- 0:31Speaker 1: to know the first thing, why, UFC? Why put your
- 0:33Speaker 1: body in your face and your arm legs do all that?
- 0:37Speaker 1: You get that question from all the time, don't you
- 0:41Speaker 1: Why you ain't doing it? Did because I ain't bigg enough.
- 0:45Speaker 1: You don't have to be big. Yeah, you can be
- 0:47Speaker 1: in a different weight class. Oh, I just I just
- 0:50Speaker 1: like you know, competition. So that's just who I am.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Anything that's you know that can possibly hurt you, I'm
- 0:57Speaker 1: down for it. Besides bungee jumping and scott diving. I
- 1:00Speaker 1: definitely tried. I always wanted to. You guys grow up
- 1:03Speaker 1: beating people up in school and somebody said, hey man, stop,
- 1:05Speaker 1: you know, just wasting your talents. Yeah, we were probably
- 1:10Speaker 1: pretty good in high school that, yeah, I was. I
- 1:12Speaker 1: was good. I've never been in a fight really until
- 1:14Speaker 1: out of high school. Really yeah, like in the street,
- 1:18Speaker 1: just in the general. I was just always athletic and
- 1:21Speaker 1: just tough, you know, being a kid growing up in
- 1:23Speaker 1: the country. I mean I fell out of trees and
- 1:26Speaker 1: all types of stuff like that and I still live.
- 1:28Speaker 1: So I was like, why not try something from Georgia, right, yeah,
- 1:32Speaker 1: part of Georgia raised on a dirt road. Nah. He
- 1:39Speaker 1: tried to bond. No, No, I got you now, like
- 1:42Speaker 1: the Marris Thomas place for the the demo Broncos. He's
- 1:46Speaker 1: from my hometown, NA for training. No, he doesn't. He
- 1:53Speaker 1: were not with me at least. And then Eric Walden
- 1:56Speaker 1: plays for thank he plays for the coach. Now, Anthony,
- 1:59Speaker 1: you the top right guy, right, You're supposed to fight
- 2:01Speaker 1: A Bones Jones. Yeah, I was supposed to. But then
- 2:03Speaker 1: he wouldn't did cocaine, right, he did? He did some things,
- 2:12Speaker 1: but you know, that's just things he has to deal with.
- 2:15Speaker 1: You know. Now I have Daniel Cormier who I'm fighting,
- 2:17Speaker 1: so that's what's my focus on right now. But disappointed, Yeah,
- 2:21Speaker 1: I'm disappointed because every because you know, when you get
- 2:23Speaker 1: to this level, you want to fight the best of
- 2:25Speaker 1: the best, And even though John isn't here right now,
- 2:28Speaker 1: he's still the best of the best in my opinion.
- 2:30Speaker 1: So I still have mad respect for him. I still
- 2:32Speaker 1: want to fight him. You know, it's nothing personal. It's
- 2:34Speaker 1: just I want to see if I can beat the King.
- 2:39Speaker 1: I think he will. Just you don't want to be
- 2:45Speaker 1: on top and then get booted like he did and
- 2:48Speaker 1: then not finish what you started. So I think he's
- 2:50Speaker 1: gonna come back even stronger. How long do you take
- 2:53Speaker 1: off between fights? A month? A month? Yeah, unless you
- 2:57Speaker 1: get unless you get injured, unless you get injured. Man, geez,
- 3:02Speaker 1: when you look at somebody like Balls Jones, don't you
- 3:04Speaker 1: know they say he did have a little drugge you
- 3:05Speaker 1: don't you feel like you gotta have some type of
- 3:07Speaker 1: vice for what y'all do to take the heads off? Nah,
- 3:11Speaker 1: I think you need to support yourself with good people. Yeah, yeah,
- 3:17Speaker 1: good people. I mean, I think we're all capable of
- 3:19Speaker 1: doing super things, right, so you gotta be smart enough
- 3:21Speaker 1: to surrounde you some people that aren't going to put
- 3:23Speaker 1: you in those situations. It's not easy. It's easier. Now,
- 3:26Speaker 1: do you beat somebody until they say uncle or does
- 3:28Speaker 1: it ref stop? You can probably kill somebody in the face.
