WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.399
This shit ain't nothing to me, man. This is Boxing

00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:06.679
Before Dark. Boxing. Boxing. Boxing. Back. Back.

00:00:06.820 --> 00:00:12.160
Back. Back. Before. Before. Before. Before. Boxing.

00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:15.679
Boxing. Boxing. Boxing Before Dark. This is Boxing

00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:26.399
Before Dark. Boxing Before Dark. I can't wait

00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:29.559
for it to get dark. I'm a little sleepy at the

00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:34.960
moment. No time for sleep today, Leo. No time.

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.659
No, I still got more fucking schoolwork to fucking

00:00:39.659 --> 00:00:43.840
catch up on. God. This is why I didn't go to

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.700
college in the fucking first place. Because I

00:00:46.700 --> 00:00:49.939
didn't want to have to do stuff like this. Fortunately,

00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:56.539
I'm almost caught up. But still. Oh, man. It's

00:00:56.539 --> 00:01:01.399
Leo, your boy. And I'm joined by Shanada. You

00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:03.340
all can't see it, but she's wearing official

00:01:03.340 --> 00:01:09.579
merch. I am. Shop .lvx .be. Go get yourself some

00:01:09.579 --> 00:01:14.099
threads. Some of the t -shirts are pretty nice,

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:18.340
actually. They do fit a little smaller than most

00:01:18.340 --> 00:01:23.719
brands. Really? Mine... They ran a little big.

00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:29.319
Oh. I think it depends on, because it's different

00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.640
suppliers depending on where you are in the world.

00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:37.000
Oh, maybe I got Asian sizes. Yeah, I think so.

00:01:38.180 --> 00:01:41.000
That's unfortunate for me. I am not Asian sized.

00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:48.840
You know what else isn't Asian sized? Manny Pacquiao's

00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:53.099
calves. What a beautiful fucking segue to save.

00:01:54.060 --> 00:01:57.540
Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios. It's officially

00:01:57.540 --> 00:02:01.379
official. What the fuck? I know I've gone on

00:02:01.379 --> 00:02:04.400
this rant, but what the fuck? There's a date.

00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:09.879
I believe there's a venue. There's a co -main

00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:13.259
set. I think Fundora, Tim Zhu is going to be

00:02:13.259 --> 00:02:19.360
the co -main to that. I don't know. What more

00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:22.479
do you want? what what the hell more do you want

00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.819
everyone holds you up as eight division champion

00:02:25.819 --> 00:02:30.060
my scruples notwithstanding well he's out of

00:02:30.060 --> 00:02:32.639
money again oh you think that's what it is i

00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:35.319
think he's given away all his money again yeah

00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:38.580
oh shit that's right he does do that he's been

00:02:38.580 --> 00:02:42.159
building entire neighborhoods and schools and

00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:45.060
hospitals and he gives it away in a very nice

00:02:45.060 --> 00:02:48.219
way but i think i think man he's broke again

00:02:49.580 --> 00:02:54.139
And he's also still running for political office.

00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.580
I think he's running for his re -election right

00:02:57.580 --> 00:03:02.699
now. Is he? Yeah, I believe so. And the election

00:03:02.699 --> 00:03:08.300
happens a few weeks before the fight. Like two

00:03:08.300 --> 00:03:11.340
or three weeks. So there was a question in the

00:03:11.340 --> 00:03:14.719
Discord about if he's going to be able to have

00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:19.159
a full camp because he's campaigning. I expect

00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:22.419
he runs on name value. And that's pretty much

00:03:22.419 --> 00:03:28.840
it. According to Wikipedia, it's actually this

00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:34.139
week. Oh, shit. Okay, then. Yeah, never mind.

00:03:34.219 --> 00:03:37.900
That's a non -factor. I think part of why they

00:03:37.900 --> 00:03:40.580
delayed it a little bit was because of the Senate

00:03:40.580 --> 00:03:45.020
election. Oh, they delayed the Pacquiao -Barrios

00:03:45.020 --> 00:03:49.080
fight? Yeah. Well, the signing. I see. Okay.

00:03:49.340 --> 00:03:54.879
Well... His... He may be really nice with building

00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.960
neighborhoods and stuff, but his politics aren't

00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:02.520
very nice. No. You either die the hero or you

00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.780
live long enough to become the villain. Manny

00:04:05.780 --> 00:04:08.419
is too religious to be in politics. Yeah, he's

00:04:08.419 --> 00:04:13.500
a Catholic fundamentalist or born -again Christian

00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:17.410
fundamentalist or something. He's a... Hardliner,

00:04:17.509 --> 00:04:24.149
for sure. Yeah. But I suppose if you build houses

00:04:24.149 --> 00:04:26.610
for thousands of people, they'd feel like assholes

00:04:26.610 --> 00:04:29.949
if they don't elect you, so... Yeah, he is a

00:04:29.949 --> 00:04:33.550
man of the people. Just, I guess it depends on

00:04:33.550 --> 00:04:37.449
what kind of people. Yeah. Just don't be gay.

00:04:37.689 --> 00:04:40.990
Yeah, pretty much. Man, I remember that happening

00:04:40.990 --> 00:04:44.990
when he... Some press conference, he's like...

00:04:45.420 --> 00:04:49.180
gay people or LGBT people are lower than animals

00:04:49.180 --> 00:04:54.139
and he lost all of his sponsorships except for

00:04:54.139 --> 00:04:58.660
like the Filipino ones that was which is probably

00:04:58.660 --> 00:05:05.139
why he's broke could be if Manny kept his religion

00:05:05.139 --> 00:05:10.000
more to himself he wouldn't have to fight to

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:14.420
make money he could be just like commercials

00:05:14.420 --> 00:05:20.279
around the world famous. Yeah, before that press

00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:23.439
conference. And it wasn't an immediate reaction

00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:25.500
where everyone dropped him. They kind of gave

00:05:25.500 --> 00:05:28.220
him a shot. Like, yeah, do you want to maybe

00:05:28.220 --> 00:05:31.660
walk that one back? And then he said, I'm sorry

00:05:31.660 --> 00:05:35.540
that you all don't feel the same way. I'm sorry

00:05:35.540 --> 00:05:38.660
that you don't understand that this is the way

00:05:38.660 --> 00:05:41.560
things are. Yeah, I'm sorry you're all going

00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:46.310
to hell. Yep. There's no love, or there's no

00:05:46.310 --> 00:05:50.350
hate like Christian love. Yeah. That's a good

00:05:50.350 --> 00:05:54.550
one. But, as far as the fight goes, Pacquiao's

00:05:54.550 --> 00:05:59.069
too fucking old. Like, Barrios wins this, I think,

00:05:59.149 --> 00:06:02.129
and it's gonna make me sad. It's gonna make me

00:06:02.129 --> 00:06:07.769
really sad. Pacquiao had an exhibition, didn't

00:06:07.769 --> 00:06:10.230
he? Not too long ago? Yeah, he was in Japan.

00:06:11.069 --> 00:06:14.529
He looked like absolute ass, and he was getting

00:06:14.529 --> 00:06:19.470
beat by a kickboxer or something. It was the

00:06:19.470 --> 00:06:22.709
Ryzen guy, wasn't it? Yeah, I know it was a Ryzen

00:06:22.709 --> 00:06:27.689
card that he was on, but losing to a kickboxer,

00:06:27.689 --> 00:06:35.970
dude. What is happening? Barrios wins this. Pretty

00:06:35.970 --> 00:06:41.399
sure. Or he should win this, I guess. Yeah, puncher's

00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:44.680
chance or whatever, and it's really shitty that

00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.660
that's what we're reducing Manny Pacquiao to,

00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:50.699
is puncher's chance. But he's just, he's too

00:06:50.699 --> 00:06:56.379
old. Right, he's mid -40s. Best days are long

00:06:56.379 --> 00:06:59.680
gone, unless he gets back on the magic shakes,

00:06:59.879 --> 00:07:03.019
the mystery drinks. I don't think that'll even

00:07:03.019 --> 00:07:06.019
help him anymore. I mean, it'll help, but it's

00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:11.389
not gonna fix it. Yeah, agility. I don't think

00:07:11.389 --> 00:07:17.310
that'll come back. That's athleticism. Well,

00:07:18.790 --> 00:07:21.189
and I don't know what kind of chin Pacquiao has

00:07:21.189 --> 00:07:29.790
anymore. That kind of goes with age. But Barrios

00:07:29.790 --> 00:07:34.709
isn't like a power threat. No, but Pacquiao's

00:07:34.709 --> 00:07:39.000
not an agent. He's been knocked out bad a couple

00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:46.720
times. So Mario Barrios is... His punches are

00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:51.800
individual straws. And then Pacquiao's chin is

00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:54.139
the camel's back. And we're just going to see...

00:07:54.139 --> 00:07:57.879
We're going to see which one does it. If he can

00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.319
do it. Well, I also heard rumors, and they are

00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:04.279
just rumors, that they wanted to have the fight

00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:06.699
somewhere else and Pacquiao couldn't get a medical

00:08:06.699 --> 00:08:11.199
pass. So that's why it's ended up in, is it Nevada?

00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:16.100
That's a little... A little bit more lax. Yeah,

00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:18.899
yeah. That's why it's ended up in Vegas, partly.

00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:22.259
I mean, Vegas is a big boxing place and stuff

00:08:22.259 --> 00:08:26.800
too, but Pacquiao had to go around to get his

00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:33.019
medical... Oh, the same way Mike Tyson had to

00:08:33.019 --> 00:08:38.759
shop around for his as well. If that's the stage

00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:43.539
that you're at, where you're having to look at

00:08:43.539 --> 00:08:46.460
different venues in different states to see who

00:08:46.460 --> 00:08:50.440
will sanction your fight... Hang them up. Yeah,

00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.320
it's time to call it quits, homeboy. Again, I

00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.419
don't know if that one's actually true, but I

00:08:56.419 --> 00:09:02.909
heard rumors. At this age, I can see why they...

00:09:02.909 --> 00:09:10.509
I feel like there's some validity to that. But...

00:09:10.509 --> 00:09:17.509
Man, that fight is cursed. And I don't see the

00:09:17.509 --> 00:09:20.409
point of letting Pacquiao have a shot. So, say

00:09:20.409 --> 00:09:22.690
he wins it. He gets his ass kicked by anyone

00:09:22.690 --> 00:09:25.929
else that's a title holder. Like, absolutely

00:09:25.929 --> 00:09:29.179
destroyed. And if he loses, we're back where

00:09:29.179 --> 00:09:33.980
we started. There is no point to this fight.

00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:39.399
It doesn't accomplish anything. The only thing

00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:45.340
it does do is for a certain broader section of

00:09:45.340 --> 00:09:48.120
the fanbase, they'll just see Pacquiao on...

00:09:48.549 --> 00:09:52.129
Barrios his resume and then just say oh he beat

00:09:52.129 --> 00:09:54.669
Pacquiao holy shit he must be amazing in fucking

00:09:54.669 --> 00:10:00.529
2025 like stupidest fight of the year by far

00:10:00.529 --> 00:10:05.409
but actually you know you know what else was

00:10:05.409 --> 00:10:09.730
fucking stupid Connor Bent and his always his

00:10:09.730 --> 00:10:14.250
the ways that he decides to spend his money um

00:10:14.250 --> 00:10:18.879
I mean who am I To count somebody else's cash.

