00:03:41
Speaker
But we'll get into that later. right, word up. Let's kick this bad boy off. First of all, let's get started with our fan mailbag. ah First question here. Let me ah hit that fan mailbag just so I know where to start the video at.
Terrence Crawford Incident Discussion
00:03:56
Speaker
um So the fan mail bag first fan mailbag question comes from Corn Cops from Omaha, Nebraska. Shout out to Corn Cops.
00:04:06
Speaker
Says, Terrence Crawford was recently pulled over and pulled out of his car at gunpoint on the same day that he was honored in the same city in Nebraska.
00:04:18
Speaker
What do you think about what happened the other day? Oh, man. Now that the police report has come out and realize that cop was ah telling a fib about saying, you know, the reason why he pulled him over and also that seeing a gun, um you know, it's it's a good it's a good reminder that Regardless of how successful you you become in this world, you will always get humbled.
00:04:41
Speaker
um Either your own doing or somebody doing it just to prove a point. And I'm not going to say what we all know why he got pulled over, you know, because he probably fit the description.
00:04:53
Speaker
But, you know, according to the report, now it's It's just sad that you get honored in the in the town that you're trying to put on the map. You're showing up to the to the college games.
00:05:03
Speaker
You're always representing Omaha. you you know you You're Omaha throughing through and through. is the second time he got the key to the city, but this is the first time he had to use the key the city to get out of jail. You know what I'm saying? And this is ridiculous.
00:05:16
Speaker
He had permits for all the guns ah that they had. He had his head security person with him. They weren't doing anything wild or crazy. So this cop tried to prove a point and effectively had his finger on the trigger oh right there, Terrence Crawford's face, where Terrence Crawford is the one that's saying, I'm unbuckling this, I'm doing this. He's giving out instructions to a cop that's already belligerent and come at him sideways when Terrence Crawford is the calm one in the situation. lot of these cops are supposed to play verbal jujitsu, but if you're already coming in, you know, ah hot and ready to fight, that that's not de-escalating anything.
00:05:51
Speaker
There's nothing to de-escalate. You just come in because you want to prove a point that day. So like I hope that cop is on leave without pay, and I hope he's reprimanded further. Yeah, no, no doubt about it. He should be. And especially if you're trying to make a point, knowing, I mean, you've got to know who Terrence Crawford is if you're a cop in that city, especially on the day that it was that he was being honored.
00:06:11
Speaker
um And then again, just to have a gun out seemed a little bit overaggressive for no reason. And especially like you like you said, and I talked about this on my show, Professor Seminole Mente the other day, but he was...
00:06:24
Speaker
talking about everything that he was doing. I'm taking my seatbelt off. I'm moving my hand. I'm lifting my hand up. And the guy was still way too overly aggressive on his high horse. So, no, I agree with you. That's some bullshit.
00:06:36
Speaker
Yep, exactly. Exactly. TWB is what we call that. You're right. I appreciate tuning in. and and And shout out to Josh. and And exactly what, you know, saying without saying, another thing, that cop worked a parade, made overtime that Terrence Crawford created for him that day.
00:06:57
Speaker
way. He worked that parade. So he made money off the parade. He money. Terrence Crawford got him extra money just to get put over that day. This is the problem that, you know, if you're if you're on the other side of pi history on this and and thinking in a certain way, then you're the problem also. So there you are. Hmm.
00:07:12
Speaker
he They said he worked that parade. So it's like, you don't know who that is. Like like I said, they try they will find a way to bring you back down and show you that what power you don't have. So, yeah.
00:07:23
Speaker
That's all it is. Well, all have to say ah to that is... Get the fuck out here. What the fuck is a golem? It's a monster Frankenstein. Get the fuck out of here. Why don't you get the fuck out here?
00:07:36
Speaker
All right, cool. Let's keep it moving. Next fan mailbag question ah comes from Payoff Prince out of Ellicott City, Maryland. Shout out to the people in Ellicott. It was the Phoenix.
00:07:50
Speaker
Yes, the Phoenix. That used to be the spot, son. We used to be there all the time. Jake Paul and Tank Davis recently had a press conference that seemed to be more of a clusterfuck.
00:08:05
Speaker
um what did you What do you think about the press conference and the fight coming up? And also a second question, what do you think about Mike Tyson coming out recently and saying he got paid $10 million extra dollars to not knock out Jake Paul?
Jake Paul vs. Tank Davis Press Conference
00:08:20
Speaker
So a two-part question there. Well, the first part, Jake Paul came out and he plays to the audience. He's dressed like a clown because we all know it's a clown show. It's a circus show. And all the Tank fans out there, I don't want to hear nothing. I'm tired of hearing y'all saying he could be so-and-so. He's fighting Jake Paul instead of fighting top people in his division.
00:08:39
Speaker
There's always something with him. And then Jake Paul in the in the in the press conference is talking about, you know, your – Talk about the DVs he had and he likes to beat up his spouse and bring all that stuff up. And Tank's response is, you're wearing a Mohawk.
00:08:52
Speaker
Who still rocks a Mohawk? It's just like, what what is this? what The only thing about this fight card that I'm interested in is Alicia Bumgarner. She's fighting on the co-main event. So it's like, Jake Paul, you did it again to where you're the main attraction for some bullshit, but I'm actually interested in what's leading up to the bullshit.
00:09:11
Speaker
I want Alicia Bumgarner. The world needs to see her fight. Just like they saw Serrano and Katie Taylor fight, the world needs to see Alicia Bumgarner fight. She's undisputed a female champion fighting out of Detroit, and she's fighting herself. called her last week, didn't call me back, but that's okay.
00:09:24
Speaker
Check your mind space, sweetheart. Hey, shooting that shot. Let's go. Hit him up. Get my boy up. Let's go, Alicia. ah All right. Hey, I'm shooting a lot of things. I don't care.
00:09:38
Speaker
All right, cool. So what did you think about the Mike Tyson interview coming out and saving up $10 million dollars to not knock him out? I mean, yeah. Do you think that's true? I don't think it's true because – Oh, okay. You don't think it's true. I don't think – the reason why don't think it – it could be true, but there's no way Jake Paul's legal team had Mike not sign an NDA that only lasts, what, less than a year?
00:10:01
Speaker
Yeah, right. He couldn't – I thought that too. You what saying? Like, I live in the common sense era of – All these dudes, have they have house parties and have women sign NDAs when they go in their house, they have parties. So his his legal team, this guy grew up in Disney, you know what I'm saying? so he knows how to and yeah cultivate the crowd and get people riled up and and things of that nature. so So 100%, I think his lawyers have something in there to where Mike Tyson can't really say nothing.
00:10:28
Speaker
Maybe for like 10 years or so. i So I could be wrong, but I don't believe it. I don't believe it. That would make sense. No, that would make sense. Like, hey, if I if i pay you this money, you can't say shit for like years. Unless he did and just proves that no one cares.
00:10:42
Speaker
They're still going to tune an in. you know Yeah, um and that's the other thing. the mainstream The mainstream, you know, not the hardcore boxing fans like you and I, but the mainstreamers that, you know, the marks that only turn in for, you know, the popularized main events, those people, they're definitely going to tune in either way.
00:11:00
Speaker
right, let's get to another comment here. Josh says, no hate on Tank in the game where boxers always get fucked over, get paid. You say no hate on Tank, but so you're going to pay $80 to watch him fight a nobody?
00:11:11
Speaker
Make that make sense. This is boxing. It's not, yes, you make money in boxing. Look at Terrence Crawford. Terrence Crawford wanted to fight the best and be the best. That's what boxing's about, and he's made money. okay Tank makes money and don't fight nobody.
00:11:22
Speaker
okay I'm from the era, I want my best friars to fight each other. When I started watching boxing, that's the boxers I liked. This new era, I get make your money, but don't don't make excuses why you don't want to fight the best. So if you're if you're retired and want to fight Jake Paul, that's fine. But if you're an active fighter and you you make excuses on why of why not to fight somebody or have your promoter say, you keep going have you fight Lomachenko, get out of here.
