00:04:20
Speaker
We will review all the games, give you our picks tonight. We will give you our picks for the Jets and Patriots as well. But first, you know, we got to get that boxing and MMA news going. So first of all, let's go ahead and hit.
00:04:33
Speaker
um You want to hit the fan mailbag first? You want to say that for last? You know, let's let's do the fan mailbag first. You know, some of the fans might be hopping in, hopping out. So let's let's get some of the mailbag, get that out the way.
00:04:44
Speaker
All right, fantastic. So first mailbag question comes comes from Shades of Boxing out of Baltimore, Maryland. Shout out to BMore out there.
00:04:55
Speaker
um Is Shakur Stevenson and Teofimo Lopez fight still on? Well, ah yeah, it looks like it's going to be ah end of January. It's finally going to happen.
00:05:07
Speaker
You got the 135-pound champion, Shakur Stevenson, moving up to 140 to fight Tiafemo, the racist Lopez. Yes, I said it. I don't care. But it looks like it's going to happen. So it's a good fight. I'm proud to see Tiafemo not, you know, ducking anybody and actually going to fight a good fight. So props to him. Props to Shakur making that step up and moving to that 140 division.
00:05:31
Speaker
Yeah, there you go. And actually, it's funny because our next question is Tank Davis legal issues question asking if he's done or not. But actually, the funnier part about this question, because I see your shirt, is this person's from Buffalo.
00:05:46
Speaker
yeah ah So what do you want to tell us more about your shirt you got on today? Oh, yeah. I'm representing West Side Gun, okay? My man, look here, WWE. You kick him out, okay? This man does nothing but promote wrestling. If you look at any of his lyrics, all he does is talk about wrestling. His album covers.
00:06:03
Speaker
Everything. He's always big enough wrestling, even as his own wrestling federation, the fourth rope. This man paid about $5,000 in travel, whatever, to get front row seats at Monday Night Raw just for y'all to kick him out.
00:06:16
Speaker
That's horrible, man. Y'all wrong for that. Y'all are wrong for that. Yeah, no, I agree. Look, man, if you have somebody that supports your industry as much as he does, and he supports the WWE a lot by, again, speaking names out and all that in his songs, y'all should treat him a lot, lot better. And you should know who he is, even if you want to say, security guards like to say in that sort of situation, we don't know, we didn't know who he was. Come on now.
00:06:39
Speaker
His hometown, you know who he is. They know it's an issue. They said it's a certain person that's... ah That's in the front office or backstage or whatever that, ah you know, I guess don't really rock with me like that. So, you know, whatever.
00:06:51
Speaker
the bro Shout out Canteen. Thank you for tuning in, brother. Appreciate it um my From the old bottom line sports show.
00:07:04
Speaker
Virgil Ortiz's next opponent is our next ah question. Shout out to end of days from Austin, Texas, um asking about Virgil Ortiz's next opponent. Yeah, Virgil, he took out Lubin in the second round this past weekend all on the zone. And, ah yes you know, they they have Boots. He came in the ring. Jerron Boots, evidences he came in the ring right after that. They did the little face-off talking about, are you going to sign the contract?
00:07:29
Speaker
You know, ah i saw something fishy because when they were there, it was in Dallas at the Pauls, if necessary, Dickies Arena. um Yeah, I know. That's okay. It's close. But, robot yeah. yeah just sit's close but ah I saw him arguing with Charlo, you know, who is the that the king of that division, and though he hasn't fought in a while. He is the the uncrowned king or was crowned and not crowned anymore king.
00:07:51
Speaker
But he was going back and forth with boots, you know, doing whatever. And then ah Earl Spence was there also. Earl Spence a Dallas guy as well as Virgil Ortiz. Um... After the fight, everyone's like, this fight needs to happen. These two young lions, to fight at 147.
00:08:05
Speaker
Never happened. Now they're at 154. They were face-to-face talking about, yeah, sign a contract, yada, yada, yada, just for Virgil Ortiz to say, My dream fight is Earl Spence. No, no, no, no, no. Nobody wants to see that fight.
00:08:18
Speaker
Okay. Earl ain't falling since Bud Molly Watham. So we don't want to see that fight. And the zone already said, told Golden Boy, we're not backing that fight. So it better be Boots versus Virgil Ortiz next or else I'm going to get mad and do nothing.
00:08:34
Speaker
That's hilarious. um Yeah, no, I mean, hey, I ain't got nothing else to add to that that. That was exactly what should have been said about that. All right, let's move it on to our last fan mailbag question. This one is going to be a doozy from Memphis, Tennessee. Shout out Memphis. By the way, yesterday i interviewed a mmm MMA fighter, Adarius Walls from Memphis, Tennessee. So shout out to Adarius, two-in-one pro now after three fights. He's a new newer to the pro ranks, and die he's looking to continue fighting and get to the UFC. So look out for that interview tomorrow. I think I'm going to post that.
00:09:13
Speaker
So it's also on Millions. If you want to go check out Millions at Ball & Buds, interviews on there from different m MMA and boxers. But anyways, comes from Memphis, Tennessee.
00:09:23
Speaker
um Yes. Shout out to a berserker. Jake Paul versus your Vontae Davis was called off. But now apparently there are talks for Jake Paul to fight former heavyweight champion of the world.
00:09:39
Speaker
Anthony Joshua cover. Do we know how you feel about Jake Paul? How do you feel about this? Um, Joshua's made a lot of money.
00:09:50
Speaker
ah Jake Paul said in an interview a while ago that he would do a Joshua fight later down the line. And I always thought that was a fight to kind of see him get knocked out, you know, to to take his medicine, so to say.
00:10:01
Speaker
And, you know, have all the boxing critics and pundits and spectators that want to see him get murked, get murked in the ring by ah ah Anthony Joshua. I know with his tank fight, with his legal situations, know.
00:10:13
Speaker
uh, tanks another story, but, uh, I know Andre Ward flirted the, the, the thing of, yeah, I'd fight Jake Paul, which I love to see. I love to see the SOG come back, come back out of retirement. You what saying? He was favorite fighters.
00:10:24
Speaker
He was in my top five, uh, at that time. But, um, I guess he didn't sign the contract or they didn't send one. I'm not sure that's that story, but Anthony Joshua, not only will that, I will say it right now. If he fights Anthony Joshua, I think more people will tune into that than the Mike Tyson fight.
00:10:44
Speaker
I'm almost positive because Anthony Joshua, everybody knows who he is on the heavyweight division. Ex unified champion, you know, almost undisputed champion, multiple time unified champion. So,
00:10:58
Speaker
I think all of Great Britain, all i think the whole world will want them, will want to see Anthony Joshua knock the mayonnaise out of of Jake Paul. I think everybody will see that. Everybody will see that.
00:11:09
Speaker
Knock all the LA looks out of his head. is Just do, just boom. There you go. You know i'm saying? So I think that fight, if if they do have that fight, ah I think it'll be in Dallas Stadium or wherever the Cowboys play. Somewhere somewhere of that size. It has to be, if it's in Miami, it's going be where the Dolphins play. It's going very, it's going spectacle.
