"But Barack Obama knew when he was the president, I'm also representing black people. And he took that Trayvon looks like me and everybody should have them for that. That could have been my kid. John won't do that. John won't say it's black history month. Can we do something that John won't do that? He's not interested. Unfortunately, he's like the best fighters that's ever lived. But you can't help a person who's doesn't care. And as we've seen now, especially on social media, there are more John Jones walking this earth. Oh, 100%. Like, we've seen this born Jason whitlock, John's not on that level. But we've seen people, we saw a tweet the other day. My man said, why are we talking about this late? The slave owners that were good to their slaves. Motherfucker, he owned people. Tweeted the week. He was like, yo, you know, he had to keep him fed and keep him happy. Do you understand slave mentality? This is a black man on Twitter saying this. Are you nuts? Right. Then the picture came out. In the Scooby-Doo and you Scooby and you look like an idiot. But there's so many more people that like Andrew Tate that hate black women. It's like there is a, it's so strange that this culture has been fostered, but here we are. John Jones. They hate black women. They're strong women in this black women in the strong black women. And then you listen to them talk and it's like, how can you support Andrew Tate? If anybody hasn't watched the vice documentary on Angie taya suggest you do so. A lot of people are like, I don't want to learn about injury. Just do it. Because when you watch it, you be like, really? And then you see Al Joe and Jamal hill and Bobby green are like free educate. There are plenty of other people to free the other than Andrew Tate. They don't know any of them. Again, I like Al Joe. He just should be smarter than that. We've talked to Al Joe on this show. We talked out on the show, talking about the scenes of talking for years. He should be smarter than that. Yeah, it's like Angie hill and that's it. In terms of the environment of the UFC and they do this like black fighters aside, each strips you from reality of those things going on in your community. It kind of like we talked about like you had to grace hate yourself for their culture. It simultaneously strips you. From the reality of your previous culture outside of them. Look at Amanda Nunes. Yeah. Gay champion. Pride Month is they do anything? No. This car moves. Go down the list. They work really hard to strip you. Of your culture and your identity becomes, I'm a UFC fighter. Yes, I'm a company man. And that's it. That's your identity. You we barely got like the Nigerian saying, I'm Nigerian. That was big. And kamaru painted his face and coming out with flags. And I'm like, oh, no flags. They strip you of not even just your individuality. They strip you of that culture and make you just be part of theirs. And the best part about this is, are there any black fighters who listen to this podcast? They'll feel slighted by us by saying that. For the most part, they'll be like, no, I'm not like that. I'm not saying you're like that. I'm saying you're in that culture where all the opportunities I said that you can represent, you can't. Because they stripped you of it. Now you have to do it because you want to get paid. But you are not allowed to be you. You think you are? Keep going up that ladder. And then try it. Say, hey, Dana, can you invite Ben crump to a fight? Let's see what happens. Barack Obama, he ain't been invited no fights, but Donald Trump, he'll be there, but Donald Trump is also like pro wrestling mentality, so I get it. Yeah. Donald Trump is the worst greatest story of pro wrestling infiltrating politics that I've ever said desantis or someone weird. What's the gun lady? If she's invited to some shit. But I'm saying Ted Cruz will probably show the fight, but they're not inviting. That's a Jorge moss at all, invite. Right. Jorge Masvidal became this massive star. Is it surprising that he wears like Trump face masks and talks about Trump all the time? Cole be Covington. Where else can I gimmick work in a work in the NBA? No. Where's the end of freedom doing these days? Yeah. Talking about LeBron on Fox, stop. You can't do that shit anywhere else. But the UFC is okay to do that. You can be that person can't be this part of the culture. So yeah, it's interesting to, again, it's cool to have that quick aside. It wasn't quick. No, it was a conversation. Sorry y'all looking for predictions. That's such for us covering it. And for those who are fans of the sport, we see other sports preaching equality. At least trying to go and take these steps. Let's be performative about it. Some things. Something because you never know if you're even performative, how that's going to affect those who are not performative. Yeah. Like, will Amanda then say, I'm not coming out with a Brazil flag. I'm coming out with the rainbow colors. Right. And everything. Because I now feel comfortable because you're fake comes look like if you can empower me to do so. Can you come out with like the fist or something? Like a fighter could win the title and put the fist in the air. Open a culture to truly express yourself and have freedom of speech. Right now you can express yourself if you agree with the culture and

"Places and situations looking at your fight record is not like you fought like a ton at home or in the states even fought in Japan, Russia, South Korea, Guam, Philippines. You're used to fighting in places. A lot of your opponents haven't been. You've been traveling all over the world to get to where you are. What does that path been like for you? Because one thing people don't know is this isn't the traditional path to getting to the UFC. You didn't just fight in a local promotion and everything. You took your show on the road. What has that been like for you and how is that? Like, made your journey here even more special. That's why I gained the most experience and be able to fight guys like Ronnie and Timur that if that's where I got the attitude from because when someone's with an organization's flying you out, they're not flying you out to fight no chuck. You know they're flying you out to fight a guy that's worth paying a couple thousand for someone to fly out and fight. So I was always fighting these toughest guys from all these all these countries. And yeah, definitely gain a lot of experience. You don't fight in the element territory. Getting booed when you're winning, you know, a lot of different things going to affect like, yeah, people are going to say you have 8, I have 8 losses. But I got 5 decisions and losses, and those are an enemy territory. I won those fights. If I was to ever post those fights or play those fights, you guys will go crazy and say I want those fights, you know? The best part about why I'm able to let those fights go is because I still made it to the big leagues. And I get to take that experience with me. You know, that's the only reason why those fights get to get put in a pass right now. But if I never made it to the big leagues and I had those fights, there will be there will be horrible calls, man, the judges are not always the best, fighting the enemy territory. If I made you guys watch 5 of those fights, you can easily give me 5 of those decisions fight. You might give me all 5, but I guarantee you'll give me four. I guarantee you guys will give me four. And if you give me four of those fights, me and my own neck and neck, we're not getting that. That's nothing. You know who else had like a bunch of split decision losses and ended up coming up in his career? Jorge Masvidal. Yeah, there was a time after it all couldn't win a split decision to save his damn life. I didn't want to click crazy just because of the enemy territory, man. Man, you're getting booed people when you're doing something good in Korea or Japan and you're winning. You're getting booed. You line a kick, it's a hard kick. No reaction. The guy lands a soft comeback kick and they're like, oh, like it's the biggest thing in the world. So any territory is definitely definitely hard, harder, maybe to impress the judges you might want to see because the judges are not really on your side, the promotion is not really on your side. So that's when it gets tough, but as far as me bringing my skills to the table and being prepared for some of those fights, like I was fighting the best guys ever since, like, I was fighting the top guys ever since, man, that's what I've been doing, you know? A lot of guys probably want to be more smart or whatever, but man, you can't be the best of the B team, man. You got to be the best at the a team. So I'm trying to be the best of the 18 bro, no matter where it goes. Even fighting Ronnie or someone and then I was to get let go. I can go back and whoop on a couple more guys and I'll be right back because I've been touching that real level, the true level, not the level where you're taking these B level boys and then they're whipping on you and then you go out and you still get whipped on. I'm confident that I'm going to have top notch experience going into this fight I already have and finding someone like him is going to give me even more experience. So it's a great opportunity no matter what. I have to ask you about your UFC debut where, again, TKO, amazing debut, it's now a no contest because it happened during the time where the sport was still testing for marijuana. And they were stripping wins. We just saw Nate Diaz fight. And they rolled up in the post fight press conference, smoking after a win. The testing has changed so much in two years. Do you feel like one, they should kind of give you your win back. Like, do you feel like, yo, 'cause I noticed. So they changed the rule three months after my win, three months after. Like, how are you gonna change that three months after and still order gets me like somebody should be fighting with me? That's what I'm fighting for me. That's what I feel. Like someone like my team, my people were not gonna go in a cry about it. The world saw what happened. I was on 34 hours notice. They called me Wednesday night.

