WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:29.949
This shit ain't nothing to me, man. That is a

00:00:29.949 --> 00:00:34.869
nice shirt, Leo. I really enjoy it. Good? Oh,

00:00:35.030 --> 00:00:38.729
man. Boxing before dark. Boxing before dark.

00:00:39.609 --> 00:00:42.729
Boxing before dark. If you say it three times,

00:00:42.950 --> 00:00:47.509
I'll appear in your room behind you. Oh, man.

00:00:47.649 --> 00:00:50.829
Well, I'm actually wearing my Inoue, my chibi

00:00:50.829 --> 00:00:57.070
Inoue shirt. You can check that out on lvx .be

00:00:57.070 --> 00:01:02.600
slash shop. It's super cute. I tried to replicate

00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:08.659
it with David Benavidez. Not as cute. Not as

00:01:08.659 --> 00:01:13.480
cute. It's not. But I tried my best. But, Shinada,

00:01:13.540 --> 00:01:16.200
how are you doing? How's Japan treating you this

00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:20.599
week? Actually, the weather is finally not fucking

00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:25.439
terrible. I think we're down to like 25, 27 highs.

00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:31.859
Which I much prefer over 35. I cannot wait until

00:01:31.859 --> 00:01:35.099
winter. I want it to be winter. I want it to

00:01:35.099 --> 00:01:38.159
be 5 degrees outside so I can wear long sleeves

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.900
and not sweat when I walk to work. Although when

00:01:42.900 --> 00:01:46.879
I get to work, they'll have it 26 in the office

00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.599
because Japanese people have poor circulation.

00:01:50.739 --> 00:01:58.930
Man, I wish I got down to 5 here. I have to say,

00:01:59.049 --> 00:02:01.849
and I knew this would happen, I miss winter so

00:02:01.849 --> 00:02:05.290
badly, which sounds very stereotypical, but actual

00:02:05.290 --> 00:02:08.650
snow that you can go out and play in, I miss

00:02:08.650 --> 00:02:13.770
it so much. I enjoyed every winter. When I was

00:02:13.770 --> 00:02:17.169
in anywhere that had Winter Wonderland, I always

00:02:17.169 --> 00:02:22.449
enjoyed it. Yeah, I mean, the minus 30 sucks

00:02:22.449 --> 00:02:27.759
ass, but minus 10? Minus 10 is nice. I don't

00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:34.900
care what anyone says. You know what I think

00:02:34.900 --> 00:02:39.879
might be nice? Nakatani dropping his belts. Wait,

00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:44.800
you have something here for 1FC. Yeah, so I've

00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.879
been watching the Friday Night Fights. And there

00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:50.419
was one last night that was fucking awesome.

00:02:50.620 --> 00:02:54.259
And I'm going to butcher the names. But Folicit

00:02:54.259 --> 00:03:01.039
versus Redhoe was a war. I overemphasized the

00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.900
hoe, I'm sure. Redhoe. I would too, because it's

00:03:04.900 --> 00:03:09.780
funny. It was a war. It was great. Friday Night

00:03:09.780 --> 00:03:13.620
Fights, man. It's not MMA, which is a selling

00:03:13.620 --> 00:03:17.569
point. kickboxing or muay thai and they're on

00:03:17.569 --> 00:03:21.710
youtube for free and they're amazing even if

00:03:21.710 --> 00:03:24.150
you can't watch them at the time because it's

00:03:24.150 --> 00:03:26.449
not a bad time for me but i guess in america

00:03:26.449 --> 00:03:29.930
it's probably ass but you you should watch them

00:03:29.930 --> 00:03:33.110
like when you're bored on a tuesday or something

00:03:33.110 --> 00:03:38.310
i say it every week on uh ultimate effing casuals

00:03:38.310 --> 00:03:43.740
friday friday fights You are the one who convinced

00:03:43.740 --> 00:03:47.060
me, and I'm hooked now. I fucking love 1FC. I

00:03:47.060 --> 00:03:49.020
actually bought a ticket for their big November

00:03:49.020 --> 00:03:55.240
thing here in Tokyo. I get to see, what's his

00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:59.819
name? The Iron Man. Rod Tang. Yeah, I get to

00:03:59.819 --> 00:04:01.819
see Rod Tang. I know he's passed it and everything

00:04:01.819 --> 00:04:03.879
else, but I'm super excited about it. I would

00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:09.080
still be excited to see him. Yeah. I got ass

00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:12.490
tickets, but, you know. You're still going to

00:04:12.490 --> 00:04:18.689
be there. Yeah. Okay, now to Nakatani dropping

00:04:18.689 --> 00:04:23.529
his belts. Is this a sign he's moving up? Oh,

00:04:23.529 --> 00:04:26.250
that's 100 % what it is. Yeah, he dropped his

00:04:26.250 --> 00:04:29.389
belts because he's moving up. Now, one thing

00:04:29.389 --> 00:04:33.050
I will say that I really like is everybody complains

00:04:33.050 --> 00:04:36.750
about people holding belts hostages. Nakatani's

00:04:36.750 --> 00:04:42.259
not doing that at all. I, like... How do I put

00:04:42.259 --> 00:04:47.000
it? I like the straightforwardness of it. Like,

00:04:47.019 --> 00:04:49.439
yeah, I'm gonna move up in my next fight so you

00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:53.160
fuckers can fight over these belts now. I don't

00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.139
want them. I don't need them. Yeah. Nope. I'm

00:04:57.139 --> 00:04:59.379
gonna go get my big payday, get my ass kicked

00:04:59.379 --> 00:05:04.040
by Inoue. Alright, so you're gonna be riding

00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:07.060
for Inoue in that one? Yeah, of course. Oh, man,

00:05:07.180 --> 00:05:10.969
I was feeling the underdog with, uh... underdog's

00:05:10.969 --> 00:05:16.209
counterpunch yeah no i i don't think nakatani

00:05:16.209 --> 00:05:21.470
is as good as people think he is perhaps i i

00:05:21.470 --> 00:05:24.290
think nakatani's been fighting a lot of cans

00:05:24.290 --> 00:05:29.569
and has really built up the um the image yeah

00:05:29.569 --> 00:05:31.930
and i think he's really i do think he's good

00:05:31.930 --> 00:05:35.230
like really good but i don't i don't think he

00:05:35.230 --> 00:05:41.769
can beat in a way Inoue's just better. You're

00:05:41.769 --> 00:05:44.009
probably right. I'm going to go for Nakatani

00:05:44.009 --> 00:05:46.790
anyway, just because I've got to be a contrarian.

00:05:47.449 --> 00:05:50.850
Well, and he trains with Mexicans and stuff.

00:05:54.329 --> 00:05:57.769
Oh, so you didn't see this one. Crawford was

00:05:57.769 --> 00:06:01.550
pulled over. Do you know the story behind that?

00:06:02.110 --> 00:06:05.569
Not the whole story. I meant to go look it up

00:06:05.569 --> 00:06:08.389
and totally forgot to. I saw a little clip where

00:06:08.389 --> 00:06:10.629
the officer was telling him not to reach for

00:06:10.629 --> 00:06:16.389
a gun. That's all I saw. Did Crawford actually

00:06:16.389 --> 00:06:19.170
have guns in his vehicle? Because he likes guns.

00:06:19.329 --> 00:06:22.910
He owns lots of them. Yes, and he and all of

00:06:22.910 --> 00:06:27.490
his crew are licensed to carry. Yeah. I'm not

00:06:27.490 --> 00:06:30.110
saying it was illegal, but did he have guns in

00:06:30.110 --> 00:06:33.509
the car with him? Yeah, okay, okay. I meant to

00:06:33.509 --> 00:06:37.129
go look. Because if he's driving dangerously

00:06:37.129 --> 00:06:40.589
and has the back of the car filled with guns,

00:06:40.670 --> 00:06:45.449
I can see the cops being a little nervous. Yeah,

00:06:45.490 --> 00:06:48.370
that's pretty much what happened, was the cops

00:06:48.370 --> 00:06:50.610
were nervous, so they had to draw their weapons

00:06:50.610 --> 00:06:54.350
because they saw there was guns out in the open.

00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.259
like all right everybody slowly get out of the

00:06:57.259 --> 00:07:04.480
vehicle yeah i did see on like instagram and

00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:07.459
stuff people trying to make it a race thing i'm

00:07:07.459 --> 00:07:10.920
like dude even if you're white and driving dangerously

00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:15.120
and have guns like laying on the back seat the

00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:18.240
cops are gonna pull their weapons i've had american

00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:22.439
highway patrol pull their gun on me before like

00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:27.610
it's not a rare thing and I am the whitest of

00:07:27.610 --> 00:07:34.490
white ladies. Like... I've never had a cop pull

00:07:34.490 --> 00:07:38.089
their gun on me. Oh, fucking Border Patrol loves

00:07:38.089 --> 00:07:40.050
pulling their gun on people. Of course they do.

00:07:40.589 --> 00:07:46.290
Bunch of dicks. But no, I got... So when I first

00:07:46.290 --> 00:07:49.430
got my license, I'm aging myself terribly here.

00:07:49.529 --> 00:07:52.610
Montana didn't have speed limits yet. Montana

00:07:52.610 --> 00:07:54.949
was one of the last states to put in speed limits.

