How's it going 00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:31.300 bud? Oh, guys. Glad you're back after a long 00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:35.340 hiatus. Yeah. You have good holidays? Good Christmas? 00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:37.640 Oh, yeah. It was fantastic. I went all the way 00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:40.159 up to Leavenworth. Beautiful town. Beautiful, 00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:41.899 beautiful town. I highly recommend it. Christmas 00:00:41.899 --> 00:00:45.359 town. Leavenworth? I went to Stoke Billing. Had 00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:49.259 some schnitzel. Had some bratwurst. Pretty fire. 00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:52.420 Oh, it sounds like you went to a German type 00:00:52.420 --> 00:00:56.100 of festival. Yeah, it was a Bavarian town. Oh, 00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.219 no shit. That's cool. Yeah, it was really cool. 00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:00.780 They had the McDonald's there and the Starbucks. 00:01:02.340 --> 00:01:06.159 The insides and the way it was all styled looked 00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:08.120 dramatic, you know? Yeah. It was really damn 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.680 cool. That sounds pretty cool. Yeah, you should 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:16.180 go one day. I just spent it with my family. I 00:01:16.180 --> 00:01:20.659 didn't do much. I just hung out. You had a good 00:01:20.659 --> 00:01:22.200 time, though, right? Yeah, of course. Always 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:26.980 good to see my nephew and my niece. I'll see 00:01:26.980 --> 00:01:28.620 how everyone's doing. It's always cool to catch 00:01:28.620 --> 00:01:31.079 up. For sure, for sure. You had good food too. 00:01:31.180 --> 00:01:36.560 Yeah, definitely. What was the meals? We had, 00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:40.120 rather than doing a turkey, we did roast chickens 00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:46.400 and mashed potatoes. My sister thought they turned 00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:50.620 out poorly, but I thought they were good. And 00:01:50.620 --> 00:01:54.959 just some vegetable sides as well. Fire. Fire. 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.840 Roast chicken, that sounds good. Yeah, it was 00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.879 tasty. Alright, fire. I'm glad you had a good 00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:05.159 time. Yeah, man. Well, we're fucking meeting 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:10.139 today as we record this the 30th. Let's get into 00:02:10.139 --> 00:02:12.080 a little bit of news. First things first, fucking 00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.460 Anthony Joshua involved in a car crash. Holy 00:02:15.460 --> 00:02:20.280 shit. What do you know about this? What happened? 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:24.550 He was in Nigeria, was it? Yeah, he was in Nigeria, 00:02:24.770 --> 00:02:27.310 and what happened was they were on the freeway, 00:02:27.370 --> 00:02:30.949 and they ended up trying to overtake somebody. 00:02:31.650 --> 00:02:34.229 And what ended up happening was, I guess, a tire 00:02:34.229 --> 00:02:36.689 blew out, and then they ended up hitting a parked 00:02:36.689 --> 00:02:42.389 car, and the two people in the front died. And 00:02:42.389 --> 00:02:44.990 Anthony Joshua miraculous came out with minor 00:02:44.990 --> 00:02:48.370 injuries, physical injuries. Mentally, in my 00:02:48.370 --> 00:02:50.750 opinion, he's fucked. I don't see him coming 00:02:50.750 --> 00:02:53.199 back. I think he's going to have survivor's guilt. 00:02:53.379 --> 00:02:56.900 If he comes back, that'll be crazy as hell. But 00:02:56.900 --> 00:03:00.639 if you look at the videos with the ones that 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.539 I sent you, you can see the dead bodies. It is 00:03:04.539 --> 00:03:13.020 hard to watch. Damn. Yeah, I'm just learning 00:03:13.020 --> 00:03:15.819 about it. I haven't seen that much. Damn, that's 00:03:15.819 --> 00:03:19.909 fucking crazy. Well, yeah, I hope he gets to 00:03:19.909 --> 00:03:23.949 talk to somebody about... Survivor's guilt's 00:03:23.949 --> 00:03:28.289 a bitch. Oh, yeah, 100%. I mean, that's why I'm 00:03:28.289 --> 00:03:29.889 thinking that I don't even think he's going to 00:03:29.889 --> 00:03:32.330 come back to boxing because of that. Because 00:03:32.330 --> 00:03:34.710 these are guys he's known for his whole career. 00:03:35.469 --> 00:03:37.770 Shit. He's coaching, he's a trainer. Not a trainer, 00:03:37.849 --> 00:03:42.610 but he's coaching. I think his... His health... 00:03:42.610 --> 00:03:44.750 What do they call it? Strength and conditioning? 00:03:45.569 --> 00:03:54.020 Yeah. Those are the two guys. Rest in peace to 00:03:54.020 --> 00:03:56.460 those guys. I'm glad Anthony Joshua's okay, but 00:03:56.460 --> 00:04:01.379 man, it's rough. Just in time for the new year. 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:08.639 Yeah. Well, no real good way to segue out of 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:13.879 that. One of the goats retires. Terrence Crawford 00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:20.189 hangs it up. Retires 42 -0. 31 stoppages, 5 division 00:04:20.189 --> 00:04:24.490 champion, 3 weight undisputed. That's quite a 00:04:24.490 --> 00:04:27.069 fucking resume. Do you think he's going to stay 00:04:27.069 --> 00:04:32.050 retired? I do. I think Johnny Beck fucked up 00:04:32.050 --> 00:04:37.250 his plans. 100%. Because Johnny Beck was supposed 00:04:37.250 --> 00:04:42.129 to unify with Lara and then Crawford swoops in 00:04:42.129 --> 00:04:46.370 and... Either he takes out Adamas or he fights... 00:04:46.370 --> 00:04:49.889 I think he takes out Adamas for the fourth title 00:04:49.889 --> 00:04:53.310 and then fights Janubek. But that's not going 00:04:53.310 --> 00:04:57.170 to happen. No, unfortunately not. Yeah, I think 00:04:57.170 --> 00:04:59.850 he's done. Unless maybe... What I think is that 00:04:59.850 --> 00:05:02.550 if he's not done, he's going to try to get a 00:05:02.550 --> 00:05:04.529 bigger pay bump for Canelo rematch and that's 00:05:04.529 --> 00:05:07.769 it. And then they both retire. Yeah, that would 00:05:07.769 --> 00:05:09.449 be a lot of money. That could probably bring 00:05:09.449 --> 00:05:12.850 him back. Because Canelo has, what, two more 00:05:12.850 --> 00:05:16.149 fights with Riott season? I believe so. Yeah, 00:05:16.209 --> 00:05:21.170 he did Crawford and Skull. He has two more fights, 00:05:21.250 --> 00:05:23.009 which I don't know. I don't know what those are 00:05:23.009 --> 00:05:25.170 going to be. But anyways, Crawford, if he retires, 00:05:25.189 --> 00:05:27.389 he'd retire as a legend. One of the greatest 00:05:27.389 --> 00:05:31.170 of all time, in my opinion. I asked you a lot 00:05:31.170 --> 00:05:33.050 of this, so I'm curious to get your thoughts. 