- 3:32Speaker 1: I mean, it's a controlled environment. It's a controlled environment.
- 3:35Speaker 1: You know. You got you your opponent, and the ref,
- 3:37Speaker 1: the ref isn't gonna let you take too much damage
- 3:40Speaker 1: unless he absolutely knows that you can take it, you know.
- 3:43Speaker 1: And I've seen some guys get beat up and just
- 3:47Speaker 1: keep going, you know, and those are the toughest guys
- 3:49Speaker 1: to fight. I hate fighting guys like that. Now, Chris,
- 3:52Speaker 1: you yourself to have said that after an injury you
- 3:54Speaker 1: come back stronger because your bones are actually stronger after
- 3:57Speaker 1: you've had certain injuries, right, yeah, I mean your bones
- 3:59Speaker 1: are strong. But also, like anytime you have a setback
- 4:01Speaker 1: of anything, any part of any part of life, you know,
- 4:03Speaker 1: you you have to learn from it. And so I
- 4:05Speaker 1: think having injuries is one way of doing that, you know,
- 4:09Speaker 1: you know, becoming better from a setback. Sometimes I prevent you, though,
- 4:13Speaker 1: from having that fight that you anticipated having because they
- 4:16Speaker 1: can't wait on you obviously when you get injured it
- 4:18Speaker 1: and they're like, okay, yeah, well my fight actually had
- 4:20Speaker 1: to get pushed back because I got to injury and
- 4:21Speaker 1: frash my ribs and so, but thank god we were
- 4:25Speaker 1: able to hold the fight together. And still I'm still fine, Vito.
- 4:27Speaker 1: I'm a twenty third, so it's good. Why do you
- 4:30Speaker 1: think the UFC isn't as big as boxing yet? Because
- 4:33Speaker 1: it's way more exciting, well, at least, I'm not gonna
- 4:34Speaker 1: say it is way more exciting than like the big
- 4:36Speaker 1: fights like the Pakia may Weather stuff. But it seems
- 4:39Speaker 1: like people on it. Well, I feel like that's all
- 4:40Speaker 1: you have though who else? Who else is there? And
- 4:43Speaker 1: I feel I feel like MMA. I feel like MMA
- 4:45Speaker 1: is already is bigger, has been around for so yeah,
- 4:50Speaker 1: that the world knows about boxing, we're still very new
- 4:52Speaker 1: because when we tried to come in here, we told
- 4:55Speaker 1: the security guy in the front desk, you know we
- 4:58Speaker 1: were with the UFC, said us see we were like, man,
- 5:03Speaker 1: Chris were just like, you know, this is still a
- 5:05Speaker 1: new sport and we've been around for how many years now,
- 5:08Speaker 1: like fifteen something like that. You can't have fighting. Hang on,
- 5:12Speaker 1: Let's get something straight. Boxing is not fighting. It's just
- 5:15Speaker 1: one element of fighting. It's like saying wrestling is fighting,
- 5:18Speaker 1: So saying you know, karate is fighting, you have to
- 5:21Speaker 1: I'm looking around you if you say, it's not fighting.
- 5:26Speaker 1: The UFC is exactly what you're allowed to do on
- 5:28Speaker 1: the streets without bringing any weapons to the game. It's
- 5:31Speaker 1: pretty much as real as it gets. Boxing is just
- 5:33Speaker 1: throwing your hands. You can't kick, you can't take the
- 5:35Speaker 1: dude down, you can't submit them. I mean, it's really
- 5:38Speaker 1: not fighting. It's just one aspect. It's a it's an
- 5:40Speaker 1: amazing part of it. With her name Ronda Rosy, she
- 5:43Speaker 1: said she could beat me whether I was like she
- 5:45Speaker 1: probably could. She probably could. She could do You feel
- 5:48Speaker 1: it's offensive when boxes are always like, Okay, I'm gonna
- 5:50Speaker 1: start doing you know, MMA now, and people feel like
- 5:52Speaker 1: they could really just step into it and they don't
- 5:54Speaker 1: realize it is a whole Boxing has a mentality just
- 5:57Speaker 1: you know, they have so many people in their ears
- 6:00Speaker 1: and saying, you know, you're the best year of the
- 6:02Speaker 1: champ you can do whatever. I think. They getting mixed
- 6:04Speaker 1: up a little bit and it drives them crazy, so
- 6:07Speaker 1: they feel like they're on top of the world whenever
- 6:09Speaker 1: they actually get in there with somebody that knows mixed
- 6:11Speaker 1: martial arts, and once they hit the ground, they're like
- 6:14Speaker 1: a fish out of water. They don't know what they do.
