we are back with another episode of two straws
0:12
how you doing I'm okay yeah yeah you make it at your Camp okay I'm hanging in there you know
0:19
um there's something about like a specialist camp that makes everything very simple but also very annoying you
0:28
know like a repetition oh my God it's like you know she does this really well so we gotta train it
0:34
it just hits them like I just want to hit something like okay she she comes in
0:40
like this so you got to do this so like [ __ ] I just want to just not think about this person right now yes but
0:47
I'm getting over the hump it's like if if most camps you want to do like eight
0:53
weeks I'm right at the four week Mark so I'm right at the top of that hill and
0:58
I'm ready to just go running down it sprinting down it um I did pass it in I felt pretty happy
1:05
with it so the motivation is back the hump was hard to get over but the humps the humps can
1:12
be hard can [ __ ] you up a little bit why do you think I love doing short notice
1:17
there's no hump in a short notice fight that just opens up room for like way more anxiety though there's just there's
1:23
a lot like [ __ ] am I in shape but I always I always have that conversation in my head all the time I'm like oh my God I I'm out of shape I'm out of shape
1:30
I I didn't train it hard enough but yeah that's what like that's very intensified and short notice fight so I mean I
1:37
commend you well from a hip you know like I'm more of a I'm more of a
1:43
spontaneous feel-good fighter than a plan for this person for a long time feel good fighter like I I feel like I
1:51
do better in fight camps but it's just the mood swings in the up and down and
1:57
just the the planning your whole two months around this person that pisses me
2:02
off you know what I mean yeah like it makes me hate them I don't like them
2:10
they're like I thought you were cool but no you suck you suck I missed out on so many fun times because you decided to
2:17
sign a contract against me it's just freaking rude but I've gotta say I've gotta say like I
2:23
mean I've seen your sparring sessions and you've looked really impressive but
2:28
the Pace that you had last week I was like [ __ ] this [ __ ] is like they got out of going for one
2:35
round but that makes you feel better no no
2:41
your pace is insane thank you yeah it's very impressive no it's it's cool because uh I think the last fight Camp I
2:48
actually got to enjoy having a fight Camp um I I found out about the Cody maybe I
2:55
think like 12 weeks before we actually fought so it was a lot of time to just get in shape and and enjoy getting in
3:02
shape and I have a little more and we both do we have a little more control over how we get in shape right now
3:08
because uh we're not really with like a big gym we're just kind of kind of doing
3:13
it more like a boxer camp like you you have your coach for this this and this you show up you work out and I think
3:19
that's actually worked out really well for me um the last few fight camps that I've
3:24
had a long time to focus on someone so I'm embracing it I'm embracing fight Camp life I know at this point it's
3:32
harder for me to get shirt not his face so yeah I mean you kind of you kind of cleaned house with those yeah and we're
3:39
just kind of past the the I mean the the covid stuff so it's just not going to be
3:44
as prevalent as it was once but you know it is what it is dude you
3:51
realize that we had six straw weight fights in the last two weeks so I was I
3:57
was recapping some of you know the fights because I knew that we were going to talk about I was like oh my God there
4:03
is like a lot there's a lot to cover and not one of those [ __ ] pulled out that's usually my go-to if I see that I
4:10
have my list you know upcoming showing fights and I'll see a
4:16
week where there's like five six fights strawweight fights I'm like all right
4:21
I'm gonna peek at this week you know just in case just in case I'm gonna hit
4:26
my Sprints for a couple weeks just in case someone pulls out I'm not gonna make it happen
4:31
but it might happen there's a good chance but all of those girls made it to the fight so I think I think the
4:37
strawberries are getting to act together it might not be much room for me sliding in there and still in someone else's Mill anymore well I mean and now we have
4:45
you know people from 125 cutting some extra weight yeah Jillian Roberts did
4:50
yeah Robertson Roberts and you know Robertson Robertson yeah and I wasn't
4:55
surprised that she could make it but I was impressed with how smoothly she made it because she was not cutting weight it
5:03
looked like it looked like she was showing up uh at her walk around late when she fought at 125 so sometimes
5:10
people like that they don't really want to embrace the grind of cutting but she did it smoothly she looked healthy she
