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. 00:00:06.700 --> 00:00:11.279 Back. Back. Back. Before. Before. Before. Before. 00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:15.019 Boxing. Boxing. Boxing. Boxing Before Dark. This 00:00:15.019 --> 00:00:27.500 is Boxing Before Dark. Alright. Boxing Before 00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:32.409 Dark. Back up in your ears, bitch. Oh, there's 00:00:32.409 --> 00:00:35.829 a whole lot of other talk. You want to hear what 00:00:35.829 --> 00:00:37.329 that is? You're going to have to go to Patreon 00:00:37.329 --> 00:00:44.750 and hear all about fucking baseball. And how 00:00:44.750 --> 00:00:48.090 neither of us watch it. I just do not give a 00:00:48.090 --> 00:00:54.469 shit about baseball until it's October. If the 00:00:54.469 --> 00:00:56.450 Diamondbacks are not in the playoffs, then I 00:00:56.450 --> 00:01:02.590 continue to not care. I got to cheer for the 00:01:02.590 --> 00:01:07.129 Jays. It's like nationally required. Yeah, same 00:01:07.129 --> 00:01:10.090 reason I cheer for the Diamondbacks. I don't 00:01:10.090 --> 00:01:13.069 care about the sport, but if I'm going to be 00:01:13.069 --> 00:01:15.230 pulling for anyone, it's going to be for my home 00:01:15.230 --> 00:01:22.299 team. Yeah. I found out... today that not today 00:01:22.299 --> 00:01:25.420 yesterday that it's beau bichette and not beau 00:01:25.420 --> 00:01:33.640 bitchett beau bitchett i thought there was an 00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.620 extra t in there i've been saying it wrong for 00:01:36.620 --> 00:01:39.879 like years because he's been on the jays for 00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:47.000 years i saw this one this post on instagram it 00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:50.620 was like hockey players And it was, do you know 00:01:50.620 --> 00:01:53.340 how to say their names? And all the foreign players 00:01:53.340 --> 00:01:57.760 were on like saying. Oh yeah. I think I sent 00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.099 it to you. Okay. That's where I saw it then. 00:02:00.260 --> 00:02:03.000 Yeah. Yeah. All the Scandinavian names mostly. 00:02:03.060 --> 00:02:06.159 I thought it was hilarious. I was the Finnish 00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:09.659 players with all the, I tried to, I tried my 00:02:09.659 --> 00:02:12.259 best to pronounce them. Like I, I do my best 00:02:12.259 --> 00:02:15.719 with between boxing and, uh, keeping up with 00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:20.030 MMA. uh ultimate effing casuals you know just 00:02:20.030 --> 00:02:23.509 a subtle little slide in right there uh but keeping 00:02:23.509 --> 00:02:26.969 up with mma and boxing like i have i thought 00:02:26.969 --> 00:02:30.229 i was good with names but apparently not scandinavia 00:02:30.229 --> 00:02:32.370 is a whole another that's a completely different 00:02:32.370 --> 00:02:37.289 kettle of fish yep all right let's get into a 00:02:37.289 --> 00:02:42.270 little bit of the news here uh xilei zhang is 00:02:42.270 --> 00:02:46.389 he has accepted terms Sign the contract to fight 00:02:46.389 --> 00:02:51.129 Derek Chizora. I don't know how to feel about 00:02:51.129 --> 00:02:56.389 this one. I kind of think Chizora can win. You 00:02:56.389 --> 00:03:00.550 think so? If he avoids that big right hand, or 00:03:00.550 --> 00:03:04.330 left, or whichever one Zhang hits him with. Like, 00:03:04.330 --> 00:03:10.009 Chizora is so good at being washed, he keeps 00:03:10.009 --> 00:03:15.650 his... He keeps what little gas tank he has until 00:03:15.650 --> 00:03:19.509 the end. He's that little shitbox car that runs 00:03:19.509 --> 00:03:25.150 300 miles on empty. Like... I don't know. I think 00:03:25.150 --> 00:03:29.669 Chizora could outlast him. Jank has a terrible 00:03:29.669 --> 00:03:36.710 gas tank. He does. Oh, man. Now that... I was 00:03:36.710 --> 00:03:39.909 just thinking about the power and, like, Chizora 00:03:39.909 --> 00:03:43.590 gets hit. But Chizora's... been hit and not gone 00:03:43.590 --> 00:03:46.849 down too though at some point the jar's gotta 00:03:46.849 --> 00:03:52.069 open and i'm not i'm not saying he can't lose 00:03:52.069 --> 00:03:59.270 i'm saying he can win i might put 10 bucks on 00:03:59.270 --> 00:04:04.169 chizora i don't know i don't think this is good 00:04:04.169 --> 00:04:07.009 enough for me to break my my no gambling streak 00:04:07.009 --> 00:04:11.710 yeah i I throw small bets on bullshit all the 00:04:11.710 --> 00:04:17.589 time. But this might actually be a more fun fight 00:04:17.589 --> 00:04:20.670 than anyone is thinking. Or it could be absolutely 00:04:20.670 --> 00:04:22.949 terrible, where neither one of them does anything. 00:04:23.350 --> 00:04:27.509 But I do think Chizora will push the pace. Like, 00:04:27.509 --> 00:04:32.689 that's gonna be his game plan. To force Zhang's 00:04:32.689 --> 00:04:41.170 hand and make him gas? Yeah. I'm not so sure. 00:04:41.389 --> 00:04:44.230 I don't have that much faith in Chizora. Despite 00:04:44.230 --> 00:04:47.569 him continuing to prove me wrong every time he's 00:04:47.569 --> 00:04:51.209 been out in the last how many years, I continue 00:04:51.209 --> 00:04:54.670 to not have faith in him. You gotta have faith. 00:04:55.329 --> 00:04:58.769 It's Chizora. He doesn't stop. He should, but 00:04:58.769 --> 00:05:05.810 he doesn't. Yeah. And he sounds like a dying 00:05:06.829 --> 00:05:16.490 How? While he's fighting, but... Um... Well... 00:05:16.490 --> 00:05:19.370 Is this finally Chizora's last fight, or does 00:05:19.370 --> 00:05:22.350 he have two left? This is the one that's last 00:05:22.350 --> 00:05:26.790 on his contract. Okay, this should be, like, 00:05:26.889 --> 00:05:30.230 actually last. Should be the end of his career 00:05:30.230 --> 00:05:36.720 as well. Should. I want Chizora... I want Chizora 00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:46.079 to go out on a win. Yeah. He is. I don't know. 00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:49.199 You gotta back Delboy. Especially if it's his 00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:53.459 final farewell. That being said, if he wins, 00:05:53.500 --> 00:05:59.060 he probably doesn't retire. Oh. I forgot that 00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:05.899 he does that. Rather than go out on a win. Let's 00:06:05.899 --> 00:06:08.180 let it ride, baby. We're going to keep fucking 00:06:08.180 --> 00:06:11.980 going. No, dude. This was supposed to be your 00:06:11.980 --> 00:06:16.339 farewell. You got a big win against a big puncher. 00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:21.899 You outfoxed him. This is the time to go out. 00:06:21.980 --> 00:06:27.000 This is your glory moment. But you know he's 00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.959 not going to let that happen. Exactly. He's not 00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:34.850 going to let that happen. But. I still want Del 00:06:34.850 --> 00:06:41.410 Boy to win. Fuck it. Let it ride. Speaking of 00:06:41.410 --> 00:06:45.689 letting it ride, Manny Pacquiao, one of his rumored 00:06:45.689 --> 00:06:51.449 opponents for his return in January, Vasily Lomachenko. 00:06:52.430 --> 00:06:56.870 I thought Pacquiao was fighting Roley. I thought 00:06:56.870 --> 00:07:00.160 so too, but Lomachenko's kind of been... coming 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.079 up on the rumor mill as the likely frontrunner. 00:07:04.540 --> 00:07:07.040 Do you think Loma actually comes out of retirement? 