is that the Bus Song again Yes I do know the song I do know the
0:13
song I just didn't remember that it was like a Six Flags thing that's the only reason I know the song is Six Flags
0:19
commercial did you listen to it since then I did watch the commercial is that
0:26
that guy was so creepy yeah he was a little creepy he was really creepy and I was mad because it took me like a year
0:31
to realize that it wasn't an old person it was a young person in in an old man
0:37
Old Man costume old man face sounds ages to
0:43
me he was moving though I should have known better um and we're back hey and
0:49
we're both dual bits up yes set dual bits brought to you by dual bits two
0:54
straws in the house on a very special fight week for a certain somebody it's F
1:02
week it's me yeah I'm excited um watching fights yesterday was a little
1:07
more stressful than normal were you like reacting to things in certain ways yes
1:13
oh and the fights were really good too they were there were so many good fights I was exhausted once they got to the
1:18
main but like so is Derrick Lewis like there's more yeah why why why did he
1:25
knock him out yet it's the longest three rounds in my life let me tell you um but
1:32
dude I'm I'm so jealous that I didn't get to fight in front of a crowd like St
1:38
Louis or I'm not going to be able to you know like that crowd is insane they were
1:43
pumped up was that the first time that they were ever in St Louis I think they went there once before like almost 10
1:49
years ago I think it was like 2018 or 16 or something like that yeah they were itching for it yeah they needed it they
1:55
wanted it get that fixed bring it back cuz it's a big you know like there's a lot of fans out
2:01
there and there's a lot of fighters from there uh Charles Johnson energy he's uh
2:07
one of the people that are our manager manages and he was second fight on the card the card was packed already so it
2:14
was one of those like local shows that felt like a big show it was really cool and then um Buckley man he put on a
2:22
performance of his life man I so I got to spend a little bit of time with him
2:27
when he fought in atletic city so now I'm of course emotionally invested in him so it was it was extra hard to watch
2:34
that fight yeah it was so scary that guy was huge she ate those knees like they
2:40
were freaking cookies just like well you know he got those big old bosoms right
2:46
he put his chest into those I need to get me some implants that are buckly size I feel like part of
2:52
his training was probably like at a football like compound with those like dummy things that you run in like what
2:59
are those things it looked like a football tackle yeah he he put his chest into it and every time that happened I
3:05
was so scared that it was going to sneak its way up to his knees but uh the bosoms protected him kep in a good area
3:12
yeah one of those knees was like was a pretty good one maybe it was the first one yeah that he that he tackled into
3:19
but how demoralizing though to just land the knee perfectly like you landed on
3:24
the pads and then just feel your legs flare up right afterwards like that's
3:29
sus no it is you're literally throwing everything at somebody and they just walk through it mhmh and he had the
3:35
perfect game plan for this guy but I do feel like someone else is going to try this game plan and they're going to get
3:41
a eat in the face it is not going to work you got to be built like Buckley for it yes you got to have the
3:49
chesticles you have to have the big chesties you have to have the
3:54
explosiveness um and you just have to have that grit too you have to have that uh
4:00
um composure in there and he was very composed he was very uh confident all
4:06
week uh the buildup to it too like that that was crazy the amount of hate that
4:11
he was getting from the usca stand fans man and he walked out with their flag
4:17
and he walked out with their flag I I thought that was a really classic thing to do it was very sweet I thought it was cool because it's like hey we're we're
4:24
all Brothers here at the end of the second round they were slapping hands you know hugging like yeah this is a good fight so so it was it was uh it was
4:31
nice to see all that come together especially after all the monkey comments oh I didn't hear those on uh on every
4:38
UFC post dealing with Buckley versus uh R what what is it rabo rusov
4:46
rabv yes rabv want to wow I was not aware RV yeah
4:53
um yeah there is a lot of I mean when whenever you're dealing with these like certain countries certain areas they
4:59
don't they they're very loose with the racism out there they don't have I guess
5:07
the same history that we have where we have to be very political correct about
5:13
everything but they just they were just going ape [ __ ] literally with with the
5:18
uh emoticons and the gifts and and it's the whole country they really get behind their countrymen too so it it can be
5:24
very overwhelming when you fight somebody from usbekistan or Russia or um
5:30
where where's the other big one where's everybody from um I can't think I
5:36
haven't had a coffee what are you talking about oh the place that uh the kazakstan thank you you knew you knew
5:43
what I was talking about yeah with the hat if you fight anywhere with a with a cool hat then you're going to have a