5:16
didn't look drawn out she looked less drawn out than I do when I weigh and I feel like my weight cuts are pretty easy
5:21
too comparatively so uh so yeah I was impressed for me when I would go when I
5:27
would cut down to 105 I would do so much road work I would do so much dieting so
5:32
that that would happen because I had so much stress about recently I'm like I do not want to like
5:38
deal with that that water weight especially at that low of a body weight yeah so I made sure that I was I was so
5:45
disciplined now I'm like a little bit too LAX at 115 because I'm like it's I have like a lot of milk in my coffee
5:52
yeah I have that extra lump of sugar it's fine it's fine it's cool
5:59
I could have a sip of water well I'll cut it it's fine I don't have
6:04
that much to go and then you're like [ __ ] why do I have that sip of water
6:09
it was so stupid I can't believe I did this to myself yeah I knew that I was gonna put myself in the situation but I
6:15
wanted Comfort over suffrage over the long you know long term there
6:21
is such a huge I I get mad when I see guys cut weight and or switch weight
6:26
classes and I get mad when I see someone like I don't know who who's switch classes
6:33
recently Burns Gilbert Burns well he he got I mean when they go down one so like
6:39
uh Jose Otto okay he he always looked kind of like he has really hard nasty
6:46
weight Cuts but he looks kind of the same when he makes weight at 145 as he
6:51
did when he made weight at uh 135. so I get a little mad because when I weighed
6:59
in at 106 I did it like twice I look like I came out of A POW Camp like I looked
7:08
my eyes were so big you know my little head you almost look like you you go
7:15
back in time like you get younger because your eyes are bigger you can see more of your skull it's it's a really
7:21
you have like this little lollipop head on this little stick body I'm like oh it's like I never hit puberty you know
7:29
and the guys they look the same because there's more weight to go around but when 10 115ers cut to 105 it's a
7:38
nasty difference it's a big difference it looks crazy
7:43
it gave me such a complex because there were actually people because I would diet down so much yeah just because it's
7:51
a little bit harder to lose water weight when you're already so small so you just want to make sure that that is not such
7:56
a big issue and so I would die it down and I'd be so lean and I remember
8:01
somebody was was commenting on you know primarily Facebook back then but they
8:06
would say oh my God you look so good uh uh you look like a mother I've done that
8:12
to you it's like you just look it's model Jess because you have no ass that's the only reason
8:19
suddenly your ass is gone and I'm like oh you're like a model you're like a starving little model
8:25
that's why they look so uh uh cheekbony because they have no meat
8:31
in their face it's only chickens models are at 90 cheekbones they are
8:40
they really are Imagine shooting on one of them and they hipping oh that'll cut
8:45
yeah that'll cut laceration you'll need stitches yeah definitely definitely
8:51
um should we talk about shall we fight so should we talk about like I mean there's so I mean there's so many fights
8:57
to cover there really are there's some there were two really big cards well I
9:02
mean pajera and arasania are the big big big big big one but we did have you know
9:09
we did have a pretty solid Main Event last weekend with Halloween and Arnold
9:14
Allen Arnold Allen yes yeah I remember his name because the soul boring it's
9:20
like the most boring name it all right I mean I have a boring name Angela Hill you would not expect the magnificence
9:27
before you just read on paper oh this girl named Angel Hill's fighting but Arnold Allen
9:33
Allen has that same kind of like boriness to his name I think of like white bread
9:39
yeah when I hear his name and when you see him dude yeah PBJ on White Bread yes that's him
9:46
oh man maybe a bologna sandwich on White Bread oh Bologna's too spicy
9:54
these bangers and mesh but uh UFC Twitter posted like this
10:02
quick video of him dancing in the octagon and it was the most white bread
10:08
thing I've ever seen do you want to get up and demonstrate oh man it was uh it was like
10:14
it was like this weird like what what was he trying to do
10:20
is a happy dance he was happy about it being fight week so he's doing his little
10:26
little happy dance little happy dance shuffle it was adorable but it was also very white very white very vanilla white
10:34
in his face right Angela not everybody can be as you know spicy and and flavory
10:41
come on Jess we've seen you twerk in the hot tub
10:48
you need to spread your uh uh cultural awareness I don't know
10:55