00:07:07.339 --> 00:07:13.800 For Pacquiao paycheck? Absolutely. Fair. I don't 00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.040 know, man. I think if Lomachenko comes out of 00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:19.720 retirement, the Pacquiao fairy tale might be 00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:24.379 over. Depending on if Lomachenko trains up for 00:07:24.379 --> 00:07:28.620 it and stuff. If he takes it seriously? Yeah. 00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:33.519 I think he will. I think he'll want to put an 00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:40.100 exclamation point on the win. And out -ballet 00:07:40.100 --> 00:07:48.800 Pacquiao's dead calves. I mean, it depends on 00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:51.920 what Lomachenko looks like now, I guess. But 00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:56.920 I can't see Pacquiao catching Lomachenko at all. 00:07:57.290 --> 00:07:59.449 The weight class matters because of exactly what 00:07:59.449 --> 00:08:02.230 you just said. Because if they're fighting at 00:08:02.230 --> 00:08:08.050 147, Lomachenko was already small for 135. Yeah, 00:08:08.329 --> 00:08:15.990 but I don't see Pacquiao hitting him. Pacquiao's 00:08:15.990 --> 00:08:19.449 not that fast anymore. No, he's not. His hands 00:08:19.449 --> 00:08:22.810 are pretty fast, but his feet are not. You're 00:08:22.810 --> 00:08:27.740 right. Like, I'm not saying he couldn't possibly 00:08:27.740 --> 00:08:30.240 catch Lomachenko, but I'm saying if Lomachenko 00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:34.580 doesn't look super old and out of shape, he just 00:08:34.580 --> 00:08:37.600 doesn't catch Lomachenko. Right. If Lomachenko 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.340 has any semblance of his old form, then it's 00:08:41.340 --> 00:08:46.120 going to be a problem for Pacquiao. Like... This 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:49.600 version of Pacquiao, let's fucking be really 00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:53.909 clear so that the hate mongers don't... find 00:08:53.909 --> 00:08:58.809 some reason to send hate mail. Well, I mean, 00:08:58.850 --> 00:09:01.009 if they fight now, it's this version. That's 00:09:01.009 --> 00:09:03.350 the only thing we can be talking about. Yeah, 00:09:03.350 --> 00:09:07.769 well, you know how people get when talking about 00:09:07.769 --> 00:09:12.750 the old favorites. I guess it hasn't even been 00:09:12.750 --> 00:09:15.289 a year since Lomachenko fought. I kind of completely 00:09:15.289 --> 00:09:21.429 forgot about that. Kambosa's fight. That's right. 00:09:22.059 --> 00:09:25.139 I thought he had been out longer. I did too. 00:09:25.740 --> 00:09:28.399 Yeah, I don't think there's any hope in hell 00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:34.340 of Pacquiao catching Lomachenko. Shaking my head 00:09:34.340 --> 00:09:39.779 for those who can't see. They also don't have 00:09:39.779 --> 00:09:43.340 his age on BoxRec, but he's like five years younger 00:09:43.340 --> 00:09:46.159 than Pacquiao? They don't put their age on when 00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:51.830 they're inactive. For whatever reason. Loma's 00:09:51.830 --> 00:09:56.769 my age. Loma's my age and Pacquiao's, what, 47? 00:09:58.809 --> 00:10:03.789 46, 47. So Lomachenko's a whole 11 years younger. 00:10:04.029 --> 00:10:08.610 10 or 11 years younger. Wow. There's no fucking 00:10:08.610 --> 00:10:11.850 way Pacquiao catches Loma. Not in my opinion. 00:10:17.210 --> 00:10:21.230 Failed segue. Fandora Thurman. rescheduled for 00:10:21.230 --> 00:10:26.230 Pacquiao undercard. Is this a good move? Does 00:10:26.230 --> 00:10:30.289 this... I don't know. I feel like Pacquiao is 00:10:30.289 --> 00:10:35.070 a big enough name to be worthy of having that 00:10:35.070 --> 00:10:40.009 big of a co -main. But at the same time, this 00:10:40.009 --> 00:10:43.149 could still be a main event, right? Yeah, Juan, 00:10:43.210 --> 00:10:45.370 it depends who's Pacquiao fighting. Pacquiao 00:10:45.370 --> 00:10:49.669 Lomachenko, that's two big names. Pacquiao, Rolly... 00:10:49.669 --> 00:10:53.970 I'd probably be more excited for the Fundora 00:10:53.970 --> 00:11:01.149 Thurman card, to be honest. I don't know. Thurman's 00:11:01.149 --> 00:11:03.309 also... I don't give a shit about Thurman anymore. 00:11:05.490 --> 00:11:07.929 I don't remember the last time I gave a shit 00:11:07.929 --> 00:11:11.870 about Keith Thurman. That's kind of what I mean, 00:11:11.870 --> 00:11:15.070 though. He's definitely a name, but he's not 00:11:15.070 --> 00:11:18.309 a name that I care about. Somebody does, but... 00:11:18.309 --> 00:11:25.889 Fandora's main event level, to me, every time, 00:11:25.990 --> 00:11:31.649 he's always exciting. But maybe they also kind 00:11:31.649 --> 00:11:35.750 of... How do I put it? Pacquiao's gonna bring 00:11:35.750 --> 00:11:39.149 in casuals, no matter who he fights. So putting 00:11:39.149 --> 00:11:43.370 a good fight underneath it is kind of like putting 00:11:43.370 --> 00:11:47.539 a good co -main on a Jake Paul event. Like, you'll 00:11:47.539 --> 00:11:51.059 get some casual seeing a really good fight. Right. 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:53.399 Is Fandora Thurman gonna be a really good fight? 00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:56.539 I don't know, but... Depends a lot on Thurman. 00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:02.399 Oh. Fandora's always fun. Right. But... That's 00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:04.340 a good way to put it. This is like putting a 00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:08.940 good co -main on Jake Paul, Mike Tyson. Yeah. 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:17.710 Like... It gets some casuals to see good boxing 00:12:17.710 --> 00:12:23.049 and not just a washed Pacquiao fighting whoever. 00:12:25.210 --> 00:12:29.490 Getting styled on by Lomachenko. I really do 00:12:29.490 --> 00:12:32.470 think that would be so one -sided. It would be 00:12:32.470 --> 00:12:41.049 sad. Usually, when it comes to situations like 00:12:41.049 --> 00:12:44.960 this, specifically with Jake Paul, for what you 00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:49.740 outlined, I always looked at it as 10 ,000 people 00:12:49.740 --> 00:12:53.600 are going to watch, just for example numbers, 00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:58.100 10 ,000 people are going to watch simply because 00:12:58.100 --> 00:13:07.799 it's Manny Pacquiao. Of those 10 ,000, 1 ,000 00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:10.950 of them... Start to follow the sport a little 00:13:10.950 --> 00:13:15.250 bit. And of that thousand. Maybe ten of them 00:13:15.250 --> 00:13:20.710 become hardcore fans. Maybe. Yeah. Maybe. Maybe 00:13:20.710 --> 00:13:23.269 ten of them buy the next pay -per -view. Yeah. 00:13:24.529 --> 00:13:30.850 Like we all do. Really. I'm not sure how to. 00:13:30.929 --> 00:13:34.649 Just shaking my fist here. Like a real happy 00:13:34.649 --> 00:13:41.129 -go -lucky guy. Paying my dues. I've said it 00:13:41.129 --> 00:13:44.049 before. I don't mind paying for good cards. I 00:13:44.049 --> 00:13:47.470 have the money now. But some of the cards that 00:13:47.470 --> 00:13:50.850 they make pay -per -view are garbage. They're 00:13:50.850 --> 00:13:54.330 not even garbage. They're worth like $30. Not 00:13:54.330 --> 00:13:59.970 $80. Well, speaking of cards not being garbage, 00:14:01.169 --> 00:14:06.610 Pitbull Roach has been bolstered considerably. 00:14:08.870 --> 00:14:14.220 Jannybeck. versus Eris Landilara and Oshaki Foster 00:14:14.220 --> 00:14:17.019 versus Stephen Fulton have been added to the 00:14:17.019 --> 00:14:21.340 undercard. That is going to upgrade this. That's 00:14:21.340 --> 00:14:23.919 $80 right there. I'll pay $80 for that. Yeah, 00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:27.139 yeah. I was bitching last week, but with those 00:14:27.139 --> 00:14:33.240 two added, it's worth $80. Yep. We went on so 00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:35.919 long that we just kind of were repeating ourselves 00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:40.970 just because of how dissatisfying it was. But 00:14:40.970 --> 00:14:44.269 not this. Not this. Nuh -uh. This is worth it. 00:14:44.389 --> 00:14:49.610 Yeah, no, this is worth it. Is it one of those 00:14:49.610 --> 00:14:53.490 ones where you would tell a gray, stop being 00:14:53.490 --> 00:14:57.950 a broke little bitch, or is $80 still enough 00:14:57.950 --> 00:15:04.649 to be a little bit more understanding? I don't... 00:15:04.649 --> 00:15:07.950 If you're actually broke, like if you have to... 00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:12.080 budget for $80, I probably wouldn't spend it 00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:17.240 on this one. But, if you budgeting for $80 is 00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:21.279 not going to the bar this weekend, then it's 00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:24.980 worth $80 to you. You know what I mean? If $80 00:15:24.980 --> 00:15:28.159 is going to the bar on Friday with your friends, 00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.440 then... If you have the disposable income. Yeah. 00:15:31.580 --> 00:15:34.720 But if $80 is like, oh, I guess I'm eating beans 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:37.639 and rice for the next two weeks. Or three weeks. 