- 6:15Speaker 1: From that point, they're done and they go back to boxing. Yeah,
- 6:18Speaker 1: who made a brother from the hood learn how to
- 6:20Speaker 1: do the mixed martial arts thing? Um? You know, I
- 6:23Speaker 1: was in college and wrestling, and I was finished with wrestling.
- 6:26Speaker 1: I wasn't going to try and you know, try and
- 6:29Speaker 1: go out for the Olympics or anything. So I just
- 6:31Speaker 1: kind of fell into it. You got belt and stuff like,
- 6:34Speaker 1: you know, like a black belt. No, oh, so you
- 6:36Speaker 1: didn't go like the actual And that's what I'm saying.
- 6:39Speaker 1: I never I never did any martial arts. I never
- 6:42Speaker 1: threw one single punching wrestling. But wrestling that was it.
- 6:45Speaker 1: But help, So how did you get in because it's
- 6:48Speaker 1: UFC is not even here right? Yeah, it's been Yeah,
- 6:50Speaker 1: same exact thing. I started with wrestling. I wrestled throughout college,
- 6:55Speaker 1: and then I kind of grew up fighting a lot.
- 6:57Speaker 1: So I kind of always even if I was the
- 6:58Speaker 1: loser to a dude and wrestling, I'd always be like, no,
- 7:01Speaker 1: he definitely can't beat me in a fight. So I
- 7:03Speaker 1: just ended up feeling like this is kind of what
- 7:05Speaker 1: I was meant to do, and then I try it
- 7:07Speaker 1: for the two thousand Olympics. I got injured before the trials,
- 7:09Speaker 1: and I was like, let me try mixed martial arts
- 7:11Speaker 1: and I just fell in love with it. But when
- 7:12Speaker 1: the last time you thought christ because like you got bruises.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Now I'm I'm in a tough training camp. This is
- 7:17Speaker 1: actually from a headbut you know so yeah, no training
- 7:21Speaker 1: camp is you know, you want your training camp to
- 7:23Speaker 1: almost be harder than the fight. So when you get
- 7:24Speaker 1: in there, you know you're not uncomfortable. There's nothing that
- 7:27Speaker 1: you haven't seen before. So how do you get the
- 7:29Speaker 1: key looy things on you? Oh the college flower, that's
- 7:32Speaker 1: just colle flower is just like bruising. So you could
- 7:34Speaker 1: get it from boxing, you get from wrestling. But it's
- 7:36Speaker 1: basically when your ear gets hit, it swells up with
- 7:39Speaker 1: blood and if it gets hit again and gets hit again,
- 7:42Speaker 1: ends up calcifying and then you're you're you're just yeah,
- 7:46Speaker 1: that's crazy. I mean, I just thought about it, like
- 7:48Speaker 1: the training have to be that intense because because when
- 7:51Speaker 1: you go actually fight, it's on level media. There's nothing.
- 7:55Speaker 1: What I don't think there's one thing worse in the
- 7:57Speaker 1: world than to be in a fight with a with
- 7:59Speaker 1: a professional athlete. I'm trying to take your head off
- 8:01Speaker 1: and you're tired, you can't do anything. Thanks. I mean,
- 8:04Speaker 1: there's nothing worse than that. So you have to make
- 8:06Speaker 1: sure you were training, you know, like a crazy man,
- 8:09Speaker 1: so that doesn't happen. I think I think about the money.
