1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:21,680
Watch the headbutts and elbows. No rabbit punches, no low blows. This will not be a

2
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:29,640
clean fight, so protect yourself at all times. The underdogs are coming for the throne. This

3
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:38,160
is the B-Sides Boxing Podcast. We're fucking going. We'll do it live. We'll do it fucking

4
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:45,680
live. Got my Bill O'Reilly going on there. Okay. Imagine that shit B-Sides in your feed

5
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,160
twice in the same week. We're going to try doing something a little different today.

6
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:58,920
Less current events and a little bit more broader concept, conceptual discussion. So

7
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:06,880
I will make half of an ass of myself as usual. Okay, so I'm joined by my good buddy Drip

8
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:18,000
here. It's Drip, not Drip here, you know. But hey. Okay, cool. So we have on our website,

9
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:27,200
we started putting together more readable content and motherfuckers love lists for some

10
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:36,120
reason. So I polled Discord, got about 10 answers. 10 good responses. One like clown.

11
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:47,080
And so I put us together a little pound for pound list based on the regulars in Discord.

12
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,200
So let's have a chat about that for just a little bit.

13
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,680
Yeah, let's dive into it.

14
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,720
Alright, so Ushaket number one. Surprise? No surprise.

15
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,960
No surprise. No surprise there.

16
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:07,520
Yeah, I would even if like we're looking at just intra heavyweight, I'd still rate him

17
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,760
over Tyson Fury. It might be because I really don't like him.

18
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:19,880
You know, I just, I can't put Tyson Fury in any pound for pound and that's a hot take.

19
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,800
Only one response had him anywhere and it was number eight.

20
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,720
Even that's like this, I feel generous.

21
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:35,600
Yeah, it feels it. It does seem a little generous. Given his like recent body of work, even including

22
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,200
Deontay Wilder a little bit.

23
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:44,200
I just think when you fight Chizora, what was it three times already? It's like, how does

24
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,800
that get you a spot on half a pound?

25
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:54,120
It's not at all to say he's not a good boxer, not a good heavyweight. That's it's just he's

26
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,800
I think Ushaket is a lot better.

27
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,840
The skill is there, but I just don't think the...

28
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,480
Size disparity?

29
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:10,480
I just don't think the heart is in it. Like he's very, he's very meticulous on not always

30
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,960
say like who he fights, but it kind of comes down to that. Like the recent duck with Ushaket,

31
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,320
I mean, look, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck. It was a duck.

32
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,320
Yeah, for sure.

33
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:25,880
And it's like when you do that and you get that kind of backlash from like, I guess your

34
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:31,200
fans are now ex fans. Like where do you really see yourself now in the boxing? The former

35
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,120
boxing was pretty much...

36
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:39,960
Yeah. All right, let's move down to number two. Just fought recently against John Ryder.

37
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,760
Canelo, number two.

38
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,200
No surprise.

39
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:51,200
Yeah, not too surprised to see him here either. Another Brit bites the dust.

40
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,320
Was it the Brit basher they call him now?

41
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,680
Is that what it is?

42
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,520
I think Eddie Hearns said that he's called him the Brit basher or some shit.

43
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:01,520
I got a...

44
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,920
The name's fitting.

45
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:10,560
I want to try to think of something that is like Mexicutioner. I'm still salty about that.

46
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:16,120
I'm a big Canelo fan, but whether you're a fan or not, you really just can't deny the

47
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:22,320
work he's put in. He did four fights, was it, in 2021 or 22 to get the undisputed super

48
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,320
middleweight.

49
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,320
22.

50
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,720
Yeah, it's like, who really does all that in a year? You know what I'm saying?

51
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,280
Yeah. No, it was 21. That's when he was trying to make up time for COVID.

52
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:40,680
Right, right. Yeah. I think he beat Plant in what was that, like September?

53
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,160
September of 22 was Golovkin.

54
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,160
Right, right. I'll do that pathetic fight. That was bad.

55
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Yeah, that was bad for everybody.

56
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:54,880
But I feel like that fight, everyone kind of started bringing up the topic of the deep

57
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,040
line of Canelo, but I feel like that's a whole topic for another day.

58
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:05,600
It is. That's something that we might bring up, like work stuff.

59
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,160
We can definitely get into it because I think it's a hot topic right now, just in boxing

60
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,160
in general.

61
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:15,040
Yeah, absolutely. So yeah, this is actually a good time to discuss it better than any,

62
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:22,600
or as good as any. So John Ryder goes all 12, two rounds, Canelo scores a knockdown.

63
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,480
John Ryder starts leaking in, was it like round two?

64
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,800
Yeah, I think round two or three started leaking.

65
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:35,080
Yeah, he was, and that was a lot of blood coming out of his nose. That was, I've seen

66
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,800
some bad like nose breaks, but holy shit, that was pretty rough.

67
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,880
Yeah. I mean, some of the articles I read were that he couldn't breathe through his

68
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,800
nose, so he was just breathing through his mouth while swallowing blood. I mean, that

69
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,880
just makes the fight two times harder.

70
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:55,280
Absolutely. And the elevation was a problem for him too. I know that he went to LA, but

71
00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:56,880
that's not the same thing.

72
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,000
Not at all.

73
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:06,240
So John Ryder has like every disadvantage and he still goes a distance. It looked to

74
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:12,480
me that Canelo gassed about round nine. It's not unusual for him to do so, especially when

75
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,560
he like really puts it on in the mid rounds trying to get the stoppage like he did against

76
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:23,080
Ryder. So he can't fault him too much for that, I think. But nonetheless, like that,

77
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:29,120
him putting the pedal to the metal there, it did not yield the results that we expect.

78
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:35,120
He got the knockdown. Ryder looked like he would have stayed down. Obviously he got up,

79
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:40,600
continued fighting, but he was on his knee and he was like looking to his corner, like

80
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:46,520
do we want to keep doing this? Or like, I'm good either way. If we want to duck out early,

81
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:47,520
I'm cool.

82
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:53,160
Yeah, just get the payday and bounce. I think the second knockdown was ruled a slip, wasn't

83
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,160
it?

