0:03
all right and we're back oh yes we
0:08
are still putting my headphones on so we're back um man there were a lot
0:17
of good fights on the card but like I said there's some snoozers there were you know what all cards cannot be fire
0:26
all the time sometimes there has to be little bit of smoke before you catch a spark
0:32
and then a forest fire I I feel like I was a
0:37
little just uh I don't know I was overselling it in my head because Canada
0:43
usually has a bunch of crazy fights I think something about like the culture uh their love for
0:50
hockey something about that I'm like okay this is like hockey but there's no
0:55
hockey you you did this to yourself it's just goons just a bunch of goons coming out after each other and then yeah it
1:02
was it there were a few snoozers um the biggest snoozer and more than one sense
1:08
of the word was the heavyweight fight Romanov versus
1:14
Nas and let me tell you uh if you miss this fight you didn't miss much you're
1:21
good like just don't watch it don't worry don't watch it it was it was so bad so uh Romanov did his classic thing
1:29
where he comes in pushes the guy against the fence uh gets a real big mat return
1:34
gets him to the ground but for whatever reason he couldn't get to the sub like he usually does he couldn't get to a
1:40
good smash position where he's hitting him so the whole time he's just pushing
1:46
naso through the fence it looks like The Playdoh thing cuz all his all his all
1:52
his belly all of his heavy weight all of his heavy weight all his muscle and
1:58
braon is getting pushed through the fence links and they don't break it and then
2:04
by the time it finally does get broken they both look ass well it's interesting
2:10
that the refs have just been so like on
2:15
on it with trying to break up you know stalemates stalling of they've been
2:22
doing it a lot lately sometimes I mean we were talking about uh what was the girl's name uh PR PR something uh the
2:30
first uh yeah the first fight she was on that fence for a long time like they
2:35
gave her a lot of time they finally warned her but they didn't end up breaking it up I think that was in the
2:41
first yeah so is I think it depends on the night it depends on the fight too
2:47
like I think people are quicker to break up title fights or Co or main events and
2:52
co- Main Events more than the prelims where I don't know I guess there's not a PE a lot of people in the crowd billing
3:00
yet but this fight I I'm not a booer but you booed
3:06
but if I were to boo if I had to pick a fight to boo in it might have been this
3:12
one because they were they were so tired these big boys they were so tired a lot
3:18
of times they were just standing in front of each other they half to fight Romanov had his hands by his waist and
3:25
he's slipping punches but not like fast he's just like listen you talk about how
3:32
you know going up in weight classes there's a lot more mass to move around so you're going to be a little bit slower you're going to be a little bit
3:38
flatter on the feet he looked like he had a lot of mass that night he did he
3:44
was he was very Massy um but the reason I bring this up is because the stigma of
3:52
heavy weights in in the Casual MMA fans they're so exciting they're so exciting
3:59
someone's going to get knocked out big boys oh my God and then you talk about
4:05
women's fights and you're like oh this is the fight I go to the bathroom during I could have done a lot in the bathroom
4:12
during that fight I get that it was very long to each their own you know if people see
4:19
things a certain way they're only ever going to see it that way they're not open-minded and they're going to miss out on the good stuff for what they
4:25
think is better the good technique the good uh the story lines the
4:31
ferociousness um you know the variety of ways that a fight can be finished uh we
4:37
we have it all guys don't don't and the outfits and the outfits we have way better outfits potential nip slips I
4:44
know nobody want lips nobody wants to see romanov's titties as much as they want to see they see them the whole time
4:51
they saw them the whole time they see it's not fun it's not fun is it fun did
4:57
you have fun watching that yeah it's okay if you did I thought I thought that
5:03
that fight was a great um uh ad for women's
5:11
MMA it's like hey guys it's not always as bad just they forget because I mean
5:18
heavyweight fights can be you know very uneventful until there's like boom one
5:23
big firework but like there's no there's no like Grand Finale there's just like
5:28
one big boom and then it's done and then people forget they have short memories that uh this is
5:34
not um the most accurate portrayal of a
5:39
heavyweight fight yeah and we're we're not really in the greatest era of
5:45
heavyweight fights too or heavyweight fighters in the UFC um so it that too
5:52
makes me a little annoyed that people talk so much crap about women's MMA now
5:59
