UFC Fight Analysis

00:06:43
Speaker
All right, cool. So let's start off with MMA and what we got going on. We had the fall out from UFC fight night this past weekend. um And some people I've seen on the internet have said that they believe This card was that is was better than the UFC 3-12 card coming up this weekend. So I put that to you while I also ask you, um what were your thoughts on this card? And I know obviously we'll get, ah you want to talk about the undercard and then we'll talk about the main event. Well, I mean, this card was, was it's it's set up for none but high action knockouts and a very
00:07:26
Speaker
Very a high level. of ah You think you get a bunch of knockouts, but we got a bunch of blood in ah in a couple of submissions. But this card, this fight card wasn't bad. You know what I'm saying? It was, you had to watch that 12 o'clock in the morning, and which was great on Saturday. It means you can watch the card and go about the rest of your day and have fun. So love that because I could watch that card early, chill, relax, and then watch Benavidez and Morrell later that night. So worked out perfectly for me as a fight fan. Um,
00:07:51
Speaker
Now, as as far as it being against the car this weekend, yeah, I mean, this car, this weekend's card is, I mean, it's not, this is like a ah ah Tuesday night USA boxing car, you don't know what I'm saying? There's like two fights I really want to watch on this, and maybe two. I mean, but this card is not that good. I mean, this is what, when we talk about the UOC is wearing itself thin, where and it,
00:08:13
Speaker
ah Less is more with you'll see it needs to be less is more you guys have fight nights all the time You have obligations to Saudi Arabia and other places and then you know I'm saying it's ah then you try to put on these cards where you expect me to pay $80 for this card when I got a fight night last week for free. um ah And so, you know, it's <unk>s conflicting, you know, it's like David Benavidez, even though that's an $80 card, Amazon's charging, we got the best card in boxing in like two weeks for like $22, a Turkey dollar chic is putting together. So, you know, it's, ah yeah, yeah, it's one of those one of those dilemmas. But definitely I had this fight night, when it's all said and done, this will be better than the ah the pay-per-view this Saturday.
00:08:59
Speaker
Okay. Word. Well, that's what, most that's what I saw was most of the, uh, proclamations on the internet. Like, why wasn't this the pay-per-view instead of this being the fight night and the people were, you know, they get up and arms people on the internet. They don't have anything else to do sitting in their mama's basement. Uh, but I do agree with them and I agree with you shots fired, but I agree with them and I agree with you as well. So let's go through this card really quick. I know you want to touch on a couple of fights here.
00:09:23
Speaker
I know you wanted to touch on a couple fights here. Uh, did you want to talk about, first of all, I know we didn't talk about this beforehand, but I just see this fight now Pavlovich, uh, with the decision over Rosenstruck. Did you want to, I mean, that, that fight, to be honest with you, I was like, come on, man. I was, ah I did a short. I did not release the short. Oh, we'll get the boxing, but I did not release the short.
00:09:51
Speaker
uh, because I didn't do it in time. Um, and, uh, thank God I didn't do that because I had rose stroke winning and, um, That fight was a Snorfest and he didn't want to engage. I mean, he literally was leaning back on on his back foot, doing these wild punches. And then when Pavlovic, when he get them down, he would just cover up or just ah hold on, you know what I'm saying? Lay and pray. This fight was was not what it's built up to be because Pavlovic, he is a type that can that can knock the race off your face. He is one of those heavy hitters i can that can do that. But, you know, it just, it didn't live up to its ah ah capability. And I was a little pissed off about that fight. Very mad.
00:10:29
Speaker
All right. And, uh, lol says nobody except me. And, you know, we see the next comment as well, and you must be reading club or D's mind. You must have been like hacked into his online diary or something because you know, all the topics we're going to talk about somehow. And I'm not sure how we can't post your next comment either. Cause they would give it away. Yeah. Yeah. This man, this is, this is a, this is a true fight band. I love this. I love it.
00:10:53
Speaker
All right, cool. But we can't show this one.

Adesanya's Career Discussion

00:10:55
Speaker
UFC diluted too many fighters and events. That's what you were just talking about. Yeah, their obligation to ESPN is it's kind of hard for them now. And now now they they announced that they're going to have Cheryl Sonnen and DC be the coaches for the Ultimate Fighter Show because I don't even know who still watches that show. I haven't watched the show. Whoo. But not my time. Ronda Rousey last time I watched it. Yeah, I was watching.
00:11:20
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, on ESPN+, if I'm bored, I might catch an episode every once in a while and run into it, but yeah, I don't watch it either. um All right, how about we move into that co-made event, the middleweight bout between, you can say his name, how you did earlier, I'm not going to, Magomedov versus Michael Reynolds. We'll say the bullet. I want want you to say it again. ah ah scar sha I'll say Shara Bullet, how about that? Yeah, don't get us beat up by the Magomedov crew.
00:11:47
Speaker
No, no, this it's it's it's sure his nickname is bullet. It's it's it's how you that's how they say it's sharp. Oh, yeah. I i watch it here. Let's say how about that. And again, Michael Benham Page. So I was I'm not gonna lie in my short, my unreleased short that I was going to drop. I had a magma medal of knocking him out because, you know, if he was moving up and he lost his last fight, you know, you know, he was just getting Gary could have gone on kind of easy way. It was a kind of boring fight. But I figured Michael venom page, his age will catch up with him at some point. You know what I mean? He had that crucial knockout by, uh, uh, shoot Diego Lima. Yeah. Diego Lima. And then he did bare knuckle against Mike Perry. You know, this guy, he's fought. Eating and everybody on the Bellator side, but you know, at a certain point, every fighter like this person in the main event, once your chin goes, it goes. Not that he's been tapped that many times, but.
00:12:45
Speaker
you know, I figured this would be the time that it happened. And then I talked to my man TJ at the gym the other day. He was like, man, Michael Middleton gets hit all the time. It's just that his last fight, he got lucky with that spinning ah elbow, whatever it was, you know, he's he's a good kickboxer, but he had him losing. So.
00:13:00
Speaker
This fight happened. MVP put on a clinic. and MVP look great. Okay. So MVP, I don't know if he's going to stay at middleweight. I hope he should stay at middleweight, but he looks good. He doesn't look 37. I thought his age would catch up with him and he's going to get caught, but now he canceled all those plans to push.
00:13:16
Speaker
mimet off And it probably did them a favor because Maga Menop has one eye, so he's not gonna be able to fight in America. So the only time he's going to be able to fight is in Saudi Arabia or Dubai or something like that. I mean, I don't even know if he could fight in the UK.
00:13:29
Speaker
so I know a lot of these stars are getting older. They need to build these younger stars, especially stars that are from that region, so they can keep going back there and sell out the house. You know, yeah look at Islam, that heart is full of Dagestanis, you know, people like that, are or Cheznians, you know what I'm saying? So they need to build more stars. And and and and now they're like, God, dog, MVP, you don't mess our plans up. So, you know, and then we said, I'm your captain, because the dude's the pirate. Yep. See, like right there. MVP said, I'm your captain. At and the end of the fight, it was pretty funny. so Yeah, his treasure was stole that night and he got stolen. Yo, I this is hilarious because this is one of your cousins, obviously not mine because none of mine speak English. Let's just get that out of the way. So it couldn't be any of them. This is your cousin on his KD burner. Do you know which cousin this could possibly be of yours? I know it is. OK. I know who it is. I know who it is. I know in Atlanta.
00:14:28
Speaker
yeah That's great. That's tremendous. That's why he's thinking just like you, your family. That's why that makes complete. I know exactly that is there, Mr. CJ. Hey, shout out brother. Thank you for watching. Moving into the main event. Uh, Israel style bender out of Sonya taking on. I'm in the vlog because I'm not even going to try his first name. i no you That was good. That was good.
00:14:52
Speaker
Okay. Emavav, K-O-T-K-O in round two, 30 seconds remaining. What are your thoughts on this fight? And we'll bring up the question your cousin asked, which is the same thing that you were going to ask as well. I mean, this is the, this is his first fight in like what? Five or six or seven years where it wasn't a five rounder and being for the belt or something of that nature. You know, he's always been helping around there in the last five, six years. You know, Izzy has a great run.
00:15:22
Speaker
You gotta imagine he's at over a hundred kickboxing fights. So, you know, he's 35 years old, but he's been around. um He's on a three fight losing streak. ah He looks good. Just like in the do plus C fight, he looked good until he got taken down it and got submitted and didn't do plus C fight. And this fight, he was looking good. When I was talking to my man TJ about it at the gym, I didn't notice that rewatch it. He got poked in the eye, but let it go. And then he got caught.
00:15:51
Speaker
um I watched it again and yeah he did get poked but then he got caught so it's like Watching him fight nowadays reminds me of like Chuck Liddell or one of those fighters that they used to take a beating and keep coming back. And now when you watch them, you're like on pins and needles, like, when's he going to get knocked out? When is he going to get clipped and get that flash knocked out? That's the time. That's the realm where I put him in as far as fighters I like. and And I hate to see that fall from grace. So, you know, ah you know, it's yeah. I don't think he's done.
00:16:28
Speaker
I think you need to put him in against somebody. You got you got to put him in that gatekeeper realm, the right that right above Holland, Kevin Holland realm, like somewhere right above there. Put him in testimony and in Texas. Test him out in that type of fight because, you know, he could be like an entrepreneur who just keeps fighting and fighting, you know, get to the echelon, but just keep fighting, you know, who's who. So you could put Izzy in that in that realm, be honest with you. That's what I would do just to test and see how he does.
00:16:58
Speaker
Yeah, I saw a, and I'm trying to find it just now, if I could find it. What I saw on on X other day, a but like a little team that had Israel Osanya in the first like seven years of his career, I think it was 2013.
00:17:13
Speaker
to 2021 or something like that, um undefeated with all these KOs. And then it was like, since 2021, it was like, oh, and five with like, or one in five. So I can't remember the exact record, and like three KOs. And it just shows how even the greatest fighters, someone who won at one point in time was in talk to be one of the greatest, um, you know, fighters in not only his division, but in UFC, like you just said, has a fall from grace that is so sudden and so significant. Yeah. I mean, it happens. I mean, if I was looking at his, uh, his, his, his fights and he was on a tear until he moved up to 205 to a fighter fight up a whole bitch. Wow. He moved back down. He won, I think two or three in a row, taught Pereira.
00:18:04
Speaker
You know what happened? Came back in one and then lost again to Strickland. And then, you know, so ever since he moved up, that kind of slowed him down. You know, he was on that that mighty mouse that that Anderson Silva in his prime, like like streak, you know what I'm saying? And and and those guys were just unstoppable. Anderson Silva stopped him was a broken leg, which is.
00:18:27
Speaker
No, that was the second one. First one, he got knocked out. First one being around. Then he broke his leg in the following fight. That joint was spun around. Oh, it was gross. It was... Oh god. Don't. Oh, don't remind me. That was so hard. You know what, Omar? You got slap fest. You got the little slap fest joints. I saw that. So now they have one where people are just taking leg kicks back and forth. Just standing still. Boom. Kick my leg. And I saw one where dude did that. His toe wrapped around and touched his, his, oh man. Don't watch. Don't watch. No, no, no, no.
00:19:02
Speaker
Why do people do that? Uh, ATL ho. That's right. Yeah, I know. Uh, he, he also says the MMA casuals been killing me this week. Everybody get caught one second. They say he the best next second. He never was. I think he just needed to tune up and not a contender. What do you say? Yeah, pretty much. I mean, you got, you got testing work with something like a gatekeeping level, like someone that's good, but.
00:19:25
Speaker
They are at the crossroads of their other career. They can go up or go down one of the two, you know what I'm saying? And, uh, I mean, he still, he looked, he looked good. He looked sharp. It's just that, you know, he got, he got caught. And just like when he fought DDP, um, he looked good in that fight. He just, I don't know. We just didn't know. I do, uh, stop a submission, uh, we're naked choke, which is weird, but, um, you know, I think, I think, uh, yeah, 35.
00:19:49
Speaker
I just need to see him one more time and see exactly where it, because for me, you got to look, you got to look ass. You look terrible for me to write you off and he looked at you. Look, he actually looks sharp. So, you know, I don't want to, I don't want you to know too much, man. He's a good guy. And I think you've pointed out that he's, he's not necessarily either in the good boys club, obviously. Right. ah But.

