00:02:36
Speaker
Yeah, that that was a good one, Omar, because I was about to say that period stops you from being a man sometimes, but you know what I mean? But we're back, okay? Spotty service or not, we're back in this mug. And nice hat you got there, Omar, if anyone called that joke right there, but y'all probably didn't, could just slope. But Omar, I like that hat you got there, that's pretty nice. What does that say? well Well, my friend, I saw that you looked like you were going to a basketball game tonight, and I know you're near and dear to your heart, super team sons are playing tonight, so I decided to- rock a little bit of champion Celtics wear, which I know your your team aspires to be to be one of those. I mean, I could play live, you know, so if I could play live or 2K, you know, something to make the the chip and I can get it because I thought, you know, right now, Ryan Dunn is going to be working here. I said it.
00:03:19
Speaker
I've been playing 2K lately, so I'm going to boost his his hiss levels up to ah ah become a rookie of the year. But actually, I don't play 2K. I don't play basketball games. But it's OK. It's OK. We're all right. It's a combat
Boxing Event Highlights and Community Shoutouts
00:03:30
Speaker
show. We're not here to talk about sports. How dare. That's still a something to bet on. If you all are out there bet in the betting community, you want to place say a flyer on a sleeper. Ryan Dunn for Rookie of the Year. But I would definitely place your bet on the Celtics repeating because I don't see any way.
00:03:46
Speaker
That doesn't happen even if there were injuries, it had to be multiple injuries. um So, and God forbid that happen. So anyways, how are things going up in in your area? I heard, and we'll talk about this a little later, but you were telling me ah you were at a recent boxing event. Do you want to shout them out and then we'll get into it later?
00:04:04
Speaker
Yeah, shout out to Lamaro Sr. His son Lamaro Jr. will be fighting Tank Davis, I think it's December 15th, down in Texas. I wish the fight was up here because you got somebody from DZ, somebody from Baltimore. It's been a great fight here up in the DMV. You could have had that up at ah was it Capital One Arena where to where to the Wizards play. But his son, I mean, I'm sorry, yeah, his his dad put on a great promotion.
00:04:29
Speaker
Go on IG and add no excuse promotions. okay They put on great fights that over at Rosecroft where they had the horse racing and everything, but they had a great venue. A lot of people were there. I was hanging out with Josh from 86 boxing. I got to meet um mayor Ray and Wale from Urban Sports.
00:04:47
Speaker
Urban Sports Ray as them on IG. Good people ah got to meet a good, a legend in the community. A guy who interviews just about everybody, light-skinned Lou. This guy is amazing. Find him on IG. He is the man, this guy.
00:05:03
Speaker
I'm telling you, from high school football to boxing, he's like the DMV wild-core Marr. You know what I'm saying? He's out there. He'd be on the field doing all that good stuff. But yeah, it was a great experience. Got to see some great fighters. I think it's Jordan Roach, Lebond Roach Jr.'s Lebond Roach's brother. Lebond. He keeps saying Lebond like, you know, Lebond Sanford, anyways. But his brother fought.
00:05:32
Speaker
not to do it out. I feel bad because this prospect star put on a lot of good fighters from the DMV and they're all young and when the guys they put in there, you know, I'm not going to say tomato cans because a lot of these fights were very competitive and a lot of these records were pretty close. But damn, some of these ass whoopins. Good grief. I'll tell you right now. ah That's funny that you say that. um Because as you have been as well going to uh many events uh boxing events and spend expanding your outreach as well has have I as we know with the country box so shout out yeah here Nashville you'll make sure you're subscribed to them November 5th is when they have their next uh bout here in Nashville Tennessee but also I say that laughing because the same thing is is kind of in that promotion as well you see a lot of
00:06:26
Speaker
A lot of veterans trying to still make their way. That's what I'll say because I don't want to despair due to
UFC 308 Preview and Fan Engagement

I like it. I like the art. Yeah. Thank everybody again for tuning in. What is up? Our brother Jason. Yes, tuning in. look at Jason.
00:09:11
Speaker
Uh, you don't need to apologize, but we did get a warning. So we're just going to need to, you know, but that's okay. We don't need to apologize. We didn't get no trouble. ah let's get this ne future Party moving.
00:09:24
Speaker
Let's get into, well, before we get into UFC 308, we had the previous event UFC 307, obviously. And the main event there um was Alex Pereira defeating Khalil Rountree by TCO Strikes in round four, but I know that you wanted to touch on a couple other fighters in here, so I'm going to list off those fights and just give us your thoughts on on on these, your quick thoughts on these fights. First of all, I know you love her. Miss Kayla Harrison defeated Kelsey Vieira by unanimous decision. What are your thoughts on that?
00:10:03
Speaker
Uh, that's a fight I believe I called that right at that car. I think I only miss like two. I think the main event was a stretch, but I'd explain it. I was able to explain myself why we were cool around three and that, uh, although fight that they call for other dude, although one, that fight, er everybody knows that. But, um, yeah, Kayla Harrison, she's probably be next in line for, uh, for, uh, Julia Pena, if they don't run that back with, uh, with, uh, Pennington.
00:10:27
Speaker
But i yeah, I knew she was there. I had a feeling she was going to win this one, you know, with her judo and her how strong she is. Like they call her like a female Brock Lesnar. So I thought she had a feeling she had a feeling she's going to run through her. You know what I'm saying? But that she's going to be a name on the rise. oh I will not be shocked. If they do not run back with Raquel, she will get the next title shot going against Julia Fedya. That was my question because it was so close. It was a split decision.