00:05:33.990 --> 00:05:38.689 Is his resume, are his record, his accolades, 00:05:38.949 --> 00:05:41.850 is he better than, does he? Is he above Mayweather 00:05:41.850 --> 00:05:46.089 on, like, the all -time list? I don't know. I 00:05:46.089 --> 00:05:49.970 would say in terms of skill. In terms of resume, 00:05:50.069 --> 00:05:53.709 Mayweather beats him. Because up until a couple 00:05:53.709 --> 00:05:57.029 fights ago, Crawford was under the top rank. 00:05:57.509 --> 00:05:59.209 Not top rank protection program, but they were 00:05:59.209 --> 00:06:02.529 just kind of giving him, you know. Not the best 00:06:02.529 --> 00:06:06.389 opposition, yeah. Exactly. They gave him guys 00:06:06.389 --> 00:06:10.470 that were over the hill or guys that, uh. That 00:06:10.470 --> 00:06:12.829 didn't even belong with him in the ring, you 00:06:12.829 --> 00:06:16.029 know. And then he fought Porter. And then he 00:06:16.029 --> 00:06:19.889 fought Spence. He fought Kell Brook. And then 00:06:19.889 --> 00:06:23.009 he fought Canelo. The Canelo fight itself cements 00:06:23.009 --> 00:06:25.310 his legacy. But Floyd Mayweather, he's fought, 00:06:25.449 --> 00:06:27.730 he got a whole list. He fought Castillo. He fought 00:06:27.730 --> 00:06:32.470 Corrales. He fought Caro. De La Hoya. Pacquiao. 00:06:33.430 --> 00:06:38.819 Pacquiao. Canelo. All these guys, you know. I 00:06:38.819 --> 00:06:41.439 mean, Marquez, he fought legends. The guys that 00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:47.420 are also in the history books. So I can't put 00:06:47.420 --> 00:06:50.639 Crawford above Mayweather in that regard. But 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:53.879 maybe in terms of skill, I would put it in. And 00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:59.199 accolades too. I would say that three times undisputed 00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:01.459 is pretty crazy as well. Especially in the four 00:07:01.459 --> 00:07:04.660 belt era. Definitely. That weight jump is no 00:07:04.660 --> 00:07:09.310 joke. He jumped from 135 to... to 168, that's 00:07:09.310 --> 00:07:12.009 never been done in the history of boxing. That 00:07:12.009 --> 00:07:15.769 itself is legendary. So resume -wise, yeah, Mayweather 00:07:15.769 --> 00:07:18.209 beats him, but accolades, I think Crawford might 00:07:18.209 --> 00:07:21.889 have Mayweather beat. Yeah, that's where we landed 00:07:21.889 --> 00:07:25.149 as well when we were talking about it was accolades, 00:07:25.189 --> 00:07:28.910 Crawford has it, but resume, and I think resume 00:07:28.910 --> 00:07:31.689 kind of takes it because Mayweather's resume 00:07:31.689 --> 00:07:34.029 is fucking legendary as you already lined, we 00:07:34.029 --> 00:07:38.629 already fucking laid it out. Can't really. Yeah, 00:07:38.629 --> 00:07:40.569 there's no sense in explaining that one. Yeah. 00:07:42.029 --> 00:07:46.850 But I'm curious to get Josh's take on Crawford 00:07:46.850 --> 00:07:49.129 because I think he's come around a little bit 00:07:49.129 --> 00:07:51.810 more. He kind of turned a corner on Crawford 00:07:51.810 --> 00:07:55.629 for the better. Yeah, 100%. He used to be a very 00:07:55.629 --> 00:07:57.449 big Crawford hater. Now he's just kind of indifferent, 00:07:57.670 --> 00:08:02.029 as it seems. He saw how legendary he is and, 00:08:02.069 --> 00:08:04.649 you know, got respected. Yeah, can't be denied. 00:08:05.589 --> 00:08:10.220 Exactly. Oh, you know what can't be denied? Shiraz 00:08:10.220 --> 00:08:15.600 versus Pacheco for the WBO 168 title. Oh, my 00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.680 Lord. Man, we're going to talk about Pacheco 00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:22.819 in a little bit, but I am of the mind that he's 00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:26.540 a little bit too... He's not... I think Shiraz 00:08:26.540 --> 00:08:32.220 will beat him. I really do. I agree. And we'll 00:08:32.220 --> 00:08:35.519 get into right now about why that is, but Shiraz... 00:08:36.790 --> 00:08:39.110 Everybody that's been listening to the show ever 00:08:39.110 --> 00:08:42.070 since I came in knows that I do not like Shiraz. 00:08:42.210 --> 00:08:45.309 I don't think he's that great of a fighter. And 00:08:45.309 --> 00:08:47.230 before I used to be high on Diego Pacheco, and 00:08:47.230 --> 00:08:50.610 until recently, mainly his fights this year, 00:08:50.789 --> 00:08:55.610 I can't seem to support the guy as much anymore 00:08:55.610 --> 00:09:01.909 because he's a Benavidez fighter, I'll tell you 00:09:01.909 --> 00:09:05.940 that. He moved on from the Benavidez camp. But, 00:09:06.019 --> 00:09:08.059 yeah, he moved on, but, I mean, he still has... 00:09:08.059 --> 00:09:11.480 He still fights like it, you know? Yeah. I don't... 00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:14.419 And that last fight was... I'm getting to right 00:09:14.419 --> 00:09:16.799 now, but... Either way, Shiraz is gonna beat 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:19.200 Pacheco. And I hate to say that, but it's true. 00:09:19.860 --> 00:09:21.879 I'm gonna be riding for Pacheco. Like, if we 00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:24.299 were doing roles in Discord, I would have Pacheco's, 00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:27.700 but... Me too. I'm pretty sure that Shiraz is 00:09:27.700 --> 00:09:31.840 gonna beat him. Me too. And, I mean, again... 00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:35.879 With Shiraz, he's got... Knockout power. You 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:41.799 know, in a sense. He's got length. I mean, he's 00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:45.000 got a couple attributes that I think he meets 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:46.919 Pacheco on. Because up until this point, Pacheco's 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:51.740 kind of been the big guy. But then, I mean, he's 00:09:51.740 --> 00:09:53.700 never really fought anybody his exact size, huh? 00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:56.980 No. I mean, he fought Trevor McCombie. He fought 00:09:56.980 --> 00:10:02.840 Steven Nelson. He fought Kevin Lele Sajo. In 00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:07.120 his last fight. All guys that he was how much 00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:11.419 taller than them? A few inches at least. Yeah, 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:13.000 exactly. A few inches. And he went the distance 00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.240 with all three. And then with his, was it Sulecki? 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:21.639 Was it a fight before that? That was a blown 00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:25.600 up 154 guy. Yeah, it was a blown up 154 guy and 00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:29.779 he knocked him out in what? Round 8? And Billy 00:10:29.779 --> 00:10:31.480 got him out in round 1. Or round 2, I think. 00:10:32.050 --> 00:10:34.789 Yeah, I was misremembering who got him in the 00:10:34.789 --> 00:10:44.129 first. Yeah, it was Billy. Either way. I'm going 00:10:44.129 --> 00:10:46.730 to root for him. But Jesus Christ, he's going 00:10:46.730 --> 00:10:48.129 to need God on the side for that fight against 00:10:48.129 --> 00:10:50.429 Shiraz. And I don't even like Shiraz that much. 00:10:53.110 --> 00:10:58.870 Shiraz is going to get that title. WBO hasn't 00:10:58.870 --> 00:11:01.320 ordered the fight yet, but... Joe Cordina, who 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:03.279 we'll talk about in a moment, is the mandatory 00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:07.899 for Abdullah Mason. Cordina just pitched a really 00:11:07.899 --> 00:11:13.139 good fight, and Abdullah Mason, I don't know. 00:11:13.220 --> 00:11:17.120 He's had spots where he gets tagged a lot more 00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:22.539 than he should. We're going to talk about it 00:11:22.539 --> 00:11:25.259 right now, but Joe Cordina, that fight against 00:11:25.259 --> 00:11:27.559 Gabe Flores Jr., I mean, come on. Gabe Flores 00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:29.580 Jr. is more of a local guy. He's a regional guy. 00:11:31.330 --> 00:11:33.029 I've never really been in the world of level 00:11:33.029 --> 00:11:34.629 stage, which, again, I can't disrespect the guy. 00:11:34.690 --> 00:11:39.230 He's no boxer. But, I mean, no disrespect to 00:11:39.230 --> 00:11:43.470 Gabe Flores Jr. He ain't no... He ain't cream 00:11:43.470 --> 00:11:47.230 of the crop. Right. He is what he is. He is what 00:11:47.230 --> 00:11:49.710 he is. He's an original fighter. Exactly. So, 00:11:49.769 --> 00:11:52.629 I mean, I'm glad that they're going to have him 00:11:52.629 --> 00:11:56.429 fight Abdullah. Because if they do fight, I mean, 00:11:56.450 --> 00:11:59.340 Abdullah wins easily. But... It's a good fight 00:11:59.340 --> 00:12:02.340 for Abdullah to get some experience. Yeah, former 00:12:02.340 --> 00:12:05.700 champ. Should be good. Former champ. I mean, 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:07.259 he used to have fast hands. It might give him 00:12:07.259 --> 00:12:10.200 a little bit of a test, but not a test, actually. 