00:15:40.079 --> 00:15:43.919 Yeah, depending where your financial status is. 00:15:44.100 --> 00:15:46.440 But if it's like, I'm going to stay home and 00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:48.679 watch the $80 pay -per -view instead of having 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:51.720 drinks with my friends, it's worth it. Yeah, 00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:56.960 definitely. Or you could just have people over 00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:06.139 and charge them $5. BYOB? Yeah. Sorry, that was 00:16:06.139 --> 00:16:12.009 my alarm. I didn't hear it. So there you go. 00:16:12.169 --> 00:16:17.990 That's a callback to Patreon content. Richard 00:16:17.990 --> 00:16:24.009 Torres versus Tomas Salek. Who is Tomas Salek? 00:16:24.169 --> 00:16:32.429 Yes. He certainly is a fighter of all time. I 00:16:32.429 --> 00:16:40.850 don't know. He's from Czechia? All right. Yeah. 00:16:41.210 --> 00:16:44.929 All right. I don't know. I was trying to find 00:16:44.929 --> 00:16:48.389 something. I don't recognize any names on his 00:16:48.389 --> 00:16:51.190 box rec. It was just that it's Richard Torres. 00:16:51.350 --> 00:16:54.389 That's pretty much it. Yeah. I like Richard Torres. 00:16:56.409 --> 00:17:00.769 Yeah, I think this card's in Mexico. Oh, that's 00:17:00.769 --> 00:17:06.569 fun. On the Rafael Espinosa. Oh. Yeah, yeah, 00:17:06.569 --> 00:17:09.849 yeah. I am actually starting to get a little 00:17:09.849 --> 00:17:12.250 excited for that card as well. Yeah, they're 00:17:12.250 --> 00:17:15.990 putting something together. And I need to see 00:17:15.990 --> 00:17:20.569 how far it is into Mexico. See if I'm going to 00:17:20.569 --> 00:17:24.609 try to go. Nice. It depends on how far the drive 00:17:24.609 --> 00:17:30.349 is. I'm going to have to take my decals off. 00:17:33.569 --> 00:17:39.380 A little just geopolitical problem. for people 00:17:39.380 --> 00:17:46.059 like me. Geopolitical problem. Kubrat Pulev versus 00:17:46.059 --> 00:17:51.740 Murat Gasyev. I am glad that Pulev is not Atalma's 00:17:51.740 --> 00:17:59.200 next fight. Why is that? I don't know. I don't 00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:02.359 feel like Pulev would be any of a step up for 00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:08.849 Atalma. Pulev's old. Yes. And he hasn't looked 00:18:08.849 --> 00:18:16.309 good. Gassiev is fucking donkey balls at heavyweight. 00:18:16.390 --> 00:18:21.849 Yeah, this is too... Whatever. This is a whatever 00:18:21.849 --> 00:18:24.230 fight. I'm probably not going to watch this. 00:18:24.529 --> 00:18:28.589 You had previously referred to... What was it? 00:18:29.109 --> 00:18:32.849 Ryan Garcia versus Mario Barrios as an ass -off. 00:18:33.430 --> 00:18:36.960 Yeah. This is another ass -off. Yeah, but this 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:39.299 is a heavyweight ass -off, which is even worse. 00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:44.220 True, because they can be... Heavyweight slop 00:18:44.220 --> 00:18:49.839 is different from lower weight classes. It's 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:55.059 so slow, and there's so much hugging. I mean, 00:18:55.140 --> 00:19:00.259 Chizora beat Pulev three years ago. Chizora beat 00:19:00.259 --> 00:19:07.660 Pulev? Yeah. Three years ago. I think Atalma 00:19:07.660 --> 00:19:13.380 can handle better competition than Kubrat Pulev, 00:19:13.500 --> 00:19:20.559 even if he is a name. That's why I'm glad. He's 00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:25.980 a name, but Murat Gassiev, this is for the WBA 00:19:25.980 --> 00:19:32.460 regular fucking title. Is it? Yes, it is. How? 00:19:34.259 --> 00:19:37.609 Jesus Christ. Yeah, because Kubrat Pulev is the 00:19:37.609 --> 00:19:46.109 regular champ. How? Because it's the WBA. They 00:19:46.109 --> 00:19:51.269 do stupid shit. Fair enough. They are among... 00:19:51.269 --> 00:19:58.049 Their brand of stupid shit is diluting the value 00:19:58.049 --> 00:20:02.490 of their own titles. That's what they do. They 00:20:02.490 --> 00:20:07.539 have too many... Other belts. Yeah. Super champ, 00:20:07.660 --> 00:20:10.339 regular champ, interim champ. We've gone on a 00:20:10.339 --> 00:20:13.619 couple rants about how I get so lost with the 00:20:13.619 --> 00:20:19.359 WBA belt. Well, this does nothing to improve 00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:27.420 the situation. No. Oh, speaking of improving 00:20:27.420 --> 00:20:33.839 situations. Rolly versus Shakram Giyasov. ordered 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:38.079 for a defense of his WBA welterweight title. 00:20:40.220 --> 00:20:45.740 Should I know who Giyasov is? I barely know who 00:20:45.740 --> 00:20:54.640 he is. So, not really. Another Uzbek. Uzbek boxing 00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:58.680 is popping off right now. It is. It's been popping 00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:04.930 off since the 2016 Olympics. Fair enough. But 00:21:04.930 --> 00:21:07.349 they're all getting into world contention right 00:21:07.349 --> 00:21:14.890 now. Yes. Yeah, I don't have much of an opinion 00:21:14.890 --> 00:21:17.990 on this one. I like Rolly being a champ just 00:21:17.990 --> 00:21:23.769 because I think it's funny. It is. I was thinking 00:21:23.769 --> 00:21:26.109 of what I was going to say as a reply to your 00:21:26.109 --> 00:21:31.200 why you like Rolly being a champ. And my immediate 00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:34.799 thought was, it's funny. It's just too funny 00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:38.319 that he's a champion. Oh, two -time, two -weight 00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:41.539 class world champion, Rolly Romero? Like, come 00:21:41.539 --> 00:21:45.480 on. How could that not make you smile? It's too 00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:54.059 fun. Another fight ordered by the WBA, Nick Ball 00:21:54.059 --> 00:21:58.740 versus Brandon Figueroa. Oh. Somebody was asking 00:21:58.740 --> 00:22:02.240 me if Nick Ball was good. That must be why they 00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:11.579 saw this. Is Nick Ball good? No. Depends. If 00:22:11.579 --> 00:22:14.400 you're from the UK, then he's like the second 00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:18.339 coming of Jesus. He's the second coming of fucking 00:22:18.339 --> 00:22:27.470 Josh Warrington is what he is. I am not a fan. 00:22:28.430 --> 00:22:31.750 Yeah, he's proven himself to be pretty limited, 00:22:31.869 --> 00:22:36.529 but his limitations are at a high enough level 00:22:36.529 --> 00:22:41.609 that he can beat guys like Ray Vargas. I guess, 00:22:41.849 --> 00:22:48.730 yeah. Or Ray Ford. I don't know. I think Figueroa 00:22:48.730 --> 00:22:53.220 can handle Nick Ball. I think so, too. It's not 00:22:53.220 --> 00:22:58.220 a bad fight, but I think Figueroa is a good enough 00:22:58.220 --> 00:23:01.140 boxer that Nick Ball's not going to overwhelm 00:23:01.140 --> 00:23:05.319 him. The height difference is going to be humorous. 00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:14.700 Very humorous. Yeah, my answer to is Nick Ball 00:23:14.700 --> 00:23:21.579 good is usually no. I would say he's alright. 00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:29.299 But I'm typically overly generous with my assessments. 00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:33.619 Like I try to be, try to give a positive spin 00:23:33.619 --> 00:23:40.240 to anything. I'm too nice, I guess. I don't know. 00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:45.599 Yeah. So I would say he's all right. Anyways, 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:50.319 I'm going to be backing Espinoza. Figueroa? Figueroa. 00:23:50.420 --> 00:23:53.740 Whoever he's fighting. The tall Mexican guy. 00:23:54.000 --> 00:23:57.200 Doesn't fucking matter who it is. Not really. 00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:01.180 No. Oh, Figueroa is the one that looks like he's 00:24:01.180 --> 00:24:03.460 wearing eye makeup all the time. That's correct. 00:24:03.660 --> 00:24:08.640 Okay. Yes. He has very nice eyelashes. I am jealous. 00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:21.279 Natural eyeliner. Natural mascara. Yeah, but 00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:23.299 he looks like he's wearing both eyeliner and 00:24:23.299 --> 00:24:26.059 mascara all the time. Maybe he is. I don't know. 00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:32.619 If it were to come out that he was or that he 00:24:32.619 --> 00:24:35.599 does, it wouldn't surprise me. Just because he's 00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:42.400 done modeling and he's been in movies. His nickname 00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:56.230 is the Heartbreaker. Well, Nick Ball versus Brandon 00:24:56.230 --> 00:25:01.869 Figueroa. I'm riding with Figueroa. I think most 00:25:01.869 --> 00:25:04.609 of North America will be riding with Figueroa 00:25:04.609 --> 00:25:11.930 on that one. Another kind of no -name opponent, 00:25:12.269 --> 00:25:17.589 Diego Pacheco versus Kevin Sancho. I do not know 00:25:17.589 --> 00:25:20.089 who that is either. I don't either. I just know 00:25:20.089 --> 00:25:24.250 that Diego Pacheco is back in December. Nice. 00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:27.200 I'm hopeful that he's going to put another clinic 00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:33.960 on. Kevin Sajo. His nickname is The Punisher. 