00:10:55
Speaker
um Do you believe that's what they will do next, is run that back? Or do you think they'll have interim of competitors in the meantime? I think they'll run with Kayla because you know you know how da Dana White is. now it was a close It was a close fight towards the beginning, but that I didn't have a penny of winning it, to be honest with you, even though I pictured her winning the fight. on But you know how Dana White is. Kayla Harrison is a star, and she he she is somebody that he could market.
00:11:17
Speaker
so ah he she He probably will tell Rockell Pennington, go ahead, play in the corner for a second and just let them fight. Because you know how he is. He's all about making money and putting in ah putting asses in the seats. He wants you once you want Samantha going to Wegmans to say, hey, you see that Kayla Harrison fight? He wants her to
Fighter Analysis and Predictions
00:11:31
Speaker
say that. He want he was he was he wants Janice that goes to Foodline to say, hey, you see that Kayla Harrison fight the other day? They want the Commodores to say that stuff. So if that's not going to happen with Rockell Pennington, OK, but Kayla Harrison kind of moves the needle a little bit.
00:11:44
Speaker
So I'm one, I'd say a 92% sure that that's going to be the next fight. Now, how do you feel about your boy Aldo? Because obviously he's one of your favorite of all time, but he barely lost here to Bautista. Now it's not like Bautista is a main eventer or anything, but you know um does he keep fighting or or what does he do? Because right now it seems like he's and going to start going to gatekeeper territory in some after After that fight, I was still ah either running back or getting somebody with the same or similar caliber. um He can still go. It wasn't his fault that he lost, Batista just didn't want to engage. He was backing up. Aldo was stopping him. Aldo was stalking him down. Batista had maybe around one, but after that, Aldo took over. that It's one of those fights where one as fights where, you know, even though he lost, he really won because air everybody was booing. And I believe even Dana White said he thought he won. So I would still keep him there. He's not like in that Kevin Holland.
00:12:39
Speaker
area just yet, but I will keep Aldo right there. Fight somebody in like a top ah five to 10 in that range, five to 10 range, you know. Which by the way, that's a great point out right there, right? You you also mentioned the fight right before that. Kevin Holland, injury stoppage. What what he were your thoughts about that fight, injuries stop yeah injury in the first round? Yeah, I mean, he did I think it was a stancho he did. I think he did break his rib.
00:13:09
Speaker
You know, I think it was bad at the time, yeah and but I mean, it is what it is with Kevin Holland. He's, he's, he's a a lovable gatekeeper. He's somebody I can, you know, who put on a good show. He'll talk a lot of shit. He'll, he'll do what he has to do to get the, guy know he's goingnna throw those dick beaters yeah, i love you gee yeah he's easy yeah he's something you throw something all right over there.
00:13:31
Speaker
You either pause one to what you're saying, but uh, but yeah, so he's uh, Kevin Holler. I mean, I will come back. He'll definitely come back because he's he's he's a fan favorite. You know I'm saying he's the he's the he's the he's like three notches below a Nate Diaz. I'll say that. OK, and then finally maybe the the main event. I'll let you already talked about the co main event with the ladies. The main event Alex Breyer defeating Khalil Roundtree 432 of the fourth round, so almost at the end of the fourth round.
00:13:58
Speaker
a I think that would have been one of your thoughts. I mean, first two rounds arguably could be could have gone round through his way. He did knock him down in the second round. with He caught him with his forearm when Querrey did like a spin move. The reason why I sent you my picks and I said round two, I thought round two were ones because this is a fight that Querrey didn't have to do. Okay. Round two I think was ranked like seven. And this is prayer of the second or third title defense in the last seven months or whatever. It's a get busy fight. He wants to stay busy, but prayers 37 years old, you know what I'm saying? But he did not have to take this fight. So two things that I think they're trying to get him to get to that record, as far as just building him up, as far as many towel defenses in a certain amount of months, maybe a point in figuring out John Jones, what the hell you doing? That's another story. Or, and also round trees, similar to like a Leon Edwards type to where it's all about
00:14:53
Speaker
It's all about confidence. If he's confident, he can win. And his strikes are deadly. You know, he's getting mad, he's getting tired of Thailand, ah what got better on his movie tie. And you he'll stay he'll stand with you, he'll kick with you. But the thing is, prayers like ah he's like he's like similar to John Jones at that weight class. The man's like 6'4", long as hell falls. And you know his kicks are deadly. That calf kick is debilitating. He hits that nerve and you you're looking around, you're doing the stinky legs. So I just felt like,
00:15:20
Speaker
Oh yeah, like we're side Evans against the old Machita. So I feel like it's it's one of it was one of those fights where he could have he could got caught could have got caught and and went down, which he did go down when he got back up. And Dana White, you know, you can mark a prayer because there's somebody fighting on this card that he don't want prayer to fight because prayer is wrestling, it's garbage.
00:15:41
Speaker
It's terrible, not good. You keep putting in there with people that can stand up and he's going to take them all out. So I see what Dana White is doing. Don't be surprised if Fred and I move up to heavyweight either probably next year. If he has maybe one or two tile defenses, but I think he might move to heavyweight. Thanks for that. all wait And so speak on that, who are you talking who are you alluding to there? I'll wait to our card. I want you to go over go over to heavyweight.
00:16:06
Speaker
yeah Well, everybody checking in, how did you feel about UFC 307? Alex Pereira with the TKO. I'm going to follow up with the professor's question. good we go john You mentioned John Jones twice in that in that in that analysis, that astute and a beautiful analysis you just gave us. True, John Jones. mother who was awful I I accepted.
