Starting point is 00:00:00 pkn 345 hockey troubles taylor yeah man it's the blues are so bad i am i i may just give kyle 35 dollars now and and skip the seven games because beginning of the season i know i know i'm not gonna do that it's more fun if it's five more five at a time five at a time you send me like pictures of like oh third game one treated myself to some five guys you know 1398 dinner but uh so basically the beginning of the season kyle was like i'm taking colorado avalanche i'm like obviously i'm taking st louis blues they were both projected to be the top two teams like people were even saying like man both of these teams maybe even over vegas if not they're right there with vegas and vegas vegas has been a standard a very good team immediately the blues start going down like like someone like gave a like a monkey's paw
Starting point is 00:00:56 curse against them like getting hit with pucks falling like getting hurt off ice freak stuff like a normal high stick that would normally not be a big big deal ah detached retina that's gonna be six months stuff like that and so slowly but surely it's like it's okay the blues are still doing good this is about a month ago now it's like the blue they're they're not doing great but they're still gonna make the playoffs and then like a bunch of our third and fourth line guys started getting hurt and now it's like it's a whole team of people i i don't know half of them like it's it's people who they have like brought up from minor leagues like a guy who's like i've just kind of consigned to my life we have a guy on our team who was born in australia to give you a the only australian player to ever play in the nhl nathan walker he's
Starting point is 00:01:41 in our every night lineup now he doesn't belong there there are eight teams in the NHL, Nathan Walker. He's in our every night lineup now. He doesn't belong there. There are eight teams in the West, and you guys are fourth best. Look at the last ten. Two wins in the last ten. Horrific. True, true, true, but the way you talk about it being so catastrophic, you're not even going to get a great draft pick.
Starting point is 00:02:01 No, they never do. That's as bad as it can be though right because like there's no glimmer of hope there's no little sparkle on the corner of this failure if you if you're going if you're like i don't know 30 games below 500 or something it's like oh we're gonna get some players next year but no no no no you're not no no you're just good enough that the mediocrity will continue for a generation or more this is similar he actually just came back and it's like it was funny because like he comes back he's like where's everyone i used to play with on the team like
Starting point is 00:02:37 play with nine like he's been doing really well like scoring multiple goals doing really really good for a guy who's had like five shoulder surgeries. But Brightside, this is the situation the Blues were in a worse situation than this two years ago. And then they rebounded back. But that wasn't because of injury that they were shitty. It's because they had a bad coach two years ago. And then Bortuzzo and Sundquist got in a fistfight at practice. And then they went on a 20-game win streak. It worked great.
Starting point is 00:03:04 But so anyway the blues i am not looking forward to them getting absolutely shit rocked by colorado i'm just hoping that like the blues get a couple on the board because colorado while the blues have been like trending down like colorado looks like they're just amping up getting better better better better uh and i would prefer them win over vegas anyway you know, I like Vegas is too new. No, no wins for them. No, none of that. It seems so simple to me. Have you tried telling Bortusto that Sundquist is talking shit?
Starting point is 00:03:33 Hey, Bortuso, you got to fight Sundquist and practice again. See, that's not going to work because Sundquist is out for the rest of the season with like a broken leg. So no, no, no, no. You didn't say Sundquist started playing really well you said he got into a fight this can still happen it could yeah we wheel him out there it's like come on yeah do it hit him with his crutch yeah but uh at least i can we can all look down on the buffalo sabers which are going through they just tied i don't even know that was a team. The Buffalo Sabres, really? Terrible. Never heard of that. 18-game losing streak. 18-game losing streak ties the 0-3-0-4 Penguins
Starting point is 00:04:10 for the longest losing streak in NHL history, and they might have a chance to go for gold. Penguins can't do anything right. Confirmed. Yeah. That's right before the NHL rigged the lottery to give them Crosby and Malkin. That's my conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 00:04:23 That's going to be my next conspiracy theory, is that that whole draft was rigged to give give them Crosby and Malkin. That's my conspiracy theory. That's going to be my next conspiracy theory, is that that whole draft was rigged to give the Pens Crosby to keep them from relocating. He should have rightfully been a Philadelphia Flyer. We all know. No. And then you would like him. Probably.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Yeah. You'd be like, what are you talking? You'd be like, this Connor McDavid guy's got nothing on my man. Look at the career stats. And it it's like he's been in there the league for 13 more years so yeah that's the most fun way to do it but yeah i felt really bad for the buffalo sabers they were leading three to nothing over the philadelphia flyers last night and i saw a bunch of flyers fans being like of fucking course it's the flyers who throw the game away flyers score three tie it up and then win in
Starting point is 00:05:05 overtime and you can hear the buffalo sabers announcer who's like a genuine hard you may not know this kyle the buffalo sabers market they haven't made the playoffs in 11 years and they have some of the most consistently high hockey rankings they love the nhl in buffalo it can be tampa bay versus colorado in the stanley cup and Buffalo is one of the highest markets. And so this guy, Philly's going in on a breakaway in the overtime, and he scores, and the guy's like, coming in on the Buffalo goalie, scores. Well, you know, that's the way the great game goes. Buffalo's pretty close to Canada, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:05:44 Yeah. Is it kind of like close to Niagara and all that? Like way up there? Yeah, yeah, north of Toronto Yeah, I guess All I know about Buffalo, obviously, is the hot wings And that their football team is just a perennial disgrace Like it's almost a joke
Starting point is 00:06:03 I think they're good this year They were good this year there's a stat going right now that since february 1st 2020 the buffalo bills have won 15 games and the buffalo sabers have won 14 the buffalo bills won 15 out of 16 the buffalo sabers have won 14 out of like 61 or something pretty rough pretty rough when you lose you know when you're not winning as much as the football team and that's special i kind of like that when you see that in sports like i wonder what it would be like to be a fan of a team that is just that perennial dog that's so bad that wins you know 20 of their games or whatever it is like man that's got to be i don't understand that kind
Starting point is 00:06:42 of fandom like like i i joke around a lot about being a bandwagon fan, but in reality, most of the teams that I'm actually a fan of are my local teams, like the Braves and the Georgia Bulldogs and stuff. But man, if the Bulldogs had... If they won four games a year, for years in a row, if they did one year, you'd be mad. You'd be like, oh, we're going to get them next year.
Starting point is 00:07:08 We're going to recruit. We've got a new offensive coordinator, a new head coach, new this, new that. New stadium too. We're starting fresh. You know, like you could get behind something. But after like generations. Yeah, they're like cursed. Like this is – watch this little – it's a very short gif.