see me white girl wasted doing the white girl dance oh yeah which is more upper body than anything man my mom invented
11:02
that dance [Laughter]
11:07
um yes dancing brings everyone together but Arnold Allen he is so like quirky and adorable with his just like
11:14
plainness it's really funny because he's a [ __ ] beast when he fights like that
11:20
that last round um I guess we might as well just talk about it yeah that lasts around
11:26
um they had like the little Coaches Corner you almost thought you were gonna have a leon Edwards moment because the
11:31
coaches are like all right you need to finish them you need to finish that's on everything you got to throw everything
11:37
at him and he's like yep yep everything okay yep and he was just very in the moment very lucid just aware of what he
11:44
needed to do and when he came out he brought it to Max like there were a lot of moments where I was like oh [ __ ] no
11:51
no oh [ __ ] it's gonna happen you know and then Max was able to sell on him a little bit land some land some counters
11:57
of his own and get out of danger but it was a really gutsy performance especially that last round
12:04
I thought that it was you know I mean you're going up against one of the best that yeah that the
12:10
featherweight division has ever seen yeah so for him to step up and I felt like it was a big step up from where he
12:16
was not saying that he hasn't earned that position but it was a big it was a big step it would have had a little more
12:23
confidence if his last fight didn't end in a weird way yeah yeah it was it
12:28
Calvin Qatar yeah yeah that was just that was it's just a terrible look yeah I he was giving Qatar
12:37
issues in the fir like before the knee injury he was trying to give him issues so I was like okay but it's a five
12:42
rounder and Gators he's a vet you know and he's a notorious like late starter
12:49
yes he likes to look so we're like okay I'm gonna Land That Elbow when he does that next time you know yeah he's like
12:56
uh he needs a little bit of time to open up and you know figure out the Rhythm and distance and all that kind of stuff
13:02
so it was it was really unfortunate that it ended the way it did yeah and so we didn't get to see
13:07
you know exactly who who Alan was you know on a main event but we sure as hell
13:13
got to see it and it was really impressive I I mean I didn't think he was winning the fight but he definitely
13:19
brought everything he possibly could to Max Holloway and that was really impressive yeah I think he like I might
13:27
have given him around I don't remember uh at this point but it's been a whole
13:33
two days so don't know what happened but uh I remember thinking okay Max has this in a
13:40
bag even if he loses this round he has this in a bag um but he came after him and that last
13:45
10 seconds was so it was such a Max Holloway fight like classic Max Halloween fight he got in trouble a
13:52
little bit but then he counters hard wobbles Arnold down like crazy and then
13:57
just called yeah boy that's what I [ __ ] talk about I love it yeah
14:04
he's he's so amped when he fights I I really love watching him fight just because of that he's just like so happy
14:10
to be in there it seems and like he's a good sport like I haven't seen like
14:16
there was one time when he was fighting uh cater that I was like oh don't be a dick Max oh but it was about who's the
14:23
best who's the best boxer you know oh yeah I like that though see I'm
14:28
you know I it looks cool when it works I know I think I think Max does it the
14:35
best yeah because he's he's got a great personality he's a nice guy he's very
14:40
like you know fun charismatic so I don't I don't mind when he gets a little you know showy because I don't find it
14:48
disrespectful but there are others that I I'm like you guys just really like being jerks yeah no it wasn't the the
14:55
reason I thought it was cool is because it wasn't like he was staling against uh a
15:03
Grappler or someone who notoriously didn't have hands yeah you know what I mean like he was styling against someone
15:08
who is just as dangerous as him on the feet and he's like slipping and looking
15:13
the other way and going on the best boxer in the world and Landing punches I was it was insane yeah it was really
15:20
insane so I thought it was impressive enough to let it slide that he was kind
15:25
of being a dick it was impressive we forgave him we forgave him I I didn't forgive Cody no
15:33
love for dancing against them because the dances weren't cool enough
15:40
were they too white for you yeah I think you went like you're just a
15:46
robot he did yeah it was like the 80s
15:51
it was okay it was impressive but I also like come on bro
15:58
that's my friend I like you stop being mean stop being mean to him
16:05
