[Music]
0:09
and I'm recording I mean you've already
0:12
had a cocktail or two maybe so I would I
0:15
would double check as well it's only an
0:18
ounce or
0:20
two I saw Adam make that it was it was a
0:23
stuff one ounce and a half two two and a
0:25
half ounces um yeah what did you think
0:29
of the the Cody deopa fight
0:32
so this is a
0:38
really let me tell you I thought to Cody
0:41
won of course me too um it's it's really
0:45
hard
0:46
because I [ __ ] judges yeah and we're
0:50
a little biased we got to be honest
0:52
we're a little biased I mean speak for
0:55
yourself I am not biased no oh wow it w
1:01
you know I could see I so I'm I'm trying
1:04
to look at their perspective and maybe
1:05
what they were looking for yeah and the
1:07
closest thing I can think is they really
1:10
liked the aggressiveness and the the big
1:14
punches that Demopolis was was throwing
1:17
and you know some of them were Landing
1:18
but a lot of the times dakot was like
1:20
winning the exchanges but her punches
1:23
were on the inside there were like sharp
1:25
shooter sniper punches uh because she's
1:27
so precise and there's not a lot of like
1:29
like big movements from her everything
1:32
there's no wasted moments uh movements
1:34
with doot everything is is very shorten
1:37
to the point and with demopoulos she
1:41
puts on like a show
1:44
it's as she does on the pole she does on
1:47
the
1:47
pole um and I like I'm not being shady
1:51
I'm not trying to be Shady but maybe I
1:53
am being shady naturally
1:57
Shady uh but she she has these big
2:01
movements these big punches so maybe
2:04
that is what stood out more in the
2:06
judge's eyes yeah uh because what I saw
2:10
was dakot making really good reads
2:12
adjustments using footwork um using
2:15
angles and countering MH and I thought
2:20
that she did enough to win the fight
2:22
yeah I I watched it uh back because I
2:25
missed it when it happened live and I
2:27
already knew what happened so I always
2:30
like that gives you a different
2:31
perspective on the fight but I was
2:33
watching trying to see okay what did
2:35
they see in these rounds and honestly I
2:37
could have given doot all three and when
2:40
I looked at the scorecards they were all
2:42
over the place uh one judge had round
2:46
one and three for doot the other judge
2:49
had one and three for demopoulos it's
2:51
like what the [ __ ] like nobody scored
2:54
the rounds the same and then I think the
2:55
last judge had one and two for Demopolis
2:59
and uh
3:00
you know none of the none of the
3:02
scorecards really made sense
3:05
um but I could see how each round could
3:08
look different from a different point of
3:10
view like we're seeing everyone at home
3:12
is seeing one angle uh the judges are on
3:16
three different sides of the cage so
3:17
they're seeing different angles and
3:20
taking in different moments and like you
3:23
said when you have big moments you see
3:26
it from all angles with d cot's inside
3:28
boxing little punch on the inside
3:31
something that snaps uh demopoulos is
3:33
head back might only be seen on one
3:36
judge's side so I feel like it's one of
3:38
those fights where
3:41
Unfortunately they didn't see what was
3:43
actually doing the most damage and I
3:45
felt like it was obvious that Cody was
3:47
doing the most damage she was doing the
3:49
most inside boxing Landing the most
3:52
volume um not volume but landing the
3:55
most effective strikes but there were
3:56
moments where Demopolis had her kind of
3:59
rock
4:00
and had her recovering and she did a
4:03
good job of playing it off but she was
4:04
circling and it looked like she was a
4:06
little wobbly on the feet as she was
4:08
circling I I just really wish that um
4:11
Dakota would mix in her wrestling she
4:14
has such good wrestling she's a strong
4:16
like she I feel like since she's gotten
4:18
to the UFC she hasn't done that kind of
4:21
game plan like I she in previous fights
4:26
like anytime I watched her an Invicta
4:27
she would steal the round with a
4:29
takedown attempt yeah every single time
4:31
and I haven't seen that again and she
4:33
has great wrestling she has great
4:35
grappling I wish that she would mix that
4:37
in a little bit a little bit more yeah
4:40
for sure I mean she did a little bit uh
4:43
but didn't really commit and I feel like
4:46
if she did that especially in the early
4:47
rounds especially when someone's coming
4:49
at you wild and crazy I think that would
4:52
really change the Optics of the fight in
4:55
the judge's eyes um but it's hard
4:58
because a lot of times you'll be
4:59
fighting someone and you're in there in
5:01
your own skin and you feel how hard it
5:03
feels when you land a punch on them you
5:06
feel how hard it feels when they land a
5:07
punch on you and you're like oh I'm
5:09
winning this it's obvious that I'm
5:11
winning this because she threw a big
5:13
punch and I leaned out of the way and I
5:15
threw a tight punch and it nailed her
5:16