00:16:33
Speaker
What's the number? I don't know Mike Jones's number, like most people don't. Dale, Dale knows it. Dale knows Mike Jones? Snail knows it. If you know Mike Jones's number, please send it in the comments so we can remember. All right. So just to do like back inside of baseball, we had a chat one time and a fellow was going around saying they need the help. And can I get your number? You know, one of those people, you know, we don't have dusty friends that are that are broke without deal like the copy and paste scam. And they're like, hey, I really need your help. They're like, what you need?
00:17:02
Speaker
Uh, blah, blah, blah. What's your number? They'll put Mike Jones's number on there. All our friends know who we're talking about. We all know who you're talking about. I gotta say that. I'll leave it at that. I'll leave it at that. That was great. For everybody, we enjoy you. Thank you for tuning in. Don't come begging. We ain't giving you shit. Don't come begging. All right? Talk on it.
00:17:23
Speaker
Hey, everybody like hit that like button right now. I see you. Thank you for those likes that came in. Hit that like hit that love whatever it is that you want to hit. Drop a comment for us. Let us know you're here listening and watching. We really appreciate you again. Ball and Buds B-A-L-L-A-A-N-E. My man. Oh, my brother. Yeah, my guy. whatever ever We're gonna cook something pretty soon. But yeah, let's keep rolling. oh I like it. All right.
00:17:50
Speaker
like Listen, that's exactly right. Let's keep it moving to UFC 308 this Saturday from Abu Dhabi, the Ethod Arena. um The main event will be Iliad Taporia putting his title up against the former champ Max Holloway. And then in the co-main event, we have the ex-USC middleweight title holder, Robert Whitaker, one of your favorites. I know he's a tough one fighter.
00:18:19
Speaker
ah facing asmachamiah um And these bouts occur. There's a ah possible title eliminator earlier in the in the card. Mad Men against Ross. Yep. And then so this is going to be a stacked and packed card as we will expect when they go overseas. um Let's go ahead and I know we're obviously
00:18:51
Speaker
Oh, going to talk about the code and the main event. But do you want to talk about so eliminator? Am I here? There you go. All right. Now we we're back. yeah Yeah, there we go. You're back. You shot yours up. What happened?
00:19:16
Speaker
No, you're saying what you're saying. Can you hear me? Yeah.
00:19:20
Speaker
Can you hear me? yes Yeah, okay no ah no I Okay. okay okay No, go ahead and talk about the Onkalev versus Rockage rocket fight, please. All right. so ah So that's who I was talking about earlier. what I think Dana White is hiding from Uh, Aspera is, is, uh, it's Magomedov, uh, on Kilev. I'm going to pronounce it. I'm going to butcher his name. So I'm going to say Magomed, but he's part of the Dagestan wrestling crew with of, of, of, uh, Khabib and the rest of them. So he's only had one loss in the UFC and that was a last minute submission to Paul Craig in London. Okay. Since then he's torn through just by everybody in the UFC. He's just like all the other two or five receipts knocked out Johnny Walker. That was the last fight when he followed, uh, over an Abu Dhabi, um,
00:20:09
Speaker
And he had a draw with Yampa Hovitch, who got the belt. That was his title title. I think it was his title fight against Yampa Hovitch. And that's, and he had a draw with him, which is this pretty boring fight. This guy's a A1 superstar wrestler. Okay. And that's who you do not want Pereira to fight. You can't have him fight a wrestler because he fought Yampa Hovitch. I thought Yampa Hovitch won that fight, but ah they gave it to Pereira. It was his first fight at 205.
00:20:32
Speaker
but you can't have him fight a wrestler. So if you fight a wrestler, it'd be just like when Suga Shane just lost to the machine Marat recently, okay? And that's who Dana White didn't want him to fight. So that's the cash cow, keep the cash cow away from the villain, Madam Man. But yeah, Rockage, he's the one that's in that um highlight where Khalil Rancher, he does that John Jones oblique kick and kick the side of his kneecap and basically shredded, isn't he? I think that that that that move should be illegal. John Jones is doing it against a Rampage. Rampage said he still limps to this day, but he's a good fighter out in Serbia. He knocked out Dominic Rea. It's pretty bad a couple of years ago, but this is this is a good fight at 205. Magomed should win because they're fighting Abu Dhabi, and he's going to have to power up. I mean, you mentioned you mentioned mentioned you mentioned that he beat two former heavyweight champions.
00:21:26
Speaker
yeah Yeah, you mentioned that he beat two former ah champions. Okay. Who? Michael Bette? Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. Yeah, to get to this point. Right. To get to this point, right? No. he job behold Right. I think you might be off there, buddy, or slow down or something. No, yeah. Once you get out, come back in or something. But, yeah, so...
00:21:55
Speaker
Maga Med, Maga Med, yeah. So this fight, he should, he should get a rocket shot. He should beat him. um But I just feel like they're slowing. um he's gonna he's gonna ascend up to become champion if he beats uh rockets and then finally goes against uh alex poera as omar hops out and hop back in because he was pop locking and doing all that stuff i don't know what the hell he was saying but you know but anyways i'm gonna talk to you guys um but yeah this this this fight i'm i'm pretty pissed because the serial gun uh fight is off on his card that was gonna be another good banger um
00:22:29
Speaker
We got Jeff Neal going against, uh, uh, hafios of the Santos. That's to be a pretty good card. Um, and I got, I got Jeff Neal winning that. You're back. We good. Yeah, we're good. All right. Every good. Now we're rocking. Rolling. Yeah. I got my command. I got my command witness.
00:22:44
Speaker
Okay. Awesome. yeah Yeah. No, that was a, that was my, I, I, and before, I don't know what happened there. The internet was fine. And then all of a sudden it went haywire. But before my internet went haywire, my apologies to everybody. Uh, we were, I just wanted you to go ah into that because I knew that that's who you were alluding to that has the offensive wrestling that gives, that would give Alex Pereira a fit. So since I knew that.
