1:03
going to do it's okay it's early uh butcher is also dressed for the occasion I know I wish we could show his his

1:27
little free ho so so
1:33
Guapo put all that on for 10 seconds it was worth
1:39
it you're G to be here a while so how did you like the fights last night you
1:45
know they were pretty good I think we had a really nice viewing party so that made them uh even more entertaining oh
1:52
yeah it's always fun to uh be watching highlights and then your friend is on there and you're
1:58
like oh it happens to me Chang the subject yeah
2:04
look what's that over there yeah yeah yeah oh what's the dog doing the dog's doing something fun yeah I need another
2:10
beer can you grab me one please thank you don't you have to go to the bathroom right
2:15
now yeah um we watched uh at our buddy Wilson Hay's house and uh it was Pantoja
2:23
versus ersc which ended up being more competitive than I had imagined I know
2:29
everyone was hyping like AR say like oh he no one knows who he is but he's legit
2:35
but when I look at who someone's fought and how they made the road to the uh to
2:41
the title shot um I always have that doubt in my head like come on this guy hasn't fought anyone he really didn't
2:48
earn the title shot in a more traditional way but he is not going to
2:54
have the same experience the same caliber of like opponents that have built up this um just tool set to make
3:02
him Unstoppable in the way that pia has and he proved me
3:07
wrong yeah I was like [ __ ] you like I I honestly feel like if it was in a
3:12
different Arena um he could have taken the belt home definitely I mean the the Brazilians go hard for the Brazilians um
3:19
and I I I do agree with you I think there is um you know a couple other fights that that kind of holds water
3:26
with as well on the card but I think that um ersc did a really great job I
3:33
felt really bad that they didn't promote the fight like it's the main event in
3:38
Rio and I didn't hear much about it it would have been really nice to kind of build him up a little bit more or build
3:44
the fight up a little bit more uh but the fight definitely delivered it did it did it was a really um High caliper uh
3:52
really competitive high level fight and uh man there were so many moments where
3:57
I like going into the fifth I wasn't sure who was up three like I thought
4:02
ersc might have been up three but then I was like ooh bias judges maybe uh Pinto's up three and it turned out
4:08
Pantoja was up three on one of the scorecards um going into the fifth but uh he had so many moments St verc did
4:17
and I don't know I think I think he's a little too fast I think he's a little too fast like we're watching him fight
4:24
and every time he lands something we're like wait what was that like like they weren't they weren't scoring on the on
4:31
the on the straight counter I think I think they were blinking as ersc was Landing because he would land like these
4:37
sneaky little uh check hooks these sneaky like knees as pinia is coming
4:42
forward and because pintoa is so good at just eating stuff and just brushing it
4:48
off his shoulders um I feel like they weren't registering as much and they looked like they were landed hard they
4:54
looked like they were hurting but Pinto just has an excellent poker face like you didn't really see how tired he was
5:01
until he got to his Corner mhm for sure I think uh what I was really impressed with like one technique takeaway that I
5:07
saw with ersc was his knees like they were so fast from a sprawl position
5:13
defending a takedown just coming up the middle and then um when he would whenever Penta would cover up he would
5:19
he would sneak one in every once in a while and I really liked that yeah yeah they were sneaky they
5:25
were sneaky and and they would like come straight up the middle like they definitely gave them problem
5:30
and then the thing that annoyed me because I was like H I don't know but then the thing that annoyed me in the
5:36
very end he did the same thing he did to Brandon Mareno pinia did he got on that back and he hid from the fight he was
5:43
like I'm gonna drain the clock out I'm just going to sit on his back I'm G to hold this position as hard as possible
5:51
and you can tell that ersc was just pissed that he allowed that to happen because right at the um as they raised
5:57
Pinto's hand he was just like [ __ ] [ __ ] you know this is oh this so close so
6:03
close to that Victory and um and I'm not going to knock them I do the same thing it's like it's it's good playing the
6:09
game yeah I do the same thing I'm just annoyed about it I'm just annoy that it's a thing that
6:17
works uh that I would love to get better at but isn't necessarily the most
6:23
entertaining way to end the fight but it goes to show how um how damaging Earth
6:29
