in all the
- 11:24Speaker 8: box I mean, she call the phenomenal. I don't care
- 11:26Speaker 8: what people saying that it took him nine rounds to
- 11:29Speaker 8: knock this guy out of there. They were complaining that
- 11:31Speaker 8: Court never stops anybody. He stopped somebody. What else do
- 11:34Speaker 8: you want from this kid?
- 11:35Speaker 1: Now? You gotta stop, you gotta stop in the first round.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Makes me happy.
- 11:38Speaker 2: But that's the best fighting box Who's the face of
- 11:40Speaker 2: boxing now?
- 11:41Speaker 1: And there is no stop fronting. Canore is the face
- 11:46Speaker 1: of boxing. Happy faces, all right, but who's the most
- 11:51Speaker 1: all right? Who's the face of basketball right now? But
- 11:55Speaker 1: there's many faces, that's it, So it's Canelo album is
- 12:02Speaker 1: a star everywhere around the world. Tank is very very popular,
- 12:07Speaker 1: but Canelo's the star.
- 12:08Speaker 8: Yeah, And don't forget about Bud even though he's low key.
- 12:11Speaker 8: The casual fans after the Spench fight, they know who
- 12:14Speaker 8: he is. He's one of the faces of boxing as well.
- 12:16Speaker 4: Do you think you know? A lot of people have
- 12:18Speaker 4: been questioning the Tank's resume.
- 12:19Speaker 9: They was like, are you talking about Quintin But you
- 12:21Speaker 9: don't have don't have no Hall of Famers on your resume,
- 12:24Speaker 9: Like your resume is weak?
- 12:25Speaker 5: What you think about He doesn't care about that obviously.
- 12:28Speaker 8: I mean, even though Tank hasn't fought those elite fights
- 12:32Speaker 8: that we want to see him and we still got
- 12:34Speaker 8: him on a Power of Pound list, He's still one
- 12:36Speaker 8: of the best fighters in the sport.
- 12:37Speaker 5: So I think nobody's questioning this skill level.
- 12:40Speaker 8: But when it's all said and done, I think there'll
- 12:42Speaker 8: be some question marks there, like if he doesn't fight
- 12:45Speaker 8: this your corps or it's your females of the world,
- 12:48Speaker 8: they might.
- 12:49Speaker 5: Be, but I don't think he cares.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Yeah, but at the end of the day, like even
- 12:53Speaker 1: if you have losses, but you fought the best, then
- 12:55Speaker 1: your legacy is stamped forever, you know what I mean.
- 12:58Speaker 1: So Muhammad Ali got multiple losses, Pakia got multiple losses,
- 13:02Speaker 1: and they're still one of the best of all time.
- 13:05Speaker 1: So it's not even about beating everybody making money. It's
- 13:07Speaker 1: about fighting the best you know, but.
- 13:09Speaker 4: Who when did you call a Tank fight?
- 13:12Speaker 1: That's a fifty to fifty fight if you ask me,
- 13:14Speaker 1: I think it could go either way. I think Tank
- 13:16Speaker 1: got the power to put everybody to sleep. But if
- 13:19Speaker 1: you look at it, Chaquour has the best boxing probably
- 13:24Speaker 1: rather defense of all times. You know what I'm saying,
- 13:26Speaker 1: He's not He's not. I mean he's he don't get hit, literally,
- 13:30Speaker 1: don't get hit. It might not be as pretty as
- 13:32Speaker 1: Pranelle Whittaker, because that's my favorite, you know what I mean, butenomenal,
- 13:37Speaker 1: but his defense is crazy.
- 13:40Speaker 8: It is because he takes a little less risk. Floyd
- 13:42Speaker 8: took more risk in that ring, especially young, you know,
- 13:45Speaker 8: when he was younger and in his career. But I
- 13:48Speaker 8: love that fight. I want to make a prediction. I
- 13:50Speaker 8: want to say that Shaqour can out box Tank.
- 13:52Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.
- 13:53Speaker 4: And I think I can get out boxing. But Boy
- 13:56Speaker 4: would get to him.
- 13:57Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know what, I'll say it right now.
- 14:00Speaker 8: If that fight ever happens, I think Tank doesn't get
- 14:03Speaker 8: to him in that fight after twelve rounds wins more.
- 14:07Speaker 1: That could easily happen. I can't say easily, but that
- 14:09Speaker 1: guy happens because is very brilliant and very fight but
- 14:12Speaker 1: but Tank is not a brawler. Tank sets you up.
- 14:16Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's just the best fight that
- 14:17Speaker 1: could happen. But skill wise, that's the best setting you up.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Though if he wants to no no, no, no no
- 14:23Speaker 1: no no, not necessarily if he wants to. So he
- 14:25Speaker 1: did that with Leo Sana Cruz because he couldn't hurt him.
- 14:28Speaker 1: He ain't do that with Roly. He ain't let Roly
- 14:31Speaker 1: hit him. He ain't lose rounds with Roly.
- 14:32Speaker 8: But he might feel that Chicourt can't hurt him either,
- 14:34Speaker 8: But that doesn't mean he won't lose a bunch of
- 14:36Speaker 8: rounds and then next thing you know, it's a twelve
- 14:38Speaker 8: round and it's too late.
- 14:39Speaker 5: So we know.
- 14:40Speaker 8: I mean that fight is the best in Canelo and Bud,
- 14:42Speaker 8: two best matchups in boxing.
- 14:45Speaker 6: What if Tank does fight all these these these people
- 14:47Speaker 6: all want to see him fight and he loses, does
- 14:49Speaker 6: that affect his legacy?
- 14:52Speaker 5: The one?
- 14:53Speaker 8: No?
- 14:53Speaker 1: At one? You know why because if they already complaining
- 14:57Speaker 1: that he didn't fight the best, and then you take
- 15:00Speaker 1: a loss when you fight the best, then they're gonna
- 15:02Speaker 1: say you never had it, even though I think he does.
