1:38
don't like little pecs especially the kind where you can like hear like an audible yeah no I will [ __ ] kill you

1:51
whenever you're watching like a a movie or a show and they you know it's a very
1:56
they're like lip smacking kissers yeah they put a a little too much sound effect in into the post just a little
2:03
bit too much yeah like Tone It tone that God Jes stop it is so loud in my [ __ ]
2:09
ears right now I love it I love that I can like abuse your ears during this podcast very very
2:17
sensitive human but there's also there's nothing worse than a lip liquor a lip

2:29

2:41

2:55
dating listen Angela we've we've discussed my dating history I mean yeah been there for for a lot of them I guess
3:02
I'm not surprised but I am grossed out I'm not it's so
3:07
gross it makes me want like you should they deserve it and turn
3:13
their tongue into a snake tongue just bite right through the middle get out of here oh man that's funny though but now
3:20
that I'm fully cringed out yeah let's talk about some fights huh um we got to
3:26
go to bellad 300 it's always fun getting to go um getting to go with you cuz you
3:32
always get the hookup so I'll always go with Adam to make sure that I'm not in nose beds by myself
3:40
but I think uh Mike Hogan was giving you that hot breath on your neck all night long but
3:50
it's always fun to go with you because uh you know it's just a fun night out and it doesn't feel as I don't know I
3:57
feel stressed when I go to UFC event as an as a fan you know I feel like uh I
4:04
don't know it's just it's just more like work like I feel like I'm on I feel like
4:10
I have to be like oh you know ready to I don't know jump into the fight but
4:16
bellat where they're not paying your check so you can get wasted and have a great time yeah exactly they don't care if you get kicked out exactly I can make
4:23
fun of some investor and they're not going to like cut me I don't know sec
4:30
yeah get her out of here I'll be like bye I don't need you guys but no it's
4:36
definitely a more fun time I get to let my hair down and uh and I had a lot of fun at bad 300 I did too it was you know
4:44
it was a pretty incredible event it's a little bitter sweeten away cuz we still don't know what's going on with Bellator
4:49
yeah only only rumors are still flying around nobody's actually come out and said what exactly is going to happen I
4:58
mean the it's it's great that you know people are talking and interested in wanting to know but it's just you know
5:03
rumors are rumors are flying yeah I want to know what's going to happen
5:08
especially because we have a lot of friends who are signed to Bellator who have rankings by their names so we want
5:15
to know what's going to happen with them we want to make sure they're going to be paid they can buy Christmas presents for
5:20
the kids you know uh there's a lot that's up in the air and some some of
5:26
the Rumblings that I've heard was that pfl is going to buy it um other people have said that uh you
5:33
know they're waiting to see who's going to take over and keep Bellator as it's separate entity or if there's going to
5:39
be merging which would mean that there are some really exciting matchups there are some really really exciting ones I'm
5:46
I'm stoked about that and you know this might be a little for foreshadowing but pfl started putting fly weights in their
5:52
cards recently I think their last two cards had flyweight fights in there so that's a big new thing they only had the
5:59
maybe two weight classes 35 and 45 so 35 and
6:04
55 so that's that's a big jump um so now
6:10
that they're including fly weights that shows that there might be some interest of merging those weight classes
6:16
definitely not weight classes but merging those divisions from separate promotions sure yeah you could get some
6:22
some really nice dream matchups and I mean if that goes you know if if they thought it all about like what Bellator
6:28
likes to do with making those like big exciting fights and you know kind of odd matchups as well almost like a little
6:34
reminiscent of of dream and pride I don't mind it at all they had a really
6:39
amazing setup which was very much like the old school pride where they had you
6:44
know the Champions come out on the stage and you know there were fireworks and I was like I said I hope that they gave them
6:51
little markers near the priot Technic so we don't have any any singing of the fighters before they fight no Michael
6:58
Jackson Pepsi C commercial oh my gosh maybe a little nous and I just put
7:04
myself in that position I was like man I'm like warming up it's like before the fight and they like pull you out and you