EXP Clowes were how uh you know 50/50 it was on the feet you he didn't know if he
6:35
was going to get dropped or not if he didn't grab onto his back and hang out there like those elbows too that was
6:40
another little technique takeaway is that what you said earlier te Jess's
6:46
technique takeaways Angela's technique takeaways was that elbow that he started Landing
6:51
um he would because panto was so good at just running through all of his strikes
6:57
he started throwing elbows and the problem with running through an elbow is that it's probably going to cut you if
7:03
you try to just act like it didn't happen the more pressure you put on someone as they're throwing that elbow
7:09
the better chance it has to slice and dice and man ersc landed some really nasty ones and like the second third so
7:17
um yeah that it was an awesome fight I'm I'm sad that it didn't get the promotion it got it kind of reminded me of um
7:24
those the local shows when like a big card comes to a local area area like a
7:30
big card comes to San Diego or something and everyone's there for the hometown guy who isn't big enough to be the champ
7:38
so everyone leaves after the co main you know what I mean and then they bring the people in the bleaches down so so it
7:46
looks like people are still there for the main event that's what it looked like in the crowd it looked like everyone was there for Jose Alo and then
7:53
as soon as panto started then they were like all right let's go back up their stuff and uh he even said Pandi even
8:00
said after his fight don't leave hey as we packed the my stuff to leave all come
8:06
back I was so tired we were Jess you were so quick that I was like I felt it
8:12
I felt it for him I was like ah I should stay and listen to the speech and just went all right I'll see
8:19
you tomorrow I was falling asleep in my seat the couch was so comfy oh man just past
8:26
my bedtime it was a comfy couch she had put your butt on you but you're keeping me warm it just it felt like it was time
8:32
to go to bed like can be falling asleep here or on the road home so let's uh not let's
8:39
avoid those things um yeah I felt I felt bad because it it definitely felt like
8:45
that and I mean it's it's later in Rio everybody you know wants to oh is it what what time would it be there is it
8:51
like East Coast like four hours ahead or something like that oh yeah yeah it's like East Coast plus one so yeah that
8:57
was mad late probably 3:00 a.m. yeah not not as bad as starting at 3:00 a.m. like the UK card coming up oh no are they
9:05
still doing that I mean I think so I think that they have that time slot and that's where uh that's where it's going
9:12
to be dang so the they're starting at 3 a.m. their time yes dang so we we can
9:19
watch at a comfortable time so can listen to The Champ speech after he wins
9:25
and not just [ __ ] off like everyone else in the arena oh man yeah that's that's a rough one
9:33
yeah I saw uh Tom Aspen was complaining about that I would too yeah that's that kind of sucks I feel like they have the
9:40
numbers out there but they must not because it's it's always a numbers game right yeah like they have the numbers
9:46
and when they do the cards in like uh what what are the ones the Abu Dhabi cards they usually do them like in the
9:52
morning or something like that um so I guess they have the numbers for those cards uh they didn't always like back in
10:00
2020 uh we like I I got to be on the set for one of them and we had to go to the
10:06
arena at um I think it was like 11:00 p.m. and then we got back to the hotel
10:12
at like 7 a.m. so it was it was a really rough way to work I felt like one of
10:18
those guys that get up and I don't know work on the subway system or something
10:24
you're working the night shift yeah I felt so blue collar but um um but uh now we're
10:32
actually watching in the morning so I don't know I guess they don't have the numbers yet to make it worthwhile to
10:40
their pockets I don't know yeah I'm not exactly sure I mean all of the the bigger broadcast stations are in the US
10:48
and I think that that's just where the the money is the numbers are the sponsors are yeah so that's where
10:54
they're going to stay and I mean it's the whole like east east side of the
10:59
west side of the world too like uh you think about the South American countries too Mexico like all those guys are
11:06
benefiting from that time slot so yeah maybe that has something to do with it sure that's why we need UFC Africa UFC
11:16
Africa then it would be so much easier to do a time slot that's closer to the
11:22
UK time SL CU isn't Africa kind of close to like longitude wise depending on
11:29
where you're at is like maybe four or five hours difference I am really bad with
11:34
geography um it it doesn't quite make sense to me but I I'm time zones right now what is
11:44