when you know we're we're doing pretty good right now we're on the rise and I think uh if anything heavyweight might
6:05
be a little bit on the decline but maybe having an active Champion will
6:12
save that and we have Jon Jones versus um coming up so maybe that'll maybe
6:19
that'll uh uh revive the heavyweight weight class a little bit um but uh we lost a heavyweight
6:27
fight in drick Lewis what happened well it was a non weight cutting issue so my
6:35
theory is he got sick uh from what I don't know I think that's everyone's
6:42
the I think that's what the the article said oh is it
6:49
uh well it's a nonmedical issue or non-medical weight could I don't know but it the way I read it getting issue
6:56
yeah yeah it I feel like it alluded to there was a medical thing yeah um cuz
7:02
that's really the only the only reason I mean he's not going to get pregnant it's not they're going to pull him for the night fight we for we pregnant um as you
7:09
know women would you know be up for um so that's not the issue um you know it
7:16
could be that he got sick could been food poisoning I mean I remember when I was at your fight in Brazil there was a
7:22
guy that got sick backstage all of a sudden he had like food poisoning kicked in and he had to be rushed uh out on a
7:29
gurnie you know these like weird things happen during fight week because you're so you're so depleted your body is not
7:37
able to like fight things off the way it normally would I don't think Dereck Lewis was depleted he could have been
7:43
listen well maybe diet wise depleted in the sense that he is he was working hard
7:49
he's been working hard the muscles are fatigued yeah his immune system probably
7:54
dropped and it's just kind of easy to you know catch something I mean it's
7:59
it's happened countless countless times um it's not a completely common
8:04
occurrence but it does happen yeah so hoping the best for Derek I I feel like
8:10
he would have breathed some uh fun funest into the fight night as well but
8:15
luckily we had a lot of good finishes on the main card and at the end of the the
8:20
prelim so we didn't need them but it would have been nice to have him we would have enjoyed it but uh Your Girl
8:27
Jazz divicious was able to get a nice um Spotlight on the main card because of
8:32
it yes and so that was cool for her yeah um but uh there was another really cool
8:40
fight that I wanted to talk about and that was uh Justin
8:46
stus yes that was versus Mark Andre buote so this man caught a a Tak down
8:53
off of a head kick and he got oh no it was a leg kick
8:59
oh leg kick sorry yeah yeah I was like what that yeah caught a head kick I was like
9:05
wow that was funny but that headkick was so light she like flicked it up and she
9:10
was like oh thank you but still it's like one of those things in in you know in sparring with your training partner
9:17
you know you'll place you'll place a headkick and sometimes you can catch a takedown off of it because your partner's being nice yeah uh so it was
9:24
just funny to kind of see in a fight but it you know worked to our advantage showed us that she could get back down
9:30
to the ground no problem yeah yeah but this one uh stolitz was able to hit uh
9:36
one of those low it was almost like he kicked the ankle it was really nice he just swept him off his feet jumped on
9:42
top of him and was able to take advantage of that little moment yeah it was it was nice he that man can generate
9:48
some power M because that that's no easy feet when somebody's down like that you
9:54
know and then uh they came up right they came up and they got into a pocket
10:00
yeah um and then that's you know that's kind of the RO of the dice it makes for an exciting potential knockout but you
10:07
could be on the giving and receiving end of it it's just kind of a coin toss sometimes when you get into those big
10:13
brawler pocket situations yeah and this guy wasn't known for his brawling if
10:18
anything um um Mark Andre was yes so that was the really cool moment for him
10:24
and if you look at the two you would go I think that one shouldn't be doing
10:31
that I think stot shouldn't be doing that I think that guy should be doing that I don't think that one should be
10:36
doing that but when he started throwing those little hooks underneath his arm he caught the chin four times in a row and
10:44
each time he caught the chin you could see uh Mark Andre's hands go uh uh uh
10:51
like just slowly letting the air out of his tires it was really like it was one of those Epic movie moments to watch
10:58
like if you're doing a fight scene that's going to be a fight that you study like as a choreographer you're going to study the reactions of that
11:06
moment because that's what it looks like in real life when people just go crazy go ham and just start throwing at each
11:12
other man what a fight I was real happy he got the bonus and then his postf fight speech too he was just like happy
11:19
to show off that he has hands as well even though people don't don't think that of him so I thought that was a
