  Speaker 1: Hey, what are boxing fans? This is the Rope of
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Dove Radio podcast. I'm your host, Chris Carlson. We are
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: live on a Wednesday afternoon. I hope everybody's doing okay.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: We will talk about some action that happened last weekend. Obviously,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Richardson Hitchens leads the way with a very easy victory,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: looking really good, especially that jab against cambosas Andy Cruz
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: will talk a little bit about briefly talk about some
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: guys that are past their prime, one Francisco Estrada and
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: especially no need to don'nare, So we won't spend a
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: whole lot of time with that. And also I got
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: a message from someone that brought up a good point
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: about I guess you could say an air I made
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: when not covering a certain fighter. So we will discuss
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: that as well this week and weekend, because you know tomorrow,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: well I suppose it's gonna be pretty early in the morning.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Brian Norman Junior returns on ESPN plus Milanek on Saturday.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: You Faia Rodriguez on Saturday. There is some more fights
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: as well. Nothing stands way out as far as a
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: big time fight, but I'm guessing that Norman fight will
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: be pretty entertaining. And then you know, we do have
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: some current fight news. You know, well, what will Hitchins
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and do or Hitchins do next? What will Andy Kruz
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: do next? Is you know there's a potential title shot.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Would that happen? A little bit more news out of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the David Benevitez camp involving his potentially his next fight.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. And then in a clap back, Oscar de
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: la Hoya said something about Canelo and Crawford that I
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: hope he's just bullshitting or got you know, bad information,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: or if it's true, that they change it. But if
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: it's true, it's like what are we doing here? But
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know it to be true because it is
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: coming from you know, Oscar de la Joya, who clearly
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: you know is mad at the media, mad in general
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: about them being paid off than in other things. So yeah,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: we'll definitely jump into the recap first. If this is

• 4:14
  Speaker 1: like I said, we will get into some of the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: stuff going on this weekend, because there there is some action,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: no doubt. But we'll start in the Ring on the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: card from the Theater in Madison Square Garden. The main
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: event Hitchens and Cambosa right off the bat, just a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: stiff and steady jabs and a couple of nice right
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: hands from Hitchens. You know, Cambosa's had these little minor
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: stints of of success if you want to call it that,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: like a jab in some body work. But you could
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: even tell after the second or third round. You could
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: see camboss was getting touched up. I mean, you could
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: see the writing on the wall. By the third and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: fourth round. He got the jab, you got the pot
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: shot with the right hand to the head. You know,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Camboss in the third did land some good body shots
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: and a nice counter right hand to the head in exchange,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't anything. I didn't give Cambos's one round,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: you know, leg in the fourth round beyond a few
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: decent lands, Hitchins just landing the cleaner punches. I will
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: say this. In the fifth round Richardson Hitchins, you know,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: in the second half really started landing heavy punches. And
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: you know, give credit to Camboses for fighting back and whatnot.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: But and even in the sixth he was showing life
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: in spots, but just a better overall shot. The seventh, Yeah,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: there was some two way stuff. Like I said, I
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: want to give King Bosa's credit. He didn't just quit
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: in there, but you know, he was just getting beat
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and then you come to the eighth round, a left
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: hand to the body drops cam Bosa's. He didn't have
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: much to say as far as you know it was
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: a bad stoppage or anything like that. You know, just
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: a really great performance by Richardson Hitchins. Like like I said,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: his jab is one of the better jabs in boxing.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He just he is a very good fighter. You know,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: he's got a pretty good defense. Uh you know, once
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: it gets up close. He used the high guard. He
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: did kind of step around and just use minor barely
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: even pivoting, but just minor you know, movement, just to
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: stay a little bit out of range. But they're to
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: still deliver a punch. So overall, the fight went pretty
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: much how I thought it would be. I was wondering
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: about the stoppage. I didn't think that he would get it,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: per se. I was favoring the unanimous decision. Excuse me,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: obviously it was well on its way to the United decision.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: But you know, beyond like I said, Cambosa is having
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: a little success here and there and showing some heart
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and staying in there when he was taking a fair
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: amount of punishment, shouts out to him, where does he
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: go from now? Cambosa's are from here? I don't know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: you know, like he's he's done really well financially. It's
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: hard to tell a guy who's fought really good talent
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: and just lost to just hang him up. He still
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: has he probably still has some fight left in him,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: but it's all about what levels he wants to fight at.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: I've even seen multiple fighters of late call him out
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: that were a little like a zine. They're they're they
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: were younger and that type of thing. And and I
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: don't know if he wants to be, you know, that
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: type of gatekeeper. You can make an argument he's already
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: in gatekeeper mode, but not really based off his competition.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: I've seen people say he's a gatekeeper. Maybe he is now,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: but I wouldn't, you know, I wouldn't call him a
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: gatekeeper just yet as far as these last couple of fights,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: because you know, he's just not he's not gatekeeping yet.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: He's not fighting super young prospers that's trying to prove
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: himself to become a contender, you know, so and you know,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: the further remove, like I said last week, the further
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: removed we'd get from that tale Femo fight. It just
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: it was a crazy upset. Clearly Lopez wasn't taking the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: fight serious. That's not to take anyway any you know,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: any credit away from you know, Gambosa's he did his thing.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: It was actually a really fun fight to watch. Tao
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: just fought in a manner he normally doesn't fight, and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: he caught him on a shitty night and not even
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: a bad night actually just a not a fully focused
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: tale obviously, but credit to him. He did get the
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: job done. He fought Hani back to back, fought Maxi Hughes,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: which I thought he lost that fight fout Lomachenko. I
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: guess you could say his last fight. If he were
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: to stay on that level, it would be a gate
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: keeper mode. And maybe, like I said, that's where he's
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: at now. I still think he could fight guys that
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: are contenders already, that are just trying to get to
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: that next level. But when you fight you know Teyo, Femo, Haini,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Loma Shanko and now Richard Richardson Hitchins and even Max Hughes,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: I just don't say that that's you were a gatekeeper