- 8:12Speaker 1: That's what keeps me standing. How much fighting is it?
- 8:14Speaker 1: Just you can give his ballpark because a lot of
- 8:15Speaker 1: kids would love to know. How much money do you get?
- 8:17Speaker 1: Good money? I mean to me is you know, it's
- 8:22Speaker 1: like anything, you have to start from the ground up.
- 8:24Speaker 1: You might make five hundred your first fight, the first
- 8:27Speaker 1: fight you could it could be. It depends on the promotion. Yeah, yeah,
- 8:31Speaker 1: be more than that. Yeah, it happens like that sometimes.
- 8:34Speaker 1: But then you know, when you're at the top of
- 8:35Speaker 1: the food chain, you can make you know, a half
- 8:37Speaker 1: a meal or more. You know, it just depends. Wow.
- 8:41Speaker 1: And I'm sure the training helps you all out in
- 8:42Speaker 1: the bedroom too, like when you're smashing chicks. Nothing. Who's
- 8:50Speaker 1: the worst type of fighting? The fight always says he
- 8:52Speaker 1: will never fight a Mexican because he says, Mexicans don't stop.
- 8:55Speaker 1: They don't stop. Now, they have heart, they have hard heart.
- 8:58Speaker 1: You gotta kill him. The only book person you're upcoming fight.
- 9:07Speaker 1: But for he's Brazilian right teams Anthony's team, How you
- 9:11Speaker 1: give him some tips on how he can did? Did that?
- 9:15Speaker 1: Does seem? And this is Aaron in Florida, right, so
- 9:17Speaker 1: Victoria all his weaknesses. Now, do you think that I'm
- 9:21Speaker 1: actually knowing things like jiu jitsu and stuff like that?
- 9:23Speaker 1: That does put you in an advantage? Yeah, I mean
- 9:27Speaker 1: you have to know everything to get to the top.
- 9:29Speaker 1: Where where where where we are at right now, Like
- 9:31Speaker 1: you have to know every single martial order. If you don't,
- 9:34Speaker 1: that's that's how the guy's going to beat you. So
- 9:36Speaker 1: we have to be the best we possibly can and
- 9:38Speaker 1: be masters in Brazilian jiu jitsu and kate boxing, boxing
- 9:43Speaker 1: and tie and tie um in wrestling. So you have
- 9:46Speaker 1: to be the best you can be in every one
- 9:47Speaker 1: of those things. Why is it illegal in New York?
- 9:51Speaker 1: It was a lot of it was basically corruption, basically
- 9:55Speaker 1: some dirty politics in New York. And one of those
- 9:57Speaker 1: guys he's not here anymore. One of the guys will
- 9:59Speaker 1: hold back from being voted for voted for an assembly.
- 10:02Speaker 1: He just got arrested. So I thought you made like
- 10:05Speaker 1: you killed him. Yeah, he's no longer What the but
- 10:09Speaker 1: it feels like it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen soon.
- 10:11Speaker 1: It's gonna happen soon. They actually have a date set
- 10:13Speaker 1: December six and Madison Square Gardens they put it. They
- 10:16Speaker 1: put it a date set, so they put it aside.
- 10:19Speaker 1: I want to hopefully that will be a weapon. What
- 10:23Speaker 1: would that do for the sport? For to be in
- 10:24Speaker 1: a major market like Neil, I mean, this is the
- 10:26Speaker 1: epicenter of fighting. This is where you know, I leave
- 10:29Speaker 1: was at, you know, I mean the you know, Frasier
- 10:31Speaker 1: and all these other dudes in boxing. Their names were
- 10:33Speaker 1: Grace were graced on that Masster Square Garden bill boarding.
- 10:37Speaker 1: For us to have that there is just be amazing.
- 10:39Speaker 1: And for it not to be there, it's just insane.
- 10:42Speaker 1: It's been We're literally allowed to fight in every other
- 10:45Speaker 1: place in the world besides New York. That's crazy. There's
- 10:47Speaker 1: something wrong with that. Have you guys ever did this?