11:25
really cool moment and he did the right thing in winning over the Canadian Crowd Oh did he do he was just saying like hey
11:31
I'm you know I know I'm not from here kind of thing but you know I'm happy to be here he's just he was very he was a
11:37
very gracious winner and we like to see that I feel like it's it'd be hard to piss off the Canadian crowd you'd have
11:43
to be like a real dick yeah CU isn't that the thing Canadians are just very
11:49
very polite I I think they're undercover Shady though remember we fought a Canadian uh when uh when I fought loopy
11:55
her cornermen were super Shady they were like fake nice yeah yeah what's that all the boots e what's
12:03
that all the boots nice take down
12:09
a to uh I don't know I'm trying to think of something Shady to say but yeah I I get
12:17
that but at the same time it's easier to win over the Canadian crowd than like the Brazilian Crowd Oh yeah or the
12:24
Mexican crowd for sure or I don't know
12:30
that's all I can think of like the really the really mean ones yeah maybe the French oh the French crowd you
12:37
validated your point oh the French they don't give a [ __ ] you can you can go
12:42
hello Paris they'll be like
12:49
suck they love Banning people from their country as well oh really who did they ban
12:55
battle oh yeah they said they said get out and stay out that's amazing yeah so
13:02
it's like if you can't win them over just lean all the way in I think I think
13:08
uh he was saying that he was uh I think he was saying that he was I think you
13:13
should check the camera H was that my phone oh was it I turn it on do not
13:23
disturb still done that's weird yeah where did that come from that was your phone I think I think it might have been
13:29
Adams oh go oh there's a thingy over there sorry guys freaked out but yeah uh
13:36
I think battle was planning on being nice to the crowd but they just kept
13:42
booing over him like that's what he said in one of his uh one of his interviews afterwards
13:48
he's like I was planning on you know saying thank you Paris and blah blah blah but they wouldn't stop booing so I
13:54
just I just let it Loose leaned in I just leaned in like what are you going to do now you're now you're banned from
14:01
the country good job yeah but the Canada crowd seemed pretty polite when their countrymen lost that night so I think it
14:09
would be a fun place to fight just because of that yeah for sure yeah yeah
14:15
maybe I don't know they'll be polite enough I don't know I've cornered there before Oh I cornered back there it was
14:22
nice but um their weird Side Story one of their friends ended up getting like
14:28
kicked out of Canada H arrived uh on the plane and tried to go through customs and they're like
14:33
they'll make you feel like you're a criminal I have experienced this too and I have a very clean
14:39
record but I they almost make you feel like like did I do something wrong do I have a warrant for my arrest I don't
14:45
know but they'll like kick you out and send you back to wherever you came from real quick they won't even let you in the country is that sarcasm that
14:51
Canadian sarcasm you're not a you're not a criminal eh just like uh why would you say that
14:59
am I I don't know looking pretty guilty eh
15:04
maybe why are you so calm about this you're making me second guess
15:10
myself oh that's great yeah well yeah uh that was cool that he was able to win over the fans and and get that big
15:16
knockout and uh you know the other guy who I thought had a stellar performance
15:23
was Yousef zalah man that knee oh in the second
15:29
round just this beautiful step through knee from the back leg and just hit him
15:35
right on the head as he was coming in yeah so did you see he landed that in the first round but it was so fast that
15:41
like the commentary didn't pick up on it they didn't really say anything about it um and Jack sure played it off really
15:48
well but I was like I think that landed yeah like you you saw his head jolt up and then you weren't quite sure if like
15:55
it hit his hand or it hit his like his chest as he dipped in or if it just
16:01
tapped him in the chin and those are the ones that really mess you up like that was what happened with uh with Mark
16:08
Andre it was those little Taps on the chin that you're not expecting because they're coming in from a weird angle
16:14
that just like throw off your equilibrium so that's what happened um with Yousef zal and even before that it
16:21
was just like a lot of nasty leg kicks a lot of good striking um uh they were
16:27
both really good on the the ground I think uh Jack short thought he'd have the advantage on the ground but like you
16:33
know what a great setup to the takedown is a drop yeah just drop him a big old
16:42
KNE to a face that's a great way to get the take down and uh you know Yousef zal
16:48
he's just been grinding since he got back into the UFC and it's really cool
16:53
to watch because he got cut off of a bunch of tough fights um he was able to