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: for all those guys. You know, I just don't agree
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: with that, but maybe that's what he'll turn into. I mean,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: his response when called out by younger fighters was like, hey, man,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: go fight somebody, you know where you can prove yourself.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: So we'll see, you know, we'll see where he goes.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: As far as Hitchens, you know, Teyo Femo and Hani
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: has been thrown out there. He made it known that
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: he's a free agent, and Eddie Hern you know, to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: take too kind of that, but he I'm not he
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: kind of I don't know. I'm not saying he backtrack
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: because he is a free agent, but he did kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: of backtrack. I got some quotes I think from I
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: think it was the boxing voice that, you know, some
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: of the things he said. All of a sudden, He's like, well, no,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: it's not that I don't you know, it's not that
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: he doesn't want to stay with Mattroom, but I don't know,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: like in the ring, I'm a free agent. You know,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: some people were pretty down on that. Obviously Eddie was,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: and I get it, like you know, but this is
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: what he said in the boxing voice. He said Richardson
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: basically on Eddie hearn the free agency situation. I don't
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: really want to get into that with me and Eddie.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Eddie gave me opportunity when I needed it. He gave
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: me the structure when I needed most. Being in talks
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: now with Devin Haney and the Teo females starting to
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: now be become a boxing star. I don't think he's
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: a boxing star, but become one obviously. I want to
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: continue the relationship with Eddie. I love Eddie. I respect
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: him as a man. He's always been a gentleman to me.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: So he's saying that, But clearly Eddie didn't think it
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: was too professional or gentleman like to say that he's
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: a free agent right in the ring. After you know
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: what Eddie had it helped him out, I had him
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: on a deal whatever. And I and I get it
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: from Eddie's perspective to an extent. But we'll see where
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: he goes. If he of those two fights you know
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: are available, that'd be great, that would be phenomenal. But
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: we'll see, you know what I mean, We'll see if
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: we if we get there, we'll see if those fights
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: get done. And and like I said, Eddie was pretty
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: pissed to the point where he's like well, what was
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: this quote. He's basically like saying, well, he's not going
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: to do a fighting lessons with me, like Turkey said
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: he didn't want to do a fighting lessons with me,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: which is still kind of like okay, well then you
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: don't really have any room for like, you know, professionalism
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: or being mad at that, because now you're going with that,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: like there is part of it is just like taking
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: it out of the chin. Oh well, you know, not
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: the end of the world type thing. But I don't know,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: it just was uh but like I said, Lopez or
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Hani would be great for oh, here we go. Oh
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: he said, I feel disrespected because it's not I. Oh,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I did feel disrespected because it's not him. It's just
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: the dogs around him. Even though he did say it,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: he said he headlined him in Orlando Vegas where we
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: lost a lot of money. Richardson's a good kid. He's
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: just got some snakes around him. So he was, like
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I said, he was not too happy about that, and
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: like I said, I get it. But here's a little
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: bit more Golden boy ceo Oscar de la Jollo. This
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: is for Ring magazine calls for Richardson Hitchens to discuss
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: working together. In response to Eddie's Hearn comments to the Ring,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Hearn express disappointment but confirmed Turkey told him he'll only
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: work with Hitchens if Mattroom is involved. And see, now
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I think that's weak too, you know. So if you
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: can say, oh, well, you know, it probably shouldn't be
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: this way, or you know, to me to turn right
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: around and then do that is like, oh, well, fu too,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: then you know, I don't know. I thought it was
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: a little weak. But either way, hopefully Hitchins, who look
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: damn good against a fighter by the way, he was
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: supposed to look damn good at but but he's look
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: really good lately. So the last two fights he's looked
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: top like on the top level for him, that's for sure.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: His jab is really really good. I'd love to see
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: him in a matchup like that against another skilled, high
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: level guy. I think it's you know, I'm really really
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: looking forward to that. If it were to I shouldn't
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: say looking forward to it, because we don't know exactly
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: what's gonna come up that so I don't want to
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: get too happy, you know what I mean. Oops, So
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Andy Cruz was winning the fight third round, there was
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: he basically just started off on and like really you know,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: doing his thing, big right hands. I think it was
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I think that was that was that was it a
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: right Yeah, it was the right hands, because the right
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: hands were actually doing the most punishment. He was hitting
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: them with everything, but the right hand especially repeatedly dropped them.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Then like hooks and uppercuts in a late right hand
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: dropped him. So he dropped them twice and then basically
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: two rounds later in the fifth round another It was
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: kind of an action packed moment. You know, old boy
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: wasn't really laying a lot back obviously, but big like
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: like I said, cooks uppercuts in, a big right hand
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: finished the fight. So Cruise, you know, Crew's got it in,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: did his thing. Those right hands, like I said, were
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: the We're the ones that were really having the effect.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: The boy was pretty tough though, I'll give him that.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: But Martia, now we'll see if Martya and Cruz, if
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: that fight can happen, because you know it's supposed to happen.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: You know that that is something that you know, sanctioning
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: belt wise, it's it can happen now, So it's the
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: ibf ah, Well, it's it actually, I think it's wouldn't
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: it be for like, actually, let me check. I think
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, I think that he I think he'll
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: be the mando because wasn't that the well, the final eliminator,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: as we know, can be skewed clearly, but hopefully that
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: that didn't and let's see if they can make that fight.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Obviously it's two different promotional companies, but that would be
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a very good fight, a huge step up really for
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: both of them. But yeah, sign me up for that fight.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: I think that would be very interesting to see it,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: and it should be next you know. I think that
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: would be I think that would be dope. I would
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: like that a lot. You also had Tremona knocked it
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: out in the first round. That really really wasn't much
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: there as far as like, you know, I don't know that.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Some of the undercard fights were pretty shitty obviously, but