84
00:06:54,160 --> 00:07:00,560
Or am I tripping? No, I think it was definitely ruled a slip or if he fell over his feet or

85
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,560
something.

86
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,560
There was a slip in there, yeah.

87
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,000
Yeah, but I mean, either way, like the cards were against him. I mean, that's the thing

88
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,680
too, like when you fight Canelo, literally the cards are always going to be against you,

89
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:17,120
unless you're Bevel. But the cards are always against you. Everything's not in your favor.

90
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,520
So for John Ryder to even still go the distance, only breathing through his mouth, probably

91
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:25,120
swallowing a fuck ton of blood. I mean, it kind of paints a picture of like, all right,

92
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:30,880
who's Canelo fight next? And like, you know, how does it go? Like if it's um...

93
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,840
He really wants Bevel. He wants Bevel next is what he keeps saying. Yeah, he was saying

94
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:42,280
in the post fight, like I want it, I want to run back Bevel, 175, he can pick the location,

95
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:47,200
size of the gloves or like all the stipulations, same stipulations that we had before, I want

96
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,200
to do it again.

97
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:53,440
Dude, that reminds me, I saw a comment about Bevel just like commenting on Cal, one of

98
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,080
the rematch and he had like kind of like a stark ear mark a little bit. I'm trying to

99
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:02,760
find it real fast. There was something about how like, Bevel, if he fought him at 168,

100
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,440
it'd be better for Bevel because that way he could take his belts and he was saying

101
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,720
how like, if he fights him again at 175, what's the challenge for him?

102
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:17,680
That's true. That was at a... almost, it was in the immediate aftermath of the first fight,

103
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:23,520
that's when he said that, was like, because he said like, I walk around about 180, so

104
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:29,040
getting down to 68, it's not going to be a problem for me. Right. So there you like,

105
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:34,640
I would, I think that would actually make it a little bit more intriguing. It would

106
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,760
make it more competitive, but I still would favor Canelo with that, especially after just

107
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:44,760
like the Triple G fight and now the John Rider fight. I just don't have high favors no matter

108
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:51,160
what weight is in that Canelo beats Bevel. In the weeks leading up to and the immediate

109
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:59,360
post-fight shows that we did, including our MMA show, we talked about specifically David

110
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:06,920
Morrell and David Benavides. Those two guys are both like number one contenders with interim

111
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:15,320
and regular belts. So those guys are first in line and Ryder was also an interim, like

112
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:22,600
a mandatory number one contender. So those two guys are like, they're not John Ryder.

113
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:27,840
John Ryder is absolutely not on this level. John Ryder, I just, I had to say it like just

114
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:35,080
a gatekeeper. He's pretty mid, super mid. He's the same way, like I was kind of saying

115
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:41,160
how Kayla Plant is. He's just going to be like right now a high paid gatekeeper. Probably

116
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,680
not going to win a title ever, but just be a million dollar gatekeeper. That's where

117
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:47,680
it comes down to.

118
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:53,960
Yeah. For the exercise that we have coming up in a little bit, Ryder is included in part

119
00:09:53,960 --> 00:10:01,160
of that. Yeah, because like he's, cause he is that, that level of guy. Plant is in the

120
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:09,840
same conversation. So let's move down here to number three. We got Terrence Crawford.

121
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:16,980
That's always a hot topic too. I know. I put in the blurb that like, this is not my choice

122
00:10:16,980 --> 00:10:22,040
of the top, of the top two welterweights that we have of the current generation. He's not

123
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:28,020
my favorite. I don't think, I think that he is the second best, which is considering who

124
00:10:28,020 --> 00:10:34,280
you're up against. That's not at all a fault. That's not a demerit to be second best.

125
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,960
No, not at all.

126
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:45,960
Nonetheless, the guy has a really good body of work from 35 and 40, but like 40 was at

127
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:52,560
that time, the, the, I think Postal was like the only really good fight that he had. Indongo

128
00:10:52,560 --> 00:10:59,560
was funny. Like that was a funny meme just because of his name, but yeah. So like what

129
00:10:59,560 --> 00:11:07,640
I put here is that his run from his undisputed run at 40, like was, it was so easy. Like

130
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:13,100
you have to wonder is the division shit, which kind of yes, or is it that Crawford's just

131
00:11:13,100 --> 00:11:16,960
so fucking good. Also yes.

132
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,640
It's that kind of double edged sword. Cause I mean, the division still has a half retired

133
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:26,960
Kellbrook in it. It makes you wonder like what really is the competition besides Earl Spence

134
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,880
and I mean, even that one's a hot take too. It's like, is he ducking Spence or like what's

135
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,280
the holdup now?

136
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:42,000
Uh, yeah. I will, I'm, I'm firm in the Spence camp, so I'm going to stand by that Crawford

137
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:47,360
is the problem, but you know, he's had a little bit of like Diva issues before.

138
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:53,960
Yeah. I mean, like I said, in a division where you have half done Kellbrook and fully steroided

139
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:59,160
Amir Khan in it, it's like, I'm sure you're number one, but at like, you know, what's

140
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,360
the weight of that? I think we were fighting.

141
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:15,720
Yes. Okay. So originally when I only had nine, Inoue was fourth firm. Once I got that last,

142
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:22,480
the last ballot, he, now it's a tie. So I kept Inoue on top. I feel like Inoue is kind

143
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,720
of just like, there's no argument. Like he's there. He really just, yeah. What can you

144
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:36,000
say? Yeah. He started at 105, no shit. And look, he's still laying guys out like 20 pounds

145
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,560
later. That's fucking ridiculous. Just like being 105 pounds. Like that's gotta be insane,

146
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:45,840
dude. I can't like, I can't remember the last time I was doing anywhere near that weight.