he doesn't dance it's not you uh but yeah it was a huge step up going
16:10
all the way back to what you're saying it was a huge step up and opponent and I thought he did good I don't think he
16:17
lost any stock from that he lost a little bit moment of momentum just because obviously a win means title shot
16:23
next but I think because he's such a new face and he's such a
16:30
a go-getter it's it's only going to motivate him to go further and and a lot of lessons that he didn't get to learn
16:36
in the Qatar fight he got to learn in this one so he's gonna be a beast the next time he comes out yeah I mean he's
16:43
definitely one of those one of those guys to look to what or sorry to watch out for
16:48
uh so yeah I can't wait to see what he does um if we are going to mention you know
16:54
all the stuff about about cater we have to mention his boy Rob font because they are they are such the most adorable
17:01
Bromance I've ever seen in MMA I have such like a little crush on their Bromance it's so adorable they're so
17:07
cute together they uh Rob freaking beasted it yes he was incredible I think
17:16
I I just I really do think that he has some of the best boxing and yes there are great boxers in that division yeah
17:23
he's definitely you know top two top three yeah for sure I I love the way
17:29
he puts his boxing together and he was just he was so impressive yeah he was good and a lot of people I think he was
17:35
a four to one Underdog that night because um I mean I think he had a couple losses
17:42
he was coming off a loss against uh Vera against Aldo so people were thinking oh
17:49
yeah and including me people were thinking oh Adrian honest he is a power puncher he's able to get in and not only
17:56
throw a power but volume he's going to be able to get in and land on this guy and Giannis he has just been
18:03
skyrocketing up in the rankings and people's just uh
18:08
people's street cred meter or whatever you call it like people are people know Adriana's name
18:15
um and then Rob was just able to be a little craftier in there just able to be
18:20
able to find his Mark and I think there was some more motivation there too like he has a new kid and baby
18:27
girl I think a very cute running out of House close that door
18:34
letting all the air out uh he has a baby yeah that's why the
18:42
mama Ange came out uh and that has to be a motivator I know when I got my first
18:49
son butcher oh from the from the rescue laughs
18:57
totally the same thing you know totally new motivation yeah yes exactly I'm like I gotta get butcher a dog house
19:04
I got to get him some new toys he doesn't like his old toys he ripped them up he needs new toys premium toys that
19:11
don't get ripped I need to get him a jacket he's gonna get cold he gets cold
19:17
it's a cold house you gotta send him to school yes that's really important puppies these days yeah and he's a
19:23
runner you know yes we gotta know that oh my goodness jeez so I gotta I gotta get him awfully strained you know that's
19:31
that's money that's money that only a bonus will fix exactly exactly uh but uh
19:38
yeah Rob find came in there just looking beastly and landed some nice punches
19:44
just caught Jana's and you know when you see The Knockout you've seen it in the
19:49
past where Jana's kind of looks at what he did he lands a couple and he kind of
19:54
stays there right here and Rob font was just able to come over the top of that and make him pay for it so yeah Janice
20:03
will be better for it of course you know he's a young guy and he's coming up but I think Rob plant really needed that win
20:09
like that was one of those hey you still got it buddy kind of fights and he was
20:14
able to show out so I think that was a really big one for him yeah I think it'll definitely Propel him in the
20:20
division it just like it reminds everybody who he is exactly where he's at and he's he's you know I
20:28
think he is you know part of the you know top five maybe conversation that's
20:33
that's my opinion I think you know there's the division is so stacked but I feel like he could get
20:39
a top five next yeah I'm wondering what he is I kind of want to check that what his ranking is that's a few questions
20:48
um but since we're talking about people uh reminding them who they are did you
20:53
see Barbosa oh we're just jumping back and forth I
20:58
don't [ __ ] care I don't [ __ ] care me was on fire dude he threw that tiger
21:07
knee boom just [ __ ] oh I know poor guy oh it was beautiful no it was oh he
21:15
he came out like you know he first did when he came out when he was you know knocking people out with spinning kicks
21:21
and just throwing these like crazy heavy impressive kicks he's never really you know
21:26
deviated from who he is he just uses it so well um you know I can't say that
21:33