00:11:27
Speaker
And one thing, like it or hate it with Jake Paul, I give respect because he always platforms women ah on his undercard. You know what I'm saying? So he does he does the the the good deed in showing the boxing fans that women can fight. And puts on very good but female boxing cards. So I will say that he'll least showcase a couple of good female fights on that card. So ah all the eyes can see that fight. And then just like ah Taylor versusa so Serrano, um it got all those views on on Netflix. air Everybody wanting to see that rematch. So that's one good thing I'll so i'll say that'll come out of it.
00:12:02
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, look, as much as and it's completely right for anyone to have the opinion. And I know it's happened a lot with you for anyone to have that opinion, and because I see, obviously, when you post online and people comment to your post about how much of a joke it is. And we know, obviously, like the the the writer said in our mailbag, thank you for.
00:12:21
Speaker
ah shout out to Berserker, thank you for the question, um that the people that watch this show know how you feel about it as well, being a spectacle, being a circus, whatever, ah which is completely right.
00:12:33
Speaker
um So when does when is it okay for someone like, and this my just follow-up question, a a real boxer like Anthony Joshua or Javante Davis to start legitimizing this to the point where ah people might start to consider it ah him a legitimate boxer when a lot of people believe that he's not.
00:12:54
Speaker
Well, I mean, it be it would for Javante Davis, it was a lose-lose type situation. I mean, it's a win for them for their pockets, but... I mean, what's what's Jake Paul going to get out of that fight in somebody at 135 when you fight at, like, 200? You know what saying? like what's right Like, what's the point? And Jonathan Tank Davis is like, what is he, like, 5'3", 5'0"? And Jake Paul is probably So, what's the point, okay? This is this isn't Rocky Bob Bull going against Thunder Lips, okay? So, nobody really cares to see that.
00:13:24
Speaker
It's not really... Yeah, I mean, I don't want to see Muggsy Bowes fight Charles Barkley. Nobody wants to see that. So, you know, we with... ah it being Joshua, now you're making Jake Paul the underdog. He is a, he is a David going against Goliath. And again, for Joshua, this doesn't really mean much for his legacy. It's more of ah him just beating a YouTuber's ass.
00:13:47
Speaker
So Jake Paul, he's good. He's good against lower level opposition. Cause he, he has put the work in and a he's been a couple of years training, fighting, but against a seasoned, actual real boxer, I just,
00:14:00
Speaker
He's got to fight these guys that are MMA guys that are on the tail end of their careers. You know I'm saying? i don't I just don't see him against a real boxer. Chavez, to me, everybody knows he was he's not a real boxer. so Chavez was you know doesn't do his dad ah proud. you know Ever since he i'm married quit against Danny Jacobs, I was like, man, what are you doing? Almost caused a riot. so now Now, when you're thinking about that,
00:14:26
Speaker
There's not much more trajectory than ah but ah someone like him who would could have then coming in so late to the game and already being hated upon because of what he does on the outside with his social media presence and all that.
00:14:39
Speaker
So do you believe that the rest, ah that his ambitions rather to be, because obviously he talks about wanting to be a champion, um that those are so far-fetched that they would never happen? Or does he have a faraway chance?
00:14:54
Speaker
It's really going to be on the corruption of the committee. That's really going to be. You know, he lives in Puerto Rico. WBC is based out of Puerto Rico. um You know, Suleman flirted that will put him in the top 10.
00:15:08
Speaker
I forgot which fight it was. They they would put him in the top 10 in their rankings. um that is it's kind of like, ah we'll probably talk pride all about this next week with Skywalker and 86 Box and Papatunio. It's kind of like how Ryan Garcia has been reinstated with WBC and they're already going to they're thinking about putting him against Mario Barrios for 147 pound w bc title,
00:15:31
Speaker
you know fight and you're coming off a loss at 140 you're coming off being suspended for coming overweight in britain using uh peds so why in god's name are you getting a title title shot it's because he's still a name and he still put asses in seats so jake paul if he can still do that and at that cruiserweight or whatever division he's fighting at and fighting these johnny come lately's they might rank him and have him fight somebody because that's at least putting eyes and asses in seats so they'll just kind of do it freaking that way so that's right that's the way Right, and I love the segue that we're about to have from what you just said, but first let's get some comments.
00:16:06

And hey, we are going to be looking at the boxing in November. we're gonna So check this out. ah Just to touch on what Clubber D was saying, you can see these matchups for the month of November here.
00:18:09
Speaker
ah You can see we had that Virgil Ortiz versus Erickson Lube that he just talked about. We are about to cover right now the Chris Eubank Jr. versus Conor Ben number two rematch.
00:18:19
Speaker
Right now we're going to cover that as well with Clubber D. But Clubber D, look at these other ones that we will talk about next week, Wednesday the 19th, 8 Eastern. Y'all make sure you tune in to Ball and Buds, Boxing Champs, Fight Picks. We will pick all these. But what do you think about this upcoming month of November here?
00:18:33
Speaker
what what what This boxing you know sheet right here, you keep a log off right now because I'm going to something I don't want you to hear. okay With all these good fights, you don't need to have pants on. You don't need to watch these fights, but when the fights are on, put your pants be kind of weird you watch a man fight. The excitement for these fights,
00:18:52
Speaker
you know you know, take a short, turn around air like a helicopter, you know, PD Pablo, do it that style. You can come back in, you Kibo. But now this, all this is, I've been waiting for this month. My only gripe is, um um I'm not gonna do it yet, but Turkey Allah Chic.
00:19:09
Speaker
Oh, you told us that these fights will be free. You said these fights will be free on the zone and they're not free. You know, just up the price to $44 a month and you get like 12 pay-per-views. You don't pick which pay-per-views you get the Connor Ben and, uh, uh, you bank.
00:19:25
Speaker
That's part of it. To me, that's not a pay-per-view. I love that fight, but it's not a pay-per-view for Americans. Cause it's not a title fight. Okay. I'm not gonna go off on it. We'll just, let's keep it moving. I'm a blood. They even got my blood. Hey,
00:19:36
Speaker
like No, but that that's something that needs to be talked about because if you're going to come in and promise all these things and then not actually produce, boxing fans will start to get upset because they have had to pay for so long.
00:19:49
Speaker
I'm not gonna put you out there, little man. Don't worry. I know. I see what you said. We ain't going to put you out there, but ah yes but but this is hilarious. ah Leave him alone. Leave him alone. Blame his That's great. ah Just add the E in there and take the I out, little buddy. Yeah, there it goes.

00:20:22
Speaker
We'll get you in there. Shout out to Champ Rawls. Champ Ross. Make sure you subscribe to Ball and Buds. Hit that like button. right, let's move it into Chris Eubank versus Connor Ben.