147
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:57,760
Oh goodness. The day, like the day I arrived at bootcamp, I was, I'm six feet tall. I weighed

148
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:07,600
118. And so you were like, what 18 at the time? 17. 17. There you go. Like what's 105

149
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:14,440
then? Like what age is that as a grown man? Young teenagers, maybe. Yeah. Not much more

150
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:20,800
you can say. So, but one thing I did want to point out was the first four are or were

151
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:31,120
undisputed champions. Right. Whatever that counts. And number five, Errol Spence. I mean,

152
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,520
I could see it. I don't really have much against it either. Like Spence isn't ducking fights

153
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:42,040
or really anything like that. Like his resume isn't like terrible either. Like comparing

154
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:47,920
him to Crawford, they both fought Porter. They both fought, did Crawford fight you guys

155
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,520
too? I don't remember. No, Kellbrooke. No, he didn't. Kellbrooke. Yeah. They both fought

156
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,800
Brooke. They both fought Porter. I mean, I feel like their resumes are similar, but I

157
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,080
feel like Spence is kind of more what the smoke versus Crawford is. Yes. Yes, he is.

158
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:06,440
I mean, I'm just being biased too because I like Spence more. No, I don't think it's

159
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,880
really wrong to say that Spence has been more in the mix of things. It also helps being

160
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:18,280
in the PBC family that you have access to the better welterweights. So a little bit

161
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:26,120
of lack of access for Crawford, but also maybe don't sign an extension with Top Rank. Yeah,

162
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:32,440
I thought Crawford signed to that, what was it, BLK or something? Yeah, BLK Prime. I forgot

163
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:39,000
about that. That shit house deal. Oh, yeah. Broner. They signed Broner to like a $10 million

164
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:46,520
contract. God bless anyone paying Broner $10 million. No kidding. Like get after a Broner.

165
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:53,520
Okay. Maybe, maybe it'll come back eventually, but that's neither here or there. No, the

166
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:58,880
next two tied for sixth, but they are stacked the same way they would have been before that

167
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:08,200
final ballot. Bevil at number six. Yeah, Whoopin Canelo really raises your profile to say the

168
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:14,960
least. It does. It does. But has he done enough though to earn a spot on Copper Pound? At

169
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,880
least in that position at number six. Yeah, he's been at 75 his entire career as far as

170
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:26,480
I know, since I've been keeping track of him. He's been at 75. And yeah, the names haven't

171
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:33,720
been the best. Better Be Of definitely has a better resume for sure. And has the hardware

172
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:41,160
too. Yeah, I mean, what's his notable wins are Joe Smith Jr., Canelo and I don't know

173
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:49,800
if you want to call Ramirez a notable win, but Jean Pascal wasn't a bad one either. Yeah,

174
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,280
yeah. What year was that? Because that does make a difference when we're talking about

175
00:15:54,280 --> 00:16:03,640
an older guy like Pascal. Pascal was in 2018, I think. Not the worst. I don't know, like

176
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:08,800
he, I want to put Bevil on a Copper Pound spot because I am a big fan and I'm watching his

177
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:14,480
career. But at the same time, like yes, the Canelo win definitely puts you up there, but

178
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:21,080
the rest of your resume isn't that exciting either. Yeah, I think it's that like, honeymoon

179
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:29,800
phase where he just beat the guy. So now he must be some some kind of elite talent. So

180
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,200
so here's a hot take into the first four were like, you know, Undisputed Champions, you

181
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:39,480
know, is the reason we have guys like Bevil on here who haven't really done too much?

182
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:44,040
Is the reason we have Mondes because we don't have enough champions who have done enough?

183
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:52,960
That's a good question. I'd have to really think about it. That would definitely get

184
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:58,440
you thinking. But like I said, like I do like Bevil, I think his win over Canelo definitely

185
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,640
shot him up there. But really, was that enough to crack even like number 10 on the list?

186
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:09,640
Maybe 10. That's being generous. But yeah, if the group vote him at six, who am I to

187
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:21,760
vote for? Well, what I was, what I thought about him, like I feel like his legacy is

188
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:27,720
going to be tied not to Canelo like that. Anyone who's in the know, you know that you

189
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:35,480
knew that that was pretty much Bevil's fight to lose. Right, even if you didn't want to

190
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:43,840
let yourself believe it. Rematch, same thing. His legacy as far as the sport is concerned

191
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:53,640
is tied to BetterBF. Those are the two. It's not just entirely about the undisputed fight.

192
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:59,380
That makes it really cool. Like for me, being a fucking nerd, that makes it great. But those

193
00:17:59,380 --> 00:18:05,140
are the two people that are at the top of the division. If they don't fight each other,

194
00:18:05,140 --> 00:18:09,880
like BetterBF is about 40. He does not have a lot of time left. Bevil is still pretty

195
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:17,840
young. He could let BetterBF retire and then just kind of sweep up the belts against whoever

196
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:26,360
grabs him. This is his division for the taking once BetterBF is gone. So here's that thing

197
00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:32,400
with whole like, with BetterBF getting old, it brings that conundrum of like, now if Bevil

198
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,120
beats him, there's gonna be a couple things. Is he an old man? Oh yeah, you beat up an

199
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:40,560
old BetterBF. It's the same shit when I'm kind of old with Triple G. It's like, oh,

200
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:45,360
you beat up a grandpa Triple G. I think the age thing is kind of shitty. But I mean, it

201
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:50,480
plays a factor though, because like, yeah, BetterBF is old. Like that is gonna be a factor.

202
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:56,720
If he wasn't, to me, 40 is when you start getting into that like age is a really big

203
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:02,800
consideration. At the higher weights, it's like getting up in the like to the mid late

204
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:10,360
30s is not as big of a deal. You think that depends on weight class too though? Yeah,

205
00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:16,240
absolutely. Like, you know, everyone's favorite joke, how old is Luis Ortiz? But you know,

206
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:24,160
he's not the only old older heavyweight. He's not. Wilder's getting close to 40. Tyson

207
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:32,720
Fury is too. I forgot Wilder's like 37. Yeah, he's old, older, but older but Wilder doesn't

208
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,840
have a lot of mileage on him. Granted, his resume was a lot of taxi drivers, of course,

209
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:49,720
but his most of his mileage.

210
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:59,080
Yeah, to me at the higher weights, it scales with the with the weight classes. Like if

211
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:07,880
you're at 115, and you're like Estrada or Gonzales, you're in your like early 30s. You're

212
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:18,800
ancient for those divisions. But not quite the same thing when you start scaling up.