"You let me think. They'll probably, I'm just guessing. As the headliner, you know who's on the free ESPN. Who was their guy? Greg Hardy. They tried it with him. They did the same thing. He fought twice on the contender series. Really didn't have much of a background. Right. But it was very similar. Very similar, but very hard. He's facing Jamie Pickett, by the way. That's who it is, Jamie Pickett, Jamie Pickett needs a win. It's not going to get it. But he's not bad. No, he's not that at all. That's one hell of a test. There's no soft touches in the UFC. There's not. It's hard to bring in someone who's doing it. The complicated thing is like, I wouldn't want them to O'Malley Bo nickel. Like Sean O'Malley's getting a shot against Peter John. Which is still, it's the most bizarre thing to me. When Paige and munoz and cheetah and all those guys still exist, for real, I don't want them to do that to bow. Bows only had two fights, let them get some fights. Not squash matches, but slow claim up the ladder. Yeah. You know, if I 15, then if I ten, then you fight 7, then you fight three, then you fight for the title. Something like that. If you move them too fast, it's inevitable that he may get caught by somebody. Especially in the middleweight division as a Israel Sanya. Seemingly Hamza Maia. Drastically. As I always say, I don't know how he's going to react. I want to get punched in the mouth. It hasn't happened yet. You got to get punched in the mouth. We had to see how I get punched in the mouth. Repeatedly. Gilbert burns punched him in the mouth a lot. Yes. And then I was like, all right, he's for real. People wanted him to mow Gilbert burns down. I was like, nah, I want to see what happens when he has to deal with some resistance. And we haven't seen Bo do that yet. Maybe we'll see that in December, but dudes, the dudes on the path. MMA is just such a wildly unpredictable sport, though. Bo could be that guy, and then just slept in a fight. Yeah. I mean, look at O'Malley. O'Malley just jumped to fighting this upcoming month. The former champion just lost. Arguably the strongest guy in the bantamweight division. And if he wins that shit, you're like, well, what is shown O'Malley? MMA is wild. It's a weird to that point where you mentioned it. Alex Pereira, like he's three fights in the UFC? Yeah. He's in the title shot. I mean, the only thing girl has, man though, he had so many years on this combat experience. Like he's been punched in the face. Right. He's been doing he did glory. As prayer has been around a long time. Yeah, so I understand that. Yeah. Bo, you just got here. Literally two fights on the contender series. That's all you got. Everyone else has been punched in the face somewhere. And it was funny looking at, I believe it was remind these interviewer Jorge Masvidal earlier this year where mass what I was like talking about how Bo Nichols basically rag doll in his ass in the gym. Before Bo was really on the scene or even known, but he was like just talking about it. Those training camp stories are real. People don't really lie about getting beat up in camp. No. And match with all a guy with that much chutzpah would be the last one to be like somebody beat my ass in camp. He was like, bone nickel was kicking my ass. And now he's a pro, so that was a problem. I see, I saw people upset about how that is. One 85. One 70 would be so great for him. I'd like one 85 'cause we need some new juice there. At some point where I saw prayer, there are about to fight. Robert Whittaker is still hanging around. Homs looks like if he moves 85, it's this thing at 70. He's got a date probably with Bora cinna with Paul Costa. And then it's like, after that, middleweight is kind of weak. Yeah. It won't take too long for Bo Nicola to run up that ladder. Damn him versus Colby. Yeah, you might be right. I don't know. There's levels to this wrestling show. There is, but so like, yeah, you have to see. When you look at it, it's going to be interesting. So that's the first fight announced with the Vegas card. That Vegas card is going to be a fun one. I'm sure, and then this weekend's card, though. I figured we'd just give a couple of predictions. How about we just talk about this is what slavery is, right? So it's questionable. Let me explain this because people who don't understand. This is basically a lights out card, no media, no fans. Been reported by the time this show is out, maybe we'll learn more. Mark Zuckerberg seemingly has bought out the UFC apex and is hosting is having the card for him and I guess his friends. No one really knows because there's reports that could be like some metaverse shit. Whatever it is. Whatever it is, imagine Mark Zuckerberg going to
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"The towards the end or after the fight said that they were basically writing Leon's obituary. And to a larger extent, I think the UFC has been writing as obituary for a long time. 7 years ago, he lost to us men. He's won 7 fights since he had the no contest against them. Bala Muhammad with an eye poke unfortunate, but man, Leon has had a streak of bad luck. He beats an 8 Diaz, but all anyone can talk about is that he got caught with a shot and was on queer street towards the end of the fight. He has Bala Muhammad he gets the eye pokey gets shit for that. He gets into a little tiff with Jorge Masvidal Masvidal sucker punches him and busts him open and now all of a sudden Leon to no fault of his own total gentleman just gets punched in the face. They turn him into a meme, three piece and a soda. I feel bad for the guy because he has been getting a raw deal. He's had multiple fights canceled. Now he's in finally gets in with usman. He's getting killed for the first four rounds. He's way behind. And he no, no, I gotta correct you. He won the first round, but go ahead. Good, he won that first round. We're good. He was way behind. Tide was coming in. And then you tweeted this out, sorry, put it on Instagram, and it was perfect. When we had him on the show, if you haven't seen the interview, please go back and check it out. We talked about how you talked about how Nate Diaz hit him with a shot by using a tactic that you referenced Jersey Joe Walcott would distract and he distracted Ezra Charles with a little pull up of his shorts and then clipped him and Leon was listening and he was like, yeah, I never heard of them, but I'm gonna go back and watch that. Well, it was like he listened to everything you said. And I don't know if usman's been thinking about boxing matches with he's always calling out Jake Paul. He's calling out Canelo and his boxing look nice, but when he fell for the boxing trick as Leon to like a throwaway jab at him, usman correctly for boxing, slipped his head to the right of the jig. Tweeted that I tweeted that. Yeah, exactly. I think you read my tweet kid. Oh yeah, yeah, no, you said he's out of this highlighting what you said. And that way he did. I thought his boxing, I thought his boxing pedigree or teaching, and he's gotten good teaching. And he's improved tremendously striking. He has been. But I thought that it hurt him. It betrayed him. It ambushed him. Because as you were just saying, and as I tweeted, and you would just say I just want to say, you tweeted this out and told him exactly what Nate did to him and he basically did the same thing to usman and moved him right into the kick and obviously starched them with the high kick. But with that, obviously, you pointed all this stuff on. I'm just highlighting what was seen with that take it away. Listen, can you set it right? You set the table and usman was set in a table with the jab. He was doing a great job striking, travel Whitman, his former he was a former boxing trainer, and now he's a big MMA coach, our big UFC striking coach MMA striking cons. Does a great job. Does a great job. But I thought his boxing degree actually, again, betrayed him, and hurt him. Because when I throw away left hand came at him, he slipped his head to his right to get away from it. The way that you would. It boxing. But he forgot to do saint boxing. So this is MMA. This is you I've seen specifically, and as kicks the worry about. And he moved his head to get away from what he thought was a punch and was a throwaway punch, but he forgot all about. So the kick. So his box in his concentration on boxing and his level of learning boxing to the lovely eyes actually hurt him. It actually, you know, took him down to a certain degree. And added to his demise in this area. And I take nothing away from Trevor, Trevor Whitman, not that away. I respect them. He's a good guy. He does a great job. I already said that. But in the corner, he was telling him, you could hear it. He was telling him to do more striking, not more, you know, grappling more on the floor to concentrate on the striking. And the one thing when he said that, that's what a boxing coach would say, there's no doubt about it. But I might have wanted to hear the voice of an MMA coach in there too. Maybe. And again, take nothing away from him. He's doing his job from a banking standpoint. And he's done a great job, and he's improved them. And he's won with him. I'm just saying that at that point I might have wanted Ken and MMA voice too. Because the MMA voice might have said, no, no, no, no. Keep on the floor. Kill time. You can't lose except by knockout. And the best chance of being knocked out is standing. Not being submitted on the mat. So an MAA coach might have said the opposite of a boxing coach. He might have said, I want you to kill the clock. I want you to keep him on his back. And if that's the way we end it, fine. You earned the fight. You weren't the right to do that. That's just finish up here. And get the win and get out of here. And but he's competitive. I get it. And I think a part of what conspired against uzman also. Was that he got overconfident. You know, I always talk about this, Ken. I want a guy calm. You got to be, you got to become calm