UFC 312 Preview

00:20:10
Speaker
um Dana actually came out and had really good things to say about the fight and said that he thought Adesanya won the first round and was in control until he got caught. So he thinks that he still has ah something left in the tank. Yeah. And usually, Daniel, Daniel will say we need to have that talk. We we we need to have that talk when ah when it's that time for the fighters, you know, like always bring them Chuck Liddell. But Rich Franklin knocked Chuck Liddell out with his forearm, not even a punch. So it's just like, oh, you know,
00:20:39
Speaker
Sometimes times when I, when I chin goes, it goes, you know, it's woo ask your mother cause her chin done being gone many a times when club or D get in the action. Jesus Christ. What is going on? Wow. Subscribe to ball and buds for more of that. If you want the, uh, if you want, mar if you want club or D's inside videos, his only club.
00:21:01
Speaker

I see a bunch of y'all in here, but we need y'all to hit that like board. Thank you. All right. Moving on to UFC 3.
00:21:29
Speaker
two more two more UFC 312. My friend, uh, we have two that we want to talk about here, the co main event and the main event of the evening. First of all, the co main event for the women's straw weight championship. One of our favorites here, especially because yeah are we are big in China.
00:21:48
Speaker
Uh, so she's always been one of our favorite fighters here 25 and three record Weili young as we say it here in america, not the back the other way as they correctly say it in their country, um versus the undefeated 11 and 0 Tatiana Suarez my wow Wow, this is going to be a ah good fight. What are you thinking about this? I've been waiting for this fight to happen so long Tatiana Suarez she is She's an enigma, you know, she's like the hums out of women's fighting. OK, she's been fighting for like 10 years. And I think so I think she's 10 to know. I don't know if she's 11. I think this is 11 fighting. OK, they may have it wrong on on on Google, but it says 11 and now. But.
00:22:32
Speaker
This is only 10th or 11 fight in 10 years. She barely fights. I mean, she fought twice in 2023. The last fight before that was 2019. So it's like, she takes these, these long breaks in between our fights. You know, they have a right yeah common opponents with Carla, as far as the X champion and Jessica Andrade, but you know, Tatiana Suarez, I've been waiting for her to finally get a title shot and Waley, or should I say,
00:23:00
Speaker
I forgot her name for rush hour. But anyways, I was going to say the young one for rush hour. But why am I blanking on Lucy Lou? Was it Lucy Lou? Lucy Lou was not in rush hour. It's Christ. Little girl, Sue Young. Who was in rush hour? I don't remember. What over your head. Lucy Lou. It really did. It really did. My bad. I apologize. A little girl from part of your rush hour, Sue Young.
00:23:28
Speaker
Oh my god. Yeah, Josh. Yeah. Hey, Josh. 86 got you. 86 got you. But yeah. So, she's had some wars too. So, I mean, this is, this is gonna be a good fight. I really, you know, Waley's on her second title, title reign. Her, this will be her third defense.
00:23:47
Speaker
um
00:23:51
Speaker
man for me to pick this guy you got a wrestler against a person who's all around good a great stand up fighter okay but you know she's only what one year younger that is uh i think asparza not asparza i'm sorry um Uh, Jesus Christ. Tatiana Suarez. I think she's a year younger. Yeah. Let me see. I got it right here. Uh, she is, uh, by the way, she is 11 and 0. Um, and actually they don't have their ages here on the UFC website for some reason. So, uh, scratch that. We don't know. Yeah, I know. I know Tatiana's a 34, but regardless, I mean,
00:24:33
Speaker
Weighley's fault of who's who. She just haven't false somebody like us. Uh, um, I'm to go with of bangers clubs bangers.
00:24:47
Speaker
I'm going to Tatiana Suarez five rounds all the way unanimous decision. She's getting a belt. what What taking a belt hot take Jake. That's for you. She's taking the belt. I know you're a fan of hers.
00:25:02
Speaker
Oh, wow. Nobody's going to see it coming. Nobody's going to see it come about me. That is a huge upset. The champ that has been the champ and has been dominant even when not the champ in that division for a long, long time. And as far as she is a great fighter. Wow. You're going with the upset, the undefeated. Oh, man. Going to square undefeated. Wow. Like my man Buzz.
00:25:32
Speaker
stone
00:25:36
Speaker
No, it's because clubber D said so what do you have on that do you have a knockout or a decision, sir? Well, I got decision it's gonna be because swars is a wrestler. It's gonna be a it's gonna be a boring fight Okay, I do not see it staying on the ground that much. There's gonna be a lot of swars only has like two knockouts Okay, she has five ah submissions. This is gonna be literally I'm taking you down, I'm gonna pound you out. You know, no pulses, two women. So I had nothing. I was about to say that, that's hilarious. No pulse. I was about to say no pulse. I got to ground a pound slash lay and pray a fight for Tatiana Suarez. Casual fans, you're not gonna like this fight. Everyone else, it's gonna be the wrestling. The wrestling is gonna be the, what's the word I'm looking for?
00:26:21
Speaker
The wrestling is going to be the the main factor in this fight. Now, I could do a caveat and say, if it goes less than five rounds, Waley will win by knockout. I think that can happen. If Suarez tries to stand up with her, she can get knocked out. I'm going to tell you that right now. But I think Suarez is going to take her down. It's going to be a boring fight. It's going to be kind of like,
00:26:43
Speaker
Pennington versus Pena a lot of just taking you down. I'm fighting for a takedown finally take you down last one two minutes at of the round and Do a little bit to to to to win the round. That's how I see this fight happen um Only caveat for all you betters out there if it goes less than five rounds if it goes less than you know decision It's gonna be way Lee. She's gonna knock her out. I got that either knock out a rough stoppage That's the only way I can see this fight going see if it goes the full distance Suarez if it goes less than that Way Lee will knock her out Knock out of what round just so i I have purposes here. I mean, we'll we'll say third be fun. Okay. And then would it be a majority or split decision or unanimous? Unanimous. It'll be unanimous. It'll be. Yeah. Okay. Yes. Shout out to Skywalker. We were just mentioning you earlier. out out Yeah. That's what I'm talking about.
00:27:35
Speaker

So salute my brother and yes, salute again to, oh Josh. Hey, I was about to say, I'm glad you reminded me because I was like, not not only is there no pause, but that's a play rewind and play again.