213
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:28,600
But let's continue here. Tied for six, Jermel, excuse me, Jermel Charlo. I think this is

214
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:35,080
criminally low to me. I really so hot take I actually never really follow this career

215
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:40,040
all that well. So my opinion on him is like, kind of like again, I never really follow

216
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,560
this career too much to really have an opinion on him. I would be talking on my ass if I

217
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:51,600
really said I had too much to say about Charlo. Let me let's go through his resume real quick.

218
00:20:51,600 --> 00:21:03,640
Even just even if we just talk about who he snagged the belts off of. Right. Excuse me.

219
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:14,000
He won vacant WBC in 2016 against John Jackson. Can't say I know who that is. Yeah, right.

220
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:22,600
First defense against Charles Hattley. Kind of remember this. But next was that dynamite

221
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:30,720
first round knockout of Ericsson Lubin. The highlight reel. Yep. Next up, Austin Trout.

222
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:38,880
This is a like about to be about the beginning of the end, if not, like the first chapter

223
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:46,080
of the end of the book for Austin Trout. He lost to Tony Harrison. That one I do remember.

224
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:53,520
That was a whole entire. Yeah, it was. It was really close. I think I think that's what

225
00:21:53,520 --> 00:22:00,440
made it so controversial, I guess. Let's see. Koda. That was a knockout. Quick little comeback

226
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:08,840
or a little get back and then rematch Harrison for the win. Right. Then he faces Jason Rosario.

227
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:17,920
Then Costano after that twice. Costano. Yeah. Which to me, that's more a testament to Costano

228
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:25,920
than it is a demerit to Charlo. But Rosario, just like to put him into a little bit of

229
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:34,680
context, he he snagged the belts, IBF and WBA. He snagged those off of J-Rock, Julian

230
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:45,040
Williams. Right. And then he fought Jermell. Then that weird like jab to the gut knockout.

231
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:52,000
And after that, like he's kind of faded into the sunset here. It just fell off the table.

232
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:57,680
Yeah, it's a kind it actually does take a little bit of the value away from the loss

233
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:06,560
from the win for Charlo, I mean. Whereas like Harrison went on to have he's had a decent

234
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:13,920
career still. Yeah, I know Harrison still in like still around. I know he just lost to

235
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:24,640
Tim Teeser though pretty badly. Yes. But Charlo at tied for sixth. Do you think that's do

236
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:30,320
you think that's too high? Too low? I think it's too low. Yeah, just based off his like

237
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:35,680
his resume, I think it's too low. Yeah, like his his resume is better than Terrence Crawford's.

238
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:40,760
Right. Yeah. I mean, I wish I followed his career a little more, sad for say on it, but

239
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:45,080
kind of just going through it and just like being in a mix of conversation about it. I'd

240
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:50,640
say he definitely belonged. He should be higher up on the list. Yeah. Like his resume is probably

241
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:56,040
better than Bevel. Yeah, literally better than Bevel. And that's a shade thing though, kind

242
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,280
of going back to it. The only reason if we're being honest, the only reason Bevel is really

243
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:05,520
on there is because of his Canelo win. His spot is cemented because of the Canelo one.

244
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:12,040
Absolutely. That anybody who's ever seen him fight before could say clearly that this dude

245
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:19,240
has serious talent, very, very skilled operator. He has that like that Soviet style of boxing,

246
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:27,600
like no shit. But like he's really, really good. Anybody who has any semblance of understanding

247
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,720
of the sport would already know that. Not sure why it took Canelo for them to figure

248
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:40,000
that out. I still don't know. Like, I think from the jump, everyone kind of gave Canelo

249
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:45,960
like some kind of hope. But like as the rounds went on, that hope depleted so fast. Yeah,

250
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:53,200
my pseudo-hopium, I think like round three, I'm like, yeah, nevermind. I'm done. I'm done

251
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:59,720
pretending. This is a wash. Yeah, this is, fuck it. Let's phone it in. Oh, so that reminds

252
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,000
me actually, I saw this a while back, I think like a year, no, no, no, not a year ago. It

253
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,960
was a few months after the fight with them, people. It was saying how like, Reynoso's

254
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:15,720
guys like Valdez and Canelo, like Reynoso's great when his guys are winning, but when

255
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:20,040
his guys are losing, the hot take is that Reynoso isn't like, you know, that great.

256
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:25,640
Like, he doesn't really give any instruction. Like when Shakur was whooping Valdez's ass,

257
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,320
there was really nothing from Reynoso other than just stay alive. And same thing with

258
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:35,120
Canelo. Like when Vivo was kind of whooping Canelo, Reynoso just, I feel like you didn't

259
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:39,960
have much advice for him besides stay alive. Don't get knocked out. So that is a hot take

260
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:45,680
I heard about a while back. Interesting. Does it hold true? I don't really know. But, I

261
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,640
know now that I've heard it and I kind of like watched those fights, I'm like, yeah,

262
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:54,000
I mean, there was no really like a change in like strategy for Valdez or Canelo in those

263
00:25:54,000 --> 00:26:03,600
losing fights. Yeah, for the Vivo loss, that one I did see, I was able to hear like firsthand,

264
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:08,280
like you're not helping him. What are you doing? What are you, what is he paying you

265
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:14,400
for? Dude, that's just like Tio's dad. Knock him the fuck out, bro. What are you doing?

266
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:19,920
Yo, yeah. I mean, Freddie Roach with like the famous like we need the knockouts on.

267
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:29,280
Come on. That worked like one time maybe ever. But. Humble brag for Valdez Stevenson. I was

268
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:34,960
in the arena. So yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. I didn't have very good seats. It was in the press

269
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,400
row. So it wasn't very good. I'm sure the amateur was still fun though. Yeah, it was

270
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:47,360
really, really fun. I was surprised at how much fan base Stevenson had in the arena.