5:49
bunch of [ __ ] countrymen behind you saying rude [ __ ]
5:55
especially when they're fighting a Black Fighter so I thought that he dealt with that whole uh come up the promotion of
6:01
the fight very very well um the postf fight speech
6:07
though what was your take on that I don't I don't remember a lot of the post-fight speech just him calling out
6:14
McGregor I mean yeah that's what I'm talking about oh was that I mean that was the whole post fight speech and him
6:20
talking about his grandmother which made me very teite it was very very sweet oh yeah that part was sweet I forgot about
6:27
that part because afterwards he called all of Conor McGregor's family hoes you ho you like how you
6:36
gonna talk about your grandmother and then say you a ho you a ho you a ho your mama rais a ho right after you talk so
6:43
sweetly about your grandmother likey of being a cage fighter ah I
6:49
guess you just never know you know never know what we can throw out we just got
6:55
so many uh sometimes we we can be completely transformational and sometimes s we can be you know we're we
7:02
just are what we are this why we punch people in the face for a living um I was so impressed with Buckley's performance
7:08
though um the ground game too like when uh rabo was on the ground the
7:15
commentators were talking up his ground game and like oh he has to be careful this this and this he didn't try to do
7:21
anything down there he tried to go for an armar at the end of the first but it
7:26
was it was not it was not going to happen he finally accepted that he
7:31
wasn't getting up like the the ref wasn't going to stand him up and that's what it looked like his game plan was
7:36
just double over hooks on Buckley's arms and wait for a standup and uh instead of
7:42
having the active guard that the commentators were talking about going for submissions throwing up I don't know
7:48
they were like oh he's good at kamaras I'm like we when's it gonna happen but the
7:54
arm bar was a little scary he did throw that up pretty fast I'm surprised he didn't do more with that especially in
8:00
the last round yeah um I also thought that it
8:05
could have been stopped in a couple instances and [ __ ] Keith Peterson man he was just watching and waiting he
8:11
almost got hit in one of those moments he had to Elbow frame his way out of
8:17
getting smacked in the face I bet Dominic Cruz is watching that like
8:22
yes he probably threw an extra Grand at Buckley to to accidentally throw some
8:29
spinning [ __ ] Keith Peterson's way better be on your p's and q's make
8:34
sure you don't have that drink before this fight uh but yeah he was he was waiting
8:41
for people to die that night was he the one who was in hoopers uh Chase Hooper fight or was that a different super too
8:48
dude yeah he he doesn't care he does not care about people's lives I mean maybe
8:54
that's just what happens after Dominic Cruz gives you [ __ ] for stopping a fight early this is Dominick Cruz's fault
9:01
thanks Dom for all those extra concussions going around thanks a lot Dom good job Dom
9:08
luckily would have got in a bonus if it wasn't for you oh so selfish yeah so
9:14
selfish come on man but uh yeah he was watching that fight closely but didn't stop it Buckley almost seemed like he
9:21
wanted uh rabo to suffer a little bit when he got to mount I get that but then
9:27
he got rolled over yeah and short legs going for a triangle yeah I I really I was wanting
9:34
it to happen I was like yo I'm with you like I would maybe do the same thing
9:39
just to prove a point but then it doesn't work and you're like ah should just posted it up and punched him
9:44
Buckley's body type is meant for top he is meant for a top game maybe maybe a
9:50
little uh you know smothering too that's his body type as well definitely
9:56
pressure pass yeah give him a little mother's milk just yeah little shoulder
10:02
pressure on the back yeah like put it right in the mouth and the nose area so he can't
10:07
breathe suck on that yeah but he he did a great job I was really I I really
10:13
enjoyed watching just the skill versus skill um it was a very scary opponent I
10:18
think he's going to knock out the next guy who tries to take him down like that and it just goes to show how good of a
10:24
fighter that Buckley is now yeah he's he's making waves at 170 I'm really
10:29
excited about it and it's crazy because he seems like not big for 170 either he's
10:36
tiny he is he was Tiny for 185 and I'm so happy he went down but
10:43
yeah but he still seems kind of under side I mean and he's he makes up for it with his explosiveness and his power and
10:49
athleticism and all this stuff personality and his huge personality maybe that's why he seem so big until
10:55
you standing next to them then you're like oh you little I no you're not that big he's thick though he's definitely
11:02
thick he takes up a lot of space Barrel chested yes yes so uh so that that goes
11:07
a long way I mean look at Mike Tyson he made his whole career that just being like the smaller more explosive like
11:14
kind of peekaboo fighter and Buckley has a lot of that in him I mean I saw him use a little I saw a little little Mike
11:21
Tyson little wa yeah it was it was cool to watch yeah
11:27
that was definitely my main event yeah it was that's I mean that's why I was so exhausted because those three rounds