16:59
uh work his way back in by fighting on the regional scene getting a bunch of Kos and then being brought back in and
17:06
getting a bunch of submissions once he got back into the UFC and um it's just a
17:13
really nice feel-good story for anyone who was cut pretty early I was cut like
17:18
after my second fight in the UFC um and it's hard to have that motivation to
17:26
once you get there you know you you always think oh I'm in the UFC or whenever I see people get excited for
17:31
getting signed I'm like H that's the easy part listen these things are not
17:38
yeah these I mean these experiences though like if you if you look back can you find some appreciation where it
17:44
because these experiences that you know the fighters go through getting cut early and stuff like that like these are
17:49
not there to break you they're meant to build you and make you better you know what I'm saying so I think that you know
17:56
if you look at his case in point I think it was good for him to happen because now look at him look at what he's doing
18:03
yeah and that's what I'm saying it's a Feelgood story because I think a lot of people once they do get cut uh it's easy
18:10
to just go ah I [ __ ] up as opposed to all right
18:16
now it's time to do more now it's time to do better and uh I love seeing that
18:23
because it gives a lot of like they're cutting people left and right right now so it gives a lot of athletes hope
18:28
especially like the ones who are who got cut off of their first couple of losses
18:33
the ones who you know just got in there got the toughest fights and then they're like all right come back when you have
18:39
more experience like it it really gives people hope that okay this is what you have to do to get back in because before
18:46
it used to be more of a rare story and now you're seeing it more and more where people are able to go out andess get the
18:53
ones they need and then come back in and put on a crazy uh run like uh Z youf is
18:59
doing or yousef's law is doing yeah and uh he's out of Factory x too so you know
19:05
those leg kicks are nasty the ones that he's able to throw and that little uh step and knee is just so sneaky like is
19:14
is I'm I'm really excited to see who he fights next cuz uh you know give him somebody ranked and I feel like he's
19:21
going to be able to do the same thing drop them jump on top of them get the
19:27
sub yeah it's been impressive very impressive who do you think that they're going to pair him up against next
19:34
um I'm not sure he's uh in the featherweight division um it's one of
19:40
the most stacked divisions right now I mean just looking at the rankings Dan
19:46
eay is number 14 so which is crazy [ __ ] that's like damn like this top 15 is
19:54
ridiculous I think featherweight might be worse than lightweight right now it's usually uh weight is where it's at yeah
20:01
it's usually like a toss-up between the two um which is the scariest I mean U lightweights pretty scary right now too
20:08
but in featherweight you have 15 Edson Barbosa 14 Dan eay 13 Bryce Mitchell 12
20:16
Giga chazi I think that would be a fun one uh Giga is just coming off of a loss
20:21
to Arnold Allen uh kickboxers uh kickboxers with a little bit of
20:27
grappling I think that would be a really cool one to watch just to ease in you
20:32
know feel like E I feel like that just throw to the deep end it's fine he's at
20:37
that I mean I'm looking at the these matchups Edson Barbosa maybe but he's
20:43
he's still a killer I mean uh we watched him and Lon Murphy go at it and that was
20:49
a nasty nasty fight Lon took his lumps before getting that win so I mean any
20:56
anybody in the top like do you think he's he should go for top 15 next I
21:02
think so I think that would be I think that would be fair because he's come back into the UFC and he's gotten four
21:08
finishes or three three finishes yeah he's gotten three finishes um in the UFC
21:15
uh and you have to you know you have to at
21:22
this point but I I wouldn't be surprised if they gave him one more one more tough unranked guy um not sure who they
21:30
are but I'm sure if I see who's ranked number 16 to 20 I'm GNA be like
21:38
damn that's still really tough yeah so I think having a number next to your name
21:43
just sweetens the deal and makes it more exciting but I I'll watch this guy fight whoever signs someone for him to submit
21:50
again I don't care cuz I love watching him fight it's just the way that he's able to string everything together is
21:56
really fluid and and I think he's got something special going on and just his story too just makes it even more of a
22:04
fun fighter to watch yeah I agree well speaking of fun fighters to
22:12
watch we got a lot of really sweet messages from our followers about your
22:20
last fight and you know some uh some news came out and I was wondering if you
22:27
just like kind of say your piece about it just so we can clear the air and well
22:32
address those kind people who reaching out and sending their love yeah I really
