- 1:40Speaker 1: PBC card, the Deown card, and the Pro Box card.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Fandora kind of had a walk in the park, although
- 1:48Speaker 1: I did like the way he used his jab Jesus ramos,
- 1:56Speaker 1: look pretty good, look pretty good. It did fight back,
- 2:01Speaker 1: so it made it entertaining even though it was fairly
- 2:05Speaker 1: one sided. And then Terrell Goshier should have got the
- 2:16Speaker 1: decision over Elijah Garcia. Good fight, fun fight to watch,
- 2:20Speaker 1: It was competitive, but he just got hit too many
- 2:25Speaker 1: times with flush shots. There'd be times where at maybe
- 2:30Speaker 1: the beginning of the round he would uh block shots
- 2:36Speaker 1: with his with his gloves or move his head offline.
- 2:40Speaker 1: But you know, it didn't last long. So I thought
- 2:45Speaker 1: he lost that fight Tierra Brown, which I said last
- 2:51Speaker 1: week that I did put a little money on it,
- 2:54Speaker 1: just odds wise, because I thought the odds were a
- 2:56Speaker 1: little high. I didn't I thought Sky was gonna win,
- 2:59Speaker 1: though I do have to admit, but Tira Brown did
- 3:02Speaker 1: her thing. She roughed up Sky on the inside, and
- 3:08Speaker 1: Nicholson really had no answers for it, and then Pro
- 3:14Speaker 1: Box Leicester Martinez took care of business and that Hernandez
- 3:18Speaker 1: Lucero fight was. It was a very fun fight, so
- 3:21Speaker 1: we'll go over that. Of course, this weekend we got
- 3:24Speaker 1: we got some rematches, uh MICHAELA. Mayer and Sandy Ryan
- 3:29Speaker 1: on ESPN and ESPN Plus. On the Zone we have
- 3:35Speaker 1: Zepeida and Farmer too, which I'm looking forward to that one.
- 3:40Speaker 1: We'll catch up with John. As far as the t
- 3:42Speaker 1: k O Dana White Turkey stuff, I do have some
- 3:45Speaker 1: questions for him. We haven't talked to him in a
- 3:47Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and the w BO made quick work
- 3:54Speaker 1: of ordering Demando. I like Xander Zaiez and Fundora Sebasti
- 4:00Speaker 1: the door. I think it's a good fight. It is funny,
- 4:05Speaker 1: you know what gets like, you know, called quickly and
- 4:11Speaker 1: not alast find that kind of interesting. But I think
- 4:15Speaker 1: it's a good fight. And I guess the only thing
- 4:17Speaker 1: that could come in between would be uh a unification,
- 4:26Speaker 1: so I'm assuming they'd make that fight, but we'll see
- 4:30Speaker 1: either way. Let's start with the PBC card. Elijah Garcia
- 4:36Speaker 1: to rug Gashier for years, well me not years, but
- 4:41Speaker 1: Goucher was how people used to say it, like right
- 4:44Speaker 1: when they started getting on TV. Gachier. Anyway, Gashier put
- 4:48Speaker 1: his ass down with you know, a big shot which
- 4:55Speaker 1: kind of played out very similar to the Tim Zoo
- 4:59Speaker 1: fight uh early. Anyway, it was a clean right hand,
- 5:02Speaker 1: a nice little one two. Actually he goes down and
- 5:06Speaker 1: and he went down pretty hard. Elijah did, and he
- 5:09Speaker 1: started taking shots after that. Garcia did you know, start
- 5:15Speaker 1: to get get something back. He started going to the body,
- 5:22Speaker 1: these little two punch combos. Late kind of finished stronger,
- 5:25Speaker 1: but the damage is done. As far as winning the round,
- 5:29Speaker 1: Elijah I thought bounced back in the second round though,
- 5:32Speaker 1: good pressure by him, good body and headwork, straight right hands.
- 5:38Speaker 1: But Gashier had his own looping and straight right hand
- 5:43Speaker 1: as well. So but yeah, I thought. I thought the
- 5:46Speaker 1: straight right hands, the right upper cut in the looping
- 5:49Speaker 1: right hands were enough to give Elijah that round. The
- 5:54Speaker 1: third round, Elijah was busier, but he wasn't as accurate.
- 5:58Speaker 1: It was a two way round. I'd give it to Gushier.
- 6:02Speaker 1: I gave Elijah because of his jab and the body work.
- 6:06Speaker 1: The fourth. The fifth I had to go to Goushat.
- 6:10Speaker 1: Great back and forth round though. That's the thing about
- 6:12Speaker 1: this fight. It was a really fun fight, really fun.
- 6:15Speaker 1: It just you know, well, I'll talk about what they
- 6:19Speaker 1: got to do with Elijah after this fight. But yeah,
- 6:24Speaker 1: I just thought Gouchet with the counter rights, either lead
- 6:27Speaker 1: or counter. He actually started landing uppercuts too. I thought
- 6:31Speaker 1: that gave him the round. As the sixth as well,
- 6:36Speaker 1: Guchet started really let his hands go, landing flush shot
- 6:41Speaker 1: and it's like I said, it's not like Elijah wasn't
- 6:43Speaker 1: having success, it's just he was getting clipped way too
- 6:47Speaker 1: many times. I gave him the sixth as well. Oh wait,
- 6:51Speaker 1: that was what I just said. The seventh. I gave
- 6:53Speaker 1: him the seventh as well. Jab more right hands, just
- 6:56Speaker 1: the more effectively fighting fighter, if that makes sense. He
- 7:03Speaker 1: was just But I did think Elijah in a close round,
- 7:07Speaker 1: got the eighth. He did apply some pretty good pressure,
- 7:14Speaker 1: but that you have having you know Therell was countering
- 7:17Speaker 1: pretty well. It was a close round. These were, like
- 7:20Speaker 1: I said, competitive in close rounds, but just overall, Terrell
- 7:23Speaker 1: was landing the better shots. I gave him the ninth.
- 7:26Speaker 1: In the tenth, so yeah, Elijah got the eighth, but
- 7:29Speaker 1: Buschet came right back with the better shots. The tenth
- 7:34Speaker 1: was close though, a great, great round early combinations and
- 7:39Speaker 1: then a late a late push by Terrell. Did he
- 7:45Speaker 1: steal the round? You know, I gave it to him,
- 7:49Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean, you know, like six', FOUR i
- 7:54Speaker 1: was pretty good with ninety five ninety four both, ways
- 8:00Speaker 1: and then ninety six ninety Three Elijah, garcia and LIKE i,
- 8:08Speaker 1: SAID i JUST i did not see him win in that.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Fight and as far As elijah, GOES i know they
- 8:13Speaker 1: were talking, about you, KNOW i think it was his family,
- 8:17Speaker 1: said you, know if you don't have like a was
- 8:21Speaker 1: it like a, title like a belt OR i can't
- 8:24Speaker 1: remember what they, said but if you don't have a
- 8:25Speaker 1: belt by age twenty one or, something you need to
- 8:29Speaker 1: get a full time. Job that's kind of. INTERESTING i,
- 8:34Speaker 1: MEAN i don't, know LIKE i would Keep Elijah. Garcia
- 8:44Speaker 1: first of, ALL i would match him up stylistically with
- 8:48Speaker 1: someone that's not going to counter him as, much AND
- 8:53Speaker 1: i WOULD i would fight right around this, level but
- 8:57Speaker 1: just different. Style AND i would do it for whether
- 9:02Speaker 1: it takes, one, two, THREE i don't even know how many,
- 9:04Speaker 1: fights two or three, fights and see if there's some
- 9:08Speaker 1: improvement in. There the guy has the potential that he
- 9:14Speaker 1: showed kind of early in his, career and sometimes that
- 9:19Speaker 1: can be a jinx when you're that. Young even Like
- 9:25Speaker 1: David benavidez when he was very, young you, know he
- 9:31Speaker 1: he had a, setback, Right but then you look at
- 9:35Speaker 1: Like Bam, rodriguez you, know he was really, young and
- 9:39Speaker 1: he hasn't had. Setbacks, man he's looked pretty damn. Good.
- 9:41Speaker 1: Now he's had some you, know maybe B b performances
- 9:46Speaker 1: or something like, that but it's not like he went
- 9:49Speaker 1: out and just you, know he showed out. Good he is,
- 9:52Speaker 1: basically And i'm not trying to put those two, together
- 9:55Speaker 1: but he's still young enough to WHERE i would keep
- 9:58Speaker 1: him at this level for a little. Bit he's obviously
- 10:00Speaker 1: a fun fighter to. Watch you can get him paid,
- 10:04Speaker 1: more you, know just undercard fighter right now and see
- 10:08Speaker 1: where it. Goes but LIKE i, said there's times where
- 10:13Speaker 1: there's times where he does block. Shots there's times where
- 10:17Speaker 1: he moves his, head but a lot of times is
- 10:20Speaker 1: at the beginning of the round and then it's just it's.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Gone so clearly he's not able to do, that and
- 10:30Speaker 1: he stands in front of his guy too, much especially
- 10:35Speaker 1: a counterpuncher like you Know, buchet and you could, tell
- 10:39Speaker 1: like we're starting to See garcia and clearly has some,
- 10:43Speaker 1: pop but his power wasn't what many of us thought
- 10:47Speaker 1: Because guchet was letting his fucking hands go and he's
- 10:51Speaker 1: known to not do that against certain level of. Guys
- 10:57Speaker 1: and you, KNOW i definitely think there should be a,
- 11:02Speaker 1: Rematch and it.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Kind of seemed like it kind of seemed like they
- 11:07Speaker 2: were talking about that in the, ring BUT i couldn't
- 11:10Speaker 2: read lips AND i didn't you, know there was no.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Mic but it needs to be a. Rematch and, honestly
- 11:17Speaker 2: LIKE i don't, KNOW i don't know IF i do that.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Rematch IF i was as you, guys you to be
- 11:26Speaker 1: honest with, you AND i think that, sometimes LIKE i,
- 11:31Speaker 1: said it can kind of be a minor jinx when
- 11:35Speaker 1: you do really good early and you beat some, guy
- 11:40Speaker 1: and sometimes you're beating someone that is maybe like maybe
- 11:48Speaker 1: over the, hill but we just don't know it, yet
- 11:51Speaker 1: and then we see him in another fight and you're, like, oh,
- 11:54Speaker 1: yeah that dude was he was just, washed that's, all you. Know,
- 11:58Speaker 1: MEANWHILE i don't, know it's just LIKE i, said he is.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Young you, know he's only twenty one but, YEAH i really,
- 12:10Speaker 1: think like you, know how he fought Against rassinda's you,
- 12:17Speaker 1: KNOW i thought. THAT i don't, know LIKE i just
- 12:22Speaker 1: there's certain fights that he just looked very good. AT
- 12:28Speaker 1: i thought he looked good Against, selgato you. Know so,
- 12:32Speaker 1: yeah you, know they moved him pretty, fast you, know
- 12:38Speaker 1: to an extent, Anyway but if you look at the
- 12:42Speaker 1: last two fighters he's, fought you, know they've put him
- 12:47Speaker 1: in his place, basically so young enough to keep. Improving,
- 12:51Speaker 1: yes where is you? Know how far and how far
- 12:55Speaker 1: could he go with that? Improvement that's what you're and
- 13:00Speaker 1: have to find. Out but, yeah as an undercard, fighter
- 13:04Speaker 1: style matched, Up i'm not saying take a big step
- 13:07Speaker 1: back and just let him knock out a bunch of
- 13:09Speaker 1: people LIKE i. Said that's Why i'm, saying stay around this,
- 13:13Speaker 1: level just different. Style but, obviously LIKE i, Said gushe Or,
- 13:21Speaker 1: goshier he deserves a rematch, though SO i hope he
- 13:26Speaker 1: gets it because you can right or. Wrong but then,
- 13:29Speaker 1: again you, know maybe he'll move on to something. Else
- 13:33Speaker 1: that's exactly What i'm gonna do right. Now So Jesus Ramos,
- 13:38Speaker 1: junior LIKE i, Said Shram Scram Shram shram just a tough.
- 13:46Speaker 1: Fighter LIKE i, said you can't you can't really give,
- 13:50Speaker 1: him you, know a bunch of or even, rounds really much,
- 13:56Speaker 1: rounds many. Rounds but he he fought really hard and
- 14:03Speaker 1: so stylistically it was fun to. WATCH i, mean the
- 14:07Speaker 1: last little bit of the first, round some really good,
- 14:11Speaker 1: exchanges you, know the jab hooks to the body and.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Head it looked like in the second round early body
- 14:24Speaker 1: SHOT i think it was a left hand Bothered. Shram
- 14:29Speaker 1: and you know in the third, round definitely back and
- 14:34Speaker 1: forth and all, that but the cleaner shot was ramost you,
- 14:38Speaker 1: know overall you could see by the fourth and fifth,
- 14:42Speaker 1: round you, know he started picking up the pace and
- 14:46Speaker 1: going for the stoppage and To, shrams you, know like
- 14:52Speaker 1: to his, credit he definitely would, fight was firing back
- 14:55Speaker 1: and all. That you. Know so coming to the seventh,
- 14:59Speaker 1: round a left HOOK i think right around the midway
- 15:02Speaker 1: point and some follow, up you, Know shram was. Hurt
- 15:08Speaker 1: did they need to stop? It probably. Not was it
- 15:13Speaker 1: in the the referees head That shram was a late,
- 15:17Speaker 1: replacement and maybe he was, like you, know we're. GOOD
- 15:23Speaker 1: i could see that playing playing a. Part you, know
- 15:27Speaker 1: it's ONLY i think he's was his last two now
- 15:31Speaker 1: last two because he went Against Vladimir. Hernandez we will
- 15:36Speaker 1: talk about him a little. Bit his last two were,
- 15:41Speaker 1: stoppages so maybe that played into. It he wasn't gonna
- 15:46Speaker 1: win the fight, obviously SO i wasn't like bent out
- 15:50Speaker 1: of shape from. It BUT i thought they could. HAVE
- 15:52Speaker 1: i thought they could have kept. Going and so Ramos,
- 15:57Speaker 1: MAN i, mean there's plenty of talent for him at fifty,
- 16:01Speaker 1: four he's what twenty, three twenty four at east twenty.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Four you, know he's got good hand, speed he keeps
- 16:09Speaker 1: his guard fairly, high he uses his, jab he digs
- 16:13Speaker 1: to the. Body we are finding out like. That he
- 16:19Speaker 1: he wants to be a little more responsible, NOW i
- 16:24Speaker 1: will say.
- 16:25Speaker 3: That and so maybe we thought that it would be
- 16:31Speaker 3: a lot like he'd be even more fun fighter to
- 16:35Speaker 3: watch per, se like just action pack.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Guy BUT i think it also has to do with
- 16:40Speaker 1: his opponent and that type of. Thing so you, know
- 16:47Speaker 1: like That Santa, maria that was a you, know that
- 16:51Speaker 1: was a fight that went the, distance and it started
- 16:55Speaker 1: to show some like, huh you, know but he's faced you,
- 16:59Speaker 1: know some all guys obviously the Ericson lubin. Fight Uh
- 17:04Speaker 1: Hernandez Mendoza zario, obviously you, know not. There but you,
- 17:13Speaker 1: know there's just so much talent at twenty and he's
- 17:17Speaker 1: only twenty. Four at fifty, FOUR i still like him a.
- 17:21Speaker 1: LOT i think he's got enough power and he's got,
- 17:25Speaker 1: fundamentals AND i think that you, know he's good at.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Range when it's time to step, up he steps. UP i. Think, stylistically,
- 17:35Speaker 1: though LIKE i, said he's just he's not necessarily. Looking
- 17:39Speaker 1: he's looking to be a little bit more. RESPONSIBLE i
- 17:41Speaker 1: think in the end it will do him. Good but
- 17:46Speaker 1: you know That luban, fight it was a competitive, fight
- 17:53Speaker 1: and if you Had lubin, Winning i'm not gonna sit
- 17:57Speaker 1: there and you, know have a big debate about. IT
- 18:01Speaker 1: i REALLY i thought it was just a close, fight
- 18:04Speaker 1: AND i do want to see it, again you. KNOW
- 18:07Speaker 1: i think it's definitely worthy to see it. Again so we'll.
- 18:13Speaker 1: See maybe that's the one they'll go to. NEXT i don't.
- 18:17Speaker 1: Know obviously he's got a little work to. DO i
- 18:20Speaker 1: think he will come through that fight a little Bit
- 18:22Speaker 1: i'm speaking, Of but, YEAH i liked WHAT i. Saw
- 18:27Speaker 1: i've noticed some people are kind of down on him and,
- 18:29Speaker 1: Lately i'm Not i'm Not. Fandora LIKE i, said fairly
- 18:35Speaker 1: easy night at the. OFFICE i did like his. Jab of,
- 18:40Speaker 1: course he brought the pressure he generally, does BUT i
- 18:45Speaker 1: like the. JAB i thought he was bringing efficient jabs
- 18:51Speaker 1: to start out. With then he started jabbing with the right.
- 18:55Speaker 1: Hook he come third, round he hurt MAYBE i don't,
- 19:01Speaker 1: know two minutes into the round something like. That he
- 19:03Speaker 1: heard him buzz, them or at least buzz. Them you,
- 19:07Speaker 1: know his His booker's eye was swelling, up those. Bleeding
- 19:12Speaker 1: there was a left upper, cut and you, Know booker
- 19:18Speaker 1: actually landed a couple of decent left kind of left,
- 19:24Speaker 1: overhands and even in that fourth, round he definitely landed
- 19:29Speaker 1: like a Good early in that fourth, round he landed
- 19:33Speaker 1: a good, shot but you, know a left upper cut
- 19:39Speaker 1: and a few clean, shots and then you, know they
- 19:46Speaker 1: stopped the. Fight and you, KNOW i did think that
- 19:53Speaker 1: they could have let that. GO i thought it got
- 19:56Speaker 1: stopped too. Early i't fully admit that it does seem
- 20:01Speaker 1: like we're you, know it wasn't an equally matched, fight
- 20:05Speaker 1: and sure the size can play a, part of, course
- 20:10Speaker 1: BUT i don't, know LIKE i just thought it was
- 20:17Speaker 1: an early. STOPPAGE i. DON'T i don't know what else to.
- 20:19Speaker 1: Say you, KNOW i really. DID i thought it was
- 20:21Speaker 1: an early. STOPPAGE i wasn't a big big fan of the.
- 20:25Speaker 1: Stoppage that, Said LIKE i, said it didn't look Like
- 20:29Speaker 1: booker had much for. Him he did land some of
- 20:33Speaker 1: those overhand, left So i'll give him. Credit but, YEAH
- 20:36Speaker 1: i thought THEY i thought it was a little just
- 20:39Speaker 1: a little, early that's. All so, yeah pretty one sided fight,
- 20:45Speaker 1: Obviously but the card, itself like it, was it was
- 20:51Speaker 1: just had good, action you, know those three the two
- 20:53Speaker 1: fights before. It even though LIKE i, said The ramos
- 20:56Speaker 1: fight was pretty one sided on the, cards it still was.
- 20:59Speaker 1: Entertaining so, OVERALL i thought it was A i thought
- 21:02Speaker 1: it was a really good. CARD I i liked. IT
- 21:05Speaker 1: i thought it was. Good and it's good to see
- 21:09Speaker 1: that they got, another uh you, know just straight up
- 21:13Speaker 1: on An amazon card coming up in two. Weeks and
- 21:18Speaker 1: then it does sound like they have one coming up
- 21:21Speaker 1: In may as well that we'll talk about a little.