there are no wasted movements or anything like that but when he throws he throws and it's devastating and he's
21:39
just when he wins it's in such an impressive form dude is so nasty it is yeah and he
21:46
he hasn't had a win like that and it's been a while no he's bought some Grapplers and he's had some really tough
21:51
fights and he really hasn't he's been put on his heels more in his fights and he really hasn't been able to Showcase
21:58
it but what he he came out and he asserted himself and he got the win because of it did he well he he asserted
22:05
himself but also he was kind of uh you could tell he was waiting for that shot like he was he was waiting he stayed at
22:12
the perfect distance the entire time and then when he finally pulled the trigger it was the perfect moment I feel like he
22:17
only threw that knee in the whole fight but I'm not sure I'm gonna
22:23
maybe mix it up with uh with uh Roy Val's fight because that was a very
22:28
similar fight where he was just like keeping a good range keeping a good range and then bam nasty knee it was a
22:35
good uh card last weekend no we're really really good like sneaky good card yeah I really wasn't expecting it and
22:42
then you know on Saturday I'm you know bringing up the the fight card and looking at it I was like holy crap
22:49
so just to go back route font is ranked number six okay and then at number well
22:55
of course at the top we have Al Joe then number one we have marab the vashabili
23:01
uh Channel Mali Corey sandhagen kyota Yan and Marlon Vera so definitely
23:06
definitely gonna see him fighting one of those guys I think a fight against Marlon Vero would probably be a good one
23:13
or pyodrion like uh did he fight him yet I don't remember no they haven't fought yet oh Well he fought Vera before in
23:21
that one he kind of uh just got rocked a bunch and I think that was the fight that made everyone think
23:27
that Giannis was gonna beat him he rob font was just outscoring them outscoring
23:34
them outscoring them the whole fight but Vera out of nowhere just it was like
23:39
even though you know Vera did damage in that fight but he wasn't throwing enough Rob find out valued him in every single
23:48
round yeah and if it hadn't been there was um there was a knock down I think it was in the fifth
23:54
and I feel like that just kind of was was very like uh prevalent in the judge's Minds
24:01
where they scored it so it's like I just felt bad that all of that body of work was completely derailed because
24:09
of the damage yeah because you could look at it I know people aren't going to agree with me but you could look at it
24:15
and you could say Rob fun won that fight yeah but it's like the way that Vera
24:22
gets out of the way of stuff it's really I don't know it's hard to put a pin on
24:29
it because you can't say oh they're just insignificant strikes because they're still Landing yeah but he'll roll with
24:36
stuff and he'll like slip things just slightly and really wait for that opening to hit and that's why his
24:43
punches do so much more damage than Rob fonts I don't think he necessarily hits that much harder but he's waiting for
24:50
the right opportunity he has his energy all saved up for these three punches he's gonna throw it around and it ends
24:57
up swaying the fight because the first thing that they're supposed to score a fight on is who had the most
25:05
fight swing attacks like who did that most to like
25:11
really change the momentum of the fight and every time Cheeto got hit he's like
25:18
rolling with it moving still on his feet still Lucid every time funk got hit he
25:23
was like dropping down to one knee his face was all mashed up so I get why they
25:29
scored it for him um but like if people weren't if people were going just on a point spaces then
25:36
he could have won those rounds because it's like oh you scored more points these punches these hard punches
25:43
are the same as these not so hard punches or these glancing punches you know
25:49
um but yeah I think this was a good Redemption fight for him because obviously he took that to heart like I
25:55
can't just score volume I need to hurt these guys and that's why he got like such a nasty knockout with Giannis that
26:02
was pretty cool that was pretty cool um so yeah Barbosa had a nasty knockout
26:08
uh with the knee uh Roy Val who is one of my favorite new guys right now Miranda Roy Val he like just goes out
26:16
and throws everything in the kitchen sink he's nasty on the ground he's nasty on the feet and uh he just doesn't give
26:23
a [ __ ] like it like that's a style he doesn't give a [ __ ] and in this fight I
26:28
freaking let me see who did he fight um he fought somebody this weekend and
26:37
knocked him out nasty with a knee uh Nicola
26:43
yes and uh Nicola he's like he's good you
26:49