7:10
have to face off with your opponent like right before you go out I don't know that just seemed like really
7:16
nerve-wracking to me I mean even though you're going to see him in a few more minutes it's it's fine but it just seemed like it's just so dramatic so
7:23
dramatic so dramatic I feel like it might ease the tension a bit because you
7:28
I don't know whenever I fight someone and the last time I saw them was at weigh-ins when I see them again in the
7:34
cage for the first time if I hadn't gotten a peak of them walking around and I see how big they are all of a sudden
7:40
I'm just like oh there's a moment of shock you know like God damn you filled out yeah I'll weigh in against this
7:48
chick and I know she's big but then I see her at weigh-ins I'm like look at you little thing what what are you going
7:54
to do to me and I feel big even though I I'm just a scrawny and then the next day I have this little shriveled out corpse
8:01
in my head of who I have to fight and there like this jacked Alistair over
8:06
that's 5 foot2 coming after me and I'm like oh [ __ ] I know exactly who you're referring
8:12
to you are a different fighter where's the girl I want I faced off against
8:17
yesterday she's not here Kanger yeah it's like uh Wilson and
8:24
dson Wilson Hayes has a uh twin brother who is aive bigger than him a lot
8:32
rounder yeah exactly he's on the huskier side so I always think it's funny to uh
8:37
reference those two that's that's what happened they're just throwing in their doppelganger and making me fight him
8:45
sucks so I feel like that would be kind of nice to be able to see my opponent
8:51
and see exactly how big they are right before we fight just so I can get over it like there's a moment of getting over
8:58
oh she's big and then you have to be like okay whatever accept it yes it's going to happen you knew this you knew
9:04
she was going to be big now you see it okay let's move on yeah yeah I still
9:10
don't know how I'd feel still feel like it would be really nering I don't think I've ever had to do that the beginning
9:16
of the night be like why not like before the show starts yeah like before prelims
9:22
parading us around like show dogs just you know make a lap around the cage or around the stage just like wave with
9:28
your hand by your side yeah it would be nice if they carried them on little chariots oh I little chairs that yes
9:37
yeah I was meant to be carried around in a chariot we need to suggest that for UFC I think they'll love it it'll go
9:44
over so well it will it will um yeah the the the title fights
9:50
were pretty crazy but let's talk about our girl Jenna first we have to give
9:56
Miss Jenna Bishop some props so proud so proud so impressed so beautiful um I
10:03
know she was frustrated not being able to get submission in her last fight um
10:09
she got to good positions a bunch but just felt like the girl was doing a lot to stop her from progressing and I feel
10:15
like she just went straight for the kill of this fight she kind of nipped those things in the butt and figured out what
10:21
she needed to do to get to those submission positions faster and man it was really awesome to see and I was a
10:27
little nervous in the beginning of the fight um Jenna Bishop she was
10:33
fighting the girl who fought our friend back the girl who fought our friend back and hit a knee bar so she has good
10:39
grappling and my biggest concern was that she was going to be good enough on the ground cuz I know Jenna is world
10:45
class um but I felt like her opponent would be good enough on the ground to
10:50
defend defend and then maybe get up and hit her while she was tired but uh the
10:56
first couple of me minutes it took Jenna a little little bit to get her down she was able to you know absorb those kicks
11:03
and give back a few of her own and then once she got to that clinch position on the fence she was able to get that taked
11:09
down real quick it's one of our JF flow takedowns that we practice a lot but the problem is because we all practice it
11:16
we're kind of aware of it and you lose that confidence she went straight to it knee reap got on top and got the arm bar
11:25
very nice it was pretty textbook it was it was a very beautiful transition the mission very well done awesome good job
11:32
Jenna yes well way to go and I'm happy that she didn't get too [ __ ] up
11:37
because now she can help me for my fight in Brazil exactly I'm so
11:42
selfish like I'm so happy you're not injured so you can help me you're going to be in the gym on
11:49
Monday right no rest yes you you barely fought it didn't even go a full round so you have no excuse with that was a a