22:39
appreciate it guys I've just been you know taking some time to myself trying to get back into shape and then get
22:46
ready for a fight um after such a long layoff it's not like I was on the mats
22:52
at all so it was just it was a lot of energy it was a lot of um you know stress on me and I mean some was real
23:00
and some of it was you know me putting it on myself as
23:05
as Fighters do but it was very challenging to get ready for this fight and I do appreciate your support um MMA
23:13
media pushes agendas and they don't always research facts um I did not get
23:20
cut I fought out my contract which was always my goal it was just to fight out my contract and figure out what I want
23:27
to do next um leading up to this fight I felt good
23:32
but there were just a lot of challenges that I faced but I still I love fighting I love improving I love learning and I
23:41
am just kind of ready for the next chapter of my life I don't know what it looks like but um I was kind of
23:47
disappointed not surprised that the MMA media Outlets just kind of took the opportunity to take uh my voice away
23:53
from me in a way so um it is what it is though
24:00
I I just um yeah I'll still be training maybe I'll compete again who knows but I
24:08
have real estate I have the podcast I have you know other things that I'm doing and working on and I'm just kind
24:13
of ready like to do those things and explore that I've uh just had to deal
24:20
with so many layoffs and it's just kind of taken a lot out of me so I'd like to just you know regroup and figure out
24:26
what I'm going to do next yeah but love you guys and I really appreciate all your kind words um they
24:32
don't go unnoticed but uh yeah I still I love this Sport and I'll continue to
24:39
like love it and support it and and Champion it we would hate if you
24:47
didn't yeah it's a it's it's a tough thing and you see a lot of Fighters kind
24:53
of not going out the way they'd like uh I just saw on Germaine durand's page
25:00
that she wanted to have one fight this year because she promised herself she'd retire in 2025 and the UFC wasn't able
25:08
to make that happen so she had to just retire on her Instagram yeah but at
25:14
least she had an opportunity to voice that you know yeah um it not all
25:20
fighters get that you know last fight they don't get to put their gloves down um you know going into this fight I
25:26
never wanted to say like oh this is you know definitely going to be my last fight I didn't want to train for a fight
25:32
and prepare for a fight with that kind of energy um and I'm also a private person so I didn't want to voice it out
25:39
there um I just wanted to do my best in preparing for a fight and no matter what it look like you know deal with it that
25:47
after that happens but um not all fighters get the exit that they want and that's unfortunate I would have liked to
25:53
have exited in a different way and had I you know vocalized and thought it through a little bit more um or just
25:58
thought about more of the after the fight it could have been different but you know it is what it is and the
26:06
universe will you know direct us or redirect Us in the direction that you know we're supposed to be in but I feel
26:13
like um yeah sometimes it's just really unfortunate when things get taken out of the Fighter's
26:18
hands yeah and it's it's a shame that our lives are so public even if we don't
26:25
want it to be you know uh were more so entertainers than athletes I think
26:32
sometimes and so people like to jump on the latest news uh like the the Suarez
26:38
and jander Roba thing I'm still not sure what's real with that fight but I know as soon
26:44
as the news came out uh Suarez was was saying that it wasn't true and so you
26:50
have to wonder what actually happened and and why uh the media would jump on
26:56
something like that so quickly cuz it's easy it's easy and you know MMA media
27:03
why do you think we have a podcast because the bar is so low there's no
27:10
criteria you don't need any credentials you don't need a degree you
27:16
don't need to know how to research properly uh you don't need to check or site your sources all you got to do is
27:24
have a [ __ ] Twitter account yeah and there you are there's your credentials there
27:30
you go so uh it's a LoveHate relationship uh MMA media and actual MMA
27:37
people who do it for a living but um you know it it it sucks you weren't able to
27:44
say your peace first and that's kind of why I wanted uh you to have a platform here just because these are our people
27:51
and and they love and support us so give them give them a little I don't know
27:59
what what should have happened before the the media jumped in and ruined it that's all right you know there was like
28:05
there was always this um thing in the back of my mind because I do believe that everything happens for me like even
28:11
all of these layoffs and you know losses and ups and downs like it's been MMA has
28:17