know like he's not a scrub um I'm pretty sure he's in top 15. pretty sure uh but yeah rival he was
26:58
able to keep his distance he kind of Switched stance a bit and then eventually
27:06
nicolao like close the distance and he was just like there for that knee up the middle oh it was so nasty dropped him
27:13
immediately and then the fight was over so I always love a good knee knockout
27:18
it makes me uh makes me amped for my own fight coming up I'm like watch out
27:24
McKenzie big old Chomp on my knee
27:30
um we should talk about
27:36
the main event on UFC 287 because we haven't touched on
27:41
that yet oh no we haven't so we're we're done with UFC fight night um are we let me see let me glance over
27:48
it real quick we can talk about the worst decision ever oh yeah I haven't we
27:53
can talk about how um clay Guida faked his retirement oh yeah
27:59
get some to get some camera time so we could say happy birthday to somebody oh well there's a few there's a few more
28:06
notes but nothing pressing there's a there's a few more but let's get to the nitty gritty first and then on our
28:12
exclusive iPad stuff we can we can get into the riffraff um but yeah let's let's talk about that
28:19
adasanya fight holy [ __ ] so who did you think was gonna win going into this I
28:25
actually I thought adasania was gonna get it okay just because
28:31
of the history because of how he showed him or how he showed his his skill set
28:38
in their first MMA outing I thought that he really used utilized the grappling
28:43
well I thought that he you know was Landing more more volume he heard him
28:49
and uh was at the end of the second round in their first fight so I was like you know what I think that he has just
28:54
more MMA IQ more MMA experience he's been doing it longer he has more tools
29:01
in the toolbox in this particular you know setting and then seeing how the
29:07
first fight went I was like oh I think I think he's gonna get it this time I did not see it ending the way it did oh I
29:15
didn't I mean not that not that he couldn't have done it not that you know it's not possible for him to knock him
29:20
out I just thought I was like okay he is probably going to take all of the notes from their previous fight and he's you
29:27
know gonna execute it in a similar way not the same but similar yeah
29:33
so yes yeah no I was I was pretty surprised um that it ends so quickly yes
29:40
um I I understood it though like so I was um
29:46
I was wondering if he would try to Grapple more and I think we talked about that before the fight like will he try
29:52
to Grapple more in the fight and one thing that you have to worry about is
29:57
to know how to be efficient with the wrestling takes a long time it takes I mean we've
30:04
been working on it forever and I'm still like as soon as I get to someone's head so
30:10
like okay I'm doing it right right oh I'm so tired are they down yet
30:17
um so it's it's one of those things that takes a long time to do and I had a
30:23
feeling that he tired himself out in that grappling round he did where he
30:30
was just like on padaya like the whole time just on his back hanging on there
30:35
with his like Pinocchio legs and stuff let me get you and uh
30:42
and and then I got to talk to his coach and he said yeah that was a big part of
30:49
of our game plan was not doing that this time because he was winning it on defeat
30:54
why waste that energy to went around when eventually you're gonna lose the
30:59
fight so it took a lot from his gas tank he was saying in the first fight and um
31:06
in this in this Camp they wanted to focus on staying on the feet and just
31:11
beating them in those areas that he was beating them in the first fight and like you said the history of all their fights
31:18
arasanya was winning all those fights until the very last moment that he lost it you know he won it in the first fight
31:25
I felt like uh then in the next one he got him with an eight count and then
31:31
because it was Muay Thai or kickboxing you get an eight count and then you reset and then he got knocked out bad so
31:39
this this time he was actually able to beat him up and he hit almost the same
31:45
exact combo that he wobbled him with in the in the second round of the third
31:51
fight person in a May fight he hit him with almost the same exact combo that put him down so he hit it a little
31:57
earlier was able to capitalize on it and then won the fight so I was really impressed
32:03
with that yeah I thought that um I I and I don't know pahira well enough
32:12
like his past fight experience but he seems to not make the adjustments that
32:17
arasania makes and so he was still defending the same way he's just very he's he's telling I mean he hits like he
32:25
hits like a freight train so yeah you know all he needs to do is connect once and I think that's what gives him so