Jimmy Adams, Don King picked it up. Hey, check out the one with Oliver McCall. Yes, the Oliver McCall. Your boy, Omar, has an interview when with him after his rees as recent fight.

So we'll see what happens on the next one.
00:28:34
Speaker
Uh, no, beer and butter is that a beer and butter is right toughness via skill. It will be a fun match to watch for the women. Yeah. We'll check it out. Cause we'll see. you All right. Moving on to the main event. A middle yeah um champion. Oh, there it is. There it is. It's back. It's making the comeback.
00:28:55
Speaker
uh the middleweight championship of the world this is a rematch uh driscus duplexi uh versus sean strickland sean strickland was the original title holder gdp as they he's called came in and beat him for the title now he is giving a rematch to strickland 22 and 2 gdp sean strickland is 29 and six my friend what are your thoughts on this fight So the first fight was a split decision. I actually thought Strickland won that fight. I'm not even going to front. I thought he won that fight. They gave to DDP, and then DDP went all to beat Izzy, and now they're back here, and Strickland went to go ah beat Paulo Costa. And a split decision went, that should have been unanimous. And somebody just doesn't like Sean Strickland, because that Paulo Costa fight, they had that as a split decision. Even Costa was like, what's split? I got my ass with this whole fight. what do you what did What's going on here? so
00:29:49
Speaker
I they must not like him because he says whatever he wants to say and he's very brash. You know, he'll say things that you know, you know, he'd be saying somehow I followed him on your on your ex account somehow. I have no clue. Wow. But or maybe they just send me his post because we do m MMA and stuff a lot. But he was saying some wild wild stuff the past couple of weeks about different races and one of his friends who's Middle East. I was like, oh, wow, it's getting crazy over here. Oh, yeah. He's he's very ah He just doesn't care. And Sean Strickland, I will say this about him. When he, his fighting style, a lot of people think it's boring. He is like the only MMA fighter that does the Philly shell. Like he really is. He couldn't do nothing with the Philly shell. That's why he got knocked down a couple of times, the flash knocked down. It's, I never thought I would see the Philly shell. I mean, James Tony tried it when he fought a rainy couture and got taken down in two seconds, but he actually does the Philly shell and ah it's effective and fighters don't know what to do, but do with it. So.
00:30:47
Speaker
Um, I think with this fight with them, them fighting in ah Australia. Um, you know, I was gonna go down for the fight, but, uh, you know, i some of those, uh, Joey's down there and they'd be hating cause I'd be going to any mom's house, but, uh, Joey's.
00:31:02
Speaker
you i The Joey's not the damn Joey's. I'm trying to get to that pouch. I'm letting you but anyway and so i think this fight could be similar to the last fight but um i think they'll get it right this time
00:31:35
Speaker
okay I'm stealing. I'm going with Sean Strickland. I'm going with Strickland. He's going to get the belt back. I did it anyways. He's going to get the belt back. He's going to write his wrong and beat him. I feel that he should have won the first fight. He will correct it and win this fight. And the crummy part of this whole situation division is so trash.
00:32:03
Speaker
They can just do a rematch and nobody will care. Right. cause nobody or nobody else there's Nobody really right there to say, Hey, I want to fight. you It's, it's a, it's a trash division. So I honestly think that Dana white wants a rematch and do it in American soil. Cause the first fight I believe was in Canada. This fight's going to be in Australia. So get Sean Strickland back in American soil, but you know, do policies in South African, you know, I don't know if his fan base travels like that. I, who knows, but.
00:32:29
Speaker
I honestly think that Sean Strickland will win this fight. And this will be another unanimous, unanimous decision is he's going to, he'll get, they'll, they're going to write their wrong in this style. All right. I don't think DDP ain't no, ain't no diamond cutters coming to this time. I'm sorry. What is that? Shout out to your cousin who agrees with you. No, he doesn't. He agrees with, uh, he agrees with, uh, a DDP winning. I want Sean Strickland.
00:32:57
Speaker
oh Omar frozen. The freezing has coming on him. Don't worry, guys. We'll get this thing rocking and rolling. Where we at? lowcom Now back. Yeah, you froze for Uh for a while for three seconds. Anyways, um so Strickland one, uh what do you got for on the Strickland win? Oh, it's gonna be unanimous. It's it's gonna be unanimous. Okay. And is there any cover caveat? I mean,
00:33:29
Speaker
The way they fought last time, I can see it. No, I'm not gonna say a caveat. I'm not gonna do a caveat. No, no, we're good, we're good. Oh, zoom in. We're good, we're good. um I don't wanna do a caveat on this one because last time it was a split decision. ah I honestly feel that Shirkling won, even Dana White felt that Shirkling won. I don't see no difference that coming this fight after Sean's last performance. Duke Pussy is a good fighter, don't get me wrong, but I just think Styles make fights and his style, his style for Shirkling is just,
00:33:58
Speaker
Short is gonna be able to get off on him. Pause, you know, he's wow. I called it. I call it. So I think short I think certain is gonna keep it standing up. It's not gonna be too much of a grappling or wrestling fight. It's gonna be kind of like the Izzy fight where I think short is gonna keep him at bay with that Philly shell and and catch him do a lot of ah ah counter shots, you know, to his face.
00:34:29
Speaker
Who the hell is that? Oh, Spatty the Batty? No, that was Scissor Me Daddy. Scissor Me Daddy, yes. No, Paul. Thank you. I appreciate that. I put in a lot of time. Hey, yo. Oh, look who it is. Our brother. What up, John? That's the homie. That's the brother from another.
00:34:51
Speaker
Hey, yes, sir. You already know. Salute, brother. Thank you for tuning in, as always. Thank you all for tuning in. We're going to go into boxing. Make sure you subscribe to Ballin' Buds. You see it up at the top as a QR code? Now the numbers are going. I did like when I did the close-up. No, you're good. No worries, bro. I mean, we are together on this. We talk over each other. It's fine. I did like when I did the zoom in, though. The Crawford is so close now. He's like, ah.
00:35:19
Speaker
but uh anyways um that's actually not too bad i'm having a look at that what do you think you like this better or the other one i don't want a man behind me like that it's just okay it looks a little it looks a little something it looks a little shit up get out of here tarrant it looks like he's creeping he's creeping so hard on you yes Hey, shout out the Terps. We love the Terps. That's right. Shout out. Uh, your University of Maryland alum, of course. Uh, your cousin says I could see that, but DDP keeps surprising me with Whitaker and Izzy. What do you say to that? Yeah, no, he does. But I think Sean style is a little, you know what I'm saying? It's, it's gonna, it's gonna be like the first fight. You know what I'm saying? It was, it was a good fight. I liked DDP, but I think Sean Shirley's gonna, gonna take this one.
00:36:08
Speaker
All right. Well, uh, now that we've gone, uh, MMA and UFC, make sure you get those, uh, bets in, um, promise you one of these days we will be sponsored. Uh, by either Fandul draft Kings ESPN, Bette, Caesars, whoever, whoever, it doesn't matter. We will take any and all sponsors. Uh, and one day it will happen, but make sure you put your bets in club bangers from clubber D will make you money. Oh, that rhyme. That was dope.
00:36:35
Speaker
Club Bangers from Clubber D will make money. That was a bar. So make sure you put in a UD unanimous decision for Strickland over DDP to get the belt back and also a unanimous decision for Suarez Tatiana to become the new. You can hit your bets with a Wey-Lee winning by knockout. I don't know what, you know, just say third round. You just want to, just saying. Nothing wrong with that. You can always do Clubber's caveat.
00:37:02