Starting point is 00:07:24 His name is Taylor Hall. They call it Taylor Fall. He's on a breakaway. generations yeah they're like cursed like this is watch this little it's a very short gif his name's taylor hall they call it taylor fall he's on a breakaway he first of all he signed with the buffalo sabers going i'm gonna sign a one-year year deal i'm gonna bet on myself it's going terribly he's on a breakaway and he just falls oh and then just gives up he's like i hate this is only like 13 losses into this streak or something. Top comment. He looks so sad. Yeah, he does. He's known to be a player with a curse.
Starting point is 00:07:52 If you have Taylor Hall on your team, you're going to get a first-round draft pick the next year. Apparently, that works pretty well. This guy goes, I'd be sad, too, if I played for Buffalo. I like it when sports have scores that don't fit like it if i told you that atlanta won 17 to 3 you'd be like oh nice defense you know good game for the falcons no no no it was the braves like oh yeah 17 to 3 in a baseball game that that always gets me yeah we had a game like that last year i don't remember remember who it was, but I think the Braves scored maybe 21 or something like that.
Starting point is 00:08:26 It was one of those. It was like 21-4 or something like that. I don't even remember anymore. Opening day is, I think, the 4th. Are they shaping up to be good this year, do you think? This year, it's going to be Braves and Dodgers again in the NL. It's looking like it could
Starting point is 00:08:42 be just a complete repeat of last year. Obviously, Dodgers are West coast and we're east coast um i haven't looked at the uh american league too much but my guess like completely uneducated guess would be that it's it's the teams you know you know the the yankees are they're good whenever they want to be and the red socks seem to be good whenever they want to be and if neither of them want to be good then someone else is going to step up but but yeah this year my prognostication is Braves Dodgers again and hopefully this year we close it out I didn't even is this oh spring training good god they play a lot of games in spring training yeah yeah just ignore spring training
Starting point is 00:09:22 that's just that's really just like advanced stretching. Oh, this is like preseason where it's like, oh, man, Kansas City Royals looking really good. And it's like, well, that may be true, John, but every team's playing minor league guys. Everybody else is at home in their mansions. The people who are playing are playing for specific reasons. Nobody's getting out there and like throwing their arm out or risking a hamstring sprain unless it's like oh yeah he's recovering from this or that yeah he really needs to get some reps in because of x y and z like it's they're going through the motions what about towards the end they don't start ramping it up you know yeah they'll start ramping it up um and part of it is maybe to like develop a lineup um but like it's it was announced like a week ago
Starting point is 00:10:03 who the starting pitcher on opening day was going to be late. Like they get that stuff kind of out of the way fairly early. And, and, you know, injuries are a big deal in every sport, I guess, but more so I think obviously in football, you know, your, your, your quarterback gets injured. It's like, well, the season is over and baseball, you lose a starting pitcher. It's not quite as bad, but it's like, fuck. Because you've got three good ones most of the time. Maybe four and then some other guys who occasionally slip in there. But if you lose one of your good ones, it's a real problem early in the year.
Starting point is 00:10:39 But yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I'm getting my, I told you guys earlier, I'm getting my vaccine tomorrow. So one month from then, I'll have my second it. I'm getting my, um, I told you guys earlier, I'm getting my vaccine tomorrow. So one month from then I'll have my second shot. Moderna then. Um, shit. I don't know. The one that's four weeks.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Like I was asking, I was like, Hey, Moderna or Pfizer. And, uh, what he was like, nah, either one.
Starting point is 00:10:59 And I'm like, I like, I click, I'm like, yep, that one. And she just goes, but don't get that.
Starting point is 00:11:03 And I'm like, well, shit. Like, cause one of them is a three week gap and one of them is a four week gap. Yeah. What he was like, yep, that one. She just goes, but don't get that. I'm like, well, shit. One of them is a three-week gap and one of them is a four-week gap. Yeah, Woody was like, it's the same shit. I was like, that was also my understanding. I don't know. I didn't realize that the spread was different,
Starting point is 00:11:15 but the effectiveness is about the same. It was 95%, 196%. Say you'll be out of town and you got to get it early. Boom. I don't care. I'll wait another week. The main thing is I'm hoping I can go to some Braves games.
Starting point is 00:11:31 I really want to go to some Braves games. You know. Baseball games. There's so many of them. What's that? There's so many baseball games and the teams travel and just like, I don't know. It seems like even more than other sports baseball is going to be hard to organize what do you mean like with the like the way the
Starting point is 00:11:50 nhl did is like nobody plays outside of like an eight team conference like mlb like i feel like they're they're bouncing around a lot in baseball how's that gonna work yeah um i don't know if there will be a special concern. You know, last year they canceled a lot of games. That was the solution. A lot of the early games were canceled. I don't remember how long the season ended up being, but a half of what it normally is or something.
Starting point is 00:12:17 I don't know what the plans are this year, but without some degree of major travel, it's hard to even work your division because the national league east has philadelphia in it um washington in it uh the braves the marlins um so you know it's there's a lot of traveling to be done there it's not just you can't just go to florida back and forth and play you got to go all the way up and down the east coast yeah yeah i want to i don't know i want to catch some home games though
Starting point is 00:12:50 i've gone before and gotten like the best seats available like right behind home plate and been just super underwhelmed like fuck do we do we at least get like free food because like the people in front of me are literally the players' families. I've got the seat behind the players' families. And you keep seeing them going down some steps to fucking craft services. Yeah, and they got free food. They're coming back with shrimp cocktails and shit. And martini glasses.
Starting point is 00:13:19 And I'm like, do we get any of that? Because I paid a lot for these tickets. No, no, no. You don't you don't try anything like oh but pooh holes remember you're my godfather you know you were at my baptism uh you know pablo or something just making something up no no i think i think you get tackled or or worse um so i i just want to get i just want to go. The stadium is really nice. I'll probably get some mediocre tickets or something like that and bring some fucking binoculars.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Because it's really just more about being there. Because like I've always said, there's very few sports that are actually worth going to. And baseball is not one of them. I just want to go to like, I'm tired of being inside. I want to go do some shit. But like normally, I wouldn't even bother going to a fucking Braves game because it doesn't matter where you sit. I guess I'll probably get on the first baseline
Starting point is 00:14:10 because they're running past all the time. It sounds hot, though. You're at a baseball game in Atlanta. They play in the summer. It's hot. It's hot and sunny. Yeah, it's hot and sunny. Yeah, but you can cool yourself down with $20.
Starting point is 00:14:24 No, wait, I forget. Atlanta, or wait, no. Yeah, it is Atlanta, the Braves that have that fair stuff, right? Yeah, they got the fair pricing thing. I think that that's at the football stadium, though. Oh, never mind. Where they've got the crazy good prices. It's been a few years since I've been to a Braves game.