271
00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:52,520
I wasn't expecting that much. That's like another hot topic we can hit on later is like

272
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,800
Stevenson's like popularity. Because I do remember when he beat Valdez, he was like,

273
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:04,400
oh, I'm on pound for pound. And I was like, whoa, slow down, tiger. Yeah. Yeah, we'll

274
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:11,480
get to him in a second. Gervonta Davis at number eight. Oh, I knew someone was coming

275
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:19,280
actually. Yeah, I want to put Tank on it so bad. Like he is exciting and everything. And

276
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,920
his resume isn't even that terrible actually. It's not bad. I think he's about proper maybe

277
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:31,400
six to eight range, maybe five, I guess. Yeah. I mean, I wish he had some more belts on or

278
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:38,600
under his belt for lack of better puns. But I think Tank deserves a spot. I would say

279
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,960
like a high spot. Not really, but from what he said, six to eight. Yeah, about six to

280
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,840
eight. I agree with that. Yeah, there's really not much argument that like he is exciting,

281
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:53,920
solid resume. He whooped Garcia, whooped Hector Garcia. I know Romero wasn't exactly a big

282
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,960
competitor, but that was definitely a fun fight to watch. How good that win is will remain,

283
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:08,680
we remains to be seen, like since he's coming up. I think he Davis might also he being a

284
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:14,200
PBC guy, there's people are certain a certain segment of the fan base is always going to

285
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,800
try to find a way to discredit him. I think it's partly that it's he's a victim of his

286
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:26,440
own success. He's just he's a much more intelligent fighter than people think just because like,

287
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:32,400
you know, he isn't very eloquent. But like he showed that he showed it more than anything

288
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:39,200
against Ryan Garcia, the first knockdown that was fucking pure and pure intelligence. And

289
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:46,520
how beauty Yeah, and how he finished a fight was same thing was just IQ. So side note on

290
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:56,640
that one. Do you think Ryan quit? I'm torn on this one, to be honest with you. That's

291
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:03,240
what the heavy side is, is like, I'm not, I'm not sure. Because like I've being in the

292
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:08,000
military, like you learn how you have to fight each other like for training, you know what

293
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:13,560
I mean? Like, yeah, you have to actually do it. So I really know what it's like to get

294
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:20,600
hit somewhere on your body. And then your, your brain, your brain commanding yourself

295
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:31,080
to move is not working. But at the same time, something that made it kind of questionable

296
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:37,240
was almost immediately after the ref waved his hands, he gets up almost immediately.

297
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:42,640
He got up and was walking around so filing. Exactly. That's what makes me question it.

298
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:47,400
Like, I mean, if you want to just duck, like you just want to, you know, like I got nothing.

299
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,680
This guy hits really hard and I can't land anything. Like, there's no more. I can't do

300
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:59,880
anything. So what's the point? I think if Ryan hadn't like, I know it's all business,

301
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:04,840
of course, you know, it's media, but if Ryan hadn't talked all that shit, I'd kind of give

302
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,200
him kind of a pass like, all right, you found the hard way that you know, take it's hard.

303
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,400
He's better than you thought. But like, to talk all that shit, and then pretty much,

304
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,680
I'm going to say he quit. I mean, I hate to say it, but I'm gonna say he did. I'm gonna

305
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,320
talk all that shit. Yeah, and then quit. I feel like you can lose some credibility and

306
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:27,240
some respect. Like I know they talk shit for the media, but I don't know. I just I think

307
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:34,040
talking all that shit and then ultimately quitting just kind of lose a lot of credibility.

308
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:40,880
Yeah. If he's gonna want to do that, he's gonna have to learn how to sell the quote

309
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:46,320
unquote pain a little better. Yeah, I mean, like you said, he got a fucking like a spring

310
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,520
chicken on his feet again, as soon as the ref waved it off. He's like, right, I got

311
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:54,360
paid. I'm done. I didn't get knocked out. Like, yeah, they were saying they were saying

312
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,760
that like, I haven't followed it too much. But they're saying he had like a bruised

313
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,480
rib going into the fight. There was like a mole in this camp or some shit. And it's kind

314
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:07,240
of like, if all that's true, but like, either way, bro, like the fights done, you lost like

315
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:13,920
what you say now isn't gonna change anything. Yeah, then it just turns into like excuses.

316
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:20,040
Which it to me, I would say excuses are worse than quitting. 100% I mean, if you're gonna

317
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:26,680
quit, like, that's fine. Whatever. Like, own it. Maybe you talk some shit, whatever. But

318
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:32,200
I think just owners he had tried so hard to like, make himself seem like he was better

319
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:37,520
than he really was. But in reality, he just found the hard way that like, maybe boxing

320
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:43,440
is not for him. Like, is he fast and flashy? Yeah, but like, I think I'm gonna tell you

321
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:49,680
now. I think his win over Luke Campbell, he got lucky. Lucky body shot. Sure, like, was

322
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:54,280
it maybe well timed? Okay, yeah. But he got knocked out. Not knocked out. Sorry, he got

323
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:59,040
knocked down that Luke Campbell fight. He got up and just probably went for the gusto

324
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,680
and got lucky with that body shot. But if he got knocked down again, that Luke Campbell

325
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:08,720
fight, like you think you would quit? I don't know. Good question. I don't know. I just

326
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:15,920
I just think I like Ryan. He's flashy. He's fun to watch. But I just don't think like,

327
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:23,000
he's ever gonna really be a champion. He can't. The heel roll is isn't for him. Like, because

328
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:28,720
he's he's handsome. And he's like a flashy social media star. Like, dude, play play that

329
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:34,480
up. Oscar De La Hoya did it fucking perfectly. Just do that. But the problem was that it

330
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:40,600
was actually good though. Yeah, right. That's kind of the problem. Like, dude, Ryan can

331
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,920
be good because he's still so young. But it's a matter of, I guess like how serious does

332
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:49,000
he take it? Like, everyone looks good hitting the bag. Everyone looks good hitting pads.

333
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,200
Like, it all looks good for social media. But like, we saw him push came to shove. Like,

334
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,840
it's awesome. You challenge yourself to a big fight with tank. But it also seems like

335
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,560
you kind of backed out like when you got punched and said, Okay, fuck this fight's not for

336
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:08,440
me. Yeah, this is that hurt a little more than normal. Like, like I give him his props.