00:07:56.569 --> 00:07:59.529
So when I was 16, they didn't have a speed limit,

00:07:59.629 --> 00:08:03.290
and I came back to visit when I was, I think,

00:08:03.290 --> 00:08:06.189
19. I was at university, and they had put in

00:08:06.189 --> 00:08:09.949
speed limits, and I didn't realize, so I was

00:08:09.949 --> 00:08:12.370
driving too fast and got pulled over, which is

00:08:12.370 --> 00:08:17.069
fair. But the fucking cops there just pull their

00:08:17.069 --> 00:08:20.110
guns on everyone, I swear to God. They probably

00:08:20.110 --> 00:08:26.949
do. Anyways, I don't think the cop was particularly

00:08:26.949 --> 00:08:30.529
bad or hard on Crawford if he was driving the

00:08:30.529 --> 00:08:34.309
way it sounds like he was driving. Yeah, from

00:08:34.309 --> 00:08:41.129
what I gather as well, he was acting up. I kind

00:08:41.129 --> 00:08:43.509
of get it. He was just coming off of the big

00:08:43.509 --> 00:08:47.350
parade that they had. Totally in his honor. So,

00:08:47.350 --> 00:08:50.429
you know, you're riding on cloud nine. So you're

00:08:50.429 --> 00:08:53.850
acting up a little bit. I get it, but yeah. I

00:08:53.850 --> 00:08:57.690
get it, but getting pulled over is also not a

00:08:57.690 --> 00:09:01.090
surprise. Yeah, I get getting pulled over, too.

00:09:01.690 --> 00:09:04.529
At least he wasn't drinking and driving. Yeah,

00:09:04.549 --> 00:09:08.549
and everyone was licensed to carry firearms.

00:09:09.049 --> 00:09:12.169
Everyone had firearms on their person. Nobody

00:09:12.169 --> 00:09:16.490
made any fucking crazy moves. This thing got

00:09:16.490 --> 00:09:19.870
settled, and... I think the mayor of Omaha was

00:09:19.870 --> 00:09:23.649
like, oh, you know, just a routine situation.

00:09:25.230 --> 00:09:28.070
So. Yeah. Well, and I haven't seen Crawford overly

00:09:28.070 --> 00:09:31.690
complain about it. Yeah. Like I said, it was

00:09:31.690 --> 00:09:35.309
just like internet warriors. Like somebody. Something

00:09:35.309 --> 00:09:37.990
it's not. Yeah. Well, somebody was like, what

00:09:37.990 --> 00:09:40.269
do you get pulled over for? And there was like

00:09:40.269 --> 00:09:43.029
six comments of driving while black. And I'm

00:09:43.029 --> 00:09:44.889
like, I really don't think that's what it was,

00:09:44.909 --> 00:09:48.269
guys. But yeah, I get celebrating and driving

00:09:48.269 --> 00:09:50.750
like an asshole. I've done it before, too. But

00:09:50.750 --> 00:09:52.789
if you get pulled over, you get pulled over.

00:09:53.330 --> 00:09:56.570
And it's not surprising that the cops were nervous

00:09:56.570 --> 00:09:59.649
if everybody had guns. There was one out in the

00:09:59.649 --> 00:10:02.649
open. That was what started the whole nervousness

00:10:02.649 --> 00:10:07.970
to begin with. So, I don't know. I don't really

00:10:07.970 --> 00:10:12.830
see anything too wrong with it. On either side,

00:10:12.889 --> 00:10:16.710
really. Like, nobody got hurt. Yeah. It's fine.

00:10:17.070 --> 00:10:19.750
Crawford has the money to pay dangerous driving

00:10:19.750 --> 00:10:25.370
fines. Driving like an asshole fine? Yeah, well...

00:10:25.370 --> 00:10:29.590
I mean... If that's what you choose to do, you

00:10:29.590 --> 00:10:36.269
take the risk of having to pay for it. Mmm...

00:10:36.269 --> 00:10:44.509
Daigo Higa. Unsurprisingly, he unretired. Yeah.

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:48.860
I was surprised when he announced his retirement.

00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:53.100
I am not surprised by this. Yeah, I think he

00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:55.200
just retired because he was tired of getting

00:10:55.200 --> 00:11:01.299
draws. I need somebody to call in and tell me

00:11:01.299 --> 00:11:04.379
what the record is for consecutive draws. Because

00:11:04.379 --> 00:11:06.179
I'm sure there's been quite a few people who

00:11:06.179 --> 00:11:08.340
have gotten two in a row. But if he gets three

00:11:08.340 --> 00:11:14.700
in a row, that has to be rare. Yeah. I might

00:11:14.700 --> 00:11:17.299
have to look into this as well, just to see.

00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:21.740
I also didn't see who he's unretiring to fight,

00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.460
or if he has a fight lined up, or if he just

00:11:24.460 --> 00:11:27.279
announced his... I just thought it was announcing

00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:33.399
unretirement. Yeah, I just mean, like, I can't

00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:36.879
even speculate who his opponent will be next,

00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:40.759
I don't think. Like, there's lots of options,

00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:43.240
but... I don't know if he has one lined up or

00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:48.259
anything. Ooh, bet he fights for a title. I mean,

00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:52.539
if your last fight was a draw for a title, and

00:11:52.539 --> 00:11:57.519
then a draw for a title, and then, or... Two

00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:02.179
title draws? Yeah. Who is it in the Discord fucking

00:12:02.179 --> 00:12:05.580
hates he getting title shots? He complains every

00:12:05.580 --> 00:12:08.159
time. I can't remember. I don't know. Is it Deuce?

00:12:08.820 --> 00:12:11.720
Deuce hates it. Deuce is like, why the fuck does

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:16.580
this man keep getting shots? He's not that good.

00:12:16.779 --> 00:12:20.039
And I'm like... He's entertaining. He's always

00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:25.480
entertaining. And he's not that bad. No. Just

00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:31.379
unfortunately not having the best luck. Yeah.

00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:36.370
But I'm kind of happy. I'll watch Higa again.

00:12:36.470 --> 00:12:39.309
I like him. Yeah, I would gladly tune into his

00:12:39.309 --> 00:12:47.289
next fight. My fellow Urasoe Okinawa bro. And

00:12:47.289 --> 00:12:52.009
he hasn't looked bad yet. No, he hasn't. He does

00:12:52.009 --> 00:12:55.110
look like he's past his peak, but he's definitely

00:12:55.110 --> 00:13:00.009
not washed. Oh, it's not on the outline, but

00:13:00.009 --> 00:13:03.590
Ioka broke the top 10 in the rankings again,

00:13:03.669 --> 00:13:06.909
too. So I'm wondering who they're lining him

00:13:06.909 --> 00:13:11.289
up for. What? Speaking of older Japanese guys

00:13:11.289 --> 00:13:17.230
that are probably a little past it. Wait, who?

00:13:18.309 --> 00:13:23.429
Full name? Kasuto Ioka. Oh, I just completely

00:13:23.429 --> 00:13:25.509
misheard you. And I thought you meant like Tony

00:13:25.509 --> 00:13:28.669
Ioka, the French heavyweight. I was like, why

00:13:28.669 --> 00:13:32.129
would you know that? No, no, no. No, Ioka. Ioka,

00:13:32.250 --> 00:13:40.509
yeah. I can't remember which... It doesn't really

00:13:40.509 --> 00:13:43.409
matter. I can't remember which sanctioning body

00:13:43.409 --> 00:13:49.789
it was. He was number 9 again. Probably WBA then.

00:13:50.330 --> 00:13:58.529
He's number 9 again. Maybe I can go to a Higa

00:13:58.529 --> 00:14:02.470
Ioka card before I leave again. Out in Ota City.

00:14:04.649 --> 00:14:06.450
Oh, because, yeah, that's where they put their

00:14:06.450 --> 00:14:16.909
undesirables. Yeah. Oh, speaking of undesirable,

00:14:17.289 --> 00:14:23.330
Moses Itauma rejects an IBF eliminator. He rejected

00:14:23.330 --> 00:14:27.710
it. He rejected a final eliminator. He was going

00:14:27.710 --> 00:14:30.429
to fight Frank Sanchez, and if he won, he gets

00:14:30.429 --> 00:14:35.409
a shot at Usyk. And he turned it down. Frank

00:14:35.409 --> 00:14:40.450
Sanchez is a step up, but... Winnable, I think.

00:14:42.250 --> 00:14:46.210
Yeah, I don't follow the heavies like most people

00:14:46.210 --> 00:14:51.429
do, but I guess Itauma's maybe not as confident

00:14:51.429 --> 00:14:57.389
as everyone else is about Itauma. In his last

00:14:57.389 --> 00:15:00.330
fight, he said, when he sparked Dillian White,

00:15:00.509 --> 00:15:03.600
he had said, Everyone in the crowd was shouting,

00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:05.399
like, who do you want to fight next? And then

00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:07.799
the crowd was all shouting, Usyk, Usyk, Usyk.