00:11:44
Speaker
Get out of here. You know I'm saying? Yeah, no, hear that. Let's see. Crawford, damn near 40. And? ah and he wouldn Look, it was
Bare-Knuckle Fighting Highlights
00:11:57
Speaker
I mean... It's not his fault. It's not his fault. Earl Spence ducked him for five years, openly ducked him.
00:12:02
Speaker
Nobody wanted fight him. They tried to blacklist Crawford. Even ESPN sabotaged him. So I don't... That's... Come on, Alan. Let's make sense of this. yeah All right, cool. Moving to the next fan mailbag question. This comes from Fighting Fatales out of Newark, New Jersey. Shout out.
00:12:20
Speaker
the the Fighting Fatales or Fatals? are fatal I don't sounds like one of those groups in the Warriors. ah The Frankie Edgar fight was canceled. Do you have any update on this?
00:12:32
Speaker
No, they said it's a medical condition. It came out, I think, yesterday or today. now yeah it was yesterday. um I was looking forward to seeing him fighting BKFC. That card they have on Saturday is stacked with good bare-knuckle fighting. And I'm telling you right now, thought bare-knuckle fighting was dumb, barbaric, all that, whatever stuff.
00:12:50
Speaker
I went to an actual event. Oh, that stuff's amazing. it's It's by far – I want to say I'll probably switch my number one to number two. But – I've been to m MMA, been Muay Thai, been to boxing events, been bare knuckle events.
00:13:03
Speaker
Muay Thai is probably my number one, but right under is bare knuckle fighting. but Man, Jesus, they go at it. It's like literally, bing, and then you start right there like it's legal cockfighting pause because you got to put your toe to the line.
00:13:17
Speaker
And after that, you just just go at it and fight. Someone's getting bloody. Someone's getting dropped probably in the first round.
00:13:26
Speaker
All right, let's get – oh, got another question here. Josh, Donkey Show is my number one. All right, let's see. Okay, next fan mailbag question.
00:13:41
Speaker
um Conor McGregor recently called out Mike Perry for the 4th of July ah fight next year. Do you have any info on... Oh, my fault. I forgot to ah just say who this was from.
00:13:57
Speaker
This comes from Irish Whiskey out of Orlando, Florida. Shout out to you. want to know if you have any news on this. Could this come true? Irish people Orlando? But... da I mean, they're going at it today at the press conference. ah You know, Conor McGregor, he's put his name in there, put his price and, you know, said how much he wants to make if he fights that a White House show.
00:14:20
Speaker
um Mike Perry said, I'll fight you. I 100% doubt it's going to happen. If UFC does what I think they're going to do, it'll be... ah Dana White's darling boy, ah Mike Chandler, you know, they're going to put Conor in there with somebody that's going to stand and bang and maybe not last more than one round. i like Mike Chandler, but he's past his prime.
00:14:41
Speaker
but But here's the thing. If you see Conor at some of these press conferences and you've seen him lately, know, you know, looked like he went to the bathroom and used his key for something real quick and came back out for five minutes.
00:14:55
Speaker
You know, that's, he, I don't, i don't know if he's going to pass and be, have his mind and body right for this fight. If he does do it, if he trains, it's just like, it's just like a John Jones. Can we trust him to show up the way Connor has been acting?
00:15:09
Speaker
Yeah, that's all I'm going to say. That's all I'm going to. Yeah. so Just look at the press conference. I know exactly what you're talking about. That's funny. All right, cool.
00:15:21
Speaker
Anyways, all right, work. That is your fan mailbag. And speaking of BKAFC, that's great segue. We're about to get into that. Shout-out to Skywalker Boxing Media.
00:15:34
Speaker
Guys everywhere. guy literally just had Tim Witherspoon, interviewing – oh boots and it's a Philly, you know I'm saying? So Skywalker, like this guy, i want to say Skywalker probably has his fingers.
00:15:48
Speaker
He's like a fingers length away from every main boxer boxing interviewer right now. This guy's out there. i think He's swinging from skyscraper to skyscraper. Right. I like it. The six degrees of separation of Skywalker.
00:16:03
Speaker
Ah, there you go. Hey, shout out. are Y'all tap in with him. Skywalker Boxing Media on YouTube. to Skywalker Box Sale on Facebook. Please tap in. All right, cool. Let's move it into that BKFC card that we were just talking about a couple minutes ago. So this will be in New Jersey.
00:16:21
Speaker
coming up this weekend. We're going to talk about the co-main and main and get your picks for those. So the co-main event is going to be with two ladies that you said have some real beef with each other. Christine Ferreria versus Jessica Borga.
00:16:42
Speaker
Ferreria is 10-1. Borga is 3-0. oh um what is what is it What do you have on this? I heard so much. You're telling me all this stuff about what is going on? These women generally do not like each other.
00:16:55
Speaker
ah Christine Ferrer, she's a smaller fighter moving up, and
Christine Ferreria vs. Jessica Borga Preview
00:16:59
Speaker
she's going against Borga, and she's the black widow, you know. ah she So Christine was literally saying talking about how Borga had swallowed 10 hot dogs, oh and she's known for that.
00:17:14
Speaker
And then in this recent press conference, she goes, why do you keep bringing that up? I'm still going to F you up, you stink bee. You know i'm saying? So she didn't confirm or deny that she she did that in one night. Who knows? I mean, that's what that's what she's she's insinuating, and that, you know, she's kind of,
00:17:33
Speaker
sucked her way to the top, but who knows? But I put it like this, both of these girls don't play. They don't play. When it comes to this bare knuckle fighting, oh they put they put knuckle to cheek. And ah this fight, i'm I'm really excited to see. I'm going to go to the homies' house. We're going to have about three TVs set up, and going to have BKFC, UFC, and I guess some...
00:17:57
Speaker
Hurricanes versus Seminoles game. Nobody care about that. But, ah you know, we're going to watching all that stuff. But like this is the this is one of the fights of the night um but that I can't wait to see. you know It's hard to pick because, you know, you got the smaller fighter, Burt, Fiera going up, ah moving up in weight. But like she said in the press conference today, you know, the smaller fighter has been dominating and they have been winning going against a bigger fighter. I mean, case in point, Terrence Crawford moving up, you know. So, and also, said, we got Popo Fredos going against Evander Lee Silva, who was piecing him up before his son knocked him out after that debacle this past weekend.
00:18:33
Speaker
Are they going to fight Oh, shit. Yeah. Oh, that's going to be great. Yes. No, they fought. They fought. He knocked him out. no. Okay. i thought oh I thought you were saying that i' same the son was to fight him in the future. Oh, that would be crazy. So we don't even talk about fighting after that, Al. Yo. He might still be sweet.
00:18:52
Speaker
He might still be sleeping. He might still sleeping. Waking out, speaking Portuguese, turning over to ah ah French, the way he got knocked out. But back to Frera.
00:19:02
Speaker
I can't go against Frera. She is – I've never seen her even stunned in BKFC. So club banger, house banger,
00:19:13
Speaker
ah She's going to bang her. I got Frera third round knockout. they go They're going to stop. that's Third round stoppage. We'll say stoppage. I don't know it's knockout or stoppage. I'll just be stoppage just to be safe. But I'm going to go Frera.
00:19:26
Speaker
I cannot disagree with you. Y'all go look at the picture of this Feria chick. She looks like she's gonna like she's a freaking serial killer. Like she's going to murder someone and just put their body in the backyard and just walk away like nothing happened.
00:19:39
Speaker
The folks that know, a mechanic. She looks like a mechanic. There you go. and i'm very And I'm very scared of her. So I'm not picking against her. I'm taking her now. I do want to say, as Josh says, I'll take i'll root for the swallow.
00:19:53
Speaker
ah which Which one was that one again? I'm asking for a friend. Borga. Borga, yeah. she's a She's asking for a friend. She takes 10, and she's like, is that all you have?
00:20:06
Speaker
You stink? I was like, God dang. So are you going to deny it? I might have to sh slide in the DMs. You just know her her she got a strong jaw. She could do all that. Strong jaw. You know, to call your jawbone.