Starting point is 00:14:42 I honestly don't remember how affordable or not affordable the snacks were I think I think we got like a couple hot dogs and a couple cokes or something like like but um at the football stadium I think is where like hot dogs are like two dollars and cokes are a dollar like it's like super super reasonable like everything's well priced will you go to a Falcons game this year and no interest whatsoever yeah i i don't know i don't know maybe yeah maybe i i'd like i'm gonna go do a lot of things but um definitely get that fucking vaccine under my belt i'm so tired of being cooped up i want to go do some shit that's what that was my motivation and you know like i want to do stuff i want to get out i want to have i want to have any uh effects from the vaccine behind me before my trip um i want to go to that paramotor flying i just want to be oh going are there any ufc events planned for atlanta i thought you guys both agreed
Starting point is 00:15:37 you never wanted to physically go to a ufc again we'll see this is the covet effect this is the covet effect it's like fool yourself you guys have said so many times that it was not worth it and i still say it's not worth much more and and part of it's why it wasn't worth it is because woody and i drove up the entire east coast of the united fucking states got in at three in the morning slept for a few hours really accomplished nothing next the next day other than like a little little jaunt through a park and around some sidewalks paid several hundred dollars per seat saw dana white he was about 10 feet away so that was honestly the highlight of the entire fucking trip his big bald head in front of us and then literally looked at a jumbotron to like watch the fight because
Starting point is 00:16:22 like everything is obscured by a fence and then went fucking home and got lost in delaware i wonder if there's a sweet spot in ufc tickets right like where we were we were like the closest seats that weren't in the closed area so like on octagon is much smaller than a hockey rink so they put seats on the area that like would have been a hockey rink. And we weren't there. We were probably in the very best normal seats. And from there, like every like you had full cage obstruction. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:57 You weren't really elevated to see what's happening. It was almost like the worst place to be. Like you can't stand up to see it either like you have to remain seating I don't think it would have helped it wouldn't have helped like binoculars would have helped and don't misunderstand it wasn't that far away
Starting point is 00:17:16 like the fence is such it's so obscuring it's a television sport it's a television sport all sports are television sports except for hockey and if you're a fucking celebrity, boxing. There's like four cameramen hanging over the cage with great views. If you're in the audience, you have a great view of the cameraman. And that's not what I came for.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Like soccer, for example. So you can see right through. Plexig cage yeah i've considered that it would get dirty and everything but make it a priority you know like you could do that and between every round have uh girls in bikinis just like spick and span that thing to make it fuck yeah use their use their asses to clean it like like the hockey girls now we're making money. Dude, you know someone gets slammed into that motherfucker. It shatters and slices somebody's fucking jugular or something.
Starting point is 00:18:12 I like the way you're thinking. Yes, we need glass, not plexiglass. Since we're on the topic, do you want to cover these? The glass. Unbelievably. They're approaching the pain of glass you see both fighters disengaged like whoa the glass
Starting point is 00:18:30 you know joe i'm sorry man i'm so sorry now all the tactics revolve around the glass this guy's not very good striking or wrestling, but goddamn he pushes people into the glass. Our champion. He's never thrown a punch, but he's so fast side to side. He just pulls me past him into the glass. I would fight him again if I wasn't blinded from his pain of glass attack. You know, I thought that I was fucked at the very end, and then I decided to throw him through a pane of glass. And I was about to say, you know, I still remain champion.
Starting point is 00:19:13 It's like, incredible. That's incredible. Joe Rogan just, oh, as you see, bleeding out on the side of the... Man, Ronda Rousey could throw me through a pane of glass so hard. Do you want to cover the UFC talk or do you want to save it for PKA? Nah, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Oh, man. So I think I called all the fights that I was asked about. I don't know if it was on the show or if it was in our hangout over the last Tuesday, but I did. You and I both, asked about um we i don't know if it was on the show or if it was in our hangout over the uh last tuesday um but i did you and i both we picked in ghanu um to beat stipe and frankly i didn't think it was that big of a reach like like i just felt like he's had a fucking year he's so goddamn scary and stipe got a year older and and like I got a lot of respect for Stipe,
Starting point is 00:20:07 but goddamn, Ngannou is just the most terrifying man in the world. So I just felt like it was a good bet. And then I saw like, when it was, you know, infographic, there's Twitter plugs that come up in the bottom left part of your screen. And they were like, some buffoon bets $9,000 on Francis Ngannou to win it all. If Ngannou wins, he'll take home a cool $19,500. And I'm just like, fuck, is it too late to place a bet? Like, I'll slap $1,000 on Ngannou if those are the actual odds. Like, I had no idea. Like, I'm really confident that Ngannou has this.
Starting point is 00:20:39 And sure enough, like, from the opening three seconds. No, no, forget that. From the moment you saw Nganou and his current physique, I was just like, dear God. It was like one of those scenes in a Mad Max movie, like Thunderdome, when the fucking Master Blaster comes out and he's so big that he's got a midget attached to his back to help control him. He's huge and muscular. And oftentimes when a guy weighs 260, he's carrying a little fat, right? He has visible abs.
Starting point is 00:21:19 He's not shredded to, like, you know, deltoid striations or anything. Yeah, he's probably 12 body fat 13 maybe but visible abs and he's a tank 263 i think was the official way okay yeah he's huge i'm watching two pounds below the maximum yeah just so we're clear you can't fight all the heavyweights even though the division goes from 205 to 265 you have to be within 40 pounds if if he were to fight like like if john jones wasn't gaining weight he'd be too small to get in the octagon with inganu and gano is a beast and but he lost to stipe somehow last time a year ago yeah yeah i'm sorry i should have been more clear and uh it always kind of baffled me. How'd that happen?
Starting point is 00:22:05 Stipe? Why is Stipe the best champion that the heavyweight division has ever had in any organization? It blows my mind. He is a sweet, nice guy. He is a good husband, a good father. He's the multi-millionaire you would expect 2021's Mike Tyson to be. And he still works as a fireman. he's not even that high ranking as a fireman when he came back with the championship belt again like reclaiming it from daniel cormier
Starting point is 00:22:32 they made him clean the toilets and they made fun of him on instagram for it like he's such he's a multi-millionaire he doesn't have to do this but he's like dude there's covid like the world needs me right now. I'm going to be responding to cases and shit. Oh, he wasn't doing this before. No, no, no. He was. He's always been a fireman.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Always done it. And he's never quit his job. That's pretty cool. He's just a public servant, sweet, nice guy. He's got major corporate sponsors. He's in those, I don't remember if it's Stella Artois or Modelo or which beer company it is that does UFC stuff. Either one.