00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:10.240
And he's like, yeah, everyone's saying that,

00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:13.120
but there's other guys who have earned that shot,

00:15:13.259 --> 00:15:16.919
and I kind of haven't. Yeah. He kind of did a

00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:21.419
little shrug. Like, I would if I had the chance,

00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:25.340
sure. But obviously he won't. Yeah. Because he

00:15:25.340 --> 00:15:29.120
turned down the eliminator. I didn't mind that

00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:34.029
speech, but, like... Maybe he's not very confident.

00:15:34.110 --> 00:15:37.769
Maybe this is going to be his downside. Like,

00:15:37.769 --> 00:15:42.389
he's got the skills, but no balls to take on

00:15:42.389 --> 00:15:47.389
the really tough challenges. Oh, I forgot to

00:15:47.389 --> 00:15:52.830
do this. Oh yeah, you gotta turn on your on -air

00:15:52.830 --> 00:15:57.730
sign so nobody interrupts. Yeah, well, Dogbert's

00:15:57.730 --> 00:16:02.990
the only one that'll do that. I think it's okay

00:16:02.990 --> 00:16:07.970
for him to reject it. The fight with Frank Sanchez,

00:16:08.149 --> 00:16:13.009
it's not a bad one. Is he at that level? Maybe

00:16:13.009 --> 00:16:17.169
not. But that's, I think, but also maybe. So

00:16:17.169 --> 00:16:22.409
it would have been a decent fight, but. Yeah,

00:16:22.529 --> 00:16:28.009
I'm just talking shit, I guess. But I like to

00:16:28.009 --> 00:16:31.710
see people challenge themselves. Like, Itauma

00:16:31.710 --> 00:16:37.629
hasn't had a hard fight yet. No, he hasn't. It's

00:16:37.629 --> 00:16:41.950
still... I think people are still protecting

00:16:41.950 --> 00:16:45.309
their O's a little too much. Less. Like, that

00:16:45.309 --> 00:16:49.889
whole thing's going away a bit. But you don't

00:16:49.889 --> 00:16:52.470
want to push people too fast either. I don't

00:16:52.470 --> 00:16:58.269
know. I don't know heavyweight stuff. I think

00:16:58.269 --> 00:17:01.700
it's alright. I also didn't know that Atom was

00:17:01.700 --> 00:17:06.440
born in Slovakia. Yeah. Him and his brother.

00:17:08.779 --> 00:17:16.660
Interesting. Alright. So who do you think he's

00:17:16.660 --> 00:17:19.559
gonna fight instead, then? Fuck, that's a good

00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:25.970
question. Let's have... Like, if he doesn't want

00:17:25.970 --> 00:17:29.309
to fight Sanchez, who's one step below that?

00:17:32.109 --> 00:17:38.549
Jared Anderson? Is Anderson still a name? I feel

00:17:38.549 --> 00:17:41.289
like he got found out really bad. He did. I don't

00:17:41.289 --> 00:17:44.930
think Jared Anderson will take that fight, to

00:17:44.930 --> 00:17:52.509
be honest. Justice Hooney. Maybe. He was soundly

00:17:52.509 --> 00:17:55.730
outboxing Fabio Wardley. Until he got absolutely

00:17:55.730 --> 00:18:01.029
fucking wrecked. I enjoyed that, actually. I

00:18:01.029 --> 00:18:06.150
didn't. I was on Team Hoonie. Anything to upset

00:18:06.150 --> 00:18:15.710
Lin? Yeah, fair. Yeah, I guess. I feel like Hoonie's

00:18:15.710 --> 00:18:21.130
a harder test than Sanchez, though. And there's

00:18:21.130 --> 00:18:28.109
no... belt -stangling in front of you. Kevin

00:18:28.109 --> 00:18:38.569
Lorena? Who had a buzzed hoonie as well. I don't

00:18:38.569 --> 00:18:40.569
know. I just feel like Frank Sanchez isn't that

00:18:40.569 --> 00:18:43.269
hard of a pest. Yeah, I don't think he is either.

00:18:43.509 --> 00:18:46.349
I feel like that was a really reasonable one

00:18:46.349 --> 00:18:55.400
that Atalma should have taken. Maybe I'm underestimating

00:18:55.400 --> 00:19:03.140
Frank Sanchez. Perhaps. He's a Cuban 33, so,

00:19:03.299 --> 00:19:07.960
you know. So 50. Yeah, he's considerably older.

00:19:08.099 --> 00:19:11.720
When he fought Aguit Caballel, he definitely

00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:17.390
did look the worst for wear. Yeah. Wait, I'm

00:19:17.390 --> 00:19:20.049
not saying Frank Sanchez is bad. I just mean,

00:19:20.109 --> 00:19:22.710
like, I think that's a reasonable fight for Atalma

00:19:22.710 --> 00:19:25.569
at this point. That's why I'm kind of surprised

00:19:25.569 --> 00:19:30.809
he rejected it. Hmm. What did the guys on B -side

00:19:30.809 --> 00:19:36.170
think about that? Yeah, it was like the no -needs

00:19:36.170 --> 00:19:39.930
-to -rush kind of thing. Atalma's still the second

00:19:39.930 --> 00:19:45.900
coming. But Josh wrote a piece on it. It's on

00:19:45.900 --> 00:19:52.420
the fucking Wayside Sports Review. That's up

00:19:52.420 --> 00:20:00.000
on LVXmedia .net. Check it out. I want to skip

00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.079
ahead really quick. So if Etaba is not going

00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:06.839
to take the Usyk Eliminator, who's next for Usyk?

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:10.359
Now, I found this on social media, so it had

00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:13.539
some options already presented. Joseph Parker.

00:20:14.299 --> 00:20:18.619
Fabio Wardley, Tyson Fury, Jake Paul, other.

00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:23.660
Jake Paul's such a stupid fucking answer. I don't

00:20:23.660 --> 00:20:26.660
think Usyk's fighting Jake Paul. I would like

00:20:26.660 --> 00:20:30.900
for him to get paid. Yeah, I don't think Usyk

00:20:30.900 --> 00:20:34.500
cares that much about having more money. He wouldn't

00:20:34.500 --> 00:20:38.380
dishonor himself? I don't think so. Maybe I'm

00:20:38.380 --> 00:20:41.279
wrong. And it's a lot of money. And I... Can't

00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:43.880
overly judge people for taking a lot of money,

00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:48.900
but... Yeah. I mean, the only real good answer

00:20:48.900 --> 00:20:52.740
is Parker, right? Yeah, that's what Saul and

00:20:52.740 --> 00:20:58.220
I thought was Joseph Parker. Like... He's earned

00:20:58.220 --> 00:21:03.079
a shot. And he's been waiting. And Parker's been

00:21:03.079 --> 00:21:06.079
looking good. He deserves the shot. And I think

00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:09.559
Usyk beats him anyways, but... I mean... I think

00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:12.539
Joseph Parker should get his shot. It's a new

00:21:12.539 --> 00:21:16.700
wrinkle, right? It's a new type of, a new style

00:21:16.700 --> 00:21:21.259
of fight. Because Fabio Wardley, I would liken

00:21:21.259 --> 00:21:26.440
it to Dubois. I don't think Wardley has the skills

00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:33.359
to do anything. To hang? Yeah. And he's beat

00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:36.599
Fury twice. Fury does not deserve another shot.

00:21:37.259 --> 00:21:42.720
Yeah, seriously. Speaking of Usyk, has there

00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:48.259
been any news about the lawsuit? He's been getting...

00:21:48.259 --> 00:21:52.160
I don't know if he is sued, but somebody was

00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:56.359
investigating him because he asked for time before

00:21:56.359 --> 00:21:58.759
a defense because of a back injury, and then

00:21:58.759 --> 00:22:01.720
he had those videos of him dancing. Like, your

00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:06.059
back doesn't look very injured, man. Well, yes.

00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:13.200
to be dancing around in Ukrainian pop star videos,

00:22:13.619 --> 00:22:18.039
music videos, yeah, it's a little silly, but

00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:23.480
it's also not as physically taxing as professional

00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:27.619
training. It was the WBO that was wanting to

00:22:27.619 --> 00:22:31.250
investigate him. I'm not generally knocking him

00:22:31.250 --> 00:22:33.529
for it or anything. I just meant, like, I hadn't

00:22:33.529 --> 00:22:36.210
heard anything about the investigation. I haven't

00:22:36.210 --> 00:22:40.890
either. Usyk's also in a movie that's coming

00:22:40.890 --> 00:22:44.690
out soon. I've been seeing some actors talking

00:22:44.690 --> 00:22:46.990
about filming with him, and it sounds hilarious,

00:22:47.349 --> 00:22:51.630
as expected. The one that I saw was that he needs

00:22:51.630 --> 00:22:56.690
to be paid in cake to do anything. He didn't

00:22:56.690 --> 00:22:59.569
like having to be sprayed down with fake sweat

00:22:59.569 --> 00:23:01.869
and stuff, and they had to bribe him with cake.

00:23:08.509 --> 00:23:12.750
So, Usyk is becoming a real heavyweight, apparently,

00:23:12.950 --> 00:23:17.289
during his time off. Honestly, I said it before,

00:23:17.430 --> 00:23:20.829
I think he could retire now and still be the

00:23:20.829 --> 00:23:24.809
fucking, like, greatest of this generation, for

00:23:24.809 --> 00:23:27.309
sure. He already is the greatest of this generation.