00:12:10.299 --> 00:12:13.580 It might give him a little bit of some experience. 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:17.899 But that's all I can say. It's just experience, 00:12:18.019 --> 00:12:19.879 honestly. I don't see Cordita beating Abdullah 00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:26.460 at all. I think I have the... If Abdullah, he 00:12:26.460 --> 00:12:30.039 can be a bit of an idiot sometimes where he doesn't 00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:33.200 fight intelligently the way he can and the way 00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:36.759 he should. And he'll go head to head with somebody 00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:41.779 and he'll get hit a lot. And Cordina, he can 00:12:41.779 --> 00:12:47.740 ice somebody if he touches them right. Maybe 00:12:47.740 --> 00:12:49.659 a couple years ago. Yeah, he did a couple years 00:12:49.659 --> 00:12:54.269 ago. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, Abdullah does 00:12:54.269 --> 00:12:55.970 mong out, but he's also young too, so maybe he's 00:12:55.970 --> 00:12:58.149 been working on that. You never know. Hopefully 00:12:58.149 --> 00:13:01.009 he has. Yeah. Hopefully he minds his P's and 00:13:01.009 --> 00:13:04.710 Q's and doesn't act the fool. He's got the gifts. 00:13:04.909 --> 00:13:09.049 He's got... Abdullah has a great jab, first of 00:13:09.049 --> 00:13:12.110 all. Great length. You know, good height. He 00:13:12.110 --> 00:13:15.690 should be able to keep away his opponents. You 00:13:15.690 --> 00:13:19.610 know? Except he wants to... He's young and he 00:13:19.610 --> 00:13:22.049 wants to be flashy. Except these guys are not 00:13:22.049 --> 00:13:24.769 top -ranked guys anymore. He's not fighting the 00:13:24.769 --> 00:13:28.049 top -ranked fighters. The fighters that top -rank, 00:13:28.169 --> 00:13:32.450 you know, all of these guys. No, he's fighting 00:13:32.450 --> 00:13:36.289 world -level opponents. I mean, as much as Jordan 00:13:36.289 --> 00:13:39.769 Codina is not, you know, what he used to be, 00:13:39.830 --> 00:13:42.610 he still was a champion at one point. You know? 00:13:42.730 --> 00:13:46.730 Yeah. Well, we'll never know. We might be surprised, 00:13:46.850 --> 00:13:49.830 but... Hopefully, Abdullah fixes the issues from 00:13:49.830 --> 00:13:58.669 his last fight and ices him out easily. The Barrios 00:13:58.669 --> 00:14:04.889 -Ryan Garcia undercard was announced. Armando 00:14:04.889 --> 00:14:08.429 Resendiz vs. Edgar Berlanga. Gary Antoine Russell 00:14:08.429 --> 00:14:12.649 vs. Andy Hiraoka. And Lester Martinez vs. TBA. 00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:16.940 This is a pretty good... This is a really solid 00:14:16.940 --> 00:14:20.700 undercard. This is a PBC card, right? It's not... 00:14:20.700 --> 00:14:24.879 Yeah. Turkey. Turkey back. I think it might be... 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:29.740 I think it has Riyadh season sponsorship. Hmm. 00:14:30.340 --> 00:14:32.980 Well, hopefully it's put on PBC. They have much 00:14:32.980 --> 00:14:37.940 better quality streaming than the Zone card, 00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:42.559 I would say. But I know Rossini's Berlanga is 00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:48.330 for the WBA. champion, right? Yes. Oh, that's... 00:14:48.330 --> 00:14:51.049 I don't get that. I don't get why they... How 00:14:51.049 --> 00:14:53.450 does that even happen where Resendiz is facing 00:14:53.450 --> 00:14:56.309 Berlanga for a belt when Berlanga lost his last 00:14:56.309 --> 00:15:00.789 fight? It baffles me. I think it's just because 00:15:00.789 --> 00:15:04.889 he has a name. That's really it. There's nobody 00:15:04.889 --> 00:15:08.450 else at 168 that's better than Berlanga that 00:15:08.450 --> 00:15:11.870 can, you know, in the WBA rankings. I know they 00:15:11.870 --> 00:15:16.440 had a... Actually, I don't know, actually. Shoot. 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.259 Mbiles would be fun. That would be a clobberfest. 00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:29.240 I mean, even though Berlanga's a free agent, 00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:30.799 but they're giving him to anybody. He's kind 00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:33.539 of a whore. Yeah, he floats. He floats around, 00:15:33.700 --> 00:15:38.980 yeah. I don't know. Lester Martinez, I hope he 00:15:38.980 --> 00:15:42.360 fights good opposition. I doubt it, though, if 00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:45.980 this is a card like this. They're going to give 00:15:45.980 --> 00:15:48.580 him like a, you know. It's not going to be the 00:15:48.580 --> 00:15:51.779 Mbili rematch that everybody wants. If that's 00:15:51.779 --> 00:15:53.379 an Mbili rematch, that is actually legitimately 00:15:53.379 --> 00:16:00.340 a great card. But, I don't know. We'll see. Gary 00:16:00.340 --> 00:16:03.019 Antoine Russell versus Andy Hierroca. That's 00:16:03.019 --> 00:16:06.179 a, it'll be a gangbuster fight too. I think, 00:16:06.179 --> 00:16:11.240 I think most of the fights on the card, besides 00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:13.879 I would say Resendiz Berlanga, are going to be 00:16:13.879 --> 00:16:15.460 better than the main. Because I feel like the 00:16:15.460 --> 00:16:20.779 main. Is either going to be. It's going to be 00:16:20.779 --> 00:16:22.820 a Barrios. It's going to be a Barrios decision. 00:16:23.700 --> 00:16:25.980 Or it looks like it's going to be a draw. If 00:16:25.980 --> 00:16:28.379 it goes to the decision. You know. I'm hoping 00:16:28.379 --> 00:16:31.080 for a draw. I hope it'll be funny. It's probably 00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:33.679 going to be a draw. But. I don't know. I got 00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:35.399 Ryan winning the fight. And we'll talk about 00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:39.320 it when it comes. It comes around. But. I seriously 00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:43.620 do not rate Barrios. Anywhere near. Cream of 00:16:43.620 --> 00:16:48.669 the crop level. No, definitely not. Even with 00:16:48.669 --> 00:16:52.129 Raleigh holding one of the titles, Barrios is 00:16:52.129 --> 00:16:55.250 still the weakest of the four champions. I understand. 00:16:55.690 --> 00:16:58.570 And you know what's funny? I was watching a video 00:16:58.570 --> 00:17:01.110 of The Greatest Child to Tell talking to Marisa 00:17:01.110 --> 00:17:05.930 Suleiman about how the hell Ryan got a shot at 00:17:05.930 --> 00:17:10.990 the WBC champion for Barrios. I mean, he lost 00:17:10.990 --> 00:17:14.680 his last fight against Raleigh. Against Devin, 00:17:14.779 --> 00:17:16.519 he, you know, had a questionable performance. 