00:20:19
Speaker
but birdon ma saying house far three used to call you jobpa and javo That's great. All right, cool. Let's move it into the main event of this card. BKFC 82 in Newark. As you see, the aforementioned, we just talked about him, Mike Perry going up against Jeremy Stevens.
00:20:39
Speaker
Both of these guys very familiar from their ah past m MMA days. 5-0 in BKFC is Mike Perry. Jeremy Stevens is 3-0. What you got on this one? Man, these been beefing for a while. And I think this is a road to the gold. They're doing a big tournament in BKFC, an open weight tournament.
00:20:58
Speaker
Everybody can jump in. That'll be in the future. but it's going to phenomenal. Ever since Conor took over and put some money and more promotion in that and that and that fight, if you have the zone or if you have a friend that has the zone or whatever, it's free. You don't have to pay for it this. This is all free on the app. Yeah.
00:21:14
Speaker
I would say definitely check this out or check it out the next day because these two are going to at it. Mike Perry has been nothing but BKFC gold. Jeremy Stevens, ever since he got in there, he's been b BKFC gold.
00:21:25
Speaker
He knocked out Eddie Alvarez. I believe that was his last fight. And then when they got in the ring together recently, they had they had to separate them two. That's where BKFC is like where – you When WWF took over and WCW became the second rate, that's where BKFC, where they're still making waves.
00:21:44
Speaker
And then you see somebody like Mr. Perfect come down. It's like, oh, he has a perfect pass. That's Kurt Hedding. That's how BKFC is with these UFC fighters. He's heavyweight champion.
00:21:56
Speaker
All these guys that are just no more in the UFC, they're coming down and they're making waves at BKFC. Even boxers, Austin Trout is a champion. No doubt, Austin Trout. Yes, him. He's a champion, BKFC, and he's a beast.
00:22:08
Speaker
So this is a way for fighters that still want to fight that are in their, you know. It's like a second career form. a second career. play yeah And they're making good money. So I'm all for it. But with this fight, I have yet to see Mike Perry.
00:22:23
Speaker
hurts or or i've seen was stunned a few times but he he mauls everybody every time he gets in that it gets
Mike Perry vs. Jeremy Stevens Tensions
00:22:30
Speaker
in that ring and when he fights jeremy stevens perry is it looks like the bigger guy i don't i don't see little heathen stevens you know i i just i don't see it but and it reminds me clubs bangers it's coming it's coming just your mom knows a about it it's coming but it's It's like this.
00:22:50
Speaker
The people who don't know, but the famous quote of Conor McGregor, when he goes, who the fuck are you? He was talking to Jeremy Stevens in the UFC press conference. And I want to say this. People are going to know who the fuck Jeremy Stevens is because he's going to win fourth round stoppage.
00:23:04
Speaker
He's going to upset the world. Jeremy Stevens, fourth round stoppage. Probably wrong, but it's okay. I'm going with it. ah Hey, Jeremy Stevens, fourth round stoppage. um You know, I'm going to go with what you said. You talked about how good Mike Perry has been. You haven't seen him very stunned, things like that.
00:23:22
Speaker
I'm going to take Mike Perry in this one. He's probably going to win. I just feel like he's he's being distracted right now because ever since he lost Jake Paul, Conor McGregor owns half that ah pat that staff.
00:23:35
Speaker
have Sorry, half the company. or what's the company He's been on his ass. Paul's talking about him, you know, and they've been going at it back forth. So I feel like he's distracted a bit going at Conor instead of focusing on Jeremy Stevens. I could be completely wrong, but I'm going with that.
00:23:51
Speaker
And, yeah, I see you, Peach. All right. Word comment coming in. Yes, sir. ha Yes. Remember the he threw the ah the towel over his shoulder and then he had the gum spit in the air? He put the giant in a perfect plexus. That's all I know.
00:24:09
Speaker
There you go. All right, cool. Let's move it in to PFL. Yes. We have for the Professional Fighters League Dubai this weekend. Going to be a huge card for them. We're going to go ahead and talk about Three fights from this card, since there are some names on here that we have known from the past. So let's start off with the bantamweight fight at 135.
00:24:36
Speaker
You've got Magomed Magomedov versus Sergio Pettis, both 1-0 in o n PFL. Magomedov owns a twenty one and four overall record. Sergio Pettis a 24-7 overall.
00:24:52
Speaker
overall record. Magomedov has a one-inch arm and leg reach and height advantage over Pettis. What are your thoughts on this fight? This is one of the reasons why thought it was weird that UFC's on ESPN along with PFL. It's like,
00:25:08
Speaker
You're promoting two MMA leagues on the same channel. Kind of weird. It is the way it is. But, you know, Sergio Pettis, he's the younger brother of Anthony Pettis. He's the ex-PFL champion or, sorry, Bellator champion.
00:25:23
Speaker
I mean, I guess real quick, though, on that. Would you be more upset if you were Dana White if that were the case? Or would you be more upset? I mean, because you can't be upset for PFL. Oh, no, Dana White, 100%. Dana White, 100%. Yeah, okay. Because PFLs on regular like ESPN at times.
00:25:39
Speaker
That's crazy. You know, so he wasn't happy at that. at the That's why then going to Paramount, I – i can see I saw that. You know what I'm saying? but ah It was happening from a mile away. for the fight, Sergio Pettis, again, he's younger brother of Anthony Pettis. He was ex-Bellador champion. He's beat some some good names out there.
00:26:01
Speaker
ah With this fight, Mike Medoff, he's you know your typical fighter from the Dagestan region. He's a big-time wrestler. oh With this fight, I'm going to go with Sergio because he's way better on the on the hands, on the feet.
00:26:15
Speaker
um so I'm going with Sergio Pettis, and I'm going to say by unanimous decision, it's going to be a good three-rounder. don't know it's three or five. It doesn't matter. He's going to win. so I'm assuming it's three since it's not a you know title fight. But, yeah, I think it should be a good fight either way. So looking forward to that one.
00:26:31
Speaker
All right, moving on into the light heavyweight world title fight of the evening. Corey Anderson versus Davlet Yagshamiradov. I'm going to call him D-Y. Yeah, please do. I wasn't going to try.
00:26:47
Speaker
That's crazy. 4-0 PFL record up for DY. Career record of 25-7-1 in MMA. Corey Anderson's career record is 19-6. Corey Anderson, 4-inch height advantage.
00:27:03
Speaker
each ah six arm reach advantage, and two inch leg reach advantage. So he's taller and longer paws than this D.Y. guy.
00:27:16
Speaker
What are your thoughts on this fight? That's that's crazy. Wow. Hello. please good all This is the thing where with Corey Anderson. I've always been a big fan of his ever since he was in UFC. you know um He got my respect ah when he had to cancel that. think it was the Chell Sonnen versus Jon Jones fight when he got caught with ah the the steroids or whatever it was. He had change to another spot, and he kind of stepped up to him on the plane.
00:27:40
Speaker
um Corey Anderson, he's one of those those those those people that he's been on the cusp of winning a belt but just hasn't done it. Yeah. And to equate this back to wrestling, he's like that mid-tier person and another ex-UFC fighter. So I'm trying to find an ex-WWF fighter, wrestler who went to WCW. So we'll say, how about Earthquake? Million Dollar Man.
00:28:06
Speaker
We'll say Earthquake going into WCW as the Shark or John Tenta, whatever you want to call him. John the Shark! And he just never really got that belt. You know, he fought the big box, man, for the sack of quarters, that match of Bash in the Beach, wherever it was. The sack quarters. You know, it's just like, he's been there, just can't get to feel it. The sack quarters on a pole match on top of the curve. yep, Dustin Rose was hollering.
00:28:29
Speaker
but that's it But, you know, it's it's he's one of those fighters, like, you just got love him And I'm i'm going – 100% goal with Anderson. i think I think he's going to win another decision. don't think he's going knock him out.
00:28:42
Speaker
ah he's He's a very good wrestler. he's He's good on stand-up, but he's been knocked out a couple times. But I think Corey's just going to take him down and kind of make this a boring ground-to-pound fight. I hope I'm completely wrong. He just knocks him out, but I'm going to Corey on this one.