11:55
brisk walk for her she didn't even have to break a sweat is uh annoying yeah
12:01
exactly oh it must be nice so um really cool to see a teammate get a win um
12:08
gives you a lot of boost for your own fight camp and um especially getting being able to get that finish and get
12:14
over that hurdle that she had before is it's just like really inspirational so I'm happy that we're getting that
12:20
momentum going into the end of my fight Camp yeah that energy carries overh it it definitely uplifts up uplifts the J
12:29
I'm like o what does that mean a flips I like my mouth is not doing what it's supposed to do right now dude you could
12:35
just you could have just made up some [ __ ] like this is a French meaning that a French saying a
12:43
flips it means to uh yeah I don't know um uplifts for sure yes it does the
12:51
energy the vibe in the gym it's always really nice it is so um what other
12:56
fights were uh kind of big moments last night cuz or not last night we were
13:02
supposed to film last night but the celebration was a little too hard but what other moments this this amazing
13:09
thing happens when you hit the age of 40 you get three three-day hangovers oh my God yes I I am still sleep you know
13:16
sleeping it off we're a little sleepy I have I have one more more day of feeling like this I think that if I when I wake
13:24
up tomorrow I will feel much better because it's been a rough few days yeah you're it's almost sweated out it just
13:30
takes a few more days than it used to yeah and also I have a boot on so like my means of sweating are very limited I
13:38
I recently actually bought a stationary bike so I can just burn some freaking cies just one leg I now I now have to
13:46
like try to work out like a normal person and I have to
13:52
count calories and not eat carbs do you know why girls are so angry and Moody like normal girls cuz they don't eat
13:58
[ __ ] carbs and they barely eat anything because I mean they don't really need to they're not like fueling
14:03
their bodies for anything than just sitting at work going to work maybe
14:09
walking the dog oo brisk walk 15 minutes oh my God I got my steps in so many
14:15
steps yeah yeah it's Grim the future's Grim it is I I haven't not been working
14:21
out since I've gotten old cuz I started training um when I was
14:27
24 so I still had like that skinny fat thing going on like I I had a fast
14:33
metabolism I was pretty small already so when I started working out like I I
14:39
didn't have a diet I would still eat [ __ ] and it didn't really affect me I just not eat dinner and then go to the
14:46
beach and feel cute but uh once you get older it slows down and things stick on
14:52
you like they stick on you in the places you don't want them to stick oh yeah they're sticking the other day I went to put a pair of pants on and I was like
15:00
wait a these feel different yeah and these are like my my like out of fight
15:05
Camp pan oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so so we you know I decided to buy myself a
15:11
stationary bike and plop it in front of the TV so I don't sit on my butt as much
15:17
I can just you know get up and pedal yeah there you go pedal to the metal as
15:23
fast as my legs can go fast as that one leg can go while staying with in zone 2
15:29
cardio oh so sad it is it's tragic and it takes so long in zone 2 to actually
15:35
get the results that you want too yeah yeah yeah yeah you need to get on a cleanse some stuff over here yeah I
15:42
actually ordered juice this morning oh yeah you're going to be so hungry I know
15:48
I'm going to be so hungry and cranky like every normal female in the world you know what I do when I can't um work
15:54
out and I don't want to get too fat I just drink my calories
15:59
well I did that this weekend with alcohol yeah yeah I did that this weekend
16:04
but I'm like a whiskey soda is very low in calories and you will feel full by
16:11
the end of the night full of laughter Oh that's amazing yes alcohol
16:17
cures all alcohol actually I was telling you I had this lump on my head for a headbutt and headbutted uh our girl
16:24
Nikki who also got the win um in kbat global agreer I think is how you
16:30
pronounce her last name but uh the last week that she was training um I was in
16:36
her guard and she like broke my posture and we went dunk right on the head she had a little black eye in her in all of
16:44
her media pictures and everything and it's because of my head so so I've had
16:49
this lump for the last two and a half weeks and I'm like this lump won't go
16:54
down and sure enough I woke up after a little bender on Saturday and the lump