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: you know, he did his job, so shouts out to him.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: You also had uh Nonino ton Air fight over the weekend.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: He got a unanimous that like a technical unanimous decision
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: basically donaire. I think it was his. I think it
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: was this right eye. It was a headbutt, and there
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: was a few of them. I'd say three or four
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: of them something like that, maybe maybe more. I think
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: it was above his right eye let me look at
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: mid Yeah, above his right eye. And basically, you know,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Donaire said that like, hey, dude, that you know, I
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: can't see out of this ship. And they went obviously
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to the cards and you know, did he look you know,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: did he look great or anything like that? No, you
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: know he didn't. He didn't look great. Moses uh knocked
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: out Carl Rogers too. On that undercard. I did forget
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: to mention that, not that it's you know, like I said,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: that was just kind of like, eh, okay, that's happening,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: you know it. It's It wasn't like I don't know it.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: The the undercard basically sucked pretty much, to be honest
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: with you, but you know, those who were supposed to
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: win did their thing. But yeah, you know it was uh,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: it was like a let me see years like maybe
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: like two out of the nine rounds. I think it
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: was like, let me look at my story card. I
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: think it was like I gave Campos and don there
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: yeah to two rounds. So you know, it is what
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: it is. He's back. We'll see how long he lasts
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: didn't didn't look all that great. Took him a little
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: while the motor well kind of to get the motor running,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: but you know, it is what it is. Also one
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Francisco Estrada, he actually well, as we know, you know,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: he's getting up there in age now and you know,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: this is part of boxing. This is like on the
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: other side of the boxing where it's just shit happens,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: you know, and he just he just came back. He's
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: probably looking for a big fight. He you know, handled
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: this dude ursay uh. I think he had like three knockdowns.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't score it, but it was pretty, you know,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: pretty one sided. You know that that was a pretty uh,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: pretty easy fight to score if you were gonna score it,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: but I didn't. I did not. Also from the twenty
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: three hundred Arena in Philly, there were some interesting fights.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Mercado beat Pizzarro. The scorecards read one was a draw
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: and then one with ninety seven ninety three, ninety six,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: ninety four for Mercado. I did think Mercado won, and
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of it was his power punching.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: You know, you had Pizarro landing the jab. They both
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: went to the body. Well, I think it was pretty clear,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: like the jabs were the biggest thing, like I said,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: for U Pizzarro, and he definitely landed a fair amount
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: of those. It was sixty one to twenty four, but
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: one fourteen of seventy seventy four by Mercado as power shots.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: He really just kind of just kind of took over
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: the fight, you know, down the stretch. It was a
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: really good back and forth fight though. But yeah, I
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: would say like the big, the more, the most powerful shots,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: that that's you know, that's what that's what did it.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: And also there was a woman's fight Leanna Cruz and
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Regina and Javas, and Javas put Cruise on the canvas
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: in the first round and they were getting it in. Dude,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: they were getting it in. Like if you look at it,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a ten round fight. Crew Chavaz through
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: six eighty nine to four point fifty eight. But Cruise
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: landed one ninety two to one ninety one, almost basically
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: forty two of her overall shots. You know, that's that's
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: tough to do. And and they were they were messing
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: with the jab a little bit, but it was mostly
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: power shots. In eighty four to forty six from Cruise
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: to the Body. That was a fun fight to watch.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I did enjoy that fight. Those were some good fights,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: you know. I I do appreciate that twenty three hundred building.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: I think what else there was a cruiserweight, undefeated cruiserweight
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: who got to win. I think it was a late
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: knockdown Leonardo Masque or something like that. Oh and I someone,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: like I mentioned earlier, someone pointed out to me that
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: last week I forgot to talk about not that Tani okay.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: And it's funny because the second also Arislani Alvarez, who's
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: like he was a He was that guy who won
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: the Olympics in two thousand, the gold medal in the
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: last Olympics he he won as well. I forgot to
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: mention that. So it's funny because right when I was
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: done with the show I had, I was reading from
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: a scorecard, like looking at a scorecard, right, and I
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: thought that I was done with those notes, so I
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: just kind of put him to the side. And as
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I was gathering to see which ones I wanted to
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: keep and throw away because sometimes in certain fights, I'll
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: keep the scorecard. And I looked and on the back
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: of it was was Nakatani and it's like, oh, I
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: wanted to talk about that fight, so yeah, thanks for
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: reminding me. I did. I did forget to talk about
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: that last week against Nashida. Hey, Nashena showed some heart, dude,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Like he was landing in exchanges at times he was
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, he was still trying to fight with like
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: a closed eye, but Nakatsani was getting the better of
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: him in the exchanges and those hooks and uppercuts KO win.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: But it was competitive. Like I would say, I would say, like,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: oops the hell. I would say, like the first I
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: think that. Let me look at that scorecard. I kept
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: it round the third, I would say, the third and
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: the fourth are rounds that you could give to Nashido.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm That's that was my thoughts. But yeah,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: junto you know, I it was a unification. I really
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: wish that we could get you know, the anyway fight
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: next or by the end of the year. But it
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: sounds like the way they talked about it, you know
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: early in the spring, that it's going to be next spring.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: But he did look good, like I said, he.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Was just unloading these shots, dude, just basically landing anything
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: he wanted, but I mentioned Ishidah many he did show
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: some heart.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Gotta respect that because he was he was fighting all
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: the way to the end, and dude had a closed eye,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So good call, though, much
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: appreciated when people give me, you know, a reminder criticism,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: as long as this constructive criticism, I appreciate that. So
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: definitely happy that you brought that up, because I did
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: forget to talk about Nakazzani, who you know, is a
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: top ten fighter and many people's eyes, and he said,
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: he's an explosive, young, you know, guy who's in his prime,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and that's why you really want to you know, you