Starting point is 00:23:10 It's like when the call comes down the line, Stipe Miocic always answers the phone. It's just like with clips of him. I always drink six Stella Artois before I fight.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Before I respond to an EMT call. They're always clear to make them cheering with the Modelo after the fight or after they put out the fire or whatever. But I would do it the complete opposite way. Steve Amiosh is so fucking good. He pounds 18 Stella Artois before he even steps in the ring. whatever but i i would do it the complete opposite way steve amy oches is so fucking good he pounds 18 stella artois before he even steps in the ring you think that's a water bottle in the corner no he's doing keg stands of stella to power him into round three swaying by a door with an axe like get back i'm coming in as the champion he just it's i don't know why he was so good it's kind of neat that he was he is
Starting point is 00:24:10 big he's he's like he's uh six three or six four um you know 236 or something i thought he was more but i don't have the number off the top of my head um Um, he's durable. Um, he's got very clean boxing and he's got really strong wrestling and he knows when to do which, and the first fight he out wrestled in Gano, um, tired him out and then caught him with a hook. And that was game over this time. Um, I don't know enough about wrestling to, I know enough about wrestling to recognize good wrestling but I have no idea when it's mediocre wrestling if that makes sense I can tell the difference between really good and really bad
Starting point is 00:24:52 but in between I'm like well I don't know it seems like he knows what he's doing I don't know it's not something I grew up with or have any experience in but I saw Chael saying that that his wrestling was bad. Something about, oh, he went to the left instead of the right here.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Like, everybody knows you go to the left. Your body doesn't even want to go to the right or whatever he did. And I'm just like, you say so, Chael. Like, I don't know what I'm even fucking looking at, but there was that one takedown attempt that he had on Ngannou. Chael felt that it was really bad. And then, and Ngannou stuffed it very well. It was clear that he'd been training that a ton. Ngannou had his mouth open in round one. He was tiring out, but literally in round two, I was watching with a group of guys in
Starting point is 00:25:40 the discord and I said, it's over. Ngannou gano was gonna catch him he's just throwing with such lethality every time everything he throws looks like a kill shot like like it's everything he throws it's like a kill shot and gano's gonna catch him and i swear to god it was five seconds later when he caught him and it was just like yep here we go and it's just to to miocic is uh oh that's a mouthful miocic's credit he weathered that storm for longer than just about any human on the planet could have but eventually he was laying there unconscious and he fell rather awkwardly his foot almost curled under him in a in a bad kind of way but yeah i was worried he was hurt sometimes fighters when they go down,
Starting point is 00:26:26 they land awkwardly on their knees and bend them in the wrong way. I haven't heard that he has any knee problems. Dude, Miocic is very cool. He's got more title defenses than any other UFC champion has ever had. I don't know why he beat Ngannou the first time, and I don't see him beating him anymore.
Starting point is 00:26:47 We'll get another chance at it, right? Well, see, normally the answer would be yes, but the UFC is more about business than anything, and it seems like the momentum right now is behind Jon Jones versus Ngannou, and the way I know that's completely true is because dana white is trying to downplay that and that's a clear sign that that he is that he has to negotiate now to me it's like it's like when i see dana going like so john jones immediately tweets
Starting point is 00:27:18 show me the money yeah and and uh and and and dana white responds with that's the sort of thing someone who doesn't want to fight says. Yeah, and Curtis Blade is the clear challenger for the next fight. Or Hot Balls. What's his name? Oh, do I have the wrong guy? Derek Lewis. Derek Lewis is Hot Balls. Negotiating on Twitter basically being like, you're not even interested. Nobody wants to see that. that we're gonna do this dana's halfway right you know if they offered
Starting point is 00:27:48 me a shot to fight john jones i would name some price that made it worth my while oh yeah we'll all fight john jones yeah like if he's if i was like 15 million okay 15 million says two things. I am absolutely scared of Jon Jones. But for $15 million, I will overcome that. That is one way that fighters dodge other fighters. Yeah, I want to fight that guy. Just pay me crazy amounts. And that makes it worth their while. But in Jon's case, this is the kind of fight that you would pay above the established contract for.
Starting point is 00:28:27 You know, John Jones has a contract. He earns, I don't know what it is, half a million every fight. But, you know, when the right fight comes along, John says, I want three million for this time. And even though he has a contract, they get it. So that's, I think, where we are. Yeah, yeah. I think it's a little bit of both. I don't think John's afraid because I don't think john's afraid of any human being but um i think john definitely recognizes
Starting point is 00:28:49 that what happened um over the weekend was a big deal in the world of ufc and in ghanu's uh star has risen because that was impressive um i think he wants something like that conor mcgregor money right i um i heard he's getting $5 million a fight, which isn't peanuts. This is Jon Jones. But 10 seems more fair, doesn't it, for what's going to be like a heavyweight championship, him moving up in the belt, this whole year-long thing of him cultivating mass and getting so big and then taking on the heavyweight champion and if he
Starting point is 00:29:27 was fighting me uh stipe i'm not gonna bother with his croatian last fucking name anymore he's fighting stipe i wouldn't be nearly as excited or like but when i when i just think about john jones fighting in gano really when i think about anyone fighting in Gano, I get a little feeling in my chest of concern about how violently this could end. Yeah. If I see someone fighting in Gano, it's a lot like I see someone trying to jump the Grand Canyon on a motorcycle. Or riding a bull. It's just like, all right, so look, I recognize that you've trained for this, but I'm still concerned. No one should be doing this. So to this, but I'm still concerned. You know,
Starting point is 00:30:06 they're like, no one should be doing this. So to me, if I'm Dana White, the answer is pretty straightforward, right? Like whatever kind of a profit sharing Connor might get extended John. And that way we're also extending onto John, the kind of promotion that Connor McGregor gets.
Starting point is 00:30:23 If you think you deserve Connor McGregor money, promotion that Conor McGregor gets. If you think you deserve Conor McGregor money, then go pull Conor McGregor numbers. We're giving you the dance partner in which you can make that happen. Go. Go. Go out there. Conor McGregor flew around the world and promoted that Aldo fight for like 18 months. That was a big deal. He got up there.
Starting point is 00:30:41 He had prepared speeches. He tore his thing. If this were the olden days, I would be coming to Brazil, conquering it on horseback or whatever the fuck he said, right? Ride it to your favela on horseback. Let Jon Jones come up with his own lines. Let Jon Jones come up with his own promotion. And if he is as successful as Conor McGregor, then he will be as successful as Conor McGregor, right? So if I'm Dana, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:31:05 yeah, man, you get 4%. That's the job I want. I want a job writing the mean shit for fighters to say to one another. I want Jon Jones to tell... They should hire you. I want Jon Jones to tell Ngannou that when he's through with him, he's going to be shoveling salt in Africa again.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I like it. I like it. Jon should go that hard. I saw, I forget who it was. Someone was saying they respect their opponent and they want whoever's next and this and that. And I'm like, no,
Starting point is 00:31:34 no, that's not what jail would do. Say this guy absolutely sucks. I can't believe he belongs in a ring with me and I'm going to prove that he doesn't like what, what are you afraid of? Is he going to hit you harder? You're already getting his best effort.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Go talk shit. Yeah, as if he's like, I wasn't sure, but now I'm mad. Honestly, that might be the way to beat Ngannou. If you could actually hurt Ngannou's feelings and make him furious at you, because he seems like a guy who goes into the fight with no emotion, more determination.