- 21:24Speaker 1: Bit let's see. Here oh, yeah So Sky, nicholson, Uh Tierra,
- 21:36Speaker 1: brown actually hold, on, SORRY i got this message HERE
- 21:41Speaker 1: i have to respond to really, quick all, right the
- 21:45Speaker 1: Hell So Tierra. Brown LIKE i, SAID i did think
- 21:50Speaker 1: she shouldn't have been as much of an underdog as
- 21:54Speaker 1: as people had. Her SO i did put some plus
- 21:58Speaker 1: money on it BECAUSE i thought it should be you,
- 22:02Speaker 1: know like below what it. Was BUT i wasn't sold
- 22:07Speaker 1: like her inside, game AND i knew obviously that's what
- 22:10Speaker 1: she was going to try to go to, clearly but
- 22:15Speaker 1: having seen some of her, fights like SOMETIMES i was
- 22:22Speaker 1: wondering about her left, hook AND i was wondering about
- 22:26Speaker 1: her right, hand but especially her, Hooks LIKE i knew
- 22:29Speaker 1: she'd go to the. Body AND i also didn't know
- 22:32Speaker 1: how much they'd Let tierra work on the, inside AND i,
- 22:40Speaker 1: thought like the hands free, stuff you, know one hand.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Free she did a great job And sky had no.
- 22:48Speaker 1: ANSWER i did Give sky in a slow round based
- 22:52Speaker 1: off like some, jabs like a decent land or too.
- 22:56Speaker 1: LATE i did give her that round and Then tierra
- 23:02Speaker 1: kind of close the, distance you, know landing to the,
- 23:06Speaker 1: body a few rights to the, head and you, Know
- 23:10Speaker 1: nicholson was either like moving too much but then not,
- 23:13Speaker 1: countering and she didn't use her jab as well she normally.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Does obviously that has something to do With, Brown BUT
- 23:21Speaker 1: i will say this LIKE i really liked as she
- 23:26Speaker 1: was trying to escape the left hook that would kind
- 23:28Speaker 1: of put her back in her. Place That Tierra brown was.
- 23:31Speaker 1: Landing so she was very, effective and some of it
- 23:34Speaker 1: was just shoe shining worked to the, body but she had,
- 23:37Speaker 1: her you, know right where she wanted. Her there was
- 23:42Speaker 1: a late left hand and some jabs and, whatnot BUT
- 23:45Speaker 1: i thought she was moving without jabbing and landing enough
- 23:50Speaker 1: to give her that. Round SO i definitely Gave tierra that.
- 23:52Speaker 1: ROUND i gave her the third round early in, there
- 23:56Speaker 1: landing the, body nice left hooks in two right. HANDS
- 24:01Speaker 1: i think one was straight and one was. Upper she,
- 24:03Speaker 1: was you, know kind of mixing it up that. Way
- 24:08Speaker 1: a few decent lands For, sky but not. Much the
- 24:11Speaker 1: fourth round really, close and you, know Obviously brown still
- 24:19Speaker 1: bring that pressure like she did the whole fight, basically
- 24:22Speaker 1: but there were times where it was not as effective
- 24:27Speaker 1: and she wasn't landing that. Clean but then, again Like
- 24:30Speaker 1: sky was holding a lot, Too so that one was
- 24:35Speaker 1: in between the fifth, round early left hook and little
- 24:41Speaker 1: short punches to the. Body couple landed to the head.
- 24:44Speaker 1: TOO i thought that was enough the. Holding there was
- 24:48Speaker 1: more clinching going, on but some nice counter left hands
- 24:53Speaker 1: and straight left hands either counter or straight late By,
- 24:56Speaker 1: sky but still not doing a whole, lot you, know
- 25:02Speaker 1: in that one hand FREE i thought the sixth round
- 25:04Speaker 1: was a good example of. That the fight was just
- 25:08Speaker 1: on the, inside a lot more clinching and just kind
- 25:12Speaker 1: of grinded it, out you. Know and so the seventh
- 25:18Speaker 1: and eighth were really, slower sloppy, ROUNDS i will say.
- 25:22Speaker 1: That SO i think it was one in one. THERE
- 25:27Speaker 1: i gave one, one you, know the seventh To. BROWN
- 25:30Speaker 1: i THINK i gave the eighth The, sky and THEN
- 25:32Speaker 1: i Gave brown the ninth and the. Tenth it was
- 25:36Speaker 1: a close. Round the ninth, round, THOUGH i will say
- 25:38Speaker 1: THAT i just thought she she landed, better especially when
- 25:41Speaker 1: it was on the. Inside and overall in the tenth
- 25:46Speaker 1: was a two way. Round once again the cleaner. SHOTS
- 25:49Speaker 1: i Thought sky was missing a lot of. Shots but once,
- 25:53Speaker 1: again her inside game definitely needs, help like it really.
- 26:00Speaker 1: Does she she was lost on the. Inside and you,
- 26:05Speaker 1: Know Eddie hearn obviously is a, promoter right AND i
- 26:10Speaker 1: See john in the room now saw pop beyond here
- 26:13Speaker 1: in a second. Round he's a, promoter Right and promoters
- 26:18Speaker 1: are gonna say a whole, lot and they're gonna put
- 26:20Speaker 1: their fighters in sentences with you, know better fighters right
- 26:26Speaker 1: In hall Of fame and greats and all, that just
- 26:30Speaker 1: in the same. Sentence that's what that's what they. Do
- 26:32Speaker 1: but you, know recent comments About eddie trying to say
- 26:37Speaker 1: skill wise when it came To Sky, nicholas if you
- 26:41Speaker 1: just look at, skill if you don't look at male or,
- 26:43Speaker 1: female you just look at. Skill you, know he was
- 26:47Speaker 1: trying to say like top, three top, five AND i
- 26:50Speaker 1: always thought that was obviously. Ridiculous But, sky there was
- 26:55Speaker 1: a lot of.
- 26:55Speaker 4: People that was Saying tierra was duck in, her and
- 26:59Speaker 4: then she always was saying That, Serrano Amanda serrano was
- 27:03Speaker 4: duck in, her and that ALWAYS i never tried to
- 27:07Speaker 4: really make a segment out.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Of, it you, know because it was like, whatever Just twitter.
- 27:11Speaker 1: Stuff but when you see a fight like, this go
- 27:15Speaker 1: how it, did and then you think Of Amanda, serrano work,
- 27:19Speaker 1: great more accurate on the? Inside come, on, dude like it's.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Not they're not even on the same. Wavelength so back
- 27:29Speaker 1: to the drawing. BOARD i do think she can get
- 27:32Speaker 1: better on the, inside but, HONESTLY i don't. Know we'll,
- 27:35Speaker 1: see we'll see how that. Goes but, YEAH i had
- 27:38Speaker 1: it six to, four seven to, three pretty. CLEAN i
- 27:41Speaker 1: didn't have a scorecard WHERE i thought she. Won she
- 27:46Speaker 1: did get one of, them ninety six ninety. Four the
- 27:49Speaker 1: other one went To brown ninety six ninety four and
- 27:51Speaker 1: ninety seven ninety, three SO i was cool with. That

- 29:45Speaker 1: i'd love to hear you, know have you share some
- 29:48Speaker 1: words about, uh you, know like a such a mainstream
- 29:52Speaker 1: guy for so many, reasons you know WHAT i. Mean
- 29:54Speaker 1: as he got, older people knew, him not even knowing.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Boxing he was just a Personal it seemed like so
- 30:01Speaker 1: many people just loved. Him he's a lovable guy type. Guy,
- 30:05Speaker 1: yeah you know in the, ring you, know especially when he's,
- 30:08Speaker 1: younger he had a different persona of, course but as
- 30:11Speaker 1: the aged he could have ran for governor For christ's,
- 30:15Speaker 1: sakes you.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Know, yeah NO i think it was, that but it
- 30:18Speaker 5: also it was That foreman being of course very very
- 30:23Speaker 5: special and one of a, kind but also going back
- 30:28Speaker 5: to a different time of. Boxing one THING i could
- 30:31Speaker 5: say on the positive, end which really you led up,
- 30:35Speaker 5: to WAS i was just because you don't get it
- 30:39Speaker 5: with boxing much. ANYMORE i was pleasantly surprised at how
- 30:45Speaker 5: MUCH i mean the mainstream media jumped over, it jumped
- 30:49Speaker 5: all over it. IMMEDIATELY i mean you had all, OUTLETS
- 30:52Speaker 5: i mean all the major networks on traditional LINEAR tv
- 30:58Speaker 5: and cable of, course all over social media. Platforms but
- 31:02Speaker 5: then you, know all over the online, newspapers you, Know
- 31:06Speaker 5: New York, Times Washington, post you, know you saw stuff
- 31:09Speaker 5: from THE, uk a lot of. Stuff so we we
- 31:15Speaker 5: we we just don't get that with boxing. Anymore it's
- 31:19Speaker 5: something we used to. Get and to see that that
- 31:23Speaker 5: was nice for, boxing and you, know showed you how
- 31:26Speaker 5: singular of a Person George foreman. WAS i mean in the,
- 31:31Speaker 5: ring you, know his his comeback. STORY i think it's
- 31:37Speaker 5: just it's the it's the best sports comeback of all.
- 31:40Speaker 5: TIME i MEAN i don't even think it's. ARGUABLE i, mean,
- 31:45Speaker 5: right it's the most ball or something or hit the,
- 31:49Speaker 5: ball you know, Exactly you're putting your life on the
- 31:51Speaker 5: line literally at an older, age and especially at you,
- 31:54Speaker 5: know at heavyweight with how hard those guys bang and
- 31:58Speaker 5: uh to you, know read gained the real. Title, again
- 32:01Speaker 5: we're not talking about. Alphabet that's WHY i hate when
- 32:03Speaker 5: they even get that into, it because we're not talking.
- 32:05Speaker 5: Alphabet he had the title in nineteen seventy, four and
- 32:09Speaker 5: he regained the title in nineteen ninety four after being
- 32:14Speaker 5: out of the ring for ten. Years they'll never be
- 32:17Speaker 5: as sports comeback like, that and it was almost surprising
- 32:22Speaker 5: because there ended up being so much to talk about with.
- 32:25Speaker 5: Them you. Know he originally came on the scene as
- 32:29Speaker 5: the nineteen sixty Eight olympic gold medalists in the heavyweight,
- 32:33Speaker 5: division and you, know that's that's where he became famous,
- 32:37Speaker 5: Initially so before he even fought around as a, pro
- 32:42Speaker 5: he was famous in nineteen sixty eight and that's where
- 32:45Speaker 5: that's where it all. Started then the fearsome you, know
- 32:49Speaker 5: young heavyweight who you, know Annihilated Joe, frasier who was
- 32:53Speaker 5: coming off Beating, alien was, undefeated and you know that
- 32:58Speaker 5: was a shocking performance at the. Time that's one of
- 33:01Speaker 5: my earliest boxing. MEMORIES i, MEAN i do remember that
- 33:05Speaker 5: at the, time but it was it was. Replay it
- 33:11Speaker 5: was replayed that the next. Day my recollection was ON
- 33:15Speaker 5: abc Wide world Of. Sports see that's, funny like The
- 33:18Speaker 5: cosell was there doing the call, live but you saw that.
- 33:22Speaker 5: Afterward that was a somewhat rare. Occasion then where that
- 33:27Speaker 5: Wasn't that wasn't thet you, know that WASN'T. Abc wasn't
- 33:30Speaker 5: the live. Broadcast just going, back but you, know of
- 33:35Speaker 5: course knocking Out fraser and then you, know getting upset
- 33:38Speaker 5: By ali when people thought That ali might die in the.
- 33:43Speaker 5: Ring so it was a huge, upset you, know The,
- 33:45Speaker 5: rumbleman the. Jungle but then what gets a bit. Underrated you,
- 33:48Speaker 5: know he had the, exhibitions The Five men in one.
- 33:51Speaker 5: Night but his first fight then back officially was against Ron,
- 33:57Speaker 5: lyle which you could make an argue human that that
- 34:01Speaker 5: was the greatest heavyweight fight of all. TIME i, mean you,
- 34:04Speaker 5: know it wasn't a title fight when you're talking about
- 34:08Speaker 5: one title people cared, about you, know but you know
- 34:11Speaker 5: with that and it was just a total. Brawl but
- 34:14Speaker 5: but it's exciting of a fight that you'll ever see
- 34:17Speaker 5: in any division. Heavyweights and then now that was live
- 34:20Speaker 5: ON Abc Wide world Of. SPORTS i, remember you, know
- 34:25Speaker 5: as a kid watching, that and you know that was
- 34:28Speaker 5: that was. Unreal and of course you get to see
- 34:30Speaker 5: that stuff on social media now out there on. YouTube
- 34:36Speaker 5: then you, know.
- 34:36Speaker 1: REMEMBER Espn classics used to play a lot of old
- 34:40Speaker 1: fights like.
- 34:40Speaker 5: That, YEAH i mean it's great getting to see, that you,
- 34:43Speaker 5: know when when when those are out, there those are
- 34:45Speaker 5: worthy of anybody. Seeing, yeah you, KNOW i know my
- 34:49Speaker 5: son's thirty, one and he was watching all the Old foreman.
- 34:52Speaker 1: Fights. YEAH i even dug into one that just randomly,
- 34:56Speaker 1: too just you, know the.
- 34:58Speaker 5: Moment but then you, know he and then when he came,
- 35:02Speaker 5: back he Had Gil clancy training. Him you, know he
- 35:03Speaker 5: had Had Archie moore and And Dick sadler early early.
- 35:08Speaker 5: On and then when after The ali loss he went
- 35:10Speaker 5: To Gil. Clancy we weren't talking about that, much you,
- 35:14Speaker 5: know not so of course a boxing. Thing but and
- 35:16Speaker 5: then you got upset By Jimmy young and then he
- 35:18Speaker 5: said he had the religious awakening and when it went,
- 35:23Speaker 5: out went away and preached for ten. Years but you,
- 35:26Speaker 5: KNOW i have Read George foreman had two. BOOKS i read,
- 35:29Speaker 5: those SO i was, biopic and of COURSE i consider
- 35:32Speaker 5: myself a boxing. Historian but you, know he does acknowledge
- 35:37Speaker 5: he blames it on financial. Advisors but but my gut
- 35:40Speaker 5: feeling is probably it's it's hard to manage that kind of. Money,
- 35:45Speaker 5: sure people don't want to think. It they want to,
- 35:47Speaker 5: think oh IF i had that, one but it just.
- 35:50Speaker 5: Is and you, know he had the youth, center but
- 35:53Speaker 5: the money got. SPENT i mean he does say in his,
- 35:56Speaker 5: story but he says it in his. BOOKS i, mean
- 35:57Speaker 5: he says he had no, money and they do project
- 36:00Speaker 5: that in the biopic kind of more than he wants
- 36:03Speaker 5: TO u center to. Run he would talk about, that
- 36:04Speaker 5: but the guy was the guy was dead. BROKE i,
- 36:07Speaker 5: mean that's the that's the reality of. It so you,
- 36:10Speaker 5: know And i'd heard him talk about that a lot of,
- 36:12Speaker 5: times which it's amazing when we think of these sticks in,
- 36:14Speaker 5: life but you think of what was against about that.
- 36:16Speaker 5: Time he hadn't fought for ten, years and, yeah he, decided,
- 36:21Speaker 5: basically what CAN i do for? Money you, know there's
- 36:24Speaker 5: really only one, way right and now there's only really
- 36:28Speaker 5: one way for me to have a shot to get,
- 36:30Speaker 5: money and that's to go back to. Box and everybody
- 36:33Speaker 5: laughed at us comeback at, first you, know he was
- 36:35Speaker 5: way overweight from where he had been and when he
- 36:39Speaker 5: Thought zeuski in the first fight back in eighty. SEVEN
- 36:42Speaker 5: i remember that at the, TIME i, mean, everybody you,
- 36:44Speaker 5: know pretty much everybody was just, saying, oh this is a.
- 36:47Speaker 5: Joke pack it in. There there was no. Love there
- 36:50Speaker 5: was no love there for the.
- 36:51Speaker 1: Comeback and he had a bunch of fights. Too it
- 36:54Speaker 1: wasn't like you just got to fight like. Mcneily and
- 36:57Speaker 1: then he went jumped into a big fights like. Now
- 36:59Speaker 1: he fought a lot of, fights.
- 37:01Speaker 5: Right nobody was asking for it then or. ANYTHING i,
- 37:04Speaker 5: mean it wasn't this, lovable Popular george. Thing but you
- 37:08Speaker 5: know he talked about, that and he kind of did
- 37:10Speaker 5: fall through on, that SO i tend to believe. It
- 37:12Speaker 5: he just then kind of was patient of, Like i'm
- 37:16Speaker 5: going to kind of reintroduce myself to the ring and
- 37:20Speaker 5: just fight guys that aren't aren't that, formidable and and you,
- 37:24Speaker 5: know pick the STYLES i feel are good for, me
- 37:27Speaker 5: and built his way up until, then you, Know aarm
- 37:30Speaker 5: got interested in the, comeback got with. Him but AND
- 37:33Speaker 5: i REMEMBER i remember this specifically. Too aarm was about
- 37:37Speaker 5: to drop him very early, on because this is. True
- 37:41Speaker 5: and if you look at old boxing articles this. Happened george,
- 37:45Speaker 5: had you, know was still, winning and Then aaron had,
- 37:47Speaker 5: him And aaron wanted him to fight Unders, eklund A swedish,
- 37:52Speaker 5: guy And george said he his style was too dangerous for.
- 37:57Speaker 5: Him he was like a boxer type, guy you, know
- 37:59Speaker 5: like he, said he did like the style batch, up
- 38:02Speaker 5: and he wouldn't fight, him and, uh you, Know arab was,
- 38:05Speaker 5: LIKE i can't, You, george we can't go on like.
- 38:07Speaker 5: This you don't want to fight, anything you want to fight.
- 38:10Speaker 5: Anybody and you know then, he, uh looking, back he
- 38:15Speaker 5: fought you, know he Fought, cooper he Fought, cowie you,
- 38:20Speaker 5: know of course those. Guys he felt like the style matched.
- 38:23Speaker 5: Up and then you, know you had The cooney, thing
- 38:26Speaker 5: which you know that that wasn't that wasn't like kind
- 38:31Speaker 5: of like like it's kind of look at that now
- 38:35Speaker 5: like a. Joke that wasn't a joke at the. Time
- 38:37Speaker 5: Like cooney had been, off but nobody was sold on
- 38:42Speaker 5: What foreman had and you know the odds of that
- 38:46Speaker 5: fight we're calling off the top of my, HEAD i
- 38:49Speaker 5: think they were, close so you, know that was kind
- 38:52Speaker 5: of a risk, actually and then the way he Knocked cooney,
- 38:55Speaker 5: out you were, like, whoa you, know maybe maybe there
- 38:59Speaker 5: is something. Here and then he did. It THEN hbo
- 39:02Speaker 5: decided to take a look at, him and you, know
- 39:04Speaker 5: he did it To Addelson, rodriguez who was like a
- 39:06Speaker 5: fringe top ten guy at the time with that big left,
- 39:09Speaker 5: hook and you were, like, whoa you, know look what
- 39:11Speaker 5: he did To cooney And. Rodriguez you still want to
- 39:15Speaker 5: say that he was going to go all the way or,
- 39:16Speaker 5: something but you were, like, well, well maybe this isn't
- 39:18Speaker 5: a total.
- 39:19Speaker 1: Maybe this is, hey wait a. Second, yeah you're, like
- 39:22Speaker 1: wait a. Second and then also the way he fought
- 39:25Speaker 1: too all of a, sudden the, jab you, know like
- 39:27Speaker 1: it was it was. He it was, like, wow, okay
- 39:30Speaker 1: this is a little different version of.
- 39:31Speaker 5: Him, yeah The jab was, well The jab was looking.