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: don't want to see anyway get out of his prime.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: And I mean it's gonna happen at some point, but
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: before this fight, you know, and I think some of
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: us are kind of mad because last year they had
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: said that, you know, basically the fight would have already
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: happened by now, or it was gonna happen this summer
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: or whatever, because they were supposed to be on the
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: same card and that didn't work. But you know, it
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: is what it is. But Na Katsani, Yes, that was
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: that was really that's a good call I did forget
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: and also tension uh Thesakawasakawa. He looked good against Victor Santio,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: that was uh. I mean he beat him up pretty
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: good obviously, and Sancio was a good pretty good fighter.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Doesn't have a lot of power. Was in a very
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: competitive fight with the Shida, and you know, he doesn't
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: have a lot of good names per se as far
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: as like who he beat, you know, but that was
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: a good performance too. I thought I might add to that.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: So Brian Norman Junior is gonna fight like in the
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: wee hours of the morning, okay, Sasaki, It's on ESPN plus.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: You know, I think that I think it's gonna be
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: like a spirited fight. While at lasts I think Brian
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Norman Junior will knock him out, for like, I believe
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: in that. I do think he will do that, but
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I I think it could be it could be really fun,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: you know, while we get there. You know, I do
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: think that it should be a pretty fun your fight
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: or just two dudes mixing it up. If you want
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: to go in against Norman. Vandel has it plus four
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: to ten. Right now, there is a Semmesry and Aronetta
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: is a really close fight going on too. That's like
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: a plus one oh six minus one forty, so that
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: that should be a really you know, competitive fight anyway
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: on paper. Let's see here, So you know, we we
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: have like Melanecki returning, there's some stuff on that undercard
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: as well. You Faire Rodriguez. That should be a good fight.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Kind of looking forward to that. I also think Lorenzo
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Simpson and John Tucker. I think Tucker is gonna win
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: the fight, but I bet she's Simpson, who is a
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: fairly live dog. I've been in him around like the
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: plus two fifty plus two sixty, plus two seventy I
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: think is the highest. Let me check right now on
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: pro boxing odds. Yeah, still right around that. FanDuel has
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: him plus two sixty. So if you like that, jump
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: on that. Personally, you know, I do like John Tucker
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: in that fight, but you know, it's just something to
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: keep an eye on. What other fights do we have?
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: The Walker Taylor fight, Uh, that should be a good
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: fight on paper anyway. Taylor the highest I see him
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: as like a plus two hundred two ten something like that. So,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: like I said this week, and it doesn't like like uh,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: David Stevens, who's a very slight favorite over Peter Kamukov Kmukov.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: That's like a pick him fight. So it is one
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: of those weekends that, sure, you know, it may not
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: blow you away, right, but I bet you we just
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: get some good fights. Brandon Lee is fighting as well.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: You know, he's fighting a guy who you know, who's
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: basically like fought guys like Cabarero and I know he
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: fought Martaya and uh who else did he fight some
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: unbeaten a war as I believe Omar Warres. So you know,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I think it's just getting Brandon Lee a fight, you know,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: and it'd be nice to get him, get him going.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Basically he fought in the summer last year, so you know,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: he's just in a fight. I guess you could say,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: I mean to be honest with you, just to be honest,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: but yeah, the joh Tucker Lorenzo Smith Veto is taking
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: on an unbeaten guy that doesn't have a lot of
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: power guard seelick or something like that. I've seen him
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: fight just like Actually, I think I watched some of
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: the Joelle Julio fight if I remember, it was a
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: few years back, and I've just seen like highlights of them.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: But you know, Veto is he's probably gonna win this fight.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: He's coming off you know, a close fight. So yeah,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: like I said, I'm not trying to like pump up
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: these fights and be like, dude, this weekend's gonna be crazy,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: But there are just times when these these weekends just
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: pop off. Dude, it'll be interesting to see uh Peter
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: mcrel and uh Balluta. You know that's just like it's
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: just there. You know, it'll just probably be a good scrap.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: You know. Once again, I'm not trying to say, man,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: this weekend is gonna be awesome. But the the Galileafaya
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: fight I am looking forward to. I think he's a
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: pretty good fighter. He's obviously coming up that Sonny Edwards
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: late last year, coming off you know, big ass win
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: for him and Francisco Rodriguez. You know, I think he'll
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: fight him competitive. He's a guy that actually, well he
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: made it ten rounds against Nakatani. Now did he win
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: a bunch of rounds? It was six to four. No,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: he did fight a somewhat competitive fight even longer ago
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: against Kazuto Ioka, But so you know, I did I
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: like by decision. I think I think I'm gonna go
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: by a decision with you, Faya. But Francissler Rodrie is
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: a good fighter. You know. It's not like he's been
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: stopped a bunch, right, and when he did get stopped
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: and actually, Jesus, I forgot about the I remember the
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: I forgot about the Flint Days fight. I remember the Yeah,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: I mean he got stopped like against roaming gets all
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: all over back in two thousand and thirteen. So you know,
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: I don't really look at that as like, oh dude,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: you know, so that's why I have it. I have
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: if I uh, winning that fight, but I could see
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: like a little bit of competitives in there. But you know,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: coming off that Sonny Edwards fight where he basically just
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: ran through him one every round, I believe in my scorecard.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: So so yeah, he uh, he's kind of the biggest
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: fight I'm looking forward to. You know, when it comes
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: to the to the weekend, there's a just a mixed
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: bag of everything and we'll see, you know, hopefully we
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: get some bangers in there. There's also that WBC Boxing
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Grand Prix on Friday night that uh com com u god,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I can't remember that's who's Stevens. How you say his
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: last name? That's on his own though. Friday night, Camukov
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: and Stevens, that should be a good fight. I do
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: like that fight. And that's that's about it for the weekend.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: I think video win might knock him out, maybe not.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: I think Tucker will win by decision. But let's just
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: hope that, you know, shit just pops off and it
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: turns out to be you know, like multiple fights that
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: are just great. You know what else you got here?