11:33
were tense and then Derrick Lewis walks out and I'm like oh no we got another
11:39
one that I'm also emotionally invested in because I love drick Lewis I love watching him fight love you love his I
11:46
was just going to say you love his post fight more than anything it's a little
11:52
creepy for me I love it it's it's gives me a little it creeps me out a little
11:57
bit it does it makes me slightly uncomfortable I mean it goes perfectly with the nickname
12:02
though yeah I mean he looks like a black beast when he does it yeah coming out from under the bed at night more like a
12:09
sea lion to me like a really angry sea lion we used to call it the Shamu
12:16
yeah like give me a fish I did the trick give me a fish and then I mean he added
12:22
he added to his postf fight Antics with uh mooning the audience oh man I was I
12:27
mean if you're going to if you're going to Moon like Moon the camera come on man like commit fully commit he turned
12:33
around I don't know he did it on purpose I think he chickened out I think he thought about like the huge percentage
12:39
he could get fined for and that's what made him not do it which rightfully so I'm not mad at you I'm just saying like
12:48
you you know could have just like fullon done it but at the same time the camera was ready to cut away like once he
12:54
started going to his pants the camera went whoop everybody in the control room guys
13:01
guys stand by Fe left something's happening yeah they
13:08
left ESPN and Disney will not be happy for this oh man they got out of there
13:14
quick they like zoom out um and then when he mooned the camera he he
13:19
definitely yeah he saw where the camera was and he turned away and mo the audience but they got to see it I know
13:26
and they loved it they did they loved it they de um what his postf fight speech
13:32
was pretty funny too he was just like ah man I'm getting too old for this
13:37
[ __ ] which is rude you are one month younger than me you better man up and
13:42
make that money so much youth left after that performance too like uh it was a great
13:48
performance and I mean yeah he was he was really um resilient because he was in trouble
13:56
and he showed some new wrinkles to his game like he came out with like two takedown attempts yes and he off
14:02
balanced yeah I forgot about that yeah I did not I was like who is this man dude he hit like a judo throw he got an
14:09
outside trip he messed up one but it doesn't matter he was trying it he was trying in
14:15
a main event with a lot of people watching um I showing wrinkles to your
14:21
game when you have that much pressure on you is the ultimate sign of you ain't
14:27
too young for this [ __ ] or too old for this sh stop complaining get in your L Lamborghini and be happy number three
14:34
stop it [ __ ] out of here too old for this [ __ ] you can't turn down that kind of
14:39
Main Event money how many they said he he has like over 10 Main Events yeah
14:45
that's crazy like pretty much all of his fights mhm are either like co-main or main event well he has that classic uh
14:53
heavyweight um thing going for him where you know there's a good chance he's going to knock someone
14:59
first round knockout and that's what people love to see especially at the top of the card when you're too tired and
15:07
drunk to watch a fight I don't want to watch a technical Showdown right now I just want to see
15:14
someone get hurt and that's the perfect place to put Derrik enter Derrick Lewis
15:19
yes get in there buddy close out the show do what you do best and it was
15:25
funny uh his coach actually said that at the right before knocked the guy out it almost felt like he was playing with him
15:32
trying out new things you oh let's see what happens and then when he fluffed that takedown ended up on bottom for
15:38
most of the fight or most of that round his coach was like all right back to your bread and butter do what you do
15:45
best now get the [ __ ] out yeah he did it he did it so so quickly and easily it
15:50
was it was awesome to see it was like were you just playing with your food what were you doing like you know we're
15:55
tired get it done get it done we want to see it happen that knockout was so
16:02
brutal it was and I mean hats off taso like he was he was playing a really smart game against a very crafty veteran
16:08
yeah so I can't I can't like you know go and not give him credit where it's due
16:14
because he was he was bringing it and it was a huge step up for him yes I mean he
16:19
uh was calling him a Brazilian cab driver driver come on man you already
16:25
knocked him out like you don't got to do him like that yeah but it's it's also
16:32
you know I I feel like he felt the disrespect of getting a matchup like that um well they wanted them to win yes
16:38
they wanted them to win they wanted to get you a new Lamborghini but at the same time you got to let them know their
16:43
place like hey hey little guy you're not there yet there's levels there's levels you'll get there just not today you'll
16:50
grow from this I'm here to make you better you're welcome go back to the drawing board we
16:56
can train together you'll be better from this yeah no he
17:01
had like this nice high guard that was stopping a lot of Lewis's punches and stuff on the beginning um he did a good