Clarissa Shields Spotlight

00:39:12
Speaker
Now we move into boxing. Hey, I heard that one of the greatest of all time was fighting just recently. Can you tell me more about who graced us with their blessed presence?
00:39:32
Speaker
Grace of all time. You're the greatest of all time. You mean greatest woman of all time. Whoa. Correct me. Let's let's let's hit that bell. Hit that bell. Where's the bell at? Let's let's let's let's you know. Hold on. Hold on people. Let me let me get it ready for you. Okay. So, you'll be seeing this in the club. You're trying to buy it. Don't buy it. It's not it's not worth all. That's what you added. It's sounding like great. You know what I'm saying? But anyway, you just smack it. And you don't got the money anyways. Let me let me smack it. No, no, no. The the moms got the money. That's how I can buy this. I'm ok If you hear one of y'all's wives go, ooh, hey, sorry. what Anyway, it's a flashback. They go, ooh, what the hell was that? Anyways, the quotes, Clarissa Shields became undisputed at heavyweight this past weekend. And let me tell you something, the reason why she used to go with the greatest woman of all time, at 29, mind you, she's 29 years old,
00:40:31
Speaker
Two-time gold medalist, undisputed champion in three weight classes in boxing, three, okay? And also the youngest to be the youngest to have titles in three divisions, male or female. That's the reason why she is the quote. And if she, the girl, the woman she fought, uh, I think her last name was, uh, Perkins, I think so. She actually played basketball at, uh, at, uh, George Mason back in like, Oh, one should ask Dale to stay off, you know, they see it pillow hands, but she knocked her, she clocked her in the last round. And if she would have had more weight on her,
00:41:06
Speaker
If that girl wasn't probably 20, 30 pounds over that, the weight, if you saw the size difference, ridiculous. But if she was, was, was lighter in weight, she probably, she probably still sleeping right now. They have to wake her up. Hey, you're right. Wow. And the fight before that was just hilarious. That fight car was on the zone on Sunday night. The fight before that, they had two heavyweights fighting and the dude basically took the other guy out the ring, like a DDT and laid on him. And the ref counted like it was like the old school wrestling match. He got to 14 and another guy pushed him off. No.
00:41:36
Speaker
it how its moon Sloppy fight all the way. What? No, I gotta watch this. Wait, what is it called? I got a guy Walker posted it on his uh, on his uh, Instagram and Facebook. But the dude is literally not go like, did he got DDT? Dude pushed him off, ran in the ring at the last second at the nick of time and made the bell at hilarious because of boxing. Well, you know, but I love how you said, did you say the referee?
00:42:04
Speaker
I'm telling you, it was, you thought Earl Heppner was, was, was, was counting out a book of tea or somebody like that. ah I've got to see that. That sounds hilarious. Check out, check out.
00:42:21
Speaker
up the Man Skywalker Skywalker boxing media challenges page add him on on Instagram add him on Facebook aure YouTube check them out. You'll see you'll see that videos hilarious is So so let me ask you about Clarissa Shields then now because she is 16 and oh and it's not like she KOs everybody She only has three tails in boxing, but she's a dominant and Dominant fighter even though she did not knock her out here till the 20 seconds left um It was it was on her way to a very dominant victory on all of the scorecards. She has also now ah become the first boxer ah to win unspeeded or this boxer to win undisputed titles at three different weight classes a woman phenomenal
00:43:08
Speaker
So yeah, tell me more about that and how impressive that is and especially for ah um And I don't know actually I want to ask you this too How much of a difference does that make moving up in weight classes for a woman versus a man? It's it's the same. I think it's the same. It's just how you retain the weight and uh, you know how that power translates um because Boxing a lot of people want to see knockouts. Okay, but some people Want to see skill, you know, we'll see how you break someone down, you know, and shields can do that um She's a phenom. I don't think we'll see another female like her. Of course. You got your Katie Taylor's your Amanda Serrano's your Alicia Bumgardner's your Michaela Mayer's. Okay, Kayla, Michaela Mayer. Yeah fighters like that. They're very good, you know, but they're at the lighter weight so
00:43:59
Speaker
I think Crystal Shields gets looked at like those fighters because she's not in the same weight class as them. She's in a more heavier weight class, but she's moved up in these heavy weight classes and and and looked good.
00:44:11
Speaker
um I feel like for her, you know, it's kind of like when Leila Ali and Christy Martin were fighting, you can't get mad at their era if there's no one else for them to fight. Right. Well, of course, she was doing, she's cleaning the those divisions out, saying, OK, there's nobody to fight for me to fight. Put them in front of me, and I want to get all the belts. OK, if it's that easy, somebody should have done it already, and no one has. So that's always my kind of argument when people say, well, she ain't fighting nobody. Well, if it's that easy, then someone should have already done it, you know? So I don't want to hear that.
00:44:40
Speaker
Uh, just like in a while, you know, in a while it's not his fault. He weighs 122 23, whatever pounds and he's, but he's dominating that division or or those of divisions. It is what it is. You know, if it was so easy, somebody else would have already done it. That's how I look at it. Josh from 86 boxing says, certainly the most accomplished greatest is subjective though. He says, do you think that there is, you you don't think that there's anybody greater though in your eyes? Uh,
00:45:08
Speaker
ah See where he says subjective I get where you I want to get recess objective because it's all about the competition as well. That's why I don't put the monster over Terrence Crawford and it it's not his fault, you know, ah you can say.
00:45:23
Speaker
um Katie Taylor is the greatest, you know? And the competition she's faced, people, oh, you know what, undisputed, you know, uh, fought Sorano twice, basically beat everybody she sees fault and those fighters, you know, been through some stuff. Shields, you know, competition is not the same level, but she still accomplished a lot. So it's kinda, I, it is, it is subjective, but you know, I, I kinda go towards shields because She could, she could have just stayed at one division, just stayed there and just, you know, ah I'm okay right here and just fight whoever.

Women in Boxing

00:45:59
Speaker
But she decided to keep moving up, collecting belts, moving up, collecting belts. Cause she wants to make her mark in the boxing industry as a whole and put, be in the record books. You know, so people see her, you know, years and years, decades from now and be like, Oh man, she was a, she was a beast back then. Then it could be, Oh, who did she fight? It doesn't matter. She's still in the record books for getting all these belts. So yeah, it's subjective. It's it's always subjective. Cause it's hard to say who's the greatest, you know, you say Leila Ali is, but
00:46:24
Speaker
you know, she never fought ah Lucille, Lucille Riker, I think it's her name, she never fought her. Or ah she never fought, first name blank me, but Wolf, who was a Kirtland's trainer, you know, so Christy Martin, that's another Hall of Famer right there. She fought Leila Ali, we saw what happened. So, you know, it is what is, and you can say, oh, well, Christy Riker fought, the girls couldn't fight. So, you know, it's it it's it's very subjective.
00:46:51
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, definitely is. I mean, obviously, as the as the saying goes, the old adage beauty is in the eye of the beholder, especially when it comes to fighting who you like and who you think is the greatest is really going to come down to your preferences for fighters as well as what you think makes someone the greatest versus speaking of the greatest. Look at the shirt. I mean, this one's better than the other one. And then you put all of Ron says, you know, I like I like I like better when, uh, when, uh, when basketball had like nicknames, you know, like I wanted, wanted Earl Ashley kneecap Johnson to play. You know what I'm saying? I wanted, I wanted finger roll with Monroe to play. yeah and she lina His nickname was action kneecap. Is that what that what you had? Tremendous.
00:47:42
Speaker
but hankways maho you know was ti i hope yeah but on I need you to describe to the audience how he would have come up. I need an origin story. How would his nickname have been action kneecap? What would have happened to bring him to this point? Well, because he had a small shorts and back then the cocoa butter industry wasn't, wasn't dominated by Palmer's. So he came out with the small shorts and didn't warm up. He was, he was, he was dry pause. So we game he wasn't warmed up. It wasn't, you know, uh, properly, uh,
00:48:12
Speaker
lubricated. Oh, no that's terrible. Pause again. Pause again.
00:48:19
Speaker
yeah Action kneecap is one of the greatest nicknames I've ever heard in my life. All right. Whoo. He says agree. Shields is all about that action. If she were in the one forties, there would be some amazing matches.
00:48:34
Speaker
Well, she she called out ah her and Alicia Bumgarner. He was like, hey, can you meet one forty seven? I got you. So when she does MMA, she's I think she does MMA at one forty seven or one fifty four on the two. But she can get down to there. She's called out Layla Ali, Chris Cyborg. I wish we see the Cyborg fight. I would love to see that fight just for, you know, Eson giggles.
00:48:56
Speaker
oh I mean, I think Savannah Marshall who's a great test that was that was like five a year or nominee five a year when they fall. She bringing her to America because she sells out in Detroit. She that little Caesar Center where the Pistons play. She sold that out multiple times, so she has the fan base in in her city. um So I would love to see you know her getting those big fights and also she mentioned if.
00:49:20
Speaker
Crawford and Canelo fight. She wants to be on the undercard or come in event when I think she deserves to be on that. You know what I'm saying? If you're going to put a like Jay Paul's done with Amanda Serrano giving her that exposure, you know, I think Chills deserves the same thing too. So I would love to see that happen. Yeah, no, I mean, that would be awesome. Obviously going between different weights can be hard as we know for fighters. But if you're usually able to fight weight,
00:49:49
Speaker
I'm wearing actually make fights happen. That's what we do. But at the time, I mean, it's my, in my opinion, what I did, but I, you would probably put you on actually now in my eyes, in the last years or so, especially men are the ones that can you, there you go. You're back. It's going in and out for some, Oh, okay.
00:50:19
Speaker
Okay, cool. I was just saying that uh, okay, cool. Thank you. I was just saying that um That for for women in specific versus the men over ah especially like the last 10 15 years if see in in my eyes at least and you tell me if i'm if i'm incorrect about this It seems to me that the women are the only ones going out and making the good fights, not worried about records. And I know they don't make as much money and stuff like that. But it seems to me that that that the women are more likely to go out and do the great fights and take the chances that the men don't take. What do you what do you say to that? Yeah, because the women's market is more ah it's not they they don't. I'm trying to say it's not be rude.
00:51:02
Speaker
um
00:51:05
Speaker
They're them right now. They have them right now. The women currently in boxing don't have the leverage to say, I don't want to fight this person um because their exposure to the casual fans isn't like the the exposure to men's boxing has. They don't have the same sponsors. They don't have the same packing or promoters as the men. So the women are hungry. They want to fight. They want to put on these performances and get more and more fans where the men, some of them have Have have a better advantage with that already and once they get to a certain level They can choose to fight somebody they shouldn't fight when they should be fighting the number one contender Or they cannot dare to be great like the women, you know because women They have to put themselves out there They have to fight these fights and that's why I got more respect for the women fighters than the male fighters only a few male fighters I want to actually fight but the women fighters they're the ones that it really went up
00:52:01
Speaker
get in the ring and prove who's the best and get that notoriety and get that money the same pay or close to what the men are getting. You know, that that's a different story when it comes to pay, but it's just, they don't have the leverage to say, no, I don't want to fight this person.
00:52:14
Speaker
but okay no that makes a lot of sense okay cool well awesome thank you thank you for that uh informing our fans here uh so let's move it on in the boxing world there was a specific fight you wanted to talk about this past weekend i'll go ahead and introduce it and you can give us why you thought this fight was so um important for and crazy