17:00
was like barely visible dehydrated it dehydrated it's the blood thinned it
17:05
went to the rest of my skull like it was supposed to and because I've been so
17:11
clean with like my drinking and everything um it had nowhere to go it was just hanging out here all healthy
17:16
and happy so yeah I killed it with alcohol bye-bye lump it's still there a
17:23
little bit but no more Benders until the fight so hopefully it goes away natur
17:29
it's fine yeah it's fine yeah um so we
17:34
had a lot of fun um during during the fights but uh let's talk about
17:42
the title fights sorry I started to fall asleep let's talk about the title fight
17:49
my brain that part of my brain just shut off you had a cardi B
17:54
moment wake up reset reset hello I had a
18:00
um who is it Joe Biden wait no not Joe Biden what's the the guy that looks like a turtle who like uh [ __ ] rebooted on
18:10
stage MC Mitch McConnell oh I only remember the cardi B thing oh what
18:16
happened with cardi B she glitched did she what happened like mid interview she glitched what did she
18:26
do was like had a question had a question been
18:31
asked what she was just like yeah she just
18:37
like and then they like Snapped her out of it somehow [ __ ] maybe there's a whole bunch of conspiracy theory videos like
18:45
circulating about it because like she's a robot like yeah she's just a a plant
18:52
oh a clone one of those the Clone Wars yes hm interesting very interesting
18:58
interesting Theory I can't I can't dive too deep into those things I just you know as they come to me I will
19:05
acknowledge them and then I have to let it go send them send them back out just
19:11
let it go I just I I can't yeah I can't well my my brain definitely shut off for a second but let's talk I'm glad you're
19:19
back yeah I'm back I'm back and I'm ready to go I took a sip of coffee and I'm good hey uh let's talk about the
19:24
title fights um first uh I feel like we mention El Lima versus Liz two women who
19:32
we've seen a lot of in the gym uh just kind of in parallel paths living in San
19:39
Diego for a long time and so have they and uh you know it it kind of sucks to
19:45
to see it happen like that but I feel like they were both not they were both
19:51
but I feel like it was kind of poetic in a way because they had this relationship they had this like kind of Sisterhood
19:57
where Li is had took her under a wing when she
20:02
first got into 10th planet and she ended up becoming bellad champ while Liz was
20:08
in the UFC um full circles Liz gets cut off of a loss to Valentina chevchenko
20:14
which is just kind of you know UFC going to UFC um and now she's batted her
20:21
champion and then that's who Al Lima fought to get her belt back and uh yeah
20:27
it it just kind of started off bad because it started off with a bad weight cut but even before then it started off
20:33
with the Hawaii fires and her kind of inserting herself into that whole fight
20:39
and I feel like she put a lot of stress on herself and you kind of got to commender for being willing to just put
20:47
that stress on yourself for a cause in the middle of such a huge fight no I
20:53
think it's a really admirable quality that Al Lima has she's always been really big in her community
20:59
um for Hawaii for just everything involving you know she's um always
21:06
always done that and I think you know it definitely adds a lot of stress on top of fight camp but it was it was a really
21:12
important thing that she was doing and so I I do commend her for that and I think that they both handled you know
21:17
the pressers and and the media everything leading up to that fight I thought that they handled it you know
21:24
with with class and respect and Poise which is you know sometimes challenging to do especially when you're having all
21:31
these other things go on I got to tangle okay how did this happen and I mean as
21:39
far as you know they they had already kind of decided to go their own separate
21:46
ways once they were both in the same organization and the same weight class I thought that they handled it as well as
21:52
they can as far as I could tell and I think that um I think that when
21:59
you're in the same division as a friend I think a title fight is really the only point in which it's acceptable in my
22:07
opinion to to take that fight otherwise you you know respectfully try and go your own paths and if you end up meeting
22:14
it it should be at the title yeah it doesn't make it easier no but I think
22:20
that that's the right thing to do at least there's some real Stakes involved at least if you be your friend they were
22:29