"I can't phrase it as them being in trouble. 'cause the hardcore's are going to continue to buy the pay per view numbers aren't shitty, right? Javonte just got championed for doing 240 pay per view buys. Right. If a UFC card did 240,000 pay per view bought as Dana White would jump off the stratosphere. So their floor is like four 50. And then you go up from there like really good cards through 8 5900 monster cars do one point something. So they're not hurting, but in terms of what they were in popularity and buzz, it's not the same. that's because Connery fight, right? But you can't just have one Connor. They always had Connor, Rhonda. They always had even Johnny. He's not the biggest draw, but fuck he gained some like momentum and traction in terms of name value. D.C., at least had some name value, Habib towards N had some name value. We don't have anyone named that. Jorge Masvidal is the biggest fighter they have fight in the past four months. Yeah, so I guess I mean, if you're looking at it in mainstream appeals, and sure, like Tana's not fighting in Ghana's hurt, master doll lost, we don't know. But stop in the fight, he fights international fight week. He fights at two 76, which that'll do fine. I mean, there's not a crossover star, but that also means you're not spending a lot of money to make these cards happen. Right? Without Connor, you save a lot of money. Pocketing dough. You get extra, you get a few 100,000 extra pay per views when kind of fights, but you save in a few million when Connor fights. Yeah. So I don't know if necessarily in a downswing. I think like this card specifically, it's not when you're going to convince a casual fan to watch. You're going to be like, hey, watch your and go over to Sarah and I'm going to be like fucking what? Why? They don't know what we're still fighting. That's what they're going to say. Go over to still fight. Yeah, and I mean, in this card also has the fight of the year, probably the best women's fight we've ever seen, the rematch between Wales and Jay check. And then you have the arguably the most dominant champion in the UFC in Valentina Shevchenko, so really good car. But the UFC has made it that way where there ain't no more Connors. We don't want that shit to happen. We want you to pay for the UFC, not for the fighter. So they're not in a downswing for themselves, but for anybody that's like, where's the big blockbuster UFC? It ain't happening right now. You just get these really, really good shows. That's it. With that being said, does it happen again? Well, they allow another fuck no. Sean O'Malley's a closest thing that they got to it right now. Shell O'Malley, but Sean O'Malley has to win. There's no country for Sean O'Malley. Don't need to be white. He ain't like all American white. So like white people really Ian cowboys white. White people ain't fucking with O'Malley, like you think white people. Okay, let O'Malley rack up some victories and knock some people out. Like, O'Malley. Not bad for pal. But top 5 in the vision O'Malley, you think is like white people are getting behind them. And kids, yes. O'Malley's got O'Malley's got a different kind of grip on people, right? The gaming helps. The gaming helps his look helps. He's like a fucking troll if you just look at him. Like tekashi, 6 9. Exactly. That that dude he'll be fine. But he'll be controlled by Dana White, right? I don't think Dana will allow him to get out of control like Connor did. Connor was the unhitched trainer. That motherfucker just went rolling off the tracks and did whatever the hell he wanted. He was like, I'm gonna go fight. I'll run over this person. Run over that turret. I'll smack an old guy at a bar. That's what Connor ended up doing. That's not going to happen again. I don't think there's going to be another star like that in the UFC. That's by design. That's not because they can't make one because it can. But it's by design. They're not going to allow somebody to become that big. Interesting. Because to me that damn near puts a cap on what the UFC is, right? Because they've gotten to this level because they had Connors. 'cause they've had Rhonda's. To then cap and say, no, we don't want anyone to get bigger than us again. It's like, I mean, but you don't because what the UFC has spent the entirety of everything doing is like, remember, Dana White didn't want women in MMA. Shit just happened. It took off. Like Connor is an accident because anybody who comes close to that kind of kind of stardom, they have to control it, right? So they kind of just got out of control. To the point where Ariel helwani just talked about on the MMA or the Connors like talking about not coming back until 2023. Remember you said you'd be back in the year? Spotify and coming back to 2023. Partially because I think he still wants to fight an 8 Diaz, he might be skirting a fight when masked with all this. This all kinds of reasons why, but he's made so much money he don't need to fight. Nope, you have to keep people poor and hungry so they keep fighting. So you're not going to make somebody that big the nose they're worth and then controls their narrative. So would it behoove them to find another superstar? Yeah, but as long as it's Dana White's best friend and doesn't get out of control, then it's fine, but I don't think they're money makes everyone get out of control. Right. Well, they don't pay them. Money makes everyone get out. Yeah, so if you keep them poor and hungry and barefoot in the kitchen, like they used to say of women back in the day. If you do that to the fighters, they're just going to do enough to make sure they can put some shoes on their feet. You know, they're not going to be having goals or like being on and whiskys and shit like that. You don't want that shit to happen. Never again. Nope. No more going out there and fighting top name boxers. No, man. Dana's worst nightmare. You know, the funny thing. So Dana went out there and said, I don't want to do boxing, boxing is broken. So it's such a broken business. And I talked to Oscar De La Hoya and Oscar is just like, ah, I tried my hand at MMA. That shit didn't work. No shit. Do you want to know why? Because you're in two different sports. It's like Roger Goodell coming to Major League Baseball. I was like, I can fix this. It's not how this shit works. You know your sport stick to it. The only commonalities there is a ball. The ball looks different. MMA is like it's fighting, but it's not the same. Boxing and MMA, they're just not the same. You got to treat them different. So Dan is saying it's broken. It's not broken the boxing. It's broken to you because you can't control all the belts. Yep. I get a clue. Shit. All right, so UFC two 75 pay per view. First, shout out. Andre fiallo is fighting here again. Neither of you know three fights Agos a month. Knocked out quick. He's got work to do. Yeah, like he has a law since he's just been running through people here in the UFC. He wasn't playing. 5 gig Matthews. On this on the prelim card, fuck it, I'm picking fear all he'll get just for the sake of the podcast. Just letting that be out there. But on the main card, looking at the main card, granted, I lost what, Robert, Whitaker, marvel Victoria, along the way. But.

"There's always been an element of doubt with Connor and that's kind of played into the hype into the festivities, but when he emerged victorious, it added to the mystique. Now since he's not emerging victorious as often, other than it's against a washed cowboy Cerrone, that mystique really doesn't seem to be as strong now. That's all you need. Again, his best fight? Probably against Jorge Masvidal. Because maybe he could be masculine. Maybe he doesn't muscle it all. Four round territories. It's the classic name on card versus and they won't. Yeah. You could also get tapped out. But you got a good 50 50 chance. So like him and Jorge is like a good 50, 50 fight. He goes against he goes against kamaru. He's dead. As a human being. But we all love sanctioned violence here. I don't know if I want to see that. And that's kamaru for some reason. Deciding to come in and be like, I'll stand up with you for a second and get caught. But tomorrow's not stupid. Once that bell ring, you can say whatever you want. You could say I'm the most boring fighter. Tomorrow is like, I've cleaned out this division, not once. Yeah, I am an incredible wrestler, and this guy's my hands have gone for wrestling. And my hands have gotten way better. So I don't think he even tries on the feet. He wouldn't bother. It's down on the ground. The guy has no submission defense. When Habib got when Habib clipped him around, what was around three when he tagged him hard? That was his, he was a toy with him. He was basically showing, oh, I actually can box. And I'm going to take a quick look at this..

"Like I heard they're on an investigation for that because there's a Trump supporter sucker punching a guy. Right. And the thing is, is that if Colby doesn't press charges, moss doesn't keep doing that. Masala is in a key that's going up. Everywhere you fucking shows up with 5 guys and punching Colby in the head. Or anybody else that he makes mad. If Kobe doesn't press charges, anyone else he pisses off. Well, no, he can just then come up free shine, you know? So he kind of has to do that. And the thing about Colby is, look, Kobe is a great fighter, but he's an athlete first. He was a two time all American wrestler, Oregon. He's a tough guy, he's a great athlete. Jorge Masvidal, I believe is a fighter first. He grew up fighting in the streets in Kimbo Slice his backyard. It's not, I don't think Kobe's going around wanting to fight people on the streets. I'm sure he's gotten into plenty of scraps in his life. But he doesn't go out looking for fights. Not that mask would all does, but it's just different. And I don't understand what Masvidal was thinking. Nor does he care, because now I think the UFC might cut him. He might lose sponsors. Let's go find somebody. Maybe, I mean, the UFC does not look. In the last month, the UFC has had Cain Velasquez shoot somebody, right? The wrong person. I mean, he was justified. He was justified. Justify, but it's not great for us with UFC because all you see is UFC fighter shoot somebody, right? Then you had John Jones who was their champ. You know, getting arrested headbutting police cars. And crying, then you have Chael Sonnen beating up 6 people at a hotel room. One of them was a female. I heard Chelsea version of it. It's the whole thing sounds insane. I hope you guys can get in trouble. I love chair, but that's awesome. Hey, hey. What difference does it make it a female involved? Or is she get the fuck out of the way back up to with that homo swimmer? It proves there's no difference between male and female, especially when this Jackson broad can't give a difference to woman or female, and also they're so different. All right, that is the Don fry opinion on the podcast. That is the Don fry opinion. But the point is, is that not a good look. Then Conor McGregor also got his car taken away for dangerous driving. I don't even know what that even means in Ireland. So now you've got and now you have Colby Covington punching people at restaurants. This is not been a good month PR watch. I mean, not Colby. You have mastered all punching COVID. Right. Not a good look for the UFC. I had heard there was Connor's car head butted John Jones first, though. So that's.