- 10:50Speaker 1: Like my son wrestles right, and I always thought to myself,
- 10:52Speaker 1: if somebody has you in the move right where you stuck,
- 10:55Speaker 1: why not tickle him? Have y'all ever try that? Because
- 10:57Speaker 1: your fingers is loose, y'all put him in a move
- 10:59Speaker 1: for me. Actually, that was a great on TV. You
- 11:06Speaker 1: don't have them, you don't have much time to think
- 11:08Speaker 1: like that. If I put you, if I put you
- 11:09Speaker 1: in a naked choke right now, because you're not thinking,
- 11:12Speaker 1: let me take them for five so that you can
- 11:18Speaker 1: put them in the riddle. Now, how are the endorsement
- 11:21Speaker 1: deals looking at because I'm sure the endorsement deals are
- 11:23Speaker 1: pouring in because I've heard a lot of people say
- 11:26Speaker 1: they would come into Vegas and have meetings to endorse
- 11:29Speaker 1: UFC be rolling in like that everything is cool. I
- 11:36Speaker 1: should say, you know right now, Um, we'll see, we'll
- 11:40Speaker 1: see everything works out. I think we just signed with
- 11:44Speaker 1: Rebodi pretty much, so it's a big chance. Thanks. I
- 11:46Speaker 1: was actually there because I was during the Floyd Mayweather fight,
- 11:49Speaker 1: the previous one a couple of fights ago, when they
- 11:51Speaker 1: were coming down and trying to sign the UFC deal. Yeah,
- 11:54Speaker 1: so it's signed. I think starting July fifth or six,
- 11:57Speaker 1: it's gonna be set in motion where you won't see
- 12:00Speaker 1: the UFC fighters out there with all different types of
- 12:02Speaker 1: sponsors anymore. It's gonna be just reboking maybe one or
- 12:05Speaker 1: two that the UFC allows in the cage. So it's
- 12:08Speaker 1: gonna be more like like the NFL, or or more
- 12:10Speaker 1: like the NFL basically like where you're sponsored by Rebok
- 12:13Speaker 1: or or Nike or whatever. And once again, that's where
- 12:16Speaker 1: it's tough because you have guys that have to start
- 12:18Speaker 1: from the ground up, you know what I mean. And
- 12:20Speaker 1: of course the lawyer you are, the less you get paid.
- 12:23Speaker 1: But you can build up to where you need to be.
- 12:26Speaker 1: But once again, you got to put that work in
- 12:28Speaker 1: at the gym to get where you want to be.
- 12:30Speaker 1: Do they encourage you'll to do things outside of the
- 12:32Speaker 1: sport to make the sport bigger? Because I was talking
- 12:35Speaker 1: about the NFL this week and I said, the NFL
- 12:37Speaker 1: is the greatest reality show on the planet, because you
- 12:39Speaker 1: would think it was football season this week. We're in
- 12:41Speaker 1: the middle of the playoffs NHL and NBA, but all
- 12:43Speaker 1: they're talking about is football. So did they tell y'all
- 12:45Speaker 1: to hey, I don't know, has some great reality shows
- 12:48Speaker 1: for the USC already. Anyway, we'll get a celebrity chick
- 12:51Speaker 1: card something like that. If I was single, I might
- 12:55Speaker 1: be going for that. But oh, you guys are both married, right,
- 13:00Speaker 1: so you need to go to some celebrity check He's
- 13:03Speaker 1: not happen. I'm trying to keep my face out of
- 13:06Speaker 1: me as much as I can have you guys, ever,
- 13:08Speaker 1: just ung out and then got into altercation with somebody
- 13:11Speaker 1: that I just didn't know. It was disrespectful, like sometimes
- 13:13Speaker 1: people are. That's that's you know, that's every guy's worst fear.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Absolutely like being a ball with somebody. Yeah, this is
- 13:20Speaker 1: before I was a UFC fire but I was a
- 13:22Speaker 1: professional fighter. One of my boys who loves to start trouble,
- 13:26Speaker 1: started in trouble with this big, big juice head. And
- 13:29Speaker 1: my friend's way more intimidating looking than me, So the
- 13:31Speaker 1: juice head didn't want any problems with my boy he wanted.