right into the kisser and a lot of times
5:20
it doesn't look like that on tape yeah
5:22
so I'm I feel really frustrated for it
5:25
because I've been in that position many
5:27
times multiple times at least
5:31
six and I and I feel for it but um you
5:35
know it it's something that Demopolis
5:38
does well she she is able to act like
5:42
she's winning fights that the the
5:46
majority of fans don't see her winning
5:49
yeah it's really odd how um she fought
5:52
the the Japanese wrestler yeah
5:56
and somehow somehow got the decision win
5:59
on that yeah um there's it's something
6:03
about
6:04
the I don't know just the the bigger
6:07
movements the aggression the aggression
6:10
like some something that the judges are
6:12
are seeing that is is resonating with
6:16
them the the good thing that I'll say
6:19
about like these these decision losses
6:22
for dakot I think that there's
6:24
consistent feedback for her like hey
6:27
this is a glaringly obvious thing that
6:29
needs to be corrected and then you can
6:32
take all that information and you can
6:34
build off of it because she's a really
6:35
solid fighter she's
6:37
well-rounded she hits hard um she's
6:42
she's a hard worker so I think that
6:44
taking all of that feedback from the
6:46
fight that she's lost a close decision
6:48
on I think that she can really you know
6:51
reinvent herself with it yeah because
6:53
she it's obvious what she needs to work
6:55
on there needs to be maybe bigger
6:57
moments there needs to be more pressure
6:58
there needs to be mixing up of of the
7:00
takedowns and the grappling yeah maybe a
7:02
little more volume too because that's
7:04
something that people look at um I
7:06
remember even when she fought Yoder uh
7:08
Yoder was winning on the volume side but
7:11
doot was Landing the more powerful shots
7:14
and luckily um for doot you could see
7:16
the damage on their face um and that was
7:19
really making a difference on the
7:21
scorecards where if there was no damage
7:24
they could have easily scored it for
7:26
Yoda just because of the amount of
7:27
volume that was happening and I think
7:29
with uh demopoulos it was similar where
7:33
she was Landing or throwing more volume
7:36
um what looked like was Landing wasn't
7:39
quite connecting but because it was such
7:41
a big thing like you said a big movement
7:45
um it really stuck out in the judge's
7:47
minds and that's why they're scoring it
7:49
for her and that on top of the little
7:51
moments where she had the D Cody wobbled
7:55
I think the combination made it uh I
7:58
guess hard to score because the judges
8:02
scorecards were a perfect example of
8:04
that everyone scored it differently I
8:07
think usually when you have a split
8:08
decision it's like it's it's down to one
8:10
round that everyone's like oh this round
8:13
was really close so whoever won round
8:15
three wins the fight and then the judges
8:18
are split on it but the judges were
8:20
split on every [ __ ] round like it's
8:23
crazy it's it's really hard to to look
8:26
at that and have faith in judging no
8:30
it's already challenging enough yeah
8:31
like what the [ __ ] what are you looking
8:33
at were you looking at your phones yeah
8:35
cuz I don't think you were looking at
8:36
the cage maybe there H I don't know just
8:38
like threw up a
8:40
coin at the same time the media all
8:43
scored it for doot almost across the
8:47
board there was maybe uh 10 10 media
8:50
scores on the mmaad decisions.com that I
8:53
always go to when there's a split
8:54
decision and the 10 media out of the 10
8:56
media scores two scored for Demopolis
8:58
and other eight scored for uh D cot um
9:02
so again maybe it's the angle because
9:05
all the media sits on one side of the
9:06
cage y you know maybe it's that but
9:09
everyone at home saw it or I think about
9:13
60 or 70% of people at home saw it for
9:17
doot um so it was a close fight and I
9:20
just felt horrible because I know how
9:22
good she is after fighting her after
9:24
training with her like I know how good
9:26
she is and I feel like uh you know that
9:30
score doesn't give value the performance
9:33
that she put out sure yeah I agree
9:36
you'll get him next time MH I'm going
9:38
back out and train yeah and then
9:40
meanwhile there's a lot to take from the
9:41
way the mopus fights like she comes
9:43
forward and she throws with intention
9:46
she throws with Vigor she shows it in
9:48
her face no she just gets after it like
9:52
not pretty like I could take some of
9:53
that into my fighting you know just uh
9:56
being calm and collected and Landing
9:59
Jabs doesn't always make an impact or
10:02
imprint on the judge's eyes but when you
10:05
go you come forward and you jump on them
10:09
that's the thing that people remember it
10:11
is and I think that there is something
10:13
to that yeah
10:14
definitely the performance next make the
10:17
ugly face yeah that I always tell people
10:19
that you gotta you got to make it look
10:21
like you're winning you can't just win