South Africa cuz that's what they're looking at they're looking at South Africa yes I know Africa is not a
11:49
country but let's see um anyway talk about
11:56
uh why don't you why don't you talk about the AL fight while we're while we're doing things oh man you know when
12:03
somebody when somebody retires I'm really excited for them oh I'm right yo I'm right Angela is right I'm so well
12:10
read and learned um Cape Town in South Africa is the same time slot is Paris
12:17
which is one hour difference from London okay yes I'm not stupid anyway
12:24
yeah Jose Aldo fight you think Jose Aldo Jose I'm sorry when I got into MMA he
12:31
was Jose and he didn't correct anyone it was Jose for like a few years
12:38
and then he finally corrected people it's always been Jose no well it's been
12:43
that BR have been saying Jose for like I think in The Wack days they would say
12:49
Jose WC in The Wack days WC call it WC I always call W I got into
12:59
MMA pretty late like I was like what is that
13:05
whack in what are those
13:12
things why do they sound weird when I say
13:17
them um yeah well well they've been calling him Jose the king of Rio for a while calling it WC yes yes yes yes but
13:26
I think the announcers haven't been correcting themselves for a long time so I would hear Jose a
13:32
lot okay sure I continue talk about the
13:38
fight [ __ ] when sorry uh when when somebody retires on
13:45
their own terms I'm really excited about it and often times I'm wondering like if they see something feel something know
13:51
something and they're getting out on their terms it's it's a really nice thing but he didn't necessarily retire
13:58
he went into box in he boxed our friend Jeremy and he was he was still doing well and so when he was going to come
14:04
back into the UFC for real I understood why he would want to do that but I just didn't know exactly what it would look
14:10
like and it made me a little a little nervous because he's he's one of my favorite Fighters he's one of you know
14:18
best in the world ever yeah and so it it makes me a little bit nervous because I
14:23
don't want that uh Legacy to be tarnished I don't want to to see somebody you know go into battle when
14:30
they're not supposed to or they shouldn't anymore and and man he still got it he still got it he
14:37
still got it I did not expect him to not be retired after this fight though win
14:42
or lose because I was thinking okay this is a really tough matchup but at least
14:48
is a guy who understands his game like at least is a guy who is basically hose
14:53
Alo uh new Jen you know Jen Z Jose Alo
14:58
and and um he's going to understand like the setups the how he works he knows how
15:04
to check a kick all that good stuff but um man he really delivered his speed was
15:09
still there you could tell that his power his punching power he was talking about his boxing beforehand and it
15:15
really seemed like the thing that was uh throwing Martinez off more than anything was the power in his onews um just the
15:23
speed of the boxing combinations that were coming out at out at him um it was
15:29
hard for him to get his rhythm going and so once he got to the later rounds he was just forcing it his his Corner was
15:36
pushing him they're like come on you got to go we know it's hard it's easier said than done but you got to go and he tried
15:43
and he tried and finally he just kind of forced it and ran right into that nasty combo that wobbled him and that was the
15:50
moment that really showed you man Jose Aloo got it because up until that point in the third I'm like he's getting a
15:57
little slower he's getting a little more tired he's looking slightly more vulnerable than he did in the first
16:03
couple of rounds maybe Martinez has a chance to like push the pace and that's what got him in trouble MH it was um it
16:09
was a really great performance by Aldo and um I don't know I guess after that
16:15
performance even if I was thinking about retiring I'd be like yeah you know what [ __ ] that you know what never mind Hey
16:24
guys guys guys relax I never actually said that and even if I did I can change
16:30
my mind exactly I I just wanted to know how I felt I'm allowed it was it was a test subject it it passed the test we're
16:38
going to do it again we're good to go yeah I wonder what the reaction of like um of Reed and Hunter and Dana was
16:46
they're like oh Jesus I was thinking that too he's like I have to sit down with Hunter read and Dana and I was
16:53
like I bet they didn't know about that they didn't they didn't know about that meeting they know now
17:00
I bet he's already calling them schedule it in he's already on his way yeah pencel me in on your flight home and I
17:07
would like a raise yeah oh man yeah I mean if anything you saw the way that
17:13
everyone left after Jose Alo fought so that kind of shows him right there he's