00:20:34
Speaker
ah Number two, the rematch here. So, ah you know, hey, and and one of the one of the things I really like about this is if you look at this promos that they have,
00:20:46
Speaker
for the the UFC and look at this and the Eubank Ben. Just some very well done to my marketers, my digital marketers who made this. I'm proud of you. This is some good work right there. That's from the first fight.
00:20:59
Speaker
Um, which one, this one, Connor Ben, that's when first fight. Okay. That was me then. That was, that was my mistake. I didn't know that. It's still, still look cool. Still look super cool. I don't care. but yeah like ya a good good guy good call Either way, still looks cool. I wanted to give it a shout out.
00:21:14
Speaker
Um, so let's move into that though. Chris Eubank versus Connor Ben. It is the rematch. So as you mentioned, there was a first one. Uh, and now after that, that was back in April.
00:21:26
Speaker
Um, that you bank was able to obviously take the victory. So, I mean, Hey, what are we thinking here in this huge, huge boxing event? Well, the the first one had so many, like, it was just so much drama around it because obviously we know their, their dads had had their epic fights and, uh, you know, the, the Eubank family is, is up what tubes are two Oh, and one to own. We had a draw.
00:21:51
Speaker
Oh, the draft. Yeah. We only wanted that when that's had to draw, which I think Ben won that fight. But, um, you know, Chris Eubank and his father were beefing forever. And then when he when they pulled up in a Rolls Royce, his dad got out first, and then he got out.
00:22:06
Speaker
I almost did a backflip because I did a watch party for that fight. I think it was the first watch party I did. It was very fun. But almost did a backflip when seniors showed up. I was like, holy smokes, they're not beefing no more.
00:22:19
Speaker
So, you know, it was happy to see that. they They put in 67,000 people in Tottenham Hussburg Arena in London. England, wherever it's at. It's over there. but And so the fact that 67 people came to watch a non-title fight is phenomenal. But that is a big fight for the ah United Kingdom, for the British boxing culture. That is a huge fight from their fathers of them fighting. so And the fact that when when Chris Ube showed up at the weigh-in, he looked definitely like he's he had a he had a drop down in weight.
00:22:47
Speaker
Conor's only one gaining weight because he's a welterweight. So The fact that Eubanks, he came down, I think he came down from 168, think. I think it's what I could be wrong, but ah he looked he looked like Tyrone Bingham's cousin, light-skinned version. You know, he just looked definitely, you know what I'm saying? he I thought he was on the side of street, either flipping a get your taxes done here sign or or he was begging for money at a median. He just looked awful.
00:23:11
Speaker
But, um you know, he won. You know, i thought was going to gas out. I thought Ben was going to catch him because of that weight cut. But, you Now, how about this, though? He is 36 years old, so he's seven years older than him.
00:23:22
Speaker
Is that going to put any factor into this? Only way I saw them today, the dads shaking hands and face off with the sons as well. um Chris, his energy wasn't very like, eh, he was very kind of mellow and desperate because his weight.
00:23:40
Speaker
He did it the first time. I swear if that fight was in America, that would not have happened because he looked frail. Like, you always got to see what he looks frail. But, you know, you rehydrate the next day. He didn't look so bad. But he could only rehydrate 10 pounds.
00:23:53
Speaker
So they had a a cap on his rehydration too. reation call that So this go around, think he's going to be, he's it looks like he's he's doing the weight cut a lot better. um you know and In the first fight, it was back and forth in the early rounds, but Eubanks, he landed more shots, landed more power shots. He's the bigger guy, landed a jab.
00:24:13
Speaker
Ben is very wily, but I feel like Ben has nothing but heart. okay He gained some respect to me in the last fight. um The judges had it 116 and 112.
00:24:25
Speaker
um I kind of see this fight going the same way, be honest with you. I don't see Ben... ah i don't see ben taking over, you know, Goliath. I don't know. Now question for you is Ben, cause Ben was, is 20, 23 and one, right? So he was, he was, ah he was undefeated guys. Oh, taken. Um,
00:24:46
Speaker
um Is he, if I'm correct, and I'm looking at Box Live, so this is off of Box Live, they have the rankings of Eubank and Ben, and they don't have, and I think this is this has to be wrong, but they don't have Ben in the top 10 of any of the, is that correct?
00:25:04
Speaker
Is he not in the top 10 of any of the, so why is is he getting these fights because of the legacy of their fathers then? Is that why this is happening the second time? Well, Oh, yeah, yeah, for sure. yeah this fight was is just more one This fight was supposed to happen years ago. But remember, Ben got caught with steroids. That's why Eubanks came upside the with those eggs. know in the league of Oh, that's right. I forgot about that. He spending for like four years or so.
00:25:26
Speaker
Then, ah not four years, but maybe a year or two years. And then they kind of renegotiated this fight to happen. um and So this is more... Eubanks is kind of like on the back end of his career. So this isn't really like a major got to do fight, but this is, it's a money grab. I mean, I'm props to them that they can put 67,000 people in a soccer arena.
00:25:46
Speaker
Okay. You've got to understand the magnitude of that. We don't have that over here in the state side. Okay. Because a Papa Chugniel brought up a good point. There's not many things to do over in London. You know, there they have just neighborhood pubs and stuff. There's not many like major sporting events besides soccer ah to go to. We have basketball, football, things like that. They're kind of isolated, especially where they live. There's not many big arenas to do so. The fact that they can get 67,000 people in there for a spectacle like this, that's that's I would do the same thing if was in. And why bring a state side? State side, you might get on a good day.
00:26:19
Speaker
12, 13, maybe on a basketball arena, ah except like Bud and Canelo, they had like 47 or something like that when they fall, but that's Bud and Canelo. um So, you know, Earl Spence, when he got his belt against, ah ah snap, it's going to pop to me late. Not American. Somebody tell me in the chat. But when Earl Spence went over there and got his ah belt, it was in the soccer stadium, you know, so um they put on of you.
00:26:47
Speaker
They put on in the UK. and And well, like you mentioned, especially with the fact that there are no championships on the line on this card and that the card is not that great anyways, as you had mentioned, right? We're going to do some club bangers here, but um this card could be a lot better, as you mentioned. ah So that fact alone that they can drive that many people to a stadium.
00:27:07
Speaker
yeah I mean, that just really is a testament to British boxing fans, honestly, and how much they revere the sport. um So anyways, yeah, what what else you got? Who you got on this one? Who's your... help Kell Brook.
00:27:18
Speaker
Kell Brook, yes. There you go. Oh, ready for it? Ready for it? Bangers. Club Bangers. I'm going to go. Chris Eubanks Jr. Damn, flemy Flemington just came out. Flemington.
00:27:33
Speaker
Yeah, Jesus Christ. I'll go with Chris Eubanks Jr. with another majority decision. He's going to win this unanimously. um I don't have a caveat. I think he's just going to win again. I was thinking that Conor Ben might just knock him out like in the seventh round.
00:27:48
Speaker
ah wow I'm going to go with Eubanks Jr. He's a smarter fighter. He has more ring IQ than Ben. Ben did rock him a few times, but Eubanks is just going to use his size, use that jab. He landed more power punches.