Fulton vs. Figueroa Rematch

00:52:35
Speaker
for people to know about. Former unified champion, Steven Fulton Jr. captured the WBC featherweight world champion with an impressive unanimous decision across the cards over former two division world champion, Brandon, the heartbreaker Figueroa in their championship rematch. Why did you think this should have be a fight that everyone should put their eye on?
00:52:57
Speaker
Well, for all those who listened to that YouTube short, I put out there, I put out a multiple streams, put on my TikTok, I put it on YouTube, the Ball and Buzz page. I put it on a my page on Instagram, put it on Facebook to let you guys know ahead of time who I was picking for both fights and who was going to win. If you listened, you made money. If you didn't listen,
00:53:23
Speaker
You got dirty fingernails right now. were going down when I know you just looked down. Look at your lips too, they're ashy. So, Steven Full, Steven Cool Boy Fulton, you know, came out looking like an extra from Def Jam Bandetta on PlayStation.
00:53:39
Speaker
This man straight out of Philly. Okay. This man had the George on with the makeshift Tim's and boxing knees. And then he had like the, the, the, the striped socks back in the day, like the, the high socks with the, with the, with the green joints, you don't say the green stripes and the socks. He had the, I don't even know if they were Tim's. I don't even know what out of their gyms, Tim's polo assassins, what he had on boots and jean shorts in a boxing.
00:54:08
Speaker
in a boxing match and put on a clinic straight out of Philly. So, you know, it's not, don't, don't blame it on the New York cat. He's a Philly cat. Big fan, big fan of Cool Boy Z. He's won a few boxes that dare to be great and fought the monster over in Japan where, you know what I'm saying? Is what is, but regain his title. I thought it would be a split decision. I'm not gonna lie. I didn't say split decision because the first fight was close. It was hella close, but this fight,
00:54:35
Speaker
Oh, he put on a clinic, you know, saying, and to do that rocking Brooklyn brawler gear is, is, is diabolical, diabolical. Like if you look at what he was wearing, you thought he just got off work, uh, uh, uh, working on a pavement. You know what I'm saying? I swear. Will you guys have a chance? Google.
00:54:53
Speaker
Steve Fulton, look at his outfit, and you'd be like, damn, he boxed? And in 2025, you think he's fighting in the Negro League or something like that, you know what I'm saying? Joshua probably done a special on him, boxing in 1930s, doing it in his attire, you know? Shoo, Jack Johnson was the man to do those shorts. You know, you know, I'm always, I always get you on point. Here we go. Boom. Look at this. There you go. How about that?
00:55:21
Speaker
look at that tell me he didn't just get off work uh doing pavement okay tell me he did not now now i need to say as a a ranking member for as long as i can remember that i bought shoes i have always I've always been a person that wore Timbalands. You know that I have multiple pairs. yeah I was just wearing some last night, the country box. I got a funny story about that. I met ah one of ah well, Jimmy Adams, the owner of country box to promoter. I met his, I met one of his right hands. I'm not going to put their government out there, but mad cool dude. And we were chopping it up, talking about Tim's and I was, and we got into a little conversation and I was like, yo, Tim's are East coast. and He was like, nah, Tim's are,
00:56:08
Speaker
NY and I was like, yeah, but they're not NY only I'm from DC and we rock Tim's all the time, too So sir, what do you think about that? Do you think Tim's are an NY only thing or should be an NY only thing? What do you think about that? Tim's are a staple of the NY it's you gotta look at it like this DC area. We're big on flight posits. We're big on Nike boots ah new balances, ah you know Trying to think what else is big in DC area I represent Woodbridge, Virginia just saying but uh You know, Tim's to say New York got it on chokehold. It's a yes and no. I would say it's the East coast thing. I would say it probably stops right here in Virginia. I don't think they're rocking Tim's in Atlanta. They're not rocking Tim's in Florida. They're not rocking Tim's in the Carolinas. They probably stop in like the DC threshold and that's about it. You know what I'm saying? Um,
00:57:05
Speaker
the It's it's it's you know, it it's a New York thing, but it's become commercialized. You got Louis Vuitton, Tim's, you know what I mean? You got ah different collabs with Tim's now. So it's not you can't get mad at them saying, you know, it's not only New York thing, but I would say it's I'll say New York adjacent. Okay, it's stops at DC and up. How about that? Yeah, no, I mean, and that's what I told him. He's from Charlotte. So I was like, oh, so you're not East Coast enough that you would know. much about the chims. Uh I know, right? Uh he kind of says he put down the jackhammer and picked up the gloves. Yeah. Pretty much. I mean, look at him. He just, he said, yeah, screw this and one. What a world title.
00:57:44
Speaker
And that's crazy that he won. And I really do think those are gyms though. I think you're right. They are gyms or fems. They've got to be Teddy shoes that look like like Timberland. I don't, I don't know if that's a Timberland tree. It might be an Okinawa tree from, uh, from a karate kid. Cause he might just just cut it a little, trimmed it and put it on that blue. I don't know. That's a Timberland. Uh, you know,
00:58:08
Speaker
I wish I wish we could zoom in. I wish we could zoom in further, but we're not going to be able to see the the Timberland sign on one of those. We like you up. We would those are butter. Those are those are those are those are cultured butter. Was it cultured butter clarified butter, those ain't cultured butter. Well, you lords of the underground, didn't you say Def Jam Bandetta? That's that's tremendous. You look like an extra from Def Jam Bandetta. That's great.
00:58:37
Speaker
Oh, man. All right. Let's keep it moving. Oh, man. If you want more of these laughs, make sure you subscribe to Ball and Buzz and hit that like button for us. The bonsai tree. Tremendous. Fantastic.