00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:27.179
Fucking can't be me, but still. The 500 ,000

00:10:27.179 --> 00:10:32.419
pound or dollar? Regardless. I think pound. The

00:10:32.419 --> 00:10:37.600
half a million penalty for Chris Eubank being

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:44.360
.05 over. God, that still fucking gets me. .05.

00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:49.899
People get away with more. Oh, they had, yeah.

00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.580
Yeah, that's rough. It's a fucking bad break,

00:10:54.620 --> 00:11:04.639
man. Go jack off. One little spooge, that'll

00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:11.340
get you right under. .05? Yeah. But Conor Benn

00:11:11.340 --> 00:11:14.820
buys a Rolls Royce. That was all tricked out.

00:11:16.719 --> 00:11:22.399
So, congratulations. It was an extra 500k, so...

00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.460
I mean, that's a big bonus. Yeah, you didn't

00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:29.940
dip into the purse for it. I could find better

00:11:29.940 --> 00:11:33.340
things to buy, but I guess... I would probably

00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:36.620
pull a Manny Pacquiao and, like, fix up a school

00:11:36.620 --> 00:11:40.539
or something. Yeah. I have all this free money.

00:11:40.700 --> 00:11:43.340
What do I do with it? I don't need it. I have

00:11:43.340 --> 00:11:46.919
plenty from the purse. i don't really need this

00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:52.340
time to go do stuff or start a scholarship fund

00:11:52.340 --> 00:12:00.220
or something yeah um boxing i wonder i wonder

00:12:00.220 --> 00:12:05.019
if he got it painted black with uh destroyer

00:12:05.019 --> 00:12:09.419
along the side like his shorts let's see if this

00:12:09.419 --> 00:12:13.299
article that'd be kind of cool actually not seeing

00:12:13.299 --> 00:12:16.580
a picture of it Probably not. That would be too

00:12:16.580 --> 00:12:21.659
cool for Connor Ben. No, it's white. He bought

00:12:21.659 --> 00:12:28.980
a white one. Nobody. Oh, apparently he has a

00:12:28.980 --> 00:12:33.399
car collection. This is one of his things. So

00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.000
maybe this is a different Rolls Royce. No, he

00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:39.840
bought a white Rolls Royce with this money. Yep.

00:12:40.539 --> 00:12:48.360
280 ,000 pounds. Yeah. That's quite. car i don't

00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:51.580
like white cars i don't like white cars either

00:12:51.580 --> 00:12:57.659
but i if if i could get one i would but i just

00:12:57.659 --> 00:13:02.379
know his white he has a white convertible porsche

00:13:02.379 --> 00:13:05.419
with a red soft top that looks pretty good actually

00:13:06.990 --> 00:13:09.429
I would hope that the seats, the interior is

00:13:09.429 --> 00:13:13.490
red too. It has to be. That's just fucking sexy

00:13:13.490 --> 00:13:18.509
as all hell. I do like soft tops. But yeah, this

00:13:18.509 --> 00:13:21.509
white Rolls Royce he bought is generic as fuck.

00:13:21.730 --> 00:13:24.029
I don't even like Rolls Royces. They look like

00:13:24.029 --> 00:13:28.269
square boxes. Anyways, Connor Ben's an asshole.

00:13:28.649 --> 00:13:34.649
Yeah, he is, isn't he? but yeah that's anybody

00:13:34.649 --> 00:13:38.429
who has a car collection that is all modern cars

00:13:38.429 --> 00:13:44.870
extra douchey i like can only think that if you

00:13:44.870 --> 00:13:49.649
were doing it with i don't know like sports cars

00:13:49.649 --> 00:13:52.710
or like super cars like you have like a mclaren

00:13:52.710 --> 00:13:57.169
and the lamborghini and the ferrari no i'm i'm

00:13:57.169 --> 00:13:59.570
still gonna stand by it you need at least a few

00:13:59.570 --> 00:14:03.139
classic ones tossed in there All brand new modern

00:14:03.139 --> 00:14:05.659
cars just means you don't know how to fix a car.

00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:10.620
If all of your supercars are under warranty,

00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:14.860
it's lame. But if you buy it, if you're like

00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:19.700
a boxer, you got 500k to throw around, I would

00:14:19.700 --> 00:14:24.000
buy it fully restored. I'm not gonna restore

00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:28.840
it myself. Well, yeah, but... It still means

00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:30.639
that you're scared it's going to break down on

00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:32.320
the road and you won't be able to get it running

00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:35.860
again. Totter Ben definitely calls tow trucks.

00:14:38.860 --> 00:14:42.320
I bet you he doesn't even open the hood. He just,

00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:46.299
yep, my car won't start. Where to open the hood?

00:14:47.259 --> 00:14:51.299
Google. Rolls Royce, fucking whatever, Phantom.

00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:56.019
Hood latch. Yeah, where's the button to open

00:14:56.019 --> 00:15:00.940
the hood? Anyways, I think modern car collecting

00:15:00.940 --> 00:15:05.360
is kind of lame. Personally. And Connor Ben's

00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:08.259
an asshole. What kind of car would you... Number

00:15:08.259 --> 00:15:12.700
one purchase. You get the extra 500k. What's

00:15:12.700 --> 00:15:15.720
the one you're getting? Me? Yeah. But all mine

00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:20.779
are ones I could realistically buy now. I don't

00:15:20.779 --> 00:15:23.919
have super expensive tasting cars. There's a

00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:28.320
very specific... Older Mustang. I want it in

00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:32.179
forest green with a tan soft top. But I forget

00:15:32.179 --> 00:15:42.899
what year. We've got to move off the car conversation.

00:15:44.179 --> 00:15:47.019
Yeah, that's probably all getting cut. Nah, not

00:15:47.019 --> 00:15:51.139
all of it. What we'll cap it off with is, besides

00:15:51.139 --> 00:15:53.559
the Chevelle, I'm going to cut the whole story

00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:55.889
if you want to hear it. You already know where

00:15:55.889 --> 00:16:00.570
you got to go. It's Patreon. Back to boxing.

00:16:00.769 --> 00:16:04.110
My dream personal project that I would want to

00:16:04.110 --> 00:16:09.710
do myself is a VW bus. Nice. I would want to

00:16:09.710 --> 00:16:13.009
do the whole thing myself. Unlimited money. I

00:16:13.009 --> 00:16:16.210
would pay somebody to make me a hydraulic lowrider.

00:16:16.490 --> 00:16:19.070
It would have the ugliest fucking paint job.

00:16:19.230 --> 00:16:22.269
It would lift. It would drop. Would it bounce?

00:16:23.629 --> 00:16:27.690
Fuck yes, it would bounce. I would have the most

00:16:27.690 --> 00:16:31.690
ghetto fucking lowrider you've ever seen with

00:16:31.690 --> 00:16:36.169
the spinning rims. An El Camino. Lowrider El

00:16:36.169 --> 00:16:40.750
Camino. I am. When it comes to cars, I most definitely

00:16:40.750 --> 00:16:50.649
am. Alright. Moving into the times. What is it?

00:16:50.690 --> 00:16:55.259
Fatal Fury. City of the Wolves. I'm still not

00:16:55.259 --> 00:16:59.240
sure. Was this called City of the Wolves because

00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:04.980
of the game? Yes. Okay, so the game company sponsored

00:17:04.980 --> 00:17:08.180
the events to be named City of the Wolves. Okay,

00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:12.519
got it. I'm pretty sure Fatal Fury is the franchise

00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:15.000
and then City of Wolves is the game that's coming

00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.339
out. I see. Well, so starting from the bottom

00:17:19.339 --> 00:17:24.160
of the Times Square card. It was Reito Tsutsumi

00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:29.380
versus Lavelle Whittington. Possibly the most

00:17:29.380 --> 00:17:32.400
exciting fight of the entire fucking night. Yeah,

00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:37.640
I think. You're right. And that's not good. No,

00:17:37.700 --> 00:17:43.099
that's a really low bar to set. And none of the

00:17:43.099 --> 00:17:47.660
fights clear it. To his credit, Lavelle Whittington...

00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:51.660
did not show up to just lay down despite this

00:17:51.660 --> 00:17:54.059
being like a hot prospect coming out of Japan.

00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:59.680
He's connected to the right people. And he's

00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:03.940
an amateur standout. He didn't crack under pressure.

00:18:04.180 --> 00:18:06.180
He gave him a good fight. He gave him good work.

00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:09.839
So Tsutsumi really showed out. So it was a great

00:18:09.839 --> 00:18:16.180
fight. Yeah, Japan saved. Cinco de Mayo weekend

00:18:16.180 --> 00:18:20.180
somehow. Oh, they did, didn't they? Looking at

00:18:20.180 --> 00:18:24.819
the rest of it. The rest of this card. So the

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:29.079
Tsutsumi fight was what it was. Like, it was

00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:32.460
exciting enough. It's a debutant. Yeah, yeah.

00:18:32.859 --> 00:18:36.519
So you can't expect too much. But the rest of

00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:40.799
this card was hot fucking dog shit. Like, those

00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:45.390
poop bag... garbage cans at the dog run in august

00:18:45.390 --> 00:18:49.349
this card sucked gross everything about it sucked

00:18:49.349 --> 00:18:53.150
well and they just lied to people saying you

00:18:53.150 --> 00:18:55.809
could come to times square and watch it like

00:18:55.809 --> 00:19:00.630
one of our friends went he flew to new york and

00:19:00.630 --> 00:19:03.029
you couldn't see anything they put up the big

00:19:03.029 --> 00:19:07.569
fences to keep people out yeah and all they had

00:19:07.569 --> 00:19:13.089
was like two screens across the street If I was

00:19:13.089 --> 00:19:14.990
going to watch it on a fucking television, I

00:19:14.990 --> 00:19:18.210
would have stayed home. Yeah. Well, there was

00:19:18.210 --> 00:19:21.049
people complaining on the internet. Like, I saw

00:19:21.049 --> 00:19:23.529
a couple articles. And everyone's like, well,

00:19:23.769 --> 00:19:28.069
you should have made sure you could see it before

00:19:28.069 --> 00:19:30.170
you bought flights. And they're like, they said

00:19:30.170 --> 00:19:34.549
you could a month before the fight. Like, flight

00:19:34.549 --> 00:19:37.349
tickets you don't buy a week before you fly.

00:19:37.490 --> 00:19:43.029
They're too expensive. Yeah. anyways like with

00:19:43.029 --> 00:19:46.210
a trip for a trip like the flights like the first

00:19:46.210 --> 00:19:49.289
thing i'm getting probably before the fight ticket

00:19:49.289 --> 00:19:53.650
depending on how popular the fight is but still

00:19:53.650 --> 00:19:56.529
yeah like well on this one there was no tickets

00:19:56.529 --> 00:20:00.089
so like your your flight is kind of the only

00:20:00.089 --> 00:20:02.990
thing you're you're buying yeah first come first

00:20:02.990 --> 00:20:08.670
serve but apparently nobody got served bullshit

00:20:10.070 --> 00:20:13.630
Absolute dog shit. Speaking of dog shit, bullshit,

00:20:13.809 --> 00:20:17.349
all of the animal shits, Arnold Barbosa just

00:20:17.349 --> 00:20:23.190
did not have the fighting spirit to even really

00:20:23.190 --> 00:20:27.089
try. After the first four rounds, Teofimo had

00:20:27.089 --> 00:20:33.390
him figured out, and that was game. Yeah. Teo's

00:20:33.390 --> 00:20:38.220
just good. When Teo's good, he's so good. Yeah,

00:20:38.220 --> 00:20:41.660
he looked like a pound -for -pound talent. Yeah,

00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:48.940
he was on. Yeah, it helped that Barbosa was completely

00:20:48.940 --> 00:20:53.559
flat -footed, was not interested in throwing

00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:57.440
anything more than one, one, two, and that was

00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:02.480
pretty much it. And it was, man, that is just

00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:08.440
not enough to step in with a... With Tio. With

00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.240
Tio Fimo, who's on point? Uh -uh. You're gonna

00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:16.619
have to do better than that. Yeah, and the fight

00:21:16.619 --> 00:21:20.579
was just so one -sided. Like, of the three main

00:21:20.579 --> 00:21:23.400
fights, this was by far the best, but it still

00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:28.900
was just not exciting. Nah. Tio did show up.