00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:42.660 Is this the right guy? Yes. He is French Cameroonian 00:25:42.660 --> 00:25:47.420 that moved to France. That is like a boxing pipeline. 00:25:47.700 --> 00:25:50.140 There are a ton of people from Cameroon that 00:25:50.140 --> 00:25:53.400 moved to France. And by a ton, I can think of 00:25:53.400 --> 00:25:57.269 three. that's a lot there's probably like several 00:25:57.269 --> 00:26:00.329 dozen others that have done it that we don't 00:26:00.329 --> 00:26:04.390 know about but cameroon to france it's one of 00:26:04.390 --> 00:26:11.190 those like they have a uh history yeah i think 00:26:11.190 --> 00:26:14.109 colonial cameroon speaks french yeah they're 00:26:14.109 --> 00:26:17.890 francophones it's a colonial thing like because 00:26:17.890 --> 00:26:21.430 you were a former colony you're you couldn't 00:26:21.430 --> 00:26:27.359 kind of get fast track to That makes sense. Sorry 00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:33.660 for ruining your entire fucking lives. Your governments 00:26:33.660 --> 00:26:38.359 and everything. Sorry about that. Come to Paris. 00:26:38.619 --> 00:26:46.799 It's pretty cool here. Yeah, I assume Pacheco 00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:51.259 is probably going to win this. Yeah, it's a safe 00:26:51.259 --> 00:26:56.180 assumption, but... I'm trying to think of a safe 00:26:56.180 --> 00:27:00.599 assumption that we had. Where someone from France 00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:04.880 sparked somebody? Yeah. That's exactly the one. 00:27:05.779 --> 00:27:10.740 I'm wondering, who could that have been? Pacheco 00:27:10.740 --> 00:27:18.099 better not get Sarast. Sarast is a good verb. 00:27:19.059 --> 00:27:23.609 Yeah. It has... come into my vocabulary. I really 00:27:23.609 --> 00:27:26.410 like it. Because you can almost tell what it 00:27:26.410 --> 00:27:29.309 means even if you don't get the reference. True. 00:27:29.529 --> 00:27:31.829 Because it sounds like you're saying sauced. 00:27:31.970 --> 00:27:34.750 Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. It 00:27:34.750 --> 00:27:39.269 sounds like you're getting styled on even if 00:27:39.269 --> 00:27:47.089 you don't know what the styling is. Well, speaking 00:27:47.089 --> 00:27:51.720 of styling, Amanda Serrano. is back in January. 00:27:52.539 --> 00:27:57.339 She's going to be fighting in Puerto Rico. That's 00:27:57.339 --> 00:27:59.920 nice. Homecoming fight? I don't know if it's 00:27:59.920 --> 00:28:03.519 homecoming, just because she's fought in PR a 00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:07.019 few times. I don't think it's that she's been 00:28:07.019 --> 00:28:11.380 away for an extended period. It's been a long 00:28:11.380 --> 00:28:15.700 time, hasn't it? Now I want to check. Which one's 00:28:15.700 --> 00:28:20.220 the Puerto Rico flag? Red and white stripes, 00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:24.839 blue with a star. Like four years? Four years. 00:28:24.940 --> 00:28:28.119 Okay, so this is homecoming then. If that's the 00:28:28.119 --> 00:28:33.799 case. Yeah, the first one I can find on BoxRec 00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:41.339 is... 2021. Wow. Okay. Homecoming fight it is. 00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:49.500 Actually, she hasn't fought in Puerto Rico very 00:28:49.500 --> 00:28:53.519 much. Almost all her fights are in the States 00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:58.859 or the Dominican. Really? That's Dominican, right? 00:28:58.940 --> 00:29:03.460 The white cross with the red and blue? I believe 00:29:03.460 --> 00:29:09.900 so. Santo Domingo is Dominican? Yeah, that's 00:29:09.900 --> 00:29:15.640 Dominican. Yeah. That's surprising because I 00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:18.710 know... She lived a lot of her life in New York. 00:29:19.329 --> 00:29:24.410 I mean, Puerto Rican, New York. That's a fucking 00:29:24.410 --> 00:29:31.410 pipeline. Yeah, I only see two Puerto Rico fights 00:29:31.410 --> 00:29:39.190 on her box rec. So that's pretty cool. She gets 00:29:39.190 --> 00:29:43.529 to fight at home. Or whatever. Childhood home. 00:29:44.109 --> 00:29:50.940 Fought in Sweden? That's fucking random. Frida 00:29:50.940 --> 00:29:55.460 Wahlberg used to be a big name. Was she? Yeah. 00:29:55.779 --> 00:30:03.160 That's not super random. Once she got the belts, 00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:06.140 Frida mostly fought at home. She didn't leave 00:30:06.140 --> 00:30:13.299 Scandinavia. I don't think. A lot of New York 00:30:13.299 --> 00:30:17.589 fights. Yeah. And a lot of Dominican fights. 00:30:17.970 --> 00:30:21.190 It's actually pretty surprising that she has 00:30:21.190 --> 00:30:25.410 fought so much in Dominican Republic but not 00:30:25.410 --> 00:30:34.009 in PR. That's fucking weird to me. Birthplace 00:30:34.009 --> 00:30:39.490 and residence. I don't know. I'm just saying. 00:30:39.730 --> 00:30:43.170 She hasn't fought there very much. No, I got 00:30:43.170 --> 00:30:50.740 you. It's fucking weird. I don't know if this 00:30:50.740 --> 00:30:56.160 is weird. Andre Ward came out saying, prime versus 00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:00.559 prime, he would probably lose to Roy Jones Jr. 00:31:00.900 --> 00:31:05.500 Or his words were not that he would lose, but 00:31:05.500 --> 00:31:11.140 probably wouldn't beat him. I don't think that's 00:31:11.140 --> 00:31:15.670 weird. Anybody who says they beat Roy Jones Jr. 00:31:15.930 --> 00:31:20.849 is a bit delusional, I think. Yeah, when I saw 00:31:20.849 --> 00:31:26.170 that, I was thinking at first, like, eh. Andre 00:31:26.170 --> 00:31:29.690 Ward does have, like, the jab and grab kind of 00:31:29.690 --> 00:31:35.930 style that could upset someone as dynamic as 00:31:35.930 --> 00:31:38.230 Roy Jones. But at the same time, like, Roy Jones 00:31:38.230 --> 00:31:41.960 was a fucking machine. He was a... Fucking untouchable 00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:45.960 in his prime. Oh my god, it was disgusting. It 00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:50.039 was unbelievable. I don't think he'd be able 00:31:50.039 --> 00:31:54.279 to grab him. I don't think so either. Prime Roy 00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:59.480 Jones was... Slippery is not the right word, 00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:03.319 but nobody was fucking grabbing onto him. He 00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:08.839 was very good at avoiding the clinch. Yeah. Well, 00:32:08.980 --> 00:32:11.839 he held his hands behind his back all the time, 00:32:11.880 --> 00:32:14.799 so he didn't have to clench at all. Exactly. 00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:20.079 I just thought that was interesting for someone 00:32:20.079 --> 00:32:24.500 who has been as successful as Andre Ward, for 00:32:24.500 --> 00:32:29.940 him to say. Yeah. But I mean, it's just being 00:32:29.940 --> 00:32:33.059 honest. It's that little bit of humility. that 00:32:33.059 --> 00:32:35.039 you wouldn't expect from someone who retired 00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:40.200 undefeated, who beat a lot of good names, for 00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:43.539 them to say, I don't think I'd win that fight. 00:32:45.059 --> 00:32:50.819 But I guess it's easy to pay homage to the legends, 00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:55.259 or to pay credence to the legends, rather than 00:32:55.259 --> 00:33:02.809 hyping yourself up even more. To the point of 00:33:02.809 --> 00:33:05.630 sounding silly enough saying I would beat Roy 00:33:05.630 --> 00:33:09.890 Jones in his prime. Yeah, I don't think anybody 00:33:09.890 --> 00:33:17.869 really can say that. Well, that's it for the 00:33:17.869 --> 00:33:21.849 news stuff. Unless you have anything more for 00:33:21.849 --> 00:33:24.930 anything that we covered. No, I don't think so. 00:33:25.109 --> 00:33:27.809 All right.