00:28:01
Speaker
The problem is the weight cut. If the weight cuts are still the same and he's adapted his body better this time, um he might get him out early, but I'm thinking it's going another decision. Okay, but I'm going to go with Eubank Jr. as well.
00:28:16
Speaker
I'm not going to go with decision, though. I think going to go with a TKO just because um I want to – I'm mostly taking what you said off of your analysis of the first fight, but also um just say, okay, well, maybe if he can get a little leaner, meaner, um hopefully that weight cut wasn't too much that he can actually you know still – ah ah pause for sure, but pound him ah you know with his fists.
00:28:42
Speaker
um I know that was bad. um So anyways, I'm going to go with Eubank Jr. TKO. ah Let's say I'm going to go late like you said. Let's say TKO 10. Okay. 10, something like that.
00:28:54
Speaker
but else I can rock with that. Wait, how many rounds is it? Hold on. This should be 12. 12 rounds. 12. Yeah, should be 12. I'll make sure. Okay, cool. right, now we're getting some quick hitters, some mini club bangers on the rest of this card. So Clubber D going down this.
00:29:08
Speaker
We'll start with the co-main event, Jack Catterall versus Ikau Isuman. Who do you got in this one? I'm going to with the better fighter, the all-around better boxer. I'm going to with Jack Catterall. Loves, bangers.
00:29:20
Speaker
You don't have to wait for it. No, no, you don't have to wait for it. I'm just going to throw it in there so it's funny. It'll just go. All right, let's go with the next one. Adam Azeem versus Kurt Scobie.
00:29:31
Speaker
Loves, bangers. Well, see, this one, it was, okay, so Kurt, He lost in OTX. He's been fighting on the zone for a while with that OTX series.
00:29:42
Speaker
um He lost, and he's I think he's in like a seven, five-fight TKO. He's previously knocked out just about everyone he's fought. However, he is going across the pond to fight the assassin who was 13-0 on a 4K4 TKO win streak right now. And ah as much as I like her, you know,
00:30:01
Speaker
<unk> he's one of those like muscle guys he can gas that a little bit i'm going with the assassin this is this fight uh we'll probably end in uh six rounds knockout All right, on to the next one. Richard, and I do not want to mess this up, but I don't know how to that. Riccapore.
00:30:15
Speaker
Riccapore. Maybe he's Italian or something. Versus Tommy Welsh. You're too black to Italian. I didn't know who he was. He's Italian. that He's Italian as Giannis is Greek. about That is tremendous. That is great.
00:30:32
Speaker
Who you got in that one? oh I'm going with Hellboy. I'm going with Tommy Welsh. I'm going with a fourth round knockout. All right. Sam Gilley versus Ishmael Davis.
00:30:44
Speaker
You know what? I was going to go Sam Gilley, but I'm going go with Ishmael Davis. right. I'm going go split decision. All right. That there, by the way, is for the British and Commonwealth superweight title. Oh, Papetunio loves that belt and loves the colors on that belt.
00:30:58
Speaker
that hope you're being serious. yeah No, he hates that belt. Oh, okay. That's great. Because it's the colors on it makes it look like I'm not going to. Yeah. Oh, I got you. Yep. Last bout of the evening. Let's move on. Mickey Talon versus Bazan Shahid.
00:31:17
Speaker
club you got bans This one is going to be for Mickey Talon. He's a nickname, the Omen. He is 10 and 0. He's one of those rising stars out there. He's going to make quick, quick work, quick work of Shahid. I'm going to say a second round knockout.
00:31:34
Speaker
All right, word. There you go. There's Club of D's Club Bangers for the Eubank versus Ben part two card, the rematch.
00:31:45
Speaker
um So y'all go ahead and put that in your DraftKings fan duel, maybe your score bet since there is no more ESPN bet. Now that they have, uh, so yeah. So yeah. Broken new breaking news last week, them and pen, uh, pen sports who bought it from Barstool.
00:32:01
Speaker
They ended up saying that they just couldn't, they didn't own enough market share. They only had 3% market share and they were trying to get to 20 within like the first three years. And they were like, we're not going to make it. So they just cut off the whole thing. So now, um,
00:32:15
Speaker
The pen got, but pen is using their brand, the score. I don't know if you've ever heard them like a brand online. um They're going to be the score bet. And then ESPN from now on is going to use draft Kings for all of their betting like lines and stuff. And betting is turned into like streaming. Okay. Everybody trying to branch out, do their own thing. Can't do it. Merge up like Voltron. I mean, this is probably a split shit up.
00:32:37
Speaker
Bring it back. Bring. I want the cable. I want to channel. I was waiting for you to say it. I was like, okay. I got to go to ESPN. Then I got to go back to being on the zone. And I got to go all the to YouTube TV. yeah Look at YouTube, YouTube TV. You are lucky. You have the Sunday ticket. I wouldn't rock with y'all.
00:32:55
Speaker
And you made easy. You pay for 35 bucks a month. So why? Why? Everybody should have it. You know, And now got to get off and go to ah ESPN. You're lucky I got Disney because I like the Mandalorian. And some of y'all's mamas and girls look like extras from the Mandalorian.
00:33:08
Speaker
But, you know, I got to go over there to watch my ESPN and Monday Night Football stuff and hop back over. I'm sick of all this. right? Jesus. hu I mean, it' is a lot. It is a lot. The fragmentation of TV viewing now that streaming has come along is quite ridiculous.
00:33:23
Speaker
I'm not going to lie. I have most of them um only because i have bundles. Like you mentioned, I have the like Disney, ESPN, Hulu bundle, and it comes with the NFL too, so I have that. And now I have also through Xfinity, I have their bundle, which is Xfinity, Netflix, and Apple, which is cool. So I got you know a couple bundles for like 50 bucks. I get like seven state streaming stations. But I still got to flip through seven.
00:33:44
Speaker
And then if I want to watch Prime on Thursday, like tonight, I have to go out of the Amazon app if I want to go watch something else on TV during commercial. I use my laptop. I'm about to buy and a smaller TV.
00:33:55
Speaker
Just another TV. Prop it up like the homie, ah the Rubik's Cuban. He got like a good four TV setup where he's at. I'm about to do the same thing. Have a couple TVs. and do game action I can't take it no more.
00:34:05
Speaker
I can't. yeah I'm sick of this. And even with two TVs, it's bad. You know, your boy got the two TVs set up. And even with the two TVs, I still got to use a laptop just if I want to watch. I'm like, I want watch basketball too.
00:34:16
Speaker
i mean I need a little black remote that my dad used play. Don't touch it. I need that to flip up and down. I need back and forth. That is tremendous. Bobby G says, get a fire stick and IPTV. I get all pay-per-view and all sports for free $15 a month.

00:35:37
Speaker
Yo, recess was the best. Great. That is tremendous. All right. Let's move it on into what you came for the UFC because we do got to get you out here for football in about 40 minutes.