00:23:27.730 --> 00:23:30.809
That's what I mean. Like if he retires now, there's

00:23:30.809 --> 00:23:33.549
no, there's take anything away from them. Yeah.

00:23:33.690 --> 00:23:36.910
If he wants to go film Hollywood movies and eat

00:23:36.910 --> 00:23:41.269
cake, I think he's earned it. One of the others

00:23:41.269 --> 00:23:45.349
that was in the Usyk who's next for Usyk post

00:23:45.349 --> 00:23:49.470
that I didn't include here on the list, but was

00:23:49.470 --> 00:23:53.819
included was Anthony Joshua. And I put that in

00:23:53.819 --> 00:23:55.519
the same category as Tyson Fury. He's also beat

00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:59.200
him twice. Exactly. There's nothing more to see

00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:05.640
here. Yeah. But I mentioned Anthony Joshua because

00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:09.220
who might be next for Anthony Joshua? He's got

00:24:09.220 --> 00:24:13.339
his comeback scheduled. And the options on the

00:24:13.339 --> 00:24:18.619
post I found this on, Jake Paul, Tony Yoka, Martin

00:24:18.619 --> 00:24:22.190
Bacoli, and I added... rematching Daniel Dubois.

00:24:23.049 --> 00:24:28.950
I don't think he should rematch Dubois. But...

00:24:28.950 --> 00:24:31.509
I'd like for him to fight Tony Yoka. That's what

00:24:31.509 --> 00:24:34.869
I came down with. I've heard some very convincing

00:24:34.869 --> 00:24:38.789
arguments for Tony Yoka. Yoka's also a little

00:24:38.789 --> 00:24:42.210
past it. It's a Britain versus France thing.

00:24:43.410 --> 00:24:46.690
They... Were they at the same Olympics? Or they

00:24:46.690 --> 00:24:48.730
won gold medals back -to -back or something?

00:24:49.450 --> 00:24:54.160
Yeah. like i i don't even know who tony yoka

00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:57.019
fucking is i honestly heavyweights are not my

00:24:57.019 --> 00:25:00.240
jam but i heard some convincing arguments that

00:25:00.240 --> 00:25:02.440
i'm like yeah i could see why people would want

00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:05.740
to see that fight and it might be fun if they're

00:25:05.740 --> 00:25:11.680
both a bit past it like for tony yoka to be past

00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:15.460
it though he has to have been been it yeah he

00:25:15.460 --> 00:25:18.299
has to have been it to begin with and he never

00:25:18.299 --> 00:25:25.960
was Fair enough. But still, all of the miscellaneous

00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:30.339
reasons do make it a compelling fight. I want

00:25:30.339 --> 00:25:34.059
to see it. Well, and I think AJ does need a bit

00:25:34.059 --> 00:25:39.059
of a confidence booster. Yep. So if he can get

00:25:39.059 --> 00:25:43.000
some money fighting Yoka, who's a bit of a name.

00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:47.730
Like, I have heard his name before. If Yoka's

00:25:47.730 --> 00:25:52.089
not much of a threat. Like, I think even Bacoli...

00:25:52.089 --> 00:25:56.609
Probably beats his ass. Well, not beats his ass,

00:25:56.769 --> 00:25:59.869
but has the chance of sparking him. AJ seems

00:25:59.869 --> 00:26:08.089
very sparkable now. Like... I don't know. Jake

00:26:08.089 --> 00:26:12.650
Paul would be a fucking joke. I think he beats

00:26:12.650 --> 00:26:16.519
Jake Paul like he did, uh... Francis Ngannou.

00:26:16.619 --> 00:26:21.359
I wouldn't mind seeing that, but I don't know.

00:26:21.799 --> 00:26:24.819
We've talked about Jake Paul a bunch. I don't

00:26:24.819 --> 00:26:28.220
like Jake Paul as a boxer. I don't like him getting

00:26:28.220 --> 00:26:32.940
to fight big names. I understand why it happens

00:26:32.940 --> 00:26:38.279
and stuff, but he doesn't deserve it. In my opinion.

00:26:38.559 --> 00:26:43.490
But Jake Paul's... choney is a really good promoter

00:26:43.490 --> 00:26:47.549
i don't dislike him in boxing anymore but i don't

00:26:47.549 --> 00:26:50.630
like him being in the ring i want him to just

00:26:50.630 --> 00:26:54.289
promote what's his promotion called most valuable

00:26:54.289 --> 00:27:00.809
yeah mvp sorry i got the hiccups i i want him

00:27:00.809 --> 00:27:04.589
to go promote fighters he seems good at it he

00:27:04.589 --> 00:27:08.180
seems to actually give a shit about the fighters.

00:27:08.339 --> 00:27:10.859
He's making his money in other places. He doesn't

00:27:10.859 --> 00:27:15.160
need to make it ripping them off. I mean, he

00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:18.140
basically runs women's boxing now. At this point,

00:27:18.299 --> 00:27:22.819
he's signed anyone who matters. Pretty much,

00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:32.559
yeah. Oh, that's a good segue. They announced

00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:37.220
Who gets into the Hall of Fame of boxing last

00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:43.700
week, I think. Yeah. And they had three women.

00:27:44.099 --> 00:27:49.599
I got to look up the other two. But the German

00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:54.099
lady, Christina Hammer, was on the list. I was

00:27:54.099 --> 00:27:57.140
happy she made the Hall of Fame. Is she on the

00:27:57.140 --> 00:28:03.059
ballot or is she in? I might have misunderstood.

00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:06.480
I think the ballots are out. Okay, I thought

00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:08.720
they were in. I thought they announced who was

00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:13.259
in. The ballots are out now and voting is through

00:28:13.259 --> 00:28:18.240
December. Okay, okay. I misunderstood the thing

00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:20.460
I listened to. I was listening to podcasts at

00:28:20.460 --> 00:28:24.200
work and just not paying that much attention,

00:28:24.359 --> 00:28:27.420
I guess. But Christina Hammer being on there,

00:28:27.559 --> 00:28:31.230
it's a good shout. I think Triple G made this

00:28:31.230 --> 00:28:39.150
one. Yeah. I obviously recognized everyone's

00:28:39.150 --> 00:28:45.509
name, but I just have such a shit memory. Sean

00:28:45.509 --> 00:28:52.970
Porter was on the list, I think. Okay. I could

00:28:52.970 --> 00:28:55.829
see him... I could see the argument for him making

00:28:55.829 --> 00:28:59.690
it. I don't know if I would. Vote him first ballot,

00:28:59.769 --> 00:29:06.829
but I need to see who else is on it. Yeah, I

00:29:06.829 --> 00:29:10.170
mentioned this and then have completely dropped

00:29:10.170 --> 00:29:15.609
the fucking ball on it. This annoys me. I'm not

00:29:15.609 --> 00:29:18.930
a huge feminist or anything, but it's super fucking

00:29:18.930 --> 00:29:22.809
hard to find the women in these articles. And

00:29:22.809 --> 00:29:25.430
I have to say, I really like Boxing Scene Today,

00:29:25.569 --> 00:29:29.740
the pro -box one. And they had a whole show,

00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:33.299
and this pissed me off. I would have rather they

00:29:33.299 --> 00:29:35.319
just didn't mention it at all. They talked for,

00:29:35.420 --> 00:29:37.619
like, 20 minutes about the men that were nominated,

00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:41.420
and literally their outro was saying the three

00:29:41.420 --> 00:29:45.440
women's names. Oh. I was like, oh, yeah, and

00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:48.599
these three women were also nominated. And I'm

00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:52.619
like, goddamn, guys. Like, it would have been

00:29:52.619 --> 00:29:55.960
less dismissive to just not bring them up. Yeah.

00:29:56.349 --> 00:29:59.150
Then to mention them as an afterthought. Yeah,

00:29:59.230 --> 00:30:04.930
that annoyed me. It annoyed me enough I left

00:30:04.930 --> 00:30:06.829
a comment that nobody's ever going to see on

00:30:06.829 --> 00:30:11.049
their YouTube. Okay, so here's the 2026 ones.

00:30:12.029 --> 00:30:19.589
Triple G. Vernon Forrest. Steve Collins. The

00:30:19.589 --> 00:30:25.599
Celtic Warrior. I recognize the name, but I don't

00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:31.359
remember why he's a name. Christina Hammer, Jackie

00:30:31.359 --> 00:30:35.319
Nava. Is Vernon Forrest the one that got shot?

00:30:36.079 --> 00:30:39.019
Like, he died fairly young. He got shot in a

00:30:39.019 --> 00:30:47.279
carjacking or something? I don't know. I might

00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:53.680
have the wrong guy. Not a carjacking, but a robbery.

00:30:54.059 --> 00:30:59.559
Someone robbed him in Atlanta and he fought back.

00:31:08.819 --> 00:31:15.640
Steve Bunce is in the broadcaster slot. I don't

00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:18.880
know who that is. He's the British dude. He does

00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:24.529
Box Nation. Oh, I do recognize that. Yeah, okay.