00:23:06
Speaker
Why you had kind of alluded to him earlier? That's why I brought that fight up and wanted to see what your thoughts were on That and I and what I was trying to mention when I was interluding and my internet was messing up I was trying to say that I was agreeing with you and backing you up that it when he beat for Hachka and and when he and the other one black hovish and uh or when he fought them excuse me that that that both of those fights really uh prepared him for this fight that he's taking in this in in this card here that's what i was trying to get at before i was uh i don't think he fought uh yuri i don't think he fought him did he not i thought he fought both of them no no he fought he fought uh
00:23:51
Speaker
yeah He fought John Pahovich, but he didn't fight Yurio. He's fought only like Oldz Amir. He fought him. He's fought Anthony Smith, ah Tiago Santos. Okay, so I was mistaken then. Okay, my bad. I thought you looked at them. My bad, okay.
Strategy Deep Dive for UFC 308
00:24:05
Speaker
All right, cool. But he's next in line and they're there to hide him because his wrestling is, boop, it's up there. And he'll take, it'll be embarrassing for Alex Brown, unfortunately. Awesome. All right, well, I mean- What do you think for that though? do you that You mentioned earlier, you think he might escape to heavyweight. Do you think that is something that Dana White will let him do? Or do you believe that he'll have them fight first before that? I think it depends on what happens next month in New York. The day after Tyson fights, Jake Paul is going to be John Jones versus DPA Milchich in New York. So I think that's really going to depend on what happens with that fight.
00:24:48
Speaker
um The money fight will be if he moves up fights John Jones if John Jones doesn't retire. Yes, you do have ah The interim champion from ah England His name is drawn a blank, but you have him right there waiting who John Jones should be fighting as Yeah, to ah Tom Aspinall, you know, he's right there, um but I feel like John Jones is I mean, Stipe should be fighting that fight. But that we'll get into that when that week, because that will go to the Tyson fight too. But we'll we'll go where I'll go. I can go in on that one. That don't make no sense. But yeah, Jon Jones get another Jimmy. But I tell you right now, I can't i can't bet against Jon Jones. It's against my religion. I can't do it. So much as I want to see him lose, he always wins. Yeah, yeah. i Always wins. If you've been watching this program for the past two years, we are coming up on our second year anniversary. We're doing this show.
00:25:42
Speaker
If you've been watching that, you will know Clubber T's distaste for John Jones' activities outside of the ring, but it's very much a proponent and advocate of his skills and legendary status inside of the ring. Would that would I be able correct in saying that, sir? Inside a cage? he is He is the man. If he's not eye-poking,
00:26:13
Speaker
kicking knees he's the man he's like he's eating he you can't beat him you know I'm saying it I've only seen that man in my eyes I thought he lost three times no sorry two times it just didn't go Dominic Reyes and Gustafin Gustafin uh I thought he lost those fights they were close. Thiago Santos is another one I thought he lost but you know is where it is that he's about to not so I'm not gonna argue that you know he's undefeated only loss he had I think should be taken away was the Matt Hamill 12 degree elbow strike which is stupid you know he's beating my he's beating my Hamill's ass anyways but um you know he's he's the man he's he's he's he's he's be the who's he at 205 so all right
00:26:57
Speaker
Well, let's get into that co main event. Then we have that middleweight again, Robert Whitaker, obviously, you know, by at this point, very much so a gatekeeper, but a freaking warrior um and his and so finally, you know, Chamaev, who's was very shiny there for a while. um That shine has dulled for some fans out there on the Internet.
00:27:22
Speaker
um and and And again, anyways, Chamaya's most recent victory um was against Kamara Uzman. But that bout happened at middleweight. Now Chamaya is facing another ex-champ, this one at true middleweight. And Whitaker, right, again, is just a warrior that is going to bring it all to the ring and give everything he has.
00:27:49
Speaker
So, what are your thoughts on this, uh, huge main event, uh, co-mate event? Well, Hamzad, as my dog is about to get kicked out of my room here in a second. Um, Hamzad, I put it like this. The man's 13 and old, okay? He's 30 years old now. He came into U of C. He fought twice at two different weight classes in 10 days, uh, back in 2020. And then turned around in three months, fought at another weight class and ran through, uh, homeboy at,
00:28:16
Speaker
in September, think ah jared ah met murha I I probably messed his name up. But, so when he came into UOC, he was like the man, run run through everybody, okay? Three fights in like a three month span, okay? That's unheard of. Now, the issue with him is since then, he's literally fought basically once a year. The last time he's fought has been really been a year and it's gonna be five days when he fought Kamau Usman at a catchway to 180. He was supposed to fight, and then he had COVID real bad,
00:28:46
Speaker
He set out for a while, and then he was supposed to fight Nate Diaz, miss weight by nine pounds, and then ran through Kevin Holland for Gilbert Burns, that which was a great fight. That's why Gilbert Burns was very good. Excuse me. and um you know There's issues with him because Khabib basically said that, you know, he's hanging around the wrong people. He's starting to hang around more Muslims. And so he's moved all his moods. Yeah, he's a while and I was drinking too much doing whatever. But ah he's moved to Abu Dhabi. He lives there now. I don't know if he could fight in America right now. I really do not think he could fight in America because if he hangs out.