00:59:01

00:59:12
Speaker
86 86 boxing. Josh says I must admit I thought Figaro would beat him at this weight. He was thoroughly defeated. Let's say you. Well, sorry, ah I was I was throwing it out. Let's say that's what's up. Figaro would beat him things.
00:59:29
Speaker
I thought Figueroa kinda was just grabbing a lot. He was more active, but he wasn't laying the better shots to me. He wasn't laying the better shots. Okay, all right, cool. Nah, Tim's made it all the way to ATL in the prime JZ era, really? They made it all the way down south? I don't know about that. Y'all was wearing poo poo boots, y'all. That's what I thought. That's what I thought.
00:59:56
Speaker
knock off, you know, yeah a maybe a few war teams down in Atlanta, but y'all, Eli and whatever else that, you know. Oh, not Eli. And that's probably why, because we always thought everything that they wore down South was like Bama ish. So we were like, we like feel I was out of style. Fubu was out of style. But I remember one pair of Fubu that they released that were boots that I was just hyped about. They were all white, like snow white and had like black trim. I was like, Oh, those are beautiful. And I wanted to buy them, but I never did because they were Fubu. I know I last pair of teams I bought was probably like, I was like 21.
01:00:34
Speaker
They were all black joints, the suede joints. Yeah, that's the last Timbs I bought. I just, yeah, and I'm good. The boots I got now are like Kohon and shit like that. I don't i can ah can't do the Timbs no more. Hey, I'm still with you Timbs. Don't worry. I am a lifelong customer. You got me for life at least. Josh agrees. He said, yeah, he didn't look too good. So, all right, cool.
01:00:57
Speaker
Well, let's keep it moving. Then we're

Benavidez vs. Morrell Analysis

01:01:00
Speaker
done with that one. And now we are going to go ahead and get into the David Benavidez versus David Morrell. This is going to be a huge fight. Uh, what are your thoughts, my friend? Well, I mean, I think it lived up to it. Uh, everybody that I was with, I was with my homeboy Lewis was with my man Reuben.
01:01:23
Speaker
We were at the bar watching it. We were, you know, always were super size for this fight. We've been waiting for this fight. Everybody. I know that's a boxing fan has been waiting for this fight. And this is the fight that it's a non title fight, but as very, as a lot of title implications, even though I didn't like what David would have been to set after the fight. Um, this is a boxing purists. This is what we wanted to see. Okay.
01:01:47
Speaker
Two young bulls going at it. Okay. We had the pride of the Mexican monster going against pride of Cuba. You know, I was watching with a Cuban feller and he was, he was a little, little hyped up early rounds, early rounds. I'll tell you what, you know, what you have to do with David Benavidez, the reason why Canelo doesn't want to fight him. He's like, he, he's six too. He's a, he's a tall dude. He's my height. How, and he likes to come forward. How are you going to stop him from coming forward? Morrell had a good plan. You know what I'm saying? And he was cracking them a couple of times.
01:02:16
Speaker
Especially in the third round, but if you do not stop that man from coming forward, what are you going to do? Okay. You just try to survive. And that's what my rail did towards it. Uh, I want to say, man, probably about seventh round on up. He was just trying to survive in there, you know, and not kind of like how Caleb plant, not as bad as Caleb plant, but, uh, he just wanted to survive, you know, and, and they've been a beat has proved that even at light heavyweight power still there.
01:02:41
Speaker
He knocked Morrell down. Um, you know, he, he proved that he is a top dog and I would love to see him fight the winner of the ball and better be, uh, but he said he wants to take a break, which fucking sucks, but, uh, we'll see. I know a lot of people are arguing about. Did Morrell knock him down? Yes and no. He hit him on the arm. He lost his balance. Gloves touch the mat. That's a knockdown. I know they didn't call it for.
01:03:05
Speaker
Uh, when, when, uh, Mayweather fought a Zab Judah, they didn't call that. I know, I know, but technically it is a knockdown. And then there are some people got mad at how, uh, he rocked them right after the, after the bell rung, I think it was in a ninth or 10th round.
01:03:21
Speaker
Morell rocked him right after the bell run, but Ben Vida's hit him right after the bell. So, I mean, Ben Vida's was on a, you know what, I would say the word, I might be able to say it down since I knew a person, a new president, but I'm not going to say the word. He was on, you know, what street and Ben Vida's was woozing. He was doing a little stinky leg, but he was like, Hey, I got hit after. And then that was the same round that Morell knocked him out, knocked him down. They took a point away.
01:03:45
Speaker
And I thought that was a little too much, right? I don't think they should took ah take a point away, but um this was a hell of a fight. I mean, this was a great fight.

It was definitely, uh, morel was, was getting with the benefits just took over.

Canelo's Boxing Decisions

01:07:43
Speaker
We first had a few months ago a signing
01:07:47
Speaker
by Turkey, Alashik, the some people will call him the savior of boxing. He signed what was looking to be a dream fight. And we need to know from the boxing insider and expert himself, Clubber D, the combat G, is this fight still going to happen? And what fight am I talking about? You know, we all know, Ellis, you know what, from Nebraska, going against Campbell Alvarez and ah good crawford tearence thing this is what I'm hearing now. The ring magazine who Turkey allahik bought. Um they're saying that the fights there there's been reports that the fight was on in September and the fights off now. Oh wow. Well, now they're saying they're not going to fight which is just what? Damn it. It's just that because reports are you know, you want me to get in with a
01:08:39
Speaker
Benavidez said what he said. He had an interview with Andre Ward and what he kind of mentioned. um He mentioned that, ah you Alvarez turned down 75 million to fight him. So he could have fought David Benavidez for 75 million, turned that down. In this fight with Terrence Crawford, he was going to make pride around the same 75 million and that money on the pay-per-view buys, turning that down. Wow. The rumors are saying they're just about whatever, that Canelo will fight Jake Paul in May. He's going to move up to fight Jake Paul.
01:09:17
Speaker
um And they're worried about him gaining weight, fighting Jake Paul, and then moving down to fight Terrence Crawford in September. That's the built-in excuse that they're kind of going with, which is bullshit. It's complete bullshit. And my thing would with Canelo, if he fights Jake Paul, I have no problem with him fighting Jake Paul. Do what you want to do.
01:09:38
Speaker
but If you're going to find Jake Paul, let the belts go. Let the belts go. and Not holding vision up much longer. Let all those, let the three belts that you have, let them go. And then do what you want to do. That's my issue with Canelo. It's always been my issue with Canelo. Stop cherry picking who you want to fight and defend the belts against.
01:09:59
Speaker
and you're holding up the division. There's number one, Morrell had to wait four years. Benavidez was interim champion for like three three or four years. They were number one contenders for these belts, but no one put the ah put you to the fire to fight them. So stop holding the vision up, let the belts go, and then do what you want to do with these prize flights. That's my opinion on Canelo. I completely agree with you. um You know, we both feel the same way about this, and we're going to talk more about this in the fan mailbag because we got some responses.
01:10:28
Speaker
for some people in the YouTube comments. But you know, he does cherry pick, as you mentioned, he is on the path of the of the late of the late career, Floyd Mayweather, the late stage career of Floyd Mayweather was pulling.
01:10:45
Speaker
um But at least, ah you know, I have nothing for this. I just, I think that Canelo had so, could have been one of the biggest legends ever in boxing and just, it's just sad that, and we talked about this earlier, it's just sad that these boxers cannot dare to be great as much as possible, because not only would it make them look better, but they're also gonna make more money out of it. So I mean, I don't understand like why,
01:11:11
Speaker
why we're we're getting to this point where, I mean, Canelo's not even undefeated at this point. You're just keeping the belts. And that's really all you're doing, but everybody knows you don't deserve those belts if you're not fighting people like Benavidez.
01:11:25
Speaker
fuck and So out to 86 boxing. He agreed with these that ESPN just had breaking news update start stating the negotiations for Canelo Alvarez and Jake Paul are on. So
01:11:39
Speaker
And so sad stated boxing right there. Let me follow up with a question there for you. Then if he were, let's just say, I, it's not going to happen, but let's just say all of the the belts came together and we're like, okay, you want to do this farce with Jake Paul, just to make money. We're all stripping you of the belt. What would then happen in that division? Just fantasy purposes. Uh, that's a good question. I mean, morel coming off the law. So you can say, you know, what let me move back down to one.
01:12:06
Speaker
uh, 68 Kayla plant who's been waiting for quite some time can be like, Hey, let me, let me get some title shots. Uh, if one of the Charlie brothers get his mind right, he can move up or either both of them can move up, but they get their mind right. And one act, like they want a box right there. They're right there. Uh, Dimitris Andre, he's kind of on his last leg. You got the young boys like, uh, uh, David Diego Pacheco who just fought. Um, you have, uh,
01:12:33
Speaker
Uh, Billy and and Billy got him. He's right there. Um, you have trying to think what's the other, other feller, uh, like super middleweight guy. There's one more and Billy Pacheco somebody mine in the chat. I know, I know, I know, somebody I know i'll talk about or Skywalker, but.
01:12:56
Speaker
You know, they, they have options, uh, uh, the beaches, androids, if you want to, if you would come back out of retirement, you know, or not out of retirement, but just, just fight. He's another one that can price still a belt too. They have, they have a couple of options of 168. Yeah. There we go. And Billy and glasses. That's the other one. Yeah. There we go. Pacheco and Billy and glasses. So those are young boys that are right there, but check on, I like the check. He just fought, uh, Terrence Crawford's guy, uh, too cold. Steven Nelson, um, recently on in the zone, which is a good fight. Um, but.
01:13:25
Speaker
Uh, you know, Pacheco, he's, he's, he's, so he's very young and Billy, I think I believe probably the one, uh, who's right. Cause they were saying he could be Canelo's opponent and may also, uh, Rossy go tomorrow, but you know, it's. That division is kind of meh, because morale and Benvias had to move up. Cause Canelo, they want to be able to fight them. So yeah that's no you're right. And he's like, like a 86 boxing, uh, said he blatantly dust bit of meat as we know that your cousin comes in bag Nello, right? Yeah. We, we know, we know he's, uh,
01:13:54
Speaker
Says ah there you go. Right here. Can't blame him, he says, but sad for the sport of boxing. Well, I mean, people didn't stop buying his stuff. People stopped buying his stuff. They wouldn't, uh, uh, you know, uh, Berlin. Oh, he's still, he's, he's a prospect Edgar Berlin. He's still a prospect to me. I mean, he needs to, he should even got that fight.
01:14:15
Speaker
as many fights as he's been and I'm not, I am not pleased with his progress. I'll tell you that much from the, from the, where he started. Oh, shout out Troy moro Morgan. We got the like and the subscribe. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. sure I appreciate you brother.
01:14:31
Speaker
hey boy Thank you, we appreciate it. ah Yeah, you know, sometimes I'm getting frozen on here, we know that, the Freeze Master. Yeah, Yeet, we got that Jay Uso. Yeet, we got that Jay Uso. Let's go. Well, he did win the Royal Rumble, huh? He did, he was yeeting all over the place. I love it. i He's trash. I mean, is he ah is he the greatest wrestler? No. Is he one of the greatest tag team wrestlers of all time? Yes.
01:14:58
Speaker
is he Did he get a catchphrase in a personality sort like Daniel Bryan? He's killing it. He's killing it. Right. um pull out just his in in I don't watch so much. I did watch that the Royal Rumble and his come to the ring stuff phenomenal his work in a ring. It doesn't match coming into the ring. So that's all okay. I agree with that. I agree. ah But he's going to be able to fight somebody for the championship probably going to be Gunther at WrestleMania and then John Cena is back. He did not make himself win the Rumble, which I thought he was going to do.
01:15:32
Speaker
But he did ease' is entering the elimination chamber, which now you have to expect that he's going to win because they're going to have to give Cena that 17th title to beat Ric Flair's record. I mean, they have to at this point.
01:15:46
Speaker
Sure. and You're like, ah sure. You're like, oh, I mean, you know how how you know where Ric Flair had the record for title? Yeah, I know that. I know that. and But John Cena just meanss means so much to the WWF. You know what I mean? to Yeah, he's he see's a staple. he He carried them when there wasn't that much popularity. Hey, and you are carrying us along. We appreciate y'all for tuning in.
01:16:11
Speaker
We are about to hit that fan mailbag and take those questions But please as always make sure you are subscribed at Ball and Buds B-A-L-L-A-N-D B-U-D-S and please hit that like button for us So YouTube hits us up in the algorithm i even if it's after if you're watching the replay It still helps any like any comment YouTube will serve us up to more people. So thank you for tuning in We really appreciate that here at Ball and Buds Let's get into the fan mail bag. First of all, um this is a question from comes out of San Diego, California. ah Heart of Fire is the username. Thank you for the mail bag. Why would Ryan Garcia, who is now going to be fighting for the WBA championship, why would he enter into Vada?

