"Down? It's a wrap. You're fighting a two minute fight. Because after two minutes, they gonna find a way to get you down. Good luck. You have to knock him out and I don't know if anybody can do it, but right now Islam is the man. Yeah, it's a hell of a performance by him. Let's hit the break. We got to come back. 'cause we have Khalil roundtree online. Leo's going to join jump in here, talk to him about his upcoming fight this weekend. So plenty more MMA talk to go. You guys don't go anywhere. All right, everybody, just that quick. We are back and as promised, our guest this week, Khalil roundtree from the UFC, UFC veteran. It's so crazy because I feel like you were just debuting not too long ago. But that's when I started covering UFC. Like professionally is right around your debut. It's crazy that it was 2016. We're like 7 years. I think your debut was my second fight that I covered. Oh wow. Yeah, it's gone by in a blink. Yeah, I was there. Oh man. I mean, when you use the word veteran and you'd say 70 years, you know, it's kind of crazy to believe that it's been this long. But it's actually kind of cool because it's like, wow, yeah, I have been, I have been in this for a minute. Yeah. So it feels good, right? They used to do the little scrums, like the real press media joints where we used to go one by one. You guys sit in the stool and chop it up. I miss those, man. Those are the good old days. Exactly the day before it's like one by one now on the stage. Yeah, yeah, stuff is changing 7 years. But you've managed to stay pretty consistent. You know, after getting into the UFC, took two losses, I believe, and then kind of figured it out. You're one of the few people we've talked to on this show that has stayed in the same division their entire UFC career. Usually we see people go up, go down, try to reinvent themselves. You kind of manage to stay on script and get better. And I was looking today. I was like, you have a whole career in front of you still. Only 32. I remember dental Cormier started at 31. Like you look at that. And your division go over to Cheryl is just champion about to run it back. The man's 43 years old. So you have years ahead of you. When you look at it, in those terms, how do you feel? Do you feel like a veteran or do you feel like, man, the best of me is still ahead? I definitely feel like the best of me is still ahead. You know, it's crazy because when I got into the UFC, you know, when I got into The Ultimate Fighter, I had only had three professional flights. And I got like the bare minimum of fights before I could even be eligible, you know. So it's crazy that although I reached the level of UFC, I experienced all of my growth in the biggest organization, you know what I mean? So it took for me to fall down a couple times. It took for me to learn some stuff and I feel like now I'm at a point where yeah, I think the best is yet to come because there's still a lot of growth growth left for sure. So Khalil, I mean, if I listen to Jacoby this weekend, who was on a nice little industry himself. But the interesting thing is when we talk about your status is like 8 quote unquote veteran. It's always interesting when fighters and MMA figure it out, put it all together. And sometimes the early on in your career, I've done a lot of fights. It was like, I thought I had it, but I didn't really have it. There was a day that I was in the gym. I was like, oh shit, if I mix this with that and that works, case in point, Charles Oliveira. I mean, granted, he just lost is a market share, but he was a 50 50 fighter for much of his career, and then he just started to figure it out. In your case, do you feel like the pieces are starting to fall into place finally?

"You beat a Charles Oliveira like that? Like, it wasn't like it was competitive. It was one way traffic. Look, I love, and I have Adesanya at number three. Alexander volkanovski number one. I'd assign his had some tough fights. Right? This reign of terror of Islam is now very it mirrors Khabib's. Emir sabis reign of terror. But now you kind of putting them both together because Islam really has improved in it against the level of competition that Adesanya has. No, no, no. I agree. I'm just saying, the way that Islam is dominating people, like we saw, Dana hookers is best when prior to this. Look, we said the same shit happened with Khabib, but it was just the way he was beating him, right? Instantly. So the thing about why I have out of Sanya at number three right now and I think it's very close is because the pound for pound conversation didn't translate when I saw you went to light heavyweight. It got beat. Yeah. You got young. And he's going into a fight where I'm not sure he's going to beat out spread. Because some people will go, this is just real quick. Some people go, well, said MMA now. Like, yeah, neither this guy has ever had a takedown in an octagon. This is just going to be kickboxing in a cage. So I don't know who has the advantage. Adesanya proved that much against prayer. Whereas with Islam, to be fair, Izzy was Kate boxing the fuck out of Perez and was dominating that fight until Perez. Knocked his block off. But, you know, you know, it's the great equalizer. Yeah, I have no idea how the fight's gonna go. The way Islam B Charles Oliveira, Charles Oliveira who had ridiculous winning streak, had beat everybody in what we all say is the toughest division in MMA. Right? Because of that dominance over the man who beat everybody else. And as much as I love volkanovski, I wouldn't have Okinawa she's a favorite in that fight. No, he's moving up. Exactly. He's fighting a guy who's going to be bigger and longer than him. And I love vote. And I think Vogue has a chance. I have him as a number one pound for pound 5 in the world. The way he boxed Max Holloway was phenomenal. The way he got out of the Ortega guillotine was phenomenal. I ain't getting out of this kid's guillotine. Don't be in that position. So for that reason, I have Islam at number two and I saw you at number three. If Adesanya mows down on his prayer, I still might not move in past Islam. How badass is it that immediately Habib and Islam are in octagon? And they're like, oh, Australia. That's scary. I'm the champion, vault you're coming here. That's scary. We're going to your backyard. We don't want this anywhere else. No Vegas, no neutral side. February, Australia. You're powerful power number one. We come in for that. In your crib. That's frightening. Nobody does that. Nobody goes, the World Series is the Phillies and the Astros. And like the Astros don't go, hey, we'll play the first four games in Philly. How about that? Nobody does that. This man just won a fight in already Habib was like, we are going to fuck you up basically in front of your own people. And then you see the interview, I think, was okamoto with Brett. That's where we beat was basically like basically volkanovski shit. He's like, he's really good. We respect him. He's really good, but when it comes to our guys, you ain't shit. That's scary. There's like a part where Habib was like three people in my gym beater. Three, three. Not even this guy. Like, right before this fight happened, I sat there and said Charles Oliveira could potentially be the greatest lightweight that ever lived. And then he got mowed the fuck down. Scary. How good was Habib? Because Islam is not a beat. It's very scary how good this camp of fighters are. And the way that, you know, the evolution of MMA has landed on this sambo style. And has landed on these grapplers who no matter what you do to them, they're going to get you down. They're going to smother you and they're going to demolish you. Dagestan. Where's Dagestan? That shit's like the size of New York. Bro, I should have known, you know, her beat was wrestling bears. I should have known. What am I doing here? Men's wrestling bears. It was just two kids to try to fight a bear recently. One was getting attacked in his friend jumped in and was like, man, this bear fucked us up. Habib was like, I handle that shit. And you're training a team of people. They ain't scared of humans? At all. At all. Like, what are you going to do? Bring a bear with you? Look, man. Islam is about to fight for the number one pound for pound spot in the world. Against volkanovski, this fight is happening. You have to. And I don't know, and I love vote, but he might be too small for this task. He might be too small. But I don't know. But looking fucking gay. He went mad man gay. Didn't even matter.