17:09
job of taking advantage of that fluff taked down and that I think it was the second round get on top and it looked
17:15
kind of scary there for a second Lou stayed composed he was able to you know
17:20
he I don't think he got right up but he was able to stop the damage from happening I think he reversed it too he
17:26
yeah he's good at staying Cal like when he ends up on bottom he he doesn't you
17:31
know he doesn't like be explosive right away he stays safe he keeps his frame
17:38
he's patient he buys his time and then you know he makes his move yeah that's like classic Derrick Lewis well you know
17:45
he fought um in Brazil when when I fought and one big thing I noticed about
17:51
uh his physique was he was a little more cut in Brazil and I think that might have hurt him maybe I think that might
17:58
have hurt him you know that drill that uh J Flo Justin Flores makes us do on the on the ball on the blow up ball and
18:07
you have to like use your knees to stay balanced on top of the ball and it's really easy to fall off of that thing
18:14
that's basically drik lose his stomach yeah and if he has a six-pack it's way
18:19
easier to stay balanced on the ball it's like if the ball was deflated but when the ball is inflated it's a lot harder
18:27
to say it's a bow sup ball you move one way and boom out of there every time he
18:33
gets up there's a roll first and then he stands I think I I figured out the uh
18:39
secret to Derrick loose's ability to just get up the belly inflation yes next
18:45
time you have a sixpack just push that thing out real quick yeah push it out
18:50
and then roll then you'll be good that's the only thing keeping them down in the Almeida fight yeah I mean plus Almeida
18:56
you know is kind of good keeping people down yeah but I want to see bosu ball
19:03
belly Derrick Lewis versus Al no I I want to see it I I think there's definitely a chance especially if he had
19:08
a fight Camp yeah fair enough if he had a fight Camp he had the uh he had the
19:14
indurance he had the belly he had all the things that I heard he was sick too
19:20
he wasn't trying to make excuses but he was sick during that if he had all that uh you know Under Wraps classic Derrick
19:27
Lewis going into a fight against alme I'd like to see what happens in that one no I would too and I mean I think that's
19:32
one of those fights that they could potentially run back in a little bit yeah just um just because uh elme lost
19:38
his last one um and drick lucus um you know won his pre or his last one so I
19:45
feel like there's an opportunity that they could definitely Collide again under different circumstances and see what that fight would really look like
19:52
yeah especially since leis has that win over ctis Blaze too yeah it's MMA math is so weird you know it never it never
19:59
adds up why you like that MMA I know it just doesn't it's like it's like the
20:05
rankings they just just never makes sense makes sense it's
20:10
weird um speaking of rankings we had a ranked strawweight fight in the prelims
20:18
did you watch that one um Tisha hennington versus tabichi Tisha penon
20:25
who's that she's a new girl on the black oh making her UFC debut yeah yeah um what
20:33
did you think of that one because I was well it was a super close fight I'm not
20:38
going to say robbery but it's a it was a hard one to judge for me because all
20:44
that RI did well had nothing to do with damage I know um I I honestly thought
20:52
that Tisha was going to get it because she was out voluming striking and
20:58
damaging mhm and I will give credit to to REI in the second round she and the
21:05
second and the third round um she had a lot of of pressure Against the Cage which was her game plan but I don't
21:11
think that one's fights anymore no in the second round she did no damage it was literally just trying to pressure
21:17
her and take her down MH and in the third she started you know adding adding
21:23
some little strikes to it but wasn't damaging and as soon as Tisha got space she was blitzing in with her uh you know
21:29
Taekwondo karate esque blitzes that she does so well that the judges loveh um so it was it was strange to me
21:38
that the pressure Against the Cage outweighed the volume yeah and the
21:43
strikes and the Damage it's just it's really hard to see what what the refs are seeing I mean
21:49
uh what the judges are seeing it sometimes it just didn't make sense to me and when they said it was a split
21:55
decision I was quite confused I I I think that second round was the one that
22:05
everyone was mad about um yeah it it was just weird like Tisha obviously won the
22:12
first one yeah I think it was a lot of back and forth but Tisha was doing what she does better than what RI does which
22:18
is like a mirror almost a mirror version of Tisha what Tisha does better though
22:24
is she manages range a lot better yeah she she manages that distance and
22:29
Tabitha isn't quite there yet she's still young in the game she's still learning and honing her skills and figuring out what works best for her
22:35
body type in that division um I just yeah I just think Tisha does Tisha
22:40
better yeah no definitely I think the Optics were um were good for REI in one
22:46
of those rounds where like Tisha would come in hard and then RI would like kind
22:51