00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:32.119
Yes. Tio showed up, and Tio looked good, and

00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:35.430
when Tio looks good, you have to be good. As

00:21:35.430 --> 00:21:38.150
well. And Barbossa was just outclassed. Yep.

00:21:39.789 --> 00:21:43.089
There's levels to this. That was one of the.

00:21:43.190 --> 00:21:45.569
My reaction to that one was. There's levels to

00:21:45.569 --> 00:21:52.009
this. Yeah. You can never count on Tio. But this

00:21:52.009 --> 00:21:55.130
was what I was expecting. If Tio wasn't a crash

00:21:55.130 --> 00:22:02.170
out. Speaking of crashing out. Actually. Devin

00:22:02.170 --> 00:22:07.519
Haney. verse jose ramirez you may remember beloved

00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:10.819
listener from like last time we were talking

00:22:10.819 --> 00:22:14.240
about oh who would fall asleep who would do that

00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:17.880
that would be me this fight put me to sleep i

00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.380
straight up fell asleep it was so fucking boring

00:22:21.380 --> 00:22:27.720
i fell asleep i um Yeah, we were supposed to

00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:31.059
record right after the fights ended, and Leo

00:22:31.059 --> 00:22:36.660
just didn't show. Yeah, I was fucking dead. D

00:22:36.660 --> 00:22:43.859
-E -D, dead. Man, that was... That was bad. It

00:22:43.859 --> 00:22:47.480
was rough. I think I fell asleep around 6 or

00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.700
7. It was early morning here, and I had trouble

00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:58.519
staying awake. Haney, is he damaged goods, do

00:22:58.519 --> 00:23:03.460
you think? Yes. Based on that performance, Haney

00:23:03.460 --> 00:23:08.859
is never going to be good again. Unless he figures

00:23:08.859 --> 00:23:11.380
his shit out. He ran the whole time. He looked

00:23:11.380 --> 00:23:16.460
terrified. He looked so scared. Do you remember

00:23:16.460 --> 00:23:20.920
that viral clip of that kid that definitely shouldn't

00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:24.380
have been in a boxing ring? And he looked like

00:23:24.380 --> 00:23:27.480
Haney running around and then the guy walks up

00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:32.440
and just knocks him out. Anyways. Ramirez couldn't

00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:38.460
catch him. Yeah, yeah. Ramirez is washed. Officially

00:23:38.460 --> 00:23:42.359
washed. I was deluding myself and I knew it.

00:23:42.640 --> 00:23:45.779
I was hoping that being able to go up and wait

00:23:45.779 --> 00:23:50.240
would save him. He can't do shit anymore. He

00:23:50.240 --> 00:23:54.259
was never fast and he's just... Too slow. His

00:23:54.259 --> 00:23:59.759
feet are broken. And Haney, whatever his other

00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:03.140
faults, he's still super fucking athletic. Because

00:24:03.140 --> 00:24:06.380
there were a few times when he did let his hands

00:24:06.380 --> 00:24:11.440
go. And he looked actually fast. Like his hands

00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:15.140
were still there. But he just never threw anything.

00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:19.759
He's scared. He's absolutely terrified to get

00:24:19.759 --> 00:24:24.380
hit. And he had... happy feet i don't know what

00:24:24.380 --> 00:24:27.599
anyone else calls it but like his feet were just

00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:30.839
always going he wasn't planting at all because

00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:33.339
he was scared that if he stood still long enough

00:24:33.339 --> 00:24:39.200
he'd get hit it was frantic energy yeah this

00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:41.980
fight really disappointed the fuck out of me

00:24:41.980 --> 00:24:46.460
ramirez needs to retire i love him but he needs

00:24:46.460 --> 00:24:50.359
to retire and haney looked like shit Haney looked

00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:52.940
like a terrified little kid that was trying not

00:24:52.940 --> 00:24:58.519
to get caught. Fighting a bully. Then you don't

00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:03.559
want to get hit. Yeah, like a chihuahua versus

00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:06.940
a bulldog. The bulldog can't catch him and the

00:25:06.940 --> 00:25:11.940
chihuahua can't do shit. Speaking of chihuahuas,

00:25:11.940 --> 00:25:16.779
Raleigh, when he made that keychain of Isaac

00:25:16.779 --> 00:25:21.240
Cruz. Oh, yeah. Yeah, so that's the segue into

00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:25.980
Ryan Garcia getting his ass beat. I was so happy.

00:25:26.279 --> 00:25:28.039
Yeah, you made money on this one, didn't you?

00:25:28.160 --> 00:25:33.200
I did. Raleigh was 7 -1 at the place I put my

00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:36.960
bets. My bookie paid out 7 .4, I think, on every

00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.839
dollar. Wow. Yeah, that made up for the rest

00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:45.460
of my losses this weekend. Did you bet a lot?

00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:50.500
no no i bet five bucks but still i turned it

00:25:50.500 --> 00:25:56.839
into almost 40 so that's really good what are

00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.319
these a million excuses i haven't i didn't hear

00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:05.359
about those okay so afterwards and apparently

00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:08.759
this is more legit than i thought it was but

00:26:09.640 --> 00:26:13.099
Ryan was saying how the no crowd made it feel

00:26:13.099 --> 00:26:16.119
really weird and he could hear people yelling

00:26:16.119 --> 00:26:19.240
things and stuff and he could hear the cars and

00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:23.140
the sirens and that one is whatever. Ryan, lock

00:26:23.140 --> 00:26:26.819
the fuck in. Like, you're a professional. If

00:26:26.819 --> 00:26:29.579
you can hear sirens, it shouldn't throw you off

00:26:29.579 --> 00:26:33.019
your game. But the other one was he said that

00:26:33.019 --> 00:26:35.460
when he was sitting in that car, it smelled like

00:26:35.460 --> 00:26:38.160
gas and that really made him like sick to his

00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:44.920
stomach. But apparently, according to Hawley

00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:49.400
on Probox, the Batmobile he came in on, the cops

00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:52.099
came and said it wasn't street legal. So they

00:26:52.099 --> 00:26:54.440
didn't actually drive it. They had people push

00:26:54.440 --> 00:27:00.720
him and the car from the hotel to his ring walk.

00:27:02.099 --> 00:27:05.769
What? Which is... so fucking lame yeah apparently

00:27:05.769 --> 00:27:09.410
they drove the batmobile to the hotel but of

00:27:09.410 --> 00:27:11.509
course there was cops around the hotel and the

00:27:11.509 --> 00:27:14.069
fight and stuff and the cops are like that is

00:27:14.069 --> 00:27:17.750
not street legal you cannot drive that to times

00:27:17.750 --> 00:27:21.829
square and they got in a big argument and they

00:27:21.829 --> 00:27:24.150
were trying to find another car and whatever

00:27:24.150 --> 00:27:28.170
and they didn't so they had i guess bouncers

00:27:28.170 --> 00:27:32.890
or somebody push the batmobile with with ryan

00:27:32.890 --> 00:27:37.980
in it And they just cut it camera -wise so that

00:27:37.980 --> 00:27:41.180
you couldn't tell. And Ryan said the whole interior

00:27:41.180 --> 00:27:43.660
smelled like gas and it made him sick. And then

00:27:43.660 --> 00:27:47.180
there was no crowd and he just couldn't get into

00:27:47.180 --> 00:27:49.900
it. And even his whole training camp, it just

00:27:49.900 --> 00:27:54.740
didn't go very well. And there's a bunch of videos

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:59.500
of him crying in the car afterwards. What a bunch

00:27:59.500 --> 00:28:02.599
of fucking booty. That I did see. The clips of

00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:06.380
him crying in the car. Like, man, you've lost

00:28:06.380 --> 00:28:10.880
before. I'm not sure what this is. This isn't

00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:14.880
a new feeling for you. Well, and like, usually

00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:17.940
I'm on the boxer side, but I fucking hate Ryan

00:28:17.940 --> 00:28:24.039
Garcia, so fuck him. Yeah. The Batmobile being

00:28:24.039 --> 00:28:27.990
pushed. Reminds me of when he had the horse,

00:28:28.190 --> 00:28:31.170
rode in on a horse that was being led by someone.

00:28:32.089 --> 00:28:37.210
Yeah. Like Barney style. That, yeah, that's fucking

00:28:37.210 --> 00:28:40.690
embarrassing. Nobody has led a horse I've been

00:28:40.690 --> 00:28:47.869
on since I was three. But, not, Ryan Garcia always

00:28:47.869 --> 00:28:50.289
has a million excuses when things don't go well.

00:28:51.210 --> 00:28:55.109
And he lost before, but I think he really thought

00:28:55.109 --> 00:28:57.710
he should be able to beat Roley. I don't think

00:28:57.710 --> 00:29:01.150
he ever thought he was going to beat Tank. Like,

00:29:01.150 --> 00:29:08.430
really. But Roley has... You would think. Well,

00:29:08.650 --> 00:29:11.950
yeah. But you know what? He figured out the magic

00:29:11.950 --> 00:29:14.710
to beating Ryan Garcia. It's keeping your right

00:29:14.710 --> 00:29:20.269
fucking hand up. He spams one punch. He has one

00:29:20.269 --> 00:29:23.630
punch, yeah. Block the punch. I'm really happy

00:29:23.630 --> 00:29:27.390
for Roley. I don't think he's that good a boxer,

00:29:27.529 --> 00:29:31.869
but... He's not. He's entertaining. He is quite

00:29:31.869 --> 00:29:36.029
humorous. Somebody was saying he's like the new

00:29:36.029 --> 00:29:40.410
Adrian Broner. No, he's much more likable, though.

00:29:40.609 --> 00:29:44.369
You think so? I think Adrian Broner is a piece

00:29:44.369 --> 00:29:48.390
of shit. I like Roley's backstory, though. Right,

00:29:48.430 --> 00:29:51.069
because he has a lisp. He spent a lot of time

00:29:51.069 --> 00:29:53.450
fixing the way he talks and he was bullied a

00:29:53.450 --> 00:29:56.289
lot. That's part of why he got into boxing. Ah.

00:29:57.690 --> 00:30:01.750
Broner was a bit more abrasive. Broner just seems

00:30:01.750 --> 00:30:08.509
like an asshole. I mean, he loaded dice. That

00:30:08.509 --> 00:30:12.230
is a very asshole move. That is. I don't know.

00:30:12.250 --> 00:30:15.490
I like Rolly. But I always have a soft spot for

00:30:15.490 --> 00:30:18.029
the, I was getting bullied, so I started boxing.