00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:19.339 You know? Right. Not questionable performance, 00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:22.400 but, you know, what happened. The antics, is 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:26.460 what I mean. So, why, I wonder why they gave 00:17:26.460 --> 00:17:28.940 him, they would give him the fight. And, Chantel 00:17:28.940 --> 00:17:31.619 asked that question to Maurice Suleiman. And, 00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:35.559 Suleiman gave, you know, gave the typical PR 00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:40.259 answer, you know, oh, Ryan, after his time healing 00:17:40.259 --> 00:17:45.759 with himself, We wanted to give him a fight. 00:17:45.940 --> 00:17:48.299 We wanted to give him a shot because everybody 00:17:48.299 --> 00:17:51.980 deserves to take a chance. All I heard was, no, 00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:53.799 we're doing this shit for the money. Yeah, that's 00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:55.960 all that I heard with that explanation. That's 00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:59.680 all it is. Did you see that interview or no? 00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:03.339 No, but with what you just told me, it's no, 00:18:03.539 --> 00:18:05.900 Ryan Garcia is the name, so you want the money. 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:10.019 Exactly. Exactly. I mean, that's the reason why 00:18:10.019 --> 00:18:11.759 they unbanned him in the first place. Right. 00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:18.799 So I just thought that was funny. Oh, speaking 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:21.779 of funny, Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather are 00:18:21.779 --> 00:18:25.799 doing an exhibition in March. Oh, really? It's 00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.799 announced? Yeah. Mike Tyson announced it, I believe. 00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:32.380 Hmm. It's interesting. Mike Tyson announced it. 00:18:32.420 --> 00:18:35.599 That's funny because the Pacquiao fight really 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:40.619 actually fell through. Did it? Oh, yeah, it did. 00:18:40.700 --> 00:18:44.640 It's not happening anymore, I guess. So if Pacquiao's 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:46.680 not fighting Rowley and Floyd's fighting Mike 00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:48.200 Tyson, I don't know who the hell Pacquiao's fighting. 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:56.380 You should just stay retired, I think. I don't 00:18:56.380 --> 00:19:00.359 understand. He should not come back. Yeah. You 00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:02.039 never know. Maybe that fight will be made still. 00:19:04.980 --> 00:19:08.839 I know the masses have been waiting to hear Troy 00:19:08.839 --> 00:19:12.980 Isley is a promotional free agent. Troy Isley. 00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:20.299 Yeah. Troy Isley. Troy Isley. That's not... Yeah, 00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:24.059 he's not ringing a bell. That's just a case in 00:19:24.059 --> 00:19:27.200 point. Troy Isley. Troy Isley's a top -ranked 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:29.900 guy, right? He was. He was top -ranked, yeah. 00:19:30.180 --> 00:19:33.660 He fought whenever he showed up for a fight, 00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:38.700 huh? Usually, yeah. I vaguely remember. Well, 00:19:38.779 --> 00:19:46.210 he gave creation. I mean... Go to Pro Box. Devin 00:19:46.210 --> 00:19:51.210 Haney versus Lewis Crocker for unification. Easy 00:19:51.210 --> 00:19:56.430 scalp for Haney, I think. Yeah. I mean, that's 00:19:56.430 --> 00:20:02.849 going to be a fight that will inevitably be on 00:20:02.849 --> 00:20:07.970 a pay -per -view card. If they want to be funny, 00:20:08.069 --> 00:20:11.460 they could put down a Riyadh season card. I don't 00:20:11.460 --> 00:20:15.279 know. That does sound like it's not going to 00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:21.539 be a good watch. It'll be another boring Devin 00:20:21.539 --> 00:20:25.880 Haney decision. Again, I don't even rate Lewis 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:29.160 Crocker high. No. He don't got power. He don't 00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:38.420 got speed. Hopefully Devin Haney wins. We'll 00:20:38.420 --> 00:20:42.529 see. And speaking of Brits, fucking Adam Azim 00:20:42.529 --> 00:20:47.529 is fighting Gustavo Lemos. If he can't do what 00:20:47.529 --> 00:20:52.509 Keyshawn couldn't do, then... Yeah. I don't know. 00:20:52.589 --> 00:20:57.049 But what if he can? You see that one going all 00:20:57.049 --> 00:21:00.150 the way? I don't see it going all the way. If 00:21:00.150 --> 00:21:03.269 Adam Azim is really what he's, you know, said 00:21:03.269 --> 00:21:06.069 to be, I don't see it going all the way. Maybe 00:21:06.069 --> 00:21:14.089 he'll end Fry in the... Maybe the six. Hmm. What 00:21:14.089 --> 00:21:15.009 about you? How do you feel about that fight? 00:21:15.069 --> 00:21:18.890 It's a fight of all time. Yeah, I want Adam Azeem 00:21:18.890 --> 00:21:21.970 to suffer because he did my man Kurt Scooby and 00:21:21.970 --> 00:21:26.829 I don't like it. But Adam Azeem is fine. I think 00:21:26.829 --> 00:21:29.549 he should be able to finish it round six to eight 00:21:29.549 --> 00:21:36.589 somewhere in that area. Oh. Well, I think we 00:21:36.589 --> 00:21:41.009 exhausted all the news there. Oh, fucking... 00:21:41.009 --> 00:21:45.369 Reviews. Holy shit. We've got a bit of a list 00:21:45.369 --> 00:21:51.069 here. First things first. Bash promotions on 00:21:51.069 --> 00:21:56.349 Prime Pay -Per -View. Norair McKalian beats Badou 00:21:56.349 --> 00:22:00.930 Jack to claim the WBC Cruiserweight title. Did 00:22:00.930 --> 00:22:07.029 you see this fight? Um... It's a cliff. Um... 00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:09.480 Pretty sure that it wasn't a good fight to watch. 00:22:09.839 --> 00:22:15.539 It was not. Pretty dull. And there was some strangeness 00:22:15.539 --> 00:22:18.720 I think at the end of the seventh round where 00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:24.720 they the corners rushed into the ring and everybody 00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:28.660 was like brawling for a little bit. And then 00:22:28.660 --> 00:22:32.819 they just continued the fight like nothing happened. 00:22:34.819 --> 00:22:37.089 Pretty odd. That was really weird. Odd shit. 00:22:37.750 --> 00:22:42.970 Odd shit. Uh, Makalian was docked a point for 00:22:42.970 --> 00:22:47.170 hitting behind the head and Badu Jack was docked 00:22:47.170 --> 00:22:50.009 a point for hitting when the referee had called 00:22:50.009 --> 00:22:57.190 a stop. Weird fight. Very. That's all I got to 00:22:57.190 --> 00:23:00.930 say about that. Uh, hopefully Makalian fights, 00:23:01.150 --> 00:23:05.759 um, Opitaya or Zerto, one of the two. Just get 00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:09.700 yourself out of the mix, please. Opetai's been 00:23:09.700 --> 00:23:13.700 fighting nobody, but, you know. McCabe kind of 00:23:13.700 --> 00:23:21.119 fits the bill. Yeah. I mean, might be. Let's 00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:25.920 see. Matchroom at the Stockton Arena on DAZN. 00:23:27.299 --> 00:23:30.640 Going from the bottom up. Some shit I don't care 00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:34.200 about. Chavon Clark had a nice stoppage. Over 00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:40.019 Anthony Holloway. It was pretty fun. Ernesto 00:23:40.019 --> 00:23:45.539 Mercado KO6 over Antonio Moran. That was a nice 00:23:45.539 --> 00:23:48.579 knockout. Good knockout. Yeah, he looked good. 00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:55.460 Great, yeah. Ooh, Sky Nicholson gets a UD to 00:23:55.460 --> 00:23:58.900 claim the interim WBC Super Bantamweight title. 