- 39:34Speaker 5: Formidable and then you, know he had the then the
- 39:36Speaker 5: big pay per view fight With Holy, field which which
- 39:39Speaker 5: everybody was into it at that. Point that's where he
- 39:41Speaker 5: had built the momentum and and a lot of that
- 39:43Speaker 5: was fighting on LIKE. Usa you, know he and you,
- 39:48Speaker 5: know then The Holy field he showed he was for
- 39:50Speaker 5: real and people were thinking he could retire, then but
- 39:52Speaker 5: he stayed at, it.
- 39:53Speaker 1: And and people were thinking Holy field was going to
- 39:56Speaker 1: light him up.
- 39:56Speaker 5: Too, yeah yeah they, did they. Did They it was
- 39:58Speaker 5: SURPRISED i.
- 40:00Speaker 1: DID i was one of those THAT I i literally
- 40:04Speaker 1: came late to like a fight, party wasn't really thinking
- 40:08Speaker 1: much of the, fight just hanging out watching some, fights
- 40:10Speaker 1: and all of a, sudden you, know all hell Broke. Loues,
- 40:13Speaker 1: YEAH i was, like holy, shit this is a good ass. Fight.
- 40:16Speaker 1: YEAH i. THOUGHT i was, LIKE i should have known
- 40:19Speaker 1: Holy fields in the ring, too so of course it's
- 40:21Speaker 1: gonna be a good. Fight Holy, field right.
- 40:23Speaker 5: Exactly that was the Holy field then he was in his,
- 40:25Speaker 5: prime but he always ended up, brawling so you, know
- 40:29Speaker 5: you're you're always and that was a very entertaining.
- 40:32Speaker 1: Fight.
- 40:32Speaker 5: YEAH i was just totally into the former thing at that.
- 40:34Speaker 5: Time was psyched up for. It but, yeah it wasn't
- 40:37Speaker 5: expecting him to be able, to you, know necessarily do anything.
- 40:41Speaker 5: Either and he went the. Distance and you, know sometimes
- 40:44Speaker 5: get talked about much. EITHER i, mean you, know never
- 40:46Speaker 5: down in the, comeback never got knocked down in the coming,
- 40:50Speaker 5: heavyweight you, know never went down and you, know ended
- 40:53Speaker 5: up you know a. Lady the only time he got
- 40:54Speaker 5: stopped but never never even went down in the. Comeback
- 40:58Speaker 5: so the chin was obviously my more formidable than everybody.
- 41:01Speaker 5: Realized and then you know he stayed at. It you,
- 41:04Speaker 5: know he lost that decision To, morrison but then he you,
- 41:06Speaker 5: know he got famously at the time Talked Seth abraham
- 41:12Speaker 5: AT hbo into letting him get the crack at more
- 41:15Speaker 5: and you, know they figured they'd get some ratings on.
- 41:17Speaker 5: It and, uh you know, what seeing that fight live,
- 41:21Speaker 5: too and having watched just about every fight you could
- 41:24Speaker 5: have the form and, COMEBACK i do want to throw
- 41:26Speaker 5: my boxing opinion on. THAT i do think that fight
- 41:29Speaker 5: gets miscategorized a little. Bit you, Know george he was
- 41:34Speaker 5: down on the, cards no doubt it was down on
- 41:36Speaker 5: him to, Me but if you watched all the fights
- 41:39Speaker 5: in his comeback and like where he had trouble with With,
- 41:44Speaker 5: morrison and then you, know even to some, degree like you,
- 41:47Speaker 5: Know holyfield would always, brawl but he but he had
- 41:49Speaker 5: some skills, Too like it was, like you, know it
- 41:54Speaker 5: was like When george wasn't you, know he couldn't touch.
- 41:57Speaker 5: It he wasn't touching you as, much you, know so
- 42:00Speaker 5: he wasn't wearing you down or breaking you, down and
- 42:04Speaker 5: and he just wasn't touching like like he like from
- 42:06Speaker 5: that opening bell With, more he was touching him the whole,
- 42:10Speaker 5: fight like you, know it wasn't like he wasn't. Landing
- 42:14Speaker 5: and you, know now it looked like he was, fading it,
- 42:16Speaker 5: did but you, know but he was, landing you. Know
- 42:20Speaker 5: SO i was always, like you, know he's in this.
- 42:23Speaker 5: Thing you, know he's. Landing it's not one of these
- 42:25Speaker 5: fights where he can't get to him at all in the.
- 42:28Speaker 5: Rounds and THEN i think Something Larry merchant said during the.
- 42:35Speaker 5: FIGHT i always remembered, it And i've watched that a
- 42:37Speaker 5: million times because it's such an inspirational fight when he
- 42:40Speaker 5: knocked Out. More but you Know, merchant who who to,
- 42:43Speaker 5: me was always like kind of down On george's. Comeback
- 42:45Speaker 5: and you, Know larry's not afraid to say anything like you,
- 42:48Speaker 5: know he outs with. Him he has no filter or
- 42:51Speaker 5: fear like, that and he was kind of down on
- 42:53Speaker 5: it the whole. Time and because that morror fight. Started
- 42:57Speaker 5: but then LIKE i, remember all of a, sudden this
- 42:59Speaker 5: was befre for THE ko, obviously BUT i Remember Larry
- 43:03Speaker 5: merchant then just saying like, man like you, know the
- 43:06Speaker 5: will on this. Guy like you could Tell Larry merchant
- 43:09Speaker 5: really meant it, too and he'd seen everything at That
- 43:12Speaker 5: he was, like you, know the willpower this guy is
- 43:15Speaker 5: something that like you just don't you just don't see
- 43:18Speaker 5: and Like larry got that part, right like the. Guy you,
- 43:21Speaker 5: KNOW i get emotional kind of thinking about what that
- 43:23Speaker 5: fight him and got five years. Old it's the toughest.
- 43:25Speaker 5: Sport like we, said you're getting hit in the. Head you,
- 43:28Speaker 5: know you're you're literally putting your health and life at,
- 43:31Speaker 5: risk and and the guys still giving it. All he's
- 43:34Speaker 5: got coming at more and and ended up getting to,
- 43:37Speaker 5: him which nobody thought was going to. Happen Like Gil,
- 43:41Speaker 5: clancy who's who's a real was one of the great
- 43:45Speaker 5: boxing experts of all time, too was, SAYING i remember
- 43:48Speaker 5: during that fight he, said you, Know george isn't the
- 43:51Speaker 5: one punch kind of. Puncher And i'm not like Knocking.
- 43:54Speaker 5: Gill i'm, saying like you got to remember, too that's
- 43:55Speaker 5: what everybody felt, like you, know he he was like,
- 43:57Speaker 5: clubbing like clubbing people all over and it was late
- 44:01Speaker 5: in the, fight so you, know. Goill clancy was just,
- 44:03Speaker 5: saying and he had trained, him like you, know he's
- 44:06Speaker 5: giving it everything he's, got but you know he's just
- 44:08Speaker 5: not would punch. Puncher but you, know you watch that,
- 44:12Speaker 5: reclay you could see that he did find like that
- 44:17Speaker 5: jab right, hand that jab short right, hand like he
- 44:20Speaker 5: threw that right before the one that knocked him, Out
- 44:23Speaker 5: so like you could See forman's mind, working, like, yeah
- 44:27Speaker 5: he already had something there and and and he got.
- 44:29Speaker 5: It and you, know then he went on AND i
- 44:32Speaker 5: thought he got robbed Against Shannon, briggs even his last.
- 44:35Speaker 5: FIGHT i thought that was one of the worst Robberies
- 44:37Speaker 5: i've ever. Seen and then you, know he got the
- 44:40Speaker 5: grill thing really going that. Time they were talking like
- 44:42Speaker 5: it was after, career but it was really like during.
- 44:44Speaker 5: Career you, know he was kind of getting that stuff,
- 44:46Speaker 5: going becoming a pitchman and, everything.
- 44:49Speaker 1: And he ended Up it is true.
- 44:52Speaker 5: My understanding, though that he did end up making much
- 44:54Speaker 5: more money from the grill than he ever made it
- 44:57Speaker 5: in all his fights in the. Ring so he just
- 45:00Speaker 5: persevered with. Everything AND i got to meet him at
- 45:03Speaker 5: The Golatta grant fight In Atlantic city in ninety nine
- 45:06Speaker 5: AND i put that picture. Up, Yeah, YEAH i got
- 45:09Speaker 5: to Meet ali and get photographed with him And, foreman you,
- 45:12Speaker 5: know two of my biggest heroes of all. TIME i
- 45:14Speaker 5: always feel really fortunate about. That now they're both, gone,
- 45:18Speaker 5: Right but you know one THING i feel really fortunate,
- 45:21Speaker 5: too is because there are. Humans anybody could have a
- 45:25Speaker 5: bad day or thing like like WHEN i got to
- 45:27Speaker 5: meet both those, guys they were really nice to. Me
- 45:30Speaker 5: they weren't a, disappointment, right you, KNOW i feel lucky,
- 45:34Speaker 5: Too like you can get disappointed when you meet somebody
- 45:36Speaker 5: like that and like, yeah.
- 45:37Speaker 1: You're, like, oh this guy's an. Anshole, yeah you.
- 45:39Speaker 5: Know and the picture, thing it's different than the forming
- 45:43Speaker 5: PICTURE i got ninety nine and The ali was in ninety.
- 45:45Speaker 5: ONE i mean there was no cell, phone there was no,
- 45:47Speaker 5: celphone pick, camp like.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Even see the little orange mark it was at the
- 45:54Speaker 1: end of that. Erar but that's what that. Is, yeah exactly.
- 45:57Speaker 5: Right you, Know like What i'm saying is it wasn't
- 45:59Speaker 5: as easy. Too had to say like, Hey, george you know, yeah.
- 46:01Speaker 1: Yeah that's. Yeah it's like talking to a. Girl there's
- 46:04Speaker 1: no there's no chat, room there's no apps to actually do.
- 46:09Speaker 5: It, yeah actually do.
- 46:10Speaker 4: It.
- 46:10Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah that's a good, way and it's not Necessarily,
- 46:14Speaker 1: Yeah you're. Right it's not as easy as the selfie
- 46:16Speaker 1: or you could just stop real, Quick hey you do?
- 46:18Speaker 5: It you, Know, yeah you're, right it's more. Personal it
- 46:20Speaker 5: was more. Personal so that's Why i'm taking his. Hand
- 46:22Speaker 5: that's that's that's what's good about the old the old.
- 46:25Speaker 5: Way so we got. That but so, Yeah george definitely
- 46:29Speaker 5: one of my. Heroes but if they're, positive it is
- 46:32Speaker 5: just all That George foreman did being a totally unique
- 46:36Speaker 5: character in life in The United, states and then from
- 46:39Speaker 5: the boxing, perspective it really was the most attention boxing
- 46:42Speaker 5: he's gone for a long. TIME i, mean it's most
- 46:45Speaker 5: important Because George forman is doing. It but WHAT i
- 46:47Speaker 5: want to say about that, too that's kind of underestimated
- 46:50Speaker 5: is those guys that got that, exposure as you, know
- 46:55Speaker 5: from The olympics the way they used to be and
- 46:57Speaker 5: then ON tv in. Seventies look at all the guys
- 47:00Speaker 5: it's ON tv, right trying to get this through to younger,
- 47:04Speaker 5: people because it's not older people just saying, oh everything
- 47:07Speaker 5: was great back. THEN i don't believe in doing that,
- 47:08Speaker 5: either but this was. Different Like Ali olympic gold medalist
- 47:12Speaker 5: at light heavyweight nineteen Sixty Joe, Frasier olympic gold medalist
- 47:17Speaker 5: at heavyweight nineteen sixty, Four George Foreman olympic Gold medals
- 47:21Speaker 5: heavyweight nineteen sixty, Eight Sugar Ray Leonard olympic Gold medalists
- 47:24Speaker 5: nineteen seventy six light, welterweight like and then these guys
- 47:29Speaker 5: all were ON tv in the seventies all the, Time
- 47:31Speaker 5: Like Larry holmes lost in the trials To, bobbick and
- 47:35Speaker 5: that's in that. Era that's what set him, Back like
- 47:38Speaker 5: he have a much longer as cent because of. That
- 47:42Speaker 5: but then he got, there like.
- 47:44Speaker 1: When he said he fought On Sugarray leonard's open like
- 47:48Speaker 1: debut and he was barely making any.
- 47:50Speaker 5: Money WHY i had to take the long. Road he
- 47:53Speaker 5: did well IN aaau and, stuff but he he didn't make,
- 47:55Speaker 5: it you, know he wasn't on The olympic. Team didn't
- 47:57Speaker 5: he didn't win a medal in The. Olympics but saying
- 48:00Speaker 5: like when those when, FORM i Mean foreman And homes
- 48:03Speaker 5: had a legit like popularity revival in the nineties fighting
- 48:07Speaker 5: ON usa And leonard tried to make you, know a
- 48:11Speaker 5: short lived. COMEBACK i remember, THAT i remember that ON.
- 48:14Speaker 1: Usa, yeah but he.
- 48:16Speaker 5: Had been fighting up until ninety, one you, know when
- 48:20Speaker 5: he lost To. Norris but like just, saying like those
- 48:22Speaker 5: guys got that, exposure Like foreman And, homes you, know
- 48:26Speaker 5: they got popular again in the nineteen, nineties but the
- 48:29Speaker 5: door was open for him with that people who knew
- 48:32Speaker 5: who they. Were, ye and then they were on LIKE
- 48:35Speaker 5: usa fighting all the. Time and because they had that,
- 48:38Speaker 5: base they got. Ratings like it's what you AND i
- 48:41Speaker 5: talk about WITH pbc or any of the promotions which
- 48:44Speaker 5: they're having so much trouble, Now like a guy who
- 48:47Speaker 5: gets ratings at one point in their career has a.
- 48:50Speaker 5: Value these were like the ultimate guys of.
- 48:52Speaker 1: That but like it's it's that exact way, too.
- 48:57Speaker 5: Right they were at the highest.
- 48:59Speaker 1: Scale you, know no, doubt but it did it Did
- 49:03Speaker 1: it did.
- 49:03Speaker 5: Work exactly that, way you, know, Right and those guys
- 49:06Speaker 5: were at the pinnacle of, that like when you got
- 49:07Speaker 5: exposure what that. Meant that's WHY i like using that
- 49:10Speaker 5: as an. Example they they were the, Ultimate but it
- 49:13Speaker 5: shows how long and look at all the Attention George foreman,
- 49:16Speaker 5: got you, know because he had that exposure at one
- 49:19Speaker 5: point and he had all the out of the ring
- 49:21Speaker 5: stuff then later, On but but he had that initial,
- 49:24Speaker 5: exposure you, know like Like Ali, forman you, Know Sugar Ray,
- 49:27Speaker 5: Leonard Joe frasier and and the you know their legends
- 49:31Speaker 5: you know still today they were, great but but it
- 49:35Speaker 5: was also they got exposure while they were, great and
- 49:38Speaker 5: then it made people.

- 52:15Speaker 5: know what an amazing life he led and all these unbelievable.
- 52:20Speaker 5: Accomplishments but to, me there's always a bit of mystery about,
- 52:23Speaker 5: him Which i've said this. BEFORE i, MEAN i would
- 52:26Speaker 5: think there's some people that know, this but it's not
- 52:29Speaker 5: something you even, now you don't really hear, It like you,
- 52:32Speaker 5: know there's something else there with, him something that drove
- 52:36Speaker 5: those that will power and the competitive, instincts and even
- 52:41Speaker 5: even with what he accomplished and added the, ring and
- 52:44Speaker 5: he talks about sticking with things and stuff and it
- 52:46Speaker 5: is helpful and. Inspirational BUT i just Gotta i've always
- 52:49Speaker 5: had the feeling that there's that there's a lot of him.
- 52:53Speaker 1: Force that made him that, way because.
- 52:57Speaker 5: Exactly, YEAH i don't think he, EVER i don't think
- 53:00Speaker 5: for whatever reason he ever really wanted to let that.
- 53:02Speaker 5: ON i, mean he talks about religion and, stuff And
- 53:05Speaker 5: i'm not discounting any of, that but there's still it
- 53:07Speaker 5: was always there with. Them that's one thread really that
- 53:11Speaker 5: was always there from The Olympical metal in the first,
- 53:14Speaker 5: career even though he was being jovial to that second.
- 53:17Speaker 5: Career And i've told this story, before BUT i forget
- 53:21Speaker 5: who did it to. Him somebody had seen. It you
- 53:24Speaker 5: AND i were talking about a few years, ago AND
- 53:25Speaker 5: i had read, it but it was kind of along these.
- 53:28Speaker 5: Lines this was during the Jovial george. Era somebody said
- 53:34Speaker 5: that they were With george and it was out In
- 53:37Speaker 5: vegas or something like, that in the fight weekend or
- 53:40Speaker 5: and somebody somebody went up up to him and touched
- 53:45Speaker 5: his touched his, belly And george said something, like incomplete,
- 53:52Speaker 5: seriousness my motherfucking. Belly, YEAH i think that's. It that's
- 54:00Speaker 5: that's where it's, LIKE i don't know what that, was
- 54:02Speaker 5: but that's like WHAT i kind of got, By like there's,
- 54:05Speaker 5: something there's something. There he's got some kind of internal
- 54:08Speaker 5: drive and.
- 54:09Speaker 1: Codd, yeah some sort of life experience or someone in
- 54:12Speaker 1: his life or. Something, yeah that's a good. Point there
- 54:15Speaker 1: hadn't been. Something well EVEN.
- 54:17Speaker 5: I looked at that rated, too there's yeah with those
- 54:21Speaker 5: underrated things with, Him LIKE i think a big underrated
- 54:24Speaker 5: moment was, like you, know then it's after The Holy
- 54:27Speaker 5: feeld loss and he's working his way, back try staying,
- 54:30Speaker 5: relevant and you, know he's Fighting Alex stewart and he
- 54:32Speaker 5: has him down a couple times. Early then the fight
- 54:35Speaker 5: starts getting away from him and he's got the whole
- 54:37Speaker 5: left side of his face swelled up.
- 54:39Speaker 1: THERE i remember he couldn't put his glasses on after
- 54:42Speaker 1: the fight right in the. INTERVIEW i remember. That but
- 54:44Speaker 1: here's the.
- 54:45Speaker 5: Thing you watched the last round of that fight when
- 54:47Speaker 5: he needed that, Round, yes and he he out Hustles
- 54:51Speaker 5: Alex stewart and takes that. Round, Yeah and you, know
- 54:55Speaker 5: this is a guy in his forties with his face
- 54:58Speaker 5: half swelled up like a pump can and he's win
- 55:01Speaker 5: in the final round of a fight like there's something.
- 55:04Speaker 5: Else there's something else in. This there was something else
- 55:07Speaker 5: in this.
- 55:07Speaker 1: Guy you. Know it Was Alex schultz WHO i was thinking,
- 55:11Speaker 1: ABOUT i think because his eye got messed up in
- 55:15Speaker 1: that one that was like ON. Espn, YEAH i know
- 55:18Speaker 1: you're talking ABOUT i got him mixed up WHEN i
- 55:19Speaker 1: heard The alex. Start, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah mat.
- 55:23Speaker 5: Fact now he mentioned him that That's schultz. Fight might
- 55:25Speaker 5: have even been ON. ABC i know it was.
- 55:28Speaker 1: On either watching it on. Vacation me and my brother
- 55:35Speaker 1: watched that fight in the hotel a.
- 55:37Speaker 5: Rarity BUT i think it was ON abc BECAUSE i
- 55:39Speaker 5: can Picture Alex waller doing the, fight and you know
- 55:43Speaker 5: that wasn't. THAT a lot of people, said, Oh schultz got.