Ryan Garcia and VADA Concerns

01:17:08
Speaker
What do you have to say about that? Well, the racist cheater would enter in because he knows that that's the only way boxing moves. you You have to enter to prove that you are clean. And he obviously isn't a clean fighter. I mean, if you look at Tank Davis, Tank Davis, the reason why Tank Davis drained him, because Tank said that we all know you're using something. And that's why Tank drained him down when they fought. When he fought ah Haney, he came in overweight on purpose and, you know, got caught with what's in the system. so He's supposed to be fighting Roy Ramirez for the, I think it's Walter, which I'm moving to one 47. I mean, the guy hasn't made weight in his last two fights.
01:17:48
Speaker
Wow. I guess he's moving up to 147. It's going to be for the regular belt, which I thought the WBA a was going to get rid of the regular belt because stay on us is fighting boots in, in, uh, Atlantic city, April 12th for unification bout. Um, so this isn't for the actual WBA titles. It has to be for the regular and regular the one contender. No, no, no, no. They,
01:18:10
Speaker
They promoted it as the WPA champion. That's what we magazine did. So that's what the air ones. That's why I was like, what are they talking about? Right? Everyone's kind of, you know, uh, don't certain way about that. But I mean, he's probably going to be rolling Ramirez. It's, I don't see him losing that fight, but yeah, he's, he's back in Nevada. Cause he knows that Turkey, he met with Turkey. I chic. I guess he apologized or.
01:18:35
Speaker
said whatever, because he had some remarks to say about black people, ah black men, black women, um Jewish folks, and Muslims. So I guess he had apologized to Turkey-Lashik face-to-face about what he said about Muslims and, you know, Turkey-Lashik will work with them.
01:18:51
Speaker
You know, so hey and if you want to interview with us, you're gonna have to apologize to us too. You racist piece of shit Anyways, uh, you know how we feel about him on this show and I apologize to hearts of fire I believe the end of that question was sarcastic but I asked it in a way that wasn't but I think they agree with you like I think it was more of a But i'm just reading it off emails so talk for me to tell but I think it was more of a why would he enter vada when he knows he's you know, dirty kind of thing. Anyways, all right. We got some comments here. 86, Bocking Pitbull and Fierro had the fight of the year thus far. What do you say about that? I concur 100%. All right. Adam Hurley, shout out. Thank you for tuning in. We appreciate it. Appreciate it, Adam. It says Crawford would Canelo Jager's ass. I don't. Oh, okay. Sorry. There's the other word. beat Okay. Got it. That's what I was thinking, but I was like, paul yeah The rumor now that but a lot of people were saying is that, uh, Crawford knew that he was going to fight Canelo for so long that he's been putting on muscle a certain way. Okay. That's not going to hinder his movement. Uh, and I think can I was probably scared, you know what I'm saying? Like, cause Crawford is taller and he has a longer arm, arm reach than Canelo. And it's not like Canelo has one punch knockout power. He hasn't done that.
01:20:11
Speaker
You know, it was less than somebody out one bunch. So and that was the thing you were worried about was the weight difference in the move up in weight class. You had a size. It's just, you know, someone beat on your arms, just hitting you, you know, in your guard, it's, it wears on you. So, but they're saying that Crawford's already been training to put on size and keep it speed and things of that nature. So, uh, it's one of those things where but that fight does happen. I would have to see Paul's ahead of time. I would have to see.
01:20:41
Speaker
Crawford's body ahead of time. Oh, forty okay. You want if you want to see the like but see how I put the weight on Like Charlo he did Charlo dirty. He made it. He weighed him a little later in the day Charlo wasn't on his nutrition. You know saying so, you know, it is what it is. So you ah so you So you're saying it's like Bailey It all went to her cheeks.