00:24:00.420 --> 00:24:06.750 It certainly was a fight. It was an alright fight. 00:24:07.230 --> 00:24:11.349 I don't know. It's a Scott Nicholson fight, what 00:24:11.349 --> 00:24:14.329 do you expect? Yeah. We all know why we're here. 00:24:15.069 --> 00:24:19.410 Exactly. Joe Cordina, UD over Gabe Flores. We 00:24:19.410 --> 00:24:22.509 were talking about it earlier. Not a stellar 00:24:22.509 --> 00:24:25.609 win, but Cordina looked good for whatever it's 00:24:25.609 --> 00:24:30.950 worth. I'm curious. Is Gabe Flores the matching 00:24:30.950 --> 00:24:35.450 guy? They just picked him up off the regional. 00:24:36.930 --> 00:24:38.730 I think they picked him up because it was going 00:24:38.730 --> 00:24:43.829 to be in Stockton. Okay. That's good. Because 00:24:43.829 --> 00:24:47.690 they're trying to push him. That's a fucking 00:24:47.690 --> 00:24:50.309 mistake. Yeah, that is a big fucking mistake. 00:24:51.170 --> 00:24:54.029 A waste of money right there. I'm glad Joe Gordiano 00:24:54.029 --> 00:24:58.990 got the win. I knew he was going to win. I've 00:24:58.990 --> 00:25:01.230 heard of him. I've seen a little bit of him. 00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:06.599 Nothing to squawk at. No. I thought Joe Cordina 00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:10.099 had it... I think it was in the 8th or 9th. He 00:25:10.099 --> 00:25:14.500 had Gabe Flores looking pretty hurt. I was surprised 00:25:14.500 --> 00:25:17.299 he didn't push the envelope and go for the stoppage. 00:25:18.019 --> 00:25:26.099 Let's go as old as hell. Could be. In the main, 00:25:26.259 --> 00:25:30.500 Diego Pacheco gets the UD with some questionable 00:25:30.500 --> 00:25:37.279 scores. over Kevin Sajo. Got knocked down, what 00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:39.859 was it, like the 8th? I think the 8th, yeah, 00:25:39.859 --> 00:25:42.500 he got knocked down. It wasn't a horrible knockdown, 00:25:42.579 --> 00:25:46.880 but it was a knockdown. Yeah, it definitely showed 00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:50.319 what we were kind of alluding to earlier about 00:25:50.319 --> 00:25:54.900 Diego Pacheco and now his fight with Shiraz. 00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:58.900 If you're getting tagged like that by Kevin Sajo, 00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:03.799 I don't know, man. I mean, at the same time, 00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:05.180 I do know that Kevin Satcher, I think we were 00:26:05.180 --> 00:26:10.059 saying this before, the fight that, I mean, he 00:26:10.059 --> 00:26:12.680 looks like he got bricks for hands and he showed 00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:17.480 he's got some power. Now, is he ever going to 00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:19.400 become a world -level guy? I don't know. I don't 00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:22.680 think so. But they'll probably feed him to some 00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:25.500 of the top guys, you know, or the up -and -comers. 00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:29.309 But Jesus Christ, I don't know. I don't know 00:26:29.309 --> 00:26:32.150 what the hell is wrong with Pacheco. Benavidez 00:26:32.150 --> 00:26:37.009 has done him wrong. Yeah, it looks like he's 00:26:37.009 --> 00:26:40.089 trying to work out, trying to break old habits. 00:26:41.190 --> 00:26:45.150 And it's causing some defensive lapses. It's 00:26:45.150 --> 00:26:46.970 not working out. I'll tell you, he needs to figure 00:26:46.970 --> 00:26:50.750 out something quick. Because he's got some physical 00:26:50.750 --> 00:26:53.349 gifts. I mean, he's tall. I mean, he's got some 00:26:53.349 --> 00:26:57.250 amount of power. I think after these last couple 00:26:57.250 --> 00:26:59.410 fights, I doubt it. That he's got any world -level 00:26:59.410 --> 00:27:02.410 power. But he's got a little bit enough to hold 00:27:02.410 --> 00:27:05.690 off a fighter. But, I mean, I don't know. We'll 00:27:05.690 --> 00:27:08.589 see what happens if he even fights Shiraz. They 00:27:08.589 --> 00:27:10.730 might not even make that fight with Shiraz. They 00:27:10.730 --> 00:27:12.289 could order it, but he might not even take it. 00:27:13.930 --> 00:27:16.910 I expect Pacheco will take it. Just because it's 00:27:16.910 --> 00:27:21.029 a shot at a title. So, that's what I'm thinking. 00:27:21.529 --> 00:27:23.589 I don't know. Maybe they might think it's too 00:27:23.589 --> 00:27:26.410 early. Especially after this fight. I don't know. 00:27:27.529 --> 00:27:31.170 I mean, he's only, what, 24? 24, yeah. He's only 00:27:31.170 --> 00:27:33.750 24. I mean, he's got plenty of time. Plus, Shiraz, 00:27:33.789 --> 00:27:36.930 I mean, if he loses to Shiraz, that would really 00:27:36.930 --> 00:27:40.690 set him back. You know? He'll be put on some 00:27:40.690 --> 00:27:45.369 undercards for the rest of his time. Until the 00:27:45.369 --> 00:27:48.869 rest, near the end of his 20s, most likely. You 00:27:48.869 --> 00:27:52.849 think it'll be that bad? Yeah, I mean, I genuinely 00:27:52.849 --> 00:27:56.400 think that Shiraz will knock him out. and you'll 00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.400 stay on a BAM undercard. That's it. He'll be 00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:06.079 known in California. Might be well -known in 00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:09.700 California, but that's it. I can't rate the guy 00:28:09.700 --> 00:28:13.900 highly. He hasn't shown me a lot. And what he's 00:28:13.900 --> 00:28:15.839 showing me is that he's not going to be up there 00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:18.619 with world -level fighters. I think even someone, 00:28:18.740 --> 00:28:22.460 if Berlanga had a really good night, I think 00:28:22.460 --> 00:28:25.079 you'd beat him. And that's some crazy shit to 00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:28.859 say, maybe. But Berlanga might just beat Pacheco 00:28:28.859 --> 00:28:37.859 on his best night. Damn. I'm in Munguia. No, 00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:40.519 that's not happening. You don't think so? That's 00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:43.000 not going to happen. Caught him up, but that's 00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:45.740 not going to happen. Munguia is going down the 00:28:45.740 --> 00:28:47.299 IBF route. I don't think he's going to want to 00:28:47.299 --> 00:28:52.319 mess with Pacheco. Munguia, we're smart. He can 00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:56.519 fight Oslis. Is that a smart move? Is that a 00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.099 smart move for anyone? Well, I mean, that's a 00:28:59.099 --> 00:29:03.039 shot at the title. Versus Oslis. WBL is obviously 00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:07.400 going to favor Shiraz. But, I mean, that's an 00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:10.279 immediate shot at the title for Munguia. I mean, 00:29:10.299 --> 00:29:12.259 Munguia beats Pacheco. I mean, what's going to 00:29:12.259 --> 00:29:14.559 happen? He's going to beat an original guy. That's 00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:17.359 it. At least with Oslis, he'll have a shot at 00:29:17.359 --> 00:29:19.099 a title. You never know. He might surprise everybody. 