00:31:25.309 --> 00:31:30.130
He's a bald, older guy. I don't care for Steve

00:31:30.130 --> 00:31:36.089
Bunce. Anyway. Yeah, speaking of Hall of Fame,

00:31:36.190 --> 00:31:39.849
do you think AJ has the credentials to make the

00:31:39.849 --> 00:31:46.650
Hall of Fame? Because I don't. I think AJ will

00:31:46.650 --> 00:31:48.349
be in the Hall of Fame. He will make it, yes,

00:31:48.470 --> 00:31:50.640
but I don't think he should. I don't think he's

00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:58.740
as deserving as others. I think AJ is famous

00:31:58.740 --> 00:32:04.220
enough that his resume probably doesn't matter.

00:32:08.019 --> 00:32:12.160
Like, there's a lot of people in the Hall of

00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:15.160
Fame that are not the best boxers. True. That

00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:18.509
is very true. And this is true for any Hall of

00:32:18.509 --> 00:32:22.450
Fame. It's not just boxing. Like, if you are

00:32:22.450 --> 00:32:26.690
famous enough and personable enough or hated

00:32:26.690 --> 00:32:30.970
enough, you get in the Hall of Fame. It's not

00:32:30.970 --> 00:32:34.210
skill -based. It's... Yeah, it's not entirely

00:32:34.210 --> 00:32:40.250
in the ring. It's just... Yeah. That is the exact

00:32:40.250 --> 00:32:42.650
same argument I made last time when we were talking

00:32:42.650 --> 00:32:47.470
about Ricky Hatton. Right, and I think Ricky

00:32:47.470 --> 00:32:51.650
Hatton should be in the Hall of Fame, but I don't

00:32:51.650 --> 00:32:54.869
think he's the best British boxer. No, yeah.

00:32:55.230 --> 00:32:57.569
Like, those are two different arguments, Leo.

00:32:57.769 --> 00:33:02.269
Yes, I know. The Hall of Fame is not necessarily

00:33:02.269 --> 00:33:07.349
100 % merit -based, and I'm okay with that. I

00:33:07.349 --> 00:33:10.309
think that people with a big fan base should

00:33:10.309 --> 00:33:13.890
be in the Hall of Fame, and you can go see...

00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:20.240
their whatever their stuff uh years from now

00:33:20.240 --> 00:33:25.500
like I went to the hockey hall of fame and there's

00:33:25.500 --> 00:33:27.660
there's a lot of guys I wish were in there that

00:33:27.660 --> 00:33:30.240
will never be in there because I like the goons

00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:36.940
like so Donald Brashear is not gonna make the

00:33:36.940 --> 00:33:40.579
hockey hall of fame like he was famous for fighting

00:33:41.420 --> 00:33:43.839
That was his thing. That doesn't get you in the

00:33:43.839 --> 00:33:48.000
Hall of Fame. No, probably not. But there's me

00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:50.319
and a bunch of other people that would be excited

00:33:50.319 --> 00:33:55.039
to see his jersey hanging in there anyways. You

00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:57.319
know? And I think there's some boxers like that,

00:33:57.380 --> 00:34:02.720
too. Ricky Hatton has the resume. Maybe he lost

00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:08.320
every big fight, but he fought people. But I

00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:12.280
just... AJ's so famous. I think he deserves to

00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:14.940
be there anyways. He's done a lot for boxing

00:34:14.940 --> 00:34:19.340
outside of the ring. Oh, look at you making a

00:34:19.340 --> 00:34:24.260
case for him. And it's a good one. I was just

00:34:24.260 --> 00:34:26.559
thinking purely on his resume. Like Saul and

00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:28.400
I were talking, when we were talking about it,

00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:31.460
we were speaking purely on his resume. Like who's

00:34:31.460 --> 00:34:36.280
his best win, Vladimir Klitschko? And take away

00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:40.909
Klitschko, what else has he accomplished? I mean,

00:34:40.909 --> 00:34:44.650
he was a champion for a long period of time.

00:34:44.909 --> 00:34:49.329
Like, he held belts. Yeah. Heavyweight's not

00:34:49.329 --> 00:34:53.949
my forte. But I just think that AJ is famous

00:34:53.949 --> 00:34:57.750
enough and has enough fans, and he has been a

00:34:57.750 --> 00:35:02.889
good ambassador of the sport. And, like I said,

00:35:02.929 --> 00:35:05.210
the Hall of Fame, I don't think, is or should

00:35:05.210 --> 00:35:10.210
be purely merit -based. If you're... likable

00:35:10.210 --> 00:35:13.469
enough, you can get in the Hall of Fame. If it's

00:35:13.469 --> 00:35:16.389
purely merit -based, then what would... How many

00:35:16.389 --> 00:35:20.670
ballots would it take for Roberto Duran to have

00:35:20.670 --> 00:35:23.690
gotten in? Because he got his ass kicked by Ray

00:35:23.690 --> 00:35:30.550
Leonard, Tommy Hearns, Marvin Hagler. Yeah, like...

00:35:30.550 --> 00:35:34.210
But Duran obviously deserves to be in the Hall

00:35:34.210 --> 00:35:36.670
of Fame. Of course he does. Like, that's not

00:35:36.670 --> 00:35:42.699
a debate. But you're right. His resume, he's

00:35:42.699 --> 00:35:45.019
got a lot of losses. But again, I don't think

00:35:45.019 --> 00:35:50.940
that should matter. AJ has done enough for the

00:35:50.940 --> 00:35:59.820
sport at large that his thinner resume shouldn't

00:35:59.820 --> 00:36:04.699
hold him back too much. And how do I put this

00:36:04.699 --> 00:36:07.260
without sounding like an asshole? Getting in

00:36:07.260 --> 00:36:12.260
the Hall of Fame is great, but I mean, that also

00:36:12.260 --> 00:36:15.800
doesn't mean a whole bunch. It just means you've

00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:19.400
been recognized. But, like, there's some people

00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:21.219
in the Hall of Fame that I don't know who the

00:36:21.219 --> 00:36:26.340
fuck they are. True. And not just, like, because

00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:29.239
they're so old. Like, there's people the right

00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:32.659
generation that I should know who they are that

00:36:32.659 --> 00:36:35.670
I just don't. And there's some people that I

00:36:35.670 --> 00:36:38.769
wish were in there that aren't. Like, I think

00:36:38.769 --> 00:36:41.030
Mickey Ward deserves to be in the Hall of Fame,

00:36:41.070 --> 00:36:44.070
and I don't think he was ever voted in. I'm sure

00:36:44.070 --> 00:36:48.750
he has been at this point. I don't know. I know

00:36:48.750 --> 00:36:55.090
he went when Arturo Gatti was inducted. He went

00:36:55.090 --> 00:36:58.010
to the induction ceremony because Gatti was dead.

00:36:59.050 --> 00:37:07.400
Oh, he was inducted. In 2019. So my example is...

00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:12.539
But okay. It took to 2019. Yeah, but still using

00:37:12.539 --> 00:37:15.039
this example, like, Mickey Ward's resume is kind

00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:19.519
of shit. But nobody's mad he's in the Hall of

00:37:19.519 --> 00:37:22.840
Fame. Yeah. Or if they are, they can come fight

00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:27.280
me. Or you could call in and say, why is she

00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:34.969
wrong? 833 -589 -7637. I will meet you in a field

00:37:34.969 --> 00:37:38.429
and fight you if you tell me Mickey Ward doesn't

00:37:38.429 --> 00:37:43.050
deserve to be there. Because he does. But if

00:37:43.050 --> 00:37:45.869
Mickey Ward's in the Hall of Fame, AJ's resume's

00:37:45.869 --> 00:37:54.429
better. Yeah. Speaking of good resumes, the Thrilla

00:37:54.429 --> 00:38:00.730
in Manila. 50 years. I rewatched it. I rewatched

00:38:00.730 --> 00:38:07.460
it to celebrate. And, yeah. Still great? Quite

00:38:07.460 --> 00:38:14.159
thrilling. Very Manila -ing. Not a whole lot

00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:16.320
to say beyond that. It was fucking fantastic.

00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:21.900
I do know that the climate of Manila gets a lot

00:38:21.900 --> 00:38:26.940
of credit for Ali's win in that one. The heat

00:38:26.940 --> 00:38:32.320
and the humidity and the... Yeah. I don't think

00:38:32.320 --> 00:38:35.960
that's fair, but it gets brought up a lot. He

00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:40.679
was definitely in the fight, and he won a good

00:38:40.679 --> 00:38:45.679
number of rounds. I do think that was one of

00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:50.840
Ali's really maxed out stats, was being able

00:38:50.840 --> 00:38:59.260
to endure everything. Like, his ability to take

00:38:59.260 --> 00:39:07.639
punishment. And not just punches punishment,

00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:15.940
but endure the heat and the exhaustion. I do

00:39:15.940 --> 00:39:18.539
think that was one of Ali's greatest strengths.