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I think that's about it for the weekend, I believe. Yeah.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about Canelo Crawford in Oscire de Joya
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: what he said just in general, he was saying that,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: you know, all the ring magazine writers are off the
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: media or is paid off, I should say in the
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: media in general, the way he put it, is paid off,
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: and that people aren't going to talk about Eddie Renoso
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: or talk about because you know, they've had a lot
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: of people busted in his camp. And so he said
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: there should be an investigation, and and he also said,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna talk to Eddie, I'm gonna talk
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: to Al and we're not going anywhere. And you know,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: he basically kind of looks like he's on the out
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: with Turkey. And when you say stuff like you know,
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: they're paid off and they're not going to say anything.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: And you know, now, to be fair, if you go
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: back and listen to what Oscar said when he was
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: selling the Ring magazine to Turkey, you know, he talked
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: pretty well of him, right, So that part's pretty contradicting
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: because it's like, oh, really, okay, well, if you don't
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: like the scenario that's going on, what the hell did
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: you sell the Ring? Then you know it is what
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: it is, right. But so he said some other stuff, right,
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: But his clap back included Canelo Crawford is going to
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: be in the afternoon and they're going to do a
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: UFC event at night. Now, it may be completely bullshit,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: it may be maybe it's true, but they're going to
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: change it. You know, I really don't know. But if
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: they because they're gonna you know, it just got announce
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: that it's going to be in uh, it's going to
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: be in a stadium, Allegiance Stadium where the Raiders play.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: So if it were during the b during the afternoon,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: and that would be college football really all the way
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: in by that time. That'd be ridiculous. It would just
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: be ridiculous. Now I don't know it to be true,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: but if it's in the afternoon, and if that were
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: to be true, that'd be just silly, right. But also
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: like if it's in the afternoon and you say it's
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: big a fight, it is, but then it's gonna make
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: room it's in the afternoon for the UFC to have
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: a bed at night, that would be acid. However, I'm
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: not the type to just believe Oscar either. And I
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: could also see if if Turkey got some public criticism
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: for the time, I could see his ass somehow changing it.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. So yeah, I've already gave
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: my thoughts on you know, it being on Netflix, which
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: is phenomenal. You know, the stadium vibe when you have
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: a guy like Canelo and Crawford, who's a perfect B
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: side for Canelo, that should do really well there as
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: far as attendance. But yeah, I just hope it's not
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: during the day. That would be ridiculous. Oh. Also, Benavidez
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: and Calliam Smith are in negotiations. I first heard this
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: from an interview where Eddie Hearn said as much right.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: He said that you know, we do have an offer
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: and this is from Ring Magazine that it's it's in
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: play for October. Eddie Hearn did say that the PBC
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: gave Calliam Smith an offer, right, and they're targeting Vegas
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: or Dallas, and you know Benavid has said I also,
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: you know, if if there was a counter offer, I
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: would be willing to go to the UK if it's right.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: But you know that they're targeting Dallas or Vegas and
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: they're negotiating it. You know there, I guess Samson said
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: that Anthony Yard, who stared to Frank Warren, would be
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: a consideration if that deal falls through. But if that
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: deal felt through, my guess is that's the fight you
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: know that would be made Kelly Smithy Yard. But maybe
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: that's just me. I thought that was the fight that
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: was going to happen, to be honest with you, but
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: basically said, you know, you know, Eddie Hearn, if they
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: want to make the deal, we're one phone call away.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: And so you know, given the landscape, giving the actual fights,
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: we know the canal fight's not going to happen for now.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: If it ever happens, which you know, I wouldn't get
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: helps up. That would be a good that would be
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: a good fight. That'd be a good fight in a
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: string of really good fights. So also I honesed on
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: Ring Magazine today that that the TKO Boxing plans the
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: stage twelve events per year for the next five years,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: including four mega matchups per year. So maybe per season,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: maybe there'll be two in the summer. Who knows, they
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: won't go as heavy during football or something. I have
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: no clue, but so basically once a month or it
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: says twelve events per year, So like I said, maybe
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: in the summer they double up or something like that.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: So we'll see what kind of events these will be,
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: you know, and who's on the roster, and maybe they're
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: not looking to build up a big roster and they're
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: just gonna, you know, go little by little. And I
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: don't really know. I don't know. I really don't know
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: exactly how that's gonna go. So anyway, do do do do?