- 15:05Speaker 1: They're gonna say that you never really had it, and
- 15:07Speaker 1: that's the sad part.
- 15:08Speaker 5: Yeah, it's true.
- 15:09Speaker 4: Who wins Canelo? Bud one sixty eight.
- 15:16Speaker 1: Bud been to my house Canelo, like I've been to
- 15:18Speaker 1: Canelo's house. Bro, Like he asked me that, like this,
- 15:21Speaker 1: this is old.
- 15:22Speaker 4: I gotta go.
- 15:23Speaker 6: No love.
- 15:24Speaker 8: Both those guys probably close close to the but you know,
- 15:27Speaker 8: he's more of a personal friend. I just think that
- 15:30Speaker 8: people keep putting too much emphasis in the weight. But
- 15:33Speaker 8: is just as big as Canelo. His arms are longer,
- 15:36Speaker 8: he's strong as an ox.
- 15:37Speaker 5: The dude put me in a choe code. He's so strong.
- 15:41Speaker 5: This fight is not gonna go You're not.
- 15:43Speaker 1: So that didn't make him sound That didn't make him
- 15:46Speaker 1: sound strong.
- 15:47Speaker 5: So so I think that you never put me in
- 15:53Speaker 5: a jo.
- 15:54Speaker 1: But did I taped Bud out?
- 15:55Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 15:59Speaker 4: Bro, and way to y'all just be wrestling justst.
- 16:05Speaker 5: So, I don't know. I can't tell you. But what's
- 16:07Speaker 5: gonna be a good fight?
- 16:08Speaker 1: Now?
- 16:09Speaker 5: We have a Lamont roach coming in? Was good? What's brother?
- 16:15Speaker 1: That's a that is a good fight.
- 16:16Speaker 4: I can't It's hard.
- 16:17Speaker 9: It's hard to bet against bud Man. But but you
- 16:21Speaker 9: see what Canelo can do. I just don't want to
- 16:22Speaker 9: personally say I think but will lose because I said
- 16:25Speaker 9: that for years and he showed you.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Oh my god, I definitely.
- 16:29Speaker 5: Showed him that.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Said over there.
- 16:35Speaker 5: So you're picking but in that fight.
- 16:37Speaker 4: No, I'm not picking nobody.
- 16:38Speaker 1: I'm just gonna watch it.
- 16:40Speaker 4: I'm just gonna enjoy it for what it is.
- 16:41Speaker 2: But we have Lamont Roach Junior here. He's fighting this weekend.
- 16:44Speaker 5: Welcome brother.
- 16:45Speaker 2: How you feel a mareciate it man? As your training
- 16:48Speaker 2: been so far?
- 16:49Speaker 5: It's been perfect, It's been excellent. Honestly.
- 16:52Speaker 2: I grew up in Maryland. Yeah, I grew up in
- 16:54Speaker 2: d C and Maryland, d C and Maryland and and you.
- 16:56Speaker 4: Know, so this is a Baltimore d again.
- 16:59Speaker 7: I'm I'm from Washington, d C.
- 17:01Speaker 10: Like that's my hometown. That's where I grew up. And
- 17:04Speaker 10: you know, I grew up in Prince George County, Maryland too,
- 17:06Speaker 10: But I'm from d C.
- 17:07Speaker 4: You're fighting for the whole city. We got to try
- 17:10Speaker 4: to beat Tank for sure. Is it like a real
- 17:12Speaker 4: Baltimore DC thing?
- 17:14Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like, yeah, we don't. I'm from Baltimore from
- 17:17Speaker 7: d C.
- 17:17Speaker 5: But I like, so you don't rock with them? No, No,
- 17:19Speaker 5: I love DC.
- 17:23Speaker 2: They bought my tickets all the time.
- 17:24Speaker 6: But the whole trajectory of the Baltimore versus d C thing,
- 17:27Speaker 6: that's always gonna be a.
- 17:28Speaker 5: Thing always, no matter what.
- 17:30Speaker 7: Did you just sports? Did you always goanna fight tank?
- 17:34Speaker 1: Uh?
- 17:34Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean just competition wise. We grew up in
- 17:37Speaker 10: the same you know what I'm saying, the same amateur
- 17:40Speaker 10: boxing realm. We technically to the whole world. We down
- 17:43Speaker 10: the street from each other, and then boxing we're close.
- 17:46Speaker 10: So like Baltimore fight in the d C Golden Gloves,
- 17:49Speaker 10: Baltimore fight in the uh you know the regionals that the.
- 17:53Speaker 7: Silver gloves and stuff like that. So we always competing
- 17:56Speaker 7: with each other.
- 17:56Speaker 5: They're asking is uglier than I was. Ain't in no way.
- 18:03Speaker 7: Say to stay to see it's way different.
- 18:06Speaker 2: But they say I'm going back and all that, like.
- 18:11Speaker 5: Different country, yea, something about it. You ain't from from Maryland?
- 18:15Speaker 5: Like what was what was that? Because I'm like Areland
- 18:19Speaker 5: d C.
- 18:19Speaker 7: Yeah, d C is not in Maryland.
- 18:21Speaker 1: No, I get that, But but you said you're from
- 18:23Speaker 1: d C and Maryland though, yeah, I live in both.
- 18:27Speaker 4: So I grew up with Heights if probably I thought
- 18:35Speaker 4: to say Crime Heights, Maryland.
- 18:36Speaker 10: I don't know.
- 18:36Speaker 5: I' from.
- 18:40Speaker 1: From I'm from d C.
- 18:41Speaker 10: I'm from I'm from lee Joy Park. I'm from Uptown.
- 18:43Speaker 10: I'm from le Joy Park. So that's like the Shaw
- 18:45Speaker 10: Howard area for people who don't know. But my parents,
- 18:50Speaker 10: my mother and father moved to Prince George County if
- 18:53Speaker 10: you if people don't know, like the line is like
- 18:56Speaker 10: right here, like d C Prince George County, d C Prince.