I think he, I was talking to 00:34:21.909 --> 00:34:26.030 him, he has in the pipeline something on Jerron 00:34:26.030 --> 00:34:34.230 Ennis, an ode to Terrence Crawford. Those are 00:34:34.230 --> 00:34:36.070 the two that I remember off the top of my head, 00:34:36.210 --> 00:34:38.329 but he has more coming down the pipe as well. 00:34:39.150 --> 00:34:44.369 So, let me take a moment.

And there we are. 00:37:28.099 --> 00:37:31.059 I always love Josh's rants. It's my favorite 00:37:31.059 --> 00:37:35.199 part of B -Sides. We got dropped from our ramen 00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:41.320 sponsor. I heard on the last. I'm really fucking 00:37:41.320 --> 00:37:46.440 miffed about that. I'm looking for another ramen 00:37:46.440 --> 00:37:48.679 sponsor just to be like, yeah, well, fuck you. 00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:53.559 We'll get the goddamn noodles. Don't worry about 00:37:53.559 --> 00:37:59.420 that. They didn't tell you why? No. Maybe you 00:37:59.420 --> 00:38:01.599 were selling too much. They were giving too many 00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:06.769 discounts. We weren't doing that well. We were 00:38:06.769 --> 00:38:08.969 making sales, though. That's what was confusing. 00:38:09.329 --> 00:38:13.349 We were making sales. I don't know what the problem 00:38:13.349 --> 00:38:24.449 is. Too many sales. Some recaps. Josh Padley, 00:38:24.630 --> 00:38:28.630 the electrician in our hearts. Did he drop the 00:38:28.630 --> 00:38:33.199 ball here? I think he did. Though he may have 00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:39.219 gotten the nod, I don't think. Those scorecards 00:38:39.219 --> 00:38:45.300 were fucking madness. Atrocious. Like, maybe 00:38:45.300 --> 00:38:49.320 he won, but he didn't win every fucking round. 00:38:49.840 --> 00:38:55.420 Steve Gray, he's often, oftentimes he's a scoring 00:38:55.420 --> 00:39:02.190 referee, but he scored it 99 to 92. That's fucked. 00:39:02.269 --> 00:39:06.510 That is unbelievable. And the other two judges, 00:39:06.710 --> 00:39:12.489 97 -93. I think that's wide, but you could convince 00:39:12.489 --> 00:39:15.730 me, probably. You could convince me that there 00:39:15.730 --> 00:39:20.309 were some really close rounds and Padley pulled 00:39:20.309 --> 00:39:23.949 it out. Maybe. That's what I mean. Yeah, maybe. 00:39:24.650 --> 00:39:30.570 But, just on its face, 97 -93. absolutely the 00:39:30.570 --> 00:39:35.670 fuck not yeah i don't know this also it wasn't 00:39:35.670 --> 00:39:38.929 that exciting of a fight it was just because 00:39:38.929 --> 00:39:43.530 it was josh padley and he's been the the electrician 00:39:43.530 --> 00:39:49.369 yeah what did somebody in the chat say like the 00:39:49.369 --> 00:39:51.849 only guy to get worse when he went full time 00:39:51.849 --> 00:40:00.170 i remember that yeah that's funny I don't know. 00:40:00.190 --> 00:40:02.789 I would not tell people to go find this one if 00:40:02.789 --> 00:40:06.190 they missed it. You didn't miss much. But the 00:40:06.190 --> 00:40:10.650 scorecards were wider than I would have given. 00:40:13.130 --> 00:40:15.809 Well, actually, that's a good segue. Speaking 00:40:15.809 --> 00:40:18.510 of scorecards that are wider than I would have 00:40:18.510 --> 00:40:23.110 given, David Allen drops the UD to Arslanbek 00:40:23.110 --> 00:40:34.119 Makhmudov. What? 109, 117, 110, 116, 111, 115. 00:40:35.639 --> 00:40:41.099 Because Mahmoudov got a point deduction for twice 00:40:41.099 --> 00:40:45.920 for holding. And it should have been, well, that 00:40:45.920 --> 00:40:47.739 second point should have been taken earlier, 00:40:47.940 --> 00:40:51.119 I think. Absolutely. Because he took a point 00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:56.480 and Mahmoudov didn't stop at all. Like, at all. 00:40:56.889 --> 00:40:59.789 He should have taken a point earlier. The second 00:40:59.789 --> 00:41:02.750 point would have come sooner as well. That third 00:41:02.750 --> 00:41:08.869 point might have been a DQ. Because he was bear 00:41:08.869 --> 00:41:14.070 -hugging like he had just reunited with his long 00:41:14.070 --> 00:41:17.929 -lost fucking relatives. Yeah. And he was getting 00:41:17.929 --> 00:41:23.110 in behind the head as well. I don't... He wasn't 00:41:23.110 --> 00:41:24.909 hitting him behind the head. I don't want it 00:41:24.909 --> 00:41:26.869 to sound like that's what I'm saying. But he 00:41:26.869 --> 00:41:29.090 was, like, grabbing behind his head and, like, 00:41:29.130 --> 00:41:32.590 pulling him in for a hug. Yeah. It was weird. 00:41:34.489 --> 00:41:38.989 But Dave Allen did Dave Allen things. Like, he 00:41:38.989 --> 00:41:42.809 just didn't have enough output either. That's 00:41:42.809 --> 00:41:44.949 what I was wondering as I was watching. Because, 00:41:45.030 --> 00:41:49.949 like, the commentary, they were slurping on Makhmudov 00:41:49.949 --> 00:41:53.170 pretty hard. And I was wondering. Yeah, I thought 00:41:53.170 --> 00:41:56.550 they were being unfair. Yeah. A bit. And I was 00:41:56.550 --> 00:42:00.110 wondering, like, it made me think, like, I overcorrected. 00:42:00.110 --> 00:42:02.550 And I was like, Dave Allen's not doing that bad. 00:42:02.710 --> 00:42:06.489 Like, what are you talking about? He rocked Mahmoud 00:42:06.489 --> 00:42:09.730 Ab a couple times. Right. Like, there were a 00:42:09.730 --> 00:42:12.809 couple times I actually thought the KO was coming. 00:42:13.190 --> 00:42:16.389 Yes. I believed. I believed in Dave Allen, which 00:42:16.389 --> 00:42:20.230 is the dumbest shit you could ever do. And I 00:42:20.230 --> 00:42:25.750 was so sad. British slop, but he's just such 00:42:25.750 --> 00:42:28.829 a likable guy. I don't know. I got sucked in 00:42:28.829 --> 00:42:35.329 by the personality. Yeah. It was an interesting 00:42:35.329 --> 00:42:40.869 way that Josh put it in the rant that he had 00:42:40.869 --> 00:42:45.630 on Dave Allen was that Dave Allen is like an 00:42:45.630 --> 00:42:51.019 average Joe that you can relate to. He seems 00:42:51.019 --> 00:42:58.840 like he's a bit of a scummer because he keeps 00:42:58.840 --> 00:43:06.880 piss jugs in his bedroom. He does seem to have 00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:09.440 some mental health shit that happens sometimes. 