00:28:54
Speaker
I mean, with all i mentioned of the leg height and arm reach advantage, I mean, I'm going to take the person who has the advantages. So I'll just take Corey Anderson as well in this one. All right, let's move it on into the lightweight world title. The main event of the evening in the PFL Dubai card, Usman Nurmagomedov versus the Irishman Paul Hedges.
00:29:15
Speaker
Hughes. Paul Hughes owns a 2-1 PFL record and so still undefeated on the career, although he does have won no contest.
00:29:30
Speaker
Nurmagomedov here has a 2-inch height advantage, a one and a half inch arm reach advantage, and 1-inch leg reach advantage.
00:29:40
Speaker
What are your thoughts on Uzman Nurmagomedov versus Paul Hughes? as my dog is over here scratching the way it is. So I got this place a rematch, and, you know, Umar is a freaking beast. Obviously, he's the cousin of Habib, and his brother is, God, he lost to Marap Davoswali.
00:30:07
Speaker
I forgot his brother's name, but he'll come to me later. But, you know, the fighting, the he's he's he's a typical Dagestan fighter, but he's good he's great on the on the other on the feet. he He wants to stand up, wants to kick box, wants to do all those things.
00:30:21
Speaker
He can wrestle, but he wants to keep a standing up. And he's he likes to do highlight wheel knockouts when he was his time in Bellator. No, you were right. That was the one. You were right. Umar was his brother. This is Uzman.
00:30:34
Speaker
Uzman. I get them mixed up. I get them mixed up. Yeah. Good stuff. All right. Now my dog gets up and he's shaking. All right. Get out here, dog. Are you done? So, yeah, now back back to Uzman. So Uzman, I think this fight is going to be, i think it's going be Friday night on that card. I'm giving it four rounds of bangers.
00:30:57
Speaker
Four rounds. And 100% going with Uzman with a highlight reel knockout. Clubs bangers. Round four. You hear You hear the clubs banger. Round four, Uzman, Namaga Medov.
00:31:08
Speaker
Fourth round, highlight reel knockout. Ooh, highlight reel knockout. I like it. Yeah, look, Paul Hughes is a tough fighter, always has been.
00:31:18
Speaker
ah But look, man, the Nermaga Medovs, that family, that lineage is just on another level when it comes to m MMA. And I would never bet against any of them unless they were, like, just starting out and, like, new and stuff. Yeah, no, I'm taking Nermaga Medov.
00:31:34
Speaker
and i'll check all I'll take on all of them. They're all, like, five five foot. Yeah. They wrestled bears like you growing up. That's my name. Come on.

00:33:05
Speaker
Yeah, it really is. i thought that yeah I thought that Rob Ryan ah was a little was a little over the top with his criticism. um First of all, ah It wasn't his fault that he that these owners and teams tried to ah blackball him for whatever perceived slights they had against him attitude-wise or his father.
00:33:30
Speaker
um good even good He's... easy's easy For some of that, it's him. you know Okay, that's fine. You don't want to get drafted somewhere and refusing to do the draw board with the Giants and stuff like that. You've got to come in doing whatever you want to do, doing what they ask you to do in league. um I'm not agreeing, but I see both sides. You know what I'm saying? like they're not Unless you are the Mannings, because he doesn't have the complexion to put protection, you've got to...
00:33:54
Speaker
you know And I agree with that, but then then they have to accept when he says, oh, I'm better than half the QBs in the league if that's what he thinks. They won't. I mean, I'm not saying they will. i'm just saying they should. They should, but they won't. that yeah ah Yeah. No, we know why.

00:34:45
Speaker
what i covered ah Oh, look, I'm so smart.
00:34:57
Speaker
i don't know why I sounded like a leprechaun there. Anyways, all right. Let's move it into USC 320. We've got a huge...
00:35:08
Speaker
Oh, God bless you. That was great. We've got a huge stack card here, including the rematch between Magomed... Ankelev and Alex Pereira AP a favorite here on this show but before we get to that we want to hit you with some early prelims and prelims because covered he has some fighters he wants to cover first of all in the early prelims patchy mix uh one of the fighters you've touted on this program before is going up in a bantamweight bout against Jacob will wick locks uh he's the favorite in this fight what do you think about patchy mix
00:35:44
Speaker
And they got Patsy Mix. I hyped this dude up. He was coming from PFL, coming from Bellator. He was supposed to be the heir apparent, the person to challenge Marap the Machine Davoswale for the belt. This is supposed to be his fight so on Saturday, but he fumbled the bag and lost his UFC debut. And everyone talks about UFC jitters.
00:36:05
Speaker
It is a thing. Not all fighters do have them, but a lot of fighters do have it. And he had it. I'm going to need Patsy Mix to beat the the dust off this dude. I'm going to need him to show up and show out and prove to everybody that he is a threat in the Brandon Weight division.
00:36:20
Speaker
Show everybody how how great a fighter you are, Patsy. Yes. Okay, you messed up. It's all right. Okay, you had the the bright lights and you were talking. He was talking cash money shit before that fight and loss. So we're going to need you. Please, Patsy.
00:36:32
Speaker
I need you. Beat that ass. I'm going need a first-round knockout. Exciting. Make an example of him. If he doesn't make an example of him, does he lose some more shine on on his... ah if he If he has a bad like a very bad outing as a as As Christopher Wallace might once said, don't be mad UPS is hiring.
00:36:53
Speaker
mes wow Where are you going to go? You're not going to go back to PFL unless they want to have you back like AEW getting Andrade or somebody. It just depends what you want to do. I need him to show up show out.
00:37:09
Speaker
i like the I like the very updated reference on the news that just came out today about Anjade being rec resigned to AEW. Very well done, my friend. That's right. All right, cool.
00:37:21
Speaker
Let's move it on into a couple of more prelims here. One fight you wanted to talk about in a featherweight bout, Jun Sang-yu versus Daniel Santos. Daniel Santos is actually the 142 favorite here.
00:37:36
Speaker
What are thoughts on this fight? Jong Sung-Yoo, he won his first fight with a cow wolf the was the counter left in 30 seconds, his UFC debut. He's fighting again. He's fighting out of South Korea.
00:37:47
Speaker
His name is Zombie Jr., as in the Korean zombie. You know saying? he's going be the next heir apparent. This guy is, think he's what, 8-0, So, I honestly feel like he is going to show up again because, one, the UFC needs that because that Asian market is what they want and what they've been what they've been looking for to get more eyes and more money and more cash flow because one fighting is killing it out there. They are the number one ah organization in the world because of how big they are and and and the reach they have there because one fighting they do, a Muay Thai, you'll get a
00:38:22
Speaker
ah grappling. You'll get all that in one night. So UFC, they need him to to do something, and he is a good fighter. So I got this being a one-rounder highlight real knockout.
00:38:36
Speaker
Woo! One-rounder highlight. What? I thought the sound truck was going to go. Oh, my bad. I was going to say it for the main thing. That's why I thought you figured it out. We're making it work. We're doing it for these clubberding predictions. We got this. Look at me. I'm smart. I came up with clubberding predictions.
00:39:08
Speaker
That's hilarious. This is going to be a good inside jump for a while. All right, let's move into another prelim. Atiba Gautier. Gautier, yep. You've got it. Perfect.
00:39:20
Speaker
There you go. Versus Tristan Vines. Middleweight bout. What are your thoughts on this? This is what I need you all You could do it now put it Open up another window.
00:39:31
Speaker
Type in... Etep, I'm going to put your name, Gutierre, you know, how do you spell his name? I'll put it in the chat. Yeah, put in the chat. Type that in, okay?
00:39:43
Speaker
This guy standing next to Sean Strickland, you think they're in the way same weight class, but he's in a weight class lower than him. This guy is a big dude. He is a fight out of Cameroon. He is the next Francis Ngannou, okay?
00:39:57
Speaker
Type him in there. OK, he's undefeated. He's a rising fighter UFC. There's reason why he's the main event in the prelims. They're going showcase him. And the guy he's fighting, his last name said is Vines?
