- 1:46Are you sticking your thumb? No.
- 1:51Errol ChatGPT has already cut me off from making videos tonight
- 1:55so I can't do this speedy. This is too graphic.
- 1:58Yeah, it might be coming. Anyways, we call this segment
- 2:01Call Your shot. I'm not an X's and O's guy,
- 2:04right? I'm not a tactician.
- 2:05I'm a motivator in the classic sense of the word.
- 2:08You know, Lombardi, Charles Lindbergh, that nun over in
- 2:10India, like those people call your shot.
- 2:13All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is very simple how we play
- 2:18this game. We're going to tell you a story
- 2:21and what we're going to do is we're going to call it.
- 2:23It might never happen, but it might.
- 2:25And we could go back and say I was right.
- 2:29So we're going to tell you where we're calling a shot and what
- 2:33sport or even something, maybe something on Netflix.
- 2:36That could be a number one big show on Netflix.
- 2:38I don't know, whatever, we're going to call our shots.
- 2:41All right, tonight we're going to go speedy fish me.
- 2:45Here we go. All right, so I'm gonna go to
- 2:46college basketball for this one. So 2 trends that I'm going to
- 2:49reference for this one. The hottest team in going into
- 2:52the NCAA tournament almost never wins.
- 2:54And in the last 10 years worth of defending champions have not
- 2:58escaped the second round outside of UConn when they want
- 3:01back-to-back championship. So I'm going to call my shot on
- 3:04taking taking out the Florida Gators in the first weekend
- 3:07against an 8 or 9C. There's a lot of good ones.
- 3:09I you can see NC State, a very good team on the rise with Will
- 3:12Wade there. UCLA, Johnny was talking about
- 3:15them a few weeks ago. Very balanced overall team.
- 3:17You got a talented team in Kentucky.
- 3:19Those are just the 8 seas and then the seven seas.
- 3:20We talked about Villanova last week.
- 3:22George is an interesting one. Miami is an interesting one.
- 3:25A lot of teams that could take him out I think in the second
- 3:26round. So I will say defending champion
- 3:28Florida keeps that trend going of defending champions not doing
- 3:32well next year and out in the second round.
- 3:35All right, Speedy, That's a good one.
- 3:36I am going to go to my beloved New York Football Giants.
- 3:40I'm calling it right now, Errol. I know what the Giants are going
- 3:43to do at the top of the draft in April.
- 3:46This is what's going to happen. The Giants currently are sitting
- 3:49at #5 they are not going to draft at #5 They are going to
- 3:53make a deal with the New Orleans Saints, who are not going to be
- 3:56patient enough to wait for Carnell Tate to fall to them.
- 4:00They will move up to 5, trade back to 8 where they will select
- 4:04Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles and make him the linchpin
- 4:10of John Harbaugh defense that will win championships.
- 4:13In the near future, somebody. Drugs.
- 4:17Is this the first call your shot where you've taken back another
- 4:20call? Your shot because you said Caleb
- 4:21Downs the first time. Yeah, well I do want to say
- 4:26this. I was looking at the newer mock
- 4:27wrap. We all say that Styles is a top
- 4:31five worthy guy even though maybe the production in college
- 4:34wasn't like super elite. That combine he did wasn't just
- 4:38the other stuff like on the field, it was also the
- 4:41interviews. Apparently he's one of the best
- 4:43interviewers at the combine. I would worry.
- 4:46I would worry if I'm picking styles as my number one first
- 4:50round. Bet trade back you get like
- 4:52you'd probably get like a second this year and probably like 1/3
- 4:56next year. That's.
- 4:57A lot trading down 3 and you're going to get a second and third.
- 4:59For the same for the guy that you wanted in the 1st place,
- 5:03right? They're not going to take AD
- 5:04end. Why are the Saints?
- 5:06Why are the Saints going to move?
- 5:07Up. That's what I was going to ask.
- 5:08Like who? Do you think because there's I
- 5:10think people want Tate? I think so.
- 5:12We haven't talked about it, but Tate has.
- 5:15The reason you said like the the numbers, people are shouting
- 5:18down Tate, Tate has these. I forget what the stat is,
- 5:21Speedy, you might know the advanced analytic, but it's
- 5:23something about how good his hands are.
- 5:26His hands are the best they've ever measured as far as how good
- 5:29at catching the ball he is. Who was the guy that came out
- 5:33recently? He had like a 70 something
- 5:35percent is one of the top guys drafted in the last couple of
- 5:38years. He makes him look like nothing.
- 5:40He's like in the 80s. No one's ever been in the 80s.
- 5:43Apparently. His hands are going to be like a
- 5:4599 Madden rating. Carnell Tate.
- 5:47I don't see the Saints moving up to get him.
- 5:49I, I don't think they have to honestly.
- 5:52That's just my opinion. He's going to be a top ten pick
- 5:54and I, I think there are quite a few teams.
- 5:57I don't see any other team thinking wide receiver besides
- 6:00the Saints or the Giants. So I I think he'll fall to them
- 6:05if they want them. And it doesn't look like Love's
- 6:06going to be the guy. I think Love could fall out all
- 6:10the way to 15 or 16. I really think that could
- 6:12happen. And if if I were The Jets at 16
- 6:15and he falls to them, you cannot not draft this kid.
- 6:18So because he's that explosive, he could be a game changing
- 6:22back. All right.
- 6:23And our final call, your shot. We'll go to the Minnesota Wild.
- 6:28Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I think this is the best team in
- 6:32hockey right now. I think watching Matt Boldy do
- 6:36what he did in the in the Olympics and having Quinn Hughes
- 6:40and they've got a loaded team from top to bottom and they've
- 6:43got great goaltending. They they're just loaded from
- 6:47top to bottom. I don't think there's any teams
- 6:50in this division or in this conference besides Colorado that
- 6:55can challenge that depth. And I think they're better than
- 6:58Colorado. I think they have better goal
- 6:59tanning in Colorado. And I think they're I think
- 7:02they're just better coached. So my prediction is the
- 7:06Minnesota Wild comes out of the Western Conference.
- 7:11And here's another prediction. Minnesota wins the Stanley Cup
- 7:15this year. Yes, the Minnesota Wild comes
- 7:18out of the West. Everybody has Colorado and
- 7:21Dallas and all these other team and Minnesota's there.
- 7:24Minnesota's better than all. And here's another prediction.
- 7:27Minnesota matches up against Colorado.
- 7:28They beat him in six. So give me Minnesota to win the
- 7:33Stanley Cup this year. Yeah, it's it's crazy.
- 7:36I'm looking at Minnesota right now.
- 7:38The talent from top to bottom, It's it's kind of ridiculous
- 7:42after they got Quinton Hughes and they stole Quinton Hughes
- 7:44away from Vancouver. I mean stole them.
- 7:46I and I don't understand some of the Vancouver moves over the
- 7:49years. Bo Horvat.
- 7:50I mean, how bad was that trade? I mean, come on, a Bo Horvat is
- 7:54the best face off guy right now in the NHL.
- 7:56He's the best. Hey Errol, if Bill Garin and and
- 8:00you're right in Minnesota and they win the Wild win.
- 8:02Is this the greatest year a hockey executives ever had?
- 8:06It's a good question. Medal in Stanley Cup.
- 8:08Well, I mean, we can't really compare it because United States
- 8:11hasn't won, won a gold medal since 46 years ago.
- 8:15So I, I, I, I'll tell you this, Bill Garan is a, a very clever
- 8:20hockey mind. He was a great hockey player.
- 8:23I, I, I think people forget how good Bill Garan was.
- 8:26He was a 300 gold scorer. He played for those Devil
- 8:29championships. I think he won 2 Stanley Cups
- 8:31out of the three that they won. I, I mean, Bill Garen was a good
- 8:34player. And I, I, and also I met Bill
- 8:38Garen a couple of times too. One of the nicer, you know,
- 8:40hockey personalities you'll ever meet.
- 8:43Very straightforward, very collective.
- 8:45He knows his stuff. So I, I like it.
- 8:48It might be, it might be. And Bill Garen was on the hot
- 8:50seat going into the season. But think about that.
- 8:53I mean, Quinn used just making that trade and getting Quinn
- 8:56used, I mean, it was a steal. I, I don't know how he got that.
- 8:59I was at Quinn Hughes, his draft and I look at Quinn Hughes, they
- 9:03say he's like, I think he say he's 510.
- 9:05He's not 5-10 guys. He's not even close.
- 9:08I think there was something I saw saying too that I think the
- 9:11wild of the first team that have traded for 2 captains at 1 trade
- 9:14deadline or at one season. Obviously Hughes was early in
- 9:17the season and they think the last five that did that made the
- 9:20Stanley. Cup Quinn Hughes at best is 5/8,
- 9:24at best is 5/8 and maybe 5-10 on skates, if that's what they say.