- 55:45Speaker 5: UP i actually Thought george edged it. Out it was
- 55:47Speaker 5: one of those THAT i, thought, like, yeah he didn't
- 55:50Speaker 5: look good or, anything but, yeah, YEAH i thought he
- 55:54Speaker 5: did enough to edge it. Out but, yeah that was
- 55:57Speaker 5: a tough one for. Him But Alex, stewart you, know
- 55:59Speaker 5: he had him down a couple of times EARLY i
- 56:01Speaker 5: was ON, hbo and then he was letting it get
- 56:04Speaker 5: away from, him but he rallied in the last round
- 56:06Speaker 5: when his face was just swelled, up like you, know
- 56:09Speaker 5: like a. Pumpkin and there was that inner drive and
- 56:12Speaker 5: willpower and the guy that for all the things he
- 56:14Speaker 5: got done in. Life one thing in that biopic they
- 56:18Speaker 5: said THAT i didn't know that made sense just from boxing.
- 56:21Speaker 5: SENSE i believed. IT i tended to believe, it like
- 56:24Speaker 5: they had him when he went and he first started
- 56:26Speaker 5: training and you, know and he ended up making The
- 56:28Speaker 5: olympic team in sixty eight that his amateur trainers were, saying,
- 56:32Speaker 5: like because he didn't HAVE i guess he really didn't
- 56:35Speaker 5: have that many amateur fights at that. Point and his
- 56:38Speaker 5: and his amateur trainers were, Like georgia are doing, Real,
- 56:40Speaker 5: well let's go for seventy. Two you, know you're you're
- 56:43Speaker 5: you're probably not ready. Yet and he, was you, know
- 56:48Speaker 5: in his, account he was, like, No we're going for.
- 56:51Speaker 5: It you know this. Time it's you, know and think
- 56:56Speaker 5: what these guys. Did they were fighting. PROS i, mean, like,
- 57:00Speaker 5: Yes soviet block guys were. Pro that's not us saying.
- 57:04Speaker 5: That that's.
- 57:04Speaker 1: Real, YEAH i mean these guys.
- 57:06Speaker 5: Are that's how great they.
- 57:07Speaker 1: Were like it was in a lot of, sports, yeah
- 57:10Speaker 1: and a lot of like the basketball back, Then remember
- 57:12Speaker 1: we'd send the college kids and they'd have these grown adults, playing,
- 57:16Speaker 1: right they're.
- 57:17Speaker 5: Playing adults in, basketball so you had forming a teenager
- 57:19Speaker 5: knocking out these these pros from the eastern. Blocks, Anyway but,
- 57:24Speaker 5: yeah it was it was, sad sad Losing george because you,
- 57:27Speaker 5: know he's a he was a true he was a true.
- 57:30Speaker 5: Legend but it's it's good to be able to talk about.
- 57:32Speaker 1: Him, yeah, yeah that that kind of reminds me of
- 57:36Speaker 1: even though with THE covid year and then like and
- 57:42Speaker 1: just getting a lot of people staying in you, know college,
- 57:45Speaker 1: longer which is ultimately pretty, good but for, years college
- 57:50Speaker 1: hockey was that way where guys would go playing the
- 57:53Speaker 1: junior shir a couple of years and they'd have elgi you,
- 57:56Speaker 1: know their. Fulgibility they'd be like twenty four to twenty,
- 57:59Speaker 1: five you, know and just, experienced you. Know AND i
- 58:03Speaker 1: remember My gophers would always get beat by those guys
- 58:06Speaker 1: because we'd had all these young guys that are about
- 58:08Speaker 1: to go one and done or be there for two
- 58:10Speaker 1: years ago pro and we. Couldn't we. Couldn't we just
- 58:13Speaker 1: couldn't match him that the physical strength they played together
- 58:16Speaker 1: for so. Long but, yeah you're right, That, yeah it's Just,
- 58:19Speaker 1: uh it's good to good to think back to those, times,
- 58:23Speaker 1: man that's for. Sure so let's get into the ring.
- 58:28Speaker 1: Here LIKE i, said we got a variety of stuff
- 58:31Speaker 1: to talk. About we'll lead with the THE pbc. Card,
- 58:34Speaker 1: Obviously fandora had a pretty easy. NIGHT i did like his, job,
- 58:39Speaker 1: Though i'll say that because sometimes he comes forward and
- 58:43Speaker 1: it's just a little too out of control where he
- 58:45Speaker 1: gets not that he didn't get hit with some overhand,
- 58:47Speaker 1: left BUT i did like his. Job and there was
- 58:51Speaker 1: that that timeframe where he was kind of where it
- 58:56Speaker 1: was kind of like what fight was? That was that
- 58:58Speaker 1: The garcia fight that he was? BOXING i think it
- 59:01Speaker 1: was The garcia, Fight, Yeah, Garcia and it was, like,
- 59:04Speaker 1: well that's not gonna work eat that was that.
- 59:07Speaker 5: WAS i didn't like that fight for, Him, yeah BUT
- 59:10Speaker 5: i do.
- 59:10Speaker 1: Like him at least using fundamentals more when he comes,
- 59:14Speaker 1: forward because that's ultimately what he wants to, do you
- 59:18Speaker 1: know WHAT i. Mean so it, was you, know pretty easy.
- 59:21Speaker 1: Night we'll talk about The Xander daias potential fight that
- 59:27Speaker 1: seems like it's gonna happen unless the unification pops. In
- 59:31Speaker 1: but what'd you think of the other two? Fights you,
- 59:34Speaker 1: know The ramos fight was, uh it was, entertaining but one.
- 59:38Speaker 1: Sided and then you Know Elijah garcia was getting clocked
- 59:44Speaker 1: left and right in that. Fight what did you think
- 59:46Speaker 1: of the those two underguard?
- 59:48Speaker 5: Fights, well With, GARCIA i gotta SAY i missed a couple,
- 59:53Speaker 5: Arounds SO i don't want to give my own opinion
- 59:55Speaker 5: on the. Scoring AND i usually don't go on, this
- 59:57Speaker 5: but you have to say it on this, one and you,
- 59:59Speaker 5: know saw the knockdown and. EVERYTHING i didn't see anybody
- 1:00:05Speaker 5: that scored the fight For. Garcia, YEAH i mean, EITHER
- 1:00:08Speaker 5: i mean you don't usually get, that like whether there's just.
- 1:00:11Speaker 5: NOBODY i mean this, one this, one there was. Nobody,
- 1:00:15Speaker 5: yeah there was nobody out there Saying garcia. Won AND
- 1:00:19Speaker 5: i HAD i admittedly had Liked garcia a. LOT i
- 1:00:21Speaker 5: THINK i knew what they were trying to do here
- 1:00:23Speaker 5: was you, know he he had that that upset loss
- 1:00:27Speaker 5: to you know a, boxer you, Know, davis and THEY
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: i think they, thought, well you, know we'll have them
- 1:00:35Speaker 5: try to learn and remedy some of that Against garchet
- 1:00:38Speaker 5: and That i'll make an. Opponent it was like a
- 1:00:40Speaker 5: minus six hundred favorite though, STILL i, mean everybody on
- 1:00:44Speaker 5: the card was a huge, favorite Including. GARCIA i FIGURED
- 1:00:47Speaker 5: pbc was just hoping one of those fights was surprised,
- 1:00:52Speaker 5: competitive and they got it with The garcia. Garceety they
- 1:00:56Speaker 5: weren't expecting, it probably hoping that for it to be that,
- 1:00:59Speaker 5: competitive but you, know, major you, Know garcia is still very,
- 1:01:03Speaker 5: young but for how highly he was, regarded and then
- 1:01:06Speaker 5: to have another fight with a boxer where he had
- 1:01:09Speaker 5: that kind of trouble and even Though gauchet Knocked zoo
- 1:01:12Speaker 5: down and he Hurt, lubin he's not a. Puncher he's
- 1:01:15Speaker 5: still not a puncher and he doesn't get the KOs.
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: And he was letting his hands, go which kind of
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: tells you what's coming back at.
- 1:01:22Speaker 5: Him, yeah very troubling For, garcia and wasn't it near
- 1:01:28Speaker 5: as bad of course For, Ramos but you, know he
- 1:01:30Speaker 5: was in with light, opposition a, substitute AND i think
- 1:01:34Speaker 5: for him even letting that guy hang around that. Long
- 1:01:39Speaker 5: we've been talking about, it and it's it's something you
- 1:01:43Speaker 5: kind of just find yourself talking about with him more
- 1:01:46Speaker 5: that he doesn't seem to be as good of a
- 1:01:49Speaker 5: puncher as we might have thought when he was first
- 1:01:52Speaker 5: coming up and. Starting that seems like it's going to
- 1:01:55Speaker 5: start being a bit of a problem for him because you,
- 1:01:58Speaker 5: know we've said it a few, times but he couldn't
- 1:02:00Speaker 5: Get lubin out of, there who doesn't have the greatest
- 1:02:02Speaker 5: chin lost on the, cards even THOUGH i thought it
- 1:02:05Speaker 5: was a bad, decision but you, know then these lesser,
- 1:02:08Speaker 5: opponents he's not blowing them right out of. There i'm
- 1:02:13Speaker 5: kind of, disappointed, frankly as you can, Tell, like AND
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: i was thinking ABOUT i think it was you AND
- 1:02:17Speaker 5: i saying, It, chris hard to believe because these years
- 1:02:19Speaker 5: are flying, by but this is actually something. Disappointing like
- 1:02:24Speaker 5: that looked good for a, while and it fits with
- 1:02:26Speaker 5: two of the guys we Saw Saturday. Night you, know
- 1:02:29Speaker 5: a couple of years, ago you, KNOW pbc picked Up
- 1:02:32Speaker 5: Andy ruiz and they had Like Andy ruiz at, heavyweight
- 1:02:36Speaker 5: and then you Had Hesus ramos coming, up and you
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: Got Elijah garcia and you're, like, hey you know this Has,
- 1:02:42Speaker 5: American Mexican american. Sensibilities you, KNOW, pbc you, know focusing
- 1:02:47Speaker 5: on THE us, Market american sensibilities that they might be
- 1:02:51Speaker 5: able to do something here with these three. Guys then
- 1:02:55Speaker 5: you got you, Know Andy ruiz just doesn't fight you,
- 1:02:57Speaker 5: KNOW i mean like, FREQUENTLY i mean like not when
- 1:02:59Speaker 5: he's in, there but so you, know he's just not,
- 1:03:02Speaker 5: active not.
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: Disciplined and, yeah, right and then you know it goes with.
- 1:03:06Speaker 5: Him Elijah garcia was looking good and now he's had some,
- 1:03:10Speaker 5: troubles And Haycus ramos is still, there he's legit top,
- 1:03:13Speaker 5: ten but he's maybe not looking as good as we.
- 1:03:16Speaker 5: Thought and then outside of the in the ring, part
- 1:03:19Speaker 5: we have the add of the ring part where now
- 1:03:21Speaker 5: they've fallen into that not getting. Exposure you, know you're
- 1:03:24Speaker 5: ON Pbc undercards or the the YouTube pre limb and
- 1:03:29Speaker 5: it's just not it's just not consistent exposure where you
- 1:03:36Speaker 5: could build these guys and you, know you're the other
- 1:03:38Speaker 5: promotions you're having you, know similar. Problems BUT i was
- 1:03:41Speaker 5: thinking of you AND i talking a few years, back
- 1:03:44Speaker 5: and that looked like it might have some promise and
- 1:03:47Speaker 5: now a few years later it's not really playing out
- 1:03:51Speaker 5: like you you would have hoped that was that was
- 1:03:54Speaker 5: one AVENUE pbc had that looked like they could have
- 1:03:58Speaker 5: they could have built something up.
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: There, yeah do you think that they should have Let
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: Elijah garcie a? Fight maybe at a similar, level but just,
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: stylistically not that for like a fight or two and
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: see if he made some, improvements or do you, think,
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: hey let's get him in, there like you, KNOW i don't,
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: know because he, looked like you, said it's almost like
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: they moved. Him this happens with some young fighters at
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: times where you have these you, know you're nineteen and you're,
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: twenty and you look damn, good right and you're, like
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: that guy just went the distance with that guy and
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: he took him, out you, know and so it seemed
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: like not that they moved him crazy because they. Didn't
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: they didn't step them up to the highest. Point but
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: do you think that maybe just a couple more fights
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: at this level but stylistically not that type of fighter
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: would have helped or do you, think, WELL i, mean
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: what's the, Point, like if you can't beat this, guy
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: then you're gonna probably be an undercard fighter fighting stylistic,
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: fights just you, know for.
- 1:05:00Speaker 5: Entertainment, well maybe what the thing to do would have
- 1:05:03Speaker 5: been looking, back because you, Know garchet has been a
- 1:05:06Speaker 5: lot of boring fights. Too now this didn't turn out that,
- 1:05:09Speaker 5: way but he has. Been maybe maybe the thing to
- 1:05:12Speaker 5: do would have, been especially because you were on Regular.
- 1:05:15Speaker 5: Amazon actually thinking out, loud it probably was the thing to,
- 1:05:18Speaker 5: do you. Know you, know maybe if you wanted to
- 1:05:21Speaker 5: have him test himself against the grouchet because of the
- 1:05:23Speaker 5: style and see if he can overcome. That maybe in
- 1:05:26Speaker 5: a lesser, spot but here you're on the free the
- 1:05:30Speaker 5: Free amazon.
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: Exposure.
- 1:05:33Speaker 5: Opportunities why not put him in a real, brawl you,
- 1:05:37Speaker 5: know find find somebody that that is gonna is gonna
- 1:05:41Speaker 5: brawl with, him even though he's a, puncher.
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: Because that's probably what they're gonna do with him. Now,
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: yeah they'll probably do it.
- 1:05:46Speaker 5: Now but that's the problem when you have the misstep
- 1:05:48Speaker 5: is you lose momentum and people aren't as interested a
- 1:05:52Speaker 5: lot of. Times and, this let's face, it this was
- 1:05:54Speaker 5: not the greatest. Card so you, can in hindsight say
- 1:05:58Speaker 5: maybe that wasn't a good, Move like maybe this should
- 1:06:01Speaker 5: have Been Elijah garcia in a. Brawl, yeah somebody's gonna
- 1:06:06Speaker 5: punch it out with, him you, know ramost that they
- 1:06:09Speaker 5: were kind of trying to do, That i'm sure With
- 1:06:11Speaker 5: salgado Because salgado is real. Sturdy, yeah not gonna, win
- 1:06:16Speaker 5: but he's very sturdy and he does come. Forward so
- 1:06:20Speaker 5: you're gonna get at least usually a pretty entertaining fight with.
- 1:06:24Speaker 5: HIM i think they had that in mind, there but
- 1:06:26Speaker 5: still you had to get a substitute and Then. Fondora you, Know,
- 1:06:30Speaker 5: booker he just didn't really look like he should have
- 1:06:33Speaker 5: been in. There WHAT i liked About fondora is you,
- 1:06:36Speaker 5: know when when he really gets leverage on that upper
- 1:06:40Speaker 5: cut because of his height at that, weight it's it's
- 1:06:45Speaker 5: a it's a devastating, punch that's very, unique and he
- 1:06:47Speaker 5: and he, did he did get him started going out
- 1:06:50Speaker 5: of there with. That SO i like seeing. That but
- 1:06:53Speaker 5: what was kind of the letdown is you did feel
- 1:06:55Speaker 5: like after, watching even THOUGH i Liked fondora a, lot
- 1:06:57Speaker 5: you were kind of like AND i saw a lot
- 1:06:59Speaker 5: of fans to be taken out the same. Way you,
- 1:07:02Speaker 5: know it just wasn't a good enough opponent to get
- 1:07:04Speaker 5: you excited about. Anything so it wasn't for a Free amazon.
- 1:07:11Speaker 5: Opportunity this reminded, me and Again i'll criticize all the
- 1:07:15Speaker 5: promotions on different, things but it was kind of LIKE
- 1:07:19Speaker 5: pbc missing opportunities like they missed On. Fox you, know
- 1:07:24Speaker 5: you're on Regular Amazon, prime not the pay per view
- 1:07:28Speaker 5: like you know you gotta you gotta come, Up you
- 1:07:31Speaker 5: gotta come up with, something you, know and i've you
- 1:07:34Speaker 5: see him try to explain, it and other promotions will
- 1:07:37Speaker 5: apply it to, like, well you know when we're on
- 1:07:40Speaker 5: REGULAR tv that that's got to be our low level
- 1:07:43Speaker 5: because of the, costs you, know we can't afford. Much
- 1:07:46Speaker 5: but it's like the whole idea is the opposite of
- 1:07:49Speaker 5: what it should, be like your your best fight should
- 1:07:51Speaker 5: be when the most people are going to see. Them
- 1:07:54Speaker 5: like that's where boxing. Model boxing model is completely, Broken
- 1:07:58Speaker 5: like like what entertainment model is? That like this is
- 1:08:02Speaker 5: our best so we want to make. Nobody we want
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: to have as few people as possible see, it, right
- 1:08:07Speaker 5: but this is our opportunity to get a lot of.
- 1:08:09Speaker 5: Eyeballs we're going to put our worst product out here.
- 1:08:12Speaker 5: NOW i mean, no you wouldn't run any other kind
- 1:08:15Speaker 5: of business like, that.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: Especially the main. EVENT i did think the like from
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: an entertainment look at. IT i did think the two
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: fights were, entertaining one, sided that, one but especially the main,
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: event that is the main, event you, know like you,
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: Said AND i do think now that you see it
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: in the, ring especially going into, it you weren't thinking much,
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: Anyway but, yeah you could see he didn't really belong
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: with him beyond a couple overhand lefts. It really he
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: wasn't really doing. Much and then that also creates a
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: problem for THE a side because it's, like, well this
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: guy's just in, here like NOW i got to try
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: and take him out and Maybe i'll look back doing.
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: It you, know that didn't, happen but it could.
- 1:09:00Speaker 5: Of you, know it could, have right at Least fundora
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: got him out of. There AND i, LIKE i Like
- 1:09:03Speaker 5: fundora a. Lot he's an entertaining character and he's so
- 1:09:06Speaker 5: unique with what he brings to the ring with that,
- 1:09:08Speaker 5: height you, know had one hundred and fifty four. Pounds
- 1:09:11Speaker 5: SO i like him AND i GET i get the
- 1:09:13Speaker 5: idea of you, Know fondora is a guy we want to.
- 1:09:15Speaker 5: Feature i'm totally good with, that but you, KNOW i
- 1:09:19Speaker 5: just don't, like like that's to me where the and you,
- 1:09:21Speaker 5: KNOW i talked about it as it, happened and it
- 1:09:23Speaker 5: turned out to be, True like they just missed too
- 1:09:26Speaker 5: many opportunities On, fox you know when they had. THAT i,
- 1:09:29Speaker 5: mean and you, know it's too. Bad one of the
- 1:09:32Speaker 5: cards at the end was a great card with you,
- 1:09:34Speaker 5: know surprisingly, so but it was like when you had
- 1:09:37Speaker 5: Like charlo fight and Cor abev and A jagba And
- 1:09:42Speaker 5: calagie and, Yeah baldarris you, know who was a top
- 1:09:45Speaker 5: prospect at the, time got knocked out on. THERE i
- 1:09:47Speaker 5: mean like that was that was like the best card
- 1:09:50Speaker 5: of the year On. Fox but he didn't have enough of.
- 1:09:52Speaker 5: That you had too many ones that were. Terrible, uh
- 1:09:56Speaker 5: and like this is another, one like you, know just you, know,
- 1:09:59Speaker 5: hey this was Your amazon prime. SHOT i would HAVE
- 1:10:03Speaker 5: i would have liked to see a better effort because
- 1:10:05Speaker 5: you know they have they haven't been running them on
- 1:10:08Speaker 5: uh they're Free.
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: Amazon, yeah just just a better. Opponent like you, Said
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: i'll say this With, Fox i'd say POST covid it
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: fell apart prior to that first year and. Changed they
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: were for the most part doing. It BUT i do
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: think you could see the budget fall apart POST covid, too,
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: right you. Could you could clearly see. It it, was you,
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: know and then the whole thing fell.