17:19
the draw if you're going back to Rio that's the draw if you want to do that
17:24
again even if it's next year or something that's the guy to do it with so
17:30
yeah good for him get that bag get that bag Jose I also I have no idea what he
17:36
was saying to um to Martinez after the fight but I got Tey watching it I
17:42
know it's just um I think Jose Aldo's a a true champion in like every sense of
17:48
the word you know I think he's a great representation of the sport and you know what it is to be an athlete in a champion and a mixed martial artist and
17:55
I loved seeing those moments I would love to see what it was I know I really want to know because he he had a
18:01
translator afterward I was like does he speak English all of a sudden I never knew what language is he's speaking to
18:08
him in maybe he's speaking Spanish Portuguese and Spanish is very close very close it would be uh you know not
18:16
that far off but I'm sure he was like just giving him some Sage advice just he
18:23
is the guru of doing what Martinez does well you know he is the guy who invented that style so he's just probably giving
18:31
him props for what he's done and telling him to keep going but man it it was funny we were watching it with
18:37
Wilson and Wilson's like we're watching that little moment on TV and Wilson's like yeah he's just going he's just
18:44
going hey you can't win here I'm the king of Rio you can't win in real man it's okay
18:50
it's okay I'm the king of Rio it's all right you go somewhere else you'll win there I wonder how many like cars were
18:57
flipped over in the streets of I feel like people went hard last night yeah yeah they must have during during the
19:05
Pia fight yeah they were they were getting it ready yeah they they got the streets warmed up but yeah um Martinez
19:13
he's he's been super impressive like on in his what is it sixf fight win streak
19:19
that he had before this fight he TKO leg kicked two people yeah like that's
19:24
insane and that's and then he gets to fight he he he wins the ticket to fight
19:29
Jose AO he probably had Jose on his on his wall on his wall growing up oh my
19:34
God yeah wait how old is he everyone's young these days I know and that damn
19:40
broadcast team just loves pointing out the age discrepancies okay well he's 30 he looks young as [ __ ] but he's 30 at
19:47
least so but he would still probably have uh Jose he had a WC poster he had a
19:53
whack poster he called it WC d
20:00
sure cuz that was back when uh it was only on the Spanish channels do you
20:05
remember that I don't remember what channel I I've I've gone to a bunch of them yeah when we started watching it in
20:12
New York it would only be on the Spanish broadcast channels maybe that was just in the east coast yeah maybe but like
20:19
that was the only way you could watch wow yeah so we're like uh [ __ ] mios W is uh MO
20:30
interesante you you still keeping up your dualingo I see well you never know when you're going to go back to
20:36
Mexico they love putting me on Mexico City cards so we'll see and you're prepared I am she stays ready guys I'm
20:44
going be wearing this for the UFC note oh did you hear that they um what
20:50
did they they announced 306 uh Ali versus morab in the sphere no
20:57
way isn't that supposed to be isn't that supposed to be that uh I don't know it's International fight
21:04
week I thought wait no no noi is Mexican Independence state which I'm not sure which day that falls on but I think it's
21:11
late in the year like September or something I just so you could be right is that actually happening I know uh
21:18
morab was pushing for it but I didn't know if it was actually going to happen or not yeah they just announced it this
21:24
morning oh no way that's so cool yes 14th oh my brother's birthday I think
21:31
that is UFC no that has to be hey I love
21:36
Mor robs uh all the stuff that he's been doing to promote the fight like to bag
21:41
on Ali yes it's amazing like he was uh he he's basically saying that he's a
21:46
Mexican he's representing Mexico you see no they had the guys digging did you see
21:53
that no I didn't see that one oh my goodness show this one oh it's so ridiculous yeah morab is just going off
22:00
on social media but um he had this silly video where he was like we're gonna he
22:07
had a bunch of guys like a bunch of Mexican guys and he's speaking Spanish to them they're digging holes and he's
22:13
like we're gonna have to dig a bigger hole it's GNA be omali he's tall and they're like okay and he and he says
22:21
something something Alto blah blah blah like marava speaking Spanish in the video is great it's so great he's like
22:27
my favorite fighter more so with every stupid video he makes I love it yeah but
22:34
uh that's awesome I didn't know that that was actually uh announce so that's going to be fun oh maybe we should go we