- 13:33Speaker 1: He looked straight at me. He started coming at me
- 13:35Speaker 1: because I looked like nothing comes straight at me throws
- 13:38Speaker 1: a punch. I just throw him on the floor and
- 13:39Speaker 1: I started just just embarrassing him. I just started slapping
- 13:42Speaker 1: him in the face, like just not Then he got
- 13:47Speaker 1: back up after getting embarrassed like that, and I was
- 13:49Speaker 1: I still wasn't mad. It was just kind of funny.
- 13:51Speaker 1: I was just embarrassing them. The bouncers were laughing, everybody
- 13:53Speaker 1: was just letting it happen. He gets back up, he
- 13:55Speaker 1: tries to throw another punch, I'm like, are you kidding me?
- 13:57Speaker 1: Throwing back down on the floor against did the same thing,
- 14:00Speaker 1: just slapping on the top of the head, like what
- 14:01Speaker 1: are you gonna do? What are you gonna do it?
- 14:05Speaker 1: I guess because you know, yeah, I'm not gonna punch
- 14:08Speaker 1: him in the face. Yeah, that's not gonna happen. I'm
- 14:10Speaker 1: not gonna like but like, and that was that was
- 14:13Speaker 1: maybe like that was like five years ago. That was
- 14:15Speaker 1: my last tree fight. I hardly go out anymore, but
- 14:18Speaker 1: I always get asked that same question. I always get
- 14:20Speaker 1: asked you get messed with and no, not really, no truth.
- 14:23Speaker 1: Nobody's smart is really gonna because you don't look as
- 14:26Speaker 1: big as him him. He looks big and bro, you
- 14:28Speaker 1: might be like, yeah, but you gotta, you know, button up.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Somebody might test you one time, maybe with your your lady,
- 14:32Speaker 1: your wife, and say something like, oh you would whoop
- 14:34Speaker 1: their ass. So are the rules that you're allowed to
- 14:36Speaker 1: give a nuggie and you won't get in trouble for that.
- 14:38Speaker 1: I think if I'm not gonna leave any marks, I
- 14:40Speaker 1: figured I'm good. That's why I was doing that little
- 14:41Speaker 1: couple of slaps of the face little nuggie here there.
- 14:44Speaker 1: I think you're good. But if you start punching the
- 14:45Speaker 1: dude and then he's gonna have black eyes and or
- 14:48Speaker 1: he's gonna have brain damage, you got Jesus Christ damage
- 14:53Speaker 1: too far. Man, You don't know, you don't know, it's
- 14:56Speaker 1: head his sidewalk. Do y'all have to register yourselves as
- 14:59Speaker 1: weapons because always say that about boxes. They got to
- 15:01Speaker 1: register their hands is a deadly weapons or we're licensed,
- 15:03Speaker 1: were licensed fighters. So I think right right away, I
- 15:06Speaker 1: think that's pretty much the same thing you if you
- 15:10Speaker 1: if you go to court, and you know, if I
- 15:11Speaker 1: beat up that dude and and he's taken to the court,
- 15:14Speaker 1: you know, I know what I'm doing, I know what
- 15:16Speaker 1: my hands could do, and and so I'm kind of
- 15:19Speaker 1: I'm in trouble now. Form Anthony Rebad Johnson. I had
- 15:22Speaker 1: read an article where we've been following the John Bones
- 15:25Speaker 1: Jones story where you had said that you felt like
- 15:27Speaker 1: people were trying to seem like that fight that you're
- 15:29Speaker 1: about to do is not legitimate because it's not him.