00:30:19.190 --> 00:30:21.130
Rolly did look good, though. He looked really

00:30:21.130 --> 00:30:23.809
disciplined. He kept his cool. He was fucking

00:30:23.809 --> 00:30:28.950
yoked, too. He was super jacked. Yeah. That impressed

00:30:28.950 --> 00:30:31.589
me, because he was coming up from, what, 135

00:30:31.589 --> 00:30:37.789
when he fought Tank? 140 for Cruz? And then this,

00:30:37.829 --> 00:30:43.279
he didn't look... He looked like skinny fat before.

00:30:43.420 --> 00:30:47.700
Like he wasn't... Yeah. He looked a little soft,

00:30:47.839 --> 00:30:51.799
but he wasn't like flabby. I guess he just couldn't

00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:54.599
put on much muscle or he'd be overweight. Yeah,

00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:58.819
I guess so. Now that Rolly's been unleashed,

00:30:58.839 --> 00:31:06.819
the regular WBA welterweight champion. So who

00:31:06.819 --> 00:31:10.539
does Rolly fight next? That is a really good

00:31:10.539 --> 00:31:15.920
question. Because he has the WBA, so he could

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:21.940
get himself murked by Jaron Ennis if he wanted

00:31:21.940 --> 00:31:25.220
to. He could push that issue. I mean, that's

00:31:25.220 --> 00:31:29.660
a payday. It would be. I think Rowley knows he's

00:31:29.660 --> 00:31:34.019
not amazing. Yeah, he knows he's food. Well,

00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:37.259
we're not at super light anymore. He's a welterweight.

00:31:38.339 --> 00:31:40.940
What he should do is drop that belt and go back

00:31:40.940 --> 00:31:45.140
down to 140. I mean, he could lose at the higher

00:31:45.140 --> 00:31:47.700
weight class once for a big payday. Oh, for sure.

00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:54.220
And then go down to 140. Jin Sasaki? Isn't he

00:31:54.220 --> 00:31:57.460
a little bit of a name out in Japan? He is, yeah.

00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:59.579
He's got a fight coming up soon, too, I think.

00:31:59.799 --> 00:32:03.220
Yeah, I believe he does. Brian Norman. He fights

00:32:03.220 --> 00:32:09.630
on the Leo card, doesn't he? Or are they a different

00:32:09.630 --> 00:32:11.849
card? There's so many Japan cards coming up.

00:32:11.869 --> 00:32:14.910
It's crazy. Now, Brian Norman versus Jin Sasaki.

00:32:15.769 --> 00:32:20.650
I'm not seeing Angelo Leo on this one. Oh, and

00:32:20.650 --> 00:32:23.990
it's in Ota City. I can go to that one. Yeah.

00:32:24.950 --> 00:32:29.029
Try to get an autograph from Brian Norman. I

00:32:29.029 --> 00:32:31.009
have never been able to get anywhere close to

00:32:31.009 --> 00:32:34.849
any of the boxers here. They don't really seem

00:32:34.849 --> 00:32:41.490
to do that. I've seen Jin Sasaki before. He beats

00:32:41.490 --> 00:32:46.990
Rolly. Yeah, he does. I think. But timing -wise,

00:32:47.089 --> 00:32:49.549
that would line up pretty well. Because he fights

00:32:49.549 --> 00:32:53.630
in June, right? Yeah. Yeah, that would line up

00:32:53.630 --> 00:32:56.589
well for later this year. It would be a good

00:32:56.589 --> 00:33:00.829
payday out in Japan for Rolly. Rolly would get

00:33:00.829 --> 00:33:03.250
paid to come to Japan. I bet you he would love

00:33:03.250 --> 00:33:09.269
just being in Tokyo. Yeah, you've made him a

00:33:09.269 --> 00:33:13.049
lot more likable to me now that I know what his

00:33:13.049 --> 00:33:18.250
backstory is. I like the kind of, it's not really

00:33:18.250 --> 00:33:23.329
a sob story, like it's not like, but it makes

00:33:23.329 --> 00:33:28.589
him more relatable. Also, so do you think Haney

00:33:28.589 --> 00:33:31.869
didn't look very good in his fight and Garcia

00:33:31.869 --> 00:33:36.730
lost? Do they still do? Haney Garcia too? I believe

00:33:36.730 --> 00:33:40.009
they are. I think I saw something that both of

00:33:40.009 --> 00:33:41.930
them are still interested in doing it again.

00:33:43.609 --> 00:33:46.470
Do you think people are still interested in watching

00:33:46.470 --> 00:33:52.569
it after this? Maybe they get both of them take

00:33:52.569 --> 00:33:56.130
a tune -up because Haney fucking needs it. Like

00:33:56.130 --> 00:34:00.190
desperately needs it. He needs a sports psychologist.

00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:06.400
and he needs a relatively easy opponent that's

00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:10.340
marketable so that they can sell it to him so

00:34:10.340 --> 00:34:14.639
he can get his confidence back. Yeah. I just

00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:17.760
don't know, man. I think if you give them each

00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:20.500
a tune -up, there's a solid chance that one of

00:34:20.500 --> 00:34:25.400
them fucks it up. I'm not even joking. No, I

00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:27.380
think Garcia's the one that would fuck it up

00:34:27.380 --> 00:34:33.139
more than Haney. probably but i think haney either

00:34:33.139 --> 00:34:36.019
gets his confidence back like you said or he

00:34:36.019 --> 00:34:38.639
does the same thing he's not gonna get hurt either

00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:44.619
way yeah but i don't know honestly i'm not super

00:34:44.619 --> 00:34:50.400
into the rematch anyways but they're i expect

00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:55.480
they're gonna do it just because money yeah yeah

00:34:57.739 --> 00:35:03.199
Speaking of money, Saudi Arabia. Motherfucking

00:35:03.199 --> 00:35:09.059
Canelo card. That card was also ass. Yeah, not

00:35:09.059 --> 00:35:14.739
as good as I was expecting from the three fights

00:35:14.739 --> 00:35:20.199
that I was really interested in. Like, I was

00:35:20.199 --> 00:35:24.199
expecting the Canelo fight to be not good. Yes.

00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:27.079
I was not excited for the main event on this

00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:31.360
one. But, yeah, I agree. A couple of the undercard

00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:36.599
things I thought would be better. I was expecting

00:35:36.599 --> 00:35:41.119
Bakoli, a Jogba. I thought Bakoli was going to

00:35:41.119 --> 00:35:43.860
do better, but the one who proved to be more

00:35:43.860 --> 00:35:47.500
versatile was a Jogba. And somehow they gave

00:35:47.500 --> 00:35:50.699
Bakoli a draw. That shit does not make sense

00:35:50.699 --> 00:35:55.889
to me. It's heavyweights. I was not strongly

00:35:55.889 --> 00:35:59.170
invested in this one at all. But yeah, I kind

00:35:59.170 --> 00:36:02.710
of thought a dog but one too. He did enough,

00:36:02.849 --> 00:36:07.110
which wasn't all that glamorous, but he did enough

00:36:07.110 --> 00:36:11.329
still. It's a pretty boring fight. I'm okay with

00:36:11.329 --> 00:36:16.929
a draw. Yeah, I was struggling to stay awake

00:36:16.929 --> 00:36:20.650
for that one too. Me too. The Saudi cards are...

00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:23.559
Literally the middle of the night, usually, I

00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:28.960
was having trouble. Badu Jack becomes the full

00:36:28.960 --> 00:36:35.539
WBC cruiserweight champ. He gets murdered by

00:36:35.539 --> 00:36:44.880
Zurdo or Opataya. Yeah. It won't be pretty. Sorry,

00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:50.300
Badu. But... I guess... Hopefully one last big

00:36:50.300 --> 00:36:54.380
payday, because Badu Jack's old as balls. Yeah.

00:36:56.059 --> 00:37:00.719
Like, what is he? He's 41. I know he's bigger

00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:03.320
and stuff, but he's a cruiserweight fighting

00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:07.579
at heavy. Or is this cruiser? Sorry. He's not

00:37:07.579 --> 00:37:09.920
a real cruiserweight, though. No, he came up

00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:12.940
from 168. Badu Jack's gone up. Yep. Yeah. So

00:37:12.940 --> 00:37:17.389
he's come up quite a ways. And the size disparity

00:37:17.389 --> 00:37:22.150
was pretty apparent. So this motherfucker's name

00:37:22.150 --> 00:37:29.489
is spelled N -O -R -A -I -R. And it's Noel. What

00:37:29.489 --> 00:37:36.050
the hell? Okay. Anyway, Noel McCallion. He's

00:37:36.050 --> 00:37:38.610
like a full -fledged cruiserweight. And it showed.

00:37:38.929 --> 00:37:43.150
The difference was really clear. Still, congrats

00:37:43.150 --> 00:37:46.289
to Badoo. I'm getting it done. Yeah, I think

00:37:46.289 --> 00:37:50.889
he did just enough. Like always. Badu Jack always

00:37:50.889 --> 00:37:54.570
just barely wins. But it wasn't very exciting,

00:37:54.690 --> 00:37:58.929
even though it was so close. I don't know. Maybe

00:37:58.929 --> 00:38:03.070
I'm just down on everything. But I was expecting

00:38:03.070 --> 00:38:06.429
Badu Jack to be a more fun fight. I'm not sure

00:38:06.429 --> 00:38:10.610
why. You know what else I was expecting to be

00:38:10.610 --> 00:38:14.269
a fun fight? Jaime Munguia versus Bruno Saras.

00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:18.179
I expected better from Jaime Munguia. The time

00:38:18.179 --> 00:38:22.840
he has spent with Eddie Reynoso showed. He looked

00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:27.619
like Diet Canelo. Boring. Yes. He looked boring.

00:38:28.619 --> 00:38:33.340
I was trying to be a little bit more, I don't

00:38:33.340 --> 00:38:38.400
know, forgiving with my word choice. I wish Munguia

00:38:38.400 --> 00:38:43.019
had stayed with Freddie Roach. Or Eric Morales.

00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:47.840
I wanted Freddy Roach Mongia. Like, controlled

00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:53.460
fucking monging is what I wanted. But hopefully

00:38:53.460 --> 00:38:57.039
this isn't what Jaime fights like all the time

00:38:57.039 --> 00:39:00.900
now. I think he was just being cautious. He was

00:39:00.900 --> 00:39:04.280
making sure he didn't get sparked again by some

00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:08.739
fucking unknown Frenchman. Still, regardless

00:39:08.739 --> 00:39:11.739
of how this played out, so when I was talking

00:39:11.739 --> 00:39:17.059
with... Isaac and Nathan about this. We all came

00:39:17.059 --> 00:39:20.980
to a similar conclusion that Jaime Munguia needed

00:39:20.980 --> 00:39:26.739
to spark Bruno in return. Yeah, I said that as

00:39:26.739 --> 00:39:35.579
well. This, whatever, 9 -3, 9 -3, 8 -4, that

00:39:35.579 --> 00:39:41.099
shit is not the same. He still lost. He won the

00:39:41.099 --> 00:39:47.690
fight, but... He lost the story. Yeah. No, like,

00:39:47.789 --> 00:39:50.349
this fight did not make me excited to see the

00:39:50.349 --> 00:39:54.610
next Jaime Munguia fight. Nah. Also, in the series,

00:39:54.690 --> 00:39:56.750
or whatever you want to call it, Saras wins.