22:42
text Brian right now we're putting in a request get me on the card or let me
22:48
hang out there both cuz it it's uh it's so cool looking hilarious I know he's
22:54
insane it's so cool looking the way the sphere is I wonder how they're going to like they can get really creative with
23:00
the way that they do like all the production and the the lights and stuff inside of the
23:10
sphere I want you turn it up so you can hear him speaking SP oh you got past the
23:15
Spanish part but I was really impressed with Mor Rob Spanish I was like you better like lean
23:23
into the joke I love that yeah so I'm pretty
23:29
uh Martinez will be fine he might be on that card you know he was repping Mexico pretty hard walking out to that um and
23:36
uh and he's he's just such a a world beater like I feel like Aldo is one of the few people who would have his number
23:43
because it's like uh when you're playing street fighter and you know you're you both pick the same character but one
23:49
person's a little better at playing it than you are so I feel like um everyone else he tools with that style I I think
23:57
so I mean I I don't think that it's any um it's going to set him back or anything like that I think it'll be a
24:02
good learning experience I'm sure it's frustrating I'm sure it hurts right now but I don't think that um it it one of
24:09
those losses that's detrimental to his his career and his trajectory yeah
24:14
trajectory trory you had it yeah you had it yeah need me thanks
24:22
girl oh man um yeah it was it was pretty awesome but yeah you you mentioned the
24:28
the age Gap thing what uh little notes because I was watching most of it well I was getting my hair done so it was on
24:34
mute but I didn't hear all the digs to age that were happening with the commentary so so many who was it
24:41
specifically well specifically to I I mean to any and everybody who was in their late 30s there was um uh Pelle oh
24:49
yeah who's 42 I think I think he's 41 or 42 um and they were they were just
24:55
saying like oh it looks like a 40-year-old fighting a 2 2-year-old I'm like get the [ __ ] out of here bro
25:01
Michelle is is tough as [ __ ] yeah like he's he's a vet he can hang in there it just wasn't his night yeah he has a
25:07
great record too it's not like he's been gone in there getting [ __ ] up like he doesn't fight that often and I think
25:12
that's more detrimental to his thousand AG for sure I think that's a great point and then they uh were talking about
25:19
kolina she fought the youngest girl on the card who's 22 oh and Carolina is 38
25:25
and they they referenced uh the speed of car kolina quite a few times but Carolina's never been a fast fighter no
25:33
you know she's it's not like she's lost a step and you know she's declining I think she's gotten better in her last
25:40
several fights ever since I submitted her she had stepped that grappling
25:45
up um anyways but I think that she's shown so
25:50
much improvement so I don't think it's it's her age I think that they maybe
25:56
could focus maybe that she is a slower fighter but quit trying to make it an
26:02
age thing well how many fights has karolina won uh since you submitted her
26:08
you know like they weren't talking about her age then and it's like I do hate when age becomes a a talk about else do
26:18
your research because we are of the more mature group of fighters in the UFC but
26:25
um karolina has been killing it uh against many Young Guns uh sylvana Gomez
26:32
oh wait no she's a little older but Vanessa deopa she's a little younger same with uh Diana Bel and um uh this
26:40
girl she's just tough you know she's tough little Brazilian chick um I
26:45
remember her fighting Yas mean and it was like a lot of back and forth it was
26:51
a it was a crazy fight you know I think uh did they get fight a night I think
26:56
yeah they got fight a night for that it was a crazy back and forth fight so yeah you're going to put somebody up against
27:02
uh somebody like that uh up against karolina she might not look as fresh as she did when she was fighting um you
27:10
know these girls who are a little uh not as good yeah there's fighting styles
27:16
there's body types there's you know some people are more coordinated than explosives some people are lower Center
27:21
gravity and some people a little bit longer lengthy and it just looks different when you put them together yeah and it's just frustrating it just
27:29
I'm like do your research focus on something else there are way more talking points talk about her adorable dogs for [ __ ] sake like talking about
27:37
her age only you know about her dogs adorable you you researched the hell of of her dogs um but this is kind of I I
27:45
was surprised that karolina was ranked 13 in going into this fight because the girls that she has beaten since she got