00:43:09.820 --> 00:43:13.539 But he also just seems a little bit lazy. He 00:43:13.539 --> 00:43:17.039 had a... crippling gambling addiction like he 00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:19.480 has no control over any of his money anymore 00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:21.960 he gave it all to he didn't give the money but 00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:24.380 he gave control all to his sister to stop him 00:43:24.380 --> 00:43:27.199 from gambling it away conservatorship or whatever 00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:32.800 yeah whatever like yeah his first run he gambled 00:43:32.800 --> 00:43:34.820 away all his money he was basically fighting 00:43:34.820 --> 00:43:38.619 for free and he got super depressed and had piss 00:43:38.619 --> 00:43:41.739 jokes because he's too lazy to walk to the toilet 00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:50.679 That is, like, that is some crazy work. Too lazy 00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:55.579 to walk to the toilet. Jesus. But he's in, like, 00:43:55.579 --> 00:44:00.719 an average show, and he's, like, your local school 00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:04.360 janitor. But he's just so shitty at his job. 00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:08.699 He's, like, really terrible at his job. But he's 00:44:08.699 --> 00:44:11.480 there. But you still love him. You still love 00:44:11.480 --> 00:44:14.789 him. And he's so bad at his job. You gotta cheer 00:44:14.789 --> 00:44:19.730 for him. Even though, as a janitor, he smears 00:44:19.730 --> 00:44:23.670 shit all over the walls. But only sometimes. 00:44:24.110 --> 00:44:26.989 Sometimes he cleans it really well. He cleans 00:44:26.989 --> 00:44:31.469 it up nicely, but he still smears shit all over 00:44:31.469 --> 00:44:38.070 the walls. Yeah, I don't know, man. I was legitimately 00:44:38.070 --> 00:44:44.000 sad about this one. Yeah. And, like, Makhlodov 00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:47.500 isn't good, and he seems to have a pretty suspect 00:44:47.500 --> 00:44:51.039 chin. Like, Dave Allen doesn't have world -ending 00:44:51.039 --> 00:44:55.719 power, and he was cracking them. I don't know. 00:44:55.880 --> 00:45:00.920 This was a shit Brit slop, heavyweight, bullshit 00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:05.880 clinch fest. And the guy I wanted to win lost. 00:45:06.179 --> 00:45:10.070 This is not a good fight. Bad day. Bad day all 00:45:10.070 --> 00:45:12.510 around. I woke up fucking early for this, just 00:45:12.510 --> 00:45:18.769 to be sad. Didn't wake up from that at everyone? 00:45:20.769 --> 00:45:24.469 I was awake before that. I legitimately set a 00:45:24.469 --> 00:45:28.610 4 a .m. alarm so I could watch Dave Allen. You 00:45:28.610 --> 00:45:32.469 should be ashamed. I am ashamed. That's possibly 00:45:32.469 --> 00:45:37.210 worse than having piss jokes. Waking up at 4? 00:45:37.980 --> 00:45:40.340 In the morning. To watch Dave Allen. To watch 00:45:40.340 --> 00:45:44.860 Dave Allen. Specifically. Why, of all the fights 00:45:44.860 --> 00:45:47.239 that you would wake up at four, why this one? 00:45:49.300 --> 00:45:51.880 I wake up at four for a lot of fights living 00:45:51.880 --> 00:45:54.599 in Japan. But why this one? Because it's Dave 00:45:54.599 --> 00:46:02.659 Allen. You gotta cheer for the guy. I feel bad 00:46:02.659 --> 00:46:06.179 for him. For the school janitor who happens to 00:46:06.179 --> 00:46:11.699 box. Yeah, like, I don't know. I wanted him to 00:46:11.699 --> 00:46:17.639 not blow it this time. He almost didn't. Several 00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:23.440 times. He almost didn't. That is a summary of 00:46:23.440 --> 00:46:26.980 Dave Allen's whole fucking career. He almost 00:46:26.980 --> 00:46:31.119 didn't blow it this time. Because he's had like 00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:35.829 three runs. he keeps fucking getting himself 00:46:35.829 --> 00:46:40.909 into these positions yeah and then just fucks 00:46:40.909 --> 00:46:44.969 it up i really i really thought this time i thought 00:46:44.969 --> 00:46:49.170 this time he was gonna i believe in dave allen 00:46:49.170 --> 00:46:52.110 as well because arsalan beck makhmudov is hot 00:46:52.110 --> 00:47:02.909 fucking garbage yeah anyways Yeah, speaking of 00:47:02.909 --> 00:47:09.489 not hot garbage, the Duran Ennis card. Quickly, 00:47:09.889 --> 00:47:15.650 Guido Vianello stops Alexi Barillet in the fifth, 00:47:15.789 --> 00:47:21.489 calls out AJ right afterwards. Oh, so did Makhmudov. 00:47:21.829 --> 00:47:25.769 Both of them, they called out AJ. Makhmudov had 00:47:25.769 --> 00:47:28.309 been saying before that if he won, he gets AJ. 00:47:28.530 --> 00:47:33.820 I think Eddie's been... spreading lies. I can't 00:47:33.820 --> 00:47:37.059 see AJ fighting Makhmadov. He does need a soft 00:47:37.059 --> 00:47:41.360 comeback. That would be a soft touch. Knock him 00:47:41.360 --> 00:47:49.539 out like he did in Ghanu. Speaking of knocking 00:47:49.539 --> 00:47:54.079 out like in Ghanu, Jaron Ennis ends Uesma Lima 00:47:54.079 --> 00:47:58.639 in the fucking first. In the first minute and 00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:07.449 a half. Yeah, besides I said, I need to eat crow, 00:48:07.650 --> 00:48:11.090 and I need to do it here as well, just because 00:48:11.090 --> 00:48:16.710 I believed Uesma Lima could provide some semblance 00:48:16.710 --> 00:48:22.030 of a test. I believed it. I expected it to go 00:48:22.030 --> 00:48:24.929 a few rounds. Like, I thought Boots was going 00:48:24.929 --> 00:48:27.110 to win, but I didn't think he'd blow him out 00:48:27.110 --> 00:48:35.380 like that. Not like that. That was crazy. Yeah. 00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:39.280 I don't even know what to say, because there's 00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:42.119 not much to say. Like, go to YouTube and watch 00:48:42.119 --> 00:48:44.360 the whole fight. It's a minute and a half long. 00:48:45.000 --> 00:48:52.739 He beats his ass. Yeah. It was difficult. It 00:48:52.739 --> 00:48:57.760 was... I was trying to defend Boots fighting 00:48:57.760 --> 00:49:04.409 Lima as Lima being not that bad. But Boots needs 00:49:04.409 --> 00:49:08.809 to start fighting better people. I can't defend 00:49:08.809 --> 00:49:14.170 it anymore. The immediate call out was Virgil 00:49:14.170 --> 00:49:17.829 Ortiz. Do you think that actually happens though? 00:49:19.030 --> 00:49:25.610 It's possible. I think all of the political logistical 00:49:25.610 --> 00:49:29.059 stuff is out of the way. It's just a matter of 00:49:29.059 --> 00:49:31.239 whether or not the promoters want to put their 00:49:31.239 --> 00:49:34.880 guy on the line, which Eddie Hearn seems ready. 00:49:35.360 --> 00:49:42.079 Ennis is ready to do it. Because Virgil fights 00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:45.079 soon, right? Like in a couple weeks? In a couple 00:49:45.079 --> 00:49:51.039 weeks, he fights Erickson Lubin. Which might... 00:49:51.239 --> 00:49:54.760 Well, I said it with Lima and was fucking wrong 00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:57.219 as hell, but Lubin should be a bit of a test. 00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:02.619 Like, Lubin's not terrible. Lubin has experience, 00:50:02.760 --> 00:50:07.880 so he can make it grimy if he wanted to. Like, 00:50:07.900 --> 00:50:12.619 who's Lubin lost to? He lost to Fundora, which 00:50:12.619 --> 00:50:16.599 is a respectable, and Charlo. He's only lost 00:50:16.599 --> 00:50:21.829 to the really bad. That was a while ago, though. 