"He'll be the fan favorite as well. And with Shaw should get the title shot. 'cause now I don't even know in the testing pool already. Like, it's the officially back. I have no idea what Henry Simmons. But they're trying to figure out something. And I'm O'Malley, I wait. I definitely ain't fighting, you know, Vera again. I'll wait. I mean, if that's the case, and my rab is not going to find a teammate, the him and algorand are going to fight because they said that, even though at some point, you're going to have to fight because your teammates, otherwise no, I'll tell you vacate. Well, then you might as well move up because he's big anyway. I respect it as teammates, but wince like morave gets up that high, one of y'all going to have to make a fucking decision. Yeah, I'll just go on vacation. He's going to move up to featherweight where, I don't know about that. But don't take the chances on the ground. We'll see. I hate it for Al Joe in the sense that you're still just respecting the champion. You still didn't get that victory that you've been looking for that was clean. Even though you beat the shit out of TJ or register, well, he was hurt. On Tuesday on me, shit. He probably would beat the shit out of him anyway. He doesn't know what to do on the ground. He was going down anyway. I said it from the beginning. Like Al jol's ground game is severely underrated. The way he takes out the way he moves on the ground, his ground control is super underrated. Nobody gives him credit for that. And I don't think TJ would have had an answer for it. Anyway, wouldn't have mattered. I always thought Al Joe was really good. I mean, since the beginning of this show, goal was really good, had a couple of slip ups throughout the years. I never thought he'd be this good. Yeah, now he's exceptional. Like holding the belt for three years. I mean, Marla morey is not this block off. He came back. Shit happens. You lose fights? Yeah. Shit happens. He's just fine. He'll be fine. We'll just see what happens with him next. So who do O'Malley it seems like it would be one of those two? Yes, and then main events, Charles Oliveira, Islam market have Drake. Well, as long as Brazilian jiu-jitsu is great. It's amazing. I'm fully bought in on the Habib Kool-Aid. Where he says this ain't shit compared to sambal. The baby's right. They don't fall for the traps. There's something about and throughout this fight I really started looking and like some film, like looking at this fight, I think I know why. When you're on top control ensemble, they understand like jiu-jitsu is very predicated on shoulders and neck and trapping you from the bottom. So you throw up a triangle, you're getting the shoulder to neck, you're trying to get there where you're trying to fight for position, trying to grab shoulder and neck on the bottom, get to different positions, sambo, because they brace up kind of in a bridge position. Doesn't allow for that, and the key is they tuck their chin in top control. So every time you watch a sambo wrestler, even Habib, it's forehead to chest. When the guys on the ground chin tucked, just like you're fighting standing up. So you're in no danger because your chin is tucked at all times. You can hit them from the bottom. You could try subs, but you're not getting anything because of the posture of their chin and their arms. You can't trap them. You can't move position. It's like a, it's like geometry. It's like a perfect triangle type shit. It's beautiful to watch. Next time watching any of these people or anything like that. Watch when they're in top control. You'd be like, yo, this motherfucker's tucking his chin. They do everything from top control and their chin never leaves their chest. Ever. It's the most amazing thing. Islam, when he went for the submission on Charles Oliveira, his chin never lost his chest. He slid his head over his chin slit across his chest to get on the other side so he could slide his arm around and get the choke, his chin never elevated. Ever. They're never in a bad position. And while I agree with you, I think the sticking point was the first 30 seconds of the fight. Charles Oliveira runs and throws his kick to get there was a reason for it to get an Islam out of position to get him to back up so he can be aggressive. Islam bad the shit down and step to the side. And you can see on Charles Oliveira's face like, oh shit. Because the question that I had that I thought was going to be the difference maker is that can Islam's strike with Charles. And I learned immediately that Islam was very smart on his feet where Charles tries to create openings by being aggressive and busy. Morab was I mean, Islam was going for any of that shit. No. And it was from that point that I was like, oh, this is different. So and then Charles invites the takedown. Islam stacks them. Doesn't allow him to do much. And I was like, well, Charles best shot here is to catch him standing up in the second round. It is on catches him with a left hook, perfectly placed left hook, and does what Charles does. Chase them to the canvas 'cause other fighters won't do it. Chase them to the canvas and try to go for the ground and pound. Islam hurt him away for an arm triangle. Islam is different. That it wasn't just, it was a combination of everything that now makes me go, shit, man. I don't know who's gonna beat this guy. Ever. And Islam one, he's not a great striker, a bee wasn't a great striker. He used the exact same technique that a beam used to drop Connor. It's the exact same part. I beat you so the right hand Islam used it with his left. The threat of the takedown opens up that wonky, wide ass over the top. Hook that they throw. And it catches you before you know what the fuck's going on. Because the level change just the head going down, your hands are like this. Boop, right on the chin, because they don't land on the top of the head, they don't land on the outside, it comes over, right to the chin, and you're on the ground, and then your curtains. So many ways to get someone on the ground. And once they're on the ground, and this kind of dominant victory, I have Islam as the number two pound for pound fighter in the world.

"Has a Habib. Yeah, that's it. That's really it. These mow down people has been very dominant. But there's only one Habib though. There's only one of bieb, Islam got knocked out in the second UFC fight. Charles Oliveira is a much better striker than Islam. Does Islam really want to take this fight to the Met? That's his only chance of winning the fight. Does he really want to come into the best guard in the UFC? Does he really want to take it to the ground with the best offensive and defensive jiu-jitsu practitioner in the UFC? If he doesn't, he's left standing. If he's left standing, just over. Just in case you said, that's the hardest I've ever been hit in a fight. Just a gate she said that. If Charles Oliveira is standing in front of Islam akshat, he's getting much I was doing not getting knocked the fuck out. Yeah. They got to take it down. Got to live with that by the ground. But if he takes to the ground, you're dealing for 5 rounds with the best you just to practice in your UFC office back. Yes. And you got to say sambo greater and BG, BJ. Not this one. Nope. Charles O'Hara is going to finish my trip. He's going to knock him out. And if he doesn't knock him out, he's going to catch him chasing to the canvas and choke him out. One of those takes all but one fight differently. Yeah. It's just perfect. And that's how you know it's such a good car. 'cause we just go through and just be like, fuck it. Don't know what's going to happen, but we're going to be here enjoying it. Also, Charles Oliveira wins, he's the golden lightweight. Really? We're doing this already. All right. If he wins, we'll have this discussion on the next MMA show. Don't open up next week. He'll solidify if he beats volkanovski after that. Then it's over. Sorry, he's not been in a beat. All right. Volkanovski mate, and then we're talking. He's not better at B right now, even with this. No, not right now. No. Okay. If you feel that way, he'll be will come back and just quit. That's what I want. He started the pod. No, we appreciate you all for listening. It's amazing MMA show will keep the short and sweet. Shout out to everyone at blue wire. Make sure you guys listen to our wrestling and boxing shows from earlier in the week. Check out UFC two 80 this weekend. We'll be opening up next week with this. In the meantime, follow us on social media at corner podcast. I'm just going Twitter, corner club for life on Instagram. Myself for the old manager as hell. So next time,