00:35:49
Speaker
So let's go ahead and hit this UFC. We got a bunch of bouts. Huge card. Huge card. Yeah, we'll give our football picks. We will. Huge card, Della Maddalena versus Islam Mahachev for the welterweight title. You got Valentina Shevashenko versus Zhang Weili for the women's flyweight title. You got Sean Brady, Michael Morales, Leon Edwards, Carlos Preutz, Benil DeRousse versus Benoit Saint-Denis. I mean, this main card is super stacked, and if you look at the prelims,
00:36:22
Speaker
They got some fighters, Bo Nickel, Greg Rodriguez, Roman Kopolov, Aaron Bransfield, Tracy Cortez. Clubber D is about to give you all of his thoughts on all of these bouts. But overall, what do you think about this amazing Madison Square Garden card?
00:36:38
Speaker
Well, again, like you you just you said it, Madison Square Garden, they they got to come correct. Because, you know, the last few UFCs, they weren't like that as far as ah as being a stack card. And remember, This is one of the last cards. I'm not sure if it's the last card, but it's one of the last cards on ESPN pay-per-view before it's free on Paramount.
00:36:55
Speaker
Another service that I have to get now, but will be free. You ain't got to pay this no more. So, hey, they, they trying sneak us in with these heavy hitters, you know, just say we want our last little little bread before we sign this gazillion dollar deal to, to Paramount and not get the fire. So UFC is only going to be on Paramount now.
00:37:13
Speaker
Yep. Everything free. Oh, it's free, though. Every pay-per-view? Oh, yeah. Every free. Oh, shit. That might be worth the $10. Oh, I'll give it 100%. I'm going to get it. I'm going to watch Tulsa King. going to watch whatever that Western show everybody going watch that, too.
00:37:29
Speaker
So, I don't know. Kevin Costner. Whatever it is. I got you. I got you. I heard it's good, That's Okay, cool. All right. Well, hey, we've got a huge card to talk about. A lot of fights going on. So let's go ahead and get into it. We're going to do all the club bangers leading up to the main card. So let's do go ahead and start with the prelim pick'ems.
00:37:49
Speaker
ah Aaron Blanchfield versus Tracy Cortez. This is a number four Aaron Blanchfield, women's flyweight versus number eight Tracy Cortez. So we got to think about this, y'all, in relation to the co-main event.
00:38:02
Speaker
because these are two fighters that are trying to get up to challenge for that title. Right, Clubber D? So the favorite here is Aaron Blanchfield, a 258 to 210 underdog for Cortez. How do you feel about this fight? Gloves, bangers. I'm sorry. I'm a fan of this fight. I'm a fan of Cortez. She is a lovely-looking young lady. We all know her. They both have a common opponent, being Rose Namajunas.
00:38:26
Speaker
Blanchfield beat Rose. when when When Cortez fought Rose, we all know her. If you guys don't know who she is, but she's the the one that that that ah made the news for fighting with those big-ass eyelashes, and and Rose knocked one of jokers out in mid-round. So she's One with those big old flapping eyelashes in the fight.
00:38:43
Speaker
um she's She's a lovely young lady, I'll say that. Baking egg and cheese sandwich. I think she used to date ah Brian T. City Ortega now that I'm tracking or stalking or just reading just reading her stats and knowing things about her.
00:38:53
Speaker
But um I feel this fight is going to be... Shout out! Yeah, she is. Baking egg cheese sandwich. I'm looking right now. I can see the eyelashes too. In her picture, she has huge eyelashes. She's the type. I'll take the Taco Bell. You got the three items.
00:39:07
Speaker
Dollar menu. But anyways... um I'll say this. She's a good fighter, but Blanchfield is very average to above average at everything.
00:39:18
Speaker
I feel it's going to very close fight. I think Blanchfield is going to use her takedowns to kind of keep Cortez down most of the fight and grind it out to a 29-28 Blanchfield. blanfield Victory.
00:39:30
Speaker
That's what going to go with. All right. There you go. In a middleweight bout, we have the favorite Gregory Rodriguez, the 185 favorite out of Brazil, versus Roman Kapilov, who is a 154 underdog out of Russia. Who you got? Bangers.
00:39:47
Speaker
Oh, oh, I'm going Robocop Rodriguez, okay? I called his last fight. I said it be a knockout second round Hermanson. I was right. I'm going to with this fight. Knockout, second round.
00:39:59
Speaker
RoboCop will win again. Gregory Rodriguez. Boom. There you go. In another middleweight bout, former highly regarded prospect Bo Nickel, who is the favorite in this fight, I may add, 205 favorite, versus Rodolfo Vieira out of Brazil is a 170 underdog. Club bangers.
00:40:22
Speaker
i think I think Bo's going to keep it standing up. don't think he's going to take to the ground. he is He is the the the the better wrestler. He's one of the top wrestlers in the nation. um I feel like Fierro gasses at times, and Bo has a better stand-up. So I think Bo is just going to use his stand-up, even though was terrible. it's been Oh, my God, his stand-up has been terrible. But I got Bo Nickel winning. it It's going to be another...
00:40:46
Speaker
I'm not going to say boring fight, but it might just be a meh fight of the night. If you want to go get some peanuts, get some popcorn, if you want to pop the popcorn, if you want to season it, if you want to make a sandwich, if you want to get torta make a torta or holler at it, this is the time do that during this fight, but I'm going to go with Bo Nickel.
00:41:07
Speaker
Well, if you want to get a torta, you got to go outside and go hit your, you know what? Let me stop. Ain't nothing wrong with that. Ain't nothing wrong with that. your local Taco Bell.
00:41:18
Speaker
Hey, I ain't never turned, ain't never turned down a good looking torta. Ain't nothing wrong with that. Discriminating. Hey, you know, then you love to be sad. Then you love to be sad. All right. Let's go look at our Instagram. Papi Junior says, what's cracking, fellas?

00:42:06
Speaker
I know you do. Let's move it into the main event, the main card. Excuse me, not the main event yet, but the main card ah here at Madison Square Garden. And this one is jam-packed action. It's just all over. Let's start with a lightweight bout.
00:42:22
Speaker
Number nine ranked Benil Darouche, who is a 150 underdog in this match. Going up against the number 13 ranked Benoit Saint-Denis, who is a 180 favorite in this bout.
00:42:37
Speaker
Cleber D, what are your thoughts on this huge... Clubs, bangers. Well, BSD, I thought he was going to make that that ah that next step in career when he fought Dustin Poirier. Dustin Poirier beat him in that surprise win, and then I think Poirier fought ah Islam after that.
00:42:52
Speaker
I like always like Benil, but he's never gotten gotten over that a good prospect to decent fighter he's never made that jump into that elite uh portion of his career and now he's towards the tail end of it and the why uh but why saint denise is now kind of got his groove back this guy was ex uh mercenary wherever he was up over in france guy's no joke um he has a better stand up he's a uh he's been He's better on the feet than Benil, and he has great ah grappling defense. So with that that being said, I'm going to go with Benoit.