00:50:22.090 --> 00:50:27.769 And he hasn't fought anybody. He robbed Jesus 00:50:27.769 --> 00:50:37.389 Ramos. So, I'm not going to let that go. That 00:50:37.389 --> 00:50:41.550 even was a couple years ago, though. Yes. He 00:50:41.550 --> 00:50:44.969 hasn't been super active. Well, I guess he'll 00:50:44.969 --> 00:50:51.219 have two fights this year. Active -ish. No fights 00:50:51.219 --> 00:50:59.179 last year, though. Shaking my head. I don't know. 00:50:59.239 --> 00:51:04.900 I would like to see Virgil versus Boots. Who 00:51:04.900 --> 00:51:09.179 wouldn't? I can't see what other fight there 00:51:09.179 --> 00:51:13.019 is to make at 154. That is the number one versus 00:51:13.019 --> 00:51:19.400 number two. Who is at 154? The champs are... 00:51:20.160 --> 00:51:26.679 Murtazaliev has the IBF. Abbas Baru has the WBA. 00:51:26.840 --> 00:51:31.719 Oh, right. The German guy. Yeah. WBC is Fundora. 00:51:32.179 --> 00:51:37.699 And WBO is Xander Zayas. Either of those guys 00:51:37.699 --> 00:51:47.099 beat Xander Zayas. I think. Boots or Tees. Murtazaliev 00:51:47.099 --> 00:51:51.250 would be... I don't remember even watching Beru. 00:51:51.329 --> 00:51:55.309 I have no idea who this man is. It's not a whole 00:51:55.309 --> 00:51:58.230 lot to remember. Somebody said he looks like 00:51:58.230 --> 00:52:00.309 Terrence Crawford, and they're right. Like, their 00:52:00.309 --> 00:52:04.170 eyes are the same. And now I can't unsee it. 00:52:06.570 --> 00:52:12.309 But, like, Myrta is a tough fight for anyone, 00:52:12.530 --> 00:52:20.699 I think. And Fundora's a tough fight for anyone. 00:52:21.800 --> 00:52:25.159 Yeah, that's what I was saying. In the immediate 00:52:25.159 --> 00:52:32.699 aftermath, it was... Just his frame is a challenge 00:52:32.699 --> 00:52:37.320 for even someone as talented as Jaron Ennis. 00:52:38.119 --> 00:52:41.840 Well, and Fundora is still improving. Like, he's 00:52:41.840 --> 00:52:44.059 actually showing improvement between fights. 00:52:45.619 --> 00:52:48.599 Which... Once you get to the world level, not 00:52:48.599 --> 00:52:53.559 everybody does. You know what I mean? Yeah, I 00:52:53.559 --> 00:52:58.559 got you. But, I don't know. Unified Interim is 00:52:58.559 --> 00:53:04.820 kind of funny, so. Unified Interim? What? Boots 00:53:04.820 --> 00:53:09.780 is Interim WBA and Virgil's Interim WBC. Oh, 00:53:09.780 --> 00:53:19.179 shit. Unified Interim. Undisputed interim. Yeah. 00:53:20.760 --> 00:53:27.099 I find that funny. But I would be surprised if 00:53:27.099 --> 00:53:31.619 they don't make them fight. I'd be surprised 00:53:31.619 --> 00:53:34.059 if they don't wait for one of them to get a belt. 00:53:34.199 --> 00:53:37.519 Which I assume would be Enes. Fighting Beru. 00:53:38.139 --> 00:53:47.570 Yeah. If Thurman somehow beats Fundora, Virgil 00:53:47.570 --> 00:53:51.250 would kick Thurman's ass, I think. I don't think 00:53:51.250 --> 00:53:55.869 that would be very pretty. It would be a colossal 00:53:55.869 --> 00:54:00.489 beatdown. Might be an injury off on the way to 00:54:00.489 --> 00:54:05.230 the fight, too. Oh, shit. I still can't believe 00:54:05.230 --> 00:54:07.989 it's Fundora that caused that delay and not Thurman. 00:54:08.050 --> 00:54:15.110 That's crazy. But, yeah, I don't know. Boots 00:54:15.110 --> 00:54:18.530 fucking steamrolled Lima. Boots needs to fight 00:54:18.530 --> 00:54:22.949 somebody good. Like, somebody I don't need to 00:54:22.949 --> 00:54:30.590 defend. That being said, if he went for a belt 00:54:30.590 --> 00:54:33.710 against Beru, I mean, that makes sense too. Yeah, 00:54:33.710 --> 00:54:43.400 it's the logical step. Yeah. Anything more for 00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:49.079 Ennis? I don't think so. And last thing on the 00:54:49.079 --> 00:54:54.039 docket, coming up this week, we have a Queensberry 00:54:54.039 --> 00:54:58.260 card at the O2 Arena in London. Whole bunch of 00:54:58.260 --> 00:55:01.659 shit on here that I do not care about, even a 00:55:01.659 --> 00:55:07.760 little bit. Where's Lynn? Because somebody needs 00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:11.210 to put this shit into context for me. Jimmy Dean 00:55:11.210 --> 00:55:15.869 is a fuck of a name. Yep. All one word. Jimmy 00:55:15.869 --> 00:55:19.730 Dean. All one word, though. It's not Jimmy Dean. 00:55:19.929 --> 00:55:23.750 It's not James Dean Wood. It's Jimmy Dean. Jimmy 00:55:23.750 --> 00:55:27.429 Dean. That's such an American name. How is he 00:55:27.429 --> 00:55:35.090 from Kent? Like, that sounds straight out of 00:55:35.090 --> 00:55:42.750 Alabama. It does. My boy, Jimmy Dean Wood. Okay. 00:55:42.750 --> 00:55:46.190 Oh, is your name James? No, it's Jimmy Dean. 00:55:46.690 --> 00:55:52.369 Yeah, so James Dean. No, Jimmy Dean. Jimmy Dean. 00:55:52.429 --> 00:55:58.510 I sell sausages. Yeah, I don't recognize any 00:55:58.510 --> 00:56:00.670 of these. Danny Quartermain? I think I've heard 00:56:00.670 --> 00:56:05.329 that name. I have not. I might be confusing him 00:56:05.329 --> 00:56:12.849 with somebody then. Juergen Alden? Doug? Oldadai? 00:56:14.230 --> 00:56:18.730 Is it an I? No, it's a J, but it's from a place 00:56:18.730 --> 00:56:24.289 where the J's are Y's. I see. Where's he from? 00:56:26.409 --> 00:56:31.429 Albania. Anyways. Headlining this card, Joseph 00:56:31.429 --> 00:56:35.190 Parker versus Fabio Wardley. This one might be 00:56:35.190 --> 00:56:38.900 fun. I'm surprised Joseph Parker took this fight. 00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:44.920 He has an interim title. He's in the running 00:56:44.920 --> 00:56:51.860 for an Usyk fight, and he chose instead to do 00:56:51.860 --> 00:56:57.320 this against a guy who can absolutely be outboxed, 00:56:57.320 --> 00:57:02.760 but has proven time and again, you can be outboxing 00:57:02.760 --> 00:57:09.880 him 10 -0. but he will spark your ass out in 00:57:09.880 --> 00:57:14.860 the 11th. It's a pretty dangerous fight. I was 00:57:14.860 --> 00:57:20.420 also a little surprised. I mean, Parker's definitely 00:57:20.420 --> 00:57:26.099 the better boxer. Of course. And he has a decent 00:57:26.099 --> 00:57:29.760 chin, but he's been knocked out before. It's 00:57:29.760 --> 00:57:35.179 by Joe Joyce, I believe. Yeah. Joe Joyce hits... 00:57:35.420 --> 00:57:38.400 harder than people give him credit for i think 00:57:38.400 --> 00:57:44.079 harder than fabio wardley no i just mean like 00:57:44.079 --> 00:57:49.619 i i think parker has a decent chin but it can 00:57:49.619 --> 00:57:52.219 be cracked and wardley has the power to crack 00:57:52.219 --> 00:57:58.280 it okay he's just gotta hit him like and this 00:57:58.280 --> 00:58:00.420 might be a bit of a stinker because parker's 00:58:00.420 --> 00:58:03.099 gonna have to fight careful Right, he's going 00:58:03.099 --> 00:58:05.320 to have to outbox, and it's not going to look 00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:13.300 fun. Yeah. But, I mean, I like Joseph Parker. 