"Because remember nobody at team alpha male could be Dominic Cruz until Cody Garbrandt and that took all the and he had to be injured and had to have all that time off. TJ Dillashaw is not the greatest man in the way of all time. He's also going to lose this fight. He's facing somebody that I think he's completely underestimating in terms of he hates aljamain striking. We all do. Aljamain striking is basically his leg kick is his jab. And he used that as his range fighter, but I think what TJ is not what he's underestimating is how quickly aljamain closes distance, how good his wrestling is and how fluid he is from going from one transition to the other when he gets you on the ground. If TJ makes the mistake of not keeping this fight on the feet, for as long as he can, he's losing a decision because Al is going to control him for at least three of the 5 rounds. I'm picking out to defend the title. I'm going to pick Al Joe. That's only because I don't got another choice. I don't have anywhere else to go with my decision. I don't want to. Due to stupid shit he said this week. But I'll pick out, you know, I just don't know. Like, you see, TJ, he looks full TJ again. That's the problem. He looks wooden. It's like an action figure who can't move. Like his limbs don't move properly. His striking and everything. Out of sometimes it's weird. If he doesn't get you to the ground, and what is he? TJ's 30 6, man. TJ's 36. I changed my give me TJ to win this and I thoroughly disliked that. But I think he's going to win how? I just want to know how. My decision. I'll joke can't fuck with him on the feet. He's going to strike him. He's going to go full Dominick Cruz in and out funky bunch. Like in boom footwork movement, look at my arms, like my arms, flex, like it looks like he may not be on what he was on before, allegedly he was. But allegedly, if someone was to continue and find a different substance, they would look like TJ Dillashaw. He don't look like the guy before fighting head and burrow. No, no, no. But that's why I think he's going to lose. It's because the way he looks suggests to me. He looks like he just got out of prison. That's how buff TJ Doolittle looks. But it makes me question, you're in a 5 round fight. You need oxygen in those muscles, you're going to get tired. Algal is going to make you, he's going to get you tired. TJ, that keeps saying he's 36 for a good reason. Watch the San higgin fight again. He barely won that fight. Barely by the skin of his teeth. What do alto do to Corey sandhagen? Mold him the fuck down. Slice through him and choked him out. I don't think he'll choke TJ out. I just think if TJ makes them any mistake and I think he'll make three of them in this fight. And he'll find himself on his back. Because TJ thinks his wrestling is better than Al Joe's. Alan, he's better on the ground. His ground game is very underrated. Oh yeah. I mean, that's his best part of his game. Right, what he did to Peter young, the submissions that he pulls off. He's very underrated. I don't think TJ really wants to go there with him. No, he didn't have to stand stand up. I just don't know if TJ Dillashaw, his physical makeup right now can last 5 rounds without he looks like an action figure. That's like, it's like The Rock being a pro wrestler again. That's not wrestling body. That's actually the hero body. I don't know if this is gonna work. I'm gonna pick I'm sticking with my ceiling prediction. I think it'll be a good fight. I'm only curious because Sterling's striking is he still hasn't put that part of his game together. Yes Sarah and longa have been working with him for a long time. He uses it to find rain and close distance. He doesn't use it to hurt anybody. And if you make some mistakes, TJ could catch him. But I'm picking out all the windows. Main event, Charles Oliveira, Islam makhachev. Two of the longest winning streaks in lightweight history right here. Both telling Habib. Antonio first. But I think they're three and four now. All time and lightweight history. Someone's got to give. I'm just going to we're going to differ from the bat. It's a stops. The hype train. He doesn't stop. But not a hybrid, but he stops the streak of Charles Oliveira. I think sambo went out again to Brazilian due to two here. Not me. I think this is I picked against Charles Oliveira, no life for 5 straight fucking fights. Yeah, you might be doing it again just because Charles is going to win this fight. Here's the problem. You talk about these winning streets. These wings treats are not the same. What Charles Oliveira is done, he's beat against the top. Of the lightweight division. Islamic says best victory is against who? Dan hooker? Bobby Brown? Now, the reason why everybody looks at them is the favorite because he is the favorite, which is wild to me. Islam? Yeah. I wouldn't bet him as a favorite for sure. This has a Habib. Yeah, that's it. That's really it. These mow down people has been very dominant. But there's only one Habib though.

"500 for half his career. Nobody. Damn, I mean, Robbie Lawler. It was close. That was pretty damn good, but it wasn't. And again, we saw the fall of that spring. Yeah. So we don't know the fall. But it was short. It was the Hendricks files. Quick fat. You know, then he ran into Tyron Woodley and got killed. But Charles Oliveira was a 500 fighter on his way out of the UFC two years before they were talking about retiring. Those who shoot box retools this game finally goes to lightweight after playing around in featherweight and hasn't lost, hasn't only had one decision. What decision and holds finishing everyone holds the UFC record finishes submission performance of the night bonuses. I mean, the man started at like 20. Yeah, but usually, guys don't they find a second wind. They still go, they go, I wanted to, like, three and four. Fuck are they lost? No, no. He's the champ. I've never seen anything like that. Got some hands. He is off who said this? Was it Paul Felder? Was RJ Clifford? So the Charles Oliveira is the fedor of the lightweight division. Fedor used to be in every fight and get in trouble. Yeah, yeah. And then he just beat the shit out you. At some point it was like, he didn't look very fedor didn't look imposing. He would get hurt. He was vulnerable. He fucked you up. Charles, it looks the same. You look at Charles over? Just in case he behind it in the division? Oh, Charles over all time. You said that he's number one? Number one in like, I mean, all time, I think Khabib is the number one. And then this one. It's Frank Yeager. Okay. Then there's BJ Penn. You can put Charles in there somewhere. Put him ahead of BJ now. Yeah, I think it's Frankie everybody because Frankie arrows wars with gray maintenance. Frankie era had no business at lightweight. He was a featherweight. Finding a lightweight became the champion. But Charles Alvarez Khabib was like here, but you also have like right there now. And it's like fedor. He gets hurt. You recovers? Fixes whatever's wrong and then you finish being able to beat him. But as I convincing. Every fight that passes, the first time when Charles over here first one of the titles Khabib won. Second files like bibim two. Fight's getting longer now. No, it is. And if in a perfect world, which will, nothing's ever perfect. If Charles was the finish, Islam akshat, then people would be like, oh, maybe he would. And Khabib should be that's his guy. Yeah. Yo, if I'm Danish, like how many millions do you want to come back to fight Charles Oliveira? The story is. Oh, he ain't fight. He's done. No, he's.