of post on her head and tia is swiming with the punches and then that with the
22:57
pressure I think okay yeah I can see one of those rounds for RI but when it comes to damage you could have scored all
23:04
three Tisha without being like a crazy person yes you know without being like her mom you could have scored all three
23:11
for I always got to throw that one in she's crazy she's insane but uh yeah I I
23:18
was I was really surprised that REI won it and then I looked at the media stores
23:23
cuz that's always where I go when when I see a weird split decision and they were split right down the middle like most
23:30
people thought that or half thought that REI got I forget which rounds but two
23:35
and three I guess and then the other half that Tisha got like one and two so it was um yeah it was a very close one
23:43
it was a rough fight to take coming off of pregnancy too she was out for what two years yeah yeah 2022 maybe like a
23:51
year and a half but uh you know she was different looking when she was pregnant
23:57
like some people like they get pregnant you can't really tell until they're like right at the end of it but she was big
24:03
like she she put on a lot of weight so to see her get right back down to that little skinny minis version of herself
24:09
was pretty impressive um in in quick time too and uh you know they gave her a
24:15
matchup that is kind of like that matchup last week where we had uh Aldo
24:22
versus um yes yes
24:28
is it Rodriguez wait wait I got my notes right here
24:34
um yeah we had the Aldo fight the Jose Aldo fight yeah the Jose
24:41
Aldo fight and he was basically uh fighting airor version of himself and uh
24:47
this was kind of the same thing he had a girl fighting uh someone who kind of does similar things to her with
24:55
the kind of run in run out Style but she has more of a takedown heavy approach
25:02
with it like that her striking is more of a setup for takedowns and it was just
25:07
uh disappointing to see the judges give credit to a takedown that wasn't scored
25:13
when you know there was no strikes being landed within the
25:18
controlling yeah and I feel like I mean if you wanted to argue the third round there was Tak down or there was grind
25:25
Martinez Martinez Rodriguez Martinez was killing me I was like God damn it I know
25:30
this guy I really like him Jonathan Martinez yes similar very simar probably
25:37
cousins F probably Rodriguez the rodri and the Martinez's are good friends yes
25:43
they are close neighbors I I feel like what happened in
25:49
the third round for me was their takeown attempts kind of canel each other out because Tisha had a really good reversal
25:56
to the charge that Tabby Tabitha came in with um and she had like kind of two
26:01
throws and they weren't solid takedowns but she off balanced her and got her to
26:07
touch the ground man I was so sad for her too I was like get on top that'll steal it it'll steal it like
26:14
get on her and it's just a little bit just a little bit more commitment to it and she would have had those throws but
26:21
see in my mind it should have canceled out any kind of takedown attempt yeah that taba that okay we're even there and
26:26
then the strikes make the difference MH that's just where my mind goes I mean maybe you should be a judge I'm going to
26:32
be a [ __ ] judge these guys don't know what the [ __ ] they're watching watch out yeah there are a lot of close fights on
26:39
this card uh one got fighted a night um it was uh what was his name Gaff versus
26:48
uh Waters mhm I believe that was an interesting one that was the one with
26:55
the hugely blatant illegal knee yes that nobody like we're still not talking
27:01
about we're still not talking about Waters yeah golf got kned in the chest
27:06
almost it looked like the neck it looked like the head they didn't show me enough angles to really settle on where that
27:13
knee landed but the ref was just like you're fine keep going I'm like he
27:18
might not be he might be [ __ ] up that [ __ ] hurt me from my
27:24
couch and and it was just like kind of like swep under the rug we're like you
27:29
know what the ref didn't call it we're just going to pretend that it didn't happen and it's not going to affect the scorecards whatsoever we are living in
27:37
real life WWE yeah like someone judge yeah we we
27:43
throw in chairs in the cage now you tap your corner in oh [ __ ] yeah let's go let's go get your finger
27:50
in between the cage get in get in get in take extra long to leave the cage you
27:56
know might a double team double team your opponent real quick I'm for it yeah yeah they do that in Russia
28:04
honestly yeah they must I'm pretty sure they do that there they must that's probably uh they probably do it in
28:09
usbekistan Kazakhstan one of those one of those STS
28:15
um yeah so that that fight was pretty crazy there was a lot of back and forth there um I thought that golf was winning
28:23
like towards the end but I could see it go either way like it was just just a lot of close fights like it wasn't I
28:32
don't know if there was there were any robberies on the card but there were a lot of really close fights and I just
28:37
lean towards the other guy like I felt like I wasn't on the same page as the judges with a lot of those no I hear
28:43
that I I was I was conflicted with that fight too yeah and I think it was just