00:39:57.269 --> 00:40:03.849
Like, I do want to see Bruno Saras again. I was

00:40:03.849 --> 00:40:08.150
talking to somebody, and they said that They

00:40:08.150 --> 00:40:10.829
got the feeling that Saras didn't want to be

00:40:10.829 --> 00:40:14.329
a professional boxer. That this was kind of like,

00:40:14.449 --> 00:40:18.030
I'm really good at this, so I do it, but this

00:40:18.030 --> 00:40:21.090
isn't what I want to do. And they were talking

00:40:21.090 --> 00:40:25.389
about how he's in university and stuff. So I

00:40:25.389 --> 00:40:27.969
wonder if he's not that committed and that's

00:40:27.969 --> 00:40:33.550
why he's just taking these fights and not really

00:40:33.550 --> 00:40:41.400
in the world stage of boxing. At this point,

00:40:41.440 --> 00:40:46.780
he could. He has his meal ticket now. He should

00:40:46.780 --> 00:40:51.539
be in the conversation for these world -level

00:40:51.539 --> 00:40:55.880
events. He's shown he belongs. Right. Even if

00:40:55.880 --> 00:40:59.980
he did lose by a lot in this fight, he didn't

00:40:59.980 --> 00:41:04.980
look out of place. Or I didn't think he did.

00:41:05.039 --> 00:41:10.289
No, I don't think so either. The game plan from

00:41:10.289 --> 00:41:17.030
the Munguia corner was counter -punching? Wait

00:41:17.030 --> 00:41:20.329
for Bruno to open up offense and counter -punch?

00:41:20.630 --> 00:41:24.570
What the... That's not Jaime Munguia fighting,

00:41:24.570 --> 00:41:26.210
though. That's exactly what I was about to say.

00:41:26.309 --> 00:41:30.550
Who in the fuck has ever accused Jaime Munguia

00:41:30.550 --> 00:41:33.309
of being a counter -puncher? And who wants to

00:41:33.309 --> 00:41:36.809
see that? That is not what Jaime Munguia is all

00:41:36.809 --> 00:41:41.409
about. No Jaime Munguia fan is happy about this

00:41:41.409 --> 00:41:44.250
fight. It shouldn't be, anyway. Just getting

00:41:44.250 --> 00:41:48.769
the win back. Kind of. Like, barely. I guess.

00:41:49.230 --> 00:41:55.769
On a technicality. I don't know. I'm disappointed.

00:41:56.849 --> 00:42:00.570
I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed. Yeah, but

00:42:00.570 --> 00:42:05.309
actually... I'd like to see Saras versus Mbili.

00:42:05.789 --> 00:42:10.369
Because... They both speak French. So the shit

00:42:10.369 --> 00:42:12.829
talk. Oh, some French shit talk. That should

00:42:12.829 --> 00:42:18.630
be pretty spicy. Nice. Honestly, not as bad.

00:42:18.730 --> 00:42:21.789
But this Munguia fight feels similar to the Devin

00:42:21.789 --> 00:42:26.409
Haney fight to me. This looked like Munguia was

00:42:26.409 --> 00:42:28.849
scared if he threw too many punches, he was going

00:42:28.849 --> 00:42:33.440
to get knocked out. That's not how anybody else

00:42:33.440 --> 00:42:35.920
is spinning it, and this is my own fucking opinion,

00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:39.699
but Munguia was scared. Yeah. Or his trainer

00:42:39.699 --> 00:42:44.179
was. Maybe it's more accurate to say the camp

00:42:44.179 --> 00:42:47.739
was scared. Yeah, the team kept telling him,

00:42:47.780 --> 00:42:52.239
like, you know, hang back, don't overextend,

00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:56.320
don't overcommit. If you see an opening, take

00:42:56.320 --> 00:43:01.360
it, but don't do too much. Dude. Who do you think

00:43:01.360 --> 00:43:03.380
you're training right now? Who are you coaching?

00:43:03.420 --> 00:43:09.800
This is your friends coaching you before a first

00:43:09.800 --> 00:43:12.760
date. Don't be yourself. Don't talk about weird

00:43:12.760 --> 00:43:17.500
shit. Don't tell them you like boxing. Go out

00:43:17.500 --> 00:43:22.639
and be fucking normal for a day. That's a good

00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:28.320
analogy. don't let them see who you actually

00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:31.099
are go pretend you're somebody else i have had

00:43:31.099 --> 00:43:35.820
i have received that pep talk before i get that

00:43:35.820 --> 00:43:40.480
pep talk every time i have a date don't do not

00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:44.880
do not be you keep that yeah you a secret for

00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:49.739
the time being don't be a fucking mongoloid well

00:43:49.739 --> 00:43:54.000
that's what they were doing to hymie yeah Go

00:43:54.000 --> 00:43:57.119
out there and be normal and don't be a mong.

00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:07.199
Don't be a mongoloid? Anyways, I was disappointed.

00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:09.820
I don't know who Jaime fights next. And I'll

00:44:09.820 --> 00:44:11.980
watch it. But I hope he doesn't look like this.

00:44:12.519 --> 00:44:15.119
Yeah, I don't want to see this version of Munguia

00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:19.639
anymore. It's not fun. And it's not that good.

00:44:19.960 --> 00:44:24.070
Like, this is not what Munguia is good at. I

00:44:24.070 --> 00:44:28.289
think it's a testament to what people think.

00:44:28.750 --> 00:44:32.869
Because of Canelo, people think Eddie Reynoso

00:44:32.869 --> 00:44:36.269
is like this elite trainer that knows how to

00:44:36.269 --> 00:44:42.130
train anyone and everyone. But he trains one

00:44:42.130 --> 00:44:46.929
style, and that's Canelo. He creates replicas

00:44:46.929 --> 00:44:50.699
of Canelo. Yeah, but... That doesn't make you

00:44:50.699 --> 00:44:53.719
an elite trainer. An elite trainer needs to be

00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:56.079
like, this is what you're good at. This is like,

00:44:56.199 --> 00:44:59.519
you know, they have to specialize the training

00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:02.340
for each person and their style and their abilities.

00:45:02.480 --> 00:45:05.699
Like Robert Garcia. Like Freddie Roach. Yeah.

00:45:05.820 --> 00:45:08.940
Why the fuck is Munguia here? Munguia, go home.

00:45:09.179 --> 00:45:12.760
We liked you better before. Robert Garcia would

00:45:12.760 --> 00:45:16.019
be a good fit for him. I would say that about

00:45:16.019 --> 00:45:20.230
anyone. Robert Garcia. He's my favorite trainer.

00:45:20.469 --> 00:45:26.110
Yeah. Well, speaking of Eddie Reynoso training

00:45:26.110 --> 00:45:30.789
people, Canelo. Fucking... What the hell was

00:45:30.789 --> 00:45:35.230
that? I knew this was gonna be bad. I told people

00:45:35.230 --> 00:45:39.150
not to buy this. Like, I had a couple people

00:45:39.150 --> 00:45:42.010
ask, should I buy this because it's, you know,

00:45:42.070 --> 00:45:44.590
Cinco de Mayo and it's Canelo, and I said no.

00:45:45.829 --> 00:45:50.590
Yeah, don't. It's fucking terrible. I'm so happy

00:45:50.590 --> 00:45:53.670
that I paid for it, of course, because that's

00:45:53.670 --> 00:45:56.869
what I do with every single card ever. I actually

00:45:56.869 --> 00:46:00.550
did pay for this. Pricing differences for us.

00:46:00.650 --> 00:46:02.469
Yeah, I was going to say here it was worth the

00:46:02.469 --> 00:46:05.570
money. For me, it was like triple what you paid.

00:46:06.170 --> 00:46:13.690
Yeah. No, thank you. But, okay. This was a boring

00:46:13.690 --> 00:46:19.099
shit -ass fight across the board. But it's not

00:46:19.099 --> 00:46:22.800
William Skull's fault alone. Canelo also did

00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.860
shit. Like, Canelo didn't throw any punches.

00:46:26.159 --> 00:46:30.440
Canelo has terrible footwork. He is one of the

00:46:30.440 --> 00:46:34.280
slowest motherfuckers on his feet in elite boxing.

00:46:34.800 --> 00:46:41.619
Like, and he can't cut off the ring. And if Canelo

00:46:41.619 --> 00:46:45.599
was some no -name nobody and Skull was the A

00:46:45.599 --> 00:46:49.090
-side... The cards would be the exact opposite.

00:46:49.329 --> 00:46:51.550
And they would have been talking about great

00:46:51.550 --> 00:46:55.230
defense and movement and... The next Floyd Mayweather.

00:46:56.750 --> 00:47:02.849
Or some other defensive analog. Yeah. I do like

00:47:02.849 --> 00:47:07.449
that the ref told them both to fucking box. Several

00:47:07.449 --> 00:47:11.650
times. That was pretty funny. And they managed

00:47:11.650 --> 00:47:15.389
to beat. Rigo Casimero for least punches thrown

00:47:15.389 --> 00:47:18.409
in a 12 round fight. It's a beautiful thing.

00:47:19.730 --> 00:47:24.909
Fucking terrible. The other, the top three lowest,

00:47:25.269 --> 00:47:29.190
or I guess bottom three lowest punch, lowest

00:47:29.190 --> 00:47:33.610
punch output. All three came this weekend. I

00:47:33.610 --> 00:47:36.230
think it was three of the top five. Okay. All

00:47:36.230 --> 00:47:40.730
right. Because, because of Rigo Casimero. But.

00:47:41.739 --> 00:47:46.179
It's just such, such a dog shit fight. Like,

00:47:46.179 --> 00:47:50.219
I think, I think Canelo's washed and he is very

00:47:50.219 --> 00:47:53.579
much cherry picking people. And he knows that

00:47:53.579 --> 00:47:56.320
if he goes 12 rounds, he'll get the decision

00:47:56.320 --> 00:47:59.780
unless something fucking terrible happens. And

00:47:59.780 --> 00:48:02.780
nobody's knocking Canelo out. I still think he

00:48:02.780 --> 00:48:05.059
has a great chin, but I really think Canelo's

00:48:05.059 --> 00:48:08.039
pretty washed and he's just hiding it masterfully.

00:48:10.199 --> 00:48:14.159
I was more of the mind that as soon as the fight

00:48:14.159 --> 00:48:17.239
was over, they pretty much shunted Skull to the

00:48:17.239 --> 00:48:20.860
side, and they brought in Terrence Crawford immediately.

00:48:21.420 --> 00:48:24.820
This isn't the first time that Canelo has had

00:48:24.820 --> 00:48:30.599
a garbage fight, but it ended up that his next

00:48:30.599 --> 00:48:34.360
fight was already booked. When he fought Chavez,

00:48:34.659 --> 00:48:38.519
that fight was absolute trash. Complete trash.

00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:43.360
But once the fight was over, Golovkin, you are

00:48:43.360 --> 00:48:46.820
next, my friend. And then out comes Golovkin,

00:48:46.980 --> 00:48:50.360
the music, and it's like a ring walk. And it

00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:56.079
was this whole spectacle. I think I've said this

00:48:56.079 --> 00:48:58.360
on the Discord a couple times and people disagree

00:48:58.360 --> 00:49:02.699
with me or agree, but I think Crawford Canelo

00:49:02.699 --> 00:49:06.139
is going to be fucking boring as hell. I think

00:49:06.139 --> 00:49:08.000
Crawford's going to pot shot from the outside

00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:10.739
because he knows if he gets hit, it's going to

00:49:10.739 --> 00:49:13.219
hurt because Canelo is so much bigger than him

00:49:13.219 --> 00:49:15.920
and Canelo won't be able to catch him. It's going

00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:18.639
to be this fight, except Crawford throws punches

00:49:18.639 --> 00:49:21.400
that do no damage and Canelo just tanks them.