- 1:10:33Speaker 5: Apart, YEAH i mean you, heard you had heard and
- 1:10:37Speaker 5: you Know Jay rock on there that was as good
- 1:10:39Speaker 5: a fight as you'll.
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: See, well And charlo had like three or four fights
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: on there, too they had Both harrison Fights, harrison they
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: had a bunch of good. Fights, yeah but, yeah it
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: the but clearly there was an issue AFTER covid with
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: the budget because it. Fell it fell on its, face
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: no doubt about.
- 1:10:57Speaker 5: It, yeah there still seems to be something going on like.
- 1:10:59Speaker 5: THAT i, mean THERE'S i don't know if it's. CREDIBLE
- 1:11:02Speaker 5: i have no. IDEA i haven't Heard. Espinosa you AND
- 1:11:05Speaker 5: i both like listen to him kind of commit either
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: way on. That you, know there's some rumors that they're
- 1:11:11Speaker 5: actually like on a time by on These Amazon prime
- 1:11:16Speaker 5: when when it's not on pay per. VIEW i don't
- 1:11:18Speaker 5: know if that's true or. Not i'm not saying it's,
- 1:11:20Speaker 5: true but there's a it's a, rumor AND i haven't
- 1:11:23Speaker 5: heard it completely. DENIED i haven't heard it completely denied.
- 1:11:27Speaker 5: Either so it's a, thought like you, know if it
- 1:11:30Speaker 5: is a time by the, budget that's that's that's a rough.
- 1:11:33Speaker 5: Budget you, know you're if you're buying time to be
- 1:11:37Speaker 5: on there and you got to pay the.
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: Fighters is it you think that's coming from a credible, source, Though,
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: NO i haven't heard.
- 1:11:42Speaker 5: It Like i'll always, say if it's, INCREDIBLE i haven't
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: seen it from credible. Source i've seen it thrown around out,
- 1:11:48Speaker 5: there So i'm not saying it's, true BUT i haven't
- 1:11:51Speaker 5: seen it like denied straight out.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: Either So i'm keeping it BECAUSE i can. Understand like
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: The fandora. Thing you, know he fought last, year he got,
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: hurt so he had to be out for a little.
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: Bit then The terrence conference stuff was getting a little mixed.
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: Up then The spence fight looked like it was gonna,
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: happen and so that's. Cool you come back against an okay, fighter,
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: fine but it just. Wasn't, yeah it wasn't because because
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: he has multiple fights here that are right there for him.
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: Now SO i, understand, Like, okay he's been out for ten,
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: months get him. Back but you, know it is the
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: like we talk about at least be, solid because you
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: know these guys aren't fighting. Enough at least be solid
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: and not not a guy who you, know it didn't
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: look good before and then when he see him in the,
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: ring it just just didn't look. Good BUT i will
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: say this About Hazus, RAMOS i still think that there's
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: enough there because he does like he he's a little more,
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: responsible he keeps a nice, guard he does have a good,
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: job he does know when to go to, body does
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: have good hand, Speed but it does seem like for
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: quite some time, now the game plan has been a
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: little bit more. Contained, yeah and in some, ways, yeah that's.
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: Good it can be good in certain, fights that's for.
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: Sure but it's it's like they used the first handful
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: of rounds to slowly break a guy, down but it.
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: Doesn't it doesn't seem like he's letting as many combos
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: go until later in the. Fight So i'm still Not
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: i'm not as down on him as, you but clearly
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: there was a game plan thing that they're working, on
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: AND i Don't it's almost like you have to have
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: the right opponent for it to look all good, together
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: but you can't really rely on. That but BUT i
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: STILL i still think he has enough pop in, there you,
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: know especially if someone's gonna come at. Him.
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: Yeah you do see it more with him when somebody
- 1:14:05Speaker 5: comes at.
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: Him.
- 1:14:06Speaker 5: Yeah So i'm not totally down on him or. Anything you,
- 1:14:09Speaker 5: Know i've liked him a lot in the, past BUT
- 1:14:11Speaker 5: i just in recent, Fights i'd like to see more power.
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: Out, yeah and that's whether he just doesn't have it
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: as much as we thought or it's a combination of
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: the game plan where he's being more, responsible because you
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: could clearly see. That but, YEAH i don't, know we'll.
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: SEE i, mean he's in the right, division he's what
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: twenty four, NOW i, think.
- 1:14:34Speaker 5: Well like you, said when he when he Thought spencer
- 1:14:36Speaker 5: And spencer decided to come at, him he caught him
- 1:14:38Speaker 5: with a real big shot. EARLY i mean that was
- 1:14:42Speaker 5: that was a real good. Shot so you, know there
- 1:14:45Speaker 5: was an example when somebody came at, him and you,
- 1:14:49Speaker 5: know there have been some fights where guys were boxing
- 1:14:53Speaker 5: them And ramos was clearly winning. It but, yeah you
- 1:14:55Speaker 5: didn't see you didn't see the, power the power quite
- 1:14:59Speaker 5: quite As.
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: Yeah he didn't step on the gas as much, either but.
- 1:15:03Speaker 5: Like he didn't Even grosario was in there with him.
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: Late you, know was a perfect example fight of.
- 1:15:10Speaker 5: It, Yeah I'm i'm not rolling them. Out i'm not
- 1:15:14Speaker 5: even Counting garcia Because i've liked both of them in the.
- 1:15:17Speaker 5: Past but you, Know garcia struggled, Again ramos isn't. Struggling
- 1:15:23Speaker 5: But i'd just like to see a little little more.
- 1:15:25Speaker 5: Power BUT i did like fund or you, know get people.
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: Out of there with the.
- 1:15:28Speaker 5: Uppercuts, yeah but you know it's not JUST pbc like top.
- 1:15:34Speaker 5: Rank you, know they're losing a deal. Anyway but they're
- 1:15:36Speaker 5: talking like Today de Los santo's Fighting Key Sean. Davis you,
- 1:15:40Speaker 5: know really you got to even do better than.
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: That you just you just.
- 1:15:44Speaker 5: Do it's it's not they're not it's just not. Good
- 1:15:48Speaker 5: it's just not good enough, stuff you. Know and and
- 1:15:50Speaker 5: when when these guys are have the opportunities with.
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: The exposure, stylistically that could that could be kind of
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: weird on The Davis so the W bo did you?
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: Know of course it's funny who when when they go
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: right To amando like the second of fight's, done and
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: then other times it's, like oh The, Mando oh, yeah
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: we'll get.
- 1:16:16Speaker 6: To, it you.
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: Know but either, way they did call it and It's
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: Xander zaiaz and you, know looking at the fine, print
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: the only way you get out of it is if it's,
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: uh you, know a. UNIFICATION i, mean they they're talking late.
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: Summer if they could come back late Summer Xanders, aias
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: what would you think about that? Fight it would be
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: it would be.
- 1:16:40Speaker 5: Interesting and this is no criticism OF pbc to, me
- 1:16:43Speaker 5: because you, KNOW i don't think the alphabet seriously like you,
- 1:16:46Speaker 5: SAID i mean that they're they're they're mandating this Because
- 1:16:49Speaker 5: ziaz fights for top. RANK i, mean you, know, yes
- 1:16:52Speaker 5: that's all that's, about not only, Right So i'm not
- 1:16:55Speaker 5: like gonna be critical at, all like some fans OF
- 1:16:57Speaker 5: pbc In Front. Dora it's just gonna be simply a
- 1:17:00Speaker 5: plain old do they feel like Fighting zai is or?
- 1:17:04Speaker 5: Not if they don't feel Like zaia, is they're not
- 1:17:07Speaker 5: going to worry about the wbu bo. Alphabet AND i
- 1:17:11Speaker 5: AND i would. Myself everybody's making, like, oh this is
- 1:17:15Speaker 5: gonna be an. AUTOMATIC i would, think you.
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: Know he's got two belts so he can drop one her.
- 1:17:20Speaker 5: If I'M pbc Or Front, door and, Yeah i'm just
- 1:17:22Speaker 5: gonna drop you, Know i'm just going to drop that
- 1:17:24Speaker 5: IF i don't feel it doesn't mean he can't beat.
- 1:17:26Speaker 5: Him it's just, again it's a top rank, thing like
- 1:17:28Speaker 5: do you feel like right, Exactly so like if PBC's
- 1:17:33Speaker 5: got something better, planned you're gonna do. THAT i, mean
- 1:17:35Speaker 5: The zoo rematch is still out. There apparently THEY'RE i.
- 1:17:40Speaker 5: SAW i think this was a Credible australian THING i,
- 1:17:44Speaker 5: saw and it makes sense because he just bought over.
- 1:17:45Speaker 5: THERE i guess they're talking that If zoo wins Against,
- 1:17:48Speaker 5: spencer he's gonna Fight. Thurman, Yeah july. Sixth, okay they a,
- 1:17:53Speaker 5: date literally a.
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: Date. YEAH i would think that will, happen just because
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: they were gonna you, know, yeah SO.
- 1:17:59Speaker 5: I they don't want to go right To fundora for whatever,
- 1:18:02Speaker 5: reason maybe because style, Matchup BUT i would FIGURE pbc
- 1:18:08Speaker 5: is gonna AND i don't blame him one. Bit they're
- 1:18:09Speaker 5: gonna they're gonna do With fundora or whatever they were gonna.
- 1:18:12Speaker 5: Do and if it's Not, ZIONS i don't think they're
- 1:18:14Speaker 5: gonna detour To zias like everybody was saying the last
- 1:18:17Speaker 5: couple of, days like oh he'll be Fighting Zaias Now i'm, thinking.
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: Like no, out hang.
- 1:18:23Speaker 7: On you, know the the top rank can have THE
- 1:18:26Speaker 7: wbo do whatever they want THE. Wbo and you know
- 1:18:31Speaker 7: the fact that this was such a quick, fight you,
- 1:18:34Speaker 7: know to go In august or Late july and then
- 1:18:39Speaker 7: still be able to maybe get.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: Something late or. Early you, know maybe they will think
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: about it that. WAY i don't, know BUT i just hope. That.
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: Uh the THING i like most about that fight is
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: it's a top ten. Fight it's good or, whatever BUT
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: i would like him the fact that he come back
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: In august or something that is like that actually does
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: it for me, too where you're, like, okay solid fight
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: and he's coming. Back, okay you know that that actually is.
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: Appealing so but like you, said we'll see if they
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: if he can get, more if he can get double
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: or triple the money and fight a better. Opponent you,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: Know i'm not gonna, complain you, know that's for. Sure but,
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: yeah fifty. Four they you, know they have Access they
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: either have a bunch of fighters or they have access to.
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: Fighters and, obviously you, Know lubin has a fight coming,
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: up and so you never, know maybe he'll uh maybe
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: that would be. IT i don't, know we'll. See So
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: cambosas looks like he was just kind of trying to
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: stay busy or tune back up to be able to
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: Fight Richardson. Hitchins that's what this fight.
- 1:19:47Speaker 5: Was that's another fight nobody nobody.
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: Wants, yeah and it goes to. That people love to
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: talk about THE iba like it's, great but it's, like
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: how the hell why is he ranked? There what would
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: he be doing ranked?
- 1:19:59Speaker 5: There you, Know cambosas has had six rounds against you,
- 1:20:04Speaker 5: know ta Female, lopez and that's been, it, right we
- 1:20:06Speaker 5: can't say it now he did have those, rounds but
- 1:20:09Speaker 5: that has been.
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: It so it was like twenty four and oh against
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: hany you, know like how many rounds that he? WINNING
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: i don't. REMEMBER i don't think.
- 1:20:17Speaker 5: Many you, know it got stopped by Low, machenko who's you,
- 1:20:21Speaker 5: know obviously all older at this. Point hasn't even it's just,
- 1:20:26Speaker 5: nobody you, know nobody wants to See hitchins Fight. Campo
- 1:20:29Speaker 5: so this is the kind of crap that they just
- 1:20:33Speaker 5: seem like to, me they're they're lining up a lot
- 1:20:35Speaker 5: of this, crap and it's like for all the Things
- 1:20:39Speaker 5: i've been, saying it's just you, know the sports and
- 1:20:43Speaker 5: sports and bad shape with.
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: It it just it just is. Well and the funny
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: thing is is like they tried to have some guy
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: just you, know it was a late, filling but this
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: guy actually fought him pretty damn. Tough, actually oh, yeah
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: rounds Where i'm, like oh a, second you know it
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: was actually a good scrap, randomly but that it wasn't
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: supposed to be a good, scrap you.
- 1:21:05Speaker 5: KNOW i, MEAN i would have liked to see, him
- 1:21:08Speaker 5: you know with top rank, connection like you, know Let
- 1:21:11Speaker 5: cambosos be food for abdollamation or something like.
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: THAT i, mean and he probably wouldn't want to do,
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: that you, know, RIGHT i.
- 1:21:19Speaker 5: Mean i'll watch that ON, espn you, know but.
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: You, know you you could say that'd be a good
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: name for, him, Right but is it really a name For?
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: Hitchens like what what does that really does that? Bring?
- 1:21:33Speaker 5: Enough not really right because because updollamation is going to
- 1:21:37Speaker 5: get you out at her and which hit With, Hitchens
- 1:21:38Speaker 5: that's not something that's always going to happen. Either so,
- 1:21:41Speaker 5: yeah fight fight where you don't see him, losing but
- 1:21:45Speaker 5: it might not be. Entertaining, yeah, yeah he. May he
- 1:21:49Speaker 5: may just dominate it and out box him for twelve
- 1:21:51Speaker 5: and it might be a dull.
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: Fight, yeah did you what other fights did you? See
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: did you See Lester martinez or that Her Nandez luciro
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: Or Sky Sky nicholson And Tierra brown just.
- 1:22:07Speaker 5: A, nicolson just A. NICHOLSON i mean it's nothing like
- 1:22:11Speaker 5: personal against, her but her style you, know has been top.
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: Three skill, wise Like eddie was, saying she's just.
- 1:22:18Speaker 5: Not entertaining and she doesn't put any any pop on. Anybody. Whatsoever,
- 1:22:25Speaker 5: yeah and you, know now she's got an alphabet bell and,
- 1:22:28Speaker 5: like for that, REASON i was happy to see her
- 1:22:31Speaker 5: take THE. L i MEAN i just, Was i'm, like
- 1:22:33Speaker 5: AND i don't Want, sky you, KNOW i, mean she's she's,
- 1:22:37Speaker 5: personable you, know she's got a good, story but but
- 1:22:40Speaker 5: in the, ring she's just she's just a dull. FIGHTER i,
- 1:22:44Speaker 5: mean she just. IS i, mean you, know come, on
- 1:22:46Speaker 5: she's just no. Pop she doesn't try to use any.
- 1:22:49Speaker 5: Pop and and you, know, yeah when she took THE,
- 1:22:54Speaker 5: L i was just, like, good can we not see
- 1:22:57Speaker 5: her in the main any main events or be built
- 1:22:59Speaker 5: up because because of it's her. Style that's just What i'm.
- 1:23:03Speaker 5: Saying like her styles just for, me you, know JUST
- 1:23:07Speaker 5: i MEAN i just watching her come, UP i just you,
- 1:23:10Speaker 5: know couldn't you, know just just the style was just
- 1:23:14Speaker 5: just it's just. TERRIBLE i just don't look forward to
- 1:23:16Speaker 5: watching her fight for that. Reason and so when she
- 1:23:19Speaker 5: picked up the split decision, LOSS i was, Like, okay
- 1:23:22Speaker 5: maybe we can bump her down a. Level let's not
- 1:23:26Speaker 5: this is WHERE i hate immediate. Rematches i'm, like let's
- 1:23:28Speaker 5: not have an immediate.
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: Rematch you, know that is, uh that's a great. Point
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: that's a really great point because we don't need, it
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: that's for. Sure you, KNOW i gotta, admit like a
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: promoter is gonna promote. It it is what it. Is you,
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: know she's not anywhere near a top ten skill you,
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: know in the, world like he was, saying but it's
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: not even that it was. Her she always kept Pressing,
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: serrano and to, ME i was, like come, on, dude
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: he would eat you. Up like it's just it's just,
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: facts you, Know and when you, like you, Know tierra
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: was able to, do and then you add what a man,
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: does like come on the, punch, rate the. Volume and
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: because she has, shop, YEAH i mean she has.
- 1:24:19Speaker 5: Pop she's one of the only women that with the
- 1:24:22Speaker 5: disadvantage of the two minute rounds can put put her
- 1:24:26Speaker 5: put some herd on. YOU i thought the same, thing
- 1:24:27Speaker 5: like they're they're opposite fighters like, that you know in
- 1:24:31Speaker 5: the women's. GAME i, Mean serrano has pop that can
- 1:24:33Speaker 5: hurt you in a two minute, round and and And
- 1:24:35Speaker 5: Sky nicholson has like the least pop in the women's.
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: Women's, game, RIGHT i MEAN i always thought of The
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: Raging bowl movie where he said he ain't pretty no.
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: More you, know he always you're not gonna be pretty.
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: Anymore i'll tell you. That you don't want to mess With. Serrano.
- 1:24:54Speaker 5: Yeah, no that was not a good direction for her to,
- 1:24:57Speaker 5: look and it's backed up by the. Fact doesn't mean
- 1:24:59Speaker 5: we know what's going to, happened BUT i do see
- 1:25:01Speaker 5: she's a slight favorite Over tailor for the third, fight
- 1:25:04Speaker 5: so you, know that shows the kind of respect she
- 1:25:07Speaker 5: gets like, that ALTHOUGH i did think she won the
- 1:25:09Speaker 5: first two.
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: Fights, yeah that's the. Thing They're they're gonna give her this.
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: One then they'll do a. Fourth. Yeah, yeah there's the
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: one That.
- 1:25:16Speaker 5: Tailor there's will be the one like you know, boxing
- 1:25:18Speaker 5: Like tailor actually somehow Hustles or they give it.
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: To you and Then taylor and be, like well, sono
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: you know that is. Boxing and then they'll do one In, december, Right.
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: YEAH i do love that that's On. Netflix. THOUGH i love.
- 1:25:33Speaker 5: THAT i, mean and that is that was one of
- 1:25:35Speaker 5: the the only good boxing Decisions i've seen in recent. Years,
- 1:25:40Speaker 5: like if you're gonna a third, fight you make sure
- 1:25:43Speaker 5: it gets. Exposed they did.
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: It it's on that they already got the. Exposure now
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: they can lean right into, it you, know and come
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: right back on the same. Platform and there is a
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: fairly strong rumor now it's just a, rumor, okay that
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: cry for And canelo potentially On.
- 1:26:03Speaker 5: Netflix, yeah that's coming out of credible, sources, right coming
- 1:26:07Speaker 5: out of credible AND i.
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: Last WEEK i, said, hey you, know we we talked
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: about this, before about The Jake paul thing and. Fight
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: Jake paul didn't go To. Crawford but so if you
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: didn't do, THAT i think it, missed took a. Misstep,
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: however if you turn right around and In september you
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: give Us, netflix, yes, okay Then i'll Then i'll shut.
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: Up you shut me. Up you, know, NO i Agree
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: canelo Fights crawford On.
- 1:26:33Speaker 5: Netflix i'm Gonna i'm gonna look at it differently exactly
- 1:26:38Speaker 5: then then Canelos, then to, Me canelo is conscious of
- 1:26:42Speaker 5: that us sensibilities That i've sometimes, SAID i don't know
- 1:26:45Speaker 5: if he doesn't get it or doesn't.
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: Care doesn't. CARE i think he doesn't.
- 1:26:50Speaker 5: CARE i always lean towards that he doesn't.
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: Care but.
- 1:26:54Speaker 5: Because you know HE i think he's a pretty smart
- 1:26:57Speaker 5: guy like. That, yeah, yeah just to care like, That
- 1:27:00Speaker 5: i'm leaning towards that he didn't.