- 9:29He's a he's a small dude, man. He's small, but he's such a good
- 9:33hockey player, really smart hockey player and fun to watch.
- 9:36By the way, him and his brother Jack and their other brothers
- 9:40pretty damn good too. We'll see what happens in the
- 9:41near future with the Devils. Do they move him?
- 9:44Because the Devils need some pieces something right now.
- 9:47So anyways, all right, we call this caged Din MMA jerk.
- 9:52Why did you take your pants off? This is Cajun MMA and ladies and
- 10:06gentlemen, we have my partner in crime for USC conversation, Mr.
- 10:12Jake. If you don't know him, he has
- 10:14been with us for a couple of months.
- 10:17He was one of our interns and he was one of the more
- 10:20knowledgeable UFC guys we've ever had on this show, so I'm
- 10:23happy to have Jake every time we talk UFC.
- 10:26In UFC 326 main event on Saturday night, Charles Olivara
- 10:31defeats Max Holloway in five rounds, winning by unanimous to
- 10:36capture the first ever BMF belt championship.
- 10:40Well, his first BMF championship.
- 10:42Oliveira got takedowns in all 5 rounds of the match while
- 10:47Holloway had nothing, had done nothing, didn't even attempt to
- 10:53take down Oliveira who controlled the fight.
- 10:57It was Olivera's 25th UFC win, surpassing Neil Magny for sole
- 11:04possession of second most ever and now trails only Jim Miller.
- 11:10Yes Jim Miller. I remember Jim Miller who holds
- 11:13the record of 27 despite Olivera's win.
- 11:15Dana White and the UFC got backlash from other fighters for
- 11:20who felt who felt Olivera's grappling style made the BMF
- 11:25belt title more boring, including boxer Ryan Garcia and
- 11:29UFC champion Nate Diaz. Garcia claims that the UFC
- 11:33should just got rid of the BMF belt if the fights are going to
- 11:38look like it was, you know, it was like that, by the way.
- 11:42And Diaz tweeted jokingly. This is who's coming for my
- 11:47belt. Yeah.
- 11:49When he himself never held the title despite being part of the
- 11:54creation of the 2000 of of 2019 when they.
- 11:58When he lost against Jorge Masvidal in UFC244, Masvidal
- 12:02never defended the title And in 2023, after retiring, Justin
- 12:08Gagey beat Dustin Poirier for the vacant title before dropping
- 12:14it for the net for next year to Holloway, who defended it
- 12:19successfully against Poirier. Now the title is Oliveira's.
- 12:24There is a belief that Conor McGregor could be Oliveira's
- 12:28next opponent, especially if Gagey upsets Ilya at the UFC
- 12:33White House event. Benoit Saint Denis or Armand
- 12:38Sarukian are potential options as well.
- 12:42So let's get into it. Let's get into the Oliveira
- 12:44fight because really, this car was absolutely pathetic.
- 12:47The UFC selling this and and I I think it's good that it's on
- 12:50Paramount because if you're, if you or if you have paramount,
- 12:54you don't have to pay, you know, 7080 dollars what these fights
- 12:58were going for. And I think the UFC made a
- 13:00really good deal with Paramount to help some of these fans out
- 13:03and getting the chance to watch some of these pay per views.
- 13:06The only fight worth watching was this was the Oliveira and
- 13:10Max Holloway. But was it this And I, I, I
- 13:14wrote a story on the Worldwide Sports Radio Network.
- 13:16You can go check it out whenever you have a chance.
- 13:18I gave you my take from round to round on the way.
- 13:21I looked at this this fight and I agree with Ryan Garcia.
- 13:25I also agree with Nate Diaz. When you look at both fighters,
- 13:31Oliveira is not a BMF fighter. He he could stand up, he could
- 13:35stand with the best of you, but you knew what he was going to do
- 13:38against Max Holloway. Max Holloway is one of the best
- 13:40stand up fighters the UFC has. He's a great boxer.
- 13:43He throws some of the best combinations you'll ever see
- 13:46AUFC fighter throw. And we never got a chance to see
- 13:50it because really early in the fight, Olivera's game plan was,
- 13:55you know, throw leg kicks, give him a couple of kicks, draw him
- 13:58in so he can take him down. And I think there was a lot of
- 14:02cage holding, which the I think Herb Dean allowed.
- 14:07I wasn't Herb Dean. I don't know if it was Herb
- 14:08Dean. Was it Herb Dean?
- 14:09I wasn't. I forget who the referee was,
- 14:11but whoever was the referee of the fight allowed a lot of cage
- 14:15holding. I thought both Max Holloway and
- 14:19Oliveira were grabbing the cage a lot.
- 14:21There should have been points deducted in the fight.
- 14:24I just thought that if you're going to set up ABMF fight, you
- 14:27want to see a just engage, you want to see a Max Holloway, you
- 14:31want to see the guys that will stand up and pound.
- 14:34That's what does BMF stand for. Bad mother fucker.
- 14:38That's what it sounds for and and and Nate Diaz and Ryan
- 14:41Garcia says said it right. I think that the UFC needs to
- 14:44figure out what they're going to do with this belt because you
- 14:46cannot let Oliveira hold this belt.
- 14:49You cannot. If he fights like this, he'll
- 14:51never lose the belt. Who's he matching up against
- 14:54really? Saint Denis?
- 14:56St. Denis is just like Oliveira.
- 14:58He takes people down and he tries to ground and pound you.
- 15:01Oliveira is one of the greatest ground fighters I've ever seen.
- 15:05His control, ability to hold you on the ground, wrap his legs,
- 15:09the body locks that he put on Max Holloway even.
- 15:12I don't know if anybody watched the fight, but he was doing
- 15:14things that I've never seen a fighter really do.
- 15:17He was using his chin to try. He was dropping his chin on his
- 15:21face to try to open up cuts. I've never seen anything like
- 15:24it. Usually you drop elbows.
- 15:26You're throwing fist or hammer. You know, Howard pound or crap,
- 15:29you know, they call him Hammer fist, but he was dropping his,
- 15:33you know, he's dropping his hip. He was really controlling the
- 15:36fight. I I, I thought it was just
- 15:38complete domination. Max Holloway said it best.
- 15:41He was a better man tonight and he'll he'll be back.
- 15:44But do you want to see this again?
- 15:46Do you want to see Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira Part 3?
- 15:51I don't think so. I think I've seen enough of this
- 15:53Oliveira. I want to see a match up against
- 15:55somebody that's going to keep him on his feet and challenge
- 15:59him. The last fight, Ilio just
- 16:02completely beat the hell out of, you know, beat the hell out of
- 16:06him. And Olivera, I've never seen
- 16:08Olivera get completely dominated like that by anybody.
- 16:11And I don't think there's anybody right now in that weight
- 16:14class that can beat Olivera because Olivera is that good on
- 16:19the ground. Even as you look at right now,
- 16:22Saint Denis. St.
- 16:23Denis is a great fighter and I know he wants to fight for a
- 16:25belt. He doesn't want the BMF title.
- 16:28He doesn't want it, But if he can get a title shot to to get
- 16:31that belt to get a title shot, I think Denis would be the guy
- 16:34that I would, you know, challenge Charles Aliferro
- 16:38against because both guys are great ground fighters.
- 16:41So Rukian is not he's a boring fighter.
- 16:45I, I, I don't, and I know you probably disagree with me.
- 16:49I, I just, I don't know if I would say Sarukian deserves a
- 16:54title, a title shot. Now if it's a BMF title and you
- 16:57want to give Denis and Sarukian to fight for that belt, yes.
- 17:01I, if I'm Charles Olivaro, I don't hold on to the belt.
- 17:03I get rid of the belt. I, I, to me it doesn't fit who
- 17:07he is as a fighter. And as far as Max Holloway is
- 17:10concerned, is this the last time we see Max Holloway Holloway
- 17:15fight at A at a top level? Because Max Holloway looked old
- 17:20in the fight. Say whatever you want.
- 17:23He looked old. Now I understand he fought a
- 17:25world class grappler and a great ground fighter, but he looked
- 17:29like he was being pushed around like a paperweight.
- 17:32I my girlfriend was watching the fight and she doesn't know.
- 17:35She knows Charles Aloe Vera. She knows who these fighters
- 17:37are, but she doesn't really know them.
- 17:38And she said, she told me after the fight, she said this wasn't
- 17:41even a fight was just complete domination.
- 17:43It wasn't. It was just really, and I like
- 17:46Charles Oliver, you, you're, he's a likable person and it
- 17:49says a lot about who he is as a person and as a man that he
- 17:53says, who wouldn't want to see us fight again?