32:30
much confidence and what pushes people back so much yeah but when you go against such an intelligent seasoned
32:37
Striker like adesanya you know you have to be able to make those adjustments and I just didn't see those adjustments yeah
32:43
well it's uh I think his adjustments were probably on cardio
32:49
and they were probably on just being a little more aggressive and trying to get the fight over with a little sooner
32:56
um because he had success when he pushed out of signing up against events like that's where he had success he had success with the leg kicks he was
33:02
throwing way more earlier this fight yeah so I think those calf kicks were
33:07
making a big difference and I think he just he went for the kill a little too soon like he was like oh I got him hurt
33:14
how to sign a backs up to the cage he's like okay this is where I open up this is where I like retain my title and
33:21
that's when he was able to catch him so I I think it wasn't just
33:26
it wasn't just him having to make adjustments but I think there was a little trap laid out there I think
33:32
adesanya knew if he backed up to the fence that's when paleo
33:38
was gonna come for and that's when he was gonna like smell blood and that's when he got The Knockout last fight so
33:45
it's hard to adjust something when it worked last night you know what I mean and uh yeah I think I think uh adasanya
33:53
just has always had his number but was never able to have the right
33:58
circumstances to get the win and that's why it's probably a big moral victory
34:04
for him because he's like ah finally beat this [ __ ] well it was like moral victory until he taunted a child
34:14
I mean but that's neither here nor there I mean I know how you feel about children I feel like if you were in that
34:21
situation you do the same thing no I absolutely not definitely do the same
34:26
thing if if somebody's kid wants to make fun of me I'm like no we're gonna have
34:31
it we're gonna have a conversation but I'm not gonna act like a child I'm gonna be like [ __ ] you
34:39
[ __ ] the kids the only reason I'm I'm okay with it is
34:46
because Alex perea said that his kid wanted to do it after their last fight
34:52
after the last MMA fight which was less than a year ago so it's not like he did
34:57
it when he was five and then he was never gonna do it again he had to be told not to do it again so he still
35:03
wanted to do it yeah he thought about doing it this time and then his dad got knocked out and then he couldn't do it
35:09
but I he wanted to do it that's probably the only reason he was crying like I can't do it now oh but no I
35:16
I get the pettiness man I get the pettiness kids are [ __ ] no I can't I get that
35:23
like you know it's a it's a harmless lesson to learn no one got hurt physically
35:30
just emotional damage scarred for the rest of his life
35:35
he's not gonna do that [ __ ] again he won't get another people's grown folks business again well he should have been
35:41
it should have been done that's like that was my kid how to grab him with a
35:46
[ __ ] whatever I could in public and escort him over and make him apologize
35:52
and then we would have had a Stern talking to and by Stern I mean it would have been behind closed doors so if that
36:00
didn't happen would you be surprised if someone
36:07
was still annoyed by that say again I said if that didn't happen if there was no Stern talking to no
36:13
apology like oh yeah I mean he's the lesson the lesson has been taught by someone else
36:19
yes it should have it should have been dealt with previously though yeah
36:25
[Laughter] I'm Petty as [ __ ]
36:31
it has my seal of approval for petty oh my goodness oh my goodness I'm still
36:38
like every time I'm in the PM like what's up Claudia she's just like
36:44
looking away being weird
36:51
hello hey [Laughter]
36:56
pettiest [ __ ] uh I try not to be yeah well it's uh
37:02
freeing sometimes um in other news my now doppelganger
37:09
everyone keeps tagging me in photos of Gilbert Burns because he has a mini fra
37:15
um he had an awesome performance against Jorge mask at all uh just did what
37:21
everyone expected him to do like yeah we we thought like we might get a finish we might get like a TKO or a sub or even a
37:28
knockout because brands has hands too but um just kind of
37:34
showed him that he was on a different level and I think that's what Gilbert needs to keep doing in order to get back
37:40
to that title shot I think that burns has been so impressive in his last few outings
37:46
um you know since he's gone up a weight class he looks a lot healthier he can eat a lot harder he has I mean he's
37:52
always been you know one of the high output kind of Fighters but man he has just
37:58
been on another level and it's been so impressive and you know he ended up being mossipidal's retirement fight and