- 19:00Speaker 10: So it's like it's like right there. It's like I
- 19:02Speaker 10: don't know how close Burrows are, but it be some
- 19:05Speaker 10: people that.
- 19:05Speaker 5: Be on the line, that's true across York and Queen.
- 19:10Speaker 7: Something like like from New York, but they be from Jersey,
- 19:14Speaker 7: right like this guy right here.
- 19:17Speaker 3: So yeah, so this st ain't far enough away from me,
- 19:19Speaker 3: right because d C and Baltimore can drive to this fight.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Yeah nah, I lie, I prefer Vegas Ware niggas got
- 19:25Speaker 2: anybody can get in the.
- 19:29Speaker 1: That can occur.
- 19:30Speaker 7: That's why the fight not happening in d C. M
- 19:33Speaker 7: of course, but that means drive.
- 19:35Speaker 10: It's only three hours, yeah, but I'm saying from just
- 19:38Speaker 10: from hours, that's more pressure respective like cities for sure.
- 19:43Speaker 9: Does it really matter though, if you having a fight
- 19:44Speaker 9: in d C. I mean Maryland, Baltimore right there. Everybody
- 19:47Speaker 9: can come from Baltimore.
- 19:48Speaker 10: I think so too, but I think I think more
- 19:50Speaker 10: so it is probably strategic because he didn't want, I mean,
- 19:53Speaker 10: Tank a superstar. So you know every time he going
- 19:55Speaker 10: into a fight, the crowd is gonna be pro him.
- 19:59Speaker 10: If the fight is in DC, crowd wi and be
- 20:01Speaker 10: damn they pro me or fifty fifty.
- 20:03Speaker 1: Oh, I see what you're saying. So, since you grew
- 20:06Speaker 1: up in the same amateur time period, were you ever friends?
- 20:09Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I've known since I was like ten,
- 20:11Speaker 10: so we always seen each other. Like he always made
- 20:14Speaker 10: it to the nationals. I always made it to the nationals.
- 20:16Speaker 10: So it was always like in those tournaments, we'll see
- 20:18Speaker 10: each other all the time.
- 20:20Speaker 3: Before twice who when we fought, he won both times.
- 20:26Speaker 7: The first time we fought in Baltimore, that was BS.
- 20:29Speaker 7: He shouldn't have won that, but oh.
- 20:32Speaker 4: Fifteen, So what kind of win was it?
- 20:35Speaker 10: It was a spit decision win in Baltimore three to two.
- 20:38Speaker 10: But it's it's like some BS happened. My dad sent
- 20:42Speaker 10: the tape to USA Boxing and they was like, nah,
- 20:44Speaker 10: you like that shouldn't have happened.
- 20:46Speaker 5: So you felt like you want to that fight? Yeah,
- 20:47Speaker 5: for sure.
- 20:48Speaker 10: I mean USA Boxing sent me an at large bid
- 20:50Speaker 10: to the nationals. Like we fought in the regionals and
- 20:53Speaker 10: he was the regional champ. But when they seen the video,
- 20:56Speaker 10: they was like, all right, we'll see your at large
- 20:58Speaker 10: bid and they put us on two sides of the bracket.
- 21:01Speaker 5: He made the championship.
- 21:02Speaker 10: I made the championship and he won a close fight
- 21:05Speaker 10: in the championship one and two in the nation.
- 21:07Speaker 8: Though, since you fought him and spared him, is he
- 21:09Speaker 8: the hardest punch that you shared the ring with.
- 21:11Speaker 11: No, No, no, you know a little older or Spawn
- 21:20Speaker 11: was just during that time, Spawn was like before we evenfore,
- 21:23Speaker 11: like the last time we was in the ring together
- 21:25Speaker 11: this movie, before I became the Reaper.
- 21:29Speaker 10: Yeah, but back then I was considered a bigger puncher
- 21:33Speaker 10: than him. Like you know what I'm saying, damateurs, What
- 21:35Speaker 10: about now?
- 21:36Speaker 4: How do you feel like you have a bigger punch
- 21:37Speaker 4: than him?
- 21:37Speaker 5: Now?
- 21:37Speaker 7: I feel like I'm a bigger punch than Mike Tyson,
- 21:39Speaker 7: that's right, But I can brock.
- 21:42Speaker 4: What do you think of this technical.
- 21:54Speaker 5: We're supposed to say, like now, I don't really punch that.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Figure out, just show him one good time.
- 22:05Speaker 1: I'm you don't get the deserting a puncher. Look, obviously
- 22:14Speaker 1: you're the underdoor because you got a loss already and
- 22:16Speaker 1: lost to Jamil Herring, who who got beat by your course?
- 22:19Speaker 1: So how are you a better fighter than that time period?
- 22:23Speaker 7: I'm a thousand times better fighter than that, uh, than
- 22:27Speaker 7: that time period.
- 22:27Speaker 10: And if anybody know and and and the people you
- 22:30Speaker 10: guys know that fight, you gotta tell you gotta tell me.
- 22:33Speaker 10: Sure that fight took it out of Jamail for sure.
- 22:35Speaker 10: I mean no disrespect to him, and no disrespects went
- 22:39Speaker 10: over him either. But ever since then, it's just been
- 22:41Speaker 10: a different Jamail, like downhill and he was just over
- 22:45Speaker 10: the hump.
- 22:45Speaker 7: He was over the hill after that fight.
- 22:48Speaker 10: That was in twenty nineteen, right, yeah, that was in
- 22:50Speaker 10: twenty nineteen, right now, Like you know I took that
- 22:53Speaker 10: I took from that fight was you know they're not
- 22:55Speaker 10: gonna give you none. I started a little late on
- 22:57Speaker 10: that fight. If I would have started earlier, I probably
- 22:59Speaker 10: would knock Hi. Like we're playing on doing We never
- 23:01Speaker 10: planned on winning. On the score cards in that entire camp.
- 23:05Speaker 10: That entire camp, they were stacked against us top rank card.
- 23:09Speaker 5: He was a champ.