Starting point is 00:32:04 That's his Achilles heel, his feelings. I don't know if the man has an Achilles heel, other than his actual heel, and you might need to shoot it with an arrow like an actual Achilles. The man is fucking terrifying. I love that quote from Dana White, where they measure the punching power on one of those fancy machines, and he's like,
Starting point is 00:32:22 when Francis Ngannou punches with the same power as a Buick LeSabre traveling 35 miles per hour. And like, that's an accurate stat. It can't be. I don't understand where that comes from. It's just like the energy displacement or something. But you know that's not right. It actually wasn't a Buick LeSabre, but it was a car.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I think it was a Ford Escort. Even a Ford Escort going at five miles an hour has so much energy in it. Oh, yeah. Like a horse isn't going to beat that. Let me see if I can find the exact thing. Like a Francis. It has to be. Are you saying he could stop a.
Starting point is 00:33:01 No, no, no, no. It's the amount of force. The impact of his punch is equal to the impact of a car crash and i'm just like not not uh like it can't be true like he hits someone they just like if francis nanganu hit me in the shoulder as hard as he could that would be a problem but i would be okay yeah if a ford escort hit me in the shoulder and like i'm against a wall in this situation and squeezed me even at five miles an hour i could die yeah you're likely to die i got it okay he's not gonna if he hit you in the shoulder
Starting point is 00:33:37 it wouldn't be enough to like throw you across a highway i have the stat and i understand it more thoroughly now. So I'm just going to read the whole paragraph. So many, many people still remember that in Ghana has the world record for the hardest punch ever measured. The Cameroonian French fighter recorded a punch of 1000 or 129,000, 161 units,
Starting point is 00:34:02 breaking the record previously held by kickboxer Tyrone Spong. His speed power also hits 51,064 foot-pounds per second, which is equal to the horsepower of a normally-sized family car. UFC's head honcho has since been in complete awe of Nogano's raw power with regards to his punches. He says, quote, Francis is a guy who has the world record for the most powerful punch. His punches are equivalent to 96 horsepower.
Starting point is 00:34:31 That's equal to getting hit by a Ford Escort. And it's more powerful than a 12-pound sledgehammer from full force overhead. Definitely not. I'll take a punch from him over a sledgehammer any day i think both might kill you i believe that i as someone who's barely operated a sledgehammer can hit a thing on the ground harder than nganu can punch so i think the difference is that nganu's swinging a fist versus a piece of steel so that you discount that like like like it's the energy that's being displaced by either object
Starting point is 00:35:10 if if you put if you put a if you put a boxing glove on the on the sledgehammer then i think it's more comparable to his punch right i hear what you're saying you're talking about the give and the thing i'm hitting with yeah and the cushion of a fist with bone and flesh versus a big chunk of steel on a goddamn handle. Look, I'm not retarded. I see the difference as well. I know that a sledgehammer will make a human head explode.
Starting point is 00:35:36 But if it's not about the item itself that they're swinging, couldn't they have just as easily phrased this like it's like a furiously fast swing in a pillow fight. Because if the item has nothing to do with what we're equivocating, you know what I mean? Well, it's about the amount of energy that's being displaced,
Starting point is 00:35:53 and that's something that I don't have a lot of knowledge outside of ballistics. I have no knowledge even in that. He's got you there, Kyle. With various bullets. And it's that old uh you know um uh the mass of the object times the speed of the object equation and and i think that's how they're deriving these ridiculous numbers so to compare it to a sledgehammer is a little bit of a falsehood because obviously sledgehammers break concrete walls down and you know a human head would literally explode so i'm bad at
Starting point is 00:36:27 physics and i think what they're proving is that i could be worse i could be there that's fair that's fair but uh the finest physics minds that the ufc forums have but yeah i'm uh i'm afraid of that man in a way that i'm not afraid of like the average like derrick lewis is a scary man but for whatever reason like i'm like all right i'm gonna fight derrick lewis fuck he's gonna hit me so hard this is gonna really really hurt and i'm gonna wake up in a hospital wait i've got to fight Nganou. Please no. Can't I just fight Derek Lewis?
Starting point is 00:37:09 I'll fight Derek Lewis twice. How about that? We'll do a rubber match. As much as I respect Miocic, as much as I like that he was the best, the most successful UFC heavyweight that's ever fought, it's fun to have Nganou as the champ. It's fun to have the boss character at the end of Mike Tyson's punch out carrying that belt right now. Anyone who goes in there as challenger, it's like,
Starting point is 00:37:31 what are you going to do? How are you going to solve? Like, good luck. It's like, he's like Nunez. He's just, you know,
Starting point is 00:37:39 whoever goes in there with him is in a real, has a real problem on their hands. He is terrifying. I am so afraid of that man. Um, and the thing about him is real soft spoken um polite friendly oh that's who it was that's that remember i was saying just a minute ago they were interviewing him he's like john jones is a great champion it would be an honor to fight fight Jon Jones. If he were to get in there, like, I think I can win this,
Starting point is 00:38:07 but, you know, this would be a really cool thing. I would be thrilled for it to happen. No, Ngannou. You say Jon Jones sucks. Jon Jones is a little person's champion. I am a heavyweight champion. If Jon Jones steps into the Octagon, he's going to find out why the big boys are king of the jungle.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Bring your fucking skinny ass in here. I got some fighting to do. Say that, Inganu, and I will be so excited. They don't understand the game. Is he really bad at playing himself up, Inganu? Like he's just modest and kind. A lot of fighters are bad at playing themselves up. Sounds like Jocic and Inganu, based on what you guys have said,
Starting point is 00:38:47 are very good fighters, but they need a hype man. They've had somebody hanging out with them, giving them a, now say this, now say this. I'm a feature-ass skinny guy. It's just lifetime of respect in their martial arts training that's ruined their ability to talk shit on a microphone. So much bowing and cleaning of mats.