00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:22.180 I mean, yeah, Ostley has been fighting some great 00:29:22.180 --> 00:29:25.039 competition. I've been following him for the 00:29:25.039 --> 00:29:29.519 past year, and I got to say that, I mean, he's 00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:33.880 been selling me. But at the end of the day, he's 00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:37.539 also, he hasn't fought world -level opponents 00:29:37.539 --> 00:29:40.640 either. I mean, he's the best as far as Vladimir 00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:45.519 Shishkin, and that's a pretty damn good opponent. 00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:48.259 He knocked him out. That doesn't prove, that 00:29:48.259 --> 00:29:52.980 doesn't prove a good amount. Of worth. But at 00:29:52.980 --> 00:29:56.700 the same time, it's not... It's not no champion. 00:29:57.599 --> 00:30:01.140 You know? I want to see him against a champion. 00:30:03.819 --> 00:30:07.119 You know? And Munguia, I mean, yeah, you can 00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:10.359 say what you want, but he fought Canelo. He survived. 00:30:11.460 --> 00:30:14.460 Obviously, that weapon with Brunello was not 00:30:14.460 --> 00:30:18.500 the greatest. You know? Got knocked out. But... 00:30:18.650 --> 00:30:22.829 Came back. Had PED scam. I don't know. Either 00:30:22.829 --> 00:30:24.849 way, a shot at the title is better than nothing. 00:30:25.829 --> 00:30:31.450 You know? Yeah. And it could be Munguia's last 00:30:31.450 --> 00:30:37.710 shot for a while. You never know. You think Kevin 00:30:37.710 --> 00:30:40.930 Sajo couldn't turn this into something? Because 00:30:40.930 --> 00:30:44.230 he gave a good account of himself. I feel like 00:30:44.230 --> 00:30:46.190 you could put on a reality card. That's for sure. 00:30:46.619 --> 00:30:50.599 Yeah, he can be an opponent again for someone. 00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:55.619 Oh, they'll throw his ass to Zephyr. Oh, I forgot 00:30:55.619 --> 00:30:57.680 about that. Oh, actually, we should talk about 00:30:57.680 --> 00:30:58.839 that. We should talk about Zephyr real quick. 00:30:59.839 --> 00:31:03.339 What's the word? That Ryo's going to be fighting. 00:31:05.519 --> 00:31:08.500 Ryo's going to be fighting for Zephyr. He is? 00:31:08.779 --> 00:31:11.900 Why? Yeah, out of all people, fucking Ryo. I 00:31:11.900 --> 00:31:16.740 don't know. What the fuck? That's a crazy move 00:31:16.740 --> 00:31:20.619 right there. I'm disappointed. Very, very disappointed. 00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:24.319 Because out of all, I mean, first of all, first 00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:27.019 of all, if Ryo's the best guy you're able to 00:31:27.019 --> 00:31:29.920 get, that is not a good outlook for your company 00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:31.660 right now. It's going to take years for them 00:31:31.660 --> 00:31:35.940 to build their fires up. I mean, obviously they 00:31:35.940 --> 00:31:39.400 said that, you know, well, obviously I heard 00:31:39.400 --> 00:31:42.359 actually that they're trying to put Bam with 00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:45.690 Zephyr. But I also saw that Robert is denying 00:31:45.690 --> 00:31:48.390 those claims. But I don't know. The fact that 00:31:48.390 --> 00:31:52.390 Ryo is going to fight for Zephyr, I don't know. 00:31:52.410 --> 00:31:55.990 I feel like Robert should know that that's kind 00:31:55.990 --> 00:31:59.990 of a dumb idea. I don't know. Is Ryo even with 00:31:59.990 --> 00:32:05.329 Robert still? I don't know. Ryo disappeared since 00:32:05.329 --> 00:32:14.500 that GAR fight. Yeah. Rivals with Zofo? How disappointing. 00:32:15.700 --> 00:32:20.019 It's very disappointing. That's sad. I mean, 00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:22.660 obviously, I mean, if you can be the best guy 00:32:22.660 --> 00:32:28.500 in that, in that, you know, whatever it is, that 00:32:28.500 --> 00:32:32.480 organization can go for it. You know, but at 00:32:32.480 --> 00:32:34.579 the end of the day, you try your best over here, 00:32:34.579 --> 00:32:38.960 if it doesn't work out, I guess you'll be the 00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:41.769 lead man in another organization. Big fish in 00:32:41.769 --> 00:32:44.190 a little pond? Exactly. Big fish in a little 00:32:44.190 --> 00:32:45.690 pond. That's like, and we'll get to it soon, 00:32:45.750 --> 00:32:47.269 but that's like annotating saying he was a fucking 00:32:47.269 --> 00:32:51.009 kickboxing champion. But mind you, fucking bullshit. 00:32:55.390 --> 00:32:58.230 Let's keep it rolling here. Wednesday, December 00:32:58.230 --> 00:33:02.670 17th, No Limit Boxing Promotions at the TikTok 00:33:02.670 --> 00:33:07.839 Entertainment Center in Sydney, Australia. Two 00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:10.599 fights I was tracking. Sam Goodman gets the UD 00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:18.900 over Tyler Blizzard. And Tim Zhu has a lackluster 00:33:18.900 --> 00:33:22.460 performance against Anthony Velasquez. To say 00:33:22.460 --> 00:33:26.799 the least. Yeah. For rebranding himself as the 00:33:26.799 --> 00:33:30.359 Phoenix, getting a new trainer, changing things 00:33:30.359 --> 00:33:37.619 up, he didn't look all that great. I can hope 00:33:37.619 --> 00:33:40.400 that it's just because it's his first fight back 00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:45.859 since his troubles. I can hope he can get better 00:33:45.859 --> 00:33:49.759 from here, but that was not a very good performance. 00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:58.619 I mean, he's going to be 31? I think. Early 30s. 00:33:58.619 --> 00:34:02.980 He's kind of getting there in age soon. Not old 00:34:02.980 --> 00:34:05.240 yet. He's going to be leaving his prime soon. 00:34:09.019 --> 00:34:14.199 Yeah, and still hunting a title. He's had a title, 00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:19.739 hasn't he? No, he had the B. I think the PC. 00:34:24.659 --> 00:34:33.059 Yes. No. I don't think he's had one. He had the 00:34:33.059 --> 00:34:39.320 interim. Oh, no. He got the full title. Brian 00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:48.440 Mendoza. That's right. Yeah. All right. Let's 00:34:48.440 --> 00:35:02.699 see. Taken at the Kokugikan in Tokyo. There were... 00:35:02.699 --> 00:35:05.300 There was a good stoppage. Anthony Olaskwaga 00:35:05.300 --> 00:35:11.369 got a stoppage in four. Over Taku Kuwahara. And 00:35:11.369 --> 00:35:16.690 Old Man Donair still has it. Kind of. He loses 00:35:16.690 --> 00:35:19.610 a split decision. Seiya Tsutsumi gets the WBA 00:35:19.610 --> 00:35:24.250 bantamweight title. I still got it. Yep. I still 00:35:24.250 --> 00:35:29.610 got it. Yeah, don't throw him out yet. Thursday, 00:35:30.130 --> 00:35:35.710 December 18th. Pro Box. In Fort Lauderdale, Florida. 00:35:38.190 --> 00:35:42.030 Joe Sean James. Majority of decision over Yohanler 00:35:42.030 --> 00:35:44.570 Martinez. That's the first time I've ever seen 00:35:44.570 --> 00:35:48.989 a double knockdown live. I thought that was pretty 00:35:48.989 --> 00:35:53.250 cool. I didn't see this card, but I heard about 00:35:53.250 --> 00:35:58.909 that. It sucks. Marlon Harrington gets a KO1 00:35:58.909 --> 00:36:03.449 over Brian Polacco. Other stuff, other stuff. 00:36:03.809 --> 00:36:06.909 Ramon Cardenas, big stoppage in five over Eric 00:36:06.909 --> 00:36:13.030 Robles. Ramon looked good. Hey, call me an Uber 00:36:13.030 --> 00:36:17.170 driver now. Yeah, no shit. You don't got to be 00:36:17.170 --> 00:36:22.789 an Uber driver no more. Friday, December 19th. 00:36:23.690 --> 00:36:27.750 MVP on Netflix. You know what this one is. The 00:36:27.750 --> 00:36:32.650 Kaseya Center in Miami. Just getting it out of 00:36:32.650 --> 00:36:35.630 the way, Anderson Silva stops Tyron Woodley. 