never been an easy path but it was you know my choice and
28:23
I just like it was your choice to shut the door on your dog
28:28
a why did he react like that oh my God but it's um you know it
28:37
it has been my choice to continually you know try and there is like something in my mind that I always felt or I was like
28:44
you know if I keep going something great will come from this and maybe this
28:53
isn't oh my God oh my God wait did the a serious
29:00
conversation buter come here I lost track buter buter come here you got to show everyone what you oh my God poor
29:07
thing poor guy look at him he's amazing oh my
29:14
dear tell yes
29:19
best he has great timing he does you okay get out of
29:26
here and yeah so I I feel that everything happens for me and I feel like whatever efforts that I've put into
29:33
this are not wasted and they will you know set me up for you know whatever I do next whether I still want to compete
29:39
whether I don't want to compete whatever it is I know that there are no wasted efforts and you know part of me was
29:46
always kind of hoping that the Adam way division would get opened up and that
29:52
was why I had so many you know setbacks and layoffs because it was you know setting me up for this and who knows if
29:57
that happens you know I'm I'm the first one in line to to be putting my my name
30:03
in the Hat uh but yeah it's just one of those things one of those
30:09
things it is what it is yeah yeah um yeah I'm excited to see what's next for
30:16
you and uh you know it when you don't have that pressure of fighting coming up
30:23
it does free you up to just figure out what else you like you know and and it's
30:28
uh it's kind of it's scary and I'm scared because I'm getting close to that point too you know um so it it is scary
30:38
thinking about that and thinking about uh life after fighting uh so you know
30:45
this hopefully this could be a good distraction or Avenue to something hobby

31:47
have definitely gonna get kicked out of UFC now like did you fight out your contract
31:53
no I didn't funny enough aren aren't you coming off a win yeah
32:01
weird I am so strange I guess they watched Episode
32:09
205 I feel like if it happens i' know exactly what episode it was that for
32:14
sure that someone got wind of was it worth it was it worth the
32:21
laughs I'm the only one that laughed it depends on how many likes you got did it go viral did it it probably and
32:29
of it's all for nothing um well speaking of looking
32:37
forward to the future uh there's some fun fights happening next week at the
32:43
Apex keep your eyes on Eric colon Derek clearly Sal deato all the other ones on
32:50
our list Juno chir CH chero was that guy's name Jun chero oh
32:58
is a like kind of Japanese sounding one oh I was thinking about the Ali Muhammad
33:04
something oh I don't think he leaves Saudi Arabia oh well I remember him Abu
33:09
Dhabi I don't think I don't think he has a Visa like
33:15
Jaya uh but next week we're going to have some fun fights in the Apex um including my former faux now
33:24
friend Lana Pinero she'll be fighting Jillian Robertson in the strawweight
33:30
division man there's some really good ones yeah um trying to pull we got
33:36
kolina ktz against Denise Gomez a A former foe of mine as well and a former
33:43
foe of mine foe versus foe hey who foe you think is going to win man I got to
33:48
go with my foe I kind of do too yeah okay fox versus Fox yeah we got okay
33:53
that's one of our picks oh did you notice uh my main and co-main event
34:00
picks for this week were correct I did it's been a while for you so I
34:06
appreciate you know I understand why you're I understand why you're gloating just had to remind you you know well uh
34:14
so uh we also have Luana Pino versus Jillian Robinson in the strawweight
34:20
division uh do you have a pick for that one o I'm going to go with Robertson
34:25
really yeah okay sorry I my heart says Lana but Robertson has been kind
34:32
of just really on point for me she looked really good against Waton um but
34:38
I felt like Waton was kind of a shell of herself in that fight that was her retirement fight um and it's kind of
34:46
like what you were saying about having that mindset of this is the last one she fought like it was her last one she felt
34:52
like felt it was a funeral yeah it was and that honestly like that's what I had in my mind I was that's why I don't even
34:59
want to put that out there I don't want to have that mindset because I don't that's not fair no and that makes sense
35:07
and I I felt like we definitely saw it BR watching it really
35:12
really um because it it wasn't like she was on she was doing her thing and then
35:19
Robinson just found her her her stride and started pulling ahe it was straight
35:26
off the back back in up yeah against the fence not really throwing much offense
35:32
and then Robinson she was looking like a she was looking like the karate fighter
35:37
like she was over there throwing kicks and punches and set up her takedowns really well um I have Lana just because