"To win. I was going to fight starts. I thought Justin was going to win. Justin drops for twice. Oliveira's chin is underrated. His resolve is underrated. 'cause you can't. To beat him now right now. You gotta knock him spark out. Yes. Because if you knock him down, everyone's scared to death to go into the guard. To finish him. I was problematic. You got to let him back up. You're not coming down again. You got to let him back up. And it showed when he got back up. He just got to knock you down once. He is not scared to get into your guard. And it's over. That's what it was. If gage would have jumped into the guard and tried finishing him, might have had a better chance. He wasn't going to try that yet. And Oliver has a very unique set of skills. And those submissions, 21 submissions. It's ridiculous. There's only one guy I want to see him fight. Yes, if I is. Yes, that's the fight. That's absolutely fine. I do not worry about you. You did so at all. And I think he's true. I think he's honest to God, like, really that confident. I got another name for you. I'm gonna mention in a second. I want to talk about the fight real quick. One, I told you, we're gonna make a joke. I think that was gonna happen. All Charles had to do was find an opening and there's nothing just in case you could do it. There's nothing anybody can do about it. Charles Oliveira has that loss is 2000 15. I believe, yes. 18. He only has one decision. And that was against Tony Ferguson, and he wore totally Ferguson out. Everybody else he's finished. Let's first talk about the unique set of skills. Got knocked out by Paul Felder in 20 states. And I talked to Paul Felder on with unlocking the cage and SiriusXM. I was like, you're the last person that beat him. I was like, I'm retired. I'm good. That's a different monster in there now. 2017. Charles Oliveira, he got submitted by Anthony Pettis. Yeah. And the appetizers, you look at Anthony pez's record. Beat some people. Yeah. Charles Oliveira has a very unique set of skills because none of them are defensive. He knocked out Michael Chan. He submitted Justin Gates. He gets hit. It's not like he's not in trouble in every fight he's in. Every single one now. He gets in trouble, but it's like, well he's not dead. He just gets stronger. And even strong like gates used to get stronger. Like Michael Johnson hit him in his wake him up. Yeah, he's like, all right, let's fight. Alvarez hit goes down and was like, I got you where I want you, and it's like, what the fuck do you mean? And then it's like, now he gets up. You watch the gate you fight. Gacy knocks him down. What is all of verdu? He gets up. Wraps him in the tie and starts throwing knees, engage he's like, wait, I wasn't expecting this. I was expecting me to pick apart. And what a gate you do, he went back to the old gauge because he had to just throw punches because he kept coming. I was like, I can't believe this fool's coming at me the way he is. And left himself open. Yeah, and then the other thing is Charles Oliveira. Yes, he missed weight. I don't care he's UFC lightweight champion. I don't give a lot of people say like the scale was off. I talked to Mark ratner. Tell us miss wait, that's it. It sucks, but he missed weight. Yeah. But I think, I don't care. He's the champ. Look, the champ doesn't even come to the cage with the belt. Right? But when the next fight that Charles Oliveira has, he's the champ. The only thing this is effects is his check. That's the only thing that matters. And I hope he's getting pay per viewpoints. They gave Dana said he gave them. I'm talking about this next one. Oh, going forward though. Yeah, because if he's not getting a champions salary, I hope he's going to pay per view points because he's the draw going into whatever fights next. It ain't going to be calm. Defended. If Connor decides he wants to cut down Connor against him. It won't be coming. I don't think so. I don't think Hannah wants to cut down. No, he won't cut down. And you don't want to face a guy. Or this other person, but hang on. It's not makhachev, because they're going to make him fight. You know, there he is. But Charles might wait. He might wait. He's had a lot of fights. But I don't know how conducive to his longevity that Charles Oliveira can keep doing this. Right now he's effectively almost cleaned out the entire division. Yep. But the fact that he gets hurt every fight because he's now he's 31. And I said this on the last show about Canelo. Once you pass 31 shit starts to change. I don't know if he can still take those punches by whoever's coming up. 32, 33. He's going to have to shore up his defense. He can't keep getting hit like this. As long as it works, and nobody stop. Now, Daniel Cormier had Charles Oliveira before this fight is the number three lightweight of all time. Yeah. I hate doing it because he's in the middle of the run and I can't quantify it until he's done. Yeah. But I was like, yeah, he's probably the best. He's the best. He's hands down the best. And nobody saw this coming. There has never been and you tell me if you could find one. I've never been a fighter who has evolved in this way and been this dominant after being.

"The last one of the Robbie Lawler fight as great as the fight that was. That was rough to watch. But the same with same with Robbie Lawler and that instance though, it's like he's been sticking with the game as it's evolved. And I won't talk bad about Robert either. But Robbie, though, let's get closer to the end of his career that he is the beginning, but for him to have stuck around and compete as well as he has in the last his last several fights is pretty remarkable. Yeah, no, I was picking Nick the S to win. I'm not going to go in. And I mean, that was a great fight, but it was like two guys that are not enough. Right. Like a legacy kind of deal. A 100%, a 100%. Now, other fights that are this week, by the way, do we have Charles Oliveira or do we just see? I don't know. That's such a tough one 'cause. Shit. That's so tough. Because like Oliveira is like been on a fucking tear and he looks so good and I really feel like he's completed he's ever been, but I don't know. I really don't know. That's a so tough. Well, I mean, I just feel like no one at some point he's getting your back and it's done. Like how can you for an entire fight prevent him from getting your back at this point? He's gotten so good at that. Throws all of Michael Chandler got out. But gee, I don't understand he was the two time all American wrestler. He has not taken one takedown. Attempt in any of his fights. You would never know. Yeah, I think that's such a misnomer though, that people keep bringing that up, but it's like, bro, I never like, he hasn't made that a factor of his fights ever. So I don't understand why people keep bringing it up and it's like almost irrelevant at this point. George Saint Pierre was a karate background guy, but like every fucking fight he had in somebody who was on their back and their face master their own torn off or whatever..