00:36:35.730 --> 00:36:39.469 Corner pulls the plug after the second, or in 00:36:39.469 --> 00:36:45.110 the second. Pretty funny fight. Yeah, the size 00:36:45.110 --> 00:36:49.090 disparity was comical. Two old guys going at 00:36:49.090 --> 00:36:55.730 it. Avious Griffin gets a big stoppage, big knockout 00:36:55.730 --> 00:37:04.860 in one. Caroline Dubois, UD, to defend her WBC 00:37:04.860 --> 00:37:10.099 lightweight title. So that's fun. Jocasta Valle, 00:37:10.300 --> 00:37:17.659 majority decision, sneaks it by. Undisputed bantamweight 00:37:17.659 --> 00:37:22.760 champ, Sharnika Johnson, gets a UD. And three 00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:26.760 -belt super featherweight champ, Alicia Baumgartner, 00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:31.489 gets a UD. She fought 12 rounds by 3 minutes. 00:37:31.550 --> 00:37:34.449 So that was cool. Oh yeah, that was not a bad 00:37:34.449 --> 00:37:38.789 fight. I said 12 rounds by 3 minutes. I think 00:37:38.789 --> 00:37:46.650 that's one of the first. That's why the WBC title 00:37:46.650 --> 00:37:52.130 was not on the line for her. Because they refused 00:37:52.130 --> 00:37:56.550 to sanction women's fights for 3 minutes. She 00:37:56.550 --> 00:37:58.900 looked great in there. She looked great. We showed 00:37:58.900 --> 00:38:03.860 her levels, obviously. Yeah, it's just really 00:38:03.860 --> 00:38:08.239 dumb that the WBC doesn't refuses to allow three 00:38:08.239 --> 00:38:11.920 minute rounds for women. I don't get it. And 00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:13.400 I mean, at least your mom got it. She showed 00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:14.800 her. She showed that it doesn't fucking matter. 00:38:15.099 --> 00:38:18.739 Right. I mean, I think honestly that they should 00:38:18.739 --> 00:38:27.480 be pushing for longer rounds. Anthony Joshua. 00:38:28.539 --> 00:38:35.440 KO6. That was... I got to put my dad on the pod. 00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:37.280 He's not here, but I got to put my dad on the 00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:39.460 pod. Ever since that fight happened, he's been 00:38:39.460 --> 00:38:41.199 trying to tell me that that fight was rigged. 00:38:43.019 --> 00:38:46.039 How? Why? I got to tell him. I was like, Dad, 00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:50.619 you can't fake a knockout like that. You can't 00:38:50.619 --> 00:38:53.219 fake the injury. It's shown that he had a real 00:38:53.219 --> 00:38:57.420 injury. Big ball got knocked out for once in 00:38:57.420 --> 00:39:02.480 his fucking first time, huh? Yep. That shit. 00:39:02.659 --> 00:39:04.460 Oh, that was fucking great, by the way. That 00:39:04.460 --> 00:39:07.039 was like a Christmas miracle. Fucking amazing 00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:12.559 scene. But you know what? I mean, I could tell 00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:15.760 that AJ was taking it easy on him. I could tell. 00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:21.739 But I got a feeling that he was planning to take 00:39:21.739 --> 00:39:24.079 him out in round six. Because I know that he 00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:27.380 said himself that he was planning on KOing him 00:39:27.380 --> 00:39:31.800 from rounds four to six. I think that was the 00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:34.900 plan. Some bullshit, though, I'll tell you that. 00:39:35.619 --> 00:39:39.440 Why is that? Some bullshit that Jake, for half 00:39:39.440 --> 00:39:40.940 the fight, the majority of the fight was fucking 00:39:40.940 --> 00:39:43.380 horrendous. Oh, yeah, Jake Paul was fighting 00:39:43.380 --> 00:39:47.559 like a scared little something or other. I don't 00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:49.559 blame him. I mean, obviously, if he was fighting 00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:51.619 Anthony Joshua, I mean, he knew that he had to 00:39:51.619 --> 00:39:54.050 fucking run. You had to do what you had to do 00:39:54.050 --> 00:39:56.329 to survive, but at the same time, nobody wanted 00:39:56.329 --> 00:39:58.369 to watch that shit. I'm going to tell you this. 00:39:58.369 --> 00:40:01.889 If the fight ended like that and it's the fucking 00:40:01.889 --> 00:40:05.650 decision merchant bullshit, dude, that would 00:40:05.650 --> 00:40:07.590 have been horrible. It would have been bad for 00:40:07.590 --> 00:40:09.710 Joshua if he had... It would have been bad for 00:40:09.710 --> 00:40:13.869 Joshua and for the sport in general. This is 00:40:13.869 --> 00:40:18.349 the guy that's been at that world level. Anthony 00:40:18.349 --> 00:40:19.789 Joshua, who just went to the decision with Jake 00:40:19.789 --> 00:40:23.030 Paul in a horrible fight like this. Fucking horrendous. 00:40:23.110 --> 00:40:26.409 But that didn't happen, obviously. After the 00:40:26.409 --> 00:40:29.610 multiple amount of dick -sucking that Jake Paul 00:40:29.610 --> 00:40:34.869 tried to do, Anthony Josh got him out. And it 00:40:34.869 --> 00:40:41.349 was funny -ass KO. It was. Broken jaw. Broken 00:40:41.349 --> 00:40:44.489 jaw, yeah. My dad says that the biggest reason 00:40:44.489 --> 00:40:47.690 why Jake Paul wasn't really knocked out was because 00:40:47.690 --> 00:40:53.320 once AJ knocked him down on the ground, Jake 00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:57.139 Paul wasn't wobbly. I was like that. I mean, 00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:01.420 I get it, but I mean, yeah, that's the first 00:41:01.420 --> 00:41:03.059 time he's ever been down. I mean, we've seen 00:41:03.059 --> 00:41:04.380 that happen before in the past when people are 00:41:04.380 --> 00:41:08.820 like, oh shit, you know, but I mean, Jake Paul 00:41:08.820 --> 00:41:11.000 kind of just quit before he was super, super, 00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:15.460 super wobbly like that. You know, he was, I think 00:41:15.460 --> 00:41:18.539 he looked pretty hurt leading up to the stoppage. 00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:23.349 I don't, I don't think it was. I think he got 00:41:23.349 --> 00:41:26.449 carried a little bit in the opening rounds, but... 00:41:26.449 --> 00:41:32.269 When I say quit, I mean like he took a little 00:41:32.269 --> 00:41:36.110 bit longer to get him than what was needed. And 00:41:36.110 --> 00:41:37.650 I'll tell you this, though. That ref was on some 00:41:37.650 --> 00:41:39.989 bullshit. What's his name? I don't even know 00:41:39.989 --> 00:41:41.590 the referee's name. I've seen him a couple times. 00:41:42.469 --> 00:41:45.889 He was the guy that was refereeing Tim Zu versus... 00:41:45.889 --> 00:41:52.650 versus Berto Zaylo. Same guy, but... Tell you 00:41:52.650 --> 00:41:57.489 this, that was a bullshit ref jump. No point 00:41:57.489 --> 00:42:00.389 deduction for the amount of nut -hugging. Chris 00:42:00.389 --> 00:42:04.349 Young is his name. Chris Young, yeah. No point 00:42:04.349 --> 00:42:14.349 deduction at all. Come on. Yeah, that's that 00:42:14.349 --> 00:42:19.170 clown show. That's enough time for that fucking 00:42:19.170 --> 00:42:21.570 clown show. Yeah, that's how I want to give it. 00:42:23.060 --> 00:42:27.639 Last two things really quick. The WBC Grand Prix 00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:34.360 is over. The winners, heavyweight Kevin Ramirez, 00:42:34.679 --> 00:42:37.940 featherweight Brandon Mejia, super lightweight 00:42:37.940 --> 00:42:40.800 Carlos Utrilla, and middleweight Dylan Biggs. 