00:49:21.820 --> 00:49:26.699
Peppers them from range. Yeah, but like, it's

00:49:26.699 --> 00:49:29.659
going to be this kind of fight, except Crawford

00:49:29.659 --> 00:49:33.579
will throw punches that do no damage. It's going

00:49:33.579 --> 00:49:38.039
to be boring. Canelo won't be able to catch Crawford.

00:49:38.159 --> 00:49:41.679
His feet are too slow. He's not good at cutting

00:49:41.679 --> 00:49:44.159
off the ring anymore. Crawford's great at movement.

00:49:45.059 --> 00:49:47.400
Canelo's not gonna catch him, and Crawford's

00:49:47.400 --> 00:49:50.139
not gonna hurt Canelo. I know Crawford hits hard

00:49:50.139 --> 00:49:52.260
for whatever weight class he's supposed to be

00:49:52.260 --> 00:49:57.960
in, but he's not 168. Right. He's had one fight

00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:04.760
at 154, which wasn't, I don't know, demonstrative

00:50:04.760 --> 00:50:09.739
of his... adaptation to the higher weight? Yeah,

00:50:11.099 --> 00:50:13.960
he can't hit that hard at this weight. He's not

00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:18.000
big enough to hurt these guys. Yeah. I think

00:50:18.000 --> 00:50:20.179
it's going to be a dog shit fight. I think that

00:50:20.179 --> 00:50:22.719
fight is going to be terrible. It's a circus

00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:26.260
fight where nobody can do any damage because

00:50:26.260 --> 00:50:28.940
Canelo won't connect and Crawford's not big enough.

00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:37.260
Speaking of dog shit. Saul Canelo Alvarez drops

00:50:37.260 --> 00:50:41.760
on Ring Magazine to pound for pound ranking.

00:50:41.840 --> 00:50:47.519
He's now number eight. Good. What stands out

00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:55.179
is that Turkey a la La La Shake guy, he bought

00:50:55.179 --> 00:50:58.380
Ring Magazine with the Saudi funds or whatever.

00:50:58.699 --> 00:51:05.030
Yeah. And he's also, he has Canelo on contract.

00:51:05.949 --> 00:51:10.230
This was his first fight under the Saudi contract.

00:51:11.050 --> 00:51:14.409
So he just, he dropped him to number eight. Like

00:51:14.409 --> 00:51:17.769
he dropped his own fighter essentially to number

00:51:17.769 --> 00:51:20.610
eight on pound for pound. I thought that was

00:51:20.610 --> 00:51:26.429
special. I mean, Canelo didn't look good. He

00:51:26.429 --> 00:51:29.349
does not look like a pound for pound talent in

00:51:29.349 --> 00:51:32.940
that fight at all. If you made them the same

00:51:32.940 --> 00:51:37.760
size and put him in the ring with Inoue, Canelo

00:51:37.760 --> 00:51:43.460
gets fucked. Number one is Usyk. Two is Inoue.

00:51:43.559 --> 00:51:48.019
Three is Crawford. Four is Beeble. Five is Better

00:51:48.019 --> 00:51:52.239
BF. Six is Bam. Seven is Junto. And then Canelo

00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:55.619
at eight. All those people beat Canelo if you

00:51:55.619 --> 00:51:57.880
magically make them the same size. For sure.

00:51:58.460 --> 00:52:02.320
Shrink Canelo down to... super flyweight, get

00:52:02.320 --> 00:52:05.619
fucking murked by Bam? He would. He would get

00:52:05.619 --> 00:52:12.760
murked by Bam so fast. If he shrunk down to Bantam

00:52:12.760 --> 00:52:15.679
and fought Junto, I think that fight would be

00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:18.619
really boring. Because they're both waiting for

00:52:18.619 --> 00:52:21.019
the other to commit before they throw. Yeah.

00:52:23.260 --> 00:52:25.780
I still think Junto has better footwork, though.

00:52:26.500 --> 00:52:32.489
And he probably has longer reach. But that's

00:52:32.489 --> 00:52:37.230
enough of the Ring Magazine talk. Motherfucking

00:52:37.230 --> 00:52:43.570
Las Vegas. The Japanese saved the weekend. The

00:52:43.570 --> 00:52:51.110
Japanese saved Cinco de Mayo. It was in part

00:52:51.110 --> 00:52:54.690
with the Mexican guy. Yes, of course. And the

00:52:54.690 --> 00:52:59.920
black guy, too. So thank you, everyone. We came

00:52:59.920 --> 00:53:02.400
together to salvage this. It makes the fucking

00:53:02.400 --> 00:53:07.500
dream work. Let me pull up the card. The top

00:53:07.500 --> 00:53:10.280
-ranked card was fun. It was. I really enjoyed

00:53:10.280 --> 00:53:18.739
the top -ranked card. I went to the bar in Tokyo.

00:53:19.860 --> 00:53:23.760
It was fucking packed. So they opened early at

00:53:23.760 --> 00:53:28.039
9 a .m. Which means I did miss that very first

00:53:28.039 --> 00:53:31.179
televised fight here. We didn't get the really

00:53:31.179 --> 00:53:36.039
early ones. So what was his name, Leo, the Japanese

00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:42.519
kid? Haruto? Mikito Nakano. Ah, there we go.

00:53:42.760 --> 00:53:47.739
I'm just accidentally being racist. Anyways,

00:53:47.960 --> 00:53:51.619
I missed him entirely walking from the train

00:53:51.619 --> 00:53:55.050
to the bar. But I got there right at 9 a .m.

00:53:55.050 --> 00:53:57.789
A couple of the other regulars were there. I

00:53:57.789 --> 00:54:02.070
got told to sit front and center at the counter.

00:54:02.409 --> 00:54:05.030
We were assigned seats, I guess, based on how

00:54:05.030 --> 00:54:12.550
early you reserved your spot. And by, I think

00:54:12.550 --> 00:54:15.050
it was 10 o 'clock, they had to go to the bar

00:54:15.050 --> 00:54:17.730
next door that was closed because it was 10 a

00:54:17.730 --> 00:54:21.940
.m. and borrow chairs. to bring into the bar

00:54:21.940 --> 00:54:25.960
we were sitting in. A fucking fire hazard. Oh,

00:54:26.079 --> 00:54:30.659
yeah. If the fire department came by, it would

00:54:30.659 --> 00:54:33.420
have been bad, but they didn't, so it was okay.

00:54:33.940 --> 00:54:36.380
Yeah, it was great, though. The atmosphere was

00:54:36.380 --> 00:54:39.260
really fun. I'm glad I got my ass out of bed

00:54:39.260 --> 00:54:43.059
and went to Tokyo. Emiliano Vargas continues

00:54:43.059 --> 00:54:47.320
the hot streak. Late opponent, though. They didn't

00:54:47.320 --> 00:54:51.949
have... It was... the legendary tba for quite

00:54:51.949 --> 00:54:57.010
some time so stoppage in two but that's what

00:54:57.010 --> 00:55:03.329
you're supposed to do he looked good yeah one

00:55:03.329 --> 00:55:08.070
uh to carry on a joke from b -sides is to say

00:55:08.070 --> 00:55:11.269
you see dalton dalton smith this is how you're

00:55:11.269 --> 00:55:13.670
supposed to do it this is how it's supposed to

00:55:13.670 --> 00:55:18.260
be done you see You see. I think ours is Cambosis.

00:55:18.880 --> 00:55:23.519
Yeah. Same. Cambosis. You see how this is what

00:55:23.519 --> 00:55:25.519
you're supposed to do to Richardson Hitchens.

00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:29.119
For the love of everything, anything and everything

00:55:29.119 --> 00:55:33.940
that you find sacred. I put that on fucking Josh's

00:55:33.940 --> 00:55:39.639
life. Oh, poor Josh. I like Josh. I would be

00:55:39.639 --> 00:55:45.110
sad. Who else? Rohan Polanco. Against Fabian

00:55:45.110 --> 00:55:53.849
Maidana, it left a bit to be desired. I don't

00:55:53.849 --> 00:55:57.909
know. I expected better of Rohan, but what are

00:55:57.909 --> 00:56:02.769
you going to do, I guess? I thought he looked

00:56:02.769 --> 00:56:07.130
good. I was expecting him to bomb out Maidana,

00:56:07.230 --> 00:56:10.909
just because Maidana's on the downslope. I guess.

00:56:11.409 --> 00:56:15.050
Maidana's tough, though. Sure. I don't know.

00:56:15.070 --> 00:56:17.769
I thought it was a fun fight. Lots of punches

00:56:17.769 --> 00:56:23.030
thrown. Nobody fell asleep. It was good. Yeah,

00:56:24.070 --> 00:56:28.690
no sleeping on this one. Rafael Espinoza. Just

00:56:28.690 --> 00:56:38.590
mauls. Edward Vasquez. Holy shit. Hey, Munguia,

00:56:38.750 --> 00:56:41.570
do you see how you're supposed to mong out? Do

00:56:41.570 --> 00:56:44.289
you see what monging out looks like? This is

00:56:44.289 --> 00:56:48.949
monging out. Remember your roots. Yeah. Fucking

00:56:48.949 --> 00:56:56.070
remember who you are, Simba. I love Raphael.

00:56:56.070 --> 00:57:03.630
I do too. His proportions make no sense. And

00:57:03.630 --> 00:57:06.989
just like Fedora, he doesn't use them properly.

00:57:07.769 --> 00:57:13.429
But man, those up -close uppercuts. That Espinoza

00:57:13.429 --> 00:57:18.170
throws. Brutal. Fucking great. I love everything

00:57:18.170 --> 00:57:23.389
about it. He throws both lead hand and rear hand,

00:57:23.570 --> 00:57:27.610
but he just throws uppercuts. Why are you so

00:57:27.610 --> 00:57:33.949
fucking tall? And they just, they seem to catch

00:57:33.949 --> 00:57:38.110
people off guard so much. I guess defending uppercuts

00:57:38.110 --> 00:57:40.889
seems like it's hard. People don't see them coming

00:57:40.889 --> 00:57:43.849
or something. Yeah, if you're shelled up, you

00:57:43.849 --> 00:57:47.690
don't see them, and they split the guard. Yeah.

00:57:48.690 --> 00:57:51.289
You've got to do the George Foreman cross block.

00:57:52.130 --> 00:57:55.409
You've got to turn one of your hands. Down? Yeah.

00:57:55.530 --> 00:57:58.050
Under your chin? Yep, so that you can block it

00:57:58.050 --> 00:58:00.150
on its way up. But then that opens you up for

00:58:00.150 --> 00:58:02.909
hooks. Absolutely. Hooks for days. That's the

00:58:02.909 --> 00:58:07.110
trade -off. Well, and Espinosa throws hooks fairly

00:58:07.110 --> 00:58:10.019
well, too. Yeah, he just spams power punches

00:58:10.019 --> 00:58:13.079
because he's a goddamn Mexican. That's what they

00:58:13.079 --> 00:58:17.119
do. That's what we do. That's why we love them.

00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:21.079
God, just throw all of the punches that are not

00:58:21.079 --> 00:58:28.659
jabs. That's all we need. All these, not all

00:58:28.659 --> 00:58:30.219
these fights, but these fights were all pretty

00:58:30.219 --> 00:58:33.400
one -sided, but still, after the dog shit cards

00:58:33.400 --> 00:58:36.079
earlier this week, I loved every second of this.