28:48
also the illegal need was just really standing out in my mind I was like he should be down a point yeah that would
28:54
change the whole thing like if he if they had pointed him it would be either a draw or um yeah or he might have won
29:01
it just because the judges in their head would be thinking well he got kneat in the face so let's give him this round
29:06
too like the power of suggestion you know you've suffered enough we're
29:12
helping you out yeah yeah yeah you know what you won that one that was that was rough it was a really exciting fight
29:18
yeah I mean they kind of threw caution to the wind and they they were they were going for that 50k after the first round
29:24
it looked like they had already been in three yeah yeah it did it absolutely did
29:30
and and they were um I think it was Waters that was starting to show like a lot of fatigue too and he needed um you
29:37
know to create a lot of space but he was still in it still throwing back really like using his range really well keeping
29:43
those long punches uh to keep gof Jeff goof goof away I think I was
29:50
calling I think I heard them saying goof okay and then I am going to trust the commentators even though I shouldn't
29:56
have in the wec days I think it was just that you were watching the Spanish channel so they were pronouncing oh
30:03
maybe his name in a Spanish way but I also think that the commentators
30:09
who uh started commentating in the UFC after watching his tape called him Josie
30:15
Aldo too nobody asked him that happens a lot like only recently because I I was
30:22
working um you know like the ESPN desk for a while and there were a couple
30:28
times where it didn't happen but then suddenly they started giving us sound bites of how to say each Fighter's name
30:35
like the fighter would record them saying their own name and then they send it to us and sometimes it still just
30:41
sounded like gibberish like you don't know what you try put the accent that they spoken into it yeah
30:47
like uh I don't know you know like yeah yeah exactly it
30:53
would it would still sound kind of hard to pronounce but at least you have an idea of where go with each syllable so I
31:00
feel like they didn't do that in the very beginning they were just like ah this is how they say it and then go with it but someone commented that it was
31:09
definitely something that happened it wasn't a Shazam moment where everyone
31:14
just thought that something happened and then it never existed you've heard of that right Mandela Mandela Mandela effect
31:22
yeah that thing yeah yeah no it's crazy like Fruit of the Loom and the like some
31:28
pizza logo all this stuff it's like it trips me out because I absolutely remember that Fitness guy with a bandan
31:34
on now of a sudden he doesn't have a [ __ ] bandana he just has a really big forehead huh all sorts of weird things
31:39
from my childhood I've noticed have disappeared and I'm like are they just like playing with us are they just like
31:46
planting it on the media now no it's the Multiverse yeah that's all it is Multiverse yeah Multiverse in action
31:53
some time hopping Dimensions it's not even realizing well there a lot of these
31:58
could have been scored wins in the Multiverse too or draws or you know someone could have gotten DED for an
32:04
illegal knee um another one that was kind of controversial in my eyes was the
32:12
uh Chase Hooper versus Bev yes borchev okay so every time
32:21
Hooper fights I feel so bad cuz I'm like I can't believe his parents signed a waiver for him to fight a grown man in a
32:28
cage and I get really upset but he actually came out this time I still felt the same way but he actually looked like
32:34
he's you know put on some like man muscles he's like he's growing into his body he looked like a a real life boy
32:42
this time like a real life man like he had turned 18 still fighting somebody
32:47
way more Gruff and manly than him but definitely like definitely a little bit less
32:55
uncomfortable for me to watch now it reminds me of uh when Adam had one of
33:00
his first fights and he was only like 24 at the time but he went bald at like 21
33:07
and he had this huge beard and he was fighting a guy who kid who was like 18
33:12
and all the kids friends were like oh you fighting the old man you fighting the old man but [ __ ] 24 you know and
33:21
then uh borchev he was uh I think he was what 30 30 something 32 or something and
33:28
Chase super is only about like six or seven years younger than him but he just looks like such a little baby he looks
33:34
so young he really does he's such a little baby little baby face but uh he came out there like a man too he fought
33:41
like a man he hit like a man um knocked him down like he was a grown man yeah
33:47
that overhand that he landed was so um so clean and it's almost one of those
33:52
moments where the striker is fighting a Grappler and they're just like don't [ __ ] you
33:59
where did that come from you're not supposed to do that you're a Grappler that was not in your tape no no no what
34:04
are you doing adding to your game yeah it was it was a really nice Evolution there and um man his ground game is just
34:11
phenomenal it was so many levels uh ahead of bevs he did a great job of
34:17
surviving but I was so disappointed in the way that the fight ended um that was