the champ you know or vice versa uh they were good enough to Beat the Champ and
22:35
you're not taking away uh the ability to get to that opportunity which is what
22:40
you would be doing if you fought a a friend who might be ranked or who might be on the up and up and either way
22:47
somebody's going to lose that opportunity for at least a chunk of time to fight for the belt so because this is
22:54
all of our goals I I do think yeah that that would was um the perfect point
22:59
where two friends can fight is when you're fighting for the belt and uh I
23:05
mean it kind of makes aljo and morab look maybe a bit immature in a sense
23:11
like not saying that I think that what they did wasn't right but if you're a businessman and you see IM Lima and Liz
23:18
handle it that way you're going to expect an Alo and morab to handle theirs in a similar way hey if you want to
23:25
fight for the belt then fight your friend you know what I mean nobody will
23:31
blame you and I think it's uh I think it just shows another way that you can
23:36
handle that situation in a way where you're not Burning Bridges yeah it it is
23:41
curious to me because Alaine was talking about going up in weight class anyways
23:47
he was going to vacate and now he's talking about wanting the belt he wants a rematch and then Mor Rob saying you
23:53
know I'll fight for the title but then you know this is my friend it's just it's a weird thing and they missed out
23:58
and now Cheeto ver is scheduled to fight um Ali and I and I don't think
24:05
he's next in line but I think all of this back and forth and whatever Communications are going on behind
24:11
closed doors it has basically like put them on on hold yeah for that and that's
24:16
not something like one one fight to them could make you know a huge difference
24:21
and I I I I would rather see one of them
24:27
fight for sure yeah than I would Cheeto because cheo's already won and he's also not been on a
24:34
streak that constitutes a title shot but he does have kind of a uh what is it um
24:42
like a case for himself yeah because he has beat him before so it's it's interesting and I'm sure Ali wants that
24:48
fight back yeah and it's almost like you have to make that fight now before omali
24:54
has to fight like um who's it that beat youo uh San hiken yeah yeah before he
25:01
has to fight someone like that because that's a tough fight that's a really tough fight you know and he's fighting some other kid who's really tough right
25:07
now oh is he no no I don't know who he's fighting I don't know that he scheduled yet yeah I think he called out morab but
25:14
I I don't think it's happening or I don't think it's been scheduled or anything but uh yeah that you have to
25:20
take that fight now because otherwise Shao Mali has a good chance of
25:26
losing that belt against another guy who just has everything to offer like takedowns striking just a lot of stuff
25:33
to give him trouble and uh yeah it seems like morab and mor Rob and Alo might be
25:40
put on the back burner for a while yeah yeah just as a fighting all the toughest
25:46
matchups to protect shaali from a tough fight yeah that's kind of how it works
25:52
out when you when you say no to a title fight like you get thrown the toughest
25:58
people just so you can be kind of canona for these tough people and not allow
26:05
them either beat them so they can't get to the title fight or give them such a tough fight that the champ has all this
26:12
material to game playing against mhm yeah yeah interesting hope it works out
26:18
though cuz I love your little Bromance guys I love it adorable no I love it I love seeing it I love you and I mean how
26:25
can you not form such like a a strong Bond while you're you know in the trenches together and you know
26:32
supporting each other I love it I I really wish it had worked out you know the way that they envisioned but I think
26:39
there's also an opportunity when things don't work out exactly the way that you think they should or the way that you
26:44
were trying to manifest them too there's also an opportunity to Pivot and and you
26:49
know kind of move from there in a different way yeah it's okay that it didn't work out that way maybe it worked
26:56
out better for you that way yeah I think Alo needed a break so I think it definitely worked out for him um maybe
27:04
maybe I mean I I feel like it didn't work out for both of them in the same way but Alo needing that break needing
27:10
to recharge him going on Polaris and getting a big sub um just being able to
27:17
I don't know just kind of stretch out and take a break from that champness might be really good for him he might be