00:42:43.679 --> 00:42:47.360 Do you think they all get a... I think they'll 00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:54.030 get a good spot in the WBC rankings. Based off 00:42:54.030 --> 00:42:57.090 of this. Do you think they get any notoriety 00:42:57.090 --> 00:43:04.929 from this? No. Unfortunately, no. Concept was 00:43:04.929 --> 00:43:06.550 a really good idea. I think it was really nice. 00:43:07.269 --> 00:43:09.150 But it just honestly didn't have a lot of... 00:43:09.150 --> 00:43:13.250 Not a lot of star power names, you know? Right. 00:43:13.289 --> 00:43:19.329 Not a lot of highlight reel KOs. That would get 00:43:19.329 --> 00:43:21.849 the casuals. excited for it it was supposed to 00:43:21.849 --> 00:43:26.289 be for like no names to get like fight for something 00:43:26.289 --> 00:43:32.510 that something attainable yeah um i'm looking 00:43:32.510 --> 00:43:36.329 for them in the rankings i don't see kevin ramirez 00:43:36.329 --> 00:43:42.010 oh let's go to middleweight oh these are old 00:43:42.010 --> 00:43:51.340 rankings that's why And Kevin Ramirez, I think, 00:43:51.340 --> 00:43:58.639 was probably the highlight. I would say him and 00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:05.199 Troy Nash. I think it's Troy Nash, right? I did 00:44:05.199 --> 00:44:08.119 not keep up with it. I couldn't tell you. That's 00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:09.960 what I'm saying. I tried to keep up with it a 00:44:09.960 --> 00:44:14.940 little bit, but kind of lost any love for it 00:44:14.940 --> 00:44:16.760 because it was in a fucking Saudi warehouse. 00:44:21.250 --> 00:44:24.190 Not a lot of hype behind this Grand Prix in general. 00:44:24.989 --> 00:44:31.530 You know? Yeah. I don't know. It just didn't 00:44:31.530 --> 00:44:32.909 have a lot of buzz. That's all I got to say. 00:44:32.949 --> 00:44:35.570 It just didn't have a lot of buzz. I don't think 00:44:35.570 --> 00:44:38.349 these guys are going to make it far with their 00:44:38.349 --> 00:44:46.550 names. Okay, so Kevin Ramirez is from Argentina. 00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:59.519 Heavyweight ranks He's not even in here that's 00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:05.179 crazy So like what was what was the point of 00:45:05.179 --> 00:45:11.679 the tournament All right, they probably plays 00:45:11.679 --> 00:45:16.599 kind of give up on it too. Yeah, it's it's weird 00:45:18.159 --> 00:45:23.420 Dylan Biggs. Okay. And how is Dylan Biggs, the 00:45:23.420 --> 00:45:28.900 winner, ranked below Derek Pomerleau, the loser? 00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:34.000 That is some backwards shit. All right. WBC going 00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:40.760 to do WBC things. Moving on to the last recap. 00:45:41.119 --> 00:45:45.139 Salida promotions in Detroit. Tony Harrison. 00:45:45.869 --> 00:45:50.070 Unk still got it. KO4 over Brian Chavez. Looked 00:45:50.070 --> 00:45:54.309 pretty good. Unk still got it. That's all I'm 00:45:54.309 --> 00:45:56.989 going to say. He called out Errol Spence, which 00:45:56.989 --> 00:46:04.769 is spun. That's actually not a bad fight. Not 00:46:04.769 --> 00:46:07.010 a bad fight if it even happens. If it happens, 00:46:07.150 --> 00:46:09.849 yeah. It's going to be 2026. It's going to be 00:46:09.849 --> 00:46:19.710 three years since Spence has fought. And previews. 00:46:19.710 --> 00:46:24.750 We don't have a lot of them for this week. We 00:46:24.750 --> 00:46:27.250 got to talk about Andrew Tate versus Chase D 00:46:27.250 --> 00:46:31.570 'Amore. Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. Another 00:46:31.570 --> 00:46:40.090 influencer gets humbled. They were both doing 00:46:40.090 --> 00:46:47.119 a lot of fucking knob slobbing. Jake Paul and 00:46:47.119 --> 00:46:49.219 Andrew Tate. Yeah, like they were constantly 00:46:49.219 --> 00:46:52.119 falling to their knees. Like, what the hell are 00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:55.960 you doing? Andrew Tate lost any of the last amount 00:46:55.960 --> 00:46:59.099 of masculinity he had in that ring last night. 00:46:59.460 --> 00:47:03.000 Yeah, I guess. I thought he was like a champion 00:47:03.000 --> 00:47:06.960 kickboxer. In like some shitty league. Oh, it 00:47:06.960 --> 00:47:12.199 was a shit league. Okay. Yeah. So, never mind. 00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:17.960 He's just a douchebag. He's nice as a douchebag. 00:47:19.440 --> 00:47:27.179 He can go fuck himself. Another one that we didn't... 00:47:27.179 --> 00:47:33.099 I don't have on here, but Murat Gassiev knocked 00:47:33.099 --> 00:47:37.519 out Kubrat Pulev. Interesting fucking fight. 00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:44.219 In six rounds. Still got it? Yeah. Yeah, I see 00:47:44.219 --> 00:47:48.780 we got to do that Usyk rematch next, right? That 00:47:48.780 --> 00:47:53.679 would be a fun one for Usyk to do. Yeah, that 00:47:53.679 --> 00:48:00.579 would be funny. They say you got Wilder. Previews. 00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:07.079 Only to the Japanese are doing their end of year. 00:48:08.940 --> 00:48:11.820 They do fight sports all leading up to New Year. 00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:16.659 They do wrestling, MMA, kickboxing, like everything. 00:48:17.380 --> 00:48:23.019 The boxing card on the 31st, Shisei Promotions 00:48:23.019 --> 00:48:32.000 in Oda, Tokyo. I don't recognize anybody on here 00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:37.420 except for Kazuto Ioka. That's about it. Me neither. 00:48:37.800 --> 00:48:43.650 I have no idea who anyone else is. But boxing 00:48:43.650 --> 00:48:47.789 on New Year's, so that's fun. That's Sonata's 00:48:47.789 --> 00:48:54.090 game right there. Yeah. Saturday, January 3rd, 00:48:54.090 --> 00:48:59.469 to kick off the New Year, MVP on DAZN, Amanda 00:48:59.469 --> 00:49:05.070 Serrano defends her WBO featherweight title versus 00:49:05.070 --> 00:49:08.889 Reyna Tellez. I don't really recognize anyone 00:49:08.889 --> 00:49:14.280 on this card either. Jean -Paul Rivera. I've 00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:21.639 seen him on these MVP cards before. Ebony Bridges, 00:49:21.739 --> 00:49:30.340 I know, is certainly a fighter. Something. Holly 00:49:30.340 --> 00:49:33.699 Holm is fighting Stephanie Hahn, so that's cool. 00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:40.300 That's going to be a fight? Yeah. And yeah, Amanda 00:49:40.300 --> 00:49:44.559 Serrano. In the main event. Be interesting to 00:49:44.559 --> 00:49:49.239 watch her come back. Hopefully they do 12x3. 00:49:51.300 --> 00:49:53.539 I don't think she's ever been in a 12x3 fight. 00:49:53.900 --> 00:49:56.539 No, I don't think she has. She should, though. 00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:07.159 That's it, though. It's a light week. Very light 00:50:07.159 --> 00:50:13.199 week. And we still got the end of year best picks 00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:16.940 will be coming up. Going to wait for Josh to 00:50:16.940 --> 00:50:20.079 get back for those. 100%. We got to hear his 00:50:20.079 --> 00:50:22.980 takes. Yeah. I definitely want to hear his thoughts 00:50:22.980 --> 00:50:28.219 on Crawford, too. We got to hear what he's got 00:50:28.219 --> 00:50:34.019 to say. Yeah. That's it, though. We have caught 00:50:34.019 --> 00:50:43.380 up to wrap up 2025. So, yeah. Parting words. 00:50:43.639 --> 00:50:48.519 What do you got? Huh? We'll see you guys next 00:50:48.519 --> 00:50:52.519 year. Yep. See you next year. See you guys next 00:50:52.519 --> 00:50:55.739 year. That's it for this edition of the Boxing 00:50:55.739 --> 00:50:59.420 B -Sides. Fucking see you in 26.