- 23:11Speaker 1: It was veterans.
- 23:12Speaker 10: They weekend, they had a story on him, and you
- 23:14Speaker 10: know what I'm saying, his tragedies and stuff like that,
- 23:16Speaker 10: but just it was built for the you know what
- 23:18Speaker 10: I'm saying, serves the country, you know, not root for that.
- 23:21Speaker 10: I feel you, So you know what I'm saying. So
- 23:23Speaker 10: we knew we wasn't gonna get none, no paper, but
- 23:25Speaker 10: you know, I just started.
- 23:26Speaker 1: What about this fight? Tank is being said like they
- 23:29Speaker 1: was asking who's the face of boxing? And Tank is
- 23:31Speaker 1: one of those faces of me? So are you going
- 23:33Speaker 1: in that game? You're going in this with the game
- 23:35Speaker 1: plan that I got to knock him out in order
- 23:36Speaker 1: to get the victory.
- 23:38Speaker 7: Nah, not necessarily, but I'm trying to. I'm trying to.
- 23:42Speaker 10: I mean, I'll be trying to knock anybody out. I'm
- 23:44Speaker 10: trying forever. I'm trying to get shit cracking.
- 23:46Speaker 5: For you know.
- 23:48Speaker 8: And be mentioned about there, there's a stigma with Tank
- 23:52Speaker 8: about him not fighting elite fighters, right, do you agree
- 23:56Speaker 8: with that?
- 23:56Speaker 5: Do you feel Tank is overrated or does he get
- 23:59Speaker 5: the he deserves nothing?
- 24:01Speaker 4: Sultan right for you, it would be damn sure.
- 24:03Speaker 7: That's what I was gonna start that that being Sultan.
- 24:06Speaker 7: But nah, I don't agree.
- 24:10Speaker 5: Is good.
- 24:10Speaker 7: I think it's I think it's a resume is solid. Yeah,
- 24:13Speaker 7: for sure. I think people don't understand that the business
- 24:17Speaker 7: get in a.
- 24:18Speaker 10: Way of some a lot of stuff and and nine
- 24:23Speaker 10: times out of ten, because some people do use the
- 24:24Speaker 10: business to expect the duck fights. I ain't gonna lie,
- 24:27Speaker 10: but nine times out of ten it do be stuff
- 24:30Speaker 10: that just don't line up. There'd be a whole rocker
- 24:33Speaker 10: stuff that don't line up. And I wouldn't necessarily say
- 24:37Speaker 10: he ducking a fight.
- 24:39Speaker 7: I mean, like you know what I'm saying, we men.
- 24:40Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I wouldn't see Tank ducking anybody with your
- 24:43Speaker 8: point the financially in a way some.
- 24:46Speaker 10: People feel, I mean, you can't argue with guy what
- 24:49Speaker 10: you feel like he deserves or especially if he earned it,
- 24:53Speaker 10: or you know what I'm saying, like it just if
- 24:55Speaker 10: you want to fight on his terms.
- 24:56Speaker 7: And that's just how this ship worked.
- 24:59Speaker 5: So what do you do.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Let's say you win the fight or come Saturday night,
- 25:03Speaker 1: what do you do? Do you stay? Because it's a
- 25:05Speaker 1: different weight class. You already a champion at one thirty.
- 25:08Speaker 1: You coming up to one thirty five fighting a champion there?
- 25:10Speaker 1: Do you stay in that weight class or you go
- 25:12Speaker 1: back down.
- 25:13Speaker 5: I'm going to do both.
- 25:15Speaker 7: I'm gonna try to do both. But I'm like we
- 25:17Speaker 7: I talked to the WBA already and like.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Hopefully, but you can eat twininkies now you good?
- 25:21Speaker 11: Like good?
- 25:23Speaker 5: If down he's fighting Tank again.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely.
- 25:29Speaker 10: So I mean, I have no choice but to stay
- 25:31Speaker 10: at thirty five, but I did ask them to, you know,
- 25:35Speaker 10: if I can, let me do my obligations to keep
- 25:38Speaker 10: my belt at thirty just in case the business don't
- 25:41Speaker 10: line up at thirty five. People might be busy, or
- 25:45Speaker 10: the champs might be busy, they might be fighting somebody.
- 25:47Speaker 10: Let's let's pray they don't. But if they do, I
- 25:51Speaker 10: can go unify at thirty.
- 25:52Speaker 5: Let me ask you a question.
- 25:53Speaker 8: When the Tank opportunity came up right monetarily, right when
- 25:57Speaker 8: you got the offer, were you did you go shad?
- 26:00Speaker 8: Did your team negotiating now we want a little more
- 26:02Speaker 8: for tech or did you say yes right away to
- 26:04Speaker 8: the opportunity.
- 26:05Speaker 10: I say yes to the opportunity, but we our negotiation
- 26:09Speaker 10: was more so what we had on our plate.
- 26:12Speaker 7: We had paper on the plate, like.
- 26:14Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying, Like, but it's just like
- 26:16Speaker 10: the upside is, the upside is greater than the fight
- 26:22Speaker 10: that I would have took for about the same amount
- 26:24Speaker 10: of money or a little more, you know what I'm saying. Like,
- 26:27Speaker 10: So so it's not your biggest pay, No, this is
- 26:29Speaker 10: gonna be big, you know what I'm saying.
- 26:31Speaker 5: What we had on the table, but not fighting somebody
- 26:34Speaker 5: else outside somebody else? Who was that person? My mandatory?
- 26:39Speaker 5: Who was guy from uh what's his name?
- 26:42Speaker 1: You don't even know?
- 26:45Speaker 8: You had the same amount of money fighting tech as
- 26:50Speaker 8: your mandatory. So you're getting a piece of a pay
- 26:53Speaker 8: per view numbers?
- 26:54Speaker 7: Who said that?
- 26:55Speaker 1: So it don't matter.
- 27:00Speaker 7: Yeah, the upside is, no doubt.