The Corner
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on The Corner
"Signed a new deal. Yeah. To get B he's lost three in a row now. How many fighters you know lose three fights in a row and sign a new lucrative deal, making them allegedly the top three highest pay fires in UFC. What are we doing? You could have gave that money to your friends, but I mean, neither here nor there. I mean, I just don't understand the logic in it because I said this on the last show, he beat Ben Askren, who should have lost a Robbie Lawler, then he then asked me to lost the Damian Maya, got bounced out of the UFC and got knocked out by Jake Paul. That's who Ben Askren is. Okay, you're keeping that on the resume. But that's what it was. Nate Diaz hadn't beat anybody aside from he beat Anthony Pettis, but he'd be kind of McGregor in 2016. Yeah. He short noticed. Very glorified journeyman. Sure. He beat Darren till. Who has since gone one in four barely getting by a Kelvin gas? These aren't big wins for mass when I get a new contract. He's not a title contender. He shouldn't even be ranked in the top ten. But the fact remains is that his three losses are two to the champ and one to the number one contender. Those three losses that he just had, right? Yes, he got knocked out by usman, and he won one round against usman in the one round on one scorecard. And then he got knocked out. And against Covington, how many Rousey win? One round on, I think, one, maybe two scorecards. Yeah, I know you got ten 80 in the round, too. You got ten hated, which is kind of weird. Like, I didn't think. I mean, you got dominated. He got wrestled, but he wasn't like in position to actually lose the fight in my opinion. But either way, he's getting a top three paid fighter, like what I've said. Is he after this? Yeah, I think how you lose against kamaru was lights out, getting knocked out. But losing this one, I think his fans justify like, oh, you're a punk for just wrestling. Colby. It's ridiculous. But that's still enough for casuals to be like, oh, that's whack. Like wrestling, you just wrestled him. The first usman fight, then they critique him for a foot stomping? Yeah. And they're like, who's mine? You just foot stopped. He's like, all right, cool, wait. Hold on. Knocked him out. Hold this. So let's start this backwards when we start talking about their futures. Mastodon Conor McGregor. Yeah, that's the fight. To be fair, any journeyman. Your flight is Connie McGregor Conor McGregor. Jorge Masvidal, Conor McGregor for the fictional BMF title. I want to do that. Sure. Because Connor doesn't need to be anywhere near the title shot. Maxwell is definitely not. Conor McGregor's, he looks like he's too big for lightweight. He needs to fight a whale's way. That gets Connor the next welterweight title shot. If he beats Moscow. No, by the way, it doesn't. He skips the line completely. No, he does. He does not come out. He does not. I think he jumps. No, he doesn't. He doesn't. Not beating Mastodon does nothing for anybody right now. I'm just letting you know the star power of Connor and maseed Darwin might jump. No. I think he jumps Islam tomorrow if he wants to. Which is also ridiculous. It's all bad. But that's the fight to make his basketball McGregor. That's it. There is no other fight that's in the welterweight division. For Masvidal, that he can win. Like he gets beat. Oh, that he can win. Yeah. He can beat Connor. Because the largely stand up possibly. Right? He can't be Gilbert burns. Connor's pretty fucking good still, I think if he gets his head on straight. But the fact is it's going to be a stand up fight. Yeah, it's fine. Right. If bodes well for both of them, it's exciting for that reason. You're paying them both a ton of money. So just put them on the same card, loser goes home or whatever you want to call it. Because if that's what all loses, at least you cash that with a tremendous pay per view. If you put Mastodon in there against Gilbert burns has already booked for Hezbollah, you can't put them in there with Covington. There is Vicente Luque. Beat some Bala Muhammad beat them. But that's not a bad fight for him. But it's bad if he loses to somebody that it's not like a main event fight, right? You gotta put him in there with a stakes. And the stakes are fictional, BMF title, Conor McGregor. That's a huge fight that sells pay per views. You can't put them in there with anybody else. Sean Brady. You can't put him. That's what all you can not put in there with anybody else. It won't sell. Yeah. You don't want them to go against wonder boy. Wonder boys two losses in a row too though. Yeah, but you don't like a stand up battle that wonder boy is a better striker than master at all. Yeah. So you need guys who are going to be main event and Connor can't fight everyone. It's either there's two fights, Connor and ADS. That's it. No, how about I throw this at you? What if you fight Nick?.
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"That he's a fantastic grappler that he's a fantastic wrestler. We've seen him in there with Jack Hermanson and in our wrestle a larger, supposed to have been a larger guy and of not being in the wrestling match, but I think that his grappling in that fear of the grappling and wrestling is very similar to the Colby Covington Jorge Masvidal situation, does open up a striking. I can promise you this Gilbert burns does not give one shit about my grappling because he's gonna be right there with him the entire time. So if he can beat a guy like that, I think a Colby Covington fight is right there for him. But I think we can't put the car before the horse here. I think he's got to get through a guy like Gilbert burns first. And there's a fear in the unknown. And the mystery here does lie, which email. We don't actually know. How is he going to do with adversity? Well, probably pretty well, but we've seen how Colby does with it. How is jamiah going to do in championship rounds, four and 5? Probably pretty good, but we know how Colby's gonna do with it. So I do think at a full respect, we do have to say that Covington is still the guy to beat. If you just look at styles and match ups, we've seen so little of chimaev, we know he's got a good double-A, but we know Colby's never been taken down in a double leg. So it does tend to kind of equal themselves out and I'm not really to give anybody that's only had two matches against unreal components, the nod over the troop number one contender, but it all fairness, that's probably the match. And Kamaru Usman wait on that about two hours ago. Dana White had made a comment that chemia versus burns will be a number one contendership. Then the champ spoke up and he said, not so fast. This guy's got my attention when I got to deal with them. I'll be ready for him. However, I need to see him beat two guys that are ranked within the top ten. That's fair. And if that does hold up and gets the bump on Gilbert, which he's favored to do, I think that does make the Covington chimayo match all that more likely and possibly only Colby's only route back to a Kamaru Usman championship fight. Let me throw this in there because we're talking about the right guy. We're talking about the top guys we're talking about. The guys don't want to talk about Covington. All right, but let me ask about Masvidal. 37 years old made a lot of money in the last couple of years. You know, you had that first flight rules, but we had data white over barrel a little bit where the opponent fell out because of COVID at the last minute. They needed a big name. He was able to get a pretty damn good number from what we want to understand. Rightfully so, you guys should make all the money in the world. When you guys get in the ring and it's a chance you don't come out of that octagon. Definitely the same as your wedding. So you can't get enough money. That's just the way I feel. And I feel the same way my sports about the boxes. But here he is, Masvidal. He's lost two fights in a row. Convincingly is 37 years old. He's made a lot of money, where does he go from here? And before I leave it to start with you, chill. I do it and if tell me what more, I thought that there was a lot of guys he could still beat that, you know, he was good enough, but there's certain guys he probably can. But there's a lot of good fights out or fights out there that he can still win. I didn't feel like it's the end of the line. Off the cliff, that's it. I didn't feel that way. I just felt that he was in there with a guy who's special. You'll fields. One of the greatest things that Dana White has ever done. And I've never heard him get credit for it. We'll give it to him now. But one of the great things that he ever did is within our sport, he made losing acceptable. In the sport of boxing, if you lose a fight, you're not going to be a man of end. If you lose, you'll never fight for a championship if you lose 5 fights. You are a bum, and that is how they'll remember you. In this sport, the one thing that Colby and Masvidal had in front of their sold out main event spot of T mobile arena. They both were coming off losses. In all fairness, the biggest star on our sports Conor McGregor, I've lost track of how many losses he's had in a row. The second is George manswell. He's lost three in a row and the third is Nate Diaz, who's batting 500 in all fairness and MMA for whatever reason, but it's a very good thing when iron is on iron when we know guys are risking it and guys are only taking on the best. It's okay if they come in second and I really think as far as Mazda all goes, be in the sports second biggest draw to put them in there with Conor McGregor, who's the sports biggest draw makes all the sense in the world. I even think I've got the weekend. Let's do it in July and international fight week. I love that. Wow. Wow. I'm real close. Maybe you insert a Nate Diaz in there, but I think we're down to those file three who's going to headline that show. I think it's got great options. And don't forget with this new lucrative contract. All that contract and all that money means is he will be returning to a main event, which means he needs to get himself in 5 round shape and he can start right now. And I think he needs to get himself into a little bit of controversy. That's kind of the weird spot that Masvidal is in. He can still beat a lot of guys in the division. He absolutely can, but it's got a matter for the paycheck that he's getting, the UFC does not, they're not just going to stick him in the queue and start fighting people that nobody knows. It's going to be big names. They're going to be tough fights. And I'm going to steal one of chills ideas from the weekend. I like him in there with the Diaz brother, but I think Nick Diaz is probably the bigger draw right now. I don't necessarily know if that's the route that anybody's going to go. But that's got a built in storyline. If I build itself, he already beat Nick's little brother, you know Masvidal is going to rub that in his face as many times as he possibly can. I would have never thought about that, chill brought it up over the weekend. I thought it was a fantastic idea, but those are the kind of storylines and fights that mask but I was going to have to be in because he's got to justify that big paycheck he's getting. You think that they'll put Nick in. I thought that Nick and his last fight looked like he couldn't care less like he didn't want to be there. I was shocked at the performance. And even worse than that, is the reason Nick looked that way is because he had a long layoff. So our prediction, Anthony and I were both at agreement here that Nick's gonna get a quick turnaround. It's been the opposite. Nick has been radio silent. Dana weighed in at one time was about two months ago in Dana said, and I quote, I don't know if Nick Diaz is ever gonna fight again. Generally, if you're Nick or you're Nick's manager or trainer, you come out and you stop that narrative, you say yes, we are. But Nick lived with it. He went very quiet, so I do think that's a tough one. I think that's a massive fight. I think it makes sense. And I think the fans were would get behind it. I don't know that I'm bullish that it's going to happen. And Mazda isn't a very unique spot. And it's only Mazda and Connor and Nate Diaz that live in this little island that does not matter who they fight next. In boxing they say, the only two guys that could draw on their own was Mike Tyson and Oscar De La Hoya. I think you need to amend that list and add Floyd Mayweather to it. But in all fairness, in our sports pretty much the same unless you're caught unless you're Mazda unless you're Nate Diaz. It turns out they're all in the same weight class. Let's start getting those matchups going and start having a lot of fun over here in the world of MMA. I think they're going to make Nate and Connor on Nate and Dustin. I'm here in that room. That could be. Let me just go off track a little bit here. Maybe it's more than a little bit. I don't know. What do you think about in Ghana and fury? And before I let you go, chill,.