"And Koopa troopa was great. It was great. He looks out of his head. He's like, he said, I love it. Yeah, hanging off by his strength, Jerry. Yeah, hanging on. You're hanging on by his strength. You know, as staying as agent, you know? Because he had nobody left. He was the only client he had left. And he says, I just love it. I love it, Jerry. Jerry, I love it. The way you're hanging on, you hanging on there, Jerry, you know, and Jeff is like, oh, you know, freaking, let me get out of here, you know? I love it, Jerry. I love it. I love you, hang it on. You hanging in there, Jerry. Well, Asuka's hanging in there. He's hanging. He's hanging by a thread. He's hanging by his tread. He's hanging by a dread. He might have to take that fight with Jake Paul. You know what I mean? He might. I mean, we hope he doesn't for his sake 'cause there's no coming back from that, although after some of the pictures that have floated around him, I don't even think he cares anymore. Anything to make a dollar. Hey, one thing that you pointed out earlier about the people that were listening to the last two predictions on going to my bookie would have made a couple extra shekels this weekend to offset the price of this some of these pay per views. But with the UFC, you know you're going to be disappointed in for the guys at my bookie and if you like to gamble and gamble responsibly, you can go to my book he thought AG and use the promo code Atlas. They'll give you 50% 50% credit on your first deposit up to a thousand bucks. So if you put in 2000, they'll give you a $1000 to bet with for free. And hopefully you can take advantage and leverage that deposit and make some smart bets. Like going to the casinos, somebody and your chips before you walk in the door, right? So yeah. And again, please all joking aside. Campbell responds. I can't afford to lose. But if you like to gamble, I think my bookie provides a great product. And for the people at my book and like to play teddy, the line on the main event, just engage Charles Oliveira plus money on gaichi plus one 50 minus one 80 on Charles Oliveira. What do you like? Well, I love the old timers would say can, you know, he's been around a long time and he finally got the title when you win the title you improve 30%. I believe that. And he looks like he gets better every fight. I believe that. I love gaiji. I talk about styles. It's only going to be a great fight because it's a style of gaiji because of his approach because of his attitude because of his mentality, same thing with Oliveira. It's going to be a back and forth fight. I would not be shocked by an upset, but I'm going to go with the champion. Oliveira. Because based on what I just said, all my years in a sport the old times were right. You see a guy with a title, he finally gets the title at 30% improvement immediately. Immediately. Just by winning the title. So I'm going to, I'm going to go with that. But would I be shocked to see to see my man gauge wind up leaving that ring with the title? No. No. And again, that's what you love about the UFC. You can make an honest legitimate argument for both guys to win the fight. That's what makes for good fights. Right there. Right there. So you're going into the vaga Stevenson bank. Now I'm not being a Monday morning quarterback. I'm never that. I'm a lot of things. And people will tell you that. Not all good, maybe. But I'm not that. I'm not going to tell you something after the fact. I'm going to be consistent with what I said before they got no ring. That fight, I didn't think you could make an argument who was going to win. For the Katie teller and yes, yes, but for the vodka Stevenson fight, no. For me, you couldn't make an argument. Only one guy was going to win that fight. Only one guy. And I only explain why. Stevenson was going to win it. But for this fight on the UFC cod gay and aloe Vera, you can make a damn good argument for either side. Well, how about this over under over one and a half rounds minus one 85 for the under, you get plus one 55. One and a half over under. You mean for the over, right? For the under, you're getting plus money plus one 55. If you think it's going over one and a half rounds minus one 85, but that's a super low over under one and a half rounds. I mean, I guess they think the only way I think explosive. Yeah, explosive, which I think is the only way gaichi wins this fight is to be explosive. I think if it goes longer, the longer he stays in there with all of her, I don't know. For me, the longer he stays in there with him, the longer Charles has an opportunity to get him on the ground and grapple him. But gage is an incredible wrestler. But I think they're standing on their feet. On the feet, I think he has a huge advantage. All of that could handle himself on his feet too, but I would agree with your gauge as an event at a probably. We'll see whether or not it shows. But Oliveira, he's a python on he's a python on the floor. I mean, he raps himself this way that way. I mean, he's like trying to really. Who would want to go into the jungle and read so a python? For an alligator. Oh, it's an alligator. But it wraps himself this way of the legs, your neck. Everything. That guy, he's a monster on the mat. He earned that title..
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas

"Huge fights plural per usual. The UFC is putting on a banger of a show, headlined by the great Charles Oliveira against just engaging who's just announced. We got Rose Namajunas on the co main against Kala esperaza. I love rose. There's nothing to not like about Rose Namajunas. Michael Chandler, Tennessee zone, Nashville, Michael Chandler taking on Tony Ferguson, the wildcard, Ferguson had a rough outing his last time. We'll see how he bounces back. And then the opening fight cowboy Cerrone is fighting the legend Joe Lausanne. Joe Lowe's on seems like he's been around for a hundred years. I think he might have participated in The Ultimate Fighter number one, honestly. I feel like he's been around since the UFC has been around consistent constantly tough, but to the point earlier about fighters. He's been around. What a tough son of a gun. They all are. But here's the point I wanted to make. How many losses do you think take a guess? How many lawsuits you think Cerrone has? I would say 14. 16. Lowe's on 16 losses, but I'll tell you one thing. They could have imposed that most people would be because I understand what it's not a dead sentence losing a fight in the UFC. No. As long as you can get everyone with top guys and perform. And these guys supposedly when they were younger, they were learning while they were losing fights. They were getting better. They were getting better. And I know people would say, oh, Dana has an unfair advantage. That's a fair comment. He does. But the problem is with parks and you take a loss, like in boxing, you take two guys haney and Cambodia. When they take a loss from that, it's going to be like pushing a rock up a hill to get like another competitive fight after that because the other top guys are going to be like, all right, we can disregard the guy who lost. Even though style wise, he might be incredibly challenging fight. They're not going to want to get in there with them because he's got a lost and they're going to view it as like, oh, I'm not going to fight a guy ranked lower than me and it just creates this perpetual cycle of reinforcing to people. I don't want to take a Los I don't want to be in that guy's position. He can't get another fight because he's super dangerous. He's incredibly talented. Why should I risk taking an L myself? I'd rather fight the champion. The reason why our friend Poirier, one title, one fights, one in term title, got the huge fights and just knocked it out of the park with the biggest star in the business. McGregor, the razor why he got to the level that he could get those demand be given those kind of fights is because his skill levels kept improving even when he lost. He took fights with guys, danger fight, rescue fights. He won most of them. He lost some of them. But what happened was he improved. He got forged by the fire. He got better and what it did was it put him in position a to get another top fight, but here's the most important thing. And put him in position to win it when he got it. That's what that's what it did by fighting top guys not being afraid to take those and not only be afraid to take those fights, but to take the laws that might come with the risk of fighting those level fighters, but the reward was greater than the risk because you learned how to fight. You got better. And by getting better, you were going to one day beat Conor McGregor twice and make a lot of money. That's a perfect example, teddy, because he took a loss of bad loss to McGregor. And guess what, he went back to the drawing board, got better in either Connor hasn't gone better or he's gotten worse because then Dustin beat the brakes off. I'm twice. And two same two guys, just a couple of years, difference from the last from the time they fought. And Dustin took the loss and went back to the drawing board and got better. And same thing with Khabib. I think he makes more money. I think Dustin makes more money now per fight than he ever did and you know he suffered some losses. He got the loss to Charles lost. It could be but he's losing to the champion and he's right there on the precipice. He held the interim title and he just keeps showing up and yeah, to your point, he's the perfect example of how a loss doesn't necessarily have to be a detriment. It sucks at the time, but if you're a champion, you learn from it, you get better, you come back stronger. Unfortunately, in boxing, I think people would love to do that, but they know if you do have that loss, some of this stuff is out of your control. If the promoter isn't going to give you offer you the fights and the opponents aren't going to want to get in there with you, it's very easy for them to avoid you. And act like this is all a promoters. 100%. Listen, I'm going to add one thing. To that magnificent card you just talked about and you just talked about that it's coming up on UFC this weekend. That you just publicized. The difference between that card and what it's going to wind up being. And it kind of action that's going to be in that octagon. And what happens Saturday night would valdes and Stevenson. This is the difference. This is it. Yes, Stevenson and Valdez with two undefeated fighters. Two top fighters. Two champions in their own right. No doubt. The matchmaking. See, there's a science to it. These guys don't get it sometimes. These promoters, these matchmakers, these TV networks who depend on these guys to get it right. They don't get it right. The matchmaking is so important. You can have a great fighter, but if you put them in there with the wrong style, it's not going to be a great fight. See, that's the difference. These are going to be great fights, you know, why? The styles. Yeah, some of them have laws. Yeah, then I don't defeat it all of them, but the most important thing is the styles to match making UFC does in putting the right styles together will guarantee a great fight. We'll guarantee that people come back for more. We'll guarantee that people leave Saturday night from that venue from their TV sets, being satisfied. Not that they just saw guys go in there that was promoted that they had undefeated records and they had titles satisfied that they saw competitive fights. They saw great fights, great action. That's the difference. That's the difference. There's 15 fights on that UFC card. You know how many are undefeated? Match making so important. None. There's one woman on the early on the cards that's 8 zero two. Other than that, not one single fighter undefeated. I understand how it works. I understand what I'm talking about. And that's why I'm saying the matchmaking. That's the difference. That's the difference, you guys. What do you have say? And watch a fight on ESPN or whatever the network is only like three or four of them out there now, right? I mean, you got PBC with our Heyman, you got, you got disowned, of course, with Eddie Hearn. The la Jolla is hanging on by a string. And. Why? That would be generous. Hey, you got ESPN. You know, get that movie. People like the movie references. Right, Ken. Right? Yeah. They like the movie represents, rob, references, rob. Get out the one from Jerry Maguire. Oh, this is a good one. Where Louis Cuba's junior, I might say his name, I love him. What's his name? Tom Cruise. With the younger lookalike when you were back in the day when they had a young Tom Cruise slash teddy. Exactly. Well, they used to make them mistake off. But now they make it with you. But get the scene, rob the fans are going to love it. Get this scene where Cuba junior is in a locker room. I think it's in the locker room. Yeah, he's in the shower. In the shower and he says to Maguire's having a tough time. You know, Maguire. He's having a tough time. He's out of board from his backside. He is. And he's trying to and he's like pleading with he's saying all this stuff. He's saying all this stuff..