- 27:04Speaker 9: What did you what did you learn from your loss
- 27:06Speaker 9: against Jamal hearing that you would take into this fight
- 27:09Speaker 9: Like how did how did the loss make you a
- 27:11Speaker 9: better fighter?
- 27:12Speaker 10: Uh? It just it just made me realize that obviously
- 27:16Speaker 10: I wasn't doing everything I needed to do to be
- 27:19Speaker 10: a complete champion.
- 27:20Speaker 5: You gotta think I was.
- 27:22Speaker 7: I just turned twenty four.
- 27:24Speaker 10: I'm looking at myself already as world champ on top
- 27:27Speaker 10: of the world, being ready to beat this big money
- 27:30Speaker 10: guy or whatever the case may be. But it made me,
- 27:34Speaker 10: It made me buckle down, It humbled me and made
- 27:37Speaker 10: me sit down and really do my work and really
- 27:40Speaker 10: be a student of the game. Adapt everything and again
- 27:45Speaker 10: that they ain't gonna get nothing to you.
- 27:46Speaker 4: You gotta go take it.
- 27:48Speaker 5: And that's what I adapted.
- 27:49Speaker 10: That's when I changed my That's when I made my
- 27:51Speaker 10: name my nickname the Reaper officially, and I took on
- 27:55Speaker 10: that Monica as I can't take note for a answer
- 27:58Speaker 10: no more.
- 27:59Speaker 9: You know, I thought about that too, because I saw
- 28:01Speaker 9: Javonte's train and say that Tank's biggest fear is losing,
- 28:05Speaker 9: And I wonder if it's too much pressure to keep
- 28:08Speaker 9: up an undefeated record, And where did that mentality come from?
- 28:11Speaker 8: With it?
- 28:12Speaker 5: Floyd?
- 28:12Speaker 6: Like, now, when you train, right, like, is it a
- 28:18Speaker 6: part of your process to like study the o a
- 28:22Speaker 6: fighter like you studies?
- 28:23Speaker 7: Okay, so what would you say, is Tank's biggest weakness?
- 28:27Speaker 7: We got we're gonna see. I can't tell you right
- 28:31Speaker 7: now because he might.
- 28:32Speaker 5: See this, but but we got a few.
- 28:36Speaker 7: We got a few, and the things that he does
- 28:39Speaker 7: well is important too.
- 28:41Speaker 5: Well, you know what you could do.
- 28:42Speaker 1: You could tell us offline and then when you win,
- 28:46Speaker 1: we'll say, oh yeah, he told.
- 28:49Speaker 2: Let's ask Brock.
- 28:50Speaker 3: I mean, what do you think tanks weaknesses and what
- 28:53Speaker 3: do you think roaches weaknesses?
- 28:56Speaker 12: Analyze Box Well, I'm not gonna talk about his weaknesses
- 28:59Speaker 12: right right in front, but listen, I would as far
- 29:08Speaker 12: as Tank, I mean, I would say Charlotte pointed to
- 29:11Speaker 12: earlier where he starts late, right, he loses rounds early
- 29:14Speaker 12: in the fight because he's relying on that, you know,
- 29:17Speaker 12: one hit of quitter, which Deonta did as well a lot.
- 29:20Speaker 8: So I think that Tank has a skill to start earlier.
- 29:23Speaker 8: I mean, I would say that that was one one
- 29:26Speaker 8: of the things that I feel like that he should
- 29:27Speaker 8: tell all the change.
- 29:28Speaker 7: Now you better not start label me a long night,
- 29:32Speaker 7: a real long night.
- 29:33Speaker 1: I don't really think Tank has weaknesses. I've seen him
- 29:35Speaker 1: get frustrated back in twenty seventeen, right, and that's a weakness,
- 29:39Speaker 1: But I haven't seen that, I think so so, But
- 29:43Speaker 1: since then, I haven't seen that. At some point in
- 29:47Speaker 1: and I could tell you he had weaknesses when I
- 29:49Speaker 1: seen him fight Jamel Herring, But I don't see that
- 29:51Speaker 1: now you get what I'm saying. So I seen them
- 29:53Speaker 1: both what weaknesses as you're saying what we did the
- 29:56Speaker 1: same thing about starting late. They both did the same
- 29:59Speaker 1: thing about starting late. And he wasn't being first playing.
- 30:01Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I'm telling him I'm not
- 30:04Speaker 1: a chump. You know what I'm saying. I don't mean
- 30:05Speaker 1: I'm not calling him saying that.
- 30:12Speaker 11: I'm.
- 30:17Speaker 5: Amazing.
- 30:17Speaker 1: You wasn't trying to be first when you should have
- 30:19Speaker 1: been first. That's all I'm trying to say. That's so,
- 30:21Speaker 1: don't wait the counter whatever you think. You're slicking your
- 30:23Speaker 1: hand and all of that. You wasn't trying to be first.
- 30:26Speaker 1: But I see you different now, corner something.
- 30:31Speaker 2: I also do notice that, you know, and I'm a
- 30:33Speaker 2: casual boxer, right, so I like boxing.
- 30:41Speaker 4: Tank back in the day.
- 30:42Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying. Be coming more of a
- 30:44Speaker 5: fight then, yeah, yeah yeah, but.
- 30:46Speaker 1: So yeah this fight.
- 30:48Speaker 3: You guys haven't got too disrespectful with each other. Usually
- 30:51Speaker 3: I see disrespect out the windows, your mother, your kids,
- 30:54Speaker 3: all that. I haven't seen that with this one.
- 30:56Speaker 5: Why is that cool?
- 30:59Speaker 1: Played to damn much like.