337
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:13,040
He got knocked down the second got right back up. Yeah, I feel like those in between rounds

338
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,480
like after that he was just treading water and kind of looking to his corner like, yo,

339
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:22,320
what the fuck do I do? And Goosen had no advice there. All Goosen did was just dress nice.

340
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:29,080
Yeah, nice is a relative term here. Nice is putting it lightly. I'm not too keen on his

341
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:35,840
fashion sense. And we just had that discussion a few days ago and in the discord. But a little

342
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:44,320
bit more on Ryan Garcia and if this sport is for him later. Yeah, for sure. Number nine

343
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:51,080
are to better be if he and people I think should be swapped where they landed. Yeah,

344
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:55,120
better be if has a better resume. For sure. There's not much really go about that really

345
00:33:55,120 --> 00:34:01,200
better be a never dropped anybody. Better resume just Yeah, I think he earns a spot

346
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,560
to where people is and people should be where he is in like the ladder editor list. Right.

347
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:10,320
Yeah, the only thing that I put like here worth mentioning is that father time remains

348
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:17,400
undefeated. So like, getting into the ring with people. He needs to do that sooner rather

349
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:22,520
than later because he's not getting younger. And people is going to continue being as good

350
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:27,560
as he is. See, if he was not getting any worse. Yeah, exactly. He's going to continue being

351
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:33,960
good. Excellent. If not improving, which seems kind of weird, like, because he's at like

352
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:44,360
a 99.9% excellence rate. Okay, number 10. Shakur Stevenson. Oh, yeah, this one. I don't

353
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:50,440
like Stevenson here. I would have put a full time. Yeah, cool boy stuff. Yeah, he has the

354
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:59,400
wins. Like Stevenson, you have Valdez who has proven to be kind of lame. Yeah, Valdez

355
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:07,560
was fucking cheats as well. Oh, Stevenson. I want to like him. Well, not so long time

356
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:13,040
if that makes sense. Not yet. At least. I do like him. He seems like like he seems like

357
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:24,800
the most well rounded of the like the lightweight crop. But like you can't not mention the lack

358
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:30,960
of power you really can't, especially when you have a guy like tank walking around in

359
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:38,120
the same division as you. Yeah, the lack of power. And this is why I bring up when people

360
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:43,520
say Shakur versus Haney would be a great fight. I'm like, it really wouldn't be though. Like,

361
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:49,120
for a boxing like just pure standpoint, would it be like very scientific and like, highly

362
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:55,720
technical? Yeah. Yeah, but it's gonna be boring. A lot of punches thrown between them probably.

363
00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:59,560
I mean, this is a hypothetical extreme example. We'll probably like 100 punches thrown between

364
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:07,400
them the first six rounds. That's it reminds me of that meme. Oh, fuck. I'm thinking of

365
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,440
that. But either way, it just seems gonna be both of them just circling each other.

366
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:20,440
Throwing a shit jab here and there. And that's pretty much it. What's up fellas? Oh, what's

367
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:27,200
going on, man? Sorry, I'm fashionably late. Oh, perfect timing though. Yeah, perfect,

368
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:32,040
perfect timing. Well, you're just talking about my favorite hypothetical fight. Haney

369
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:40,640
Stevenson? Oh, dude, I have mad insomnia and I need to eat either a THG vape or a melatonin

370
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:45,560
gummy and if they just made that fight, I think I could cut both out of my life and

371
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:50,480
I could just play that on replay. Thank you, brother. Thank you. Because that fight will

372
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:56,440
be a fucking snoozefest. Yeah, I can only really talk about it from the, excuse me,

373
00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:03,920
the quote unquote purist perspective. Like you really, really have to love the highly

374
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:12,440
technical minutia of the sport to appreciate that one more than you would tank Garcia.

375
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:19,960
100%. I mean, don't get me wrong, even like, I was never a high level boxer for just like

376
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,320
being in the ring and stuff. Like I'll definitely appreciate that fight, but I know it's not

377
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:29,280
a fight I'm ever going to want to like have replay value with. That makes sense. I mean,

378
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:36,640
if you're not watching it in reverse quarter speed upside down with the volume off in black

379
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:45,040
and white only, then are you even really a boxing fan? Exactly. All right. So that's

380
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:52,360
going to cut, that's going to do it for that. Making good time here. All right. Let's kick

381
00:37:52,360 --> 00:38:00,000
it off with these interesting fights to make in certain divisions. Let's do it. It's important

382
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:08,320
to note for the listener who cannot see this, these are not including like your top tier

383
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:17,240
guys like Shakur versus tank or Ryan Garcia versus fucking Devin Haney or, you know, or

384
00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:22,520
Spence versus Crawford. That's not what we're talking about here. Cause those fights are

385
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:28,520
always going to be amazing to at least to talk about and probably going to deliver in

386
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:36,200
the ring. Whereas there's still that crop beneath that, like that B tier. And that's

387
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:44,200
where we're going to be doing our work today. Okay. You know, I want to start at super middle

388
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:51,920
weight, which is at the bottom of the list, but the six names that I picked, John Ryder,

389
00:38:51,920 --> 00:39:00,160
Demetrius Andre, Christian and Billy, Kayla Plant, Bekhtamir Malakuziev aka Bekhtabuli

390
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:09,480
and Diego Pacheco. Can we throw in an honorable mention of Billy Saunders? Recently unretired.

391
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:19,160
Sure. Yeah. Let's put them in there. I will have to say, like if there was ever an indictment

392
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:25,480
on the lower, the lower rungs of the top 10 or top 15 of a division, it would be this

393
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:37,480
list. It's not rough. Yes, it is. It's a rough list. It is. Well, hold on. Let me, I got

394
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:42,240
to crack another beer on this one. Also full bias. I do have a signed Billy Joe Saunders

395
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:49,000
boxing gloves, but that's a side story. What? Yeah. Oh, you can't drop that. Yeah. Why?