I gave everything that night. And you know he is great and then with what he was fighting with with the death of his father. I really felt that power in there. And i just don't think that no matter what i did or how great i was. You know. Next to the one in a million. You don't shut their lights out. Shot is doesn't happen often than it was gonna be hard for me to win. So yeah i you know i. I've confident i need to be confident that nobody on planet earth that one hundred fifty. Five pounds can for y. I want to take those shots to walk through shots and continue to pressuring and take me down you know in be that affected so Obviously as a competitor. I was not not happy. I got home and yeah it was definitely you know a period where you gotta soak a little bit but then really just pick yourself back up two times a year and ultimately it was the biggest stage of the world you know for the for the number one prize in the world and i help traced chasing something great. You know i failed. But that's definitely something electrical be that you will experience way to great amen. To that i want to get into this. This matchup between charles oliveira and dust emporia and just kind of your take on it. Justin because i do think it's really interesting. Obviously you face but just your thoughts on what might play out and then how you believe you match up against whoever gets their hand raised there with that title shot. It's a very interesting match up. I mean i got report. You most certainly.

"Which is why. I think he should call the option. Say fighting d. as in december because again charles oliveira various other option right now is going to be fighting. Bonilla darioush okay Much like jet said that's probably two four pay per views But again what are you. What are we missing out on either. Beats charles oliveira for tyler. He beats bonilla. Gary data like dusted. Oh to be both those guys ganci. I think h you will end up fighting chandler. I don't even know if he's going to go to new york in november. I think that's gonna turn political pretty soon So i think it's still going to happen if gates you wins then. Of course yes that does set up you to be in a in a number one contender's position. Maybe he ends up fighting maka chat if he gets past dangerous depending on how things play out so yeah i don't think dustin needs the tunnel right now and i do. I don't think they're going to have him win the title. And then just go to one hundred seventy pounds for a catchweight fight against the as At this point especially if dss now sitting a couple of losses. I don't think they want their lightweight. Champion to even risk the possibility the somehow pull off the upset somehow goes out there and has that leon edwards performance. Where he you know comes surging back in fifth round and somehow gets a finished. They don't want that. Look for their lightweight champion. Unless there's a belt on the line if he goes up and loses tomorrow's mont. It's not bad you lose the. It's terrible so yeah i think you should try the as get the paycheck because the reality is if he fights charles oliveira it's good pay-per-view per view does support as a big name. Now it might do seven hundred thousand buys. That's not bad. He buys as it does one point one million and that's a whole other zero at his paycheck and the day for paper viewpoints I big believer in prize fighting these prize fighters and get the biggest prize and conor mcgregor sidelined navy as is the biggest prize. You can get right now. And i will disagree with what he's never gonna fight george basil. I've actually here let me do a little namedrop doing is they'll do name dropping. I was at american top team a couple of years ago and i saw them sparring. It was a fun sparring session man. They beat the hell out of each other. The mike brown is there is their head coach. Share head coach. They are very close. I don't think they'll ever fight each other even for big bag. I just think masbate all season author enough other options out there with maybe leon edwards or maybe he goes after nate diaz in the future. Something like that. They don't need to fight each other. So nate diaz is kind of the last man standing could get dustin a huge paycheck unless he goes back to the to the honor. Fight for a fourth time dame though. Why damon david hammer point. Appoint for me. He just said they. Dust employ fighting for the bell. He convertible seven hundred thousand buys enormous number. Remember the last time they fought. He fought her record with israel. This on you to uc to sixty three de israel had the rematch between figueredo marino. Ed thanks sold thing. It estimated six hundred thousand buys so. Dan just said that he can pull more by himself. He has contributed to your c to sixty three even if you give it a bunk because it'd be fighting a. So the confluence of power. There kicks it up a notch he's gonna do substantially similar. Andy just gets the goal. He he wants that gold. He needs to get their gold because he deserves that gold and he can pull money with anybody he hits. The world is his oyster. He doesn't need to take a detour right now today. Land but the fight will draw better eyeballs ideas. Fighting the on edwards is a fight. No one really cared about. Let's go let's just be honest about that. It was the third fight on a per view. And no one really cared about that. Fight that much Nobody did and it was supposed to be defined to put liane edwards over and then he goes on has a fifth round where he nearly gets finished and now all anyone can talk about his ds. Nadir's headlining against george mazda. That did great. Pay-per-view numbers nate diaz and a fiery. Fight against those two guys. Do not like each other and to hyper will be built around that to close out the year december. You're telling me that wouldn't be a huge show. Absolutely be a huge show. It'd be far bigger than anything he would do against charles oliveira or Or or bonilla dare you so just again. Reality is doesn't story much. Bigger payday fighting. Nate diaz and the risk is minimal. I mean again. We both admitted. He'll beat nate diaz. Chances are but the unknown factor the nate diaz factor still out. There people still believe in him that he can pull off the upset. And like i said i don't think once he gets the titled is really going to be there for many more especially if date isn't willing to cut to one fifty five so yeah i think that's the gopher the bank man go for the paycheck. Make your bank make your money and then go get that seidel damon. How does not as do this. I mean people love the guy and for twenty three minutes and change. He got the work from liane edwards in june. It wasn't like the most aesthetically pleasing fight of all time. Leeann go out there and land four hundred strikes autumn david of the year. But this one way traffic through twenty three minutes but you know the everyone remembers vital ninety seconds or so of that fight before that he was getting the would put to him as jed misuse as so often by mazda fight is stopped very few people thought that it was going to get any better for nate but his value just continues to skyrocket whether he wins or loses. And he's still mentioned in these fights with these guys that the vast majority of people feel are so far ahead of him. Like if you asked one hundred people who wins between eighteen ninety eight are going to say dust emporia probably wins that fight but there he is in this conversation. How does this happen. And how does he keep doing this. There are a few names in the industry where losses just don't seem to matter until it gets ugly and the reason i say that is is because the three names mention always seem to get the fights. They want the big fights they want and get you name at certain times. And that's the as nick de asked for a long time it was. Bj penn now sadly we know bj the his career did not go well. And i think we're past the point where anyone we call him out and feel good about it but there was a time when even bj off a bad loss or a couple of bad losses people. It's still ceo is. Bj penn is alleged. Of course give fight when it is coming back head and fought in five years six years now and people are like. Oh yeah give him liane edwards. Give him him gilbert. I'm like he hasn't six years. Is less anderson. Salah middleweight contender. That's just the appeal..