27:24
able to hit a good reset and be able to come back into his career really strong next time he gets out there um but let's
27:31
get back to uh Liz and Al Lima what did you think about the fight I I thought
27:37
that Liz had an edge going into it obviously she's very strong very
27:42
powerful um and she's been you know looking really sharp in her previous
27:47
fights as far as like executing her game plan very well so when she started to to
27:54
dismantle Al Lima I just I thought it was you know only a a matter of time before before it ended the way it did
28:01
yeah yeah I thought uh oh I'm sorry keep I was gonna say have you heard anything about the state of of her knee I haven't
28:10
heard the official like what's going on with it I don't know if it's a tear assum yeah yeah it could be a tear it
28:17
could have just been the the punishment because it like we've seen what happened
28:24
with like your fa Jose Aldo um it could have just been the accumulation of Just
28:30
Hits and it didn't actually tear anything but just injured it to the point where your leg can't
28:36
move so she's going to have to or we're going to have to wait to hear like what the actual like uh MRIs look like and if
28:44
there's anything torn in there or not but I feel like she's had kind of a a messed up knee for a while and maybe
28:51
this is finally the fight where she has to decide to get it fixed because that was a a clear uh demonstration of how to
28:59
beat someone you know like uh the way that she was able to hone in on that leg and just keep pounding on and pounding
29:06
on it and I thought Al Lima was doing good at first like I part of me was like
29:11
she could be up two rounds just because of the volume just because Liz hadn't
29:17
really opened up yet she wasn't attacking as much as she was defending and it didn't look like anything that
29:23
got through hurt or really that anything got through but it was just the fact that Al Lima was coming forward and she
29:29
was throwing stuff I was like you never know she could be up two rounds and then the like kick started landing and then
29:36
she really started showing that pain every time it landed and we were screaming like go Southpaw like that
29:43
stupid Jake jillen Hall movie go southp because the lead leg was beat up and uh
29:51
at a certain point like especially if you don't have that defense from the opposite stance you you just don't feel
29:58
comfortable switching to that stance and trying to fight for your life with your Bambi leg in the back now is just you
30:05
still have no power you still have no way to push forward and you know what I
30:10
think the game plan was was get L down and get to her back or something is you don't have that push when you get your
30:18
leg chopped up so it was kind of unfortunate to see it go down like that especially the way that her knee buckled
30:26
when she threw that punch is it looked bad and I'm hoping it's not super serious and she'll be able to uh just be
30:34
able to get back to walking around even uh pretty soon but yeah it's it's always
30:40
rough to see a fight in that way because as you know just having that inability
30:46
to use your legs it can be more disruptive in your life than not being
30:52
able to like use your arms or whatever or one arm at least you couldn't use both your arms so
30:58
suck but if one arm is in a sling you can still get it you can still move around a bit like if I'm open and our
31:06
leg isn't too messed up yeah same yeah um we had another really big title fight
31:12
with the ladies we had cyberg versus inano and that was that was a long time
31:17
coming that was there was a lot of buildup a lot of tension um it
31:22
was it it went the way that I think most people went uh thought would go um catch
31:29
just really wasn't able to to mount any kind of offense and I feel like it was a
31:35
good stoppage but it also could have come a little bit early but at the same time the way the fight was going I
31:42
thought it would end up that way yeah I'm wondering um had I haven't seen like the postf fight interviews or anything
31:49
did she say that it looked that it felt early or I don't know that anybody said It felt early um it did look like a
31:57
little pre like just a little like hey wait a second yeah um but I think a lot of times uh the refs look at the body
32:04
language and because she and it could have just been the way she felt cuz she came in real hard um and almost did like
32:13
that knee tap that step around yeah and uh and she just got like kind of clipped
32:18
with the uppercut as she was coming in and it spun her around so whenever um a
32:24