27:52
submitted by Jessica pen weren ranked you know they weren't ranked she got a
27:57
street going which is hard to do um but at the same time look at the level of
28:02
competition that you're fighting and um you know it it I won't be surprised if
28:09
uh this girl uh Yasmine or Yasmin is that how you say it Yasmin sure you just
28:15
ignore the first letter asmin I'm not sure if she's going to be ranked but she
28:20
probably will be after that when but it's just I don't know the rankings just
28:26
they always piss me off especially like the the top 15 yeah are are very
28:32
frustrating yeah well lup's lupy godinas uh the person that we both beat is
28:38
ranked above me now and I don't know how that happened it's weird some uh good
28:45
marketing and she's a great chick like she seems like really sweet or whatever and she's a gamer um but why would that
28:54
happen you know it it just is I think it's a popularity contest more anything
28:59
and a lot of times they look at age a lot of times they look at things like uh what is your longevity in the UFC and
29:07
certain people get ahead because of that and certain people don't this old [ __ ]
29:12
right here but it is what it is we just got to keep
29:17
going out there throwing down our Walkers stepping in that cage and fighting like Young
29:23
Bucks I'm all about that Yoda Style yod you know you get out of bed
29:29
and you're like oh yep yeah but once you warm up yep I can feel it but yeah once
29:34
you warm up you're doing Sumer Sals and uh throwing your your uh sa yeah
29:42
lightsaber all over the place May the 4th was yesterday too yes yeah adorable
29:48
throwback that was a nice one it's still it's still good it's um yeah when when I
29:54
wake up in the morning it it hurts it takes a little bit longer to to warm up and you know get warm lower back and
30:01
then once they cool down it it hurts it's a come down but it's cool though it's like uh
30:08
those uh TV shows where people have the boost up they can boost up and and they
30:14
feel like a superhero and then they come off of it and they're like I need to get that boost up again like that's what it
30:19
feels like warming up and fighting for us like when you're young you just feel like you could jump on the mats and go
30:26
you feel like you're made of rubber the entire time but we just we just need to warm our rubber up to we're good yeah
30:33
there's still plenty of elasticity in there yeah yeah just don't uh pull that rubber band too
30:39
fast the [ __ ] out out uh um there's a a few other crazy fights on that card what
30:46
did you think about uh Anthony Smith's fight that I walked into Wilson's house right as that was happening and I was
30:53
like what so I I picked him to win oh okay I did
31:01
um not by submission but just because he's a vet um you know he's a former champion and patrino is super tough he
31:09
he had a a big upset in his last fight and I I just didn't know
31:16
exactly if it was uh no he's like 11 now he's 11 and one or something like that and I forget who his last upset was but
31:22
it was a big one and he came on the scene super hot but I just didn't know if if he was well-rounded enough yeah to
31:30
like withstand that like that veteran status yeah because I didn't expect him to make a mistake that soon I think with
31:38
Anthony Smith whenever he gets one over on the Young Bucks it's when they get comfortable beating them up yeah he I
31:45
mean he does he does yeah he just lows them into false and like oh oh oh you're
31:50
oh you're killing me oh stop it stop it oh hello it's like a big dog with a puppy like their baby and they're
31:56
teaching them how to be t yeah that's exactly what he's like oh you got me that's such a great uh
32:03
analogy now I like him even more he's just a big dog big playful dog
32:10
um yeah that was uh so I think the odds were pretty crazy with that one too he
32:16
was an underdog in that fight right yeah yeah a huge Underdog and then if anyone
32:22
bet that he got a submission in the first round um I think it was plus 800 oh wait no
32:30
plus 12200 wow wow someone cashed out but it was Anthony
32:36
Smith he like slid it over to James cross like hey put up oh man just put
32:43
like you know few grand on that dude that must have felt good though because I feel like well obviously with the
32:49
betting knuts a lot of people were counting them out of that fight and he definitely looked like when they say oh
32:56
this is the older fighter he defin definitely look like the fighter with more uh cage Mouse in there just like
33:03
and I always look at the footwork you know and I look at my own footwork too and sometimes I'm like oh you need to
33:08
work on your footwork you have not been jump roping have you no no you need to
33:14
Sprints you need to get on them toes girl you're trying to save them knees yeah like we're not bending over this