- 17:55And it would be me. I don't want to see that fight
- 17:57again. It was pathetic.
- 17:58And as much as Charles Aravaro want to say, well, it was just
- 18:01me being the better fighter that night, you would have been the
- 18:04better fighter the first time you fought in 2015 if you didn't
- 18:08throw your arm out. OK.
- 18:10I had honestly, this is a complete mismatch and I'm sorry,
- 18:13Max, as good of a fighter as you are, you don't have a really
- 18:17good ground game. You really don't.
- 18:19You're you're a great stand up fighter, but your ground game is
- 18:22weak when you're fighting a guy as good as him.
- 18:24I mean, Jake, what are your thoughts?
- 18:26Yes, there's a lot to unpack there.
- 18:27I think you're right, Errol. I mean, like, I don't think it
- 18:30was just like it was a Max Holloway.
- 18:31I think, I don't think he's too old.
- 18:32I think it was just bad strategy.
- 18:34And like he said it like Oliver was the better fighter that
- 18:36night. I mean, Charles pretty much he
- 18:38blitzed Max at the beginning of every round.
- 18:40He never gave him a shot to, you know, because obviously we
- 18:42everybody knows Max said it himself.
- 18:44He thinks he's the best boxer in the UFC and he always puts
- 18:47volume on his opponents and he just breaks you down over the
- 18:51the rounds of the fight. And you know, even though he
- 18:53does have decent power, it's never been his power that with
- 18:56some fights it's been his volume that he puts on people.
- 18:58And you know, Charles just didn't let it happen.
- 19:00He he blitzed him immediately. He took him down and he was
- 19:03constantly looking for submissions, which, like you
- 19:05said, I mean, he was using so much unorthodox offense on the
- 19:08ground. And I mean, and maybe I can't
- 19:11quite think back to it, but I don't think many people would
- 19:14disagree with you if you said that Charles Olivera is probably
- 19:16the best Brazilian jujitsuist in the UFC.
- 19:19And then of all of mixed martial arts he's ever seen.
- 19:22He's he's so comfortable on the ground.
- 19:23Like even when he gets knocked down, when he's fought guys like
- 19:25Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaichi, he looks more
- 19:28comfortable on the ground. I mean, even against Iliad to
- 19:30Poria, he wanted to stay there because he was always looking
- 19:33for submissions. He's always looking to finish
- 19:34you. And you know, it seems like just
- 19:36Max that he was, you know, he was constantly having to fight
- 19:39off those submissions because Oliveira was constantly trying
- 19:41to get his neck. He was constantly going for face
- 19:43cranks and he just couldn't get, you know, Holloway, like, you
- 19:46know, he I give him a lot of credit.
- 19:47He's not giving up, but he just couldn't get off of him.
- 19:51And it like you said, it was obviously it was a fantastic
- 19:53performance at Oliveira. But for the BMF title, like it's
- 19:57yeah, it's it's definitely the weakest fight for the title ever
- 20:00was. And I do kind of agree with Nate
- 20:02Diaz and Ryan Garcia. Like it's a gimmick belt.
- 20:04So like, even if like it's a cool title again, it's the
- 20:07baddest mother ever, but it doesn't really show much
- 20:11prestige. It's not an undisputed title.
- 20:13And it's really all it is. Like you said, it wasn't that
- 20:15great of a card. It was just a gimmick to get
- 20:17people to want to buy tickets and buy the pay-per-view.
- 20:19And obviously with Paramount now.
- 20:21That doesn't matter as much with pay-per-view sales.
- 20:24But also one second, I don't know if when you were watching
- 20:26this, did the fight go out? What did you get?
- 20:28Like it did it log off of your Paramount?
- 20:30Because I had this personally happen.
- 20:32I was watching with a lot of my friends and during the main
- 20:34event, the fight just shut off. Like we had to try to log back
- 20:37in during the third round. It was miserable.
- 20:39So I got to give a like a a slide of Paramount.
- 20:42That cannot happen ever again. Especially what they did.
- 20:44It happened in the Patty Piplet fight too.
- 20:47Oh, did it really it? Happened in the Patty Pivola
- 20:49fight, yeah. I didn't have to go out for me
- 20:51on that fight. But this fight it went.
- 20:52I mean, to be fair, as you were saying, maybe with this fight we
- 20:55weren't missing much. It was kind of a snooze fest.
- 20:57But that cannot happen during the main event of a car like
- 20:59that is unacceptable. But of all the cards for it to
- 21:02happen, it probably was fine because, again, it was total
- 21:06domination by Charles Olivera. And like you said, and like Nate
- 21:09and Diaz and all them say, like, it's a gimmick belt.
- 21:12It's a cool idea, but it's really there's really no
- 21:15prestige to it other than just to have a cool title in terms
- 21:18like, I don't really know how much it's going to jump Charles
- 21:21Olivera up the lightweight rankings.
- 21:22It's not. Now, personally, yeah, for me, I
- 21:24would love this. I know you're saying there
- 21:26probably isn't many people for him to fight.
- 21:27I would love run back UFC 300, run back Armin Seruke and
- 21:31Charles Olivera too, obviously, because we have UFC Freedom 250,
- 21:35Geichi Taporia for the lightweight title fight.
- 21:38Have those two fight in the title eliminator, have the
- 21:40winner, and if we could line this up perfectly because I know
- 21:43Dan has talked about it, maybe we'll get one more fight on the
- 21:45UFC White House card. If not, have that fight be in
- 21:48July and you could hopefully line up the winner of those two
- 21:51fights at the end of the year, maybe November, December in New
- 21:54York City at Madison Square Garden.
- 21:55I think that would be sweet. But I mean, yeah.
- 21:58And look, for Max Holloway, it was just, I think it was a rough
- 22:00performance for him. He's just going to have to get
- 22:02back in the gym and work on his grappling and wrestling.
- 22:05I mean, like, look, he went against probably the greatest
- 22:07Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighter of all time.
- 22:09So it's it's tough ask. But yeah, I mean, it was just
- 22:12unfortunate because he kind of looked just helpless out there.
- 22:14He looked. Old, he looked old and he throws
- 22:16great combinations. He did he a couple of
- 22:18combinations that he was throwing.
- 22:19You could see that he is the best, better boxer, better stand
- 22:22up fighter. But you knew what Oliveira was
- 22:24going to do. You knew what he was going to
- 22:26how he was he's going to dominate you, especially if he
- 22:28got you against the the gate and, and, and, and, and he did.
- 22:32He just completely dominated the fight and it wasn't even hard
- 22:35when it's he once he blocked his arms around him, it Max Holloway
- 22:39had no answer to him and only had an answer in the fifth round
- 22:43when he got up for the first time.
- 22:44It was really, it was just bad. It was just, it made him look
- 22:48old. Now I do I think Max Holloway
- 22:50will fight again. Yes.
- 22:51He says he wants to come back and and again, Max Holloway is a
- 22:55fan favorite, but he can't fight like that again.
- 22:57He can't go against the guy that is probably just a better ground
- 23:01fighter than you are. And maybe maybe it's matchups,
- 23:04maybe just Olivera is a bad matchup for him.
- 23:06But I do not want to see Charles, Olivera, Olivera and
- 23:10Max Holloway again. I don't want to see it.
- 23:12I don't want. To say, yeah, honestly, it's
- 23:13kind of seems like a similar situation with we got with
- 23:16Makachev and Volkanovsky where just one bad performance and
- 23:19you're probably never going to see that fight again.
- 23:21Like unless Max crate like goes crazy and nuts in his training
- 23:24camp. And if Oliveira is to become the
- 23:26champion again someday and Max ends up getting another chance
- 23:29at it, he's going to have to do a lot of a lot of studying and a
- 23:32lot a lot of hard work to get back to that.
- 23:34Because like, like you said, like it's not really not a
- 23:36fight. We don't need to see that again.
- 23:38But let me ask you for me. Let me ask you.
- 23:40A questions I wanted to go. I wanted to cut you off because
- 23:42I wanted to ask you a question about this.
- 23:44There's Rosa kid now. I think Dana White is.
- 23:49Yeah, he. This.
- 23:53Yeah, this guy, when he got he, when he came into the UFC, he's
- 23:57the youngest UFC fighter. And this guy, he's been force
- 24:00fed by Dana White. He's force feeding this guy.
- 24:04And and yeah, this was a this was he fought a man and it was a
- 24:08great, I mean, he completely dominated him in Rob font.
- 24:11But this this guy, and I'm I'm just saying he's one of the
- 24:16ugliest guys. First of all, ugly, really,
- 24:19really ugly guy. And I understand he's a young
- 24:22guy and they want him to be a young superstar, but he's not a
- 24:25fighter that I want to watch. He he doesn't have any stand up
- 24:29game. He's not a good stand up
- 24:30fighter. He really isn't.