00:29:22
Speaker
he's he's sweet he's sweet and he's he's wrestled in one goal for a swedish national team but or i don't know if it's a national team but he's one goal for swedish swedish wrestling but he's chesnian and the chesnian dictator is on the list of america like you can't really mess with that guy so I don't think he's allowed back in America. You know, after he wins, he likes to yell a lot of bar, which is not, which is perfectly fine. But you know how these good old boys in America are when he yelled things that they don't so like that. Yeah. That's not what they, you got to read dreams. Darn it. Yeah. But ain't that stuff. They can get mad at you. So, um, this is a second fight in, in over a year. And I'm not a fan of what's going on with it, with his career, because it's like your flight, he's not young. He's always young, but he's 30, 30 years old.
00:30:05
Speaker
Fighting once every year is not really good. You know what I'm saying? It's not that great. You're fighting, you're fighting Robert Whitaker who fought there last year and knocked out a Ikram and one round knocked him out. Okay. Um, he's on two five weeks since losing to, uh, uh, do plus C and, um,
00:30:21
Speaker
He's a champion right now. So robert Robert Whitaker, he's still up in that upper echelon of, he's still a top fighter at middleweight. He's only 33 years old. So he's not that, he's still, you know, still a little ways to go. um His last eight fights, he's six and two. Only losses were to, I believe it was Izzy and Duke Lessey. So, you know, he's still, to me, I think he's still up there as a good middleweight fighter. This is gonna be a real big test for Shamaya. If he stands up,
00:30:52
Speaker
What is going on over there? I was trying to tell you, right? Yeah, the strap was like it. Jeremiah does what he did last time with Gilbert Burns and Kamara Usman. He might go to sleep because Kamara took that fight on two weeks notice and still almost won if it was a couple more rounds. But Usman's a way superior wrestler. He's not even a middleweight. He was a catchweight of 180. So what did that tell you about Chabaya?
00:31:15
Speaker
but for this fight, for Bobby Knuckles, for for the for for the reaper. Now you can hit it. For the reaper. Club bangers. Club bangers.
00:31:28
Speaker
Club bangers. I'm still going with Tamayo. I got Tamayo because it's going to be a third round knockout. Third round knockout. But yeah, I don't know why I said knockout. Take that away. It's going to be a third round submission. Yeah, or TKO because I don't think he's going to make them out, but yeah.
00:31:46
Speaker
Tamayev, I love Robert Whitaker, but ah you know, it is what it is. It is what it is. Well, there you go. Make sure you put in your bets at whatever service you love. Bandels, DraftKings, ESPN Bet, whatever it is. Make sure you put that in third round submission and or TKO, your choice there for Hazmat, Tamayev. And now we move to the main event of the year.
00:32:13
Speaker
A featherweight championship of the world. Ilya, Sephoria proven himself to be a light out finisher. Eight submissions and five KOs in his 15 wins.
00:32:29
Speaker
But his challenger has not been knocked out in a 33 fight career and has only been finished once, tapping to Dustin Poirier's triangle arm bar in his UFC debut 12 years ago. So Max is just a legend. And so what are your thoughts on this awesome main event?
00:32:57
Speaker
Well, I wrote down some stuff here cause I don't, I didn't, you know, I didn't feel to wear my glasses. I took my contacts out cause I left my contact case over at someone's mom's house. So I got to go get that pretty soon. <unk> it is i bring that Bring out the still water over here. Cause I forgot that too for my, my CPAP machine.
00:33:11
Speaker
but um has a name label And yeah, yeah. Name label and how good the water is going to be. You know what I'm saying? And look at y'all. Some of y'all women be acting like y'all don't be snoring, okay? Some of y'all are like, ah, you're wearing CPAP. You be cranking too. Some of y'all be snoring like a brother going up and down. Y'all need to check out too, okay? The feather just be going up and down and stuff like that.
00:33:33
Speaker
praise great during may and I was with this, I was with this, I was with this one, one young lady, you know, she, she brought her the covers. I thought she don't farted because the the feather, the covers don't start going. yeah no Let's not, let's not, I'm getting sidetracked. I get
Max Holloway Profile and Predictions
00:33:49
Speaker
it. I'm getting, I've been getting sidetracked some time thinking about stuff. But anyways, I had to write this down. Yeah. It was Dutch. I would have breathless funky too. Boy. I tell you what, I'll throw down there, but um look here.
00:34:03
Speaker
Max Holloway. Let me award. Make me laugh. Now, Max Holloway. All right. His sixth, his, I'm sorry, his seventh professional fight was in the UFC. His debut was against Dustin Poirier and he lost. This guy has fought a who's who. Okay. He has a total of 29 UFC fights. You, hush there. That's probably a snore right there. Anyway,
00:34:28
Speaker
he has a total ah pick my he has a total of 29 UFC fights okay 29 all right this guy has fought like i said he's fought a who's who and writes down to my i'm getting up there in age um this will be his if you're counting the bmf title this will be his 11th title fight okay out of 29 UFC fights. This is going to be his 11th title fight counting the BMF champion that we saw together. We were in Nashville. We must out not, not to address the gauge at the last second.
00:35:01
Speaker
I was going crazy. We were in Nashville. We had a bar. The fight was going on. He said, let's see me right here. Knock them out. I look over. I saw somebody throw a baby in the air. I don't know if they caught the baby, but somebody threw a baby in the air. They were still happy. I've never seen that before in my life. Only in Nashville, hanging out with Omar, somebody throws a baby in the air, reacting to a damn fight. That's wild. That's crazy. And we were the only... I remember that. That was almost my day.