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: So let's get into some other fight news and you know,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: boxing Twitter stuff and all that. Like I said, you know,
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: we now know a lot of a Legion stadium that's
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: where the fight's taking place. Oh, also, him Mungia's b
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: sample returned, and you know it, it was the same
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: as the A side or the A side, the A sample.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Here's a quote from Deontay Wilder Quitting was never an option.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Boxing isn't a game. It's survival. He's got a fight
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: coming out, not this weekend, but next weekend. I don't know.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: There was a quote here on this zone that Edgar
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Berlanga has himself beating, so this is what he thinks.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: A prime Nigel Ben a prime jokel Zagi Canelo want
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: to rematch in a prime Felix Trinidad, that's who he thinks.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Uh he he would beat. So like we've seen you
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: in your prime? When are you gonna get good victories?
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: To say that you're gonna beat all these dudes, like
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: it's just it's just funny, not really, No, oh yeah.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Adamsins called out George campbos Is the fight September twenty fifth.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't look too much into that. It
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: is what it is. Do I So someone messes me?
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: Do I think that Sasaki is a like a worthy
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: opponent for Norman? And you know, I do think he's
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: gonna you know, like land punches and all that, and
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: I think it will be fun. Like I mentioned, it'll
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: be entertaining. I just think like the the more accurate,
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: shorter punch, like the more the better, not just the
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: better puncher, but like I said, the more accurate, the shorter,
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: the I just that that's gonna be his undoing, you know,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: whether he deserves We're gonna find out if he deserves
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: to be in there or not, you know, obviously, you know,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: so we will see how that goes. So, yeah, with
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: which Hitchinson. Now you have Russell play you Lopez and Hitchins.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: That's that's what the division looks like. This is Adrian
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: Delgatto talking about Richard Hitchins to exactly what he was
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: supposed to do. He was always had a great jab
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: that sets its tone by controlling range, shirtedness and well
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: placed sharp punches. Ended up closing the Shoy show. Excuse me,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: poised patient dangerous when he walked down Cambosas. Yeah, I
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: did like how he he did that. He definitely like
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: he had these moments where he pushed them back. I
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: really hope he gets big fight. Oh yeah. There was
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: a little like box wreck scenario with Virgil Ortiz and
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: there was an apology basically like there was a fight
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: or two fights. Ye had two results. This is from
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Bunch Bunch Boxing earlier today, two results of a boxing
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: record of Virginal Orties were erroneously changed in no contest.
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: The air has been since corrected. So they were saying
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: sorry about the confusion. Oh yeah. Edwin de los Santo's
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: parted ways with Samson. He said there was a quote
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: for Coppinger. Unfortunately. What bothered me was the most that
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: I was offered fifty thousand to continue to fight. My
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: coach asked for three hundred thousand because Keishaan was four
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: point three overweight, so he said that basically he thought
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: he should get more money out of it in that scenario.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I guess it came as a pretty big surprise.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: So you know, kind of surprise when it comes to that. Okay.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: This is also from Brunch Boxing. The WBC will order
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: about between interim WBC Junior minaweight Virgil Ortase and Sir
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: Hey Boachuck. So there's gonna be a rematch there. I
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: don't know how I feel about that, but it's not
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: like it's not a good fight, you know what I mean, Boachuck.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: I think it's basically Bocher came out of a really
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: shitty performance, and I'm sure he'll get up for this fight,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: but he did come off a fight where he didn't
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: look good at all, So you know, it just seems
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: like kind of been there, done that. But you have
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: to admit that the fight probably warranted a rematch, So
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. This is Broadway, Joel. He said
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: that you know Edwin de los Santo's did not sign
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: with Jay Prince. It sounds like they were close to
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: a deal, but it actually hasn't happened just yet, so yeah,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Oh here's Naji said, Damn Edwin, he
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: looked out for you talking about Sampson. You were drained
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: and more unlikely would have got your ass whooped. But
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: that could affect your career, he said, whole game. I
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: will say this de los Santo's no matter what would
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: happen in the week or whatever, or in that fight,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: he did look drained. Though his face looked drained, I
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: will say that he definitely looked drained. I do have
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: to think that darn Ennis says two things I ain't
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: doing hate not nobody and waiting on nobody. Ooh, we
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: heard this from. I believe it was Cambosa's camp. I
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: think it was his father. He said the ring size
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: for the whole Berlanga Hira's card will be eighteen by
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: eighteen instead of twenty by twenty. Umm, here's a tweet.