00:40:08
Speaker
Vines. Because it's going to as short as a Vine. Because he's going knock him out prior to the net in the first 10 to 15 seconds. OK? Like a Vine video? like Yes. fine Yes. Yes. He's going to knock him out that fast. This kid, it's true they call him mini Francis Ngannou for a reason, all right?
00:40:24
Speaker
Look up his highlights. This guy, he reminds me of me back in 1987, okay, when I was out there and had a jericho on it And, you know, I used ah used so do my thing back in the day, but y'all just don't know about We didn't have ah social media back then.
00:40:36
Speaker
But this kid is the next big thing. He is the next, for instance, guy from Cameroon. He just got blonde hair looking like ah Wesley Snipes from Demolition Man, but don't don't let the blonde hair fool you, okay?
00:40:47
Speaker
don't know why are you black as could be got blonde hair, but, hey, check this guy out. Demolition Man. First round. Showcase knockout. All right. There you go. ah By the way, kids, if you were not old enough to get the Vine reference, Vine was a social media site back in the day where you used to have seven seconds of videos that you would post. Like, literally, you had only seven seconds to, like, figure out what you wanted to make a video ah of.
00:41:15
Speaker
But it spawned so many different, like, meme-worthy videos for the rest of the time. It all came from the ah King Batch, he was a Vine guy. um My ex used to call me a vine, but I said I was tired that night. Don't don't make fun of me. You know, i was whatever. but that's another story.
00:41:31
Speaker
All right, let's move it into the main card. In a middleweight bout, number 14 ranked out of Germany, Abus Magomedov. That was good.
00:41:42
Speaker
Versus Joe Pfeiffer. Abus Magomedov is the favorite in this fight. What do have on these two? ah You know, we had a bunch of Magomedovs we talked about today.
00:41:53
Speaker
It's crazy about Abus Magomedov. You're like this, O, because, you know, he was – Like some of but some of my friends, he was ah born in Dagestan and then moved to Germany at age 15.
00:42:05
Speaker
So he's kind of like Hamzat Chamaev where he went to Sweden. So he's got that Dagestan lineage or heritage, whatever, and then went to Germany at age 15. um Joe Pfeiffer fighting out of Jersey. You know, he's a, I would say, ah like I said, blue like a blue collar fighter. He lost his first time in contender series, came back.
00:42:24
Speaker
He was on a, uh, I think he's going to what? He's lost only one fight out of his last five fights or so. He was on a four-fight win streak. um This fight's not gonna last long. Joe Fiverr's going knock him out.
00:42:40
Speaker
that's my cloud I went fast on this one, but yeah, Joe Pfeiffer, he's going to, it's last fight, but Augustus said, you know, he proved that he can last three rounds, but he doesn't play. He's not there to talk, to hang out. He's not there to play tiddlywinks. He's there to knock somebody out put you and ah put you on your back. So I got Pfeiffer winning in the and second round.
00:43:01
Speaker
All right, there you go. Moving on to another main card bout. A tough fighter here as well. Josh Emmett is coming in to fight Yusuf Zalal. What do you have on this one?
00:43:12
Speaker
I mean, it's it's it's Josh Emmett. Josh Emmett is the king of the overhand right. You know what I'm saying? And and ah he's going to come in and look for that. He's had some great knockouts in in the past, but Yusuf Zalav, he's more fluid in this fighting, and I feel like he's going to figure Josh Emmett out.
00:43:32
Speaker
If Emmett doesn't get him, this is no caveat, but if Emmett doesn't get him out in the first round, Zalav will win by ah by decision, and he'll probably win two to one but I got Zalav winning this fight by decision. All right.
00:43:44
Speaker
Moving it on into the the ah third out of five fights on the main card. Yuri Prochocka, a favorite here on the show, versus Khalil Roundtree Jr. Yuri Prochocka is 31-5-1 coming off While Khalil Roundtree Jr. is 15-6, also coming off of a win, Prochka has a 2-inch height advantage, a 3-1⁄2-inch reach advantage, and a 1-inch leg reach advantage, although Khalil Roundtree Jr. has 1-1⁄2 pounds on Prochka. What are your thoughts on this fight?
00:44:22
Speaker
You know what? You can still see me, right? I was looking at the notes. Hold on. Yes, I can. Okay, perfect, perfect. was making sure because you know. Sometimes I see double, sometimes I see triple. But it's crazy. So Yuri Pahashka, he has in his last 14 out of 15 fights either won or lost by KO or TKO.
00:44:44
Speaker
14 out of his last 15. He does have an 87% KO, TKO percentage to point. And he's only 32 years old. crazy is...
00:44:52
Speaker
and what's crazy is His last four fights, he's lost two by TKO and won two by TKO. All right? He's had five, five the night.
00:45:04
Speaker
So he's going to knock somebody out or he's going to go out on his shield? Pretty much. And the only person that did that to him was Alex Pereira. Okay? Maybe. pe Another crazy stat about this fight, these people, of these people, Yoruba Hockka and Killer Roundtree Jr., ah two fighters,
00:45:21
Speaker
have only had three takedowns their whole m MMA UFC career. Wow. Okay. that's Yuri having three. you know what I'm saying? So this is going to be a stand-up war. This could be fight of the night.
00:45:34
Speaker
All right? Now, Yuri usually when he fights his his past fighters, he's like, he's always, he's he's in the zone. He's ready to whoop some ass, yada, yada, yada. But when fighting Alex Pereira, he was like, oh, I got to go to a dark place. I got to think of this. metada I got to go on a mountain and and and eat some sea moss. He was just doing all some weird shit.
00:45:54
Speaker
So I think in his mind, he lost the fight already. Any other person he fights, he's ready to just get him up out of there. Khalil Rountree, they have the same opponent being Jamal Hill.
00:46:06
Speaker
Both of them, that was their last fight. Yuri got him up out of there and knocked him out. oh TKO and then Cleo Rountree is a unanimous decision fight when he got Jamal Hill.
00:46:18
Speaker
um I like Khalil. He's one of those guys. He reminds me of a similar to an m MMA Daniel Du Bois where when he got his confidence, he became a totally different fighter.
00:46:30
Speaker
And he has his confidence right now. His stand-up game, his Muay Thai meai is it's it's going well. That kick he got, Ratchett, when he kicked him right on me and tore his knee, which was disgusting.
00:46:40
Speaker
You know, he's on the top of his top. He was on the top, but then he fought AP Asperger. And, you know, even though he dropped him, with Perea being careless, he still lost that fight, and he got a ton of scar tissue on his nose and eye in that fight.
00:46:53
Speaker
um I think that's going play a factor in fighting Yuri Prochaska. I think um this fight was was... I was going back and forth on who I should... you know Go Khalil, go Yuri.
00:47:04
Speaker
um Clubs, bangers. This one is on the spot. club here You hear the prediction? Yuri... yuy Third round knockout.
00:47:18
Speaker
Third round knockout. And I feel like, I kind of feel they might stop because of a cut. But youre i just I just see Yuri getting him a body there. yeah i just I like Kilo too. He's a really good fighter.
00:47:32
Speaker
It's just that um only fighter I've had, I've seen Yuri kind not act normal with, and he's an odd guy anyways, was waiting for Alex Pereira. And he kind of lost it before he got in that fight. He was he's ah doubting himself.
00:47:44
Speaker
um So I'm to go Yuri on this one. All right. Yeah, ah I agree. I think, ah you know, Yuri is the favorite here. And like you said, they're easy. They're going to, You know, win by a knockout or get knocked out usually go out on his shield type of thing, and that's even shown in the significant strikes. He has significant strikes landed per minute more than two, ah more than Roundtree per minute, 5.7 to 3.7. But on the other hand, he also absorbs 5.7 significant strikes per minute ah versus k Cleo Roundtree's 4.2.
00:48:20
Speaker
per minute. So as you mentioned, right, he's getting hit just as much as he's landing and so when it comes to significant strikes. So All right, let's move it into the co-main event of the evening.