- 31:02Speaker 10: He a trolled up and I troll back. That's the
- 31:05Speaker 10: thing like Andy troll back, I t so like I
- 31:14Speaker 10: never so I never for anyone that's in obviously of
- 31:19Speaker 10: his like stature and as a stardom. But we follow
- 31:24Speaker 10: each other like we see like you know what I'm saying,
- 31:26Speaker 10: We see each other ship. I already know he hatrolled,
- 31:29Speaker 10: so I know what they expect. Some people know that
- 31:32Speaker 10: I am a troll and I can be funny or
- 31:34Speaker 10: I could be funny on the socials for sure, and
- 31:36Speaker 10: I'm going to have a comeback for whatever you got.
- 31:38Speaker 1: So that's the thing.
- 31:40Speaker 10: Like it's a little different because we're fighting each other now,
- 31:43Speaker 10: so like imagine me, I see everything that he do
- 31:46Speaker 10: to troll everybody else. And and the other thing is
- 31:49Speaker 10: they be having like he'd definitely be having personal vendettas
- 31:53Speaker 10: with other people or people be having personal vandetas with him,
- 31:55Speaker 10: like they really be having like issues.
- 31:58Speaker 4: He don't like him, But it.
- 31:59Speaker 8: Was like, don't you know I don't like he said
- 32:02Speaker 8: he has said disrespectful things about.
- 32:09Speaker 4: Woman.
- 32:10Speaker 5: You expect.
- 32:11Speaker 7: I mean, that's just that's who he is in your
- 32:12Speaker 7: wild cards.
- 32:13Speaker 4: Like and obviously if you don't respect Baltimore first, respect.
- 32:18Speaker 1: For men and women.
- 32:24Speaker 8: Take super disrespectful on Twitter going in. But yeah, you're
- 32:28Speaker 8: right and me, there hasn't been too much disrespect. I mean,
- 32:31Speaker 8: what's the most disrespectful thing a fighters ever said you?
- 32:35Speaker 7: I know, because they don't be I don't get that
- 32:38Speaker 7: and they don't get that to me, they be not.
- 32:41Speaker 5: I don't really play like that.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Take scared of your trollness?
- 32:44Speaker 5: Control better.
- 32:45Speaker 10: No, I just think it's just like a level of
- 32:47Speaker 10: mutual respect, like for real, for real, if you want
- 32:51Speaker 10: to keep it a butt outside of this, if we
- 32:54Speaker 10: have if we ain't fight, he the homie. So I mean,
- 32:58Speaker 10: it's not like we ain't never talk about out fighting.
- 33:00Speaker 5: Before we talked about did you like go out?
- 33:04Speaker 10: Yes, that's what I'm saying. I've seen him as a
- 33:07Speaker 10: as as we've been professional. I've seen him more times
- 33:09Speaker 10: outside than I've seen him in a boxing environment.
- 33:13Speaker 4: You know, he col I saw him label you.
- 33:17Speaker 9: He said that you and Bud would be actual challenges,
- 33:19Speaker 9: he said, like HAINI I think he said Stevens and
- 33:22Speaker 9: Davids would be light work, but he actually.
- 33:24Speaker 4: Said you and Bud would be challenges. What do you
- 33:26Speaker 4: think of that? When you heard he tell the truth?
- 33:29Speaker 7: When it comes to me, he telling the.
- 33:30Speaker 5: Truth, not when it comes to but not when to
- 33:33Speaker 5: come to But yeah, I think he's telling.
- 33:35Speaker 4: The truth too.
- 33:35Speaker 10: I mean, obviously he's big and one of the best
- 33:38Speaker 10: prices in the world. But yeah, when it comes specifically
- 33:43Speaker 10: when it come to me. Yeah, Like and I think
- 33:45Speaker 10: people trying to say, Okay, he lying to sell the
- 33:48Speaker 10: fight or whatever the case.
- 33:50Speaker 3: Be, Na like this this is a real So what
- 33:53Speaker 3: do you say to tank fans like Jess like that
- 33:57Speaker 3: that don't believe in you, that I don't think you're
- 33:59Speaker 3: gonna win, you might get knocked out, you got an accent,
- 34:04Speaker 3: you know what do you say that those type of
- 34:05Speaker 3: fans like yes, like a just right now.
- 34:09Speaker 10: Because because I would get a little like because people
- 34:12Speaker 10: get behind them keyboards, they getting a little disrespect.
- 34:16Speaker 5: That I never said nothing about you.
- 34:30Speaker 2: You don't even talking like that.
- 34:32Speaker 1: She said something about about.
- 34:38Speaker 5: But no, this is the thing I said.
- 34:39Speaker 2: I didn't know you.
- 34:41Speaker 6: I didn't know who you was until you and uh
- 34:44Speaker 6: so yeah, until you know what I mean, that's all
- 34:46Speaker 6: I said.
- 34:47Speaker 7: And I say you're gonna beat you, just because.
- 34:49Speaker 5: That's my man respect.
- 34:53Speaker 10: I go to man, A lot of people are gonna
- 34:56Speaker 10: be like, I don't know who he is. So he's
- 34:58Speaker 10: gonna do He's gonna get knock now, he gonna do this.
- 35:01Speaker 10: He's gonna be sleep. You need to get a pillow.
- 35:03Speaker 10: I see that ship, obviously, I see that Ship's my phone,
- 35:06Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. Like, but it's just like
- 35:10Speaker 10: I don't know about boxing.
- 35:12Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 35:13Speaker 5: I don't.
- 35:16Speaker 4: Breakdown fight beyond.
- 35:20Speaker 1: Breaking that whole round.
- 35:23Speaker 6: Yeah, but listen with you being all right, So do
- 35:27Speaker 6: you ever feel with this man says on it when
- 35:29Speaker 6: people like the underdog conversation, like does that affect you?
- 35:33Speaker 6: Does that really piss you off? Because you step right
- 35:35Speaker 6: up to fight him. I mean it wasn't like he
- 35:37Speaker 6: had to troll you to get him to fight.
- 35:39Speaker 5: Yeah, nah, for sure.
- 35:40Speaker 10: But that's what I'm in there for. I'm here to
- 35:41Speaker 10: fight the best. I want to be the best. That's
- 35:43Speaker 10: what really drives my whole career. Like I got in
- 35:47Speaker 10: this to be the best.