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: Care but, yeah and, honestly he's been paid so handsomely
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: for so, Long like upfront money too that you know
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: ten years ago wasn't available upfront unless Your mayweather pacyat
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: or something that's. It so you, KNOW i guess that
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: plays into it, too where he's, like you know, what either,
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: Way i'm going to be making my.
- 1:27:23Speaker 5: Money so you Fight crawford On. Netflix that'll take care
- 1:27:27Speaker 5: of THE us sensibility and then.
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: Some, yeah that would especially now that they got their
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: stuff together and it's not gonna be all choppy and
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: stuff like, That like the fact that they got THE
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: nfl on there now it was, like, okay we're this
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: was good to. Go we're. Good i'll trust it, Now
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: so that would be. Phenomenal that would be. Great, well
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: did you see Uh Lester martinez on pro box.
- 1:27:51Speaker 5: That he was thinking of watching, it BUT i did

- 1:28:24Speaker 1: you That Hernandez lucero Or, lucio that's actually worth a.
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: Watch that was a good. Fight that was a good.
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: Fight if you're bored or. Whatever at some, POINT i
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: know you, said you're really.
- 1:28:33Speaker 5: Busy so, yeah that was part of, it because you,
- 1:28:36Speaker 5: KNOW i had mixed. EMOTIONS i wasn't necessarily. DOWN i
- 1:28:39Speaker 5: like the idea of pro box during the, week but
- 1:28:41Speaker 5: THEN i could see where they were figuring, out what
- 1:28:45Speaker 5: if we have a spot on A saturday for a
- 1:28:47Speaker 5: card that works for, Us we're gonna do.
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: IT i can do a lot of THE us stuff
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: went To, saudi so they're, like, hey why, not, right
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: we're gonna be at, night they'll be at, day you know.
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: EXACTLY i agree though that that that, midweek Even thursday,
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: NIGHT i loved. It uh you, KNOW i thought that was.
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: Prime and then it separated itself, too you, know from the,
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: pack and it will be you, KNOW i didn't hear
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: many people talking about it that, night you, know, Unfortunately so,
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: yeah it does get in. Obviously right, now college basketball
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: is what it's all about right. Now so, yeah that
- 1:29:24Speaker 1: that's so this weekend we have Ze pada And farmer
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: and Uh mayor And Sandy, ryan both of them. Rematches
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: mikayla was in a bunch of tight fights prior and
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: she was on the short end and then you, know
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: she GOT i thought she got this win, anyway but
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: it was a competitive, fight, yes and Then farmer outperformed Against.
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: Zapata for, ME i was like, wow BECAUSE i remember
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: saying the fight before. IT i remember, saying, Wow, okay
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: maybe he has more THAN i thought, left BUT i
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: still under undervalued him going into The beta fight and
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: maybe as the paid that had you, Know shakhor on
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: his mind or. Something but, uh but he got caught
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: up in a fight and it was he was getting
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: countered and in all. That so BUT i do thinks
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: They pata will tighten up in this. REMATCH i think
- 1:30:20Speaker 1: it'll be, competitive BUT i think second half MAYBE i
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: think he'll just land the bigger. Shots but you, know
- 1:30:29Speaker 1: The Sandy Ryan, MAYER i just Think mayor's just more, experienced,
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: uh with more, fights because Because Sandy ryan's you, know
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: in many fights but she has spot for all the.
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: Opponents what do you what are your thoughts on these?
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: Rematches was?
- 1:30:45Speaker 5: SHOT i was shocked At farmer Gave zapata a tough
- 1:30:49Speaker 5: fight in the first. FIGHT i haven't been quite as
- 1:30:52Speaker 5: high on The pata as a lot of. PEOPLE i,
- 1:30:54Speaker 5: MEAN i think he's, good But i'm not quite as
- 1:30:56Speaker 5: high on him as a lot of. People BUT i
- 1:30:58Speaker 5: wasn't expecting far to give him a tough. FIGHT i
- 1:31:02Speaker 5: Thought farmers long long past his. Day that shocked. Me
- 1:31:08Speaker 5: Now i'm looking at the REMATCH i. SAW i THINK
- 1:31:10Speaker 5: i saw as a pod of like a minus six
- 1:31:12Speaker 5: hundred favorite or something like. That. Check so you, know
- 1:31:15Speaker 5: the odds makers aren't thinking that that's gonna happen. Again
- 1:31:19Speaker 5: and you, know even Though farmers a boxer And zapeidas
- 1:31:23Speaker 5: a come forward kind of. Guy you, know The painda
- 1:31:27Speaker 5: has some level of skill and his volume is real.
- 1:31:31Speaker 5: Good so like it doesn't really look to me even
- 1:31:35Speaker 5: even Though farmer is a, boxer but he has no
- 1:31:37Speaker 5: pop like. That it it should have been a tough
- 1:31:40Speaker 5: fight the first time. Around it, was but LIKE i
- 1:31:44Speaker 5: don't even though you Know farmers a, BOXER i don't
- 1:31:48Speaker 5: was the paid of. Style he hadn't had problems in the. Past,
- 1:31:51Speaker 5: really LIKE i don't another As i'm, SAYING i. DON'T
- 1:31:54Speaker 5: i don't see why it should be for him that
- 1:31:57Speaker 5: hard of a. Style So i'm with. YOU i would
- 1:31:59Speaker 5: think he gets together this time and doesn't have any.
- 1:32:03Speaker 5: Trouble that's When i'm. Anticipating i'd be surprised if he.
- 1:32:07Speaker 5: Does But i'm gonna look at. It don't want a discredit.
- 1:32:11Speaker 5: Farmer i'd give him credit for coming to fight and
- 1:32:13Speaker 5: when nobody expecting, it coming up with that kind of.
- 1:32:16Speaker 5: Effort that's what his. Stands we love to. SEE i
- 1:32:18Speaker 5: give him all the credit in the world for. That
- 1:32:20Speaker 5: that was a, Shocker BUT i don't see it happening
- 1:32:24Speaker 5: again this. Time SO i gotta go with the odds
- 1:32:26Speaker 5: makers and just, think you, know maybe maybe he's A
- 1:32:28Speaker 5: paddy even gets a late stoppage in this one or.
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: Something that's What i'm. Thinking like A tko fan duel
- 1:32:35Speaker 1: has him plus four sixty DraftKings plus four twenty. FIVE
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: i see a plus four. Fifty so, yeah you're. Right
- 1:32:42Speaker 1: they don't, uh they don't think. It they think it's
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: gonna be.
- 1:32:46Speaker 5: A, lot a lot.
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: Lighter whereas The, mayor, Saydy, ryan that's. Tight guy is
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: minus one ten apiece miyas one fifteen minus one.
- 1:32:55Speaker 5: Twelve they got that like true even. Money and that
- 1:32:58Speaker 5: first fight was. ENTERTAINING i liked it a, lot SO
- 1:33:01Speaker 5: i like this one a lot in terms of entertainment.
- 1:33:05Speaker 5: Value the first fight was real. GOOD i did Think
- 1:33:07Speaker 5: mayor did enough to win the first. Fight she had
- 1:33:11Speaker 5: lost those couple of close ones and in big fights
- 1:33:14Speaker 5: and WHERE i thought she could have gotten the nod
- 1:33:16Speaker 5: AND i thought She this was, tight BUT i thought
- 1:33:19Speaker 5: she deserved. IT i thought it was a fair, decision
- 1:33:21Speaker 5: real good. FIGHT i kind of like her. AGAIN i
- 1:33:24Speaker 5: thought she'd pulled the upset the first time and it was,
- 1:33:26Speaker 5: tight BUT i thought she won. IT i would see
- 1:33:30Speaker 5: it probably playing out pretty. Similarly BUT i think that's
- 1:33:34Speaker 5: good money for he then, really, YEAH i Think mayor's good.
- 1:33:37Speaker 5: Enough i'm, wondering like you know a lot of. It
- 1:33:42Speaker 5: i'm More i'm wondering a little bit out of the
- 1:33:44Speaker 5: ring part, Too like you know a lot of top
- 1:33:47Speaker 5: rank like you And i'll say we you know THERE espn.
- 1:33:50Speaker 5: Thing it's been hard to see the plan they have
- 1:33:53Speaker 5: Had mayor get some good, exposure but then she was
- 1:33:55Speaker 5: over there fighting on you, know match, room his own,
- 1:33:58Speaker 5: cards like they were letting her do. It but like
- 1:34:01Speaker 5: and then she's, back and so you had that stop
- 1:34:04Speaker 5: and start like this is a good even money. Fight
- 1:34:07Speaker 5: it was real. Entertaining But i'm like curious out of the,
- 1:34:09Speaker 5: Ring like even though we're nearing the end of the
- 1:34:11Speaker 5: top ranked, deal, like Did mayor ever take? Hold like
- 1:34:15Speaker 5: in terms of, ratings you know WHAT i? Mean, like you,
- 1:34:17Speaker 5: know she's got some. Exposure there's a lot of these
- 1:34:20Speaker 5: people top ranks used haven't really now they still have
- 1:34:24Speaker 5: built up more eyeballs than other, fighters they have more
- 1:34:27Speaker 5: value like, that but they haven't become like the stars.
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: From the right right there it, was you, know taking
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: that next step right a real ticket seller or being
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: a GREAT b side.
- 1:34:40Speaker 5: Exactly that just keeps not. Happening So i'm kind of,
- 1:34:43Speaker 5: curious like what will the ratings, be you, know like
- 1:34:47Speaker 5: we're nearing the end of the steal And Mikaela mayer's
- 1:34:49Speaker 5: got some, exposure so, like you, know what what can
- 1:34:53Speaker 5: she draw from a rating in a good fight.
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: And The elite eight will be going? On well maybe
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: not by that time at. NIGHT i don't.
- 1:35:00Speaker 5: Know i'm not sure if it actually. Right that does hurt. It,
- 1:35:03Speaker 5: Man i'll tell you that you reminded me that was years.
- 1:35:06Speaker 5: Back but because the fight was so, Good lipponetts Thought
- 1:35:12Speaker 5: peterson as counter programming and it was a great, fight
- 1:35:16Speaker 5: and it was.
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: Right it was right.
- 1:35:20Speaker 5: Up, YEAH i think it WAS fs. One it was
- 1:35:22Speaker 5: right up against THE NCAAs and it got a really
- 1:35:25Speaker 5: bad rating and the fight was, great AND i thought,
- 1:35:28Speaker 5: that you, KNOW i knew why they did, it SO
- 1:35:29Speaker 5: i didn't blame him for doing.
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: It but it just, that.
- 1:35:33Speaker 5: Man THE ncaa tournament in THE us is second only
- 1:35:36Speaker 5: to The Super bowl in sports event drawing, Eyeball so
- 1:35:41Speaker 5: you can get wiped out by AN.
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: Ncaa, yeah and the first weekend is the biggest rating
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: since nineteen ninety.
- 1:35:49Speaker 5: Three see there you. Go that's interesting BECAUSE i like
- 1:35:57Speaker 5: repeating this stack because it surprised me WHEN i first.
- 1:35:59Speaker 5: Read it's a team the Stat but it's it's true
- 1:36:02Speaker 5: like you always think with THE ncaa, tournament, like, well
- 1:36:05Speaker 5: it's it's about like when the The cinderella sleeper the. Underdog,
- 1:36:09Speaker 5: well if you look at the all time, ratings it's
- 1:36:12Speaker 5: when the heavy when the heavyweights, collide that is what
- 1:36:15Speaker 5: the ratings go through the, Roof like what if and.
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: They still haven't touched that That Larry bird Metch johnson
- 1:36:23Speaker 1: touch that, right like that's all about itself, chilling.
- 1:36:26Speaker 5: Like it's it's not we feel, like you, know it's
- 1:36:29Speaker 5: like When kentucky When kentucky blue, bloods it's the Blue
- 1:36:32Speaker 5: bloods When kentuck Like, duke the ratings are.
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: Through the, roof like so, Yeah i'm hearing all this.
- 1:36:38Speaker 1: Stuff if this it. Discontinues first of, all two years,
- 1:36:42Speaker 1: ago we had, uh we had Uh Florida atlantic in
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: the final, four, right, okay calm. Down we Had San
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: Diego state in the Final just calm down a little bit.
- 1:36:55Speaker 5: For what Two.
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: You, Know it's kind of like THE. Nba you, know
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: people say they don't they don't like repeats and all.
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: That oh, yeah that's bullshit they do because look at the.
- 1:37:06Speaker 1: Ratings when when a, team even like The, celtics if
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: they make it this year and they have a chance
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: to repeat and that team is stopping, them that creates
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: something exactly, yep. Exactly and then if they win it
- 1:37:20Speaker 1: and Then denver gets back in there and they beat,
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: them and all of a sudden you got a, river you,
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: know and that's it's just so. Funny but, yeah it's
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: they have a bunch of blue bloods.
- 1:37:29Speaker 5: Left well that's WHAT i was kind of, thinking is,
- 1:37:31Speaker 5: like like you, said people they don't do what they
- 1:37:34Speaker 5: say they. Do so with all the blue bloods and
- 1:37:36Speaker 5: these big schools, left the most big schools ever left
- 1:37:39Speaker 5: in the sweet, Sixteen, yeah the ratings could be extremely.
- 1:37:42Speaker 5: High that's kind of what we're getting, at is like
- 1:37:45Speaker 5: you could really get destroyed as counter programming with all
- 1:37:49Speaker 5: these you, know well known basketball schools still.
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: Left, yeah AND i did my basketball show last night
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: and a lot of people were blaming this and blaming.
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: That but, honestly this was conference realignment Because arizona Was pack,
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: Twelve houston was AC r, right and THEN byu was two.
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: Different they were in The Mountain, west in The West,
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: coast so you'd have your normal seven proferences in. It
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: normally that that's how it would have played. Out, well
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: that's not it's because they want to blame. Transferport they
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: want to blame and allow on. This it's, like, well
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: those things. Existed the, transferport for, one existed much earlier
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: in college basketball because if a coach. Left they most
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: of them could transfer and play right, away you. Know
- 1:38:45Speaker 1: now THE ncaa would block some guys, randomly you. KNOW
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: i remember The minnesota had a guy that was ready to,
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: go and they blocked him, randomly you. Know but, overall
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: you could actually transfer and play a lot more in
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: basketball before it became an official rule to be able
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: to do. It but, yeah it came down, to, actually
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: this one is conference alignment because there would normally be
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: seven different conferences in the sweet, sixteen six or seven at,
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: least and that that's actually what's blocking how it would
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: look because those three teams would normally be outside the top,
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: four top, five back. Twelve so but, yeah so yeah it.
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: Is it's gonna be you. KNOW i, mean, yeah it's
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: gonna be. Interesting it's gonna be. Interesting but so, okay
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: so so you got you Got. MARY i just Think
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: mayor's uh just more. Versatile she can fight on the,
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: inside she could, box you can kind of do what
- 1:39:40Speaker 1: you need to do to win the. Fight AND i
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: think that's what it's gonna come down.
- 1:39:44Speaker 5: To, Yeah AND i always felt, like again for the women's,
- 1:39:48Speaker 5: game your you're handicapped with the shorter rounds so she
- 1:39:51Speaker 5: doesn't get the. KOs BUT i thought her pops, decent you,
- 1:39:54Speaker 5: know like the. Activity, yeah with the you, know she's
- 1:39:57Speaker 5: got pretty good leverage on her punches and she, throws
- 1:40:00Speaker 5: so you know she can. Sting she can sting. You
- 1:40:03Speaker 5: now you're going to feel, it you, know when she hits.
- 1:40:06Speaker 5: You SO i give her a slight, edge but that
- 1:40:08Speaker 5: should be a good.
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: Fight, yeah all. Right so we did get a little
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: bit of information about the t K O Turkey league
- 1:40:19Speaker 1: and stuff like, that or you, know they say it's a,
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: league but then it's not a, League, john but they
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: said it's a, league you, know so it's kind of
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: kind of you, know we still got to figure out
- 1:40:29Speaker 1: what it's going to. Be but there was a there
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: was information coming out about the the, ratings the, rankings
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: i should, say and the pay, scale and there wasn't
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: a bunch of pushback from. It SO i think it's
- 1:40:48Speaker 1: probably in the. Realm and then also if you look
- 1:40:52Speaker 1: at t K oh YOU, us you, KNOW, ufc like
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: this would be more in the realm with what they'd
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: want to. Do, now, well it sounds like they're paying
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: him ten min they're paying them ten. Million turkey's paying
- 1:41:05Speaker 1: them ten million a year as a feat just be, like,
- 1:41:08Speaker 1: HEY i want you to operate it, now and there's
- 1:41:14Speaker 1: not a big risk for. Them it doesn't seem now
- 1:41:17Speaker 1: marketing and all, that of, course and you know a
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: lot of the talk is they're just gonna take that
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: top ranked, deal, Right but the way they structured, it
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: it was kind of, like, so you, know Is turkey
- 1:41:34Speaker 1: gonna buy up continue to buy up more talent and
- 1:41:37Speaker 1: then let This Prospect contender series go on and then
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: bunch them. Together because when you Hear Dana, white he's,
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: LIKE i don't plan on working with other, people and
- 1:41:51Speaker 1: we're gonna have a. Belt so of course that goes
- 1:41:54Speaker 1: to who's the? Rankings and they're not gonna use The ring.
- 1:41:56Speaker 1: Magazine supposedly they're not going to use The Ring, ratings
- 1:41:59Speaker 1: which makes sense because they wouldn't have enough of the
- 1:42:02Speaker 1: people in. It SO i don't, know it's like they had,
- 1:42:07Speaker 1: like you, know if you're ranked from you, know, seven
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: five to, ten your pay is. This if you're ranked
- 1:42:17Speaker 1: three to, four your pay is. This AND i do
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: want to know who's gonna do the? Rankings one. Two
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: Dana white even said, that you, know they need a
- 1:42:26Speaker 1: lot of scouts and they got to figure this stuff out.
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: There they're not that quickly gonna start doing this. Stuff
- 1:42:33Speaker 1: they may be the promoter for That Canelo, crawford but
- 1:42:37Speaker 1: that's just a big, Event.
- 1:42:39Speaker 4: SO i don't.
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: Know it's it's kind of, like so are they gonna
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: because THE ufc rankings tend to go off. ENTERTAINMENT i,
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: mean that's What i've noticed that they go off entertainment
- 1:42:53Speaker 1: because guys that are very, skilled it'll take them seventeen
- 1:42:58Speaker 1: fights and you're, like this guy has lost is you?
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: Know but, anyway what are your thoughts just off some
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: of the stuff that's come out. Lately we talked about
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: a little bit, before but now it is, official it's
- 1:43:10Speaker 1: it's you, know it's coming, In it's it's.
- 1:43:12Speaker 5: Here, Basically i'm kind of with what you were alluding.
- 1:43:17Speaker 5: TO i feel like there's more informations getting getting out.
- 1:43:21Speaker 5: There it's it's becoming more confused and jumbled as to
- 1:43:26Speaker 5: what exactly they're trying to do. HERE i, mean you,
- 1:43:29Speaker 5: know the most disappointing THING i heard BECAUSE i want
- 1:43:33Speaker 5: something to go on differently with the. Sport if you,
- 1:43:37Speaker 5: know we're gonna be open minded about The Turkey ala
- 1:43:41Speaker 5: chic and Whatever Dana white's gonna. Do but but THEN
- 1:43:44Speaker 5: i See turkey alask he couldn't even last as long
- 1:43:48Speaker 5: as LIKE pbc did and LIKE hbo, did ignoring the.
- 1:43:51Speaker 5: Alphabets like he got a little tiny pushback from THE
- 1:43:54Speaker 5: wbc and he, said, well we're going to recognize all
- 1:43:58Speaker 5: four of the, belts And i'm.
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: Like, yeah was putting out fires out of, nowhere.
- 1:44:03Speaker 5: What are you talking?