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"Welcome to the fight with teddy Atlas presented by dynamic striking. I'm Ken ride out, joined as always by the voice of MMA and today two very good this time we actually do have the voices of MMA. I was going to say we have the fists of MMA, the real deal here. I'm joined as always by the legend teddy Atlas, and today's special guest, the bad guy himself, chill, Sonnen, and always say, call Anthony one of the nicest guys in the sport. Anthony Smith, welcome to the show, guys. It's great to meet you guys. Thank you. Yeah, thanks for having us. Yeah, for once. We really do have the voices of MMA instead of just jesting a little bit with me. But I'm so glad you guys are here. I'm Jesus berkel, which is obviously I'm still in Vegas. You guys got back home. Finally, audience can actually get a breakdown of an Emma MMA fight, a UFC fight to be exact. By real experts, my guys that actually know the in and outs of the whole universe of this sport, not just the striking part. Let me start before I chuck it to you guys. Let me start by giving my backdrop of what I expected. And again, I worked the ESPN, which you guys over the weekend. What I expected going in to a fight where Mazda door was at three to one underdog. And full disclosure, full transparency is always because honesty is obviously important if you want an audience to pay attention to your weekend and week out. I picked Masvidal. I thought it was I told you getting a good number at three to one and I reminded myself that you should never go by the odds. Either the guy is better is not the odds should never influence you to say, I'm going to make a play over here. You know, because one of our sponsors is my bookie. So we try to give the audience some kind of idea. And then, of course, sometimes I think maybe the audience has a little too much money. So I give them my idea. So we can safely some of that off. For tax purposes, of course. But I'm not blaming it on the three to one that edged me that way. I actually thought that Masvidal being in a position, obviously he's coming off of that devastating loss. I thought that was legacy for his pride. And then listening forward pride and everything. And I'm not at all suggesting it. But I just thought that for redemption purposes that he would be at his best, if he could still be at his best at 37, quite frankly. And I thought that you have a chance to control the geography of the ring. Geography of the octagon of the gate. On the outside, not alone this great great wrestler, great grappler Covington, get to his legs, make this shoot. Maybe even do a little of that creative stuff that they were asking. Although big difference as good was not near the striker that Covington is. All right, I get it. But I thought maybe Covington would make a mistake. He could get on to, you know, go for a little bit of maybe a trap, get him to reach a little bit, catch him with an uppercut, catch him maybe with another fly and he like he did ask him, but the most important thing was I thought that he could get a playing field. He being mad for the, that allowed him to strike more than get taken down. And I thought that his ace in a hole is Trump called again. Was that he was very good at escaping takedowns. Or surviving takedowns. Any proved to be. The only thing he didn't escape them somewhat. She survived them. And I didn't register in how much energy it would take them out to survive. So again, I thought that it might get a playing field where he could use the chip, uses lights a little bit, control the outside, strike more than survive. And have a chance to pull it off. I was so wrong, and here's the question to open up to you guys. Was I wrong because Covington was on the rated as a strike that I shouldn't, I should have recognized how good a striker. Well, did I overrate? Masvidal. As a striker, I mean, what happened? You start with challenge and we'll go to Anthony. Okay, it gets a little bit tricky. If you were to assess Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal prior to the fight and you came to the conclusion that Mazda was the better of the tube fires. I think you came to the right conclusion. Mazel has more experience. He has a better understanding. We do martial arts a lot of times under a belt system. Mazda would be an absolute black belt and Colby would be closer to Brown in terms of knowledge and mastering certain techniques, but it's the intangibles, guys. It's the pace. It's the volume. Colby's not doing everything right, but boy, he's doing 6 to one. Georgia has won beautiful jab. He's cross blocking the shoulders, everything's right. Colby's throwing four of this big mess, but the best defense is a good offense. So when you talk about taking George off the field or taking his tools off, it wasn't just the wrestling. It was just Colby being in his face. Colby coming across ray Colby throwing things out of making George reactive. George just reacting. He's not coming forward. That's what Colby knows so well to everybody..
The Corner
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on The Corner
"I don't know how aloe Vera uses jiu-jitsu when he's getting smothered. That's important because we've seen what Khabib has done to these guys. Charles Oliveira. Michael chev is the one guy that you look at right now is like, yeah, Susie, dude, I think he's like a -300 favorite to beat Oliveira right now. That's generous. Like to Oliveira. That's so equivalent in three points. We're being at home and then NFL. Oliveira is incredible. He's the champ. Moxie was just on a different level. There is no other fighter. I don't care what division you throw at me. Where they have a fighter that I'm like, yeah, that guy's. I mean, I love gay cheese, leg kicks and everything. But he saw against Habib. Again, I'll let shit goes out the window. Get you go, ah, you know, he might lose. To Oliveira. Is a 50 50 fight? Yeah. Depends on how it plays out. My chef, I don't see anybody beating. Because you have to have a certain style to be market chip. And I'm not sure what that is right now. So that dude. No one knows. That do mows down. He beat Bobby green. He had no business being in the octagon. And Bobby green is a damn good fighter. Yeah, Bobby was like thinking about what he was going to do in the next thing you know he's on his back and the next thing you know it stopped and Bobby's like, damn, I just wanted to, I love his court after he was like, I just want to feel like I couldn't even do anything. He doesn't give you time to do that. And that's why as soon as my shit was like, I'll fight RDA and it was like, let's do it. And I'm like, why are they not booking this fight? Look, I like mocha. Yeah. And I know maybe it's like, well, moi Connor and RDA is a more competitive fight. That's cool, but I think if you put microservices in that fight now, and he wins, the clamoring for him to fight for the UFC lightweight title is that much bigger. And that's kind of what you want. Obviously, Habib is under the impression Dana called him and said, Islam has the next title shot, which is od because he still hasn't been the top 5 opponent. Yeah. Yeah. And then Connor today on Twitter before we start a show. I can't wait for my next fight for the title. I want to damn lightweight fighting how long? It's been 5 years. There's no way this man should get a title shot. He has more wins over top 5 opponents. Which is one. Islam Machiavelli destroys Conor McGregor. And for a long time, which is why, you got to give Connor his title shot before. No, you don't have to be. Why would you give Connor a title shot? Because he's just going to get rocked by Islam. Oh, he just choked out. Let's let him fight anybody. Why should he fight for the title? I don't know if he wants a title shot. No, he doesn't fight for a title. No. If it's gage he Connor does good numbers, dude. If you're wondering why give him a title shot, that's just why. It does a good number. How about this? How about this? If it makes dollars and make sense about this, let's be real. Yeah. Conor McGregor fights anybody it does numbers. Tyler and no title. It doesn't matter. That is fair. So why do you got to put a ton on the line? They like doing that. I mean, do they? This weekend mess with us fighting covets in the both these guys are coming off losses and main eventing a pay per view. I guess it doesn't matter. And it's not the most stacked card under them. So Connor fighting in the main event of any UFC pay per view card is gonna do numbers. Unless if it's Oliveira, I think you go Islam, Connor. You're not getting another title shot. Unless for some reason, you talk your way in together at one 70. Conor ain't beat nobody. He deserves, he shouldn't even be close to a title shot. If usman's like, yo, I've been everyone. Give me Connor. And you look at it and be like, you know what? It was fun. You kind of deserve the payday. Or just pay them. How about that? No, 'cause you got to justify. I don't like the idea that kind of McGregor can benefit from losing. I don't like it. The man hasn't won a lightweight fight in 5 years. They got to give him Nate at one 70. And then. There you go. Roll him right into usman at one 7. Look, look, what does more better numbers? Conor versus Nate or Conor versus Oliveira. Hands out. Okay. Kind of Poirier four. Does better, you know? Like, those are both really good options for Connor. I don't need a damn title. Connor could use a win. That's what I'm saying. The man hasn't won. Magazine is one. He's been winning. Connor doesn't even know what winning looks like. When, oh, well, I don't want to give away my prediction. So Jorge mossville would be a great opponent for Conor McGregor. Yes, at one 70. Of course. Connor, what do you got? He's not going to take you down. So let's see what you're striking is. And if you could knock out Jorge Masvidal, then you can just this guy had two title shots. A year ago. I know. You can justify him fighting Kamaru Usman. But he has to beat somebody. That's all. He has to beat somebody. It's not like he's been on a long layoff and inactive. Now, he's fought and lost. Yeah. He got knocked out by Dustin Poirier. Yeah. And then it's like broke, so. Yeah, and then it's like, bro, in a fight he was going to lose anyway. Yeah, but I mean. And then the mega medal of destroyed him. Right? So who you be Donald Cerrone in between stop? In a welterweight fight, stop. There's no way this man should be anywhere near a title shot. But if he does get a title shot, give him to Guzman, don't give him that one 55. No, Connor's biggest hell right now, by the way. I think the more we talk about one 55. If wants to fight a lightweight, let them fight markets have to make Microsoft a bigger star. You know, Connie. You told you one, you want to fight for a title if kind of where to beat my chef? Yeah, you get a title opportunity? Yes. But the only way he's going to fight him if it's for the title. He's not going to fight him for nothing. I don't care about titles for. That's the only thing. He's going to make the money. That's what I'm saying. You don't need a title to get the money? Man, let's talk about two 72. I want to title in his head proves that he's still the best in the world. Yeah, sometimes it really does. But he got a cherry pick the champion to fight. And he's in a position where you're going to be in a world of hurt anywhere you go. I don't want to talk about Congress. We talk about two 70 zoo because Colby Covington is a guy who, if he said, I wanted a title, so you'd be like, well, you beat everybody. I don't like Kobe as a person, but as a fighter, he went probably a second best fighter in this division. Yeah, he's gone through everything. Just lost to the champ twice though. Everybody loses champs. So it is what it is, but that's what all lost to him. Like Leon Edwards, where they fight, you gonna lose them too. But Covington has a stacked resume where you could say he's a winner too away from being back in the title picture. If we can't find anybody else with us in the fight. That's fair, but usman's beat is that's twice. He has. But that's what I'm saying. If there's nobody else. If there was literally nobody else, he was like, pick somebody in his division who deserves it, who's beaten everybody? There's always Connor. There's always Connor. It's like Robert Whittaker right now. Yeah. Robin Whitaker beats.