- 15:32Speaker 1: So can you speak a little bit about that and
- 15:33Speaker 1: how important it is. Um At the end of the day,
- 15:38Speaker 1: John made his own bed, you know what I mean,
- 15:41Speaker 1: And they had like Daniel Comer and myself are not
- 15:46Speaker 1: fighters that like, we're not legit fighters, and if we
- 15:50Speaker 1: don't beat John, it seems like it doesn't matter. Well,
- 15:53Speaker 1: that's not the case John. John beat himself outside of
- 15:56Speaker 1: the cage, you know what I mean, And that's why
- 15:58Speaker 1: he's not with us right now. So they give they
- 16:00Speaker 1: gave me and Daniel an opportunity to be number one now,
- 16:04Speaker 1: you know, and we don't. We don't take any credit
- 16:06Speaker 1: from John because he's still the best. But people still
- 16:09Speaker 1: need to respect us because we go out there and
- 16:12Speaker 1: we put on the line. We're still fighting for a title.
- 16:14Speaker 1: Either way. They can say what they want to say.
- 16:16Speaker 1: We're still gonna do what we do. They're gonna love
- 16:18Speaker 1: us if they're gonna hate us. At the end of
- 16:20Speaker 1: the day, it doesn't really matter what they say. Well,
- 16:22Speaker 1: then John left fright against Daniel. Yeah, yeah, okay. Are
- 16:25Speaker 1: you guys all friends with each other outside? Like I
- 16:27Speaker 1: gotta fight you, but we're cruel y'all fight man? Like, Yeah,
- 16:31Speaker 1: y'all like try to kill each other. Depends It just
- 16:34Speaker 1: depends on Like you know, John Daniel weren't friends. Nah,
- 16:37Speaker 1: they hated. Yeah, but men, DC are cool. Man, DC
- 16:41Speaker 1: are pretty cool. Um. I mean we speak and didn't like,
- 16:43Speaker 1: you know, I called him up and you know, ask
- 16:46Speaker 1: him how his day was on the phone or anything.
- 16:47Speaker 1: But we're cool. It's gotta be kind of rough though,
- 16:49Speaker 1: because you might kick it with him and see him
- 16:51Speaker 1: with his wife, his kids and beating them up in
- 16:53Speaker 1: the mean. It's weird because you know, fight us have
- 16:55Speaker 1: that that own off switch. Either you have it or
- 16:57Speaker 1: you don't. But you know, this is it's just a business.
- 17:00Speaker 1: This is what we're doing. This We do it because
- 17:02Speaker 1: we love to do it, just because we beat each
- 17:04Speaker 1: other up. And the cage doesn't mean we have to
- 17:06Speaker 1: hate each other outside of the cage. And when you
- 17:09Speaker 1: lose though, you yeah, it still it is what it is.
- 17:12Speaker 1: How do you do you have four losses? So how
- 17:15Speaker 1: when you lose? How do you get back up and
- 17:16Speaker 1: be like I prepared for the next one because it's
- 17:18Speaker 1: like that fight is always on even when you lose.
- 17:20Speaker 1: And how did you lose up? I don't know. Well,
- 17:23Speaker 1: if I lose, I'm just like he was the better
- 17:25Speaker 1: guy that night. I did my best, so I'm happy
- 17:27Speaker 1: at the end of the day. I mean, I'm disappointing
- 17:29Speaker 1: in the results, but I'm still happy with myself because
- 17:31Speaker 1: I did the best that I could do. So I
- 17:34Speaker 1: don't put that type of pressure on myself that if
- 17:36Speaker 1: I lose it's the end of the world. Are you
- 17:37Speaker 1: scared to lose, Chris because you're undefeated at the moment. No,
- 17:40Speaker 1: I'm not scared to lose. Man. Uh, it's it's not
- 17:44Speaker 1: an option. Can't be scared of it. It's not gonna happen.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Don't you feel like, especially when you see things like
- 17:49Speaker 1: up here before Floyd was finding everybody wanted him to
- 17:52Speaker 1: lose because they wanted him to have a loss. Do
- 17:53Speaker 1: you feel like people are like, Okay, he's winning too much,
- 17:56Speaker 1: we need to see a loss. Yeah, I mean, I
- 17:58Speaker 1: got I got plenty of your daughters and haters out
- 18:00Speaker 1: there that would love to see me lose. Um, but
- 18:03Speaker 1: that's just fuel for the fire. The great thing about
- 18:06Speaker 1: daughters is that they're always going to be there, so
- 18:08Speaker 1: it's a good motivational two and a half. So I'd
- 18:12Speaker 1: like to shut him up. I don't think people want
- 18:13Speaker 1: to see you lose, and if you're convincingly destroying people,
- 18:18Speaker 1: you know what I mean? I think it's it's different
- 18:19Speaker 1: with Floyd because he's always got haters though yet to
- 18:23Speaker 1: watch that he boxed though, Boy, it doesn't run. He
- 18:28Speaker 1: just he's a good boxer. He understands. He's a great
- 18:30Speaker 1: defensive fighter. Yeah, he understands the game. But then you
- 18:32Speaker 1: got somebody like Connello Alvarez who goes in there and
- 18:34Speaker 1: tried to knock your head off a triple G. Try to.