10:22
you got to make it look like you're
10:23
winning too it's like uh heus too heus
10:26
does that really really well she acts
10:30
like she won yes after every single
10:33
round and the determination on her face
10:37
she does it so well I swear to God the
10:39
hands up with the butt cheek don't
10:41
forget the butt cheek that's that is
10:45
key check it
10:50
out I did
10:52
that oh man um yeah so uh the big pory
10:58

14:40
because they deserve to be shot
14:42

14:44
early internet so I'm not sure if
14:46
anything happened it wasn't like the cat
14:48
thing yeah the what was it like don't
14:51
hit a cat on the Internet or something
14:54
uh you know what I'm talking about right
14:55
the Netflix uh Series yeah it wasn't
14:57
like that I could watch watch that one
14:59
but I know what you're talking about I
15:00
couldn't do that one [ __ ] me up yeah I
15:02
can't I can't with that um well I hope
15:05
the internet does what it does and we
15:07
find out who they are they're probably
15:09
old than Diapers at this point if
15:11
they're still alive not that [ __ ] old
15:14
to get what's coming to them Shake Your
15:17
Bear get a bear to shake you I
15:20
know oh my God I'm really upset I'm
15:23
sorry I don't even know what to say I
15:25
don't have anything funny or or any
15:26
remark I'm just very disturbed a
15:29
[Music]
15:32
maybe if I had a cocktail I'd be able to
15:33
respond better I know I'm like so man or
15:36
bear was
15:38
see still both both
15:43
okay do with it what you will I love it
15:47
man all
15:49
right so
15:52
fory fting who you got
15:55
makev um man I'm going to pick pory
15:59
because I'm just such a fan of his of
16:02
his hot sauce his hot sauce and his hot
16:05
hands he got them hot hands to fast um
16:10
and I still go back to Islam's fight
16:13
with banovski all holes in his game and
16:16
I don't think that you
16:17
can um sh up those Holes without getting
16:22
the fight experience and he hasn't been
16:24
active so I feel like this is a great
16:28
time for Dustin to go in there because
16:30
he's GNA have that confidence from
16:31
watching that fight from seeing
16:33
something that we hadn't seen from makev
16:35
in any of his other fights see he looked
16:37
like an unbeatable um
16:40
uh Atlas whatever you call it like
16:44
ailles before he saw the hill what is it
16:48
you know what I'm talking about right
16:50
you know he was dipped in the thing and
16:52
everyone's like you can't beat him and
16:53
then they're like oh look at his Hill
16:55
that's a little [ __ ] look at his [ __ ]
16:57
in his arm so I feel like we exposed
16:59
that little Achilles Hill of Islam makev
17:02
and the fact that hey if you come at him
17:04
and you don't give a [ __ ] then you can
17:07
wrestle him you can fight him you can
17:09
land on him and uh you know we're
17:12
looking at the first fight not the
17:14
second one obviously but I think that
17:16
there's a lot to be gained from that for
17:18
porier so so I I this is going to be an
17:21
interesting fight um it'll be proven
17:24
ground for Islam who hasn't really
17:26
fought someone his size since the vulk
17:29
fights and uh maybe we can get that
17:32
lightweight um you know uh uh weight
17:36
class back in the right path stop all
17:39
the champ champ fights and just get the
17:41
lightweights fighting each other yeah
17:43
that would be really nice that would be
17:45
fun right that'd be really fun yeah I
17:47
mean I'm living a pipe dream
17:49
but it could be
17:53
cute yeah to have a legitimized uh
17:55
championship fight that would be
17:57
great I mean that's that's what we're
17:59
all here for right yes no we're here for
18:01
chel sonen and Anderson Silva having a
18:03
boxing match in Brazil that's what the
18:05
world has come to now God is that
18:06
happening just like yeah I thought
18:08
Anderson Silva was fighting Terry
18:11
Cruz this is what they're talking about
18:13
this is what I woke up to what the [ __ ]
18:16
yes just like uh you know Mike Tyson and
18:18
Jake Paul fighting each other this is
18:20
what the world is now I want it I know
18:23
but this is what you get did you see
18:24
Mike Tyson's video I think he sent it to
18:27
me I did send it to you
18:29
he was like I don't know I was watching
18:31
you fight I was watching you uh dance
18:35
when you were 16 and for some reason I
18:37
had an erection dude that man is a
18:40
maniac I love it he is unhinged I love
18:44
it it's like only Mike Tyson and he is
18:46
uncan like any anyone else says that
18:49
stuff they are cancelled done done done
18:52
but he's already he's already done the
18:54
time bitten an ear off he's already he's
18:57
already done jail jail time for domestic
19:00
abuse yeah you can't stop that man yeah
19:02
he's he's he's he's good he's has a
19:04
clean
19:07
slate let this be a lesson all you have
19:09
to do is do some psychedelics document
19:12
it is that what happened yeah I mean he
19:16
went on a really cool path of like