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"jorge masvidal" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"Ten free travel packs with your athletic greens, first order. All right, let's get into this UFC match. What do you look for with Colby Covington for us, our friend Jorge Masvidal, friend of the show? I'm going to be out there covering her for ESPN. So jealous. So I'm going to be out there. I'm going to cover the ESPN, you figure it out. 50 years in a boxing game, they send me out to UFC fights. I don't know. I mean, but I'm glad because I think the promoter of UFC actually likes you though. I don't know about the box. Something strange going on there. But it gives you that spot, not the other. You could be on to something Sherlock. Captain obvious. But anyway, now listen, I love, hey, I love the sport now. I love the fighters in the UFC just like I love to fight as a boxing. And I'm on it. I'm honored. I'm privileged that they want me out there to talk a little bit and I'm going to be with Chelsea and one of the greats in the business and with all the bad guy. I'd probably want to one of the great producers directors in the business in boxing and MMA. So I'm going to be really, I'm just privileged. I'm going to go people. And it's going to be a great fight. It's supposed to be a great fight. It should be a great fight. A lot of interest, you know, Covington draws people. He's like Muhammad Ali. He goes by the Muhammad Ali. And philosophy of people are going to come together going to hate me or they're going to love me, but they're going to come and buy a ticket, you know? And he knows how to get that storm going. And they got a storm gone between him and Masvidal who used to be teammates. But teammates, they were like best Friends. Yeah. Best Friends. Exactly. So Covington and the analysis that obvious I'm not telling you anything that everyone doesn't know. He's the better wrestler that he was a tremendous collegiate wrestling champion division one he's the guy that his partners game plan is going to be put on precious steady pressure. I think he needs to do it not reckless pressure. Steady pressure behind the jab and then get takedowns when he can. Get to shoots, get takedown. Now the one thing that's opposing of Masvidal can't match him for, you know, his proudness on the mat, but he's very good at defending takedowns very good. He showed that with oseman too in the first fight when he was in the top shape. So he's good at inescapability. You know, kind of like Kyle Murray, the great quarterback of that. Arizona called John Elway years ago. They know how to escape to sack. He's good at that. He's going to have to be good at that. He's going to come in with steady pressure, I believe. Covington looked to get takedowns if he can get in the geography once. That suits him for his skills. And he's a guy with a, you know, he's a guy with a motor that doesn't stop. You know, he's got that cardiovascular. You know, kind of like Neil Armstrong had it in, you know, you know about that better than I do in cycling. He had that extra lung. Now I know people are going to say, oh yeah, teddy did steroids. But before that, let's put that aside. Tell me if I'm right or wrong, Ken. He had that extra lung. He had that capacity to really, really go up the mountains, probably better than most, or maybe anybody. He had that. He had a super high VO2 max. One of the highest ever measured and that's the real measure of an endurance athlete is the VO2 max. How much oxygen I think that's how much oxygen they get in each breath maybe in the blood, but it has to do with it has to do with work capacity and like Nordic Nordic skiers, cross country skiers have historically have the highest and then cyclists. But yeah, Lance, when they measured him at the Olympic training center in his early days, they were like, they knew right away that he was one, 'cause it's like a metric that you can point to and say, if this guy stays with that, this is an elite elite athlete. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for calling him a S tonight. I meant lancer. I mean, I know people say he's in space. And I'm sorry. He's not now to space. He's here. And I guess he's still right so by going to spare time. But he's a venture capitalist now. Sports health and wellness. Well, there it is. Make a lot of money still as he did before. But I would, I would say, tell me if this is fair can. I would say Covington's in that in that company of cardiovascular advantage capacity. That he clearly has a high work rate. So as fine tuned as a cardio cardiovascularly as an athlete can be, I think, in the cage. Yeah, so that's what I think. So I think that he's going to look to grind. He's going to look to put the study pressure, try to wear them as much for those are big on the dog. What is it? They don't want to. I know, I know you look at it while I'm talking but I know he's a big underdog. And I got the line right now as mazar I plus two 50 Covington is minus three 20. Yeah, so I was right there. I would say three to one. So at the end of the day, they're both going to try to play into their strengths. As I said, Covington get to take down, you know, don't get careless, try not to get hit too much. One of the things we're Covington and southpaw. He gets hit a lot of right hands. And he got hit, he got a broken joiner person who's been fighting. He got hit a lot. But to his credit, you know, he was still there going to distance against usman in Madison Square Garden in a remarkable fight of remarkable night, a remarkable cod that the UFC puts on a lot. And they put one on that night. It was all great fights and drama. And that's why they do so good..

"Worth. And the ones that do are getting in trouble because as soon as they open their mouth, they can shut it down. The other thing is, UFC two 72 will be main evented by two fighters coming off of losses in a main event. I have a feeling that Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington are both going to make more than Frances and God. They're not stepping in there for less than a mill guarantee. They're getting to you, be a bill. They're coming off a losses. And they're going to main event a card. And man a new year is camping. Struggled. But it's like, but. They promote who they want to promote. Mass with all Covington kind of fit in the day in the whites ideals, right? I mean, they promote who they know how to Tyron Woodley didn't get that. He didn't get that rub. But now we're watching it we're gonna watch Covington and Masvidal main event a car both coming off a losses. It's gonna do well. It's great. It's gonna be rough for someone like me down there. 'cause I'll be there, covering the card. Oh, yeah. I mean, actually, we talked about this. We wanted this fight. Yeah. But now I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna be there. And I feel like at some point, somebody's gonna be like, there he is. You're definitely not getting the mic at the press conference. Oh no. But I think you know I use it on 'cause I hate press conferences. And these product cameras have been on this downward so they're terrible. The dumbest people ask questions at these NFTs. Like, what are you talking about? I want to ask questions to this one. I can't wait. Because I want Dana or somebody who challenged me on what I said. I can't wait. I can't wait. Because I'm not an idiot. I'm not going back down. Woke up this morning and chose violence. Every day. But it's like, I can't wait because if you challenge me, I'm not an idiot. This is a lot of MMA guys who worry about getting their credential pool. Go ahead, pull the one of the only black men covering your sport for over a decade, pull my credentials because I challenged you on something. Not because I told a lie, I challenged you. 16% of the revenue, you think that's fair? Well, we'll see what he says. And if he says, start showing promotion, I'm like, oh, let me get some fatigue this is my friend. I'll start my own promotion because you didn't have that fucking money. You didn't do this. The fertilizers are on island right now and cashed out and left you with the golden age. It's like when parents, when kids inherit all this stuff from their parents and be like, well, I can do it too. You didn't earn that. Somebody else got it for you. So if anybody tells me I'm on MMA promotion, find me a friend like the fertitta, who ran the station casinos made millions of dollars and bought a company because Dana didn't build that company by himself. So I won. I would love for Dana and say, hey, you're goof. Start your own MMA company. And I was like, all right, cool. I will challenge you, but I still don't matter, 16% of the revenue share, you can't afford to pay these files more. I hope they all leave you. Accept the fighters, again, like you said, aren't going to leave. Slavery, the platform is so big. That they all think, okay, cool. I'll make this now. But I'm going to be making a $100 million. No, you know, the UFC is? America. Yeah, everyone thinks they're going to be a billionaire. You come to America and you was like, free at home. We're all going to be rich. When you come and you was like, wait a second. We're not all going to be rich? Gotcha bitch, that's how American treats you. That's how the UFC treats you. You come to America. The greatest country in the world. You have an opportunity to make all this money. It's true. You can't make this kind of money in Cuba. You can't make this money kind of money in communist societies. But the reality is, only a small few of you can make that kind of money. The rest of you will be making minimum wage. Chasing always chasing the idea of the American Dream is what leads to mental slavery. The idea that I can do it, they all look at Connor and he's like, I can do it. Oh, you can. There are so many things that happen for Connor. We always say lightning in the bottle. I have the right knockouts at the right time. He had a whole country behind him. That wasn't this one. Yeah. And he made it out. And now you look at everybody else who's like, I can do it too. I want to come to America. UFC is America. Corey Anderson is making more in Bellator than he made in the UFC. Corey fucking Anderson. Listen, Tyron Woodley may more in two Jake Paul fights. Two, on the book. Are you talking about like documented payouts? You made more guaranteed money in two Jake Paul face than he did his entire UFC career. He was a champion. Title fights. It just tells you America's to some people is the greatest country in the world. But to other people they go,.