00:39:19.619 --> 00:39:25.679
Do you think, if we look back, was Ali, or even

00:39:25.679 --> 00:39:29.550
Frasier for that matter, were they in... Like

00:39:29.550 --> 00:39:34.590
a men's fashion magazine? Like GQ? Ali was in

00:39:34.590 --> 00:39:43.409
many magazines. That's a good segue. Tsutsumi's

00:39:43.409 --> 00:39:48.630
fashion magazine articles and photoshoots are

00:39:48.630 --> 00:39:54.880
fucking great. I have built up a... persona for

00:39:54.880 --> 00:39:58.079
him that is probably so far off it's ridiculous

00:39:58.079 --> 00:40:02.559
but I just picture like high school Sutsumi looking

00:40:02.559 --> 00:40:06.239
at fashion magazines being like I want to do

00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:09.139
this and not being pretty enough to be a model

00:40:09.139 --> 00:40:13.480
because Asian men's models are pretty then I

00:40:13.480 --> 00:40:15.079
don't even think they're handsome they're just

00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:20.019
pretty men and uh Sutsumi definitely would have

00:40:20.019 --> 00:40:23.510
rather been a model than a boxer I think In my

00:40:23.510 --> 00:40:27.090
head, he joined boxing so he could be in a fashion

00:40:27.090 --> 00:40:31.570
magazine, which has happened. His dream has finally,

00:40:31.710 --> 00:40:35.389
like, fuck the titles, fuck the winning record,

00:40:35.550 --> 00:40:39.389
all of that. I've made it into a fashion magazine.

00:40:39.889 --> 00:40:43.389
My fan fiction is definitely this is his dream

00:40:43.389 --> 00:40:48.690
coming true. He talks about working in a secondhand

00:40:48.690 --> 00:40:52.130
store. uh in the article and how that really

00:40:52.130 --> 00:40:55.670
helped him improve his fashion his fashion is

00:40:55.670 --> 00:40:58.949
Canadian tuxedos half the time and somehow they

00:40:58.949 --> 00:41:01.989
work like he does look fashionable but it's a

00:41:01.989 --> 00:41:08.920
lot of denim on denim Anyways, it made me really

00:41:08.920 --> 00:41:11.239
happy. I was really happy for him that he got

00:41:11.239 --> 00:41:14.599
to be in this magazine. And he's had a couple

00:41:14.599 --> 00:41:18.000
professional photo shoots. And he keeps leaking

00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:21.199
the pictures. Not leaking, but sharing the pictures

00:41:21.199 --> 00:41:23.800
on Instagram. Are you going to get a copy of

00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:29.059
it? I have absolutely no idea how to do that.

00:41:29.559 --> 00:41:33.219
But maybe. If I see it in a store, I will definitely

00:41:33.219 --> 00:41:37.440
buy it. I've bought a couple magazines that had

00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:42.780
Inoue on the cover and stuff. If I see Tsutsumi

00:41:42.780 --> 00:41:46.400
in a magazine, I am definitely buying it. Well,

00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:55.679
anything more for Tsutsumi fangirling, thrill

00:41:55.679 --> 00:42:01.639
in Manila, Hall of Fame talk? No, I did change

00:42:01.639 --> 00:42:06.039
my Discord profile picture to my favorite Tsutsumi

00:42:06.039 --> 00:42:09.039
fashion mag picture. I don't know if you've seen

00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:14.099
it yet, Leo. It's only in SP. I do the server

00:42:14.099 --> 00:42:17.039
-specific ones, but you should go check it out.

00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:20.960
He's doing the blue steel with his hand on his

00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:25.780
face. Fucking great. Whatever makes him happy.

00:42:27.019 --> 00:42:33.750
I love it. I love it so much. All right. Let

00:42:33.750 --> 00:42:38.289
me put some notes in here. LVX Media Net. All

00:42:43.510 --> 00:42:49.789
on it. Wherever you're listening, if you could

00:42:49.789 --> 00:42:51.869
hit us with a rating, it would be really helpful.

00:42:52.329 --> 00:42:55.610
And if you're feeling extra, why not leave us

00:42:55.610 --> 00:42:59.710
a review? Give me your opinion. And hey, if your

00:42:59.710 --> 00:43:01.769
opinion isn't very great and you're not feeling

00:43:01.769 --> 00:43:04.110
five stars, why don't you hit me up? Five, eight,

00:43:04.110 --> 00:43:05.750
nine, seven, six, eight, three, three, five,

00:43:05.869 --> 00:43:07.969
eight, nine, seven, six, three, seven. And tell

00:43:07.969 --> 00:43:11.030
me why you don't like why, why you're unhappy.

00:43:11.809 --> 00:43:15.309
And how can I make you happy? I'll do anything

00:43:15.309 --> 00:43:24.250
for an a professor. Yeah, very gross. If you

00:43:24.250 --> 00:43:27.110
want to get told when the new episodes come out.

00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:31.440
Follow on Instagram. Leo puts up a little thingy,

00:43:31.440 --> 00:43:33.400
and then I go to YouTube and listen to them.

00:43:33.579 --> 00:43:36.119
I'm probably one of, like, five people who listen

00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:40.340
on YouTube. If you want to check out the written

00:43:40.340 --> 00:43:43.219
content, right now it's only Josh that's writing,

00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:46.300
but we do have some other people waiting in the

00:43:46.300 --> 00:43:51.960
wings. LVXmedia .net. Scroll down a little bit,

00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:56.039
and it'll be the Wayside Sports Review. And there

00:43:56.039 --> 00:43:58.570
you go. That's where you can check out the written

00:43:58.570 --> 00:44:04.309
stuff. I do like Joss's takes. Yeah, he's good.

00:44:04.309 --> 00:44:11.550
To be honest. All right, let me do this. What

00:44:11.550 --> 00:44:14.130
if a small natural step could make a profound

00:44:14.130 --> 00:44:16.929
difference in your daily well -being? Many of

00:44:16.929 --> 00:44:19.329
us grapple with everyday stress, looking for

00:44:19.329 --> 00:44:21.829
natural ways to support our mood, our mental

00:44:21.829 --> 00:44:25.800
resilience, and our overall vitality. The answer

00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:29.019
might lie in nature's wisdom. Support for this

00:44:29.019 --> 00:44:32.480
episode is from psilocybin, a powerful psilocybin

00:44:32.480 --> 00:44:34.599
mushroom in a convenient microdosing capsule.

00:44:35.420 --> 00:44:38.340
Revered in traditional practices, psilocybin

00:44:38.340 --> 00:44:41.199
is gaining recognition for its remarkable benefits

00:44:41.199 --> 00:44:44.880
in mental health. With psilocybin, you're choosing

00:44:44.880 --> 00:44:48.219
a natural path to holistic wellness. I feel it's

00:44:48.219 --> 00:44:50.179
incredibly important to say that this isn't a

00:44:50.179 --> 00:44:52.780
substitute for professional medical advice. It's

00:44:52.780 --> 00:44:55.920
just a really good supplement. Of the three blends,

00:44:56.179 --> 00:44:58.780
I've tried the Inner Peace blend, and I can tell

00:44:58.780 --> 00:45:00.659
you from the beginning I felt a greater sense

00:45:00.659 --> 00:45:04.179
of calm and mental clarity. I've been juggling

00:45:04.179 --> 00:45:07.079
with some unfortunate stressors, and I've been

00:45:07.079 --> 00:45:10.139
doing it with a lot more resilience. But Soulcybin

00:45:10.139 --> 00:45:12.480

00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:15.420

00:47:00.300 --> 00:47:03.659
but we do have some stuff coming up. October

00:47:03.659 --> 00:47:09.599
11th is going to be a busy day. Nice. Two cards.

00:47:09.800 --> 00:47:13.719
The first one, Matchroom on DAZN. This one's

00:47:13.719 --> 00:47:19.480
in Sheffield in the UK. Oh, David Allen is the

00:47:19.480 --> 00:47:24.719
headliner fighting Arslan Beck Makhmudov. The

00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:30.239
heavyweight's your favorite. Yeah, yeah. I don't

00:47:30.239 --> 00:47:33.139
know. I don't know how to feel about Dave Allen,

00:47:33.380 --> 00:47:37.880
to be honest. He's coming off some dynamite wins.

00:47:38.460 --> 00:47:42.719
He has looked good recently, I guess, against

00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:49.780
Johnny Fisher. I am happy Dave Allen is getting

00:47:49.780 --> 00:47:55.260
paid. Let's put it that way. Johnny Fisher, his

00:47:55.260 --> 00:48:00.420
father, Big John, he made it onto... So this

00:48:00.420 --> 00:48:04.079
podcast I listen to, it's called Last Podcast

00:48:04.079 --> 00:48:09.079
on the Left. They have like a smorgasbord of

00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:14.300
auxiliary content. Like one thing they do once

00:48:14.300 --> 00:48:18.179
a week. They host a live stream where they just

00:48:18.179 --> 00:48:21.900
watch like shit from social media and stuff.

00:48:22.500 --> 00:48:25.139
Yeah. Like every every week, a different host.

00:48:25.260 --> 00:48:27.920
It's they call it their mandate where they pick

00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:29.519
all the videos that they watch and then they

00:48:29.519 --> 00:48:32.239
all comment. So one of them, one of the guys,

00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:34.820
Henry, he picked a picture. He picked a video

00:48:34.820 --> 00:48:39.300
of he was doing. Is this guy a hero or a villain?

00:48:39.780 --> 00:48:43.639
And he picked Big John Fisher and and he was

00:48:43.639 --> 00:48:49.099
just eating bosh. Yeah. And they're like, they

00:48:49.099 --> 00:48:51.619
came out with he's a villain, but then later

00:48:51.619 --> 00:48:54.780
the next week. They should change that. They

00:48:54.780 --> 00:48:59.159
did. They revamped it. He's actually a good dude.