- 35:48Speaker 7: So if he's a pan for talent, what they gonna
- 35:53Speaker 7: think about me when I when I win?
- 35:55Speaker 8: So if you do beat Tank and then fight and
- 35:57Speaker 8: reimagine beat him again, obviously you want to fight the
- 35:59Speaker 8: other champs at one thirty five. Let's say that scenario happens,
- 36:03Speaker 8: and Chicourt should be on your you know, one of
- 36:06Speaker 8: your talks. Who do you think it's a harder fight
- 36:09Speaker 8: Tank or Kur for yourself stylistically?
- 36:13Speaker 1: Yeah, that's told y'all fifty fifty fights.
- 36:20Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good question. Cool bad boy man.
- 36:25Speaker 7: I mean I've been in the ring with him more
- 36:26Speaker 7: than recent more than recently.
- 36:28Speaker 5: She cool bad boy.
- 36:29Speaker 4: You don't get the credit used there, you ask me everybody.
- 36:32Speaker 10: I mean, it's just the outside looking in and then
- 36:34Speaker 10: they're comparing him to a knockout all this that's not fit.
- 36:39Speaker 5: You know, it's just not fit. I don't know, Cour,
- 36:43Speaker 5: it seemed like leaking to be in a more difficult fight.
- 36:47Speaker 5: Maybe damn.
- 36:49Speaker 9: I want to ask you about that, right when you're
- 36:50Speaker 9: dealing with a knockout artist like Tank and Tank maybe not?
- 36:54Speaker 1: Maybe, I don't know.
- 36:56Speaker 5: You gotta sell the fight.
- 36:57Speaker 7: Yeah, no, No, it's not that I don't fight. It's
- 36:59Speaker 7: just being realistic, like you know, you gotta do.
- 37:01Speaker 5: You gotta compare a dangerous point.
- 37:03Speaker 7: You gotta compare the tendents obviously got ninety ratio.
- 37:09Speaker 5: Alert at all times out that entire a lot of
- 37:11Speaker 5: people don't.
- 37:12Speaker 7: Give him this credit of him being a skillful fighter.
- 37:15Speaker 10: He's really supercrity, got a bag with him, like and
- 37:18Speaker 10: y'all gonna see it man, because he ain't gonna have
- 37:20Speaker 10: no choice but to use it.
- 37:22Speaker 5: Is just he's just the skills, you know, like the
- 37:25Speaker 5: credit he gets for a knockout. He's just that skills
- 37:28Speaker 5: like people. People don't know that.
- 37:31Speaker 9: When you got to knockout, all this coming at you
- 37:33Speaker 9: and he said he want to knock you out between
- 37:34Speaker 9: six and eight rounds, tell you that.
- 37:39Speaker 5: Right now, I'll tell you what is there any level
- 37:42Speaker 5: of fear of that at all? What I just say.
- 37:46Speaker 8: But listen as far as betting, right yesterday, we were
- 37:48Speaker 8: looking at odds and in order for you to win
- 37:52Speaker 8: one hundred bucks, you gotta bet four hundred the tech
- 37:56Speaker 8: knocks you out.
- 37:57Speaker 5: So I never see odds like that, like you gotta
- 37:59Speaker 5: bet so much to win so little. So essentially essentially
- 38:03Speaker 5: saying you are definitely getting knocked out. That's what the
- 38:05Speaker 5: odd makers are saying. It's crazy. So you bet.
- 38:08Speaker 7: Did you see the odds for the heck the fight?
- 38:11Speaker 8: No?
- 38:12Speaker 5: Oh no, it was.
- 38:12Speaker 1: It was bigger though bigger than that.
- 38:14Speaker 10: It was bigger, so obviously we cleaned up that night.
- 38:20Speaker 10: It's gonna be a repeat. I'm telling you right now, people.
- 38:23Speaker 5: Gonna make some money. You better yourself.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Yes, of course, is that illegal? I don't know. He's
- 38:30Speaker 1: just joking. If that's legal, I'm.
- 38:31Speaker 11: Not gonna lie.
- 38:32Speaker 4: You do have a level of confidence that make me
- 38:33Speaker 4: feel like we put a couple of dos.
- 38:41Speaker 1: I told them in the green room, like I've seen
- 38:43Speaker 1: Summer Tinks. Opponents even though they talk, smacked me a.
- 38:47Speaker 5: Little shaky, shaky, not him real.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Oh be more.
- 38:53Speaker 5: What I'm just saying, want a couple of dollars?
- 38:58Speaker 1: Do you do you try to and I.
- 38:59Speaker 9: Mean, of course you're gonna engage, but do you rely
- 39:01Speaker 9: on your defense more and try to out box tank
- 39:04Speaker 9: or do you go in there and mix it up.
- 39:06Speaker 10: It's gonna be it's gonna be mixed up, for sure,
- 39:08Speaker 10: it's gonna be mixed up. We're gonna we're gonna we're
- 39:12Speaker 10: gonna apply pressure. We're gonna be smart, we're gonna be defensive,
- 39:16Speaker 10: We're gonna do everything. We're gonna do everything. We're gonna
- 39:18Speaker 10: make him perform at his best. We're gonna make him
- 39:22Speaker 10: perform at his best. We're gonna make him think We're
- 39:24Speaker 10: gonna make him feel pressure. We're gonna make him feel like,
- 39:27Speaker 10: all right, I gotta get get out the way of
- 39:29Speaker 10: this ship because I ain't gonna lie. I'm when I
- 39:33Speaker 10: tell you, I really be trying to knock everybody out.
- 39:35Speaker 10: It's not just like me going crazy. But if I can,
- 39:38Speaker 10: I'm gonna try to set it up.
- 39:41Speaker 7: I like to hear that too, because I ain't gonna lie.
- 39:43Speaker 6: Tank, my man, But I got tired of paying money
- 39:46Speaker 6: for the fights, and it's over too fast for the fight,
- 39:50Speaker 6: and by the time I got in there, it was
- 39:52Speaker 6: the one in Atlanta.