"Know this is a this is a tough one. Because i think a lot of it really does come down to dust and preference but i would say the chances that they book nate diaz against dustin as around an eight or nine and the reason i say that is because this is it's quote imminent. He's got one shot and what i mean by. That is if he goes out there. Beach charles oliveira then. Ads fi goes away. They're not gonna let him fight for a title. I think we all know that part of it's not gonna happen. But in warriors case he can cash in any other massive payday before fighting for the title while everyone is still already calling him. The best lightweight in the sport absolutely no disrespect to charles varies incredible fired or put together an incredible resume. What he's done lately has been fantastic. But i don't think anyone is fooling themselves in believing that disapora isn't the best lightweight in the world right now inactive competition so dustin doesn't need a belt right now to prove that everyone's already calling him the best lightweight in the world so if he wants to cash in on another massive payday connors gone for at least a year before he could bludgeon him again and our scoring other seven-figure payday as the only other die out. There he can logistically face. Who would give him that kind of money. That kinda pay a relatively short amount of time. We're already into august december. Not that far away. He fights the as in december and then he moves on the troll of various. Basically this or nothing. Because of each charles and i like charles but i think does support. Wednesday fight then goes away forever. And then he's fighting is lamarcus. Then he's fighting just gage he again. Then he's writing maybe michael chandler down. The road goes away forever once once. Dustin and champion jed. What do you think what are the chances the fcc calls a ufc esque audible and goes portia de as next over the title fight. Four four out of ten. I'm getting a little more credit to it than maybe i should. And really that's just because I think he really really likes money. Because we all really like money man and the best place to get money is fighting mate. The because you're going to get a win and you're gonna get a big old payday. I think one aspect of this. That hasn't really been considered talked about for me is poised willingness to do this. Is i feel like the habib loss. Still plays a factor for because in general. He said you know. I'd like to be the champion at some point. But it's just not a big big impetus for him and to me. The only reason that kind of makes sense as he he recognizes that he is the best guy in the sport and all. He's done his lose to habib but even if he's the best lightweight active competition thing part of him so recognizes that he's not really the best lightweight in the world. 'cause abi isn't dead. He just is choosing not to compete. So i think that makes it a little more likely because because of the whole history for. But i still think he's gonna end up fighting charles oliveira because i disagree with david. I think that the ds fight absolutely still exists. If roy gets the bell media's isn't dropping to one fifty five to compete for the lightweight title. That's just never going to happen again. They more likely to fight at one. Eighty five years to fight at one fifty five and so i can handle his business. The belt that he so richly deserves later this year and then he can pick and choose his spots like sure in this world. He's the champion he's supposed to face. The neal dairy issues is on market chefs of the world. But we know that's not true. Like you have to fly guys. You're supposed to do as the champion as anyone paying attention to the sport for the last five years like he can just have the belt and they can do in. Interim title hype. Tweeden neil dare is the mock chef it will sell four paper views It will all be people from that by that paper view. They can win an interim title. It'll be great employees can go. Fight nate diaz. I know that their teammates trading partners. But i firmly believe that boy and mostert all would set aside a a teammate hood. To get that bag and no they'd be getting that bad dudes fought like i think he can just pick up the belt to pick it up and he can still do whatever the hell he wants because we haven't gotten to see yet because he has only fought connor this year. But i think we're in for the dust and foyer conor mcgregor bomb beating connor twice Doing it in fact fashion the first time and really being his asked the second time. Even with all the weirdness it surrounded. I think dustin pori could very well be like a a real paper view drawn his own white now. the next fight will determine. You know we'll see but if he's that if he's what i think he is in that he gets to call. The shots doesn't matter whether it has a belt or not. So if your dust emporia jed if the fcc called you and said yo diamond what up you pick title fight or nate. What are you picking. If you're dustin are you just going title and then you just feel that nate is just going to be there whenever you need them essentially. Yeah that's that's me i mean. Honestly there's no wrong way to eat this recent mike. Like he's gonna beat nate nate. It's going to beat him. So if he goes and fights and beats nate then he can still fight for the title. After that over he goes and wins the title. He can fight and beat nate after like his option. The only reason i would choose to take the title now is one a checks. The box is like damon. I agree. I think he is a hundred percent going to each There and so it checks the box. He no longer is an interim champion next. He is the former actual. Ucf speeded pin. And if he passes things get more interesting. If if all of air has to defend because let's say Gauge is fighting jammer theoretically new york. I know all in the air but say you fights that just engaged to beat that ass is michael. Chandler's sucks fighting at me and Just engage he will. Then beat that ass charles oliveira to I am of the opinion that just engages the best lightweight in the world. Right now Dust employees deserves that title because of the win over what is accomplished. But if you put those two dudes in a cage. Tomorrow i'm vic engaged. Beat him and if he waits he might not come back all very he might come back to a much more difficult style matchup because if he waits and then he gets injured now now beats nate. Okay now he's not fighting till the end of next year for the belt by that time. Shit maybe as a mock grachev. Who's the champion. Maybe it's just engaged like those are hard hard fights and i don't know that the appeals to say thank you pick up the bill right now and as is always gonna be there. Damon do grew. Jed that poor on his own could be a box office draw because of the connor rub like has he ought gotten that. Because there's certain guys that have a laura. We'll we'll dive into nate and his lawyer in a matter of moments but doesn't hasn't done a lot of media since he'd be conor mcgregor i know he's matured and he's kind of let go of what he feels is the less important part of the game. He wants to go in there and train and fight. Dudes isn't wanna do media interviews but is that maybe a mistake here coming off that went over. Connor like should have kind of gotten out there a little bit more and built his name even more so or was winning and was winning. That fight enough. I think the mystique of what does has done. This year is enough for him. He doesn't really need to say much. At this point. He destroyed connor back in january and he seemed like he was on his way to really destroying dismantling connor. A second time with a broken leg. Connor coming unhinged since the fight going after everybody you know from dc to being you know pretty much anybody and everybody. He's not going to fight. I think dustin could just sit back and relishes victory knowing. He's got one over on conor mcgregor. Conor mcgregor is fighting this war for deported because worry got him twice and on the gregor going lunatic has pretty much proved appointed a beat him and beat him to the point where we're not sure what kind of connor is gonna come back from that broken leg So i think as a perfect position right now where he gets the call the shots. He's in a weird position where he's not the champion but he really does get to call the shots right now..