- 24:32He's he's a ground guy. He's a great ground fighter.
- 24:35He's a Mexican kid who likes to take you down and likes to
- 24:38ground and pound you. But stand up.
- 24:40He has no stand up talent whatsoever and he took font down
- 24:45maliciously the whole fight. I think he took him down 17
- 24:48times or something like that. And, and it's just a complete
- 24:51mismatch because I think that Dana wife fed him this guy
- 24:55because he wants this guy to get in the winning ways because he
- 24:58wants to give him a title shot. Yeah, I I think you're
- 25:01definitely right. I mean, they they obviously
- 25:02want, I think the UFC, they're two big markets they're trying
- 25:04to target. They've talked about the Chinese
- 25:06market and well as the Mexican market.
- 25:08So they definitely would love to have his big Mexican superstar.
- 25:10And you know, Raul Rojas Junior, like despite his looks, he is an
- 25:14excellent fighter, great wrestler.
- 25:15I know you said like he doesn't have much of a stand up game,
- 25:18but he's like he said he was the youngest signing in UFC history
- 25:20at the time. So he's got plenty of time to
- 25:22develop that. And like he has to you're like
- 25:25you said, he probably has been force fed easy opponents just to
- 25:28build up his I mean, I believe he's now 11 and one or 12 and
- 25:31one only having the one loss he suffered.
- 25:33But yeah, he's he's pretty much dominated everyone, he said.
- 25:35And I think he knows that himself.
- 25:37That's why he tried to call out someone in the top 10, which
- 25:39would be great. You know, I think Rob Font was
- 25:4213 or 14 in the rankings. But again, he he made quick work
- 25:45of him. Like he just dominated him the
- 25:46whole fight. So it was a good it was a good
- 25:49fight for good performance by Raul Rojas Junior.
- 25:51Personally, I would say give him someone in the top ten, maybe
- 25:54like a Mario, Batista or Davis and Figueredo, just some guys
- 25:57who could put some, you know, hands on him and strike and make
- 25:59him, you know, wary to try to shoot in for takedowns and maybe
- 26:02have to work on his game a little bit.
- 26:04But I think you're right. They definitely are trying to
- 26:06build him up and they've given him some some softballs here and
- 26:09that's. What I hate about the UFC and
- 26:11Rojas is he's a good kid and he's fun to watch when it comes
- 26:15to ground fighting. He's a Brazilian Jiu jitsu
- 26:17artist. He's a black belt.
- 26:18He's fun to watch. But I I to me, I want to see
- 26:21what his stand up game put him against the guy that's going to
- 26:24stand up with him and see what he can do against them.
- 26:26Font he's just to me, he was hand fed.
- 26:28He was like, OK, go beat the hell out of this guy.
- 26:31Go take this guy down. Fight against somebody that is
- 26:34going to compete against you, is going to be able to sprawl
- 26:36against you and is going to be able to challenge you on your
- 26:38feet. Because to me, when Rojas fights
- 26:41a guy that is going to be just as good or even better than him
- 26:45and he's a man is going to kick the crap out of this kid and I'm
- 26:49sorry. Dana can say whatever he wants
- 26:51and he can sell me whatever he wants to sell me.
- 26:53This isn't good for mixed martial arts.
- 26:55This isn't good for the UFC and Kayo Kai.
- 26:58All right, I pronounce pronounce his name Kaiyo.
- 27:02This guy going into the fight against Dee Ritter.
- 27:05Dee Ritter is coming back from an injury.
- 27:07They didn't even know if he was going to be able to come back
- 27:09because he had a some blood problem and De Ritter is a good
- 27:13ground fighter. The problem with this card is
- 27:16you have too many ground fighters.
- 27:18All these guys are specialists on the ground.
- 27:21Rojas de Ritter. I want to see guys that are
- 27:23going to bash their heads in. All these guys, even the
- 27:26Oliveira, he's a ground fighter. Yes, he can stand up.
- 27:29He's a great stand up fighter as well.
- 27:30I'm not saying that Oliveira can't stand up with anybody, but
- 27:33he's going to take you down 90% of the time if he knows you have
- 27:36no ground game. Max Holloway, even though
- 27:38everybody says he's good on the ground and he was good defending
- 27:41certain things and he didn't tap out.
- 27:43Max Holloway to me is not what you call a guy that I want to
- 27:47see against Charles Olivara. I want to see these guys.
- 27:50I want to see the matchups. I want to see the dominant force
- 27:53and and see what these guys, if you put them against an opponent
- 27:56that is not is a mismatch of these guys, how these fights are
- 27:59going to turn up for for a fight of the night, because honestly,
- 28:03there was no fight of the night fight of the.
- 28:04Night Yeah. Well, I think coming into the
- 28:06fight, a lot of people did think because Oliver, even though,
- 28:08again, it was, like you said over 10 years ago, the early
- 28:11fight they had in 2015, and they're both very different
- 28:13fighters from that point then. And you know, big thing with
- 28:16Charles Olivera, everyone always said he had adversity.
- 28:18He faced adversity and he would quit.
- 28:20And I think a lot of people would thought that, you know,
- 28:21maybe Max would have that little bit of a mental, even though
- 28:24again, it was a long time ago, a little bit of a mental edge on
- 28:26him. But they are both completely
- 28:27both different fighters at that point in their careers.
- 28:29You know, Max had become the, you know, featherweight champion
- 28:32now. He had moved up to 155 and he'd
- 28:34been, you know, taking on Justin Gaichi and Dustin Poirier and
- 28:37he'd be growing through these great fighters in the in the
- 28:40lightweight division. And then Olivera had completely
- 28:42built himself back up to be a two time lightweight champion.
- 28:45And I personally, me, I thought that old Holloway was going to
- 28:49have a little bit of edge because I thought he was going
- 28:51to stick and move kind of how he was going with Ilia Zaporia
- 28:54before he got dropped. Stay away from Olivera.
- 28:57Let him come to him and, you know, put volume on him, stick
- 29:00and move. But Olivera just blitzed him
- 29:02right away. And and you know, as soon as he
- 29:03put him in the body triangle, you know, Max, all he could do
- 29:06was really just defend himself because he had no is similar to
- 29:09JDM and Islam and Hamza Chamayev and DDP.
- 29:13You know, just as soon as the grappler took him down, the
- 29:16striker just they, there was no answer to get up.
- 29:18And it was unfortunate because he was just gassed the whole
- 29:20time. And similar to what you were
- 29:22saying with RDR and Kyo Bahalo, like it seemed like after round
- 29:26one, like I know that RDR, there's definitely probably some
- 29:29ring rust. He'd been off for a while after
- 29:31the the lost. Different punch.
- 29:32Just like a girl. By the way, I mean he.
- 29:34Was yeah, he was. I mean, yeah, he, he's
- 29:36definitely a, he almost kind of reminds me of DDP where it's his
- 29:40striking. It's just awkward.
- 29:41It just doesn't look fluid and it's like the the punches don't
- 29:44have as much like power behind them.
- 29:46And then Kyo, I was a little disappointed with him too,
- 29:49because I thought he was going to either.
- 29:50He was such a big favorite. He's going to show out, try to
- 29:52get him. He's trying to rise back up the.
- 29:54Right, dropping his hands, man dropping.
- 29:56His hands, yeah, he was fighting very dangerously, but I almost
- 29:59wonder if it was just from exhaustion because by round
- 30:01three both of them look gas and like they didn't even want him
- 30:03in there. They're very disappointing.
- 30:05Like I was hoping for a great fight, but it was kind of just
- 30:08seemed like both guys were cool coasting out the rounds.
- 30:11I want to get into this John Jones situation and the UFC
- 30:16White House, what you know, the fight, everybody thought this
- 30:19was going to be the, the, the, the card of the century.
- 30:22And the main event will be the lightweight championship, Ilya
- 30:27Taporia versus Justin Gagee. Alex Pereira is going to fight
- 30:31Gan Gani and and Sean O'Malley is going to fight Zahibi.
- 30:38And and I'm looking at I'm looking at this card.
- 30:40This card is not really that good.
- 30:42I mean, Diego Lopez, you would have thought that Dana White was
- 30:47going to put something together that's going to remind us like
- 30:50an Alex Pori, Pori era, Pori era versus like a John Jones.
- 30:55So John Jones came out, he attacked, he attacked the UFC
- 30:59and said this after Dana White came back at him.