ref sees your back completely turned to a and they're attacking you then they're
32:30
quick to jump in so I think just the fact that she was just kind of stuck in that position for more than a couple
32:36
seconds and Cyborg was you know on the prow very offensive being very cyborg
32:43
yeah um I think that's why they jumped in so soon and it had happened previously like you said like she it was
32:48
like the same exact combo happened twice in the in that two-minute exchange and
32:54
um she just like went for the big takedown got kind of kind of clipped it it must have been part of the game plan
32:59
like that little step back uppercut when somebody comes in nice and wide you just kind of step back you bring that lead
33:06
foot back and put your whole hip into it and those punches power it's a lot of
33:14
power and you don't see it coming yeah like you don't see it until it's on well you don't see it until you're on the
33:19
ground and you see the replay because it's just a sneaky little punch like it's like right below your eyeline so so
33:27
I think that just being caught off guard like that and the amount of pressure that she had coming in for that big
33:33
takedown um the two things just added to that big reaction after she got clipped
33:39
so yeah it's a it's a little oops all right I got a boot on oh thank goodness
33:45
right that's what that thing's for is your toe okay yeah is your toe okay my toe's fine it might be
33:51
broke it might be broke but that's all right I don't need my I don't need my toes
33:57
just the rest of the foot I need um sorry I kicked the
34:04
boot um what was I going to say uh yeah it was a little disheartening because the whole fight Camp um cat was just
34:12
small you know she she's not a 45er and even Liz said it um in in her buildup to
34:19
the fight that Liz feels like she's more of a natural 130 pounder 125 is a little
34:26
hard of a cut for her and 135 is too big and the same could be for cat or maybe
34:32
she's at 135 or they don't really have 135 in ballader and uh doesn't look like
34:40
they're going to get it if they're getting sold either but it's just kind of disheartening and that's that's another match making kind of thing that
34:48
might happen you might have a lot of these 145s and 125s who are floating in
34:54
between coming to pfl and join their 135 weight class it just it makes sense that
35:00
you have if you're going to have 45 and 25 you need to have 35 it just it only
35:07
makes sense um although I'm sure that by taking out the 135 you force people to
35:14
stay in the divisions you know there's no there's no division hopping it kind of makes a very clear line because
35:19
that's one to the other is a huge jump um so I I kind of understand that kind
35:26
of perspective of it but yes it makes sense for 125 135 145 it's just an a
35:35
necessity you know yeah because once you get to the top of the food chain it's
35:43
always going to be the biggest fish you know it's the cyborg is by far the
35:48
biggest woman signed the Bellator and she cuts weight like a champ and when
35:54
she shows up she looks huge and scary you know so it's it's hard for the
35:59
smaller girls who are fighting in that weight class to compete and like we are we always talk about the size difference
36:06
in just one weight class and just like 115 you know the jump between 115 and
36:12
125 is huge and you see a lot of girls cutting from the 50s 150s to make it to
36:18
115 and they do it like Champs like I'm like hey you earned it I guess cuz I would not be cutting 35 40 lbs yeah for
36:27
a fight I feel like I'd break in half but no it's insane to me that people do that but I also understand that it's a
36:33
huge Advantage yeah exactly you know that's why that's why I like 105 that's why I I will suffer and
36:41
nearly die to make that weight class because it is it's better for me because 115 feels big for me the girls feel big
36:49
because you're dealing with people that are coming down from two weight classes above yeah it's a big difference well
36:54
you might be coming down from two weight classes above now that you have that boot you're so
37:01
funny oh my God she's so funny guys but I digress um
37:06
you I digress um so that that was uh one of
37:12
those matchups that had to happen even though um cat was on the smaller side
37:18
and I feel like she'd be more competitive at 135 but uh leam mccort um
37:24
she had a big win she has been looking amazing now I said before I thought she
37:29
beat cat I I thought it was a really really close fight I thought she did and I was really really impressed with her
37:36
in that fight and I was very impressed with her the other night yeah she was meaner she was more mean she looks