35:43
she starts really strong she uh she throws off a lot of heat I feel like she can land on Jillian and maybe make her a
35:52
little scared to come in the way she does but again it's a it's a super tough fight and I'm G just bet against you for
36:00
fun but I think it's a pick them like it it really does depend on who's able to
36:06
get their game going first and if Lana is able to get her like hit hard throw
36:11
him big circle do it again thing going then I think it might be hard for Jillian to have the confidence to get in
36:18
on her sure I just think well even if Lana does that the game plan Robertson
36:23
is better on the ground I mean Lana is a is a highlevel judoka black belt and she
36:31
does have I believe a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu if not brown uh but Jillian is
36:37
just a little bit more fluid when you get to the ground so she would have to play it like a very up down game for
36:43
Lana and Jillian even if she was you know put on her back from a throw I just feel like her ability to to Grapple and
36:51
attack aggressively would give Luana trouble yeah I'm not sure about the
36:56
ground because I don't think we've really seen Lana grapple as much like on
37:01
the ground but I think like that transition period the takeown area it's like one person can do Judo one person
37:08
can do wrestling you know and I don't think we've seen a jillion do like a lot
37:14
of huge throws and stuff like that and fight no she goes for that outside single a lot yeah she goes for the
37:20
outside single and that can be a a perfect setup for a huge uchima huge
37:26
herai sometimes so it it's going to be interesting to see who comes out on top like literally
37:32
who comes out on top in these grappling exchanges for sure um and then who else
37:37
are we excited about what about the Maine and the Cole main Neil Magny my big little bro somehow already got a
37:46
fight jealous how'd he get a fight yeah I when
37:51
we fought on the same card I got to go for prus on this one I just he's become like one of my new favorite ERS he's
37:58
nasty he is [ __ ] mean he's mean um Magny has been the cryp tonight for
38:06
people like him yes but we saw in mag's
38:11
last fight uh you know he's sometimes the guys get on top
38:16
sometimes they just Land good on him uh the the maras Michael Morales fight uh that
38:25
Magny lost a myard um Magny was doing all the right things getting on his back
38:31
and then moral Morales just hit him with a nasty elbow dropped him and jumped on
38:37
top and finished it so it's a quick turnaround for a fight to end like that
38:42
like it really is and then prus he has really sharp striking he it's it's like
38:48
what I was saying with uh Yousef zow the ability to flow through everything to hit really hard to get big throws to get
38:55
on top so I'm I'm kind of with you on this one I think uh I think it's too quick of a turnaround for Neil Magny
39:02
after getting knocked out um in his last outing back in August so it's it's a
39:08
really quick turnaround and then Carlos proz he has the ability to knock out he has the ability to to submit um yeah I
39:15
gotta go with Carlos Carlos for that one too this uh this one Cody garment versus
39:21
miles John's my my heart says Cody but John's is is a scary power puncher and
39:27
we we've seen Cody get dropped and he's good at covering and staying on top yeah
39:32
he does he he's like a a nurer medov only a different color you know he's Nur
39:40
off with a with a tan and a mustache he he's good at throwing those
39:45
power punches and then just like getting a big takedown and staying on top garbrandt he's another veteran he's been
39:52
around a lot he's seen a lot but yeah that like to go up against these heart
39:57
hitting hungry guys um I feel like they can survive more than the veterans can
40:04
so if they're coming at if Cody showed up and came at Miles johns with the same
40:10
offense I feel like Cody loses just because he's been through more he's been through more Wars you you see that on
40:18
his chin and you know it's it's one of those things where he's really going to
40:23
have to be crafty in order to beat miles Jones and I mean he does potentially he has so much boxing experience before he
40:30
got into MMA he has a lot of MMA experience um he has great great boxing
40:37
and gar yeah garbrandt he has the ability to control the pace with that it
40:43
just it makes me nervous johns's power yeah I mean John's uh his last win was
40:50
against Cody Gibson who we just saw last night and he looked phenomenal uh was just able to uh wrestle wrestle wrestle
40:58
to the end so you know miles Johns is going to be coming in with a heavy grapple attack you know he's going to be
41:03
trying to to slow garbrandt down to mix up his uh takedowns so that he can
41:10
really cover Cody and and make it hard for him to throw those power shots but at the same time there's the opportunity
41:16