00:58:36.360 --> 00:58:40.780
Yeah, this. Top rank, as much as I like to clown

00:58:40.780 --> 00:58:46.019
on them from time to time. They saved it. Yeah,

00:58:46.079 --> 00:58:48.579
top rank cards are usually really one -sided,

00:58:48.619 --> 00:58:53.679
so they can be boring that way. But at least

00:58:53.679 --> 00:59:03.260
everybody was there to win in Vegas. His contemporaries,

00:59:03.260 --> 00:59:07.920
Espinoza's Nick Ball with a WBA. Angelo Leo with

00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:14.219
the IBF. And Stephen Fulton with the WBC. Word

00:59:14.219 --> 00:59:16.500
on the street is that Stephen Fulton is moving

00:59:16.500 --> 00:59:23.840
up to fight Oshaki Foster. Wow, that's kind of

00:59:23.840 --> 00:59:26.940
weird. I hope it's like a champion in recess

00:59:26.940 --> 00:59:28.679
kind of thing and he's just going up for the

00:59:28.679 --> 00:59:32.719
one. Because I would prefer that Fulton stays

00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:35.599
at 26. There's a lot of good fights to be made

00:59:35.599 --> 00:59:40.800
here. He's scared of Inouye coming up. I had

00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:44.559
the same thought when someone said, oh, he's

00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:47.179
going to be going up to fight Foster at 1 .30.

00:59:47.340 --> 00:59:49.619
I'm like, oh, so he doesn't want to be there

00:59:49.619 --> 00:59:53.880
when Inouye arrives. Okay, got it. Fair. Yeah,

00:59:53.980 --> 00:59:56.539
absolutely fair. I wouldn't want to take that

00:59:56.539 --> 00:59:59.639
ass kicking twice either. Just looking at everyone

00:59:59.639 --> 01:00:04.239
else, I would highly rate Fulton's chances. Against

01:00:04.239 --> 01:00:06.360
pretty much anybody in the division. Maybe not

01:00:06.360 --> 01:00:12.179
Espinosa. Because of the height and reach. I

01:00:12.179 --> 01:00:15.159
think Espinosa is probably the person to beat

01:00:15.159 --> 01:00:18.960
at 126. I can't think of anybody who I am sure

01:00:18.960 --> 01:00:24.659
beats Espinosa. I got nobody. No. The only way

01:00:24.659 --> 01:00:27.920
would be Nick Ball. Because it would be really

01:00:27.920 --> 01:00:30.099
fucking weird with the height difference. They're

01:00:30.099 --> 01:00:33.829
like a foot apart. Yeah, but I don't think Nick

01:00:33.829 --> 01:00:38.429
Ball... How's Nick Ball beating Espinoza? I guess

01:00:38.429 --> 01:00:43.969
to the body? Yeah, bull rush to the body. I don't

01:00:43.969 --> 01:00:46.050
know. That's just going to walk him into uppercuts

01:00:46.050 --> 01:00:49.630
all day, isn't it? And he's right at uppercut

01:00:49.630 --> 01:00:55.289
height. I don't think Nick Ball has much of a

01:00:55.289 --> 01:00:57.369
chance against Espinoza. I think it would be

01:00:57.369 --> 01:00:59.989
exciting while it lasted, but I got Espinoza

01:00:59.989 --> 01:01:05.869
by KO. Espinalza Leo might be very interesting.

01:01:06.110 --> 01:01:10.869
I think Leo loses, but maybe not. Maybe he gets

01:01:10.869 --> 01:01:15.389
real lucky. I'd like to see Angelo Leo and Stephen

01:01:15.389 --> 01:01:18.989
Fulton rematch and unify their belts. That would

01:01:18.989 --> 01:01:27.309
be cool to me. Yeah. But Leo, he's fighting Kameda

01:01:27.309 --> 01:01:31.769
next, right? I believe so, in Japan. Yeah, soon.

01:01:32.030 --> 01:01:35.050
And Leo should win that, but you never know.

01:01:36.489 --> 01:01:40.269
Tomoki's got mileage on him. Yeah, I think Leo

01:01:40.269 --> 01:01:49.070
should win. Yeah. 42 -4. Tomato's old, but I

01:01:49.070 --> 01:01:55.090
think he's still got pop. He's 33. His losses

01:01:55.090 --> 01:01:59.630
haven't been hard ones, so... Like, KOs, I mean.

01:02:00.139 --> 01:02:05.559
He has a funny box rock picture, Kameda. He looks

01:02:05.559 --> 01:02:10.739
like an action figure of a news anchor. Yeah.

01:02:12.179 --> 01:02:18.659
Or like the old -timey anime, like that slightly

01:02:18.659 --> 01:02:25.380
older character. The senpai of the group? Yeah.

01:02:26.590 --> 01:02:29.949
Of the kid that gives him not -so -great advice.

01:02:31.449 --> 01:02:36.050
He's like a reformed hooligan. Yeah. Yeah. You

01:02:36.050 --> 01:02:39.489
gotta get your life together. I know the type.

01:02:40.469 --> 01:02:44.969
Yeah, that's in Osaka, or I would go. Osaka has

01:02:44.969 --> 01:02:47.969
to be a two -day trip, and it's just... I can't

01:02:47.969 --> 01:02:50.570
make it work. Well, I can't make it work right

01:02:50.570 --> 01:02:54.260
now at work. I really wanted to see Leo. And

01:02:54.260 --> 01:02:59.400
the main event... Now, there's a problem here.

01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:04.420
This is the second time Inoue's been dropped

01:03:04.420 --> 01:03:07.300
in the first round. He doesn't look hurt. Second

01:03:07.300 --> 01:03:09.719
round. Oh, he's in the second round this time.

01:03:10.000 --> 01:03:13.539
Still early. So he got dropped early. Yeah. He

01:03:13.539 --> 01:03:15.860
doesn't look hurt. By the exact same punch. Yes.

01:03:17.260 --> 01:03:19.480
Exactly what I was... Yeah, he doesn't look hurt,

01:03:19.559 --> 01:03:24.909
but he's falling for it every time. Yep. This

01:03:24.909 --> 01:03:29.190
is the problem. Yeah, well, I've said before,

01:03:29.449 --> 01:03:32.469
Inouye gets hit. And it's why I don't want him

01:03:32.469 --> 01:03:34.869
moving up in weight like this, because eventually

01:03:34.869 --> 01:03:38.489
he's just going to stay down. He is not crazy

01:03:38.489 --> 01:03:41.909
superhuman defense. Inouye's defense is his offense,

01:03:42.050 --> 01:03:46.090
and that leaves you open. Yeah, the old Freddie

01:03:46.090 --> 01:03:49.920
Roach school of training. Yeah, but that's what

01:03:49.920 --> 01:03:52.360
makes him exciting. If Inoue didn't get hit,

01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:55.780
he wouldn't be my favorite. If there is no danger,

01:03:56.000 --> 01:04:00.840
I don't care. This was a great fight. This was

01:04:00.840 --> 01:04:05.800
so exciting. So fun. So much fun. And everybody

01:04:05.800 --> 01:04:09.619
was saying Cardenas is trash because he was on

01:04:09.619 --> 01:04:14.099
Probox. I disagree. The Probox fighters who escape

01:04:14.099 --> 01:04:18.199
are fucking awesome. I'm sorry. Angelo Leo's

01:04:18.199 --> 01:04:21.500
a fucking world champion right now? Yeah. And

01:04:21.500 --> 01:04:24.260
I think Cardenas will be eventually, too. Yeah.

01:04:24.460 --> 01:04:29.179
Josh put it really well on B -Sides when he said,

01:04:29.320 --> 01:04:34.260
he's a worthy contender for a title, but not

01:04:34.260 --> 01:04:38.260
for Inoue. And I think that part was disproven.

01:04:38.579 --> 01:04:46.159
He has the fucking chutzpah to keep up with.

01:04:46.719 --> 01:04:50.559
Elite talent. Very awesome. Well, and Cardenas

01:04:50.559 --> 01:04:55.039
looked good. Yeah. Once Inouye kind of did the

01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:58.139
shit, like, I got hit, I got to turn it up a

01:04:58.139 --> 01:05:00.280
little, I got to keep him off me, I got to...

01:05:00.280 --> 01:05:05.019
Cardenas started wearing down, and he just started

01:05:05.019 --> 01:05:09.039
spamming that left hook, hoping it landed. And

01:05:09.039 --> 01:05:12.980
to Inouye's credit, it didn't land twice. Yeah.

01:05:14.989 --> 01:05:17.969
But I thought Inoue still looked great. Like,

01:05:17.969 --> 01:05:21.710
the movement, the power, the timing, it's all

01:05:21.710 --> 01:05:25.690
still there. Shot selection was... That's how

01:05:25.690 --> 01:05:29.210
you broke him down. And he used his jab a lot

01:05:29.210 --> 01:05:31.469
this fight, too. He doesn't always jab that much.

01:05:32.530 --> 01:05:37.670
He usually doesn't have to. Yeah, no need. No,

01:05:37.690 --> 01:05:40.210
this was a great fight. I fucking loved every

01:05:40.210 --> 01:05:44.639
minute of it. When he went down, the bar went

01:05:44.639 --> 01:05:49.519
crazy. Like, I was at the Neary fight, and it

01:05:49.519 --> 01:05:53.460
went silent. But this time in the bar, where

01:05:53.460 --> 01:05:56.500
it's less public, kind of, everybody started

01:05:56.500 --> 01:06:01.639
yelling at the TV. It was hilarious. It went

01:06:01.639 --> 01:06:06.099
silent for Neary? Well, I was in the arena. Oh,

01:06:06.119 --> 01:06:10.880
I see. I think the difference is that... Close

01:06:10.880 --> 01:06:15.659
doors. Well, in the bar, they know Inoue can't

01:06:15.659 --> 01:06:18.440
hear him, obviously. But I think in the arena,

01:06:18.579 --> 01:06:22.019
everybody was like, oh, no. But in the bar, they're

01:06:22.019 --> 01:06:28.199
like, you fucking idiot. I see. Yeah, he's been

01:06:28.199 --> 01:06:32.400
doing that since round one. It's the same shit

01:06:32.400 --> 01:06:35.619
that happened with Neri. It was the exact same

01:06:35.619 --> 01:06:39.900
punch. I think as far as landing on Inoue, the

01:06:39.900 --> 01:06:45.000
jig is up. Left hook, kind of from that side

01:06:45.000 --> 01:06:48.579
angle early on before he warms up. And if you

01:06:48.579 --> 01:06:50.760
can hit him hard enough, maybe he'll stay down.

01:06:51.179 --> 01:06:54.659
But Inoue has a chin, and he recovers well. I

01:06:54.659 --> 01:06:56.500
don't care what anybody says, he has a chin.

01:06:56.760 --> 01:06:59.860
Yeah, absolutely. Like I said, when he, both

01:06:59.860 --> 01:07:03.869
Neri... Is known for having. Pretty heavy hands.

01:07:04.570 --> 01:07:09.050
And Cardenas caught him. Pretty flush. And in

01:07:09.050 --> 01:07:12.969
a way was not hurt. He was like surprised. But

01:07:12.969 --> 01:07:17.250
he wasn't hurt. By any stretch. I do like how.