- 18:36Speaker 1: But he's not boxing. He's browling. That's what he's doing.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Whatever you say, I'm not going to disagree. Yeah, disagree
- 18:49Speaker 1: with you that for you. Anthony Ramball Johnson, you also
- 18:52Speaker 1: were suspended as well, and now you're back. Was there
- 18:54Speaker 1: a time when you thought you weren't gonna make it back?
- 18:56Speaker 1: What do you suspended for? Tell Us said it was
- 19:02Speaker 1: suspected domestic violence, but the charges were dropped. Yeah, no,
- 19:06Speaker 1: I you know what, during that time, I knew I
- 19:10Speaker 1: didn't do anything wrong, But whenever it comes down to
- 19:14Speaker 1: something like that, you just never know what's going to happen.
- 19:16Speaker 1: And I was depressed. I can't lie. I was super
- 19:19Speaker 1: depressed and just didn't know what was going to happen.
- 19:21Speaker 1: Because you know, when anybody says, you know they've been
- 19:25Speaker 1: hit by a male, everybody automatically believes it no matter what.
- 19:32Speaker 1: And that's the part that that just killed me on
- 19:35Speaker 1: the inside. And you know, I felt like a lot
- 19:37Speaker 1: of people didn't have my back. But once the charges
- 19:40Speaker 1: were dropped, then all of a sudden, everybody shows back up.
- 19:45Speaker 1: You know, they're like, oh, he could fight against yea
- 19:47Speaker 1: friends again, Yeah, yeah, yeah. So But at the same time,
- 19:50Speaker 1: I also that made me realize who was really down
- 19:53Speaker 1: for me and who wasn't. So it made me made
- 19:56Speaker 1: me Yeah, I'm just opened up my eyes even more.
- 19:58Speaker 1: But anything you do to him, because the mythic bot
- 20:00Speaker 1: if you just restrain her, like he put a move
- 20:02Speaker 1: on her, he put a hold on her. You know,
- 20:05Speaker 1: it's crazy. It's crazy. And like I said, I know,
- 20:10Speaker 1: but it's just not even him. No, yeah, but it's
- 20:17Speaker 1: just a sad thing that, you know, people can say
- 20:20Speaker 1: something and automatically everybody believes that. You know, no matter
- 20:23Speaker 1: how the media wants to put it, they're gonna put
- 20:25Speaker 1: it in. People just gonna automatically think that's how it
- 20:27Speaker 1: went down or that's what happened. And once again, as men,
- 20:32Speaker 1: we have to try and prove that we didn't do
- 20:34Speaker 1: anything so and that that's that's yeah, and that's innocent. Yeah. Now, Chris,
- 20:40Speaker 1: you said you didn't want to talk about it, but
- 20:41Speaker 1: we have some stuff here about your chair, I'm sure.
- 20:54Speaker 1: But we appreciate you guys with joining us. A good
- 20:56Speaker 1: luck on the fight. Thank you. What is it next?
- 21:04Speaker 1: Are your weekend? Yeah? Right, that's the breakfast club? Is
- 21:07Speaker 1: Chris Wide like a wide man, like a whet together
- 21:15Speaker 1: and Anthony Jones and appreciate you guys. Thank you,