"That's four. And then 5. Also, since since we've been talking since we've been last spoke, it got signed that Colby Covington is fighting Jorge Masvidal. Who do we like in that fight? March 5th, I believe. All day Maslow. Really? Why? Tell me just disappointed me last talking four flights. He's only lost two of them. I feel like I feel like Sean mccorkle, you know, I'm making a bed there. On his own. In favor of Covington and then Shaun, you straight coming, it'll probably take him down and just lay and praying to a win. I don't think he'll stand up, but they may train ever I know when they train for years together. So they know each other's games completely. But I think COVID can just wrestle in the entire time. I don't think he wants to get knocked out by him. But you never know me. What's personal like that? That's a fight that's legitimately personal, like between those two, like, that's not put on. It's not fake. They really genuinely used to be friends and hate each other now. So the picture is with, I guess, mosfet all's baby mama. Kofi goes overboard sometimes, man, and that's coming from me, which is saying something. I think it's a little more boy that is the truth right there. Everyone cargo says you're overboard. You know what if I'm the voice, if I'm the voice of reason, you've got a problem. Greg, who do we like at that fight? I mean, you know, I was going to say Covington until what mccorkle just said, now I think Moscow is going to literally rip his neck open. I think Kobe was going to win. I do. I think my son at all, I think he kind of peeked with the astronaut. And then I think it's like he hasn't looked the same. And he spawned, but you look at how, I don't know. I just think Colby's got Kobe's not gonna take this lightly. He's gonna get nothing but train. He's obsessed. And I think he really wants that belt. And he was very close to bed. No, if we're talking excluding all those outside factors, I really think the only people that person could be Covington really is usman. That's his one guy that he just can't. I think he could beat anybody else in the world. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's going to be a good fight though. I'm very excited about it. And then I wanted to show you. And when is that? March 5th. March, it's a main event. And I guess they're trying to have an 8 Diaz versus Poirier on the undercard. On the card, it's like in Vegas as the comatose. Yeah, that's going to be a Vegas, right? Because I was trying to get the dirty 1230 for the fourth so I could go to that and I guess someone else has it. Is it you? Are you the one that has Adam? No, no. Oh, okay. So he said, that's the one that's already booked in March. March 4th, and I'm like, well, move those motherfuckers. I want to come March 4th. It's like going to fight some March 5th. Yeah, that's going to be a great fight. That's going to be an awesome fight. Yeah. And then Amanda Nunez left her training camp. She left American Top Team and starting her own training camp now. Imagine that. I think that's a little premature. I don't think you leave the camp that just built you into a champion. The second you get there and just like the, I mean, that's a whole nother set of responsibilities. I don't know. I think that's a mistake. I think we need to leave the side where the things are premature or not to the expert atom. Good take up a Carl. Yeah, yeah, I don't understand. I mean, she loses once. I mean, where's she going to get better training? Exactly. Is your career over? She retired? That seems like something you do when you retire. That isn't something you do. You reach the Pinnacle and then you're like, thanks, guys. I'm out and like, I got it for me. I don't know. That seems that seems like the absolute wrong move. Wait, it's been cool if she lost her last title and she's a mom. She wants to retire and be a mom. Yes, she got no. She just is. There are anymore. Speaking of. Maybe that's what it is. Maybe that's what it is. Maybe she's going to go that direction. You may be right back. Now listen, something that we all have to talk about very, very important. Are you guys fans of vanilla ice?

"To get to this Dana White Dana White is the UFC president We've had him on my show before He is a fantastic I love the UFC I'm obsessed with mixed martial arts He's been there from the beginning I believe from U.S. UFC one I have two cuts So here's what you play up for me cut one first Jim Excuse me cut 7 but you get the point Dana White is of course they have to ask data because Dana White took Ivermectin when he was sick with coronavirus And monoclonal antibodies So of course although Dana White's the UFC president they have to make everything political and they have to ask Dana White of course about Ivermectin They're not concerned about Jorge Masvidal or Conor McGregor They want to know about Dana White and Ivermectin So here's how this thing starts out in Dana White is taking absolutely no guff from these guys Play cut 7 Check this out I was wondering what your thoughts were with the 200 plus doctors trying to put pressure on Spotify saying that Joe's menace to are they really Yeah How about this Ever since I came out and said what I did it's almost impossible now to get monoclonal antibodies They're like they're making it so you can't get them You know medicine that absolutely works They're keeping from it I don't want to get too political and start getting into all this But Ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies have been around for a long time Now all of a sudden you can't dig them up to save your life the doctors won't give them to you And even when I did it when I did it here in Vegas which was however many weeks ago that I had it right before Christmas I think or something I made one phone call and was able to get to get it done That's not like some rich famous guy Like anybody could have called because that's what everybody always throws in Yeah of course you can make a phone call and get it Bull everybody could have got it back then Lyne had it When they did monoclonal antibodies and did all that stuff everybody could get it Now Rogan's been talking about it that I went crazy talking about it You can't get those things to save your life now literally He talked about it on my show on Fox and it was a great interview It was one of our most listened to watched interviews We've ever done on my show Here's where it gets really good This is the shorter segment You up for me cutting the second part of this So there's some wise S in the audience media guy Not the first guy but the second guy who are you a doctor You keep in mind this is from a probably in 19 year old kid who went to school for journalism but in undergraduate degree in basket weaving who probably got about a one out of ten on a chemistry entrance exam Figured out he'd go into media blogging for a living and he's asking Dana White who actually took these substances and found that beneficial to him He's asking Dana White to be his doctor But there's something interesting about this When data asks the media guy okay we'll make your case against it He gets suspiciously quiet And I want to bring up something else If you'll notice that I'm reasonably sure the guy asking him his question is it a doctor either He totally misses the irony here check out part two of this There's a lot of bleeps I'm from New York so I sometimes I have to self bleep myself too but here check this out Are you surprised at the backlash that people don't even want to allow you to discuss options and pretreatment It's disgusting It's disgusting Yeah it's one of the craziest things that I've ever witnessed in my life You know We're talking about talking about experimental drugs or things that the stuff's been around And Ivermectin the other doctor the guy won the Nobel Peace Prize You're a doctor No but there's plenty of doctors There you go Here he comes I just asked a question Are you a doctor No But I took him and they both worked for me So why shouldn't I be able to take him again Or other people I won't answer No no come on die then We do have a question You want to know what's scary But I could get some pain pills quicker than I could get monoclonal antibodies No not maybe That's a fact That's a fact They hand out pain pills like they're tic tacs So just to be clear something like 20 year old blogger who couldn't hack it in like a hard science who found himself a journalism blogging for the daily nut sack or whatever Yes Dana White Are you a doctor So to be clear folks if you have a cholesterol problem right And they prescribe to you fed a fibrate or blood pressure they provide or whatever it is unless you're a doctor you should never comment on these things ever If your neighbor says to you hey Charlie I noticed you had a cholesterol problem Yes Mary I did My cholesterol was a two 40 I took this drug though and crazy my cholesterol is down to a two ten Mary's first response according to the guy who writes for the daily nut sack should be Charlie Are you a doctor Well no Mary I'm not but this drug may have worked for me because it had some positive therapeutic effect Well Charlie I've got high cholesterol and I'd rather die than I have a cholesterol of three 40 because at the nutsack every day all we eat are whoppers and you know what 'cause you are not a doctor Charlie I am not going to take that drug nor am I going to ask about it And I'm going to demand you be censored and I'm going to write an article in the daily not talk about it to make sure Charlie that if you speak of it you are banned from the Internet because you are not a doctor Don't live That's the left That's who we live with now The daily nut sack on the left Every single day That's who we live with Media buffoons who are as smart enough to decipher a Charlie Brown's encyclopedia asking Dana White who built a multi-billion dollar organization who actually took a drug if he's the doctor There it is folks the daily nut sack Every single day I'll be right back You know Jerry and Larry's family.