33:20
fight no level changes we're not going to move too much we're just going to wait and hit that's
33:26
all we're doing counter es um but yeah you like I'm watching him and this guy
33:31
just looks so aggressive and so bouncy and light on his feet and Anthony Smith is just kind of like all right what's
33:37
gonna happen and I was so surprised that he shot him for that takedown like that was he's going to be kicking himself
33:44
forever for that and he pressed the takedown even though Anthony Smith had already secured an arm locked it around
33:54
his throat M and he continued to go down yeah so what do you do in that situation
34:01
if you get someone up because you kind of lifted him and then Anthony wrapped his legs around him and got that like
34:08
neck really secured what what is your reaction usually as the grappling expert
34:13
for me if that starts happening I'd probably press him against the cage and start trying to fight the hands yeah but
34:19
he when he lifted him up he didn't flare the legs so it gave Anthony Smith an opportunity to get his legs around him
34:25
and secure the guillotine um if you're doing that kind of big takedown and somebody's trying to secure your neck
34:30
you've got to pass the legs and you've got to land inside control and then start you know fighting the hands or you
34:36
can do the the uh what is it the Von crew or Von V flu yeah that Von yes he
34:45
did it too hey what's up o yeah you just you've got to fight the H so if if
34:52
that's happening initially you've got to like just fight the h yeah yeah it's
34:58
like even when it's kind of too late and they have their arm their legs wrapped
35:04
around you and you're going down as you're going down you kind of got to secure a little bit right yeah you got
35:09
to tripod up you got to fight the hand you got to start you know putting pressure cuz I uh I don't think he had
35:15
an arm in but you can still walk was arm in was it arm in yeah he yeah walked
35:22
right into that trap I'm like homie no you can't get subed like that in Brazil
35:28
braan car crash no you are going to get beat up in the locker room by your
35:34
coaches why would you do that no you'd be surprised there's a lot of Brazilians that that I see that do not have the
35:41
ground that you would think that they do yeah it's almost like it's assumed it's like how everyone assumes black people
35:47
can dance and sing can't you though no no so bad so bad I know I
35:55
know actually a lot of people have asked me like oh yeah you sing right I'm like
36:01
who [ __ ] do you think I am have you not gone to karaoke with you if you not seen
36:09
my post it's so funny I I do a good
36:14
impersonation of being able to dance but I can't dance I can find the
36:21
beat but if the move is too complicated the beat goes away real fast I'm just like oh [ __ ] [ __ ] what is happening I
36:29
don't know I think we've been pretty impressive with some Tik toks yeah it just takes practice it's not a natural
36:35
thing yeah yeah it doesn't just run through my blood like everyone assumes
36:40
but that's what you think about uh when I think Brazilian Fighters I'm like oh yeah they're definitely a black belt
36:46
that came out of the womb throwing up arm bars you know like that they know what's what it's all about and you're
36:52
right A lot of times you get surprised by that watch out Lana
36:57
for your [Laughter] belt I'm two weeks out I'm amped yeah
37:06
I'm a I'm ready to go yeah that was a you know the one fight I missed was the
37:12
craziest fight on the card which one the um uh Mel periera one uh dude I I saw
37:21
pictures I've seen highlights but I didn't see the full fight but I feel like that's all it was it was like 10 seconds um
37:28
the the Highlight was the fight oh I oh my God that that was insane that was
37:34
absolutely insane and I wanted to talk about that I'm sad that you didn't get to see the well what happened just tell
37:39
me what happened all it all happened every every all the things anything you
37:45
can do in a video game happened in that fight ooh tell me more he he came in
37:51
with a really hard Hard Punch like a little Blitz forward took him down
37:57
instead of you know playing with the legs he back he twist back flipped over
38:03
landed in like north south and then oh my God I forgot what happened it was so
38:09
he so fast he jumped up and got the guillotine right yeah he jumped up and got the guillotine um it was it was
38:15
insane that's so cool it was insane and there was like a lot well I mean not a lot but um they were looking to see if
38:22
it was a controversial like an legal strike because when he
38:28
twisting back flipped oh did he he landed his um his knee Shin kind of hit
38:37
like in this area oh and they they ended up you know giving Michelle the the