Speaker
Let it toss me on out. Go on. Hey, she said yeah I can't help it away to my cheeks. Shout out i early. Smash that subscribe button. We appreciate you, brother. And Clubber D, I thought that about going to that boot stay on his fight may not, though, have another boxing thing as well. Well, you know, you are the superstar referee. If guys don't know, Josh is a referee as well. So if you aren't going, if you think about going, let me know, because I got a couple of folks that we might just make that trip.
01:21:35
Speaker
ah April 12th head up there to boardwalk in Manx City. So You know Omar might say you don't I'm get on the plane. I meet y'all up there. You never know. No, no, no, no, no You forget Omar will be back in April. I'll be back. I can go It was back April like April 7th. I'm coming back. Okay Oh, let's do this. Yes. Last time we went to the city last time we went to a lady city for a boxing match. You remember you remember it was a it was a sad day for me, but it's okay. No, it was a good day. It was a good day because it was Canelo beat Afonso Gomez. No, I'm talking about when, uh, uh, what's his name? Cheated, uh, Coco. We didn't go to that fight.
01:22:19
Speaker
We didn't go to that fight? No, Cotto won when we fought. Cotto beat El Paso Gomez. Oh, OK. Cool, cool, cool. OK. Margarito's on undercard. He was on undercard. Oh, OK. Is that a Mexican? Yeah, the gloves. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, Canelo won that fight. Canelo won his fight. OK. Got it. I still have the Puerto Rican gloves. I had bought from that fight. Yeah, we definitely had to do that. That sounds awesome. All right. That's right. I'll tell y'all that story another time. Which one was that? When I was lactose intolerant, it had a rental.
01:22:49
Speaker
Yeah, we don't want to see no and then I came out. I saw the deaf people fighting. I thought they were getting there in a gang. It's a long story. Y'all tell you that later. I've never seen drunk people for my life. It was hilarious.
01:23:02
Speaker
Adam Hurley says Canelo saw him at 168. Uh, Oh shit. He's not too small at 168. Yeah. That's what we're going to see. That's what company was saying. Uh, I was going to take it easy peasy, but half he done. Where's John Ryder? Oh, John Ryder. So that knock, so that fight when i was done in Nashville with Omar. We did a show. Yeah. That was, that was the same one. That was the same day that I called the, uh, Sterling getting knocked out by O'Malley in the second round. And we did that show by the pool, your rooftop.
01:23:30
Speaker
All right. I remember that shout out in Nashville. I like being back. It's fun. It was stars again. Oh, and we got a impromptu email that just popped in a couple of minutes ago from DA out of Raleigh. And he wants to he wants to agree. Well, it's not as much of a question.
01:23:49
Speaker
is he's he's agreeing with you and saying that the Tim's extended from New York to about the D.C. area. But he also said that he does not believe that Atlanta or the South was a place where Tim's were abundant and wanted to know your response to that. I agree. I mean, Tim's aren't really a I think even in the workforce, Tim's aren't like the choose to use the boost to use. So as far as fashion,
01:24:19
Speaker
They did come to DC area, but a lot of DC cast will tell you they rock Nike boots. You know what I'm saying? Like Nike boots were big in DC, but we still rock Tim's as well. um and
01:24:32
Speaker
Down South, I just don't, yeah, they weren't they weren't really rocking Tim's like that. That's so that's why I say like probably around here, it's probably it, you know, as far as the abundance of Tim's, oh you know, cause it's out there, like because they had lugs, they had, ah sir up here playing boots or whatever.
01:24:50
Speaker
hidden at the pure player you're playing yeah echo booth You know, anything but tims you know saying a rock duck
01:24:59
Speaker
I just had the most mash of flashback to one time when I was younger. I might have been in high school or something like that. Maybe middle school and I was out shopping. I was out with my mom for some reason and we're at the we're at the shoe store and we're at the shoe store. She We're at the shoe store. We're at the shoe store. We're at the shoe store. We're at the shoe store. knew I was looking for boots. She knew I was looking for boots because I always wear Timbs. And this was actually around the time with those white lugs actually around the same time. And we were in the store and she was like, what about these? And she holds up some pure players. And I was like, no, I am not going to school and getting made fun of with some pure players on my feet. You're making the real shit, mom. Got them two cartons of cigarettes on your feet.
01:25:48
Speaker
ah Adam Hurley, thank you, brother. We really appreciate this. Look at this. First time to seen you guys and the sub, that's two, that's two in 30 minutes on the new subs there. ah There we go. Hopefully you find an old video you like. Hopefully the the new videos youll you'll enjoy. So appreciate all you guys, man. Seriously. And before we wrap on this thing out, we had like two people watching, maybe one person watching. So, you know, the fact that we got to where we are now, it's amazing. Keep on rolling.
01:26:17
Speaker
Thank you all so much. We appreciate that support. Make sure you subscribe to ball and buds B A L L A N D B U D S. As he said, for everything, make sure you hit that like button. Um, we have one last thing to do. We are going to go to the YouTube comments over the past few weeks as Canelo has been in the news more.
01:26:34
Speaker
With the crawford, um, you know fight in in the works and then now possibly not There have been a lot of comments on your all-time five mexican boxers So if y'all don't know this is one of the best shorts that we've ever had on our channel clubber d Did an all-time top five boxers from mexico and this thing got oh I think it's like almost 1500 views now I haven't checked in a little bit but he had a lot of minutes over the past few weeks taking, uh, you know, considerable consternation with his list of people. So first of all, we are going to remind you who was in Coverdee's top five. Number five, Eric Morales. Uh, number four, Marco Antonio Barrera. Number three, and of this is going to be one of the main points of contention here of everybody,
01:27:27
Speaker
da cannelo alvarez who we just talked about so at two Juan Manuel Marquez and at number one, the legend Julio Cesar

Clubber D's Mexican Boxers List Critique

01:27:39
Speaker
Chavez. So now that you have that in mind, that's Clubber D's top five Mexican boxers. And this was done last year. So this was about, actually it's probably almost two years ago now. So do keep that in mind um when you think about his list. Now let's go to some comments and then we're going to get Clubber D's response. So I'm going to give you a little bit of an example.
01:27:58
Speaker
eight four seven nine Zaymoney8479 says, shout out, take Succnello out, because he cherry picked, which you've said today, and you didn't see any of these comments. you Clubberty has never seen any of these comments, by the way, I managed the YouTube comments, so he has not seen these yet. um And we did not talk about it before the show. Cherry picked ever since he lost to Floyd, who actually gave him his career by putting him on his undercard before fighting him,
01:28:24
Speaker
put Salvador Sanchez at one or two. Now, Salvador Sanchez was brought up by a number of people um and he's not in your top five at all. So what do you say to Salvador? sha First of all, not being in your top five. He passed. What year did he pass? Let me get that for you.
01:28:43
Speaker
The reason why I made my list is when I started watching boxing, and started getting into boxing and the Mexican fighters, I should have specified, this is my fault. This is probably my fault. I should have specified, you know, Mexican bosses that impacted me as far as watching sport.
01:29:02
Speaker
which people should be what it is i don't know yeah that'd be a comment puerto rican boxes i went back in the day for poor recon box it wasn't as as many so i had to go back in the day for some of the poor recon boxes but i would say for this list it was all the mexican bosses that for me catapulted and put mexican and fighters on the map now there's a lot of mexican fighters that of course the mexicans knew which are great fighters but as far as Making the average Americans root for them and and putting them on a map as far as oh snap. That's a at Morales. Oh, he'd be over. Oh, he'd be a person. I see my man and things like that that made them on the put you guys on the map. That's how I did my list. Okay. So, of course, it's gonna be as Josh says subjective, you know,
01:29:47
Speaker
Oh, yeah yeah I know Josh. Josh is going to be like, Oh, yeah. You don't, you don't have Julio Johnson from 1975. He's going to put. Oh, Josh is about to go in on me, but no, seriously, I'm going to say this. Uh, I made my list for, I should put Mexican fighters that impacted my life and how I feel that catapulted Mexican fighters as a whole to the next level. And you can't, can't argue with Chavez.
01:30:17
Speaker
Chavez was the whole culture and put everybody on the map and, you know, ah not put air everybody on the map, but meant put more eyes on the map. And, you know, everybody, as far as La Raza was rooting for him. And he was the epitome of La Raza. So. that so um Yeah, he was. And so is Konez. Shout out to Konez. Let me speak on this.
01:30:49
Speaker
that like That's that's the start of his actual banger but anyway shout out everybody yet ah ah Check out YouTube at ball and buds. You see it right there. That's where you can watch it on it And yeah, so why you said that though also is because some other people have suggested people like Ricardo Lopez died in 1996 Sanchez died in 82 so um You know all great fighters and again would have been included on clubber D's list But this is covered D's top five not your top five so y'all can stop being dusty But we do appreciate you know what?
01:31:25
Speaker
Omar you're a hundred you're hundred ten percent and what I should have done I should did honorable mentions because I would have put them on there would explained why But yeah, remember this is when we were early in this YouTube game and Omar was a yo make a top five list All right, bet I got you boom. Boom now I should did a done a deep dive in and see you know some of the historical Mexican fighters that were way before my time that paved the way for these current fighters and you know if you guys want to I could make a newer list and I I agree with the Canelo slander, 100% agree. That's why I can never put him number one. But I cannot ignore the fact that he is the first ever Mexican born undisputed champion in a four belt era. I can't ignore that fact. And also somebody said De La Hoya, De La Hoya is born in America. He represented America in the Olympics. So I can't put him on that list. You know what I'm saying? Right? Yeah, yeah. And so that was, hold on.
01:32:16
Speaker
So that was from NJC 79 shout out and he actually cuz I didn't mention this comment yet. I was gonna go to that next. He said remove Canelo and make that no, you're fine. That's perfect. Cuz it's a segue remove Canelo and make de la hoya number three Sanchez at number two and ah and Salvador Sanchez at number one. So you're obviously in reference to that is what you're talking about. um Salvador Sanchez unfortunately passed away with 83 82 82 August of 82.
01:32:45
Speaker
A2 I was ah three months old so These are all fighters that I grew up watching and kind of elevated Mexican fighters to me, to that next level and getting that the respect that they always deserved. Of course, there's a bunch of fighters beforehand that are great, but ah you know these are the fighters that I kind of saw and noticed a rise in popularity as far as these latter weight divisions, because we all know that all the monies and the heavier divisions, what's waiting up, that's where all the money's at, 147 and up.
01:33:18
Speaker
now If somebody did a list of their best. ah I don't know, African-American fighters and input Pernell Whitaker. I feel a certain way. Cause that's my favorite fighter of all time. He's one of the reasons why I started watching boxing, watching the Pernell Whitaker fight with my dad representing Virginia at seven five seven, you know? So, uh, so I get, I get where people are coming from. I got, I get it. I understand. But, um, I did my list on what I started watching boxing and trajectory of Mexican fighters, other people on that list and how they impacted the sport. So, you know, that's how I did it.
01:33:51
Speaker
Hey, and we love it. And if you get another one from him, be lucky. If not, be dusty. ah But we do. love luck Be dusty. I like that. the bar The bars are coming all day. You can have that one, my friend. Be lucky or be dusty. That's a good one.