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: About he Knocked canelo on THE wbc belt and then
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: he got a little criticism and he feelings hurt or.
- 1:44:13Speaker 1: Something and then now he's, like, Well i'm still going
- 1:44:15Speaker 1: to be around for a year or two working with those.
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: Guys but then he's saying he's going to put him
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: In alcatras and keep. IT i was, like which one is? It?
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: Dude at least day to. Come he was completely.
- 1:44:25Speaker 5: Disappointed and, then like you, said he's got the, ring
- 1:44:29Speaker 5: which would have gave him an opportunity to properly utilize
- 1:44:32Speaker 5: the ring rankings and, belt it doesn't seem to have
- 1:44:35Speaker 5: any clue about how to do. That and THEN i
- 1:44:39Speaker 5: think they got everybody. Confused like you, know he starts
- 1:44:45Speaker 5: talking about The Dana WHITE tko thing and he's, involved
- 1:44:48Speaker 5: so as fans and commentators on the sport were immediately
- 1:44:53Speaker 5: making the assumption, like, well this is going to Be
- 1:44:56Speaker 5: Turkey alashk using his cash With Dana ye it is
- 1:45:00Speaker 5: like the front man and buying everybody. Up but, instead
- 1:45:04Speaker 5: like we're getting some indications from Like white that they
- 1:45:11Speaker 5: might be like kind of starting from scratch and believe
- 1:45:13Speaker 5: it or, not if somebody was willing to stay with.
- 1:45:16Speaker 5: THAT i always thought that was another long term way
- 1:45:20Speaker 5: to reform the. Sport like, SURE i got a Feeling
- 1:45:23Speaker 5: white maybe thinking about, that but but that's a totally
- 1:45:26Speaker 5: different ballgame for. Me that's gonna take years and. Years
- 1:45:29Speaker 5: and WHAT i think it would be like, this like
- 1:45:31Speaker 5: when he's talking about like a.
- 1:45:33Speaker 1: Development the, best they're gonna fight the, best but they're
- 1:45:35Speaker 1: gonna be in my, rink so your best are gonna
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: fight your.
- 1:45:39Speaker 5: Best like what Like i'm starting to get, well this
- 1:45:42Speaker 5: would be to ME i always saw and some people
- 1:45:44Speaker 5: were saying like a ring city or. SOMETHING i, Thought,
- 1:45:46Speaker 5: NO i don't think. THAT i think one thing they
- 1:45:49Speaker 5: might have in, mind but this is really long term.
- 1:45:52Speaker 5: PROJECT i think those might even be those numbers you're talking,
- 1:45:55Speaker 5: About LIKE i always thought there was an opening to
- 1:45:57Speaker 5: do this if somebody was really, patient like AND i
- 1:46:00Speaker 5: think this might be kind of whites talking, about like you,
- 1:46:03Speaker 5: know like let's TAKE mma you get you, know of
- 1:46:06Speaker 5: course some of these guys have had a FEW mma,
- 1:46:08Speaker 5: fights but in terms of their main fighting experience where
- 1:46:11Speaker 5: you're getting them, from like The americans, here these are
- 1:46:14Speaker 5: guys who Are division one wrestlers and things like. That,
- 1:46:16Speaker 5: okay so the point is, like then they learn THE,
- 1:46:20Speaker 5: mma then they're not taking the head shots when they're
- 1:46:22Speaker 5: in college wrestling or high. School so you're preserving yourself
- 1:46:26Speaker 5: in that.
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: Way an the other stuff, too you, know jiu jitsu
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: and all. That you're not taking. Money you may take
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: kicks to the leg.
- 1:46:33Speaker 5: Or, whatever but you, know then they learn it and
- 1:46:36Speaker 5: then they're they're fighting each, other you, know working their way.
- 1:46:39Speaker 5: Up you, know if they're good, enough they get to THE.
- 1:46:40Speaker 5: Ufc but LIKE i did think in, boxing there would
- 1:46:44Speaker 5: be like if you're patient, enough like here's WHAT i
- 1:46:46Speaker 5: have in, Mind like like let's just pretend they had
- 1:46:48Speaker 5: to deal with THE, espn, Right and this seems real.
- 1:46:52Speaker 5: UNCONVENTIONAL i, mean you have to be patient with, it
- 1:46:54Speaker 5: BUT i think it could work like Maybe i'm going
- 1:46:57Speaker 5: to make up something because these guys haven't been that.
- 1:46:59Speaker 5: Good but let's say we.
- 1:47:00Speaker 1: Got to twenty. Thirty you, know the big things are gonna,
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: happen so you do got some.
- 1:47:05Speaker 5: Time so even though not that these guys have been good,
- 1:47:07Speaker 5: fighting you, know all the boxers we've, had but let's
- 1:47:10Speaker 5: say they're gonna be patient with. It so let's Say
- 1:47:14Speaker 5: white takes a couple of Former division one football players
- 1:47:17Speaker 5: or something like, that and they go to the. Gym but,
- 1:47:20Speaker 5: then here's WHAT i always thought where it was almost
- 1:47:23Speaker 5: like a reality, show, right like where you're gonna they're
- 1:47:25Speaker 5: gonna fight each other. TENDER i think ultimately fans only
- 1:47:29Speaker 5: care most of. Them they're not nuanced enough or care,
- 1:47:32Speaker 5: enough like if the fight's, good like if the guys
- 1:47:35Speaker 5: are if the guys oh and, oh and they're fighting
- 1:47:37Speaker 5: each other and it's and it's an entertaining, brawl that's, Even,
- 1:47:40Speaker 5: yeah they're gonna rather watch this than some boring guy
- 1:47:44Speaker 5: in a mismatch in the kind of fights we're used
- 1:47:46Speaker 5: to seeing in regular, boxing so to. Speak like so
- 1:47:50Speaker 5: if they do, that and then you get to know
- 1:47:52Speaker 5: these guys and they're all under that umbrella and then
- 1:47:55Speaker 5: they get to where they've got ten twenty fights but
- 1:47:57Speaker 5: they're always fighting each, other but the fights are. Good,
- 1:48:00Speaker 5: yeah you have to be real patient with. That BUT
- 1:48:03Speaker 5: i actually do think that could.
- 1:48:04Speaker 1: Work but it's kind of like A contender series a little. Bit,
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: yeah their CONTENT ufc, series.
- 1:48:09Speaker 5: But like what you're but like WHAT i think they
- 1:48:11Speaker 5: would be doing that would be better is like what
- 1:48:15Speaker 5: what the contender type series or like what maybe like
- 1:48:17Speaker 5: A Ring city was trying to. Do even though some
- 1:48:19Speaker 5: of those fights were, good you, know if you get
- 1:48:22Speaker 5: the old like we've seen this too much in, boxing
- 1:48:25Speaker 5: where it doesn't, work the fifteen and five guy who's
- 1:48:28Speaker 5: not that great fighting the thirteen and four guy who's
- 1:48:31Speaker 5: not that. GREAT a lot of times those fights are aren't.
- 1:48:34Speaker 1: That, good and like you, know you unless you have
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: like really good match, makers you, know like it like
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: small small room, places those fights would be, good but
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: you gotta be damn good at your job to get
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: that fight to.
- 1:48:47Speaker 6: Back you got to make like if they were, right
- 1:48:49Speaker 6: it's not that they if they really made those matches,
- 1:48:51Speaker 6: good but they. Don't so you're thinking like if like THIS,
- 1:48:54Speaker 6: tko if they would have their own guys and then
- 1:48:57Speaker 6: they would be keeping making the best and money fights they,
- 1:49:01Speaker 6: could and then.
- 1:49:02Speaker 5: The fan gets conditioned to, like, Oh i'm going to
- 1:49:04Speaker 5: put this. On it's going to be entertaining AND i
- 1:49:07Speaker 5: know this. Guy but that's like a long term, project
- 1:49:10Speaker 5: like so are you are you doing that or are
- 1:49:13Speaker 5: you just buying everybody?
- 1:49:14Speaker 1: Up like.
- 1:49:17Speaker 5: Like we're hearing two different, things, like you, know SO
- 1:49:21Speaker 5: i don't.
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: Mind these three deals are going to start running out on,
- 1:49:24Speaker 1: you you, know so like and then you with that
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: same money then you, know.
- 1:49:30Speaker 5: SO i don't know like where they're, going, like and
- 1:49:32Speaker 5: then they're talking about ring, branding so, like is ring
- 1:49:34Speaker 5: branding going to be with like the fighters were used
- 1:49:36Speaker 5: to now and buying these guys all, up or is
- 1:49:40Speaker 5: it going to be with like being patient with THE,
- 1:49:42Speaker 5: tko like developing their own guys over time and just
- 1:49:48Speaker 5: trying to have even matchups and keeping it in. HOUSE
- 1:49:51Speaker 5: i think it could be done if you're patient, enough
- 1:49:53Speaker 5: and it might be something that would help the. Sport
- 1:49:55Speaker 5: but that's a long term project to.
- 1:49:58Speaker 1: Me.
- 1:49:59Speaker 5: Yeah the other project would be Just turkey throwing his money,
- 1:50:01Speaker 5: around you, know buying scoop it all. Up, yes just
- 1:50:05Speaker 5: buy scoop it all up buying. Everybody it almost looks
- 1:50:08Speaker 5: like in the courtrooms, later right, right, yeah, Exactly and
- 1:50:12Speaker 5: he's got advantage with, that you, Know Saudi, arabia they
- 1:50:14Speaker 5: don't have to file file you, know following A us
- 1:50:17Speaker 5: federal law or anything like. That And i'm not saying
- 1:50:19Speaker 5: that's all, good but you, know they can get around
- 1:50:22Speaker 5: that that.
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: Way so, YEAH i don't.
- 1:50:24Speaker 5: KNOW i don't know if he's going to do that.
- 1:50:25Speaker 5: NOW i don't know exactly what the overall plan is.
- 1:50:30Speaker 1: Now so these are the numbers on that boxing scene.
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: Report and to your, point we've talked about it. Too
- 1:50:36Speaker 1: how the low the lower, level which there's a thousands
- 1:50:40Speaker 1: of those fighters aren't making good money at, all and
- 1:50:45Speaker 1: that is the. Difference you can definitely point TO ufc
- 1:50:50Speaker 1: overall and they short change their. Fighters but as far
- 1:50:52Speaker 1: as the, base you, know it is. Legit so this
- 1:50:56Speaker 1: is for for twenty thousand dollars for a ten round unranked,
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: fighter fifty thousand wins ranked by the, company which you,
- 1:51:08Speaker 1: know but that's five through ten when ranked three and,
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: four one hundred and twenty five, thousand when challenging for
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: the company, championship three hundred and seventy five thousand and
- 1:51:22Speaker 1: when you have the belt and you defend, it it's
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars now just off the.
- 1:51:29Speaker 1: Rip they could get guys that are champions right now
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: for sure and get in there as long as they're
- 1:51:37Speaker 1: going to be ranked high, enough you. Know but so
- 1:51:39Speaker 1: they definitely, could and there'll be people that go into this,
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: thing but it is it is the approach on, that
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: and you, know could they kind of fine tune this
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: as a, development you, know League and at the same,
- 1:51:53Speaker 1: time LIKE i was, saying buy up a bunch of,
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: stuff so you kind of, overpay over, pay over paying through.
- 1:51:58Speaker 1: Time you've even seen this with certain. Fighters after the
- 1:52:03Speaker 1: time buys went away FOR, pbc they did start to
- 1:52:06Speaker 1: skit have different scales, again you, know because they didn't
- 1:52:10Speaker 1: have as much money to throw. Around SO i don't
- 1:52:15Speaker 1: know if that's the plan and then they joint together
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: in two three, YEARS i don't know It just he's
- 1:52:22Speaker 1: gonna sell, it you, know he, says you, know maybe
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: they'll get that that top ranked, deal because that's what
- 1:52:28Speaker 1: a lot of people are. Saying but, yeah like, okay
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: you get the, deal, well you you, know what are
- 1:52:34Speaker 1: you gonna do with, it, Right That's that's What i'm.
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: Wondering and if he thinks that it's just him and
- 1:52:40Speaker 1: he's gonna do some interviews and people are gonna watch,
- 1:52:42Speaker 1: it he will Have there'll definitely be A ufc crowd
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: that will support it at the. START i do believe.
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: That but you just, wonder and then it goes back
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: to who's doing the freaking rankings? Then and is a
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: GUY i know gonna be ranked seven that can for
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: sure beat the number one guy because he's more? Skillful
- 1:53:07Speaker 1: is that gonna Be is he gonna be stymied from
- 1:53:10Speaker 1: five to ten for two? Years you know WHAT i?
- 1:53:11Speaker 1: Mean that's the only thing that you. Know there's a
- 1:53:15Speaker 1: lot of questions still and it you, know it seems
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: like you, said it's more confusing than. Anything, yeah and confusing.
- 1:53:23Speaker 5: Enough box's confusing as it, is, though you, know BUT
- 1:53:27Speaker 5: i kind of THOUGHT i kind of THOUGHT i knew
- 1:53:29Speaker 5: what he was gonna, do that he was going to
- 1:53:31Speaker 5: just try to buy everybody up and then have to
- 1:53:33Speaker 5: in a white run. It but Now I'm i'm, like,
- 1:53:35Speaker 5: no it looks LIKE i always thought there might be
- 1:53:37Speaker 5: an opening for a developmental type, thing but and that
- 1:53:40Speaker 5: seems to be What white's talking. About but that that
- 1:53:43Speaker 5: takes you be the lead.
- 1:53:45Speaker 1: Promoter FOR pbc, then, Right it just they got still
- 1:53:49Speaker 1: a lot of, Talent go get AN espn deal and
- 1:53:52Speaker 1: already have some. Guys then you do your Dem there's something.
- 1:53:55Speaker 5: Right it's JUST i don't, know, YEAH i mean the
- 1:53:58Speaker 5: other way would be just buying everybody up and making
- 1:54:01Speaker 5: making them fight each other and making the fights have
- 1:54:03Speaker 5: to be, good and then making a. League, yeah and
- 1:54:06Speaker 5: then you, know it's kind of kind of like a.
- 1:54:07Speaker 5: League BUT i thought that's originally the WAY i thought
- 1:54:10Speaker 5: they'd be doing, it But i'm not sure, Now like you,
- 1:54:12Speaker 5: said must they try to have the two tracks one
- 1:54:15Speaker 5: that while they're doing.
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: This that's the only WAY i could think it make it,
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: work you, know because the other one was that we
- 1:54:22Speaker 1: heard but they Even turkey said and said that was.
- 1:54:24Speaker 1: Bullshit but about the top, fifteen so you have top
- 1:54:28Speaker 1: fifteen in every, division well that kind of screws the
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: next thousand, fighters you, Know but if the next thousand
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: fighters go towards, that and then you, KNOW i don't,
- 1:54:38Speaker 1: know it's kind of kind of. Weird it's it's it's just, boxing.
- 1:54:42Speaker 1: Man this this shit plays out like, This but, YEAH
- 1:54:45Speaker 1: i wish they'd just buy everybody, up to be.
- 1:54:47Speaker 5: Honest with, you that's WHAT i was, Thinking, like that's
- 1:54:49Speaker 5: WHAT i was hopeful for the, money we'd get. Something
- 1:54:51Speaker 5: but if he's gonna because we've seen this not, work
- 1:54:55Speaker 5: let's face, it and all the promoters are guilty of. This,
- 1:54:57Speaker 5: yeah if you're gonna go to this alphabet syste and
- 1:55:00Speaker 5: the way it's been, going everything just keeps. FADE i,
- 1:55:02Speaker 5: mean you, know it's just gonna keep getting worse and.
- 1:55:04Speaker 5: Worse so it's not gonna. Work you, know something has
- 1:55:09Speaker 5: to be done.
- 1:55:10Speaker 1: Differently and then now it you, know it definitely appears
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: more and more that like the dude's got some seriously
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: like not tough skin at, All like come, on, man
- 1:55:22Speaker 1: like this is, boxing, dude you're gonna get a little
- 1:55:25Speaker 1: crisis or jokes or something like right for him to
- 1:55:29Speaker 1: go in and do his own space to a fifteen
- 1:55:32Speaker 1: minute space because he you, know why even tackle all
- 1:55:36Speaker 1: that ship then if you're just gonna back run right.
- 1:55:39Speaker 1: Back it was just.
- 1:55:40Speaker 5: Weird although that may BE i like that AND i
- 1:55:44Speaker 5: stand by. It that made me lose. INTEREST i mean
- 1:55:47Speaker 5: it was for, me it was that. EXTREME i lost
- 1:55:49Speaker 5: interest in what he was doing. There So I'm i've
- 1:55:53Speaker 5: temporarily lost. Interest i'll come back to it IF i see.
- 1:55:56Speaker 5: Something but if he's just gonna do this four belt
- 1:55:59Speaker 5: arrest and keep going on with all these weight classes
- 1:56:02Speaker 5: and the crummy matchups and, stuff you, Know i'm not.
- 1:56:07Speaker 5: INTERESTED i, Mean i'm not interested in going on like.
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: That, yeah because and you can see the difference in
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: A saudi card, now in a ring, card you, know
- 1:56:18Speaker 1: but if you look At cano's actually that's In. Sadi
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: what AM i? Saying you, know two good, fights but
- 1:56:22Speaker 1: the main events, sucks? Right and then they got prospects
- 1:56:25Speaker 1: on the bottom of, It, Right it's, like, wow where'd we?
- 1:56:28Speaker 1: Go we just had the best pay per view you,
- 1:56:31Speaker 1: know in how many years In february twenty, second, right
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: and now you know we're not In april, yet and
- 1:56:39Speaker 1: it just dropped.
- 1:56:40Speaker 5: Off that's exactly the Way i'm looking at, it. Right
- 1:56:42Speaker 5: i'm just, like you, know, look we've had.
- 1:56:44Speaker 1: This you, KNOW i thought this is run of the
- 1:56:47Speaker 1: mill stuff to keep, saying, RIGHT i, Mean i'll.
- 1:56:49Speaker 5: Stand by, it you, know LIKE i still say it even,
- 1:56:52Speaker 5: Now like WHEN pbc made that run starting in twenty,
- 1:56:55Speaker 5: FIFTEEN i mean that that rekindled my. INTEREST i MEAN
- 1:56:58Speaker 5: i thought they you, know they did the best they
- 1:57:00Speaker 5: could in this this, environment.
- 1:57:02Speaker 1: Right really at least they got ratings for.
- 1:57:05Speaker 5: It, yeah and you know they had their moments and
- 1:57:07Speaker 5: it's ten years, later and they certainly got some guys
- 1:57:09Speaker 5: known compared to the rest of the. Sport BUT i
- 1:57:11Speaker 5: mean that got me back re engaged just seeing somebody try.
- 1:57:15Speaker 5: That So, okay they got.
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: Top rank ON espn as, well because even the person
- 1:57:19Speaker 1: buying it was, like, hey that got my mind, thinking
- 1:57:22Speaker 1: AND i went ahead and got. THAT i think it definitely,
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: right the top rank ON.
- 1:57:26Speaker 5: Espn that wouldn't happened.
- 1:57:27Speaker 1: Otherwise so and then the app came along and they
- 1:57:30Speaker 1: wanted content for, that and we know top rank has
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: that for you, know speaking To George, foreman you.
- 1:57:35Speaker 5: Know so so that was a good, run like from
- 1:57:39Speaker 5: compared to where we were pre twenty, fifteen with the
- 1:57:43Speaker 5: outside of Like, Mayweather paccia and Maybe, canelo the sport
- 1:57:47Speaker 5: was really fading. Bad so you, know there was a
- 1:57:51Speaker 5: bit of a revival in that sense for the reason they're,
- 1:57:53Speaker 5: saying but like now that has faded to, Me, like you,
- 1:57:56Speaker 5: know top ranks going off PBC's having some struggle to,
- 1:58:00Speaker 5: me you, know his own stuff doesn't have anything basically
- 1:58:05Speaker 5: to do with us sensibilities the WAY i see.