- 31:02He said I understand business deals fall through sometimes,
- 31:06but going out publicly and saying things that aren't you
- 31:10isn't right, Jon Jones said. After everything I've given to
- 31:14the UFC, the years, the title defenses, the fights, hearing
- 31:18that I'm done is disappointing, especially when as recently as
- 31:23Friday, UFC was calling me, trying to get me on the White
- 31:28House card for much lower number.
- 31:31So for some reason something happened and, and I think Jon
- 31:37Jones wanted more money than Dana White wanted to give him.
- 31:41And, and, and here's the problem with the UFC, Dana White and,
- 31:44and I got to give Jake Paul a lot of credit because I, I know
- 31:48there's somebody coming back in Ronda Rousey and she wanted to
- 31:54fight back in the UFC. She reached out to Dana White
- 31:57because Dana White was the one that kind of told her to retire
- 32:00because of the concussion problem she had.
- 32:02And she had this thing set up and she decided to fight on, on
- 32:08Jake Paul's card because Jake Paul was going to offer her more
- 32:12money, more guaranteed money. And Dana White for some reason
- 32:16over the last couple of years in ownership over there has really
- 32:19stinged these fighters significant portion of money.
- 32:23John Jones, I'll say this about John Jones.
- 32:26He's not afraid to go out in public in and blast anybody,
- 32:29including Dana White, who has been everything to him when it
- 32:33comes to his pockets. It's really saving his career
- 32:35because John Jones should have been done with mixed martial
- 32:38arts after all the things that he has been caught doing.
- 32:40I mean, he almost killed people driving his car, almost killed
- 32:43himself sniffing cocaine, doing all this stuff, PEDs, This guy
- 32:48has done everything and the UFC has taken him back with flying
- 32:50colors. So I got to give Dana White a
- 32:51little bit of credit here, but but to Dana White, this guy is
- 32:56your best champion, the greatest mixed martial artist of all
- 32:59time. As you have said many, many
- 33:02times after when people have asked you, hey, who's the
- 33:05greatest UFC fighter of all time?
- 33:07And you have said multiple times, it's Jon Jones.
- 33:10And this guy wanted to find at fight Alex Pereira on the White
- 33:14House card to fight in front of all the fans, in front of the
- 33:18president of United States on the greatest card ever
- 33:22assembled. And you picked gone.
- 33:25That's what you picked to fight Pereira.
- 33:28I mean, to me, I think it's disappointing.
- 33:31I think this card card is disappointing.
- 33:33I think it's a lack of really understanding of what you are as
- 33:37a promoter, as a president of an organization that you helped
- 33:40build. I think it's pathetic.
- 33:42And I, I honestly think that this card, you look at the card
- 33:46that was last year of when it came to Christmas time and even
- 33:51the card before Christmas, those cards are better than this card
- 33:55where everybody when, when Dana White came out and said this is
- 33:57going to be the greatest card ever assembled in UFC history.
- 34:00Pathetic. Yeah, So I mean, obviously, you
- 34:03know, there's the whole situation with Jon Jones.
- 34:05I think it's kind of just turning into a he said, she said
- 34:08between Dana and John. Like, I agree with you, Errol,
- 34:10that like, look, if you had the opportunity to get John, I mean,
- 34:13I'm personally a little bit more biased to it.
- 34:15I think the disrespect being shown to Tom Aspinall was, you
- 34:18know, completely wrong. But if they had gotten Jon Jones
- 34:21against Pereira, I would be down for that and then the winner
- 34:24could then fight Tom for the undisputed title.
- 34:26I think had they had had their way, if Tom Aspinall had not
- 34:29gotten injured by serial gone, which by the way, it you'd say
- 34:32that is kind of weird to then reward him with another title
- 34:35shot after he was the one who almost blinded Tom Aspinall,
- 34:38which is just crazy. But then again, that shows you
- 34:40how bad the heavyweight division is that we have to keep relying
- 34:42on Jon Jones because other than Tom Aspinall, there's no real
- 34:44contenders. I mean, Pereira's moved up now
- 34:46to go for a third title and which is unbelievable and would
- 34:50be a amazing accomplishment. He'd be the first ever three
- 34:52division champion. But if you have to bring up a
- 34:55guy from light heavyweight to do that, which I mean that's even
- 34:58where John Jones got started. His name, he wasn't a
- 35:00heavyweight, he was a light heavyweight and he moved on up
- 35:02because the divisions just. Actually, he was a middle
- 35:04weight. Actually, he was a middle
- 35:05weight. Oh yeah, but then even more, but
- 35:07I mean, it just shows you how like lackluster and how
- 35:09talentless the division is. There's just no one there to
- 35:12fight. And like, look, the whole
- 35:14situation with Jon Jones, I think Dana, the main reason he's
- 35:18just never refused said he said like there's no chance he
- 35:21wouldn't even have been even considered him on the card.
- 35:23I think he still feels kind of burned about the Tom Asmol
- 35:26situation where originally it was he didn't want to fight him
- 35:28because of the whole he was younger than me thing.
- 35:31Then it was, oh, I want 30 million.
- 35:33And then they supposedly got him the number.
- 35:35Then he said I want to fight Steve Miocic, and they gave him
- 35:37that. And I think Dana just kind of
- 35:39feels like a scorned X at this point where he's like, well, you
- 35:42know, you screwed me over, so I ain't going to give you a chance
- 35:44of this at all. And you know, I think like you
- 35:47said, I don't think this card is necessarily bad.
- 35:50It's just the expectations that were put on this card has been
- 35:54built up by us. I mean, we've been thinking
- 35:55about it for about a year now. And again, I I mean, like I
- 35:59said, Justin Gage, he's my favorite fighter.
- 36:00I'm happy he's fighting in the main event against Iliad
- 36:02Zaporia, you know, Pereira versus gone should be a good
- 36:05fight. But you know, of course we would
- 36:07have loved to have John Jones or Tom Aspinall on that card.
- 36:10And you know, the whole Conor McGregor situation, whether how
- 36:12you feel about him or not, I think the entire world was kind
- 36:16of expecting us to get a Conor McGregor fight.
- 36:18I mean, hell, Michael Chandler's on the card.
- 36:20You literally could have done it, but we got Chandler.
- 36:22Where's Michael Chandler on this card?
- 36:25I mean, come on. And Lopez?
- 36:27Lopez has lost back-to-back fights against Falconowski.
- 36:30Why is he on this card? They did make some interesting,
- 36:33I think for one, interesting absolutely politically I'm
- 36:37political thing in the sense that it doesn't really make
- 36:39sense. That's political.
- 36:41It's like Sean O'Malley. I think it's great, but I think
- 36:43it should have been him versus Corey Sanhagan.
- 36:45The fact that's Amin's hobby. You know why Sean O'malley's on
- 36:48the card? Because that's Donald Trump's
- 36:50favorite fighter. That's.
- 36:51That's true. No, his favorite fighter is
- 36:53Derek Lewis. But I mean, we don't even see
- 36:54Derek. Lewis, but O'Malley is one of
- 36:56his favorite fighters. Yeah, but like again, Michael
- 36:59Chandler without Conor McGregor, like it's a because, I mean,
- 37:02Chandler hasn't won a fight since I think he beat Tony
- 37:05Ferguson. I mean, it's, I don't know,
- 37:07it's. How is he on this card?
- 37:09I mean, and Lopez has lost back-to-back fights against.
- 37:12Yeah, I mean, Diego Lopez is a great fighter, yeah, but it's
- 37:15again, it's like you back-to-back losses against.
- 37:18Why is it Volkanowski on this card defending his title?
- 37:23Yeah. Lopez.
- 37:24Yeah, it might it. Might be too quick of a turn
- 37:26around. Why?
- 37:27He never got hurt. He kicked the crap out of Lopez.
- 37:29He had not one scratch. Yeah, I think the reason that
- 37:32they're waiting for though is because in two weeks we have
- 37:34Laurent Murphy versus Mavzar EV11 that probably will be the
- 37:38winner or the the next contender for Volcanovsky.
- 37:40And and depending on how the much they beat the crap out of
- 37:42each other, it might be not quite a quick of a turn.
- 37:45Around none of them are beating him anyways.
- 37:47I I don't think so. Well, yeah, but I don't know.
- 37:49I mean, again, it's a, it's a strange situation.
- 37:52I don't think it's a horrible car, but in terms of our
- 37:54expectations, like it does feel like a little bit of a let down,
- 37:58especially when you do see some of the matches like again, the
- 38:00main event, stellar Co main event I think will be great, but
- 38:03the the middle and then the beginning of the of the I mean.
- 38:09That's what they did. They hazed us.
- 38:12And I'm sorry, Dana and I listen, I, I respect Dana White
- 38:15and what he's done for the UFC and mixed martial arts and
- 38:18combat sports. He's done a great job on
- 38:20building this into a just a fan favorite sport.