396
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:56,600
Where? Where? When? Why? So, um, this was like, this was a while back. Um, I saw this

397
00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:01,400
guy on Instagram, which sells like boxing memorabilia from the UK. And he put a picture

398
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,920
of like Billy Saunders, like signing gloves and he was like, Oh no, we're selling these

399
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:09,560
X, Y, and Z. I was like, dude, fuck it. Like I'll buy one, whatever. And that's pretty

400
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:14,280
much it. I just bought it. It comes with like the signed glove with Saunders, um, a photograph

401
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:19,320
of him, like, like a certificate of authenticity kind of. Yeah. Yeah. And that's pretty much

402
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,520
it. Like it's, it's pretty cool. Definitely pay a lot of money for it more than I should

403
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:29,360
have, but it's a nice memorabilia. Billy Joe Saunders though. Listen, dude, I saw it and

404
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,640
I was like, fuck it, man. I like watching Billy. Cause like when I was boxing, um, I

405
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:37,760
took a lot of my just like style and inspiration from Saunders, how just like, how slick he

406
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:43,680
is and just, so I don't say an orthodox, but just like, you know, the hands down, just

407
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:50,200
the quick movements. What you'd expect from like a Philly fighter, a slick New York or

408
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:55,280
Philly fighter. Exactly. So I took a lot of my like inspiration from him. Granted like,

409
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:59,800
you know, boxing aside, yeah, he's kind of a prick. A little bit funny here and there.

410
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:04,560
Not gonna lie. He has his moments. Yeah. But yeah, I took a lot of my style from him. So

411
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,920
I was like, you know what? I like the guy a lot. I'll get a signed glove from him. Like

412
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,800
why not? But that's pretty much it. Not much more exciting to it. I didn't like meet him

413
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:15,320
at a bar or something and said, Hey, can you sign this? I carry a boxing glove with me

414
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:26,400
at all times. Um, so I was right. So when you have, I think the appropriate nickname

415
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:33,000
for guys like that is supposed to be like white chocolate. Yeah. Is that that one kid?

416
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:40,520
Yeah, there is. There is a white chocolate in the UK right now. I think he's in the UK.

417
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:46,980
All right. But let's get to it. Um, in BLE recently, like I want to say like a month

418
00:41:46,980 --> 00:41:54,840
and a half, two months ago, he was on a ESPN card, ESPN plus, and he got into a fucking

419
00:41:54,840 --> 00:42:04,800
war with Carlos Cogorra. This guy has a gas tank. Holy shit. He has a gas tank and he

420
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:11,640
go, he swings for the fences. He does not stop. He is relentless. So it's easy to say

421
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:19,280
that like, I would say Andre, just cause I really don't like him. And I would like someone

422
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:28,920
for someone to beat him up, but I'm not entirely certain on in BLE. So with that being said,

423
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:35,200
do you think in BLE versus plant we could fight? It's the same situation as like Saunders,

424
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:43,080
Andre or plant like the in BLE is not as mobile as they are. That's, that's why John writers

425
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,480
got to be perfect for him, right? Yeah. That's someone who's going to try and stick to him

426
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:53,200
like blue and try and just, you know, he's tough enough to where, well, maybe I just

427
00:42:53,200 --> 00:43:01,560
had a very bad vision of in BLE stopping Ryder when Canelo couldn't, but we're going to table

428
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:06,040
that discussion. Ideally, ideally Ryder could stick with him for 12 rounds and they could

429
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:12,600
slug it out and they could, you know, it'd be a, it could be a very entertaining fight.

430
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,640
If they stick in the center of the ring and slug it out, that, that would actually be

431
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:21,000
something fun to watch. I mean, if it's a slug fudge we're going for, I would say, you

432
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:28,260
know, Beck the bully in a BLE. I was going to say Beck the bully. I, he said, he kept

433
00:43:28,260 --> 00:43:33,160
saying in the promotion leading up to his rematch with Rosado, it was a lucky punch.

434
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:39,600
You know, he got me, take nothing away from it, but he's not going to do it again. And

435
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:47,840
I think in BLE either Gungoro is his like skull is made out of like adamantium or Beck

436
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:54,040
or in BLE doesn't have that much power either way. I think Beck, Beck the bully is going

437
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:59,120
to stand right in his face and in BLE is going to be there for it. Pacheco is a good option

438
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:05,440
too for that, for that same type of situation. Yeah. I think those matchups sound pretty

439
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:12,720
interesting to watch honestly. They'll probably all be bangers. Not going to lie. Yeah. Literally.

440
00:44:12,720 --> 00:44:19,120
Andreid versus Saunders. That was supposed to happen. It wasn't. Yeah. Yeah. That was

441
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:23,480
a, they, I felt like that was scheduled for a middleweight fight like three or four years

442
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:29,840
ago. Yeah. Andreid was moving up from 54. He was, he had, I think the WBO belt and then

443
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:37,000
he moved up to 60, which in the WBO rules, the lower weight champion gets like immediate

444
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:42,120
first dibs at the current champion in the division that he's moving to. Right. And then

445
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:47,400
Billy got popped for PED. That's why we call him boss. Did he pretend to have like a mental

446
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:52,280
health meltdown or does, is that just, is that the other traveler? I don't think Saunders,

447
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:56,840
I don't think Saunders knows what that is honestly. If we're being honest, like you

448
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:01,280
ever hear the guy talk just how much of a dick he is, I don't think he knows what that

449
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,840
is. Yeah. Well, you'd think Tyson Fury doesn't either, wouldn't either given how much of

450
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:16,000
a jackass he can be, but. I bet that was his first introduction to mental health is when

451
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:22,200
Tyson Fury said he was going through some stuff and he's like, oh, I get it now. If

452
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:28,000
I. Okay, so I find it right here. Sorry, go ahead. If I pop for performance enhancing

453
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:35,000
drugs, I could just say that I'm in a dark place and step away from the sport. So if

454
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:41,760
I do a lot of cocaine and almost drive my car off a bridge, there's my out. Just mental

455
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:50,120
health. So Billy got popped for that PEDs and he got shipped for a WBO against the Andrade