34:22
another Keith Peterson let them Let Die I'm pretty sure god dude what are you do
34:27
I was on your side eth Peterson I was on your side risking people's lives out
34:33
here just to prove a point with Dominick Cruz oh my goodness well uh it wasn't
34:38
the fact that the fight kept going because he did a good job of surviving it could have been stopped I wouldn't
34:43
have been mad if it gotten stopped but when it did get stopped it was deep in a
34:50
DARS but the guy was looking for where to push I saw that too it didn't
34:57
I understand that you know there's no rules to how many times a person should tap to end a fight however um I didn't
35:06
see that as a tap no I saw him trying to find a leverage Point um to to fight off
35:13
a tight choke yeah cuz your head is pointing a separate way from the body you have to get your hands somewhere on
35:19
the hips and he found something and was like okay that's not where I have to go
35:24
and then they stopped the fight I felt like especially with blood choke you can give it a little time like you can wait
35:31
until they do if they do a fandom tap or like a one-handed tap you could wait for
35:36
them to do the freakout tap before you break the fight because you don't know exactly what that gesture was or you ask
35:44
him like a lot of refs will say like are you okay give me a thumbs up like give me give me something a little bit more
35:50
communication and for him to let it goes so long while the man is being mounted and like punched and punched repeated
35:59
lumped up that is like that was a lacrosse ball size lump that was huge
36:04
but for him to repeatedly let him eat so many strikes and punches and then like take the submission like right off the
36:11
bat it just it it it it doesn't even out to me didn't compute that was like MMA
36:18
math MMA ref MMA ref math why'd you do that man after all that time um yeah
36:25
that was that was a rough one to watch but you can't deny that chase Hooper had an awesome performance he probably would have won the fight absolutely um it just
36:32
sucks to take that away from Bev he was defending it probably would have gone to decision if he had kept his defense up
36:39
like that or TKO um but you want to let it play out you don't want to have
36:44
outside things affect what actually happens I mean you let it play out that long might as well let it go a little
36:49
bit longer just sit back and relax you weren't doing anything earlier chill
36:54
just do what you were doing yeah and stay out the way oh man oh man um I was real sad about the
37:04
Terence mckin fight yeah and I mean I feel like the the commentary Des just kind of like set
37:12
him up for that they were like he either knocks somebody out or he gets knocked
37:17
out and yeah it was like a coin toss yeah I mean if you look at his uh recent
37:23
wins and losses is kind of what happens and it's a shame because at a certain point you saw mcken start
37:30
to reel things in and start to be more um I guess uh good with his energy
37:37
management not rushing in uh in this fight it didn't really seem like he
37:43
rushed in it just seemed like he started fast and uh uh REO viix reox was ready
37:50
for it that first knee that he threw when mckin changed levels for a takedown
37:56
was really well timed they just they you can tell that they were working at in the gym the reflexes
38:02
were there he nailed him there and then when the head kick happened it was just enough to put him out on his feet but
38:08
yeah he I mean I I feel like he just kind of it wasn't a wild punch it wasn't
38:14
like he threw a wild hook he just didn't like get his guard up fast enough in time it was a fast kick it was well
38:19
placed well timed yeah it was uh I think he was kind of like fading backwards and throwing a check Hook and the kick just
38:26
came over the top so I don't it wasn't rushing in it wasn't being wild it was just I think it was just accumulative
38:33
damage you know like he the the guy had good timing he landed clean a lot of
38:39
times you land clean and it doesn't knock someone out and this time it did so was
38:45
unfortunate Terence mckin gives me the fa same feelings that chase Hooper does like he's a kid yeah you know he's a kid
38:52
he's aggressive he's really good at a lot of things but then people can take advantage of the things that uh you know
38:58
he's a little green with or the things that still make him a kid like his aggression or or just like his ability
39:05
just go for things he he's the YOLO fighter you know he just doesn't give a [ __ ] he's like I'm here to fight and um
39:13
yeah kudos to you for getting in there again I know you'll be back stronger but uh yeah that was a coming out part for
39:20
party for estabon rovix be pronouncing his name better in
39:25
the future after that performance um any other
39:31
fights stand out um my favorite fight of the night oh was uh farara versus
39:37
rebecky o yeah that fight was so exciting to me so excited yeah um and I
39:45
mean I I really liked even though he did take damage in the first round um I
39:52
really liked how farara was patient like especially with such an explosive
39:58
dangerous fighter and I me he was dangerous like till the end even even when rebecky was like you know bloodied
40:05