- 38:24But to to talk about this over the last past year and a half,
- 38:27saying this is going to be the greatest card the UFC is ever
- 38:31assembled. We thought maybe Conor McGregor
- 38:33on the card, maybe a Nate Diaz coming back and fighting Connor
- 38:37for three. That would have been great.
- 38:39Volkanowski and somebody else and Ilya's coming back to fight
- 38:43Gagey. That's.
- 38:44Whatever it is not Makashev either.
- 38:46I mean, they weren't talking about that.
- 38:47I've heard there was a rumor that it was supposed to be to
- 38:49Poria Makashev for the welterweight titles.
- 38:52That would have been Ilya going for three belts, which would
- 38:54have been great. But again, it's all rumors.
- 38:56No one really knows. But again, yeah, it's like they
- 38:59did kind of tease us a little bit and it was.
- 39:01It's a good card, but it's not the cream of the crop we were
- 39:05kind of hoping. For I bet you Christmastime this
- 39:07coming year is going to be better than this card where
- 39:09everybody says this is going to be the court of the year.
- 39:12Yeah. Yeah, I mean, because then
- 39:14again, there won't be as much of a year and a half of hype going.
- 39:16Into it. And, and by the way, for
- 39:18everybody to know to get tickets to go and watch this at the
- 39:21White House, it's going to be ridiculous.
- 39:25I think as a fan, they have, like they said, they've had like
- 39:27a, they have like a sideline spot where it's almost a
- 39:29projector. I don't even think you can get
- 39:30seats. You must have to be like a VIP
- 39:33or inclusive invite. You're not even going to get to
- 39:35go. So it's kind of a let down.
- 39:36Like you don't even get to watch the event from the White House
- 39:39long. Like, I get it with all the
- 39:40clearances and all the background checks they're going
- 39:43to have to do on people who will be allowed, but that is kind of
- 39:45a let down. Like you said, Oh my God, I
- 39:47don't even want to know how it's going to be to get to watch the
- 39:49projector view. It's going to be madness.
- 39:51Anyways, Jake, we love you man. Good work.
- 39:54We got to do something, me and you.
- 39:55I I'm working on so many things and jumping on so many podcasts
- 40:00it's crazy. I'm a busy guy, but I think you
- 40:03would be great. Talking mixed martial arts and
- 40:05maybe me and you doing something maybe once or all the pay per
- 40:09views, all the pay per views. We do a show for caged and MMA
- 40:13and just strictly go through the matches and, and do our takes I
- 40:16think and and create like a podcast once a month.
- 40:19If you're interested in doing that.
- 40:20Maybe maybe we should do something like that.
- 40:22I think it'll be fun. Yeah, I think that'd be great.
- 40:25That'd be awesome. Well, I'll talk to Fish.
- 40:27Maybe I'll have fish reach out to you.
- 40:29We'll talk. I think it's a good idea.
- 40:30I think it'd be great for us and and we create like a YouTube
- 40:34channel for it for all the UFC fans to kind of check us out and
- 40:37and check out our takes. And I think it'll be.
- 40:40Great. When's the next UFC fights?
- 40:43March. April.
- 40:45No. No.
- 40:46Oh, it's April. April April 11th.
- 40:47April 11th goes to. UFC 327 So the headline is Yuri
- 40:52Prohaska against Carlos Olberg for the vacant light heavyweight
- 40:55title, and then event Joshua van versus Tatsuya for the Yeah,
- 41:01it's it's that should be a very good car.
- 41:03It should be very interesting. A lot of good undercard fights
- 41:05so I'm looking forward. To Joshua, Van is one of my
- 41:07favorite fighters. I know he shouldn't have won the
- 41:10title the way he did, but Joshua?
- 41:11Yeah, well, but I think he will be a good, this will be a great
- 41:14fight, a good chance for him to prove himself with that medal
- 41:16and then it'll hype you up for bringing back Pantoja.
- 41:19That'll be a great, great thing to look forward to. 100% Jake.
- 41:23Let's talk, man. Yeah.
- 41:24All right. Thank you, fellas.
- 41:25Appreciate it. There it is.
- 41:27Hey Jake, we had Jake add to it a great, great segment for UFC.
- 41:31If you're AUFC fan, he gave you his take.
- 41:34I gave you my take. Oliveira, Max Holloway cannot
- 41:37happen again. They got to keep that away.
- 41:38And if they can't find somebody, they don't find fighters that
- 41:41can fight for that BMF title. I want to see these guys beat
- 41:43the hell out of each other. That's that's the whole point of
- 41:45the title. Not ground and pound and hold
- 41:48somebody down in a body lock and use your hip or use your chin to
- 41:52try to knock him out. I mean, it was no offense, and I
- 41:55like Charles Olivera. I just think it was Olivera just
- 41:58outclassed Max Holloway in every kind of way, all right?
- 42:02Before we move on because somebody's waiting to.
- 42:03Call. All right, let's get him on.
- 42:05Kenny. Let's hear him.
- 42:07Hey, hey. What's up, kid?
- 42:11What's up, kid? No, it's not.
- 42:12Fish isn't me. He's.
- 42:14Like he's a kid. No, but I see him.
- 42:16I'm watching you. Well, fish, Fish went back the.
- 42:19Sound off. No, the sound.
- 42:22We hear you, Kenny. What's going on?
- 42:25Is the geese getting you a little roused?
- 42:27What's going on? Did you check?
- 42:30Did you enjoy my Blush interview on your network and mine?
- 42:33Yes, I was blushing. Well, let me ask you a question
- 42:40then. When you set up an interview and
- 42:43all that other stuff and you get these guys on your show, how do
- 42:47you present them to come on your show?
- 42:50Is this this is the Kenny Rainer show and I?
- 42:53Am I I just ask. I just ask and just.
- 42:58Like he just like he tastes himself.
- 43:00Yeah, just taste. Himself taste the geese, Kenny.
- 43:02It's. A lot of hot ladies and I I.
- 43:06Interviewed the pie tasters recently.
- 43:08They're not really in the sports pie taster.
- 43:12They're they're in the sky and all that.
- 43:14So and it was a before show and my battery's running down so it
- 43:18wasn't going to be 112 minutes anyways.
- 43:22How about how about did you ever had any poo Tang pie those?
- 43:27You're a poo Tang pie with the rock.
- 43:28Have you ever had any poo Tang pie, man?
- 43:32What's that? You never had poo Tang pie?
- 43:34Nobody knows except Errol. Come on man, you don't know what
- 43:37poo Tang pie is. No, that's kind of like snipe
- 43:44hunting. Snipe.
- 43:46Oh, is that your next mission after chasing geese?
- 43:49Those not do. You chase squirrels.
- 43:51Do you find a nut? Do you let the squirrels find a
- 43:54nut? Oh, no, no.
- 43:57Then you promised me Cabrera, right?
- 44:00What? Cabrera.
- 44:01Oswaldo Cabrera. Oswaldo Cabrera, That's right, I
- 44:04do to offer you, I do owe you a bet.
- 44:07So I got to introduce you to what you wanted a Yankee, right?
- 44:11Right, right. It doesn't have to be him.
- 44:13Any Yankee that currently is playing, OK, it's doesn't.
- 44:17It's not going to be judged because he's one of the stars,
- 44:19but anybody else is fine. Now let me ask you a question.
- 44:22If I get you a picture and he tells you to hold his crotch,
- 44:24would you hold it for him? Hold what?
- 44:27His crotch. No.
- 44:29You wouldn't hold his crotch. No.
- 44:32If Oswaldo pulls out his his nut sack, you wouldn't grab it and
- 44:36say yeah, sure, Oswaldo. No, I mean, that's going a
- 44:40little far. Why?
- 44:41It's kind of like you're sharing a friendly, you know,
- 44:44invitation. Fight your fight, Kenny.
- 44:48I mean, you're just like, I mean, you can, you can like it
- 44:53or, you know, just show them some love, you know?
- 44:57What do you think about that? Well, let me ask you a question,
- 44:59Kenny. How much did you drink tonight?
- 45:02I don't have any. Yeah, nothing.
- 45:04How much? How much did you smoke tonight?
- 45:05How was your bowl, Kenny? 2. 22 balls man, so.
- 45:11Why do you have these questions? I'm just asking you from A from
- 45:14a grade from 1:00 to 10:00, what would you grade yourself right
- 45:16now in Highness? Maybe 3 something like.
- 45:21That oh, you're a three so you. You have more balls to smoke.
- 45:24Ten. Wait a second, wait a second,
- 45:25wait a second, wait a second. You smoked 2 bowls and you're
- 45:29only at a three from one to 10. How much do you?