But you know when you talk about ardian islam. I feel like this is going to have to tell us. Honestly who's in line. I know it's hard to say when you've got guys like chandler engaged in fighting but when islam fights. Rda right in for all the fights is slumped wanted a role for all the fights aren't the will have wondered if he gets past islam right. That'll be tuna. Roll back at one fifty five after being successful about one seventy now you gotta start to consider whether or not this guy gets another shot at the title so i truly believe that this is going to be a number one. Contender's fight because chandler just fought for the bill gates. You just fought for the belt against bp and if you're looking to get new fresh matchups you gotta start to kind of look at rda versus islam fight and think one of these guys has to show me like that. They deserve a championship opportunities craigslist. It's such a tough division and it's actually a division with stars that are beyond the champion and we used to seeing that usually when a guy like charles oliveira wins the championship. You're not talking about. Who's next in the pecking order. Feeling this way about them. With this type of excitement this type of reverence this type of understanding of okay. This guy could be the next champion. This guy could hold the bill. But that's probably because. I think people are still kind of disrespected charles over one hundred. Normally when you gotta champion you. Don't go this guy. Maybe a few champ. This guy's maybe a future jam right. I think people are living in what they saw from. Charles and the past not the charles oliveira of today and i know we solving vegas. You big charles. Very winning hundred. Yeah you know. Every every guy that walked off the stage. It'd be honest. Because i was thinking to myself as a former football player guy walks around over two hundred pilots. Could i take that were. This dude is five. Seven cannot and charles walks up if you've never been close to them you don't understand how wide shoulders on why how long his arms are. But i want. I want to tell you this the dc. You never get another chance or a second chance to make a first impression. Yup right we saw charles oliveira struggle earlier. We not be able to handle adversity. And i think for so many people even though you come back after a bad first round against chandler and get the knockout. It's so hard to forget those things and that's what we are. I thought i thought that. But i thought that and i know we were talking about islam. Rda but now we're on the. I know we're on the champ. Not but the thing about all for me was that because of what he did because of him bouncing back in showing that in that adversity he was able to dig through. Overcome to become the champion shows the maturity. But i get what you're saying about first impressions meet a lot lately. It's hard to make people forget of the times that got beat by so many guys we're dealing with a different human being right absolutely and who ever is going to step across the octagon with them. We'll have their hands full. But first we look to you to sixty seven. Because that's going to be a fantastic fight between those shifts. Nosql is going to be a great fight. That's the fight. I think that islam needs justified it. Rda wanted this either puts islam on the map or rda back on a map. So it's gonna be a treat going to be a fantastic fighting on last weekend right. We had usc we had bela tor. We had bare knuckle..

"Just don't have the low forward anymore does it. For you had gone out and beat conor mcgregor twice the most popular. Ufc fighter in the history of fighting. And you know what he's saying as usual he said you know what man. I really don't like this joke. No more. I just do it. Because i'm good at it. I scrap because i got hand. Have you ever heard of man say that. I must step into africa. I'm standing across another. Do that is crazy enough to let me torture them in his face. But i really tripping on it. I don't love it like that. But these right here. So official i gotta keep giving this guy and he gets his opportunity to step up against charles oliveira. He's going to do that. Holds the belt in the air. And i believe as long as to be metal doesn't come back and fight. He's going to hold that built for a long time. Jaanus probably wait it again. James eight going win it the rams nocco get out the nfc so wrong role but the dude in the middle has his own show by the way. Check out dc and rc. Espn.

So yeah, so that's that's going on. Let's talk about Conor McGregor. What's next for Conor McGregor? Like I well first of all, let's talk about the destination. I honestly think Dustin Poirier Michael Chandler winter flights Oliveira, that should be the way it goes. No, no, wait a minute, you said? Okay. Yep. Forte vs. Michael Chandler novel they both won last week the winner by Charles Oliveira. What are you are you rolling a joint? What are you doing? Oh, I was texting my brother. Thought I liked you better on the podcast like this just look down and be occupied. All right, so we need dog. You gotta watch yourself because it's already people with one arm on a knock you out. There's other people saying it I'm going to give you the lineup of people. I think it's right. There should be Ferguson vs Sugar. It should be gaethje vs Chandler McGregor versus Diaz Poirier vs, Alabama. She coming off a loss and Chandler win. So why wouldn't you go to guys off of when and and also all of them ranked 5th? So now you now you got V now because those guys lost he has he gets moved up Albert deserves a shot and you know it everybody knows it. I think yeah, I so often those. I'll tell you those are my like if I can if I can set up the fights, I think that Ferguson and hooker good fight in Chandler beastmode McGregor and get everybody wants to see that shit again. And then I think this time I think this time McGregor really got some shit to prove so it won't it'll be a different fight our parents just a fucking he's just a beastman off. I would like to see if I could deal with his ground game. I just don't think he can I don't think for him deal with his brown. Okay, that motherfucker is the truth. Window, what do you think? Well, fortunately for Charles Oliveira the UFC does not want them anywhere near a title shot because he just is not going to sell any pay-per-views..