Starting point is 00:39:10 That's why Conor McGregor is so entertaining. He has no respect traditionally. He has no respect for these people. Same thing. I got no respect for you either. They'll fucking talk mad shit.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Are they out? It's complicated. If you give those guys a million dollars, they think, well, I won't have to work for two years now. Or more. They grew up so poor. They just get a big payday and then they just coast
Starting point is 00:39:42 until it's like, uh-oh, the coffers are running dry. Hey, Dana, fuck you, bitch bitch yeah yeah that's what happens i think as long as you're 31 right you know you're 31 you can't do this forever and you have to live 40 more years you need to accumulate some money in the next five that that thought never crosses their mind nope as long as nate has enough money for wife beaters and weed he is just fucking solid like like i don't think he cares where he lives what he drives it seems like a monk of sorts i like like he's clear he's cutting his own fucking hair like like the man doesn't even have time to like we can't talk shit over here in the woodworth house
Starting point is 00:40:21 like like he hasn't bothered to get that speech impediment fixed even though he's in a in a in a a job place where like being able to talk a little smack is kind of good sometimes like like him versus connor in like the talking uh game was you felt bad for him after a while like like like that that thing where they're on um him after a while like like like that that thing where they're on um cnbc that's what i don't know yeah yeah yeah the money is something like that yeah yeah it's like connor nate or um yeah nate and then this female interviewer and and she's like asking questions and i don't remember the exact way it went down but she asked him uh she asked she asked uh diaz a question about numbers or something like that and and connor's like he can only count to five
Starting point is 00:41:10 like connor just keeps interjecting every time that like he's trying to ask him a question he's like what are all these questions about contracts and what is this like a money channel you're yes yes did he say that what is this the money channel the tickers at the bottom the money channel and in his head he's like zing that's totally what happened
Starting point is 00:41:36 he looked a fool one thing that frustrates me about Nate and his brother Nick is they have this weird code of honor that they violate personally constantly they hate it when people make excuses but they give excuses all the time they hate it when people do x but they'll do x all the time they will say a contradictory thing in the very same sentence and believe it on both sides and it's like you're just so full of shit and it's fair it's a weird code yeah it's it's hypocrisy uh i like uh i like two different kinds
Starting point is 00:42:13 of fighters i like flashy fighters um who have like you know crazy hand speed and talk a lot of smack um but but are really exciting to watch you know guys Sean O'Malley a lot. I like... Oh, what's his fucking name? Who always had the cancer kid with him. Was that Poirier who had the cancer kid with him? Uh-uh, uh-uh. It's the 145-pound guy, or 135-pound. Yeah, it's 135.
Starting point is 00:42:38 It's super fast hands, and he always had that cancer kid with him. Oh, yeah. He hated Conor, and he has tattoos all over him. He fought TJ, and they had that cancer. Oh, yeah. He hated Connor and he has tattoos all over him. He fought TJ and they had that crazy rivalry. Garbrandt. Cody Garbrandt. Yeah, I like Cody Garbrandt.
Starting point is 00:42:53 I like guys like O'Malley. O'Malley's fight was good. I really enjoyed O'Malley's fight. And I like people that talk a lot of shit. I like them to come out there and entertain me. Because they fight what 25 minutes every six to eight months right you gotta fill the rest of that time up with something if i'm gonna be a fan of you you know you can be a fan of a baseball player he's going out three days a week and fucking swinging a bat so let's say you're a ufc
Starting point is 00:43:22 fighter right you're good would you color your hair i'd come up with a gimmick of some kind yeah you'd want to come up with some kind of a gimmick it's not a lot of choices in an octagon you can't go like i wouldn't be super disingenuous about it like if like coloring my hair isn't my thing then then that's kind of silly to do because that's gonna like if braiding your hair isn't your thing, it's a silly thing to do. There's not too many ways to stand out. Like, for example, Sean O'Malley has that facial hair. That's clearly not his thing. He should shave that shit off.
Starting point is 00:43:51 That's not a good look for him. He's just an ugly motherfucker anyway. He looks like Post Malone's like skinny little brother or something like that. He is one of the ugliest UFC fighters in the world. But he's really fun to watch, so I'm a fan of him. Let's go to the mic. Yeah uh he's really fun to watch so i'm a fan of him go to the mic and what's his yeah he's going on the mic and um um what's the um the guy who has the africa tattoo on him that had the gyno uh gyno a little bit israeli adesanya israel yeah israel adesanya
Starting point is 00:44:18 like like that guy knows how to talk he's fun and he's got all sorts of gimmicks he comes out with all that fucking naruto shit and all that anime shit he acts like he's 19 right he'll be like fighting other people on the internet he's like you can't hang with me my generation you know like i i'm all into anime and video games it's like you were 37 i don't know he's old though oh yeah the last fucking style bender the man the man knows how to have he's got a gimmick he's 31 but yeah it's just like he acts like he's 19 years old like my generation was of the internet i'm the instagram gen you're 31 dude yeah yeah he's not young me spryg yeah me at 30 yeah are you 30 yet not yet and like very soon very soon yep i mean maybe he was that was his mo like six years ago and he just doesn't know how to get away from it is that probably? I could be one dude. I wish I could talk to him cause I want to know what he thinks of his career.
Starting point is 00:45:28 So here's his career in a nutshell. He got offered a contract to join the UFC a while ago, call it nine years ago, eight years ago. And they didn't offer him very much money. He wasn't a super well-known fighter and he's like, no, I want more money than that.
Starting point is 00:45:42 So he kept fighting outside the UFC. Very successful. Cool. When he kept fighting outside the UFC. Very successful. Cool. When he finally comes into the UFC, he gets a better contract than he would have had he taken the first one. And he lights up the UFC. He made it to the title run in a straight line. Like four fights in, he gets a shot at the interim belt and wins. And then he gets a shot at unifying the belt and wins.
Starting point is 00:46:05 There is almost no room for improvement in how well his UFC career could have gone, but he didn't start it until he was like 28. And I wonder, did you take the perfect course? He is not going to likely beat Anderson Silva like record for defenses because he would have to be like really good to be at 38 years old or something insane like that you know could the 24 25 year old version of him have gone to the ufc and done well or maybe he'd get a couple losses and never have that shine again maybe it would like would you re-roll this die if you could i wonder i don't think you would um i bet he made good money in k1 or wherever the fuck he was doing that kickboxing shit
Starting point is 00:46:51 um i bet he was doing fine over there obviously not ufc money well i don't know if it's obvious or not i really don't know what they get paid is that um i don't know where he fought i know he was a kickboxer because i've seen some of his kickboxing bouts, I think they call them, fights, whatever they call them, because he lost there. He's never lost in mixed martial arts. And I don't know. I don't like him personally.
Starting point is 00:47:15 I really don't. Who just beat him at 205? Oh, obviously. Yeah, yeah. He went up a weight class and lost to Usman, was it? No, that'd be down. Right at 170. Who the fuck did he fight?