for Cody to get like a a nasty uppercut to to land like his nice counter boxing
41:22
for Grapplers um it is a big step up for John's so it is so we'll see who comes
41:29
out on top with that one do you have a pick uh again my my heart says
41:37
Cody but um I think John's might get this one I'm still GNA pull for Cody though okay yeah I'll go for John's I
41:45
mean I'll go for Cody um unless you want to go for Cody I I'll pick opposite
41:50
though because I feel like this one is is a lot closer than the Magny one um and then you have Carolina I have
41:59
goms yes ma'am who else are we going to look at let's look at the
42:06
prelims o I'll take dalby I can't not bet for him always
42:13
gets to win listen Santos is do Santos is freaking good
42:20
that's why I think D's going to win no I he he does it every time I don't want to bet against Dolby but ah dos Santos ooh
42:29
okay all right I got Doby you got dos Santos yeah oh I hate myself what a dick
42:35
don't tell him tell tell him he's going to be so up freaking love him I think
42:41
he's just the best okay and do you have uh any other guys you want to throw out
42:46
there Oo we have gueston balanos he's been gone for a minute I don't even know
42:51
who that is what are you serious the guy with a crazy spinning elbow KO um not in the
42:59
UFC but I think it was Bader he got that in um gastan balanos he he's an amazing
43:06
Striker but he just got knocked out by Marcus McGee he's fighting someone I've never heard of
43:13
cavus romeus wow that sounds very cavius I've uh I feel like I've known more more
43:22
cavius than I should have growing up I've never known one this is my first cavius uh um yeah gustan balanos is uh
43:31
really cool he has an awesome elbow so you call him dream come
43:37
true elbow spinning knockout uh this one remember this this
43:43
one kind of looks like Toria whoop oh so
43:51
nice he's a new acquisition how long has he been no he's been there for a minute but he hasn't uh really fought that
43:58
often so I'm wondering what's going oh I think uh I think he had an elbow injury
44:03
from elbowing that person I mean probably elbowing people in
44:10
training elbowing uh pads cavius are you not entertained
44:17
romeus oh wow yes wow straight out of uh
44:23
he sounds out Gladiator sounds very yeah it sounds very much so that um let's see he's n
44:32
and two uh two koos five submissions two
44:39
decisions and then uh one KO lost one decision
44:45
loss okay and then gastan balanos he got uh signed to thec in
44:53
2023 and uh so he kind of looked out because he avoided did all the the PF
44:59
elator Drama Oh My Goodness good for you yeah lucky you yeah he beat Aaron
45:05
Phillips uh lost to Marcus McGee who's very good Striker he um trains of Kyler
45:11
Phillips and all those guys um so he is fighting
45:16
cavius romeus and I can't wait to see what cavius is working with because his
45:24
nickname is amazing yeah it's it's a lot so he's coming off
45:30
of a win against Michael uh on the Dano's consenter series
45:37
nice back in August it was a unanimous decision um without knowing anything
45:43
about that fight and then looking at his record I'm I'm also going to lean
45:48
towards Banos sorry a cavius I'm sorry well it
45:54
could be a fun coming out party for cavius too we shall see yes we obviously
45:59
don't know enough about about him to actually choose but I think I think the
46:05
odds are going to be in guston's favor I I agree yeah so uh yeah we have some fun
46:11
fights next week and then the week after we have the MSG card so that'll be a fun one too I I
46:20
almost want to go just cuz that's my old stomping grounds UFC doesn't care they
46:25
never book me over there but would have been nice would have been nice at some point to get booked where I
46:32
started fighting where I spent more than 15 years of my life would have been nice
46:39
but you weren't born there though I know they they really get big on like Hometown Favorites being from there and
46:46
never leaving and I am very much a roll in stone I I claim many
46:53
states so that's your problem they don't but they still didn't book me they didn't book me in DC I had to beg
47:00
to get booked in San Diego and they gave me a 10day notice fight which I was very
47:05
grateful for still and then all the times they go to New York they're like nope it's full
47:11
you're not cool enough oh you got to be cool like your girl karolina who's fought there like
47:17
five times I know what did they why do they like it is it a big Polish crowd No
47:23
like is I mean there are a lot of Polish people in New York it is actually huge for but there's more black
47:31
people way more and they know who I am most of them who watch
47:40
MMA they do yes they do they do I'm pretty
47:45
sure try talk to your boy Beck I know right I've been I've been talking to him I can't bug him too much though I feel
47:52
like I'm on thin ice too much I feel like I'm I'm on thin ice right now we're going to wait we're going to wait but
47:57