00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:06.579
I saw a while ago that Big John got on like regular

00:49:06.579 --> 00:49:11.480
TV and they were asking him about some, about

00:49:11.480 --> 00:49:14.699
how people were treating immigrants in Britain

00:49:14.699 --> 00:49:20.139
right now. And he was very serious, did not make

00:49:20.139 --> 00:49:26.400
it jokey at all, and was like... I really was

00:49:26.400 --> 00:49:30.400
a little surprised at how reasonable and good

00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:33.280
his take was. I kind of expected Big John to

00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:37.440
either make it a joke or be crazy right -wing

00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:42.159
a little bit. Yeah. For no reason, I guess. Because

00:49:42.159 --> 00:49:46.019
he wasn't. He was like, no, it has to be controlled,

00:49:46.119 --> 00:49:49.260
but people are here, and you should treat people

00:49:49.260 --> 00:49:51.920
like people, was basically his message. Yeah,

00:49:51.940 --> 00:49:55.019
everyone deserves respect. Yeah, I was like,

00:49:55.099 --> 00:49:57.840
fuck yes, man. Yeah, that's exactly what they

00:49:57.840 --> 00:50:01.260
brought up about him. Yeah, I had been pretty

00:50:01.260 --> 00:50:04.800
indifferent, I guess, to Big John, but after

00:50:04.800 --> 00:50:07.920
I saw that, I was like... Fuck it, yeah. Like,

00:50:07.940 --> 00:50:10.659
he seems like a good dude, actually. Yep. He's

00:50:10.659 --> 00:50:12.579
like, even if you don't think they should be

00:50:12.579 --> 00:50:18.199
here, they're still people. Like, so. And then

00:50:18.199 --> 00:50:20.519
he started going off about all the different,

00:50:20.579 --> 00:50:23.840
like, immigrant cuisines that he likes. Like,

00:50:23.840 --> 00:50:28.260
I like Chinese food, Indian food. Well, I mean,

00:50:28.380 --> 00:50:33.639
it's a good argument. The food is good. Yeah.

00:50:34.909 --> 00:50:38.550
That's Dave Allen, Arslanbek Mahmudov, Josh Padley,

00:50:38.710 --> 00:50:44.750
the electrician in our hearts. I do kind of have

00:50:44.750 --> 00:50:49.530
to cheer for Padley now. Yeah, he's a blue -collar

00:50:49.530 --> 00:50:56.210
guy. He finally got... Realizing his dream. Can't

00:50:56.210 --> 00:50:59.769
help it. Well, he finally got to quit his day

00:50:59.769 --> 00:51:03.429
job, right? Yeah, he did. Realizing his dream.

00:51:04.750 --> 00:51:07.369
Oh, but the other guy is from Herefordshire,

00:51:07.510 --> 00:51:12.309
and I used to have Hereford cattle, so. So Reese

00:51:12.309 --> 00:51:15.269
Bilotti is, you're riding with Reese Bilotti?

00:51:16.090 --> 00:51:25.210
No. But I would like to actually go visit Herefordshire.

00:51:25.550 --> 00:51:29.010
I loved Hereford cows, but that's a different

00:51:29.010 --> 00:51:36.289
podcast. Coming soon to Lux Media. Cows. Yeah.

00:51:37.170 --> 00:51:41.130
Shit at his farming takes. We can call my brother

00:51:41.130 --> 00:51:45.190
and ask him about the border stuff. How is your

00:51:45.190 --> 00:51:49.230
wheat this week? Actually, this year it's not

00:51:49.230 --> 00:51:53.389
great. It's going to be a tough year next year.

00:51:55.889 --> 00:51:59.570
Moving to the second card of the day. Matchroom

00:51:59.570 --> 00:52:03.800
again on DAZN. This one's at the Wells Fargo

00:52:03.800 --> 00:52:08.320
Center in Philadelphia. Nice. Is Isaac going?

00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:13.119
Yep. Nice. He's taking some first -timers, some

00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:16.579
boxing first -timers. Oh, that's exciting. Yeah.

00:52:17.119 --> 00:52:20.539
Picked a good fight to go to. At least the headline's

00:52:20.539 --> 00:52:25.320
awesome. Jaron Ennis. Luis Malima. I think he's

00:52:25.320 --> 00:52:29.460
unheralded. He should give Ennis some good work.

00:52:32.489 --> 00:52:35.269
Oh, I recognize Lima. It should be a good fight.

00:52:35.349 --> 00:52:41.110
I do think Boots probably wins. To me, it's not

00:52:41.110 --> 00:52:43.710
a matter of if. It's just like, how badly is

00:52:43.710 --> 00:52:48.489
he going to beat Lima? And I'm thinking like

00:52:48.489 --> 00:52:52.769
8 -4, 9 -3. Yeah, I don't think he gets a knockout.

00:52:53.429 --> 00:52:59.670
Boots is not a knockout artist. From Angola.

00:53:01.420 --> 00:53:05.980
Lives in Portugal now. Might have to ride with

00:53:05.980 --> 00:53:11.820
the European. Wait, where is Angola? I just made

00:53:11.820 --> 00:53:13.320
myself sound stupid, didn't I? Angola is in Africa,

00:53:13.579 --> 00:53:20.679
but he lives in Portugal now. Okay. Other than

00:53:20.679 --> 00:53:24.360
that, this card is pretty fucking weak. Jesse

00:53:24.360 --> 00:53:28.960
Hart? Yeah. That can't be... It is the son of

00:53:28.960 --> 00:53:33.969
Jesse Hart. This is Jesse Hart, the second coming.

00:53:34.190 --> 00:53:40.630
Okay. Khalil Coe is a matchroom, I don't know,

00:53:40.630 --> 00:53:47.190
prospect, I guess, at 10 -1 -1. That could be

00:53:47.190 --> 00:53:54.389
a fun fight. Local Philly guy? Yeah. And Alexis

00:53:54.389 --> 00:53:59.170
Barillet versus Guido Vianello. I think Barillet

00:53:59.170 --> 00:54:07.869
is Canadian. Is he? Yeah. Ah, very French -Canadian.

00:54:08.889 --> 00:54:12.489
Look at his face, Leo. I know you can't see it.

00:54:12.869 --> 00:54:17.889
Holy shit. That is the most French -Canadian

00:54:17.889 --> 00:54:23.829
looking person on the planet. Verso Guido Vianello.

00:54:24.630 --> 00:54:30.170
How Italian does he look? Quite. France versus

00:54:30.170 --> 00:54:33.030
Italy. I don't know if Guido looks super Italian.

00:54:36.250 --> 00:54:38.389
Other than those three fights, I don't know who

00:54:38.389 --> 00:54:41.590
else is on this. We need to find somebody who

00:54:41.590 --> 00:54:45.010
speaks Quebecois because it's so fucking terrible.

00:54:49.630 --> 00:54:59.070
Isn't... Marlon? He's Filipino. Marlon is Filipino?

00:54:59.489 --> 00:55:04.869
Okay. I don't think there's any French Canadians.

00:55:05.369 --> 00:55:07.150
There's Canadians, but I don't think they're

00:55:07.150 --> 00:55:08.989
French Canadians. There is a French Canadian.

00:55:09.369 --> 00:55:14.130
I am just... It is at the tip of my tongue. I

00:55:14.130 --> 00:55:21.489
know there is one. Aiden's Ontario. I don't know.

00:55:22.369 --> 00:55:25.389
Somebody in there is... We'll have to find him

00:55:25.389 --> 00:55:28.320
so I can make fun of him. Get him to call in

00:55:28.320 --> 00:55:37.780
and drop some tabernax. Is it Vom? Vom's French.

00:55:38.639 --> 00:55:44.179
Okay. I knew he was a French speaker. Yeah. I

00:55:44.179 --> 00:55:47.820
asked him and they don't swear the same. Like

00:55:47.820 --> 00:55:51.059
at all. Yeah. I had asked somebody about that

00:55:51.059 --> 00:55:54.989
too. Because that's what's important. I don't

00:55:54.989 --> 00:55:59.769
know. Yeah, well, I find it funny because the

00:55:59.769 --> 00:56:04.070
Quebec swears are all church things. I can't

00:56:04.070 --> 00:56:06.610
remember the others. Yeah, I can't remember the

00:56:06.610 --> 00:56:08.409
others, but I know they're all church things.

00:56:10.809 --> 00:56:14.949
But what's the Canadian joke? Yeah, of course

00:56:14.949 --> 00:56:20.289
I speak French. Like, yes, no toaster. Quebec

00:56:20.289 --> 00:56:27.329
uses toaster for toaster. We know toaster. That's

00:56:27.329 --> 00:56:31.889
how they say toaster. Toaster. Yeah. We've got

00:56:31.889 --> 00:56:37.010
to phlegm it. You speak through your nose. Anyways,

00:56:38.590 --> 00:56:41.289
I guess enough shitting on Quebec people, but

00:56:41.289 --> 00:56:46.969
go Guido, I guess. We're riding with the Italian.