Starting point is 00:47:34 Oh, Jan Blakovic or something close to that. Yeah, the most forgettable motherfucker ever. I can't keep up with these fucking Euro guys' names. Yeah, he lost there. You're not counting it. I can see that. I wouldn't keep up with these fucking Euro guys' names. Yeah, he lost there. You're not counting it. I can see that. I wouldn't count that. It's like, yeah, if he fights Ngannou, he'll lose two in a row.
Starting point is 00:47:52 And if he fights Jon Jones, honestly, he probably loses three in a row. And what, are we going to cut him if he loses one more? No. Because he's fighting bigger guys. He's fighting bigger guys. And he also, I heard a lion mauled him pretty bad the other day. He didn't even get any licks in. Oh, and then my favorite part of the night was Tyron Woodley getting fucking retired.
Starting point is 00:48:13 His fucking boring, bullshit, race-baiting ass. He's retiring? Is that just a Kyle thing? Oh, that's just a Kyle thing. They were like, Dana, so Tyron, four losses in a row. What did you think? He's like, well, I thought this was one of his better fights. You think he's going to continue with you guys?
Starting point is 00:48:31 Is he going to have another fight in him? Well, let's see. How old is he? 38, 39? He's lost four in a row? What do you think? It's like, yeah. I think Tyron just won. He won a Bellator contract. You're goddamn right he did. Or a bare-knuckle boxing contract.
Starting point is 00:48:48 He may have been the one who's rumored to box De La Hoya or something like that, which would be, take that, Tyrone. Take that and fucking run. Fight all the old 50-year-old fighters you fucking can with pillow pants on your hands and get the fuck away from these killers you lazy boring piece of shit i hate him with a fury and a passion i will say this though he came out like i've never seen him come out before in this fight it was clear that somebody's
Starting point is 00:49:17 been in his ear for like the since his last fight look let's watch a little tape. I call this montage boring tyrant. It's your entire career. Play. You dance around for two rounds measuring your opponent, even though your primary skill point is your incredibly strong wrestling because that's what's going to open up the hands. Well, you got away from that after you became the champion of the world, and you've lost four in a row since. How about this time you fucking rush your opponent
Starting point is 00:49:48 and grab them and out-wrestle them? You're an incredible physical specimen. You look like you squat 700 fucking pounds. Your ass looks like it's made of steel. His thighs are bigger around than my goddamn waist. His ass is a dump truck and a half. And this guy's out there dancing with people measuring for like two rounds getting picked apart it's like he hates being hit so he just plays super defensive and and he's lost something like coming into this fight maybe
Starting point is 00:50:19 12 rounds in a row nine rounds in a row something very long and uh it's it's just like dude you can't just be all defense for entire fights and lose decisions super lopsided so he went in there and tried to win as opposed to just trying not to lose not to get hit not to get hurt and uh you know had his moments he had his moments it was if he'd been doing that every fight for the last four he wouldn't be oh and four um it just so happened that he got caught he ended up in a nasty choke and like while we were watching the fight i was the guy he was fighting i think he's ranked 10th in the world at that weight class something like that and tyron was seven something along those lines plus or minus one or two and uh his opponent what i like didn't know how to capitalize on what was clearly a discombobulated tyron woodley like we're watching the fight like i said in a big group
Starting point is 00:51:19 together and uh i i usually try to stay quiet i you know but i i don't really like it when somebody's screaming and shouting and stuff. So I usually try to stay quiet. I'm not your Joe Rogan here. I'm not going to be doing commentary. You're not perfectly synced either. So if you go, oh, and I haven't seen it yet, it's a bit of a spoiler. Oh, ours is because we – ours is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:38 Yeah, we get it all synced up. You got a system. Yeah. And so Tyron's head isn't even on straight anymore and that's not like a figure of speech his head is he's like he's bambi on ice like like he can't hold his head up straight it's literally twisted to the side and he doesn't know that that's how fucked up he is and i'm screaming i'm like get him get him he doesn't know what planet he's on! Get him! And the other guy's just like, I don't know, maybe he's tricking me. Maybe he's fooling me. There's no way I already fucked him up that bad.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Are you still here? Are you still here? Oh, you're not? Pop, pop, pop. And now Tyrone's just like, ooh, ooh. And he's staggering around. And the guy's still just like, I don't know, he might be suckering me in by just absorbing eight shots to the head in a row maybe i'll just dance around i'm just like kill him kill him i could beat him at this point throw me in right now and i could take him he's so fucked up he doesn't know where he is
Starting point is 00:52:35 i think i might be able to take tyron woodley at that point he was up against the cage his hands were at his at his like nipples and he was he looked like this i don't know on a counter argument didn't stipe lose that way stipe thought he hurt in ghanu and uh you know sort of went all offense and got hit yeah there was that weird flurry of exchanges and stipe threw maybe a left hit on gano but stipe stipe was already so fucked up because he just absorbed half a dozen shots to the head he was in no position to be able to gauge someone else's like combobulation level and yeah that's kind of how the fight ended but when he finally took him down and put him in that choke that was was a nasty choke. I like when you get to see the
Starting point is 00:53:25 eyes of the person getting choked. I was like, he's going to tap. This bitch would never take a choke. He would never get choked out in the ring. He's not that kind of man. He's going to tap. Sure enough, he fucking get out of there.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Is it a known thing that Tyron Woodley, you lay some heavy hands into him and he takes a known thing that tyron woodley like you lay some some heavy hands into him and he like takes a couple steps back like he just doesn't like it it's known he doesn't like getting hit which obviously nobody likes getting hit but then there are the fighters where it's like you know that guy doesn't really seem to mind like homer simpson style fighting wear them out and it's like how how am i yes there are fighters who who tire people out by absorbing punishment there are fighters i don't tire people out by absorbing punishment. There are fighters.
Starting point is 00:54:06 I don't know which one, but he did that, right? He could just engage. He, um, um, um,
Starting point is 00:54:10 um, fucking one 50, um, Tony Ferguson, um, like, like guys like that just keep coming at you. They're always on top of you and you're three rounds in,
Starting point is 00:54:21 you've given them everything you had and you look look over there at them, and they're bouncing. I'm coming for more. And you're just like, I don't have much more. That's got to be really discouraging as a UFC fighter when you're like, because I'm sure it's going in slow motion in their head, and they're like, oh, this one's going to connect. Oh, what a juicy a juicy ah that's why i train that's why i practice and he's just like oh no full fuck man like that's not fair i feel
Starting point is 00:54:56 like that happens it's beautiful when that happens like like justin gaethje just smile with her bloody mouth guard like tony will lick blood off of his fucking gloves and shit. He's got another human being's blood on his tongue. He's eating people's blood in the ring. I've seen him do it. I've seen him eat another man's blood in the ring. That's too far. That's gross.