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: I can't tell it's from because it's cut off. Turkey
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: used Oscar, but Oscar cash the checks. Then Turkey bought
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: the ring ring from him, And now Oscar is salty.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: I'd be salty too, but let's be real. He played
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: his part and got paid. Can't cry now, Like I said,
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know tweeted that, but yeah, I agree. Dillion
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: White does sound like it's one hundred percent on with Moses.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: And you have a Kakachi and Ford, nick Ball and Goodman.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: You got uh Adelai and Hergevic. So it's kind of
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: interesting there, kind of a little interesting card there. I
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: kind of kind of like that that. I think it's
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: a good step up. We'll see what Dillion White, you know,
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: has left, but I think it's a good step up
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: for Moses Bakrahan September thirteenth, eyeballs, the one fifty four
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: pounder who shocked the world beaten Tim Zu. We'll see
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: is he back now? Between June twenty eighth and July nineteenth,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: the Zone Boxing has three pay per views in addition
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: to either the annual or Monkey subscription. What are we
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: doing here? Yeah? I mean you have Jake Paul Chabas,
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: you have Usik Dubois, and then you have the Berlanga,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: Shiraz and Shakur zippot of it. The thing is, and
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: you know what those twenty five dollars you know, those
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: twenty five dollars pay views are out the window now,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: just like that. You know, there was so much whole
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: home about it. There was so much well it wasn't
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: he home. The media was just like, oh dude, look
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: what he's doing for us. You know, first of all,
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: I knew that one stand and two it is true,
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: like the Usak Dubois. Should that be a pay per
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: view in the US? You know, it is what it is? Right,
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: it is what it is. You knew Jake Paul Chabas
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: was going to be a pay per view, But should
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: that be a pay per view? You know overseas probably not,
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: But I understand that. But I do wish they could
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: find a way not to have that. Chakorza Pata sharaz
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: Erlanga on pay per view. That would have been just
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: a good ring one, just straight up. And at some
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: point you can't do just pay per view. And I
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: know they're aren't they doing like a two for three,
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Like if you buy two out of three, we'll give
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: you it's only ninety bucks or one hundred dollars. So okay,
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: it's still only forty five fifty bucks. But still it's
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: like it's the zone's already a paywall, and if you
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: want to go off of streaming like streaming competition, it's
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: the largest paywall, like considering what it offers, it's by
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: far the largest pay So you're already having to pay
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: for a sub. Okay, cool, But when do we get
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: some other stuff on there? It's just anything to do
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: with Turkey and Sadi. It's all pay per view for
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: the pretty much. It's only been one none pay per
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: view correct with the zero, right, I think that's true.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: That's really bad. It's just how it goes back to
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: growing the sport. How do you grow the sport at
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: the side, you're gonna do it? Uh j Row brought
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: up a good point. It is ridiculous that top rank
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: the on Twitter have blocked media outlet brunch Boxing. It's
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: a shame that top rank is excluding a credible media outlet.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: Why would you exclude a platform that speaks favorably on
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: so many of your fighters, like in you Way and
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Mason and Carrington. Yeah, that's that's pretty ridiculous. That is
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: pretty ridiculous. What else have we got here? Now? Is
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: that Moses in August? Is that a pay per view? Here?
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: Is that going to be a pay per view here?
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: I could see why it'd be a PA review in
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: the UK? I get that, but is that going to
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: be a pay per view here? It does sound like
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: here's another one from brunch Boxing, rayvars Ray Vargas is
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: expected to make his return to the ring in August
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: against Carlos Castro. So we'll see, we will see. Yeah.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: So here it is so if you buy two out
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: of three pay per views, they can be bundled for
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: basically ninety five dollars. So you're paying almost fifty dollars
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: for the pay per views. So between yeah, so I
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: mean between June twenty eighth and once again, three out
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: of four weekends in a row. Is that is that true?
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: Because that's so July okay. So the other of June,
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: so that's next weekend is that Paul fight, and then
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: you skip. Yeah, so three out of four weekends they
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: have pay per views, and if you buy two out
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: of the three and you bundle it, okay. So so
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: it's sixt they're sixty dollars each, twenty five dollars in
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: the UK. I believe that's what I'm looking at. So
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: so you're looking at sixty dollars if you don't if
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: you only want to rent one of them with sixty dollars,
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: if you want to rent two of them, it's ninety
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: or ninety five. It's just like I said, it's better
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: than seventy five. We get it. But and people will say, oh,
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: they're doing a huge favor. To an extent, they are,
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: but some of these fights they put on pay review
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be on pay per view. I mean there was
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: fights like in that Fox deal with PBC, they had
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: four pay per views the first year. I watched three
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: out of the four in the theaters. So I was
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: for those three, I was paying seventy five dollars total,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: you know, But yet they weren't the same media members
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: weren't talking that up you know, they weren't saying, hey, dude,
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: this is how you say money. You know, I did
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: get some shtick last week for how I handled the
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: loma Chenko thing. Well, first of all, I forgot Nakatani right,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: and that was because it was kind of a rush
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: show that I only had a certain amount of time
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: to fit in. So maybe that was part of the
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: Lomachenko stuff. But I thought that was pretty fair. I
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: thought it was pretty fair. But there were some messages
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: and I did notice some just boxing Twitter stuff, and
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: some of this stuff is just fanboyish, dude, like just
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: because he had a great he had a phenomenal amateur record.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: But I thought I gave him a lot of respect.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: You know. I thought the statement of he became so
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: overrated that he was underrated, I think that's pretty fitting.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: Do I think he's gonna be a Hall of Famer? Yes,
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: I do. I do. When you look at his best wins,
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: they're just not all that impressive. I mean, the Rigo
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: is his best win, but is it that impressive considering
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: the weight jump? I mean, how much credit will Canelo
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: get if he beats Crawford off of the weight jump.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: Let's say it's like ten to two. Let's just say, right,
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: ten to two, and Crawford just couldn't do anything whatever.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: He was, you know, to hesitant. He got hit with
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: a punch early and it whatever. I don't know, but
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: how much credit would would he get, you know, Canelo
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: probably not a whole lot. So but here is some
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: boxing Twitter stuff that just this just gives me fanboy vibes.
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. In my book, Loma retired undefeated
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: and is the best fighter I ever saw. Now the
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: best fighter you ever saw. If you don't watch MUCKs
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: boxing and Loma's your favorite fighter, maybe, But to say
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: he retired undefeated, what Now, here's another one. He's definitely
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: one of the best to lace up the gloves come on.