00:43:28
Speaker
I think he's going to have Daniel rocks a couple times, but I think he's just going to go with unanimous decision. But I think he'll win all three rounds, beating Benil, and he's hopefully retired after that because he has nothing else to fight for.
00:43:44
Speaker
So unanimous decision? Oh, yeah. But I got i got i got Benil being rocked a couple times in this fight. OK. But you got BSD with a UD, right? Yeah.
00:43:55
Speaker
That's what you tried to do there. yeah Yeah, you like that. just want to make sure I get it down too for so I can put it on the YouTube video when I put it up. All right, cool. Moving on to the next one, a welterweight belt, former champion, number four ranked Leon Edwards out of England, 145 underdog in this fight versus Carlos Preich out of Brazil.
00:44:17
Speaker
Is it Prates? Okay, thank you. thought I wasn't sure if it was Prates, but thank you. Number nine, ranked welterweight. He is the favorite, though, so another ah a person who is ranked lower, but the favorite, 175 favorite year for Carlos Prates?
00:44:32
Speaker
tras Prates? Prates. Prates. Who you got in this one, Clubber D? You know, Leon Edwards, I'm a fan. I always like Leon. It's just he he reminds me of –
00:44:45
Speaker
the British boxer just lost to Alexander Usyk, brother. It's like, it's all about the confidence. um You know, he... no more Yeah, yeah yeah once it once... Daniel Du Bois.
00:44:59
Speaker
Oh, Du Bois. yeah debois just like why Yeah, Du Bois. It's all about the confidence with him. And when Leon Edwards... He looked scary when he was fighting Kamaru Usman. He was losing.
00:45:09
Speaker
Usman broke him down, and then he came back with that headshot, knocked him out. And then ah since you know um he's on a two-fight losing streak, he got choked out by Brady, and then he lost the belt to Bilal Muhammad. you know And fighting Carlos Brady. Remember the name.
00:45:26
Speaker
Goddamn right. Carlos Brady's, you know this guy, before he lost to Ian Gary, he was on a 10 fight TKO streak. Okay. This guy will knock the race off He's easy. He don't play.
00:45:37
Speaker
And I feel like wolf with, with, with, with damn Leon Edwards, having Nate Diaz of all people, rock him, who really doesn't have that much punching power, i this this might be the the melatonin of the other the other night. This might be the melatonin alert. This might be the time to go to sleep. He might be from that section of Nate Diaz.
00:46:00
Speaker
Who else got knocked out bad that I'm missing? ah Not Nate Diaz. Nate Robinson. Nate Robinson. that's what he guys to speak at theoitch All those dudes got knocked out asleep with the toes curled up, you know, fighting frightened for air in La La Land. He might, he might be part of the Fellowship of the Ring. The Fellowship!
00:46:23
Speaker
Ship of country. forgot what it's called, but Netherland, Otherland, whatever it is yeah He might be in the Shadow Realm. That's where it is. He might be in the Shadow Realm. Like Narnia? He gonna be out in Narnia? He will be the the the witch, the wardrobe, Nyan, whatever. He's going into closet and he ain't coming back. Okay, so I feel like Leon Edwards will get knocked out in the first round, all right? Because Carl's Brady's playing, all right? And view if you do not, if you got don't have your guard over you you come in timid or nervous, you saw what he did with Jeff Neal with one second left in his last fight, knocked him out. Jeff Neal was no slouch.
00:46:55
Speaker
Carl's Brady's, he will put you to sleep. And if unfortunately, Leon Edwards, yeah yeah you might be ah one minute you're standing up, the next minute thinking about Paddington the Bear. So it is what it is.
00:47:06
Speaker
A former world champion. Just going down in the first round. Wow. All right. Well, there you go. Make sure you're sure I'm writing that down. That's a big one.
00:47:17
Speaker
KO1. First round KO. All right. Here we go. All right. Let's move it into the next one. This is Sean Brady versus Michael Morales in a welterweight bout. So, um again, remember, y'all, when we're looking at these welterweight bouts like the Leon Edwards matchup,
00:47:35
Speaker
um and and Carlos Prates and the Sean Brady versus Michael Morales. These are both bouts that are people trying to get to that title fight to fight the winner of the main event if they you know can can continually move up.
00:47:49
Speaker
And Sean Brady here is the number two ranked welterweight in the world. Michael Morales is number eight from Ecuador. Sean Brady is a 135 favorite here, while Michael Morales is a 114 underdog. So very close here.
00:48:05
Speaker
uh say the say the odds makers clubber D what say you loves bangers excuse me as burp right when I'm about to talk um this fight is a styles clash you know uh you got you got Sean Brady who's a great wrestler right uh he's fighting out of Philly he has ah that that that townie Philly accent you know and you tell that's he's great Philly guy and uh you know
00:48:31
Speaker
Morales can touch him, Paul. He can knock him out. He does have that power, but can he defend and take down? Can he stop Brady from taking down, dragging him out, ragdoll him for three rounds? This isn't a five-round fight. This is a three-round fight.
00:48:43
Speaker
Can he do that? And that's going to the main thing, okay? um you know Yes, Sean Brady did lose to Bilal Muhammad. Bilal Muhammad's a wrestler, though. ah yeah Morales is going to he's goingnna have to show that he can stop the takedown. If he can stop the takedown, he can knock him out.
00:48:58
Speaker
I'm sure he can. But Sean Bray is relentless, and he's not bad on the feet. okay so oh you know With this fight, um I'm going to have to go with a grind him out Three rounds.
00:49:12
Speaker
Morales will have some ah he'll have some good offense. He will he will look good at some points, but I'm going with Sean Brady for a decision. Unanimous decision. All right. Unanimous decision for Sean Brady. Now, he is the number two rank, so that would obviously, and if you're looking at rankings, and not Dana White doesn't always go by rankings, but he is good enough to go by rankings. This will put ah Sean Brady up for the next title fight for the winner of this main event.
00:49:39
Speaker
Is that what you see? e Because he's the number two ranked welterweight. So technically by rankings, he should be up next, right? Yeah, but Dana White does what Dana White Islam's already called out somebody if Oh, okay. I didn't hear about that. so okay All right. yeah We'll wait to hear about it.
00:49:58
Speaker
right. Cool. Well, let's move it into our co-main event. This is going to be a motherfucking banger. it I mean, this is two of the best women fighters of all time. Two of the goats.
00:50:13
Speaker
I read a stat the other day, Clubber D, that these ladies have only taken one loss in a non-title fight. All other losses have come in title fights, and they have a list of amazing fighters that they have both demolished. Coming into this fight, Valentina Shevashenko, 25-4-1. Zhang Weili is 26-3-0.
00:50:35
Speaker
Both coming off a win. Shevashenko does own a one-inch height advantage and has ah some weight on her as as well. Now, UFC is listing her at nine pounds heavier.