- 1:58:07Speaker 1: It you, know even though you Have that's what's so
- 1:58:09Speaker 1: Funny Dana white, saying, oh we, gotta we gotta do it,
- 1:58:12Speaker 1: here you, know because everybody's, saying you, know we're gonna
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: grow it around the. World it's, like, okay, man but you,
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: know to ditch your biggest. Markets you, know who would
- 1:58:22Speaker 1: ever do? That you? Know, yeah that's What they still
- 1:58:25Speaker 1: play golf, here, Correct like The masters is here, right
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: still all these you, know.
- 1:58:31Speaker 5: Yeah that's starting to. Happen there's not not not enough
- 1:58:33Speaker 5: being done for us. Sensibilities.
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: Yeah, so and they bought the whole Damn Golf league
- 1:58:39Speaker 1: and uh and they still have their big tournaments here
- 1:58:42Speaker 1: though they didn't move. Them you, know they're not all In,
- 1:58:44Speaker 1: sadi Right so, yeah, YEAH i don't. Know we'll, See
- 1:58:49Speaker 1: we'll see how it. Goes. Man it was kind of
- 1:58:51Speaker 1: a bummer to see him back right. Down if you
- 1:58:55Speaker 1: look at this guy's track, record allegedly or, not you

- 2:01:53Speaker 1: And i'm ALWAYS i was kind of in between on,
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: it like this is probably a little bit better than
- 2:01:59Speaker 1: people are given it, credit but it might be just
- 2:02:02Speaker 1: recent biased from, me you. Know by the, way, Uh Bruce, Carrington, Delante, Jones,
- 2:02:09Speaker 1: vargas some other folks on that on that card as,
- 2:02:13Speaker 1: well of course talking about THE espn one and Then
- 2:02:20Speaker 1: hernandez And. Colaso actually the The Asparza vaya that is
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: actually let me double check on the. Odds that's gotta
- 2:02:29Speaker 1: be just razor. Close. Yeah, oh you know what another
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: fight is The jerusalem And. Geo what is? It it's
- 2:02:43Speaker 1: a shig shig kio or don't let me. CHECK i

- 2:02:57Speaker 1: a very tight. Fight, okay so that where the hell is?
- 2:03:02Speaker 1: It where did it? Go, okay Maybe i'm. Tripping oh,
- 2:03:08Speaker 1: yeah So asparsa is a plus one seventy six on
- 2:03:12Speaker 1: the fan. DUEL i think that By As sparza is
- 2:03:15Speaker 1: gonna be a good. FIGHT i do think Your costa
- 2:03:17Speaker 1: is gonna, win BUT i might Ah Man Melvin. Jerusale,
- 2:03:29Speaker 1: yeah that there's Some there is some fights that the main,
- 2:03:33Speaker 1: event excuse, me main event might go a certain, way

- 2:03:44Speaker 1: Know we'll see on that. One we'll. See but, YEAH
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: i REALLY i don't. Know but we'll See about THIS tko.

- 2:04:06Speaker 1: everybody can still operate their. Business it's not like you're
- 2:04:09Speaker 1: you're putting them out of, business per. Se it's just
- 2:04:13Speaker 1: like a. Merger you. Know, now, obviously you know people
- 2:04:18Speaker 1: go away in, mergers but you, know like many of
- 2:04:23Speaker 1: the people stay at the company and they just are
- 2:04:26Speaker 1: all of a. Sudden it's kind of like you, know
- 2:04:29Speaker 1: back in the day when you just look at your
- 2:04:30Speaker 1: phone and be, like, oh, well looks like that company
- 2:04:33Speaker 1: merged wow or other. Stuff that it just it just
- 2:04:37Speaker 1: happens all of a. Sudden it's called a different THING
- 2:04:39Speaker 1: tcf up In. Minnesota that that's just that merged not
- 2:04:44Speaker 1: too long ago with hunting. It so all of a, Sudden,
- 2:04:47Speaker 1: hey by the, way it's going to be hunting. It but,
- 2:04:50Speaker 1: YEAH i do like you'll cost A vaya to win that,
- 2:04:54Speaker 1: fight but that should be a good. Fight other than,
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: that let me go through some news items and then
- 2:05:03Speaker 1: we'll get out of. Here, OH i did want to you,
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: KNOW i didn't talk about The, HERNANDEZ i didn't talk
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: about the pro box, card SO i WANT i want
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about. That That hernandez and Uh.
- 2:05:16Speaker 1: Lucero that was a good, fight, Man. LUSORRO i think
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: that's what it. WAS i Had hernandez went in the
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: first first, round both of them landed some good shots.
- 2:05:31Speaker 1: Late you, Know lucero was probably more accurate in that,
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: round BUT i kind of, LIKE i Thought hernanez landed
- 2:05:42Speaker 1: the better. Shot it was a little bit more cleaner
- 2:05:44Speaker 1: work From, lucero but but he did score a knockdown
- 2:05:47Speaker 1: a counter right. HAND i think it was a counter,
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: uppercut IF i remember correctly Dropped hernandez and he got
- 2:05:56Speaker 1: a cut on his eye from. That he came back,
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: though winging, hooks getting the better of the. Exchanges that last.
- 2:06:03Speaker 1: Minute he closed, stronger that's for. Sure that. Was that
- 2:06:06Speaker 1: was damn good second. Round tight third, round very tight third.
- 2:06:11Speaker 1: ROUND i gave it To. HERNANDEZ i thought what he
- 2:06:13Speaker 1: did early and late was enough to give it to.
- 2:06:16Speaker 1: Him But lucero, had you, know plenty of success in that.
- 2:06:23Speaker 5: In that.
- 2:06:23Speaker 1: Round THEN i Gave hernandez in a two way. ROUND
- 2:06:26Speaker 1: i thought he just his, pressure just landing overall better Shots.
- 2:06:31Speaker 1: LUCERO i gave the fifth though a left, hand the
- 2:06:36Speaker 1: left hooks in straight right hands that. Round that fifth,
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: realm they, said the punch that was twenty four to twenty,
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: four so hooks to the body and had a nice
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: right upper cut to the head as well From. Hernandez
- 2:06:49Speaker 1: BUT i gave that To lucero and Then hernandez in
- 2:06:54Speaker 1: a two way, round two way at. Times, ANYWAY i
- 2:06:57Speaker 1: just thought the combinations he just out hustled, him out worked.
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: Him in that. One they kept popping that punch stat
- 2:07:05Speaker 1: up and that was thirty to. Sixteen seventh round was very.
- 2:07:08Speaker 1: Close the jab Which hernandez was landed pretty well throughout
- 2:07:12Speaker 1: throughout the. Fight didn't throw it enough. Though neither of
- 2:07:17Speaker 1: him threw a lot of, jabs but the jabs and
- 2:07:19Speaker 1: COMBINATIONS i thought like a late left hook and then
- 2:07:25Speaker 1: two right hands stole around For lucero and the, seventh the,
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: eighth the, eighth and ninth and TENTH i actually gave To.
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: HERNANDEZ i just thought he was laying in flusher in the,
- 2:07:38Speaker 1: eighth but definitely two way outworked him in better shots
- 2:07:42Speaker 1: in the. Ninth and Then i'm telling, you if you
- 2:07:45Speaker 1: haven't watched this pro Box co, feature it was a
- 2:07:48Speaker 1: good ass fight because that tenth round just bombs away
- 2:07:52Speaker 1: early and then late they were bombs away exchanging as.
- 2:07:55Speaker 1: Well it was a, good good scrap, man very good.
- 2:08:00Speaker 1: Fight SO i had it ninety five ninety four with
- 2:08:03Speaker 1: the knockdown two eight to one. Ninety as far as
- 2:08:07Speaker 1: the punch, rate he outworked in the body a little,
- 2:08:12Speaker 1: bit but they neither of them jabbed or went to
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: the body enough twenty one to, nine so it's really
- 2:08:17Speaker 1: not a, big big. Difference and then, Yeah, LESTER i
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: Gave Joshawn. James the first, AROUND i liked what he was.
- 2:08:26Speaker 1: Doing he's busier with his jab he was pressing few
- 2:08:31Speaker 1: counters By martinez that kind of you, know went his
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: way as the fight went, ON i thought the SECOND
- 2:08:41Speaker 1: i gave it To, martiaz but it was. Close the
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: left hooks and right hands midway through By martinez may
- 2:08:50Speaker 1: have snuck it, out But joshawan was. Jabbing he landed
- 2:08:53Speaker 1: left hooks both to the head and body in a
- 2:08:57Speaker 1: late right, hand so that could have win either. Way
- 2:08:59Speaker 1: but the third, round off the ropes pretty late in
- 2:09:02Speaker 1: the round of overhand right and a left hook dropped
- 2:09:06Speaker 1: him And james looked. Hurt he got his, legs looked
- 2:09:12Speaker 1: hurt and probably about give or to. Take forty or
- 2:09:15Speaker 1: fifty seconds into that fourth, round big right hand in
- 2:09:18Speaker 1: an upper cut with a right, hand and it's kind
- 2:09:23Speaker 1: of weird Because joshun is pretty, tall but he it
- 2:09:25Speaker 1: looked like his knee, touched but the ref wasn't doing
- 2:09:29Speaker 1: anything knee or or glove or. Something it looked like
- 2:09:32Speaker 1: it touched and he you, know So martinez, like all,
- 2:09:35Speaker 1: Right i'm just gonna start, going and he landed a
- 2:09:37Speaker 1: left hook knocked him, down legs were, gone SO i
- 2:09:40Speaker 1: was okay with. THAT Tkl Lester martinez moves to NINETEEN
- 2:09:44Speaker 1: oho with sixteen, Knockouts SO i liked WHAT i. Saw
- 2:09:48Speaker 1: that was a good another pro box. Card, man they're
- 2:09:51Speaker 1: they're you, know we've we've given them credit from the.
- 2:09:53Speaker 1: Start definitely good, stuff that's for. SURE a little Boxing
- 2:10:00Speaker 1: twitter slash news and notes and. Stuff saw this on Brunch.
- 2:10:07Speaker 1: Boxing shouts out to Brunch boxing and the whole crew over.
- 2:10:10Speaker 1: There he Updated Jamel herring arrest. Violation he violated protective
- 2:10:18Speaker 1: order and. Probation he was arrested, allegedly you, know violating
- 2:10:25Speaker 1: it In Warrant. County the protective order issue In january
- 2:10:28Speaker 1: Prohibits hearing from having any contact with his, Wife Jen,
- 2:10:32Speaker 1: herring so he's currently being Held Warren so this was
- 2:10:39Speaker 1: his next schedule court date Was march, twentieth so this
- 2:10:43Speaker 1: is a little while, ago and he did that day
- 2:10:46Speaker 1: are around that he. Tweeted someone is definitely playing games
- 2:10:50Speaker 1: at this. Point some people want some people want, closure
- 2:10:55Speaker 1: others want war. ME i just want to move forward
- 2:10:58Speaker 1: in peace because fighting won't changed the past and bitterness
- 2:11:02Speaker 1: won't build the. Future So i'm just saying what he,
- 2:11:05Speaker 1: did BUT i don't know exactly how that went down
- 2:11:10Speaker 1: though he violated. SOMETHING i don't know IF i don't
- 2:11:14Speaker 1: know the, details but clearly he, definitely you, know violated.
- 2:11:21Speaker 1: It so did want to mention, that you, know This Timothy,
- 2:11:27Speaker 1: Bradley i'm very hit or miss when it comes to
- 2:11:32Speaker 1: him as a, broadcaster But i've always loved him as a,
- 2:11:36Speaker 1: fighter and many people kind of, have they kind of
- 2:11:41Speaker 1: rewrite their history on him once he Beat, marquez like
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: later in his, career but before he used to get
- 2:11:49Speaker 1: dogged hard because he was swinging for the. Fences he
- 2:11:52Speaker 1: didn't have a lot of, power but he he would
- 2:11:57Speaker 1: just come to you like he was ready to. Brawl
- 2:12:00Speaker 1: and it's just funny because so many people like take
- 2:12:05Speaker 1: a personality or you, know judge somebody off something you disagree.
- 2:12:12Speaker 1: With you, know it could be the like pro, vaccine anti, vaccine,
- 2:12:18Speaker 1: right no matter where you stand with, That i'm not
- 2:12:22Speaker 1: going to like judge you differently as what you're bringing
- 2:12:29Speaker 1: in the, ring you, Know AND i think a lot
- 2:12:31Speaker 1: of people do. That so this this one, dude Unbiased box.
- 2:12:35Speaker 1: Two can anyone explain to me who the fuck let
- 2:12:40Speaker 1: this man in The Boxing hall Of. Fame all, wait
- 2:12:42Speaker 1: talking About, bradley and it's, like come, on, Dude, like,
- 2:12:47Speaker 1: yeah The pacquiao thing helped him. Obviously AND i don't
- 2:12:51Speaker 1: think he won that, fight, right you, know goes down
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: as a. WIN i don't think he. Did but he
- 2:12:58Speaker 1: Beat marquez. Two first of, all he beat other fighters
- 2:13:00Speaker 1: at one and you know somebody's oh had to go
- 2:13:05Speaker 1: With Devin alexander like it. Was he fought solid, dudes
- 2:13:09Speaker 1: and then he went up and fought back, yell and
- 2:13:11Speaker 1: LIKE i, said goes down as a. VICTORY i don't
- 2:13:14Speaker 1: think he beat, him but he you, know that's what it.
- 2:13:15Speaker 1: Says and but The marquez performance provoked the cop that
- 2:13:22Speaker 1: WAS i, mean, dude this dude laid it out on the.
- 2:13:26Speaker 1: Line in, FACT i JUST i didn't watch the, video
- 2:13:29Speaker 1: BUT i saw in the. TITLE i think it was
- 2:13:32Speaker 1: on Fight. Hype he, SAID i should have fought more Like,
- 2:13:35Speaker 1: shakur you, know and by the, way he couldn't, have
- 2:13:38Speaker 1: you know WHAT i. Mean, like that's the one Thing
- 2:13:40Speaker 1: i'll say About shakur or other. People you may not
- 2:13:42Speaker 1: like their, style but you're also not gonna be able
- 2:13:44Speaker 1: to fight like. Them But Jay row, said people only
- 2:13:47Speaker 1: Remember bradley as a. Commentator there's no way you can
- 2:13:51Speaker 1: have this take if you Remember bradley as a fighter
- 2:13:54Speaker 1: exactly like you, Know vic, added they're one they weren't
- 2:14:01Speaker 1: around to See bradley Beat devin and And Kendall. Holt

- 2:18:38Speaker 1: with two hundred. Million it's, like, dude come, on you're
- 2:18:42Speaker 1: but boxing facts and. Opinions, says y'all never pushed this
- 2:18:47Speaker 1: hard for spenc And broner Or Tanker, broner tank And.
- 2:18:54Speaker 1: Broner first of, All Spencer broner was never a, thing,
- 2:18:58Speaker 1: Dude like that was not thing That it just wasn't a.
- 2:19:02Speaker 1: Thing Spence, Charlow, yeah that that's a little bit. Different.
- 2:19:08Speaker 1: Now spence always Said i'll fight these mother, efforts but
- 2:19:11Speaker 1: they just had the same, trainer but they They spence
- 2:19:14Speaker 1: said he'd do. It so, yeah the whole you, KNOW
- 2:19:21Speaker 1: i don't, know like The Spence browner to go right to,
- 2:19:23Speaker 1: THAT i just you lost me on that because it's,
- 2:19:27Speaker 1: like really dud by the way tank And, roach according
- 2:19:30Speaker 1: To Dan, rafael did did at least two hundred and
- 2:19:33Speaker 1: sixty thousand, buys so the whole thing. GENERATED i, mean
- 2:19:37Speaker 1: if it did two hundred and sixty that's like twenty
- 2:19:40Speaker 1: million right, there if you if you paid eighty bucks
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: because most of it after the tax at eighty, bucks
- 2:19:46Speaker 1: and then the gate was big. Too so and you,
- 2:19:51Speaker 1: know some people were talking, about you know that That
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: february twenty second card was going to do. Better even
- 2:20:00Speaker 1: though it was a great. Card it was LIKE i,
- 2:20:02Speaker 1: said good luck trying to to match that. Card but
- 2:20:07Speaker 1: even if it did one hundred thousand at twenty five,
- 2:20:11Speaker 1: pop it'd be two point five. Mils So i'm not saying.
- 2:20:14Speaker 1: Anything i'm just, saying, like you, know it is what it.
- 2:20:18Speaker 1: Is let's see. Here. Oh benavitez is on The Jake
- 2:20:24Speaker 1: paul podcast and he, said you, know if you if
- 2:20:27Speaker 1: they can't work with, you then they don't then they
- 2:20:31Speaker 1: do everything to close you. Out that's according to The Biffel.
- 2:20:35Speaker 1: Benavidez in THE, Wbo Matt brown had an exclusive interview
- 2:20:44Speaker 1: with THE wbo president and in the presiden SAID i
- 2:20:48Speaker 1: wouldn't object To David benavitez And Kellery. Smith that would
- 2:20:51Speaker 1: be a good fight hopefully that. HAPPENS i wouldn't doubt
- 2:20:54Speaker 1: If yard gets it before, him but that'd be. Great
- 2:20:59Speaker 1: but also stand on this if in, fact like making
- 2:21:03Speaker 1: the trilogy is, fine, Right BUT i do like How
- 2:21:10Speaker 1: samson and him are standing their guns and, saying you
- 2:21:13Speaker 1: guys can make that. Trilogy it just won't be with
- 2:21:16Speaker 1: all the belts and then force the strip because we
- 2:21:21Speaker 1: already know who the lineal is, anyway so that's fine with. Me,
- 2:21:26Speaker 1: Yeah and if he doesn't want to make, it he
- 2:21:28Speaker 1: doesn't want to make it right, now he wants to
- 2:21:30Speaker 1: make the, trilogy that's. Fair it's just the one Thing i'll.
- 2:21:34Speaker 1: Say When samson said this a couple different, times him
- 2:21:40Speaker 1: saying that he won't fight bevol let's say he remains
- 2:21:46Speaker 1: lineal In, SADI i disagree with. That if you have
- 2:21:52Speaker 1: a chance at a lineal title and you're gonna make
- 2:21:55Speaker 1: as much money as you make. Here although you know
- 2:21:59Speaker 1: you could do the paper at this time like they're
- 2:22:03Speaker 1: doing With, canelo BUT i understand it would do bigger.
- 2:22:08Speaker 1: Here obviously at the gate it would do much, bigger
- 2:22:12Speaker 1: and then The pavier he is going to do, bigger
- 2:22:14Speaker 1: but because it would get more attention, here but if
- 2:22:19Speaker 1: it's for, lineal and you know He samson at the
- 2:22:22Speaker 1: same time, says you know they were willing to Fight
- 2:22:25Speaker 1: canelo for five million and it was more about. Legacy,
- 2:22:30Speaker 1: well if you have a chance to fight for, lineal
- 2:22:35Speaker 1: guess what you take that. Chance i'm not saying you
- 2:22:37Speaker 1: gotta sign a five year deal and maybe they make
- 2:22:40Speaker 1: him sign a three year deal or, whatever and you
- 2:22:42Speaker 1: can negotiate and be, LIKE i want my other fights
- 2:22:44Speaker 1: home or. WHAT i don't know if that would, work,
- 2:22:46Speaker 1: RIGHT i don't know, That But i'm just, saying if
- 2:22:49Speaker 1: you have a, chance if you, do let's say next,
- 2:22:52Speaker 1: year that fight's done, now right With bivol And baturviev
- 2:22:55Speaker 1: And bivil came out of, it you GOTTA i would do.