Marab Divashwali vs. Corey Sandhagen Analysis
00:48:33
Speaker
Your favorite and champion, Marab Divashwali, going up against Corey Sandhagen. Divashwali comes in with a 20-4 record. Sandhagen, 18-5. Both of these gentlemen coming off of wins.
00:48:47
Speaker
Now, Sandhagen is the much taller fighter. Actually has 5-inch size. height advantage, as well as a two-inch reach advantage and two-inch leg reach advantage, and also weighs a pound and a half more.
00:49:00
Speaker
ah But Lashali's the champion for a reason. What are your thoughts on this fight?
00:49:07
Speaker
So, i saw recently, I think it wass today, that ah that I think Corey Sanhague was responding back Sean O'Malley about possible fighting at the White House.
00:49:20
Speaker
You know, um
00:49:23
Speaker
He has to get through Marat first. don't think he really played into the question, but San Hagen, you know, he has that flying new stoppage on Frankie Edgar, which was – you all need to that up. I mean, that – Oh, was that the boot to the chin?
00:49:38
Speaker
The feet inside the mouth? It was out of this world. And San Hagen – Look, I had a foot fetish the way he had that foot up in his mouth.
00:49:49
Speaker
Oh, Rex Ryan. But ah he he he put he's he's a former opponent. um He did lose to Aljamay Sterling, who was Marat's training partner. um That was when Sterling was on that that tear when he became champion, before he became champion.
00:50:04
Speaker
Call himself the human backpack. i This fight, i like both fights. I'm a big Marat fan. he I'm a big Rob fan, you know what I'm saying? The machine is that guy. He's going take you down. He's going outwork you, ground and pound you for for five rounds or until you quit or he submits you.
00:50:18
Speaker
um Corey Sanhagen, his stand-up is not bad, but I just don't think he can – i't think you can keep up with Murat. I really don't. um You know, out that you look at Murat's fight against Umar and and and then this fight with ah ah O'Malley. it's He can take a punch. He can take a hit.
00:50:37
Speaker
So his chin is not not a a factor in this. And I think Sanhagen does have a puncher's chance. However, so hi guys clubs bans I got... I got Murat by... ah I think he's going to distance, Scott. You name his decision.
00:50:55
Speaker
All right, cool. Yeah, when you're looking at that, 75% of his wins come by decision. So if he was going to win, you're correct. He usually takes it the distance. And, yeah, I mean, San Hagen's a tough fighter.
00:51:07
Speaker
But, I mean, does anybody – I mean, I don't i don't think anybody – like you said, there's a power there's always a puncher's chance in UFC. Yeah. But there's also the reason that Guevashwale is the champion and the reason why he's a 380 prohibited favorite is because of the fact that I don't think anybody, many people, aside from Sanhagen and maybe his family, think he has a chance of winning, and I don't either.
00:51:28
Speaker
Guevashwale definitely wins by decision. All right, let's move into the main event of the evening. ah fight I am... Go ahead and let's answer that question. Yeah, let's do that question real quick. That's a good point.
00:51:43
Speaker
Shout out John for tuning in. We appreciate you, brother John. da How do you think light heavyweight Jalton would do against Ankh and Pereira? While you do that, i'm going to the bathroom. No doubt. As he takes a dump. ah well yeah did he Is he heavyweight? I thought he was a heavyweight.
00:51:59
Speaker
But if if he did fight them, it depends. He's been knocked out before. If he fights Ankaliev, I think Ankaliev would just wrestle him. I know he's a jiu-jitsu guy. He's pretty good on his his hand on his on his feet. But Ankaliev, he's a softball. He's left-handed.
00:52:14
Speaker
um So it's kind of hard to do a lot of the the stuff you normally do with what other fighters. Yeah. um and with traditional i guess I should but a conventional there we go uh so i don't know I think of if he fought Pereira it'd be more of an exciting fight I thought I think if he fights uh Uncle I have it just be more of ah Uncle I have taken about i don't see Uncle I have standing up trying to prove a point against him um I thought he was a heavyweight though but I could be wrong um
00:52:45
Speaker
But, yeah, that would be my thing. If if you fought Uncle I, it would be boring. If you fought Pereira, would be more exciting. But i don't think I don't have been winning either one of those fights. There you go. Yeah, i agree. I don't either.
00:52:57
Speaker
um But he is a good young guy. He's a good good good tough guy. He's big. He's huge. Shout Thank you. Appreciate you tuning in. Make sure you hit that like button. Make sure that you submit any other questions you have for us. And let's get into the main event again. I'm very excited about this fight. AP is a favorite of both of ours, a longtime favorite of Ball and Bud's.
00:53:19
Speaker
ah Former champion, obviously got his belt taken from him by Magomed Ankalev, is which we're seeing this rematch here from just, I believe that was back in May, I think.
00:53:30
Speaker
um around I think it was around your birthday.
00:53:34
Speaker
Ankalev comes 21-1 and 1. Pereira Obviously, we just mentioned them coming off the the fight versus each other. ah ah per AP owns a one-inch height advantage.
00:53:49
Speaker
But he also owns a four-inch reach advantage. Magomedov, on the other hand, does own a two-inch leg reach advantage. Magomed Ankalev is the 285 favorite to retain the championship. What do you have on this bout?
Magomed Ankalev vs. Alex Pereira Rematch
00:54:05
Speaker
Man, that first fight was lot closer people thought. yeah it was... It was... You know... Lately, Perra's been in some movies. He's been in a lot of commercials. i don't know that Hollywood stuff's getting to him, and they do want to fight.
00:54:20
Speaker
They want him on that... ah The dream fight for UFC would have him fight in the White House if he wins this and have... oh Heavyweight champion. oh Jesus Christ.
00:54:32
Speaker
London guy. British dude. Oh, Aspinall. Aspinall fighting. He's fighting Serial Gone next month. They want they would love for him to be a three-division champion. We'll just have that fight. Something they would love to have.
00:54:46
Speaker
However. However, he's fighting Magomed Ankulaev. And Magomed Ankulaev, another one, trains with Khabib and rest of those folks in Dagestan and also AKA here in the States with Daniel Cormier and Luke Rockhold.
00:55:00
Speaker
You know, he loves to stand up. He can wrestle. He can wrestle his ass up, but he wants to stand up. And him being a Southpaw, which I mentioned in the... in the if he fought ah the fight I mentioned earlier, that kind of stopped Pereira a little bit in those leg kicks because Pereira will tear you up with them calf kicks.
00:55:17
Speaker
You can ask Yoruba Hoshka. You can ask Izzy Alessandra. Alessandra, you can ask Khalil Rountree, even Jameel Hill. you know He likes to kick that lead leg, kick that calf.
00:55:30
Speaker
But him being a South Pole, he's not using his power leg on doing that. So that kind of neutralizes him a tad bit when it comes to those leg kicks. That's why he wasn't the same. And also, on Kalev, he wasn't scared of him. He was bringing the fight to him, you know, with the punches and everything. So um we all thought, as I thought, that Pereira can't wrestle. So we thought on Kalev was just going to him down, ground a pound, boring fight.
00:55:53
Speaker
He said, nah, nah, nah, buddy. We're setting it up. So I think this fight is going more of what we thought the first fight would be. And I've been going back and forth because this one really is a toss-up to me.
00:56:05
Speaker
um If you guys didn't see last week, they they became face-to-face at the UFC facility, and I've never seen people talk trash using Google Chat, Google Translate. It was literally da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:56:19
Speaker
He said da-da-da-da. Well, tell him da-da-da-da-da. That's crazy. That's crazy. I've never seen that before. Wow.
00:56:31
Speaker
Uncle I is showing, is doing what everybody besides Khalil Roundtree did. Like, you're a hospital. He's like, oh, I gotta got to train. I got to be in a dark cave to fight. this Whatever. Uncle I don't care. You really bad? I'm going to fight you standing up. Let's do this. So,
00:56:47
Speaker
That's what Pereira has to do with somebody that's not afraid of him. um And with that being said, this one will be a caveat. Just like before, if it goes past three rounds, Uncle I will win.
00:57:06
Speaker
but Okay? If it goes less than three rounds, Pereira will win by knockout. Okay. and So decision if he goes over three for Anklev?