00:50:48
Speaker
I don't know that to be completely true. Okay. yeah So she'll be, she'll be less. Okay. But she does own that four inch reach advantage and two inch leg reach advantage as well. She is the favorite 135 here. Zhang Wei Li, the underdog at 114. So very, very close again with the odds makers. This could go either way. Clubber what do you have for this? Yeah. So Shanko who the bullet, uh,
00:51:14
Speaker
fighting out, I think it's Kyrgyzstan. but where guess Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan. I know that. um And then you have... ah and fucked up It's a different country. It's a stand? There's lot of stands out there.
00:51:29
Speaker
So, and and you got Jingwei Li fighting out in China. And, ah you know... 137 being a bullet and 136 being Zhang Weili.
00:51:40
Speaker
ah Like you said, I think that Nans had a fight. i don't i don't know who she she had made a loss to with that fight, but she's fought Amanda Nunez. She's fought a hughes who's who being Shevchenko. You know, Zhang Weili, out of all her fights, she's in in the UFC. She's only lost to Rose Namunas back to back.
00:51:57
Speaker
Other that, she is dominated and she's she's on a five fight win streak. Wow. Again, these ladies have fought a who's who of of everybody. And I ah i put a poll up on my page, ClubberD at YouTube, on what fight you're excited look for this weekend. And this is the fight that I said out of this fight, the main event, or even ah Ben versus Eubank Jr. This is the fight that I want to see, OK?
00:52:20
Speaker
This fight, I might take one sock on and leave one sock off, OK? I don't know the sock hope would not what I think it means. outs because I just for that. fight night.
00:52:38
Speaker
but um so you know it's this fight is going to be the fight of the night we'd find the night club by the weekend fight of not the century, but it'll be up there, okay? This is probably one of the best women's fights we'll ever see.
00:52:49
Speaker
And I'm hyping it up. Watch it be a one-round knockout. It will be. Oh, man. I hope it's good. um um I'm going to say five rounds of war. Five rounds of just back and forth, putting those D-beaters on each other, back and forth. If you swing the other way, those C-touches back and forth on everyone else. I'd change it. you know So this is going to be a great fight. I'm going to go with...
00:53:14
Speaker
The champion. Yes. I'm going with Jang Wei Li. Whoa! Whoa! think she's going to be more active. She's going to be more active than Shevashenko and close the distance.
00:53:35
Speaker
That's what i'm going with. And I love Valerie. I know I'm going against her, but I have to go with Zhang Weili. Two things. Wow. think she's going to be more active. And two, they don't want to lose that that market in China. So they want to keep her champion.
00:53:50
Speaker
Wait, so you're saying Dana White may intervene somehow? Is that what you're saying? No, that's the wrong country. So I'm going with ja Okay, wow.
00:54:02
Speaker
I mean, oddsmakers do have it close. So, you know, it's nothing wrong with going that way. I just expected you to go the other way because we usually always go with Sheva Shanko on this program, at least because she's a beast.
00:54:14
Speaker
But no, I hear you. Jang Weili has proven her worth as one of the best fighters ever, and I could see this going either way. I'm going to go opposite of you, though. I am going to say Shevashenko. I agree with you. I wanted to go five rounds, so split decision is fine with me. um But, yeah, I'll take Shevashenko. But, yeah, Weili in a hard-fought decision is Clubber D's pick there, and I've gone with Shevashenko. Let's move it on to the main event of the evening.
00:54:44
Speaker
I'm not wrong with the What happened? I'm not wrong at your pick either. I'm not wrong at that. They can go that way. Okay. Yeah. We'll see what happens. ah They're both, I mean, like you said, they're book two of the best fighters ever in the women's division.
00:54:57
Speaker
um ah Out of Australia, the champion quiet, but he is an animal. Jack Della Maddalena as the 230 underdog here though, in this fight, this welterweight championship going up against Islam Mahachev, who is a former lightweight champion and has moving up now here.
00:55:19
Speaker
He is the 285 favorite out of Russia at 27-1. JDM, as I'll call him because it's easier, is Both coming off wins.
00:55:31
Speaker
JDM owns a one-inch height advantage and obviously the weight advantage that we just talked about, one weight class. He also has a 2.5-inch reach advantage, Clubber D. So what are your thoughts on this huge, huge main event?
00:55:47
Speaker
i was I was listening to the MMA guru. He's one the I trust his judgment. And he said something that never thought of. And he said that ah JDM fights like a bigger Dustin Poirier.
00:55:59
Speaker
And i thought about it. he's He's a very good grappler. You know what I'm saying? He can he can stop takedowns. But can he stop Islam's takedown?
00:56:10
Speaker
That's to be the main thing. Bala never took him down. Bala was just... wanting to fight standing up which is just so weird to me because his stand-up's not that good and balan muhammad not want to take ah jdm down was was his downfall he was just getting tagged his eye looked like a mitts meet um you know at the end of that fight um you know jdm weird story about jdm he lost his first two fights and he's been on a winning streak since then um he he's one of those people like you say he's very quiet because people don't really know about him he's he's fighting out of australia but
00:56:43
Speaker
Islam's moving up. Islam, they called a weight bully at 155. So this is dominant at 155. Is that because he came in a lot heavier? How's that going to translate at 170? Is he going to be, what, that's a pause?
00:56:57
Speaker
Weight translate? Came in heavier? I mean, that's a post. I accept it. But when he showed up fight day, he weighed a lot more on the scale than others possibly. And then at 170, how's going to translate? Is he going to be ah is he not going to fill out, be the smaller guy, Paul's, in the in ah in the cage? Or is he going to be, you know, because JDM, he fights at 170. Who knows if he's coming in at 180, 190 that day.
00:57:28
Speaker
Who knows what well Islam's going to come in that day. So um I think the weight's going to mean a lot. That's why I have a caveat for this fight. um I would like to see how he's going to live on fight day.
00:57:40
Speaker
You know, I need to pause, but I want to see how Islam fills out on Saturday before the fight. Cause you know, that, that plays a factor. Cause you weigh in, ah so you weigh in first thing in the morning. That's why when they show the weigh-ins at the end of the day, they've already weighed in that morning. the, It's already good. When you guys see the scale and the people, ah, Jared, that's fake. That's all for show. That's not the real way. That's just getting on the scale, doing a face-off. Hey, you know what's funny?
00:58:04
Speaker
is know that they did that for for some places, but I didn't know that all places did it. And when I went to the dirty boxing thing the other day, they had already done the weigh-ins way earlier in the day. It was just ceremony and stuff. Okay.
00:58:18
Speaker
It's why bring the scale out? Who cares? It's not real. So they show, like when when Daniel Cormier, when he cheated on the scale, he grabbed the towel and kind of did that against Oldsmire, whatever his name was.
00:58:30
Speaker
ah You make weight first thing in the morning. If you don't make weight, depending on where you are, you have time to make weight. So at the end of the day, they do the weigh-in. So at the end of the day, at like nine o'clock, they want you to weigh in early and then replenish yourself.