Starting point is 00:55:18 That's cool. I can't remember who it was, but a few fights ago. They were on top of a guy kicking his ass, and the throws an upwards elbow and like cuts the top of his head, you know? And so blood is dripping really profusely, like down from, from his, in his hair, off his forehead. So he's just like, have some, yeah, have some. He's like rubbing the blood into the guy's eyes. He was obviously intentionally using his dripping blood as an offensive weapon. And if I'm getting your blood in my eyes and nose and mouth,
Starting point is 00:55:53 it becomes a priority for me to stop that from happening. But it's a distribution. Like how you praise them. They're fucking gross. But that just opens up a window to get more punches in because now I've divided my attention. This is why the UFCfc is the best fucking sport there is like the conversation we just had so so yeah so he used his own blood as an offensive weapon to blind his opponent you're like hey you don't see that in soccer
Starting point is 00:56:15 make an air bud rule about that no no no no intentionally bleeding on your opponent only a you know happenstance bleeding. Yeah. So yeah, I thought it was a real good night of fights. The only downside I thought was like the prelim, the early prelims was one fight. I usually, it's usually like three and then maybe four. So you end up with like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:56:39 a dozen fights throughout the whole night. But so it was a little bit shorter than I would have liked. But I got the outcome I wanted in virtually every every fight which isn't a prerequisite for a good night you know sometimes sometimes when my guy loses it's like i'm kind of fired up for the rematch or sometimes the next day i wake up and it's like the world's changed a little bit and there's a new heavyweight champion you know like something just went down and it like this kitchen vibe's different to me because of that it is cool there's in ghanu is the champ he's very scary i uh i hope he fights often agreed agreed i like active champions uh i what i you
Starting point is 00:57:20 know i i like to see him go out there and ply the trade. He does need someone to help him with his trash talking. He did say some negative stuff about Jon Jones. This is as nasty as it got. Jon Jones is an easier fight than Stipe. That's as nasty as he got. You can do better. Not very interesting at all.
Starting point is 00:57:40 Come on, the man hit and ran a woman who's pregnant. He's known for cocaine, steroids, marijuana, fucking having skinny legs, being a piece of shit. Like, attack. Jon Jones has nothing to offer me. I'm not a pregnant woman. Say it. Say it.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Say it out there. There you go. There you go. That'd be a good one. Dude, try that. Jon Jones doesn't want to get in the ring with me, so I've been walking around with this bag of cocaine i think i'll be able to lure him in oh i love that he should do that he should put on his belt loop and just bring it to press conferences that it's catnip for john jones this is cocaine yeah yeah just get a little bag of
Starting point is 00:58:19 flower or something you know powder sugar whatever it looks like. He's not going to come out. You know. He can tell from the grain. On the press table, make a little line of it. Coming closer and closer to where Steve is. He says, John Jones trap. Luring him in. It's got a stick and a box. Dude, that would be so great.
Starting point is 00:58:44 John Jones. Just while Jones is talking, dude that would be so great john jones just while jones is talking set it up you know quietly break out the credit card make some lines put the box the stick the comically bright string on it i gotta get him if you saw that like like because the bar is so low for these guys because they're they're meathead fighters for the most part like if they if they have a quip a little funny observation if they're able to like get their line out quickly even and it's it's just mediocre it's like oh good one good one i like it come on right now like look hit the heavy bag do your running get your cardio in lift your weights do whatever you're injecting into
Starting point is 00:59:25 yourself and Gano because we know it's something. Good God, you monster. You're fucking something that ends in alone or groan or totone alone. Whatever you're shooting into your ass cheeks is fucking working, brother.
Starting point is 00:59:41 In the meantime, come up with some fucking funny shit to say to make fun of john jones to like pump those numbers up right and john jones was and john jones the same shit you want to get paid fucking make it interesting conor mcgregor didn't get paid just because of flashing knockouts okay like there are plenty of people who can who like knock people the fuck out conor mcgregor got paid because he's so fucking entertaining. There's a reason why there are still tons of commercials I see on TV with Conor McGregor in them.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Despite the fact that he's not really doing anything fighting related. He's charismatic. Words roll off of his tongue smoothly. The accent's cool. Did he just lose it? Oh, Poirier beat him. Yeah. You know, he sold a proper 12 for a boon. Yes. I put it in our group uh what's that
Starting point is 01:00:27 i forget the number but it was like a lot john conor mcgregor it has been rumored that conor mcgregor has always exaggerated and sort of lied about how much he got paid by the ufc right he's out there telling people he got 15 million million from the USC, $100 million off of his Mayweather fight, stuff like that. And everyone is like, he did not. He's just doing what rappers do, pretending to be mega rich. This proper 12 sale, he is legit, honest, mega rich. He did it. He did it.
Starting point is 01:01:01 He's super rich. Yeah, but at this point, he easily has a hundred million plus in the bank and and you know who who knows how much else in assets um he he's made it you know he's at the point where he can waste he can go get himself a 25 million dollar jet if he wants to and uh and not worry too much and i'm sure he's already got one he's probably already got a fucking 25 million dollar jet every time i see him he's in a fucking quarter million dollar car he's wearing a 50 thousand dollar suit like the man likes uh living a certain lifestyle apparently mcgregor's worth more than 300 million now he's a third of a billionaire hell yeah i like it i like the guy you know look he started as a plumber, right? It's hard not to
Starting point is 01:01:45 on welfare. He was a plumber on welfare a decade ago. He earned it. True. I liked early McGregor. Well, I used to root against him but I was always wrong. But he would go on Instagram
Starting point is 01:02:02 and be like, see that stadium? I dream of fighting in that stadium someday. And that connected with me, right? And this is between fights. Every other fighter, you don't even see him. Conor's out there connecting with his audience. And that's why he sells. Everyone needs to do that.
Starting point is 01:02:19 You need to learn. Yeah, they don't get it. They don't get it. Like, if I were Conor McGregor, my next move might to be to have like a fucking representation company. Like, like, like we're going to represent you in negotiations with, uh,
Starting point is 01:02:31 with, with UFC, with, with sponsors. And we're going to work on your image. Like, like those three branches of the tree are things that he is better at than anybody.
Starting point is 01:02:41 Like, like say what you will about his fighting at his peak. I think he was one of the best. Um, I don't, I, I, don't i i'm i'm slowly unfortunately having having to agree with you more and more that he hasn't done anything lately i am a what have you done for me lately kind of guy when it comes to sports and athletes and stuff and the answer is not a whole lot unfortunately but those other three things god damn he, he might be the best. Yeah. All to wrap?
Starting point is 01:03:09 Yeah. I'm going to go eat dinner. Alright. PKN 345.