01:07:18.150 --> 01:07:20.949
How well he composes himself. Before he gets

01:07:20.949 --> 01:07:24.429
up. In a way he's not doing that weird. Jump

01:07:24.429 --> 01:07:28.409
up at four seconds. And you know. Possibly look

01:07:28.409 --> 01:07:33.309
wobbly. And maybe get. call like get stopped

01:07:33.309 --> 01:07:37.409
yeah he takes his full eight seconds he stands

01:07:37.409 --> 01:07:39.849
up carefully this was at the end of the round

01:07:39.849 --> 01:07:44.409
so he got a whole minute afterwards so I saw

01:07:44.409 --> 01:07:48.289
probably pro box guys again discussing it so

01:07:48.289 --> 01:07:53.210
Inoue fights MJ next yes MJ has the same trainer

01:07:53.210 --> 01:07:58.789
as Cardenas is it uh Joel Diaz I forget I'm not

01:07:58.789 --> 01:08:03.599
good at names you know that yeah but yeah uh

01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:06.480
whatever team it is it's the same it's the whole

01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:09.679
same team and like these guys definitely had

01:08:09.679 --> 01:08:13.719
a good strategy against in a way and now they've

01:08:13.719 --> 01:08:17.319
got to fight them once i mean obviously mj hasn't

01:08:17.319 --> 01:08:19.939
but the coach and everybody has and they've seen

01:08:19.939 --> 01:08:25.020
it in person i don't know that's i still think

01:08:25.020 --> 01:08:28.380
in a way wins but that could be a bit of a problem

01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:38.140
MJ losing to Marlon Topalas, something that I've

01:08:38.140 --> 01:08:41.060
tried to impress upon people is that that was

01:08:41.060 --> 01:08:44.720
an exception. That's not the rule of what MJ

01:08:44.720 --> 01:08:49.859
is actually like. The guy can fucking fight,

01:08:49.960 --> 01:08:52.699
and losing to Topalas, he was just completely

01:08:52.699 --> 01:08:57.960
off. So don't write him off thinking... you're

01:08:57.960 --> 01:08:59.920
going to get another version, the same version

01:08:59.920 --> 01:09:04.899
that fought Marlon. Oof. Oh, I think it's a very

01:09:04.899 --> 01:09:09.939
dangerous fight. Like, I also like MJ. I just...

01:09:09.939 --> 01:09:14.960
In a way, I think is better. Yeah, absolutely.

01:09:15.300 --> 01:09:20.699
I absolutely agree. But we'll see, I guess. Oh,

01:09:20.720 --> 01:09:23.680
MJ has another fight lined up. I hate that they're

01:09:23.680 --> 01:09:27.739
doing this. So what happens if... Louis Castillo

01:09:27.739 --> 01:09:31.119
somehow manages to upset him. I'm just saying.

01:09:31.340 --> 01:09:34.100
Throw MJ in the trash if that's what happens.

01:09:36.279 --> 01:09:40.800
People get sparked, guys. No one thought Saras

01:09:40.800 --> 01:09:47.479
was gonna fuck up Jaime. Yeah, that was a foregone

01:09:47.479 --> 01:09:51.560
conclusion as far as we were concerned. But,

01:09:51.619 --> 01:09:58.319
I don't know. The training team having already

01:09:58.319 --> 01:10:03.060
fought in a way makes me a little nervous, a

01:10:03.060 --> 01:10:07.560
little more nervous about the MJ fight. And Inoue

01:10:07.560 --> 01:10:10.140
doesn't belong in this weight class. I know he

01:10:10.140 --> 01:10:12.520
doesn't look that small in there, but he's not

01:10:12.520 --> 01:10:17.720
really that size. So his power is carrying him?

01:10:19.560 --> 01:10:23.810
Well, I think his power isn't as good. Like,

01:10:23.810 --> 01:10:25.970
these guys can take a hit better. They're bigger.

01:10:26.529 --> 01:10:31.189
I don't know if Inoue... He can break them down,

01:10:31.489 --> 01:10:35.590
but I don't think Inoue can one -shot MJ in any

01:10:35.590 --> 01:10:40.310
universe. Inoue can break them down, and he might

01:10:40.310 --> 01:10:44.130
get a KO, but I don't think he has one -hit power

01:10:44.130 --> 01:10:48.250
to stop MJ. He'd have to get lucky. Catch the

01:10:48.250 --> 01:10:52.319
off button? Like 16 years ago when Manny Pacquiao

01:10:52.319 --> 01:10:58.939
got Ricky Hatton? That was fucking awesome. 16

01:10:58.939 --> 01:11:01.539
years ago when Pacquiao was getting a title fight.

01:11:02.840 --> 01:11:07.640
Makes perfect sense. Anyways, Inoue does it again.

01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:11.239
Nobody can bitch that he only fights in Japan

01:11:11.239 --> 01:11:16.020
now. What does that matter? Nobody bitches that

01:11:16.020 --> 01:11:18.359
Canelo had never fought outside... Well, I guess

01:11:18.359 --> 01:11:21.640
he's fought in two countries, but... Nobody bitched

01:11:21.640 --> 01:11:24.159
that Canelo had never fought outside North America.

01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:27.539
And in Vegas, for the most part. For the longest

01:11:27.539 --> 01:11:31.260
time. Like, this Saudi fight was his first one

01:11:31.260 --> 01:11:34.359
outside of North America. A bunch of the Americans

01:11:34.359 --> 01:11:37.359
have never fought anywhere except America. I

01:11:37.359 --> 01:11:41.539
don't know... Yeah, but I'm just saying. Also,

01:11:41.699 --> 01:11:44.279
I don't think... the uh ticket sales were very

01:11:44.279 --> 01:11:48.060
good for in a way in comparison to what he does

01:11:48.060 --> 01:11:51.060
in japan i yeah i would not expect that they

01:11:51.060 --> 01:11:55.560
would be like i didn't i didn't see actual numbers

01:11:55.560 --> 01:11:59.779
but i bet you he sold half as many tickets as

01:11:59.779 --> 01:12:02.340
he sells here ticket prices are probably twice

01:12:02.340 --> 01:12:05.560
as much though so i guess it all works out but

01:12:05.560 --> 01:12:11.840
we are quite a ways on time Oh, shit. Yeah, fuck

01:12:11.840 --> 01:12:15.800
that. We were on a roll. Anyways, Inoue saved

01:12:15.800 --> 01:12:20.199
Cinco de Mayo. Yeah. The Japan versus Mexico

01:12:20.199 --> 01:12:23.520
rivalry is the best in boxing right now. As you

01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:27.180
put it. Yeah, 100%. I think that is the only

01:12:27.180 --> 01:12:30.460
two countries that I care about the rivalry right

01:12:30.460 --> 01:12:34.220
now. Like, Mexico -Puerto Rico's dead. Yeah,

01:12:34.260 --> 01:12:39.199
it is. America just... fights amongst itself

01:12:39.199 --> 01:12:45.039
yeah it's regional rivalries yeah uh i guess

01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:48.039
britain america and the heavyweights but that's

01:12:48.039 --> 01:12:50.079
pretty dead there's no american heavyweights

01:12:50.079 --> 01:12:55.279
right now sad times uh some quick notes before

01:12:55.279 --> 01:12:58.920
we get out of here coming up on the 14th yeah

01:12:58.920 --> 01:13:01.640
that's gonna this is gonna start at like midnight

01:13:01.640 --> 01:13:08.039
or one uh sam goodman is back Given that he's

01:13:08.039 --> 01:13:11.279
the headline, the card starts around midnight

01:13:11.279 --> 01:13:16.920
or 1 on the west coast of the US. Expect attack

01:13:16.920 --> 01:13:21.819
on like 4 -5 hours before you get to the main

01:13:21.819 --> 01:13:26.079
event. What is it with Australia in these Wednesday

01:13:26.079 --> 01:13:30.060
cards? Fucking weird. I don't know. Probox did

01:13:30.060 --> 01:13:34.979
it and I liked it. Yeah, but Probox isn't...

01:13:35.920 --> 01:13:41.619
Sam Goodman. Sam Goodman is Provox, though. Should

01:13:41.619 --> 01:13:49.399
be. Fair enough. Also, on the 17th, Johnny Fisher

01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:54.340
versus David Allen, the rematch. I'm actually

01:13:54.340 --> 01:13:57.260
kind of excited for this one. I hope the white

01:13:57.260 --> 01:14:00.819
rhino pulls it out again. Yeah, they fucked him

01:14:00.819 --> 01:14:06.050
in Saudi so bad. And then also on the 17th, the

01:14:06.050 --> 01:14:09.409
Fisher Allen, that's a British card, so that'll

01:14:09.409 --> 01:14:13.770
be around midday West Coast time. And in the

01:14:13.770 --> 01:14:20.170
evening, this is on fucking UFC Fight Pass. So

01:14:20.170 --> 01:14:25.109
weird. Do better, Tom Loeffler. Do better. Mizuki,

01:14:25.270 --> 01:14:31.399
a .k .a. Mimi, the anime girl, she's back. She's

01:14:31.399 --> 01:14:36.420
fun. If you don't know who she is, you should

01:14:36.420 --> 01:14:40.579
tune in. She is the only woman that won an award

01:14:40.579 --> 01:14:44.479
at the Japanese Boxing Commission Awards Night

01:14:44.479 --> 01:14:50.619
this year. She showed up in a black dress and

01:14:50.619 --> 01:14:55.279
her pink hair. That's pretty sweet. That's pretty

01:14:55.279 --> 01:14:59.479
sweet. If Mimi is not enough to bring you out,

01:14:59.579 --> 01:15:02.060
Sergei Bohachuk is also going to be competing.

01:15:02.239 --> 01:15:06.300
So he is an exciting fighter to watch. And if

01:15:06.300 --> 01:15:09.840
you stick around for Mizuki, then you should

01:15:09.840 --> 01:15:20.159
have a good time. Yeah. All right. Let me. You've

01:15:20.159 --> 01:15:22.520

01:16:34.569 --> 01:16:39.609
have a note here? Yeah, so the Leafs are playing

01:16:39.609 --> 01:16:42.750
the Florida Panthers, who are now the home of

01:16:42.750 --> 01:16:45.689
rat -faced Brad Marchand, who I fucking hate.

01:16:46.390 --> 01:16:50.329
Leafs are up in the series 2 -0, although I just

01:16:50.329 --> 01:16:52.770
checked the score and they're now tied in the

01:16:52.770 --> 01:17:02.590
third. But, fuck Brad Marchand, go Buds. Go Buds?

01:17:02.630 --> 01:17:05.850
Is that the Maple Leafs? Yeah, they're the Leafs.

01:17:06.279 --> 01:17:12.920
Oh, they're the buds? Yeah. I gotcha. I don't

01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:17.739
know a whole lot about hockey, but I don't know.

01:17:18.460 --> 01:17:22.239
I just so happen to have, I was doing this for

01:17:22.239 --> 01:17:25.060
classwork, I had these so that I had something

01:17:25.060 --> 01:17:30.840
to read to do a voice track. So I'm going to

01:17:30.840 --> 01:17:34.520
read Advice from a Glacier. Carve your own path.

01:17:35.310 --> 01:17:39.149
go slow, channel your strengths, smooth the way

01:17:39.149 --> 01:17:42.550
for others, keep moving forward, avoid meltdowns,

01:17:42.550 --> 01:17:48.789
and be cool. Nice. Solid advice. Yep. It's with

01:17:48.789 --> 01:17:52.550
the hockey theme. Yeah, yeah, that's why I picked

01:17:52.550 --> 01:17:58.329
it. All right, well, with that, boxing before

01:17:58.329 --> 01:18:03.149
dark, the sun is setting. Cue the cowboy music.

01:18:06.680 --> 01:18:07.880
See y 'all next week.