up and and tired from all the stuff he was still like you could like hear and feel the power from the TV which is like
40:14
it's here like like kind of kind of made me scared a little bit Yeah but I loved
40:20
what Fara was doing he just showed how much of a veteran he is and he used his jab really well in the first round to
40:25
keep him off um he and ended up getting knocked down which you know it happens when you're going against a big scary
40:31
Striker like that somebody was really explosive but I just loved his grappling transitions I loved that he just started
40:38
like changing the momentum in the second and the third round and like taking the fight back yeah it was it was a really
40:43
exciting fight for me and I love the grappling exchanges yeah and I love the head kicks because at first I was like
40:49
man these head kicks are going to get him in trouble because the guy's pressure was so heavy and every time he was kicking he was moving backwards but
40:56
then towards the third round I think you can see his arms were a little re reev
41:02
kicks I call him rebecky rebeck yeah I could be way off rebeck's arms were were
41:08
down here he was Yoho hoing um in the third round and I think it's because of all the kicks to his forearms people
41:15
forget even though someone's throwing a head kick uh it's doing damage when you block it and the more damage you take on
41:22
those forearms the lower your arms are going to get uh you can you can break the forearm you can numb it
41:27
so he definitely put in the work in the early rounds and it paid off in the end and then his eyes were swollen like
41:35
crazy both of his eyes were swollen yeah so in the second round in the second
41:41
round the rap decides to stop the [ __ ] fight ah that would have been a knockout right there it would have been
41:46
a knockout it completely changed the momentum of the fight because robc rebecky came back even stronger like he
41:53
he did it was like a Apollo Costa moment don't kick him in the
41:58
nuts he's just going to make you you just gave him you just gave him time to like compose himself because he was hurt
42:06
mhm I'm like who like are you guys friends are you guys from the same town what is Happ in this one it wasn't Keith
42:13
Peterson had a day off of [ __ ] up for this was it Josh I think it might have
42:19
been uh the guy with the with the mustache he looks like the guy from
42:25
vep Mike from beep it might have been that guy um but I'll have to look at it I didn't write down his name but yeah I
42:32
was really confused by that too it was so unnecessary yeah like he wasn't he wasn't gushing he wasn't I mean he was
42:38
hurt but that wasn't complaining that he couldn't see exactly exactly and it was
42:44
right in the middle of an exchange that was about to put him out yes like he was still up against the fence F was like
42:52
bucking on him throwing combinations yeah that was just enough uh of a breath
42:57
of fresh air for him to survive that round yes but I'm happy he got the uh
43:03
the TKO at the end with what was it like 10 seconds left yeah yeah good for him
43:08
he still got that finish and was able to get that bonus from that yeah because this is another guy that you know he
43:14
hasn't fought in a while and he's up in age and like so it's just it's just such
43:19
um a like uh what is it you put such a magnifying glass on on these topics of
43:25
right the last time they fought the consistency of competition and then the age so they just like put a magnifying
43:31
glass on it but they weren't really talking about it when he was winning
43:37
M I know H funny how age wasn't a factor here I know H or in the Aldo fight or in
43:45
the uh Derek Lewis fight interesting weird
43:51
yeah next time watch tape on Carolina
43:57
H yeah that was a great fight I I really enjoyed that one I loved like uh again
44:02
it was another one where the uh the guy who lost also made the fight as great as it was he was just such a Powerhouse and
44:09
just kept coming forward kept hurting him even when you thought he was out like it was it was a really fun one to
44:16
watch I'm trying to see if I could see who the ref was but it doesn't say it on here it's Josh EMT you're safe you're
44:23
safe for now Josh EMT was it Josh EMT I don't want don't quote me on that that just popped into my
44:30
head I'm not even sure who that is neither am I I told you that name just
44:35
popped into my head I don't even know if he's a real person is he a fighter who is he I mean yeah the uh emit is a
44:45
fighter I'm like wait what what time is it it's early it's too
44:51
early and I can't find it so whatever it's not it's not important um Gary
44:58
copelan that's who the ref was ah he's he's Stewart was the one who watched the
45:04
illegal knee in the in the waters golf fight uh Gary Copeland is who we call
45:11
him steroid ref or mini Brock mini Brock B toad yeah yeah yeah Team Alpha
45:21
ref what I like to call him too he's a little pocket sized meatball
45:27
um yeah so he's he's the guy who was watching that who decided to jump in
45:33
there oh man uh what did you think about Carlos olberg I feel like people aren't
45:39
really talking about that fight I know but I think we should save it for our exclusive content portion because it's
45:44
about that time yes we should see y'all later we'll see on the other side