38:06
it did show just uh the Gap you know it showed what was missing with mosfied all and
38:13
you know hats off to him he he had a wonderful career and I've always been a
38:18
fan of him but uh definitely Burns just was was on another level and I think that he's he's
38:24
got to be like next in line behind I think that they said um what's his name is going to get the
38:31
title colby colby but what about below below's another one
38:36
I don't want to see him get a title fight I'm sorry I can never pay attention during
38:43
his fights why Oh I thought there was that it was like
38:49
something weird that he does no no listen on fire though no he has he is
38:56
super super good at what he does he has a great strong wrestling game he has
39:01
good hands he's just a very solid fighter but he's not going to sell a pay-per-view
39:08
uh well his his nickname kind of says it all right remember the name that's his
39:13
nickname because people keep forgetting about him I feel bad about it but I feel like
39:20
that's that's kind of the the joke that people keep forgetting about him and he keeps getting passed over and he's on a
39:26
crazy streak right now and then I think his last two fights he got finishes so
39:31
uh he's he's got to be next in line behind uh you know or next to
39:39
Gilbert next to that shopkat guy next to Kobe he's gonna be waiting a long time
39:45
it's just like a log Jam at the top of that weight class so and it's one of
39:50
those it's that it's that weight class that is like really exciting really stacked and
39:57
whoever has more entertainment value is going to get that because that's what they want to
40:03
sell pay-per-views it's still an entertainment sport yeah for sure um so I was wrong his last fight was
40:11
wasn't against Brady finish yeah but that was it wasn't too the last one but his fight against Vicente Luce was
40:18
domination and I didn't expect that so I I feel like Bilal Muhammad has just
40:24
leveled up insanely every time he gets out there every every win he's just getting better and better
40:30
um I think the only reason people aren't super excited about seeing him fight Leon Edwards is because we kind of had a
40:36
preview and it wasn't going well for him before he got poked in the eye like it
40:42
wasn't going great but he gets so much better each fight I
40:48
wouldn't be surprised if he could put Leon on his heels I wouldn't
40:54
you know what's gonna happen eventually like it has to happen especially if he keeps winning it has to happen
41:00
eventually like it's only a matter of time does it though it will like it will really who's the chick who got the title
41:07
shot against um uh [ __ ] I can't think of it but uh somebody
41:14
got the title shot against um I think it was Ronda Rousey and everyone's just like
41:20
why was it Alexis Davis probably she had
41:26
like an eight-fight win streak and everyone was like why is she getting the title shot and then they look at her
41:32
record and they're like oh she won a bunch of fights no one else
41:37
has that's a good comparison though yeah no it really is a lot of the fights were
41:43
not memorable not uh there weren't any big moments in those fights a lot of
41:49
like kind of could go either way but she she was pretty lucky with the decisions
41:54
and was getting win after when so even though people were confused on paper it
42:00
made sense so even a Bilal has to wait out the more popular fighters it's gonna
42:06
happen eventually because his style is very unbeatable it's a pretty solid
42:11
style it's a solid style and talk about making adjustments every time that guy comes up against someone who I'm like oh
42:18
he might give him trouble he'll just switch one thing he'll change one one way that he approaches the fight and
42:25
just [ __ ] him up it's really is it's it's really impressive whatever he's doing um he should write a book about it
42:31
because he's he's come up with a way it's kind of like the uh dagasanis you
42:36
know like wasn't he that's who he was training with he was training with those guys his last fight but I feel like he's
42:42
just he his mentality and the way he approaches fights is is very uh it's
42:48
just very smart so I mean even if people aren't excited about you fighting you're winning you're cashing checks you know
42:55
you get both of your paychecks at the end of the day and that's all that really matters it is yeah it is it it is
43:02
however it'll it'll get you at the back of the line eh it will just just remember the
43:09
bank statement remember the bank statement
43:14
um so after that any other fight you want to
43:19
kind of chop up about um on 287 because we did a lot on the
43:26
fight night that just happened this weekend um well we can talk about
43:34