00:56:47.289 --> 00:56:50.869
Yeah, his name, I thought Guido was like a...

00:56:51.369 --> 00:56:54.670
I thought it was a slur. I thought so too. Yeah,

00:56:54.750 --> 00:56:57.650
I really didn't realize it was a name until I

00:56:57.650 --> 00:57:00.210
was embarrassingly old. I thought Guido was a

00:57:00.210 --> 00:57:02.869
slur. I thought Guido was a slur as well until

00:57:02.869 --> 00:57:06.989
I Guido Vianello. Now I know it's not. Well,

00:57:07.449 --> 00:57:11.429
it kind of is. Yeah, it still is in the West,

00:57:11.610 --> 00:57:13.389
in the US, and probably in Canada as well. It

00:57:13.389 --> 00:57:18.909
depends how you say it. Yeah. Yeah. But it became

00:57:18.909 --> 00:57:22.139
a slur because it was the most... Common name.

00:57:23.300 --> 00:57:29.119
Like calling all Chinese people like Chang. Oh,

00:57:29.179 --> 00:57:35.599
yeah. But sometimes you're just right. Yeah,

00:57:35.679 --> 00:57:39.079
you call them all Guido and chances are one of

00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:41.820
them is going to be named Guido. 10 % of the

00:57:41.820 --> 00:57:45.480
time, you're right. And that's how slurs are

00:57:45.480 --> 00:57:51.110
born. Well, anything more for Boots? No. Boots

00:57:51.110 --> 00:57:56.510
is going to win. When is Boots getting his belt

00:57:56.510 --> 00:58:01.949
shot? Well, if you count the IBO, he's getting

00:58:01.949 --> 00:58:06.750
one right now. Do we count the IBO? We do not

00:58:06.750 --> 00:58:13.469
count the IBO. Good question. He's on the wrong

00:58:13.469 --> 00:58:19.289
side of the promotional divide. Two of the belts

00:58:19.289 --> 00:58:23.420
are with... PBC with Fundora, who's fighting

00:58:23.420 --> 00:58:28.000
Keith Thurman for whatever reason. Keith Thurman

00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:32.320
needs to just retire. You're old. Xander Zayas

00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:36.360
at top rank has won. Which one am I missing?

00:58:37.460 --> 00:58:45.440
WBA. Terrence Crawford had it. He must have dropped

00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:51.619
it. Abbas Baru, the German guy. He's the one

00:58:51.619 --> 00:58:55.199
who has it now. Do you think he would fight Boots?

00:58:56.420 --> 00:59:00.019
For that kind of payout, probably. It's probably

00:59:00.019 --> 00:59:02.440
going to be a better payout than he's seen at

00:59:02.440 --> 00:59:07.340
this point in his career. But yeah, Beru is the

00:59:07.340 --> 00:59:10.079
one who stands out. He's like the weakest link

00:59:10.079 --> 00:59:15.679
of the three. Boots is listed as number one contender

00:59:15.679 --> 00:59:22.800
by the WBA that Beru has. Lovely. Because I think

00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:27.280
Virgil Ortiz and Sebastian Fedora are kind of

00:59:27.280 --> 00:59:29.900
lined up to fight that one out, aren't they?

00:59:31.119 --> 00:59:34.239
Not lined up as in anything signed, but that

00:59:34.239 --> 00:59:39.079
feels like it's going to happen. Or no? Wait

00:59:39.079 --> 00:59:43.920
a tick. Who has the IBF? Is that Murtazaliev?

00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:49.740
That's right. I forgot about him. Mertazaliev,

00:59:49.740 --> 00:59:58.179
Fundora, Zayas, and Baru. I don't... Mertazaliev

00:59:58.179 --> 01:00:01.679
might give Boots a shot. He's not listed very

01:00:01.679 --> 01:00:05.699
high in their rankings, though. Josh Kelly is

01:00:05.699 --> 01:00:10.159
the top of that one. He's also the top of the

01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:14.460
WBO. Wait, I'm not tripping, right? Zayas has

01:00:14.460 --> 01:00:19.289
the WBO? Yeah. Okay. But Josh Kelly is listed

01:00:19.289 --> 01:00:26.969
next. Yeah. Let me do this. Support for this

01:00:26.969 --> 01:00:29.909
episode is from Ramen Bay. We love ramen, but

01:00:29.909 --> 01:00:33.809
wish it had more, you know, fresh toppings that

01:00:33.809 --> 01:00:36.769
take it from good to epic. But who has time for

01:00:36.769 --> 01:00:39.750
all that chopping and shit? Well, get ready to

01:00:39.750 --> 01:00:42.130
level up your noodle game with Ramen Bay. It's

01:00:42.130 --> 01:00:44.150
the ultimate topper that brings big flavor and

01:00:44.150 --> 01:00:46.530
incredible texture right into your bowl in seconds.

01:00:47.090 --> 01:00:50.590
Imagine perfectly seasoned beef or seafood, vibrant

01:00:50.590 --> 01:00:53.489
vegetables or savory mushrooms, all freeze -dried

01:00:53.489 --> 01:00:56.769
to lock in peak freshness and flavor. Just sprinkle

01:00:56.769 --> 01:00:59.070
as much ramen bae as your heart desires as you're

01:00:59.070 --> 01:01:01.469
boiling up your hot ramen, stir, and watch it

01:01:01.469 --> 01:01:05.969
transform. Pop quiz, hotshot. What's tiny, fuzzy,

01:01:06.150 --> 01:01:08.650
and responsible for a large portion of the food

01:01:08.650 --> 01:01:11.340
we eat? If you guessed bees, well, you nailed

01:01:11.340 --> 01:01:14.440
it. Seriously, one out of every three bites on

01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:17.179
your plate depends on bees. So there's a bit

01:01:17.179 --> 01:01:19.679
of bad news here. These little heroes of our

01:01:19.679 --> 01:01:22.820
gardens and dinners are struggling. Between habitat

01:01:22.820 --> 01:01:26.800
loss, climate change, and pesticides, it's a

01:01:26.800 --> 01:01:29.340
fucking bummer. Without them, our world would

01:01:29.340 --> 01:01:31.500
look a lot different and it would be a lot less

01:01:31.500 --> 01:01:34.420
delicious. But there is good news. Support for

shit goes. Nice. Let's see here. We've mentioned

01:02:29.059 --> 01:02:31.760
it a few times, the phone line. It's anonymous

01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:35.320
and it's unattended. I don't even answer my own

01:02:35.320 --> 01:02:38.579

01:02:48.579 --> 01:02:50.360

Marlon, Zoe, Lynn, who are these people? Go to

Discord. LVX .BE slash Discord. If you want to

01:03:11.349 --> 01:03:14.929
get rid of ads, number one. Number two, you want

01:03:14.929 --> 01:03:16.949
to bypass a little bit of the hazing that happens

01:03:16.949 --> 01:03:20.670
for the new people, which I do absolutely nothing

01:03:20.670 --> 01:03:26.440
to improve that situation. Patreon. Get yourself

01:03:29.000 --> 01:03:32.639
that, you get yourself a roll color, and that'll

01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:37.039
spare you a little bit of the anguish of being

01:03:37.039 --> 01:03:41.800
a new person. But that's lvx .be slash Patreon.

01:03:42.900 --> 01:03:45.219
Alright, with all that bullshit out of the way,

01:03:45.400 --> 01:03:52.159
parting words. Parting words. Hmm. I am very

01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:54.690
excited that fall is here. And I think everyone

01:03:54.690 --> 01:03:58.309
should go see some leaves, depending on the timing.

01:03:58.530 --> 01:04:00.909
They haven't started changing colors here yet,

01:04:00.949 --> 01:04:03.849
but I'm sure in northern areas they're changing.

01:04:07.590 --> 01:04:10.349
Don't do something outside. Don't touch grass,

01:04:10.590 --> 01:04:12.849
I guess is my parting word. Don't touch leaves.

01:04:14.570 --> 01:04:19.869
Look at leaves and touch grass. For parting words,

01:04:20.210 --> 01:04:25.000
I'm going to say go read Josh's stuff. On the

01:04:25.000 --> 01:04:30.000
Wayside Sports Review. Yeah, I like Josh's takes,

01:04:30.139 --> 01:04:37.920
and his writing is good. Usually. Usually. Every

01:04:37.920 --> 01:04:42.800
once in a while, he gets a little off -topic

01:04:42.800 --> 01:04:52.400
and rambly. Well, Josh and rambly ranty. I fucking...

01:04:53.679 --> 01:04:57.280
I love Josh's rants. It's my favorite part of

01:04:57.280 --> 01:05:01.559
B -Sides. I'm so happy you got him to join. Man,

01:05:01.559 --> 01:05:08.420
he volunteered. Didn't have to ask him. I'm so

01:05:08.420 --> 01:05:12.500
happy when he goes off. Yeah, it's always funny.

01:05:15.400 --> 01:05:17.880
Alright, is that it for this edition? I think

01:05:17.880 --> 01:05:23.039
that's it. My batteries are getting low. it is

01:05:23.039 --> 01:05:28.820
getting dark boxing before dark we out we out

01:05:28.820 --> 01:05:32.480
here we'll see you on the other side of uh ns

01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:34.619
lima yay