- 45:32Smoke. No, I'm saying that.
- 45:35I, I, I was just saying, I mean bulls that smoked, I don't.
- 45:39Know how many Bulls you smoked or Bulls?
- 45:42I don't know how many I'd be on one to 10.
- 45:44One to 10. So So what did you smoke?
- 45:47Kush What Purple Haze? What were you?
- 45:49What were you smoking? I don't know.
- 45:53You don't know. So wait a second, wait a second.
- 45:55Hold on. Hold on, Hold on.
- 45:57Hold on. I I'm lost, Wandell.
- 45:59Robinson Why did they do? Because the Titans paid him 5
- 46:03million more a year, more than anyone else would.
- 46:04How? Did we go from Wait a second, I,
- 46:07I'm. Lost here.
- 46:08I don't think of it this way. He actually remembered a curd
- 46:09giant from 2025. How?
- 46:11Do we jump from smoking 2 bowls to Wandell Robinson?
- 46:14He made progress. Although I've listened earlier
- 46:17and God bothered me that why would you get rid of your wide
- 46:20receiver? They were never going to pay him
- 46:22that much Kenny. It was a good move to let him
- 46:24go. What would you have paid him,
- 46:26Kenny? 6 balls. 7 balls. 8 balls.
- 46:30Although I I would have been somewhere before what he got.
- 46:35An ounce. Maybe a little closer to it.
- 46:38How about a nice key? What do you think about?
- 46:40It I'm not people that make decisions and decide how much
- 46:43people should get paid as the Joe Shane's of.
- 46:46This would you if if you had a chance to meet Joe Shane, would
- 46:49you smack him in the ass? I.
- 46:51Don't know about that. I mean, I mean, you get a chance
- 46:53to smack him in the ass and say I just smacked Joe Shane in the
- 46:56ass. What would you think?
- 47:00Although I might do another interview on the on the network
- 47:09seat if you don't get me the Yankees for Opening day, I have
- 47:12an open day interview that I might get.
- 47:14Oh yeah, who's this I can't wait for?
- 47:16This he wrote. Fenway Punk.
- 47:19All right, all right. So I want you to.
- 47:23I want you to ask I. I know the Yankees suck stuff.
- 47:27OK, All right, so here's the question.
- 47:29I I'm that guy who wrote Fenway Park.
- 47:31What's your first question? OK, who's the Yankee you hate
- 47:38the most? That's your first question.
- 47:40He's not. A fan, I mean.
- 47:44That's your first. Errol's answer is Jazz Chisholm.
- 47:49How bad do you hate Roger Clemens?
- 47:53That's that's dude, you must be smoking a lot of pot, man.
- 47:58We're afraid that's the first question is he's the man that
- 48:02funded a indie label on hating the Yankees.
- 48:06That's the question you would want to ask.
- 48:09You know what question I want to ask.
- 48:11You know what question I want. To ask what?
- 48:14Here's a question I'm going to ask you before I let you go.
- 48:16You ready? You ready for the greatest
- 48:18question of all time? Yeah.
- 48:22How much are you holding? Not much, maybe a couple grams
- 48:33of hash. That's about it.
- 48:39You're smoking hash, huh? Oh, man, this guy's flying.
- 48:42Like, just stay away from the roof.
- 48:44Don't jump off the roof. Like, like, you think that
- 48:46you're smoke coming out of a chimney?
- 48:49What? Away a long time ago, man.
- 48:52Oh yeah, OK. Wasn't the Wolf of Wall Street
- 48:55the 80s? Yes, it was.
- 48:56No, that wasn't the 80s. No, the regular 1st Wall Street
- 48:59was the 80's. The Michael Douglas one was the
- 49:0180s. If I think the Wolf of Wall
- 49:03Street took place in the 80s. Oh, it took place.
- 49:06I'm oh, OK. Well, Kenny, you're a fantastic
- 49:09personality. We love you very, very much.
- 49:12The 80s was the last time people were doing actual lose.
- 49:14Kenny, just one more question here, you know, do you have any
- 49:17more questions for me before I ask you my final question before
- 49:20I let you go, OK. What?
- 49:22When are you going to hook this Yankee interview up?
- 49:24I'm going to hook this Yankee. How about this?
- 49:27I'm going to hook it up. I'm going to talk to Nathan.
- 49:30Once I get Nathan, I'm going to hook it up for you, OK?
- 49:33But you got to do something for me.
- 49:35You got to do something. For me right now, end of the
- 49:37spring or beginning of the year? End of the spring.
- 49:41OK OK OK, now I want you to do something for me.
- 49:44You ready? This is one thing for the fans.
- 49:46They want to hear you to do. OK, I want you to pick 2 animals
- 49:50and I want you to use. I want you to make those sounds.
- 49:54OK, so pick 2 animals and you got to tell us what you're going
- 49:58to do first. Why do I have to do this?
- 50:02You have to do it. Come on.
- 50:07OK. All right, pick an animal.
- 50:08What animal first? All right, I just made the sound
- 50:12to say the animal's name, right? OK, tell us the animal.
- 50:17It's a pig. A what?
- 50:19A. Pig.
- 50:21All right, give us the pig sound.
- 50:22Let's hear. It oink oink all.
- 50:28Right, that's also a three all. Right.
- 50:30And what's the second animal? A dog.
- 50:33All right, give us your bark. That's a that's a dog in heat or
- 50:41probably high. Yeah.
- 50:45We love you, Kenny. You are one interesting fellow,
- 50:48man. Keep following those geese, man.
- 50:50Keep following those. Geese, you have some
- 50:52interesting, strange questions. I know I am.
- 50:55I'm a strange person, you know? I know that that's who you are,
- 50:58all right. Not me.
- 51:01Well, we love you, Kenny. Keep up, I'll see what Chris
- 51:03says Friday evening as book signing and Q&A all.
- 51:07Right. All right, so you keep up that
- 51:09good work, man. We love you.
- 51:11If it's sports related, even if it's music related to, it will
- 51:15be on your network. If it isn't, then probably not,
- 51:18then probably not. All right, I do my own.
- 51:20All right, all right. You have a song that you want to
- 51:23sing for us before we let you go.
- 51:25No. All right.
- 51:26Well, that's good. I'm not downstairs where my
- 51:28books are. So oh, so you, you need a book
- 51:30to sing, huh? You need a book to sing?
- 51:33Very. Interesting, I'm better at
- 51:34following lyrics from a book. Well, it's easy.
- 51:37Well, you're a good guy, man. We love you.
- 51:39Now stay out of trouble. Don't don't wear any like robes
- 51:43on your show, OK? Please stay away from.
- 51:44That OK? All right?
- 51:46I wear robes. No.
- 51:47You all right? There you are.
- 51:50Kenny, think of someone else, all right?
- 51:52We love you, Kenny. The old guy that wore robes all
- 51:55the time. Yeah, Kenny.
- 51:57I never heard of a skin flute. All right.
- 51:59We love you man. I go, I got it.
- 52:02Lost in translation. I'm a little.
- 52:06Lost. At least he named a player that
- 52:08was on the Giants roster last. Year.
- 52:09Well, that's good. I mean, I remember how many
- 52:12years he called up of talking about Eli Manning and Eli
- 52:14Manning wasn't on that roster. I mean, Eli Manning was retired.
- 52:18I'd be. An iconic.
- 52:19He is an interesting dude. He might have a time machine
- 52:22with some of the substances he's mixed over.
- 52:25Dudes, when you talk about burnt, that guy is burnt beyond
- 52:30burnt. I mean he is like in a whole
- 52:33nother world. It's like a seesaw of craziness.
- 52:35Anyways, we call this what's that smell?
- 52:38Hold up, what is that smell? What's that smell?
- 52:47Wow. You don't see that every day.
- 52:49All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is very easy.
- 52:51We're going to tell you a story in sports or something, and
- 52:55we're going to tell you what it smells like.
- 52:57All right, we're going to go with the Speed Star first.
- 53:01Then we're going to go with Mr. Fish Poops, then me.
- 53:06Here we go. All right, I'll start off with a
- 53:08story the fish kind of hinted at in the sports minute, and that
- 53:11was the fact that Paige Shinner the the woman that sure on Moore
- 53:16was doing very disgusting things to her contract was not renewed
- 53:20by the University of Michigan when she was a victim in all
- 53:23this. They they got rid of her trying
- 53:26to get rid of that whole scandal as it was.
- 53:28Meanwhile, she did nothing wrong and she was a victim of all this
- 53:31disgusting things that Sharon Moore was doing and fishy kind
- 53:34of hints at it. Now.
- 53:36She said she possibly going after a lawsuit on Sharon Moore,
- 53:40who came up to came up to her house, Barton in her house and
- 53:43then tried to kill herself with butter knife.