00:57:18
Speaker
i be Yeah, it'd be a decision. Yeah, for sure. All right. Wow. There you go. So there's your ah Clever D club bangers, not his predictions.
00:57:28
Speaker
um Club bangers will give you a unanimous decision by Anklev. Did you want unanimous or split? It doesn't matter. He'll say unanimous. Yeah. He'll win. How about that? Hedge your bets.
00:57:42
Speaker
yeah he your bets Anklev will win over three and then under three Alex Pereira by KO. There are your club bangers. I am going to go with club bangers.
00:57:55
Speaker
AP. Yes, I'm going with AP to get his belt back. I can see it. It can happen. Yeah. i think I think you're right. I think you're right about one thing is that that fight was a lot closer than ever than but than most people had it out to be. I think in an alternate universe, AP could have won that fight.
00:58:13
Speaker
ah So um I'm taking AP. I think he's going to do it. I think he's going to regain his championship, and I'm excited to see it. Let's get some comments here really quick. Chris Harris, hurry in now. Hurry, the 49ers are getting ready to lose.
00:58:26
Speaker
I mean, start. Wow. All right. You see, i don't say one-liners for the team. already you lost to Atlanta. You're not allowed to say that. You're not qualified to say that. lost to Atlanta. Okay? How about you worry about Jaden Daniels starting and you worry about Terry McClurin starting before you get on my Niners? We're about to get you right now.
00:58:44
Speaker
Right now. And another Commanders fan. Shout out our brother, what Dan. What up, bro? Big Dan. Whoa, big what? Pause, what? Big Dan.
00:58:55
Speaker
Oh, okay. They said something else. Okay. No, no. I got what's going on with the game right now. It's not starting yet. We're still football. Yeah, so let's go. Let's
49ers vs. Rams NFL Game Preview
00:59:02
Speaker
get to that right now. San Francisco 49ers at the Los Angeles Rams tonight. The Los Angeles Rams are seven-point favorites, seven-and-a-half, depending where you're getting your lines from.
00:59:15
Speaker
It's been tough for the Niners. Calver D will tell you if you're a football fan, everybody knows the Niners have consistently dealt with injuries year in and year out.
00:59:25
Speaker
Right now, the 49ers have 13, repeat, i repeat 13 players on the injured reserve and or pup physically unable to perform list.
00:59:37
Speaker
And that doesn't even include Rock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall, or Juwan Jennings, all three who probably will not play. ah Yeah, I didn't think so. about whoa There you go. Confirmed. All not playing.
00:59:50
Speaker
um So the Rams will have – they added good defense, and it's going to be locked in on the rushing game here for the 49ers. So a couple professors' fun facts here. You cannot count the 49ers out because Shanahan has won 10 out of the last 17, 10 and 7 against McVay.
01:00:11
Speaker
against mcveigh um But McVay is chevvin to know against the spread in his last seven short week games, and this is a Thursday game.
01:00:22
Speaker
So, Clubber D, what are your thoughts on your Niners tonight? Well, I mean, I'll put it like this. In the last seven years, the Niners have been in top ten and injuries most injured players in the league and led the league twice. I'm so glad you said that. I'm so glad you said that, yeah. Us having injuries, I'm used to it, okay? We literally... Drake Grinlaw went out in the freaking Super Bowl. So, um my expectations in my Niners and also my fantasy team and all this other BS, they always lose, you know?
01:00:51
Speaker
they Not always lose, but they always... Someone's always going to be hurt. It is what it is. I'm used to this. So, as far as watching the the game and who's going to win, you've got to understand the Rams have a very good defense, okay?
01:01:03
Speaker
oh The Niners have... No interceptions in the last 11 games, I believe, and we have no rushing touchdowns all year. We're the only NFL team with no rushing touchdowns.
01:01:15
Speaker
You keep neglecting the offensive line, Kyle Shanahan, and and drafting other things and not prioritizing that but paying your quarterback. Make that make sense. Trent Williams, I love you, but you're not looking too great lately, all right?
01:01:26
Speaker
Jake Brendo might be the worst center in the league. He's in the bottom half, all right? I mean, let's not even talk about Colton McKibbitts on the other side. you know Decent tackle. You've gotten better. But our guards and our and and our center, Dominic Pune, his second year, he's not looking so good.
01:01:42
Speaker
And our defense, we lost Bosa. That's happened before. We still were a top-ten defense at that time because Salah was in control. We've got to generate a pass rush. Trevor Lawrence was not sacked one time last week.
01:01:56
Speaker
We did get an interception, but they called that back. Our special teams is – This poor, pathetic. We need to fix that. We brought in a new coach. Same outcome. Something needs to happen. The one thing we will win tonight, the one thing we have.
01:02:11
Speaker
is 61% of the fans are 49er fans. We always make that so-fi-south. Not so-fi-south, but Levi-south, okay? All our fans always show up, and I guess the Rams fans don't show up. that That's one thing we will have. We'll have that attendance battle.
01:02:27
Speaker
But i as a Niner fan, I don't see us winning. i I just don't. I can't i can't come here and and be like, oh yeah, we're going to win. We're going win. No, no, no.
01:02:38
Speaker
We've got too many injuries. I'll be shocked if we do because we're familiar with the system, that being McVay, part of the Shanahan tree. ah But we've got it dominant ah ah oh Lenore haston has to show up big with Puka and Devontae Adams. If Ronaldo Green comes back and plays today, he's got to stick Devontae Adams.
01:02:57
Speaker
um But, you know, If we're not generating a pass rush or we're not and intercepting passes, I got the Rams beating us. I hate to say it, but yeah. Yeah, I mean, um I would definitely go with the Rams straight up on the money line. definitely am, and I might also possibly take them on the spread. I'm not as sure about that because I do believe that even with those injuries, San Francisco can still at least keep it semi-close in a visual game, but I could see it being either way, like a three-point game or a ten-point game.
01:03:29
Speaker
Either way, I agree. I see the Rams winning. One thing that you mentioned on our Sunday Showdown show, a shameless plug, y'all tune in every Sunday, 7 p.m. Eastern, Clubber D.I., Shane Peacher, and Dirty Mojo go through all the games. reviewing all the day games and getting you ready for the night games. We talk a little college football too.
01:03:49
Speaker
So y'all make sure to tune in with us there at Ball and Buds. But you mentioned that there were zero rushing touchdowns for San Francisco, which was a student observation by you. um I want to add to that. They rank second to last in the league at only 3.3 yards per carry.
01:04:05
Speaker
And that's for a team, um you know, Kyle Shanahan that – usually ranks at the top of the league in rushing. They are currently 28th in rushing yards per game.
01:04:20
Speaker
yeah but'ss um It's embarrassing. And the reason why that is because you trade for Brian Robinson Jr. from, forgot to mention, commanders. Yep.
01:04:31
Speaker
You let him get five, six carries. you your control You let McCaffrey control how many carries he gets a game. Offensive line's not playing well. Put someone else in there, okay? Get McCaffrey. You cannot keep leaning on McCaffrey because he's not going hold up, all right? He held up. You paid him all that money last year. He played only four games, four or five games last year. Didn't do diddly squat, another Redskins coach.
01:04:52
Speaker
um No, that was more. But anyways – If offensive line stinks, McCaffrey's not the same, put some new blood in there, okay? put Put Isaac Garendo, put him back there. you You drafted Jordan James out of Oregon.
01:05:04
Speaker
Let him get a carry. Let him do something. Put Ryan Robinson in the game more. Or put McCaffrey in. Put him out as a wideout. Put both of them in there. Who cares? They'll do something. Switch it up, Kyle. The problem Kyle Shanahan, which I don't like, and I always say this, he is too god-dog stubborn and to to change things up. He thinks his way is is the only way. And it doesn't work sometimes. You've got to switch things up.
01:05:26
Speaker
So, yes, we have injuries, and and that does play a part. But if if if you keep going to the well and it's dry, why still going there? Go to another well, you know?