37:43
sheive very put together she knows what she wants to do in the fights she has
37:48
you know answers for problems and yeah she just looked like a woman on a
37:53
mission yeah and I think cat was a good uh a litmus test for her um because she
38:00
was able to go back to the lab and then come up against someone who presents similar problems and Sarah McMahon she's
38:05
not as like grindy as cat but she still has like that wrestling pedigree she still has like you know she's adequate
38:13
on the feet like knows has been doing it long enough that she knows how to hit
38:18
and how to move and how to put everything together uh that veteran you know what I mean so uh leam mccort was
38:25
able to go back some adjustments and then come out and just smash Sarah McMahon and looked mean doing it like
38:32
the way she just was like no I'm passing your guard move those legs if move those
38:38
legs I'm going to hit you with my big long arms uh it was really impressive I felt like she like went back to the lab
38:44
and and made a bunch of improvements so uh that might be the next fight for cyborg if we have another bellor with
38:53
cyborg fighting for a title yeah or Defender tile weird is so they brought her into the cage afterwards I was I was
39:01
sitting where I wasn't supposed to be sitting but I was sitting there sitting near the hot breath they
39:08
got you the premium tickets but I like you know they they
39:13
brought her cage side for that fight and you know they brought her into the cage
39:18
afterwards and yeah it it makes sense and it was crazy because she's actually taller than cyborg she's like a head
39:24
taller I was like okay that's a big girl no when she faced off a cat I was like what the [ __ ] I didn't like I didn't I I
39:32
guess recognize the size discrepancy when they were in the cage cuz there were like a lot of grapple scenarios and
39:38
stuff like that but when I saw I was like oh yeah she's she's ginormous she's a scarecrow she's a big girl
39:47
yeah tall drink of water but they they brought her in there as you know it
39:52
would make sense to to bring her in after a big win like that and announce the the next Contender which she should
39:59
be and technically is until we figure out what's going on unless it's Kayla Harris but then also what I heard is
40:06
that like there's another Bellator Fight scheduled yeah our girl uh Sumo is uh
40:13
scheduled to fight on that and um a bunch of other fights apparently so I
40:18
think they even have a location where is it like Chicago Chicago yeah so I don't
40:23
know what's going on with that um hopefully these guys aren't training for no reason hopefully there's definitely a
40:29
fight happening but no one knows right now for sure just all of a sudden it's going to be
40:35
pfl or some other fight organization I don't know yeah
40:41
pflb PBF it's like
40:47
TGIF H um and then I have to admit I didn't watch it but did you catch the
40:54
last fight the um Nur medov versus Primus Usman yes um
41:01
I did okay how did that go I was uh out getting Jenna's dogs for because she
41:08
needed her dogs that is kind of where it went blurry for me oh
41:14
no I mentioned earlier that I have a hangover oh no do you remember the
41:19
premise of the fight um I thought it was short and he
41:25
may have got knocked out or submitted okay I can look it up right now yeah we should look it up cuz I heard it went to
41:32
the decision but I didn't double check again again who knows all hear say and
41:37
it's like uh shing's cat you know little phone tree yeah
41:45
um yeah I uh was actually excited to watch that fight but I had to catch up on UFC today so I didn't get to watch
41:52
that one but um I Heard
41:58
Usman nurov one yeah he did okay for sure um I just can't remember the the
42:07
method but I thought I thought it was a fast fight I could be totally wrong it was fast for
42:13
you it was all a blur like the rest of my night until I saw footage of what you
42:20
and I did at the oh yeah we need to post that oh oh we will
42:27
yes um yeah oh I guess it was a decision yeah I guess I I didn't watch it a
42:33
decision well there were probably moments where he almost submitted and almost knocked him out and people are
42:38
saying Brent Primus was robbed but oh wow o we had a robbery to talk about we
42:45
do that was that was next up on the ballad yeah uh maybe we should go to our
42:52
break yeah we'll be right back come hear our thoughts cuz we got some very strong we got some strong thoughts for these uh
42:59
decisions that are happening um yes if you're not a subscriber you're going to