- 53:46Yeah, great job Sharon Moore and the university won't even renew
- 53:49her contract. Hopefully she can get another
- 53:50job. But continuing to be a bad look
- 53:52and what has been a good, really riveting, gross Michigan saga.
- 53:56Kyle Winningham is a good coach, but he's kind of stuck in this
- 53:59bad Atlantic department that continued to bring back Rick
- 54:01Koji and a bunch of others for whatever reason.
- 54:03So what does it smell like? We've been bashing him all
- 54:05night. How about Michigan alum Tom
- 54:07Brady making up making out with Alex Guerrero over a dead
- 54:11Wolverine carcass? I don't care.
- 54:14Let's not. All right, I didn't expect The
- 54:17Wolverine carcass to make an appearance.
- 54:19I had to take a shot, but I got one for you.
- 54:20I don't think I can. I don't think I'm beating that
- 54:22one. But let's go to college
- 54:24basketball and Auburn, the Auburn Tigers.
- 54:29Errol, you know who their coach is.
- 54:30It's not Bruce Pearl because he's retired and he's still
- 54:33talking a lot on television. It's his son Steven Pearl.
- 54:38And Bruce Pearl came out, they asked him the other day and they
- 54:42said and and did I help get my son the job?
- 54:45Nepotism, Of course I did. Well, that's OK, I guess.
- 54:51People get their kids jobs all the time.
- 54:53He's also 16 and 15. They lost another game.
- 54:57And when they asked him, should they make the the dance?
- 55:01He thought that Auburn, because they beat Florida in Florida
- 55:05earlier this year, has a better win than other teams on the
- 55:08bubble and that they should make it over lots of teams.
- 55:11He made a little bit of headway intimating earlier in the year
- 55:14that Miami OH, if they went undefeated, if they lost one
- 55:19game, didn't win their tournament, they shouldn't make
- 55:21it. He's kind of taking that stance
- 55:23back, but Errol Bruce Pearl, Steven Pearl, the Pearl family.
- 55:30Look, I know that Pearls represented Israel in the Mac
- 55:34begins. I just a Jew myself.
- 55:36I. Got a circle jerk.
- 55:37The Pearl family All this smells like the worst rotten, stinky
- 55:43gefilte fish. Make her squirt.
- 55:45Make me jerk. Maybe it smells like that after.
- 55:51Thumb up my ass. I'm gonna be going somewhere.
- 55:58I go quite often as of recently too, and I'm going here quite
- 56:01often because as I mentioned in WWE, the WrestleMania is right
- 56:05around the corner. And.
- 56:07This one is going to be going out to the most unappreciated
- 56:10the most. Undecided.
- 56:12And the never happy fans known as the wrestling community take
- 56:17a look at this now. For those of you don't know,
- 56:18like I mentioned, WrestleMania is around the corner.
- 56:21Cody Rhodes is now set to faces long time mentor person that
- 56:27he's looked up to Randy Orton, WWE legend.
- 56:30Now The thing is, is fans are somewhat somewhat furious if you
- 56:33take a look at this picture two years ago when The Rock
- 56:36infamously took Cody Rhodes spot against Roman.
- 56:39Reigns in. WWE WrestleMania, we all had the
- 56:43outrage of We want Cody, the signs, the people protesting all
- 56:48on Twitter. We want Cody, however, now two
- 56:50years later, him inserting himself, removing Drew McIntyre
- 56:54who was the reigning WWE Champion in as the WrestleMania
- 56:58match against big boobs Randy Orton for the WWE title.
- 57:02Basically now we're we're switching up two years later, no
- 57:06more Cody. A lot of these fans just don't
- 57:08know what they want. They wanted WWE to put Rock and
- 57:12Roman and WrestleMania. They got it.
- 57:14They wanted Cody instead. Now we have something that
- 57:17people have been wanting since Cody has had the Title 2.
- 57:20Years now go check. Your in the sense of Cody Rhodes
- 57:22versus his mentor Randy Orton. But now people are just
- 57:25undecisive. I agree with some fans.
- 57:27I think Drew should definitely be deserving of going into WWE
- 57:30with the championship title, but let's be honest, better than
- 57:34anybody could have predicted or with you in that matchup than
- 57:37anybody. This dabber anybody?
- 57:39Predicted. So basically, I don't know how
- 57:42people are so offended. It's like I.
- 57:44Said this is a match that everybody.
- 57:45'S wanted for the last couple years, so if you don't like you.
- 57:48Go I need a blow pop. Or if anything, you can.
- 57:51Also you can. It's going to smell like the
- 57:52smelliest part of the thong of known.
- 57:56Scoop sits on the sugar. Biggest ass of rikishi after a
- 57:59Mexican. Cream pie blowjob.
- 58:01All right, great. Ladies and gentlemen, I guess
- 58:07you know, WWE is not where we're going on this one.
- 58:10That's for sure. All right, so we, we went into
- 58:13this a little bit earlier, but I, I had to bring it up again to
- 58:17A tag of Viola assigned A1 year deal with the Falcons, which is
- 58:22very, very interesting because I, I, you know, this is Matt
- 58:26Ryan's first move as the president of the Atlanta
- 58:29Falcons. Former Miami Dolphins
- 58:31quarterback to attack Evola plans to sign a one year deal
- 58:34with the Atlanta Falcons, sources say to Adam Schefner.
- 58:38The move now will give the Falcons 2 left-handed
- 58:42quarterbacks. left-handed ladies and gentlemen, What happened to
- 58:46the right hand? Who knows, but Taga, Taga Viola
- 58:50and Michael Pennix junior heading into 2026 season to
- 58:55what? Taga Viola was informed on
- 58:57Monday that he was released by the Dolphins.
- 59:00The Falcons enter the offseason in a market for a quarterback,
- 59:04with Michael Pennix recovering from a knee injury and Kirk
- 59:07Cousins set to be released this Wednesday.
- 59:12Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is an interesting story.
- 59:16You know why it's an interesting story?
- 59:17Because I remember a couple of months ago, actually a month
- 59:22ago, when, yes, a guy named Matt Ryan went out there and spoke to
- 59:28the fans, spoke loudly to the fans that I don't know who my
- 59:32quarterback is and I am not going to plan that Michael
- 59:35Pennix is in my future. And then, ladies and gentlemen,
- 59:40he does one of the most ridiculously, ridiculously
- 59:43stupid things we've ever seen a president do.
- 59:47He brings in a quarterback that got paid almost $100 million,
- 59:51who has done nothing for a Miami organization that overused him
- 59:55and misused him, but thought that he was that kind of
- 59:59quarterback to overpay him. And what does that smell like?
- 1:00:03It smells like Matt Ryan. Is going to lose his job a lot
- 1:00:08sooner than later. He's not going to be with that
- 1:00:10organization that long. Because once Arch Arthur Blank
- 1:00:14realizes that Matt Ryan doesn't know what he's doing, he's going
- 1:00:18to fire him. And I already believe he doesn't
- 1:00:21know what the hell he's doing. I there's no sense of any
- 1:00:25imagination. You bring in a quarterback that
- 1:00:29is less of the quarterback you have on your roster.
- 1:00:31And Michael Pennix and you even came out and said that you don't
- 1:00:34believe you unsure if Michael Pennix is the quarterback of the
- 1:00:39future for this organization. Real smart, real stupid.
- 1:00:44And that, ladies and gentlemen, is my what's that smell?
- 1:00:48I, I, I, I do not get Matt Ryan. I, I, I really don't.
- 1:00:53I would love to get Matt Ryan on the show because I would love to
- 1:00:55ask him this question. Out of all the quarterbacks you
- 1:00:59could have brought in free agency to force Michael Pennix
- 1:01:03to play harder, you bring into Attack of Iola.
- 1:01:06I mean, it makes no sense. None of it does.
- 1:01:10And that was his move of the day, guys.
- 1:01:12That was his move. That was the slam dunk move that
- 1:01:16Matt Ryan made. I had to bring it up because I
- 1:01:19didn't really get much into it. But that that's got to be one of
- 1:01:22the dumbest president moves. Everybody keeps talking about
- 1:01:25how stupid ownership is. Arthur Blank is that dumb.
- 1:01:30Hiring Matt Ryan, Maddie Ice as his president of operations
- 1:01:35because to attack of Viola would be on my last list of
- 1:01:39quarterbacks I bring in when you have a better version of Tua on
- 1:01:44your roster. So makes no sense anyways yeah I
- 1:01:48had to add that it really pathetic thank you to all the
- 1:01:51fans on Spotify and Apple Spotify and Apple video and
- 1:01:54audio 16,000 downloads last night.