01:05:37
Speaker
That's my opinion. Yeah, and as you mentioned, I while want to also touch you. You touched on the McCaffrey-Mac Jones um versus the Rams defense. The Rams, I mean, they have a ah very, very defense. Tough defense that brings unrelenting four-man pressure. They're second in the NFL in total sacks.
01:05:54
Speaker
They're fourth in pressure rate at 45%, and they rarely blitz. They only blitz 20% of the time. They're ranked 24th. So they're getting pressure with just that front four.
01:06:06
Speaker
which makes it that much better for your linebackers and your secondary to be able to to to take care of their jobs. um And so that means they'll be able to not only get that person with the floor, but then they can bring the linebackers down and stack the box in order to keep McCaffrey and the running game, ah you know, held to a minimum.
01:06:24
Speaker
I would say with that, their front four with Fisk and Inverse, it's really good. Like you said, like you it's top top notch. However, since we got another commander's rider over there. um They got Emmanuel Forbes out there as cornerbacks. Trash.
01:06:37
Speaker
Their cornerbacks are not that good. Their secondary is not that good. Their front seven, top-notch. Secondary, Pasuda, Mierna. Okay? I can say i say more things, all right? The cousin was a Capron.
01:06:49
Speaker
Anyways, so that's where the Niners can try and do better. However, we got DeMarcus Robinson, Marcus Valdez, Scandling, whatever his name is. ah We got him. We...
01:07:00
Speaker
ah we see we got We have our fourth-string receivers, fourth-fifths, sixth-string receivers in. Even though rookies are hurt. you know So this is going to ugly, ugly game for the Niners. Now, I do want to ask you about the other side of things, though. We haven't talked about your defense yet. I know that you mentioned y'all lost Nick Bosa, which is obviously a huge loss.
01:07:20
Speaker
um But we also got to look at your cornerbacks and your secondary. They have to go up against Puka Nakua, who right now, if you're looking at giving someone non-quarterback MVP, you might need to be looking to Nakua's way as he leads the league in receiving yards, targets, receptions, yards per route, targets per route, and receiving first down. He's on pace to break Calvin Johnson's receiving record of 1,964 yards. Oh, the don't forget,
01:07:46
Speaker
by the way don't forget They picked up Devontae Adams, who everybody thought was washed, but has now just come out and been a great second receiver, especially in that red zone where he's being targeted at a healthy 29% targets per route.
01:08:03
Speaker
um And, you know, going up against ah the secondary yeah that the 49ers have, how do you see them being able to contain or not contain those receivers?
01:08:14
Speaker
All that's going to matter on the pass rush. If they can get Stafford off his block and moving around, we have a chance. If we don't, they can carve us up. I do like the matchup of De'Ammo Lenore against Puka because Puka's not a speedster. He's not a burner.
01:08:27
Speaker
I know he retired Howard recently, but De'Ammo Lenore, hopefully he can keep up with him because he's the ex-slot receiver. The main things that's going to be upped and stout are rookie nickels,
01:08:38
Speaker
back okay They like him a lot. He is very good in a nickel. If we can stop them with the short passes and get a little bit of pressure and get Stafford off his off this block, we we might be okay. But if we don't, they're just going to carve us like a Thanksgiving turkey dinner.
01:08:52
Speaker
oh That's the main thing. We have to get pressure on Stafford. We cannot give him time. If he has time, he's going to have Pukul. He's going to have Devontae Adams. He might even throw it to me. You never know.
01:09:03
Speaker
But it's he's going to carve us up somehow, some way. um That's the main thing with these guys. it reminds me of my top list of quarterbacks I hate playing against. My team, Kurt Warner.
01:09:15
Speaker
Russell Wilson, he he's like twenty one like five against us. Hated him. Kurt Warner, Drew Brees. Those three right there, I could not fucking stand. And Eli Manning, him too in the playoffs.
01:09:27
Speaker
Those were ones, and now Stafford has... going up the ranks and got to my top five. I can't, I can't play him. I can't stand it. i Well, I'd be ready to punch something. right He just, he's good. And and i'm but I'm a, I'm a Stafford fan. He's good. He's a good player. So, but I just don't want to play us like that.
01:09:44
Speaker
Yeah. And to, to your, to your point, The 49ers have allowed the fifth fewest amount of receiving yards per game, but they haven't faced a top 15 offense yet, and Rams are third in receiving yards per game. but All right, what are your what is your score on this one, sir?
01:10:01
Speaker
My closing thoughts, as it says, we got about a minute. I will say Niners might make it Close for the first two quarters, and then the Rams will just... going to give us... I'm going to give Rams 34 17.
01:10:15
Speaker
i'm gonna give the rams thirty four to
01:10:20
Speaker
seventeen thirty four seventeen Rams. I'm going to twenty four fourteen ah Rams, a little sco less scoring of an affair. Oh, there was one professor's fun fact I wanted to put out because I wanted to come to what you said about the injuries.
01:10:36
Speaker
Aaron Schatz, I found the stat. He has an adjusted games lost metric. And in six of seven Kyle Shanahan seasons, you can see ah their rankings.
01:10:47
Speaker
The lower the ranking meeting between, you know, and I'll i'll give you a better Yeah, but the league has won. The lower the ranking, ah the worse it is in games lost. You can see the 49ers, 22nd, 26th, 27th, 32nd, most games lost. 29th, almost most games lost. So every year consistently losing between the most and almost the most games each year due to injury
MLB Game Outcomes
01:11:11
Speaker
are the 49ers. Yep. And as I get out here, it's about start. ah Yeah. Yeah.
01:11:15
Speaker
That's how it is. And you know what? He also has a good record losing one than winning the next one. So it's kind of weird like that. but Before you go, i know you got to go. I'm going talk some baseball before we get out of here. Minnesota Vikings, Cleveland Browns, early Sunday. Who you got?
01:11:29
Speaker
I got the Vikings. oh We'll say 20, 2010. twenty ten right, perfect. All my brother. Enjoy your game. ah so channel Clubber D, find him on YouTube at Clubber D. um It's up there in the link tree. You can also find his TikTok up there. He is our Boxing UFC Insider. We love him very much. Thank you for being on, brother.
01:11:50
Speaker
We out. See you. Peace. All right. Real quick, want to just give you an update on some baseball scores before we get you out of here. I know he had to go watch the game. I also want to watch it, but obviously not my team.
01:12:02
Speaker
So I'll take a couple more minutes here just to give you all some updated scores here. So first of all, let you know, these were the elimination games today in baseball. The Cubbies.
01:12:13
Speaker
Chicago Cubs with 3-1 victory over the San Diego Padres. um The Cubs will ah move on. Hold on one second. Let me get the bracket here in front of me because I don't remember. Okay, so the Cubs are going to go face their that's right their division rival, the Milwaukee Brewers.
01:12:33
Speaker
Wow, what a game what a series this is going to be. The reason that is, y'all, Milwaukee Brewers, Their past coach, their former coach, Craig – not Craig – What's his name? Yeah, Craig Council.
01:12:49
Speaker
He used to coach the Brewers. He actually left them, du like, stood him up at the altar type shit when he was about to be a free agent for signing and left to their rival, the Cubs. So this is going to be a spicy series there in the second round. Also, the Dodgers swept the Reds. I told you all that was was going to happen. The Reds stood no chance.
01:13:07
Speaker
I'd rather my Mets have gone in, although we probably would have still gotten swept too, but at least it would have been a more fun series to watch. That series was shit to watch. But the Dodgers will face the Phillies in what should be the best matchup of the second round.
01:13:21
Speaker
Moving over to your AL side, the Detroit Tigers, they did it even though they blew the lead two um the the Cleveland Guardians to get overtaken yeah after having a 15-and-a-half game lead.
01:13:35
Speaker
there at the beginning of the second half. They actually pulled it out two games to one, winning today over the Guardians to move on to face the Seattle Mariners in the second
Show Conclusion and Viewer Engagement
01:13:46
Speaker
round. And then finally, right now going on the biggest baseball raval rivalry of all time, the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees in game three to go on to see who will play the Toronto Blue Jays. Right now it is zero zero middle of the first, which means Baseball and football are which means I got to go because I got things to watch.