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: His skill set was on another level from most fighters.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: I wish he had added a cornerman that could have
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: helped him more than his dad could real time. His
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: three loss losses could have been avoided with a better
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: corner help. I don't know if I blame that to
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: be honesty, because it's up to you. It's up to
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: the fighter. Though you knew what was at stake down
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: the stretch of a fight or in the beginning of
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: a fight. If you look at how Lomachenko fought in
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: the beginning of that tale female fight, it was like,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: what are you doing? You know, so I don't know.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: And like I said, close fights aren't robberies. Dude. If
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: you thought Devin Haney lost to Loma, cool, but to
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: call it a robbery, it's just it's showing your fandom
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Mark o'chaiga. He tweeted out, Lomachek was extremely talented fighter,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: some of the best skills I've ever seen, but he
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: ended up with a B minus or a B plus
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: career when we were all promised much more than that.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: Didn't quite live up to the insane expectations. Like I said,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: the guy was popular. Man. You know this is rolled
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: partial on the feet or unified, and it partially unified.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: At one thirty five one won the ring belt, but
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: it was never lineal. I agree with that. Best wins Lenares, Walters,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: Rigo and Gary Russell Jr. And those are all good wins.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: I mean the Walters one you could say was his
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: best performance. Maybe you know, you really could, you really could.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: I thought all three losses were legit and who he
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: actually beat borderline Hall of Famer but yeah, to me,
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: I just, I just you know, is Gary Russell Jr.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: Going into the Hall of Fame? Do you think Lenares
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: is going in the Hall of Fame. I did hear
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: people talking about, you know, Eddie Hern being mad at
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: at Richardson Hitchins feeling disrespected. Jay Row said Eddie invested
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: zero of his own money on Hitchins. He used his
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: own budget to pay Hitchins. Tired of these promoters with
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: network deals and budgets acting like they're losing their own
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: money to put up fights they're not. That's a good point.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: Eddie gets paid five million a year for his own
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: no matter if the card makes money or not. Now
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: he's trying to blame a fighter for Eddie not able
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: to sell an event. Yeah, I mean, you know, he
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: did say he lost a bunch of They lost a
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: bunch of money. You know, it is what it is. Oh,
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: I saw a lot of people, so I can't see
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: who I remember. I remember seeing this on Twitter, but
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: someone sent this to me and they cut off the
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: person that posted it. I just can't remember who did it.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: But British Best Ever Boxer list right he put Lennox
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Lewis Kalzaggi, Hatton u Bank Senior, Ben Joshua Bu Cannon,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: cont Con Frotzen Fury first of all, to put Tyson
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: Fury at ten and have Anthony Joshua Sex is ludicrous
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: to have a mirror con above Carl Frotz. I wouldn't
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: go there, but you know, we people do tend to
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: forget some of the things he did at a lower
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: weight class. I will say that. But you know, Prince Nazine,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: I did hear this. Someone actually said Josh Taylor, Well
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: he's not British though he's not British, so there's a
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: difference between the UK and in British, you know. But
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: you know, Fitz Simmons, h Jimmy Wilde, Duke McKenzie. I
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: heard some other names too. Yeah, the list is pretty incomplete.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: I will say that, and I think it's out of order.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: But I just I think the aging thing is why umm,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: here's Fred again having a promoter reach out to someone
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: to have them agree they won't pay a fighter unless
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: they're the promoters, and is involved as fucking illegal. Yeah,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I don't know man, uh well,
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: Gary and Gary Antoine Russell. How can a guy lose
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: to me four times in the amateurs. We both have
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: belts in the same division, yet don't even want to
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: fight me. Boxing is getting soft for real. I fight.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: I'll fight anyone as long as it makes sense, money
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: or legacy. Thank you's talking about see you talk about Hitchins.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I also got some top range stuff.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they have deals in place or not.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: I've heard that. I've heard a variety of things. I've
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: heard they're gonna have their own streaming service, and I
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: didn't just hear it from you know who. I've heard
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: that they're going to you know that they have a
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: deals in place and they're going to announce it. So
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know whether it's because we heard a while ago,
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: I did hear this, or I did see this this
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: dude's say. I just talked to Arab in Japan about
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: the broadcast situation. Obviously Netflix is the biggest, but there
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: are other streaming services that are looking to make a
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: deal with them, and also one big network that wants
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: to make a deal. Once we put that together within
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: the next two weeks, we'll have a big announcement. So
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: but we did hear that before. I will say that
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: we did hear that before, So that's not you know
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: what I mean, That's not like that's what he told
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: other people. So I don't know, man, I really don't know.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah, what we're gonna find out. I want
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: the best for boxing. So oh, here's a good way
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: to end this is BBC News. I saw this on
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: the brunch Boxing Twitter handle. Boxing trainer Steffie Bull has
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: been has been found guilty of conspiracy to supply cocaine.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: He faces up to sixteen years in prison. Boltrain and
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: Harper McDonald hughes. The bb of C says the license
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: is under review. So oh, boy, was moving some real
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: weight anyway. I think I'm gonna get out of here.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: Let's just hope for this weekend to be multiple fights
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: that are like, dude, this fight's not necessarily leading to
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: that many places. I mean, you FI in some others.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: But but it was just a good scrap, you know.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: I do think we're gonna have a few just goodass scraps. Ultimately,
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: like I said, they don't have a major value to them.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: But there's some good fighters fighting this weekend and it
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: might just be a competitive weekend that we kind of remember, like, hey, dude,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: that was a good ass weekend. So I've said it before,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: I'll say it again. You know, it's like a broken record,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: but like a fair amount of times, these weekends, they
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: just they just tend to pop off. Man. They tend
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: to pop off with a fight like a fight of
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: the year. And it might, like I said, I not
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: have a ton of meaning to it, but it's just
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: a top ten fight of the year. Anyway, I'm gonna
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: get out of here, enjoy the fights this weekend. I'll
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: be back next week Piece