- 39:52Speaker 7: By the time I got in there, it was over,
- 39:54Speaker 7: so I was pissed.
- 39:55Speaker 5: So you better make him work for it.
- 39:57Speaker 7: Okay, it's gonna be worth for your money.
- 39:59Speaker 1: One of the criticisms is that you know you're a
- 40:01Speaker 1: champ at a lower weight class, so they say, oh,
- 40:03Speaker 1: Tank picking on somebody smaller. But fight night, do you
- 40:07Speaker 1: think you're gonna be the bigger man in the ring?
- 40:10Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, I am.
- 40:11Speaker 10: I mean if people know him and people see me,
- 40:13Speaker 10: or even if people know me and people know him,
- 40:16Speaker 10: they know that he a little guy like he fight
- 40:19Speaker 10: at the weight class because it's he's comfortable and he
- 40:22Speaker 10: doesn't have to struggle to struggle to make weight. You
- 40:25Speaker 10: be killing yourself to make it. Okay, but you just
- 40:29Speaker 10: it's definitely likes. It requires more discipline for me, especially
- 40:33Speaker 10: to make one thirty.
- 40:35Speaker 4: What do you think think's most difficult fight has been
- 40:36Speaker 4: so far? Cruise right?
- 40:38Speaker 5: Definitely right, I would say so sec.
- 40:44Speaker 7: I mean he was so frustrating it.
- 40:46Speaker 1: Yeah, but but he wasn't on top of his game early.
- 40:49Speaker 1: He wasn't on top of his game, on top of
- 40:51Speaker 1: his game right now. No, No, I just mean in
- 40:53Speaker 1: that fight, I think he was just playing around too
- 40:55Speaker 1: much and just trying to get a spectacle and not
- 40:57Speaker 1: really thinking.
- 40:58Speaker 5: Like what was tough. But he did have a hand
- 41:01Speaker 5: injury and after.
- 41:03Speaker 1: Pretty late in the fight, like the tenth round. It
- 41:06Speaker 1: was the tenth round. People say earlier, but it was
- 41:08Speaker 1: a tenth round. So it was just a tough fight
- 41:09Speaker 1: because tough Pimple was a tougher boone.
- 41:11Speaker 9: When you studying Lama, which which fights do you watch?
- 41:14Speaker 9: Do you watch the ones that were tough for him
- 41:16Speaker 9: or do you just watch them all both.
- 41:18Speaker 7: I watched the ones that are tough. I mean I
- 41:21Speaker 7: watched the ones that you see that he because he.
- 41:26Speaker 5: Knocked out damn near everybody.
- 41:27Speaker 10: But you take away certain stuff from a lot of things,
- 41:32Speaker 10: like from the Frank Martin fight, even though I think
- 41:35Speaker 10: that fight was fairly easy.
- 41:38Speaker 7: It's just little stuff like tendencies that you have.
- 41:41Speaker 10: It's like stuff you pick up on, like, oh, he
- 41:43Speaker 10: always does this when he does this, and you can't
- 41:46Speaker 10: rely on it because it's what he used to do.
- 41:49Speaker 10: You can read it, but you could read certain certain stuff,
- 41:52Speaker 10: especially like little second nature things like little twitches like
- 41:56Speaker 10: how he reacts to a certain punch or how he
- 41:58Speaker 10: moves after he does a combination.
- 42:01Speaker 7: Or whatever the case be, just naturally, like how many
- 42:03Speaker 7: times he doesn't and stuff.
- 42:04Speaker 10: Like that.
- 42:07Speaker 1: About a little bit. So that's you studying these these
- 42:10Speaker 1: tapes or is that your and the mastermind back both.
- 42:15Speaker 5: I got.
- 42:15Speaker 1: So this is the biggest fight of your life for sure,
- 42:19Speaker 1: to find your career.
- 42:22Speaker 10: I always say that this is because I'm an win.
- 42:24Speaker 10: But this is the start of my legacy run. You
- 42:27Speaker 10: know how You know how fighters who who you know
- 42:31Speaker 10: gonna be in the Hall of Fame have that distinctive
- 42:34Speaker 10: start of their run.
- 42:36Speaker 1: This could be it.
- 42:37Speaker 5: This, this is gonna be it.
- 42:38Speaker 10: This is gonna be especially because you know, he talking
- 42:42Speaker 10: about retiring and all that. I don't I think it's
- 42:46Speaker 10: gonna be hard for him to get back in the
- 42:47Speaker 10: ring if you lose, because he's already talking about retirement.
- 42:53Speaker 10: So if we do have two fights, that's damn trouw
- 42:56Speaker 10: gonna be my legacy run because.
- 43:02Speaker 7: We have two we have two fights.
- 43:04Speaker 10: Whereas you got this knockout all this that's a pad
- 43:08Speaker 10: talent that people are saying is one of the and
- 43:11Speaker 10: and not saying who is one of the biggest spectacles
- 43:15Speaker 10: in boxing right now?
- 43:16Speaker 7: If I beat him twice then go on to unify.
- 43:19Speaker 10: No matter what win or lose, I'm still fighting the
- 43:22Speaker 10: best fights and and always I'm always gonna put out
- 43:26Speaker 10: I'm always it's always gonna be it's always gonna be
- 43:30Speaker 10: a dance like especially if if I got a good
- 43:32Speaker 10: dance part in in there with me, It's always gonna
- 43:34Speaker 10: be a good fight. So this is the this, this,
- 43:38Speaker 10: this fight is defining the start of my legacy run.
- 43:41Speaker 10: And that's why I want to go off to my
- 43:43Speaker 10: Hall of Fame. I want to go up to forty
- 43:45Speaker 10: and fight too.

- 43:50Speaker 5: Before we got the tank.
- 43:52Speaker 1: Ryo is the guy that beat Pitt Bull.
- 43:57Speaker 5: So hall of Fame.