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas

"I don't know, somewhere on that could 55 million. Whatever. Yeah. And you go right down a list. Where is the incentive if they have an exclusive deal and there's no one else there in the bullpen so to speak in an on deck circle to take your place, there's no one to really put on a kind of fight that the audience wasn't they? Amazing. I got to believe some of these networks regret getting into these exclusive deals 'cause they've eliminated all competitions and now one promoter has all the control and they can essentially be like, hey I need more money to put on the yeah but we already gave you money. Take it or leave it. I'll just put on lopsided mismatches all year except for the once or twice when I feel like so much pressure internally, yeah it is. Yeah, every once in a while, you know, like again, I give credit to the people that say things. I know you take it from me. I know you don't take it for mine. Like some people did. But like the great Mickey Duff used to say, teddy, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while. I like that. So every once in a while, yeah, they throw you a bone. Every once in a while, they get forced into it and not gonna lose for them and they throw your bone. You get a good fight, but it happens by accident. Yeah. Or by exit but too often. Too often can too often. They give you what you got the other night. One side of fight, it's the opening fight. And again, it's not just the ESPN, but they give you these one sided fights. Their thing their plan. Their incentive is to keep certain guys their stars are defeated until it gets to a money fight that they can cash in. But to keep them on defeated to build up these champions, build up these records and do it as safely as possible and they get a network that lets them do it. So the audience, you better get ready for that. Your seatbelt, if you don't already know that you're in for that kind of ride. I mean, you know, I feel bad for you. I got smelled swords in a basement if you need some. Wake up a little bit. I do. But I feel bad if you haven't waking up by your own self by now and understand what's going on as a farm system going on and they're building these fighters their guys up with select opponents, you know, subpar opponents, one sided opponents so that they have their staple of fighters that they can continue to flaunt to the network put out this. Hey look, we got these guys. Look, look, keep us keep paying us. We got all these champions. But who are they? Who are they fighting for the most part? And it's the before they become champions. When you developing them, when you're bringing them up, who are they fighting? They're fighting guys that are selected to keep them undefeated to make them three in all four or 5 and O 6 and O 7 and O 8 and O 9 until they get to that place. And you're watching it. You're the fans are there, you know, having to watch it. If they choose to call that out recently, Jake Paul, he said, look at the guys I thought he goes in and he went down a list of all the champions that are out a handful of me. He's like, look at this guy fought a guy who was one. He fought a guy who was two and 60. Then he fought a guy with zero and four. I think he was talking about tank Davis, but it's true. These legitimate contenders. A 100%, but that was my next point, which I always make. That's why don't be mad at me, don't be mad at the messenger. Don't be mad that I tell you that UFC has surpassed boxing in a ratings war and battle. Don't get mad at me for just telling you what is obvious. What's true? What other people are responsible for making happen? I'm not responsible. I'm just telling you. Yeah, the UFC has passed that why. For one simple reason. They don't care if you're going to loss. They care about putting competitive fights on every week. And for the most part, you get someone sided, but for the most part, on a much higher average can. Teddy to your point, the three biggest draws in the UFC right now Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, and Jorge Masvidal. I don't know what their combined losses are, but I'll get I'll bet you it's close to 20. And the three biggest draws they get paid the most and the losses don't matter because they get better when they lose, they learn, they grow. One thing I wanted to say about the Knicks though, as the Boston sports fan and I pretty much hate all the New York teams, but I will say, as a sports fan, it's unacceptable to me that New York doesn't have a competitive basketball team. Okay, you're gonna have off years here and there, but I sympathize with the Knicks fans because I loved when the Knicks and the Celtics have good rivalry and it's heated. But for this guy to not care about putting on a team, my friend Jesse it's Laurent part of the Atlanta Hawks I'll guarantee you he would do anything in his power to get a ring because when you have a lot of money you're there, you have a lot of money. Don't you want to celebrate winning and doing something great for the community and bringing a title to like a team and a fan base that cares so deeply. Don't you want to be the guy who's like, hey, look at what we did New York. We did this. I know Jesse also would like cut a finger off to win the Atlanta Hawks win the title. And I'll bet you half the fans in New York would give up an arm to see the next win. This guy seems indifferent. He keeps putting out this crap product. Yeah, you're right. Defending New York had correct you on one little thing. They might give up someone else's office to win this thing..

They didn't press charges. So stuff like that doesn't like to stay on the record. Wow, damn. I had no idea. You were such a criminal. That's crazy. Good old days. All right. Well, speaking of crazy things. So it got announced yesterday that Jorge Masvidal is fighting Colby Covington. I love that. That's going to be a great fight. You know, it's funny. It's like you always like it's like these guys make the top, right? And then it just seems like it's such a hard fall. Like Tyron Woodley, remember when he knocked out, I remember when he knocked out Robbie Lawler because I had money on that. And then he was like, he was a champ. He was the and then since then, it just was like down, down. I mean, to the point where he got knocked out by Jake Paul on TV. It's just crazy, right? Well, I guess it's not getting there, staying there. That's the hardest part. Wait, what did you get there to the top, right? What's that? The motivation can go away. What you got to the top, right? Yeah, right. And people say, you know, it's like Sinbad said you're the funniest when you're riding the bus. But Masvidal, I almost put them on that same category of like when he knocked out Ben Askren in 6 seconds. He was the biggest star MMA. I mean, aside from, let's see, McGregor, but it was not only going to be Ben Askren, he beat him in 6 seconds. But since and then he beat Nate Diaz. But since then, he's lost to usman twice. And I mean, there's no shame in that. But he's looked..

"Island becomes a reality. Well, I guess it's already a reality. But there will actually be fights there, and it's actually Gosh! Maybe one of the best certainly form in my opinion, the best card they've had since they've come back the UFC But really good card. A lot of big names. And then, of course, the main event of the evening is a fight that Probably should have been on the card anyway. What We ended up plucking out, I suppose. With Moscow it all being put in against Guzman. So I wantto talk a little UFC 2 51 Maybe Look at some of these potential wagers and get Ah Someone who used to frequent this show. It needs to come on on Maura, and that's on me. Scott Kanevsky joins me now, Scott. Good to catch up, man. How are you? I feel like a first time long time been awhile. It has been a long time. And how are you? How's the family? How's everything going doing well, and I appreciate you having me on thinking about me and things were going well, and things are only gonna get better tomorrow night. Yeah, absolutely. Did you laugh at Dana White when he said when he first brought up Fight Island? Yes. And no. Because you know you crazy enough that he was probably speaking the truth. You figured, you know, maybe he has something going and he's crazy enough and has the money the backing toe pull something off like that, And sure enough, here we are. I mentioned at the beginning How good this card in is and it's not just mustered all versus Guzman by it. Man. Did we luck out? Right? I mean, my you know, I feel bad for the dude who had to pull out and it doesn't get a fight Guzman tomorrow but as a card, it's so much better now that master dolls on it, don't you think? Agreed. Gilbert Burn, We'll get another shot at some point. I mean, hopefully next in line for whoever wins tomorrow night. But this is a fight Everybody wanted. You know, already. Mas Vidal inducement aren't exactly the best of friends. They've been talking for a while. They had that the altercation back in the states. It was Super Bowl on radio row. So this is something everyone's been wanting to see. And now with Byrnes Contracting Cove it we're going to get it on. I think that's just made a already really intriguing AA fight cars that much better. Now I got burned by Justin GHT because I was all in on Tony Ferguson in that fight like it's not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen twice, right? I mean hospital is not gonna win. This thing is he Okay. From a mm a standpoint, I have to say no. And I would agree with you. But if you're going to talk, betting going all in and you've seen what's happened over the last 24 36 hours. Money is just money and tickets are pouring in on Mas Vidal. He's he's gone from about a plus 2 25 plus 35 to a plus 1 85 last I saw earlier today. I believe there would be MGM believe put out there that they're taken 81 ticket being booked for Mas Vidal. And you know, you know what they say. You gotta follow the money. So it just Somebody knows something, or is it just It's obviously not just big bets that are coming in on Mas Vidal, but there's no number of that's coming on him. And that just makes you wonder if someone I'll be just like you know where agree like you. It was all set up for Tony Tow. Go in there and handle him and take him to the ground and didn't but You know, maybe he'll learn from that. Now. What's what's mobs but all going to be able to do to be Guzman. That's the big question. You know, he's better on the feet, obviously, but you know who's going to try and take him down and out wrestling? So How? How does Ma's little battle that and managed to Ah, toe? Hold him off? I don't know. I think I'm right there with you. And I just looked at Fanduel and they have mustered all that plus 200 right now. So even though that's a little bit longer odds, then maybe MGM has that still down as you said Scott from 2 25 or something like that just a couple of days ago, and I guess oh, so let me ask you this if we do the betting thing I I have Guzman minus 2 45 or mosque it all plus 200 Or and then of course, you could get into it. Um, I took in my parlay. I took Guzman just straight up because I got enough other stuff in my parlay that I'm going to get pretty good odds out of it. But if you were laying down, Abed, would you would you do it smarter, Would you Dumas fit all Okay, so I would I would wait until about 15 to 30 minutes before fight and see where those odds are because of who's come down to, like, minus 200. I think you jump on him because they're getting more value for him. And firstly, I think he does come through with the wind, and he's just going to grind it out. But if that money starts about bounce backto mas Vidal, you know, I think, and you're looking to take a shot. You're willing, you know, maybe you had a good night on the earlier fight. Maybe maybe you going on and on and you take that shot. Just hope he comes with that flying me. He landed on aspirin