00:58:43
Speaker
The quicker you weigh in, the quicker you can replenish yourself. So that's why, like when Canelo fought Charlo, uh, weighed them early, or they made the weighings little later, kind of like, ah you know, kind of mess with your weight a little bit, and you can't replenish. And then also sometimes... Right, that makes sense, yeah.
00:58:59
Speaker
You can't gamble so much. Like, if you if you fight for the IBF belt, you can't weigh more than 10 pounds, the the red belt in boxing. can't have to weigh more than 10 pounds. So you got to monitor yourself. You can't get too full.
00:59:10
Speaker
But, um yeah, that's why the way you went early... would... Just a question on that, then. If... Let's say that because in an organizational standpoint, if you're one of the boxing organizations, in my mind, one of the reasons also that you would want to do it early in the morning so that could they get replenished is a safety issue.
00:59:30
Speaker
Right. So that they're they're ready for the next day and your organization doesn't get sued if like they didn't get proper rehydration. Is that how that works? That's on the fighters. That's That's your team. You weigh in. You're good to go after that. you know but ah if you know That's why you see a lot of people drinking Pedialytes and stuff like that. they're trying to get all those newers back in their body. So on fight day, they can go. But back in the day, they used to fight you same day same day boxing because you had weight bullies like ah Rest in Peace. You had a uh aturo god he used to weigh like 20 20 pounds over fighting people at like 135 130 or whatever weight class he was so that's why there's weight they call people weight bullies like devin haney used to kill himself getting to 135 uh you know and now he's fighting at 147 so um you know that was gonna see for islam well how will the weight transfer over will he be the bigger guy in their polls or will he be you know same as as a
01:00:25
Speaker
ah JDM. So that that to me is one of the caveats for this fight because oh standing up, JDM's a better stand-up guy than Islam. Islam, course, he had the you know the kicks against Volkanovski and knocked out um Charles Oliveira, but you know he's not going be able to do all that with JDM. I don't think he's going to able to do that. I think he's going to do what Belial Muhammad didn't do and take him down.
01:00:48
Speaker
He already called out, if he wins, he's calling out he called out the welterweight goat, that being Kamaru Uzma. I would love to see how that fight. Islam versus Uzma. I would to see that. Hell yeah, shit.
01:01:02
Speaker
Uzma was like, yeah, out hell yeah, I'll take that fight because he just beat Joaquin Buckley. So
01:01:07
Speaker
With this fight, this is what I'll say. I'm still thinking about that fight. That's going to be a great fight. in yeah Islam against Kamala Uzman. So he already called him out. And I don't think he's trying to put the cart before the horse. I'm just saying, going this with that and overstepping JDM. the JDM is no slouch.
01:01:23
Speaker
This is what I will say for this fight. Gloves, bangers. If it goes, if Islam wins, he will win within the first three rounds.
01:01:34
Speaker
There will have to be a stoppage or submission in the first three rounds. If it goes past three rounds to decision, I think JDM, that means that Islam wasn't able to take him down or JDM what jdm was able to get out of the takedowns. If he was held on the ground, he was able to get up, keep us standing up. If it stays standing up, JDM is going to win.
01:01:56
Speaker
I'm telling you that right now. it was He will win if it's standing up the whole time. So if Islam cannot take him down, JDM will win by decision. Okay, so I've got Islam. Is it a sub or a TKO minus three? i'll say I'll say sub. I'll say sub. Okay.
01:02:11
Speaker
And then JDS is unanimous or split, I'm assuming, right? It'll be unanimous. It'll be unanimous. Oh, unanimous. Okay. Because you're assuming that he's escaped his takedown so much and stayed on his feet. you Okay. All right. Wow!
01:02:25
Speaker
Doing those. That's crazy. because you're not the only one picking JDM. Some people are saying, you know, he's very quiet. I know when I was talking to Adarius yesterday, he was saying, look, man, I would probably go with JDM too just because of how quiet he is and but that he's an animal. Like, he doesn't have to talk a lot in order to kind of be the fighter that he is.
01:02:44
Speaker
um He was comparing himself to him. His leg wants be 3-0 against Australia because, you know he beat Volganovski twice. So he might want to be 3-0 against Australia. And I believe they train together. So, you know, it is what is. I could be wrong. Who does? Islam and JDM? JDM's Australian. So I think him and him and I train together. Got it.
01:03:03
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. Okay. um All right. Well, there you go. There's your Clubber D club bangers for UFC 322. Let me give you a rundown of those. I will put the video out tomorrow. He has Benoit St. Denise with a unanimous decision.
01:03:19
Speaker
Carlos Prates KO won. Brady, the Sean Brady unanimous decision. Jang Weili, split decision. And then a cover caveat in your main event, Islam under three.
01:03:32
Speaker
You go ahead and make sure you bet a submission. Over three, you're going with that JDM unanimous decision. That's right. I am going to take Islam. I'm going to go opposite you again. I'm sorry. have to. I think Islam is just...
01:03:47
Speaker
will say we ought Yeah, yeah i just think he's I just think he's too tough. And yeah, I know he's he's moving up in weight, but he's just been a killer at at lightweight. So I don't know. Again, and he's and he and every time I see him fight, it's always like, yeah, well, let's hope that the guy can avoid him. And then he takes him down the first round and just holds on to him. as a And now look.
01:04:09
Speaker
I'm kind of one of those fight fans. Like I understand. I used to be a wrestler, so I understand that not a good one, but and I wrestled in high school. I understand that wrestling is needed, but I am one of those.
01:04:22
Speaker
I lean more towards the exciting fight fans. I want you to stand up. I want you to throw them blows kind of thing, but I know that wrestling is needed. So when you have somebody who wrestle so much, you know, you get the fans that are there, especially live people that have paid for that ticket. And they're like, we want more action.
01:04:39
Speaker
And all you're doing is laying on the ground. You know, I can see people getting put off by that because sometimes I tune out as well. Yeah, definitely. and And you got to understand, that's why I kind of was, that's why my whole issue with the whole ah Islam's weight at 155 is because it came in heavier and he was dominating because it was hard for him to make 155. That's why I'm wondering, that's why it's not, it's hard. It's not, it's not easy for me just to say he's just going to win outright because I don't know how that's transfer over to the higher 155 170. That's a big jump.
01:05:10
Speaker
You know saying You don't see, you got what saying? That is the biggest jump. I remember Kevin Lee said this. He wanted 165 division because, you know, you know You got 145. That is a huge jump. i mean where where Where do you do that at? That's crazy. 155 going to 170. That's a big jump because if I'm 170 pounder, I probably walk around 190-ish. If I'm 155 like BJ Penn, when he moved up, I might walk around at 170 or right around there. so If I'm walking around at this weight and you're coming in at 190, 200, you know what I'm saying?
01:05:40
Speaker
so That's where I'm kind of like, yeah, it's a very big jump. Yeah. All right. Well, there you go. There is, again, your cupboard d Club RD Club bangers.