00:35:27
Speaker
Well, that was that was a great, great venue, but but let's get back to this guy. He's what he's lost at Bocanowski three times for fought him three three times. He's fought Duster Poirier. Two times I believe he's fought Conor McGregor. He's fought Jose Aldo. He's fought ah ah um Omar Fonseca once. he You name it, he's fought the man, okay? He's fought everybody. That's by the way, he's probably going down as the best by the way of the ball time. ah You can put both of them down if you want to. Anyways, he's going for that strap again at age 32.
00:35:59
Speaker
he's still doing this. And I wish the fight that never happens when he's supposed to fight Khabib, he's moving up, champ versus champ, but he got sick the night before, has a fight that got robbed. We got robbed of that fight just like Khabib versus Tony Ferguson. We got robbed of that fight also. But yeah, that's Max Holloway. I just want to touch on him and his greatness. And by the way, it's a weight class. I used to weigh back in 1973, but I gained a couple pounds. I don't weigh that less anymore. But yeah, it's a poor.
00:36:26
Speaker
three miles 1973. I was 127 pounds one time. I used i used to fight. You ain't been 127 pounds since you came out your mama's womb. I don't want to hear that. I lost three times last week. I had diarrhea. Leave me alone. Anyways, but I'm Ilya Topora. Okay. This man is on the rise. Nobody's want to fight Connor. He wants to fight, uh,
00:36:47
Speaker
He wants to fight me. He wants to fight everybody. He wants to move up to 155 so that he can submit Islam, which is ridiculous. You're not going to be able to submit Islam, Makashev. And don't be talking spice like that when you're over in Abu Dhabi. Come on now. Remember where you read the room and know you're surrounded when you talk crazy like that. But he's defending the belt for the first time after beating Alexander Volkanowski, who might be a little too long and a two for that for the weight division.
00:37:11
Speaker
but um With him fighting, uh, uh, Max, you know, it's going to be a barn burner. You know, he's only had seven fights in the UFC. yes Four of them have been either performance or fire the nights. Okay. Um, so you know, they're going to come to scrap, but I think what Max is, even though he's 32 years old, he's been through a lot of head trauma. Paul's, you know, some of y'all's wives has been through a lot of head trauma, but it's a lot of head trauma. Okay. Or brook from whatever y'all want to call it.
00:37:37
Speaker
I mean, I didn't get sidetracked again. But the issue with Max Holloway, would you get that? I like that one. I like that one. You shot, you popped for that one. That was a good one. But Max Holloway, you know, there's there comes a time when a fighter gets punched off. You know, you got your, you got your I ain't ready yet. I got your, what was that? You got your, ah Yeah, a little bit of an echo. Never mind, it's gone. It's gone. We're good. Sorry about that, guys. Yeah, so you got your Chuck Liddell's, your other fighters, the things of that nature. So whatever a fighter has fought too much is a time when age or their their their their the physical form kind of deteriorates. And and for him, it's going to be his head, Paul's. If he gets hit in the head too many times, it's probably going to go down. um That stand-up warrior you had with Justin Gagee was great. It was great, but you can't be getting hit like that all the time.
00:38:37
Speaker
and You gotta be smarter. So with that being said, now you can do it. With that being said. Clubs bangers.
00:38:49
Speaker
Clubs bangers. Did you hear it? Max Holloway is getting submitted fourth round. I got him going. I've got him losing in the fourth round. Il Topor is going to defend the belt and win. And Abu Dhabi.
00:39:03
Speaker
And he's going to call out. He's going to call out Islam after three he does it. That's what I'm seeing. I can see it. I can feel it. I can smell it. Wow. Wow. OK, so listen to the prayer to the premium. She ends, my friends, as a broken Matt would say. Shout out to Hardy Brothers. ah So you have a chip or a submission in the fourth round.
00:39:30
Speaker
which is following a third round submission by Chamayev over Whitaker. Make sure you get those bets in. You heard it here first from the foremost, after after our good friend Daniel Cormier, foremost UFC expert club or do the combat G third round submission or TKO for Chamayev over Whitaker and a fourth round submission for Ilya Taporia over Max Holloway, which would give him only his second finish, um, second time being finished, excuse me, in his illustrious 13 year career. Wow. Wow. Wow. I want to do it. I don't know if I should do a caveat because I honestly would be honest with you. I can see Max Holloway winning this fight.
00:40:18
Speaker
um But I'm not gonna I'm not gonna I'm not gonna that I'm not gonna hedge my bed I think he's gonna lose this fight um You know And he's five or three in his last eight, but I just I
Boxing Highlights and Betting Tips
00:40:28
Speaker
don't know to porous. He's different to me He's just he's a different type of fighter and um, I can see that the Islam call out and fighting in Abu Dhabi with where Islam's fought the last few times, you know, it's The money right there is just too much. You know what I'm saying? I could i could see Dana White. I could see him putting a drink with Abraham to go down in the fourth round. oh If y'all look at it, my last, the last pay-per-view, I was what? was it Was I like five and two or four and two or something like that? I think they had two. Four three. Who's the third one? I don't know. you it was It was something. It was like four and two or four. Somebody before two. I remember two. It was only two, two L's.
00:41:11
Speaker
two L's. So I would, I've been doing pretty good. All right. If if you don't believe me, ask your mother or on your wives, I don't like i mean it instagram days it's and Instagram. So they can just go check themselves. Everybody. If you're listening, all the, the 80 off go to the Instagram ball and buzz and see who I picked. Okay. All right.