00:58:15.679 --> 00:58:18.000 Again, more for his personality than anything 00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:22.619 else. But, I don't know. It is a fight of all 00:58:22.619 --> 00:58:26.599 time. I will watch it. Yeah. The crowd will probably 00:58:26.599 --> 00:58:29.139 be pretty cool. The O2 arena is always loud. 00:58:31.340 --> 00:58:33.360 Yeah, I'm sure Fabio Wardley is going to pull 00:58:33.360 --> 00:58:39.800 the people out. And Joseph Parker. I don't know 00:58:39.800 --> 00:58:42.719 if he lives in the UK, but I know he trains there 00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:48.900 a lot. Yeah, I think he still lives in New Zealand. 00:58:49.099 --> 00:58:54.199 Or his family does. I don't know. I'll probably 00:58:54.199 --> 00:58:56.480 tune in, but I don't have high hopes for this 00:58:56.480 --> 00:59:00.400 being super fun. Yeah. I don't either. And it's 00:59:00.400 --> 00:59:03.420 totally understandable from Joseph Parker's perspective. 00:59:04.460 --> 00:59:06.800 You're not going to sit there and trade with 00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:10.380 Fabio Wardley, who does have that one -touch 00:59:10.380 --> 00:59:14.739 power. Yeah. I mean, I guess if you like heavyweights 00:59:14.739 --> 00:59:16.940 because they're not my thing, it'll be exciting 00:59:16.940 --> 00:59:18.760 because you never know if Wardley's going to 00:59:18.760 --> 00:59:21.400 land that or not. Like, you'll be sitting waiting 00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:28.480 for it. I will be sitting there waiting for it. 00:59:29.739 --> 00:59:33.679 Not my thing. I don't want to wait for action. 00:59:35.000 --> 00:59:37.480 I don't care if people get knocked out. I just 00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:42.079 want shit happening. 5 ,000 punches in the first 00:59:42.079 --> 00:59:46.619 round. Yeah. As Damel would say, I like the shiny 00:59:46.619 --> 00:59:52.000 keys jingling in front of me. That's the type 00:59:52.000 --> 01:00:02.219 of boxing fan I am. Well, that's it. Anything 01:00:02.219 --> 01:00:09.199 more for Parker or Wardley? No. Alright. What 01:00:09.199 --> 01:00:13.340 the fuck? Mariners just got five runs in the 01:00:13.340 --> 01:00:20.639 ninth. Or the eighth. Grand slam? I don't... 01:00:20.639 --> 01:00:23.099 Well, that's only four, so they got at least... 01:00:23.099 --> 01:00:26.849 They got more than a grand slam. Alright, let 01:00:26.849 --> 01:00:31.070 me do this. Pop quiz, hotshot. What's tiny, fuzzy, 01:00:31.210 --> 01:00:33.710 and responsible for a large portion of the food 01:00:33.710 --> 01:00:36.389 we eat? If you guessed bees, well, you nailed 01:00:36.389 --> 01:00:39.510 it. Seriously, one out of every three bites on 01:00:39.510 --> 01:00:42.250 your plate depends on bees. So there's a bit 01:00:42.250 --> 01:00:44.750 of bad news here. These little heroes of our 01:00:44.750 --> 01:00:47.869 gardens and dinners are struggling. Between habitat 01:00:47.869 --> 01:00:51.869 loss, climate change, and pesticides, it's a 01:00:51.869 --> 01:00:54.429 fucking bummer. Without them, our world would 01:00:54.429 --> 01:00:56.570 look a lot different and it would be a lot less 01:00:56.570 --> 01:00:59.489 delicious. But there is good news.

Do 01:02:52.340 --> 01:02:56.199 I have parting words? Yes. So, if you ever get 01:02:56.199 --> 01:02:59.800 a chance to buy tickets for 1FC, just fucking 01:02:59.800 --> 01:03:04.400 do it. I got an email. I pre -ordered my ticket 01:03:04.400 --> 01:03:07.980 really early for the November one in Tokyo. I 01:03:07.980 --> 01:03:10.320 got an email saying they moved up the start time 01:03:10.320 --> 01:03:14.000 by four hours and the end time has not changed. 01:03:14.340 --> 01:03:21.630 What? It is now... 13 hours. No, no. I sent you 01:03:21.630 --> 01:03:27.429 this after that. But the arena is open for seating 01:03:27.429 --> 01:03:32.610 for 13 hours. Doors open at 10... Not 13 hours. 01:03:33.630 --> 01:03:40.110 10 hours. Doors open at 10am. And usually the 01:03:40.110 --> 01:03:43.170 shit closes at 10pm. Like, I'm usually out of 01:03:43.170 --> 01:03:47.900 the arena by 10pm. So that's nine hours of actual 01:03:47.900 --> 01:03:52.659 fighting. Because fights start at 11. It's crazy. 01:03:52.860 --> 01:03:56.119 I'm gonna have to pack, like, fucking lunch. 01:03:56.619 --> 01:03:59.780 Because the last time when I went to Ryzen, they 01:03:59.780 --> 01:04:03.679 ran out of food. By the time I got through the 01:04:03.679 --> 01:04:06.639 long -ass fucking line to buy food, they're like, 01:04:06.739 --> 01:04:08.840 sorry, we're sold out of food. It's just beer 01:04:08.840 --> 01:04:13.539 now. Which is... theoretically great, but if 01:04:13.539 --> 01:04:16.840 I have to leave my house at 9am to get there 01:04:16.840 --> 01:04:19.659 before the fights start, I gotta eat something 01:04:19.659 --> 01:04:22.539 during the day. Like, I can't just drink for 01:04:22.539 --> 01:04:29.300 12 hours and not cause problems. Not cause problems. 01:04:29.320 --> 01:04:33.219 That's a good caveat. I could drink for 12 hours, 01:04:33.340 --> 01:04:37.420 but it would cause problems. But I'm super excited 01:04:37.420 --> 01:04:40.619 about that, and that email made me more excited. 01:04:41.159 --> 01:04:46.000 Fucking 12 hours of fights, Leo. That is a lot. 01:04:46.679 --> 01:04:54.619 The closest to me is Denver. And that's like 01:04:54.619 --> 01:05:00.880 a 10 -hour drive. Or I'd have to fly. I'm just 01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:02.980 saying, like, it might be worth it. If I could, 01:05:03.780 --> 01:05:07.000 you know, I might. Depending on the card, depending 01:05:07.000 --> 01:05:10.710 on the event, who's on it, I might go. Well, 01:05:10.869 --> 01:05:15.369 so the headline for this one is Super Bon, which 01:05:15.369 --> 01:05:19.030 is exciting as fuck. Or at least to me it's exciting 01:05:19.030 --> 01:05:24.409 as fuck. And Rod Tang's on it too. I've always 01:05:24.409 --> 01:05:27.469 wanted to see Rod Tang. Super Lek is on it. He's 01:05:27.469 --> 01:05:31.250 fighting kickboxing, not Muay Thai, but he should 01:05:31.250 --> 01:05:37.369 still be a fun watch. Super Lek's on it too? 01:05:37.610 --> 01:05:43.750 Yep.

Yeah, I'm just saying. That's a lot of 01:06:16.489 --> 01:06:21.869 fights. That's a lot of stuff. And, like, I don't 01:06:21.869 --> 01:06:25.130 even follow one, really. And I recognize a bunch 01:06:25.130 --> 01:06:30.670 of these names. I'm super excited for it. You're 01:06:30.670 --> 01:06:33.329 following one now. Super like's way down.