00:43:43
Speaker
Arthur better be have became the first undisputed light heavyweight champion in the four belt era with a victory over Dimitri bevel and this was not yeah This past weekend but the weekend before so a week and a half ago Saudi Arabia 10 days ago to be exact better be have one uh better be have won 115 113 116 112 and there was one tied scorecard 114 114 he is now the undisputed four belt light heavyweight champion um entering the fight uh he came in obviously uh undefeated uh bevel is the one that came in uh obviously wasn't right just now but he's most known for his victory over canelo alvarez um
00:44:31
Speaker
heard had some things to say about this and about the scores of the fight as most promoters are want to do for their fighter because they want to protect their fighter even if the but the scores were close very very close so what was your what is your what are your thoughts on this decision do you agree with the decision and the question also follows what is next for these fighters well there's a thing um One thing I didn't like is the new internet thing, the new trend is to say robbery for everything. And it that's what I know when people actually watch boxing or haven't watched boxing. It's cool to like watch it now, kind of get into it. But, um you know, you got to know what the hell a robber is before you say robbery. Just cause you hear one person say robbery, don't go with that trend. Okay. If you ever seen Pernod Whitaker against who they're saying the shot is that's a robbery. If you ever seen a, a,
00:45:28
Speaker
Tim Bradley against Manny Pacquiao, that's a robbery. If you ever seen De La Hoya against Felix Stern, those are robberies. This was a close fight that can go on either way. It could have been a draw. It could have been the ball win. It could have been the NBA win. So it's not a robbery. So shout out to my man Tim over there, Scott Walker. Controversial, but I feel like it's, to me, controversial. I have to be very, very like,
00:45:58
Speaker
crazy stuff like controversial is Canelo getting a judge say Canelo won the fight against Mayweather with knowing he lost every round but maybe he won and that was a split decision that's ridiculous so for this fight for me I thought better bf1 by one possibly two because you can't you cannot win by backpedaling you can't all right you They've all fought a good fight, but you cannot you cannot win by doing this and walking backwards. You can't win like that. I'm sorry. No one's going to let you win like that. They're go they're doing it for the aggressor, instead of the pure boxer. And it's not like he was standing his ground sometimes, but he wouldn't stay standing his ground. He wouldn't do that. So that's why he gave it to better BS. And also, this man fought after four months of having meniscus surgery. okay And they tried to age him out. He was 39, about 40 years old.
00:46:48
Speaker
20 up 20 down now he's 21 and 20 okay so you know it is what it is but yeah i think oh but go ahead oh no go ahead no no i was gonna follow up but what do you think is next but i think that's where you were going sorry yeah so so next i feel like it has to be a rematch i think they've put out there that they're gonna fight again 2025 i and Is there something in the water for some of these cats that are like Russian Muslims to where they fight once a year and UFC in boxing because I swear on everything I swear That better be a fight once a year. Yes. He had the injury I get that but he fights once a year I know Ramadan is coming up in I think March this year ah but
00:47:32
Speaker
Islam fights like once a year. Hamza Shammai fights like once a year. Akhalea fights like once a year. So there's something in their contract where they just fight once. I just don't get this, but whatever. i'm not That's another story. But yeah, so they're saying maybe next 2025, like December or November. like that oh okay yeah okay what you said I I believe they said, sorry to interrupt. I believe they said there's going to have interim fights in the meantime, like one interim fight each. Well, the IVF once,
00:48:02
Speaker
IVF was going to strip better VF and let us give to some Johnny McJohnson where it is. Somebody who no one cares about who wants to have his title shot, but he wants to be
Boxing Controversies and Future Predictions
00:48:13
Speaker
the immediate rematch. They said only way we won't strip you is if we get the immediate rematch. So that So better be it has to fight the vault next, unless it's just going to be unified because the obvious going to strip that belt, which is just ridiculous. I mean, if he fights Johnny McDutton, whoever it is, he's going to get knocked out by better be, you know, say nobody knows who or cares about who this guy is. So, yeah, it's it's it's it's one of those things where the sanction bodies and and the different belts are all jumping in to kind of stop the people from getting to what we want to see, just like you got Tyson Fury ah fighting Usyk
00:48:49
Speaker
uh in december but that's unified because uh divorce is the ibf champion because they plucked out the other way already so you know it's the way they were yeah because i thought i had i had saw uh well i know i saw i read at least a couple of headlines after the fight that said that they were planning an interim fight each in between but like you said they're gonna be jonny mcdittens that are just gonna ah Get blown away anyway, so yeah, thank you thank you scott again for tuning in y'all make sure that you are subscribed at ball and bloods B-A-L-L-A-N-D-B-U-D-S everybody that's there right now subscribe

We're going to talk all the sports, including your MBA going on right now, including club or these sons going into the LA Clippers opening their new arena tonight. Make sure you subscribe to club or D stick dot at clubber.d. Let's move into the next fan mail.
00:51:02
Speaker
Hey, let's move into the next man. Ah, let's move into the next man. My question. ki z Tim zoo. Tim zoo got knocked out. Uh, and so with that happening with Crawford's indecision of who he's going to fight next, um, uh, the chic, uh, how the chic wanting him to fight, uh, Canelo and all these different avenues. What is next? Uh, what is the state rather of the one 54 division? Well, let me take a sip of this lovely juice.
00:51:35
Speaker
So the 154 is all jacked up, kinda. You got one champion in Crawford, you got Sebastian Fondora fighting Earl Spence, but I don't know what that fight, up and down, up and down, it's gonna happen, not happen. And then now you have Bacc, I'm not gonna pronounce the last name, who just beat Tim Zoo. And mind you, Tim Zoo, I think he should move up, get out of the 154 division. oh you know That was a nasty knockout. I mean, that was like,
00:52:00
Speaker
his corner should have stopped that before because when he got hit and got up like he was not defending the left hook it's kind of like Devin Handy going against Ryan Garcia put your hand up okay just stop what are you doing it was it was bad and they they threw in a towel um i don't know what the how those refs are but that ref kind of they let their fight in bingo hall but uh that ref let him get his butt whipped it was pretty bad but i think that so we got Baccam as a champion you have Crawford and then he got Fondora that has two belts and Fondora was supposed to get stripped of the WBO give that Crawford but I don't know I guess they negotiated something different Crawford's training again there's rumors about maybe he might leave his belt alone and just go up and fight Canelo it kind of accepts that deal there's also hinting of a Crawford versus Conor McGregor fight which
00:52:55
Speaker
I wouldn't really care about it. I wouldn't be mad about it. I wouldn't, I wouldn't be mad about it. I mean, mainstream Mark fans basically. like Yeah, it's, it's, it's just, but I don't know if it's going to be MMA or, or boxing. That's the thing, you know, it's Crawford has, has a wrestling background, but I don't still see him going to the UFC. Let me say Crawford's 37 years old. All right. So he's getting his big break late, which is a travesty and boxing because they let Earl spend time for that loan. Um,
00:53:24
Speaker
And he's trying to cash out, whether it be a fight with Connor, whether it be a fight with Canelo Alvarez, you know what I'm saying? He's really just trying to cash out, and he should, you know? So that division is kind of, it's in a weird state right now, because if the Earl Spence and Fondoor fight does happen, and say Fondoor wins, then you got Fondoor with two belts, is Al Haman gonna let him fight somebody from across the street? You know, he's gonna let him fight Crawford. You know, last time that happened,
00:53:53
Speaker
you know, Earl Spence got dog walked. So what do where where do we go? So me personally, if I if i was to get guess a man, Bakhram, he's on a tear right now. His last fight, he didn't look that great, but that was literally right after Ramadan. So you can't really judge fighters after Ramadan if they're a Muslim. um So you saw him this fight, he knocks out Tim Zoo, like it's nothing, like he owed him money. So for him, I think he should be fighting, i think If they want to really negotiate, actually fight Virgil Ortiz. Uh, that'd be a good fight. I think Virgil Ortiz versus him would be a good fight. Um, he's undefeated, uh, Mexican American fighter. You know, the last fight was controversial. Um, he's knocked out, knocked out everybody, but the, but, but one person that he's fought. So good up and comer. Um, so I can see him, him fighting him. Uh, I want to get the court cares Crawford. I'm saying right now, it's either going to be Conor McGregor. oh or cant are Oh, wow. Okay.
00:54:54
Speaker
So straight up, just going for the money. Nothing else involved. They're going to announce that the weekend of Mike Tyson versus Jake Paul on that Friday. They're going to announce that fight. And I say that because you've you've said many times before that you don't think that yeah Crawford stands much of a chance in that fight. So that's why I mentioned it being more of a money fight. But some people do think that he stands a chance. So we'll see if it even is announced because they've been rumors of that forever and we still haven't seen it. So shout out to Middle Earth Warrior for that question out of Indonesia. We appreciate you. This next one comes from... Yeah, I don't know. I was like, oh
00:55:32
Speaker
prototype stuff over here. This next one comes from Belgium, which you know, we're very, very high. and and big waffles I didn't mean high, my bad, not like that, but I meant we're popular in Belgium.
00:55:43
Speaker
But this comes from the waffle eater times two like man, you must eat a lot a lot of waffles Uh, we just projice was complaining about the drug testing. Can you tell us more about this controversy and about his fight next week? Um Saturday, uh, there's jack kind of next week. Yeah, uh, well his trainer we we interviewed his trainer with um, um, that's when michaela bear came on with uh, tim and uh Tim from Scott Walker and A6 Box with
Conclusion and Community Engagement
00:56:15
Speaker
a man, Papa Tran Yale. We interviewed a trainer a couple of weeks ago prior to the Michaela Mayer fight when she won the belt and she popped in on the interview, which is awesome. So I like Regis. He's from Regis program. He's from the boot. He's from New Orleans. Kind of near where my dad's from. But the thing about it, he complained about the drug testing. Okay. His last fight was against Devin Haney when Devin Haney beat him. When Devin Haney lost to Ryan Garcia,
00:56:41
Speaker
Regis made a comment about it doesn't matter. I mean, I don't, don't phrase when it's, but basically, you know, it doesn't matter what's what up Jake, uh, doesn't matter what's, uh, in the system, uh, you know, it's really the fighter. So if you're going to say that, then you're basically condoning that type of activity using PEDs to win. So if that's the case.
00:57:04
Speaker
Why are you complaining about not getting drug tested? You got drug tested six times against Devin Haney, and you have been drug tested maybe once against ah your your upcoming fight against Jack Adderall and saying, you know, I don't know what he has in his system, you know, things of that. I know you're a clean fighter, but you don't know what he has in his system. But if another fighter you just fought, fought somebody with stuff in the system, and you're saying that whatever's in the system doesn't matter, then why the hell are you even complaining? That's my only issue with that, you know.
00:57:29
Speaker
I still like Regis Probras. He's a real good fighter to me. um I thought he beat Jack Taylor overseas and hopefully he writes that wrong and fights cattle all over there um and and um gets that dub over in the UK. But um you know it's kind of one of those days where it comes to PEDs and boxing. We all know the sport is hella dirty, but you can't shame one fighter for getting mad at someone for freezing PEDs and then you get in the same situation and then you're like, what's going on? If you don't care one way, you don't care all the way. So you'll fight anybody juiced up to the gills. You know what I mean? So that's my thought on that. You know, we're just program is great fighter, but just, just don't complain one way and then to have it, want to have it another way. Okay. You are muted, sir.
00:58:14
Speaker