456
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:57,840
and I just saw the article Frank Warren said the use of a common decongestant nasal spray

457
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:06,920
trigger the positive test. Was it a Dillion White that a pre-workout that he picked up

458
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:16,320
at GNC or something is what made him pop for PEDs one time? I think for decongestant, maybe

459
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:22,560
because I know that isn't that stuff used to make meth. I have no idea. I'm not sure

460
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:27,520
what's in it. I only know this from watching. I watching Breaking Bad. That's the only reason

461
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:35,240
I know this. Oh, love Breaking Bad. Yeah. Okay. Before we continue either within this

462
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:40,400
division or moving to a different one, we need to settle on a pronunciation here for

463
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:46,880
Andrade. I've heard a lot of different ways. Like there was this lady that fought in the

464
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:54,160
UFC, I think last weekend. Her name is Andrade. It's spelled exactly the same. If we were

465
00:46:54,160 --> 00:47:01,240
pronouncing this name in Spanish, it would be Andrade. Andrade. Plus you did strip. So

466
00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:04,520
I thought it was, I thought it always was Andrade just based off interviews and stuff,

467
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:09,880
but if I'm wrong, please correct me. What makes me think that it's Andrade is because

468
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:15,000
like he's, he's a black American. So like that's probably how it would be pronounced

469
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:20,120
there. Has anyone ever heard David Diamante pronounce his name? That's the final answer.

470
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:24,920
Fuck you're right. Holy shit. That's probably going to be our answer. And he will confirm

471
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:32,040
it after he tells you. He will confirm it for you right then and there. God. Yeah, I'm

472
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:37,040
going to look for this immediately when we're done. That's going to be our answer honestly.

473
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:43,520
I feel like I've heard people pronounce it like Andrade. Yeah. And I heard that too.

474
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:49,640
I feel like even fight commentators have said that. And typically they, yeah, they typically

475
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:55,320
they get it right. Well, let's ask Chris Mannix because he's like his towel boy or something.

476
00:47:55,320 --> 00:48:05,760
Okay. What division we want to do next. We got light. We got 35, 40 and 47. Light. All

477
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:15,040
right. 35. Okay. No champions here. We have Ken Bosos, Isaac Cruz, Frank Martin, Michelle

478
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:24,160
Rivera, Yoshino, that dude that Stevenson just beat up and Williams have paid up. War Bosos.

479
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:30,800
War Bosos. He like he might not like he got he beat Teofimo like the stars aligned for

480
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:38,880
him and then you know he got the fights with Haney and got taken to school. Yes, he obviously

481
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:44,780
doesn't belong on that level. But I feel like these guys here could make for some interesting

482
00:48:44,780 --> 00:48:54,040
fights for him. I think Frank Martin would just wreck his lights out. Yeah. I think Rivera

483
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:58,800
wouldn't actually be a terrible fight for him. Yeah. Kind of got exposed as being a

484
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:07,520
tier below or Yoshino either Yoshino also yeah he he's durable but also does Shakur

485
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:13,840
really have power or not. But nonetheless Yoshino stayed like he tries to get in the

486
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:20,400
pocket and stay there. So that's yeah that'll make for an exciting fight with anybody. Especially

487
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:25,360
for Ken Bosos he thrives off of the counterpunch right like that's really all he looks for

488
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:31,040
it sometimes. So that would hopefully you would think give him a lot of openings to

489
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:37,600
maybe do a little bit of work and actually be exciting. See I want to throw a hot take

490
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,600
here. I like War Bosos because he like he's got some heart bro like he'll stand there

491
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:46,600
and fight like we saw with Teofimo Lopez he was afraid to trade with him. Obviously we

492
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:50,280
didn't see it much with Haney just based off the fight styles but I'm definitely gonna

493
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,760
watch them in War Bosos fight because I think he is kind of exciting to watch. Granted he

494
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:59,960
might be kind of shit but he'll play on our show. I think a lot of the dislike comes from

495
00:49:59,960 --> 00:50:07,480
he's like he kind of believed his own hype a little bit too much. When he beat Teofimo

496
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:14,320
he was like this must mean that I am like the king dingling of 135 and then Devin Haney

497
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:21,200
gets gets called up for the mandatory. But now isn't the same thing that happened to

498
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:31,480
Lopez when he beat Loma to leave his own hype. Yes. 100%. Absolutely. That's what's maybe

499
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:36,000
a quick aside here. That's what's so hard about these underdog stories is like I don't

500
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:42,320
think there's really any story out there where the underdog like goes on to have an illustrious

501
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:49,640
championship career. They typically get put back in their place and you know it's like

502
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:56,800
I don't know if that's just the pressure of handling that kind of an upset and like or

503
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,600
if it's just they were never that good to begin with and they just like you said the

504
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:08,120
stars aligned. Maybe this isn't the best example but point counterpoint of an underdog coming

505
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:16,940
for the spot and retiring on top Juan Manuel Marquez knocks out Manny Pacquiao in their

506
00:51:16,940 --> 00:51:23,520
fourth fight. Oh yes. Marquez and Manny. That he's not Marquez is a fucking legend in his

507
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:30,640
own regard that he but in the in the terms of like the that generation with Mayweather

508
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:39,400
Pacquiao Cotto like Cotto and Marquez fucking two sides of the coin there. They were they're

509
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:45,840
extremely good and they would be like generational elite if they were in a generation without

510
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:55,280
Mayweather and Pacquiao and Margarito I guess for Cotto's sake. I could agree with that.

511
00:51:55,280 --> 00:52:01,200
So that's to me Marquez he's obviously really really good so he's not necessarily an underdog

512
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:10,520
but in the context of Pacquiao. I have to bring up any time I can. Marquez knocked Pacquiao

513
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:16,560
out and Pacquiao is a sixth division champion not eight. I mean it's a sight we're never

514
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:23,720
gonna forget just and Manny laid out. Did you see that video I posted in Discord of it's

515
00:52:23,720 --> 00:52:29,680
like 10 or 15 minutes of fan reactions like they're recording the like they have all their

516
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:35,920
friends and family to watch it and like it switches it goes from Filipino family to Mexican

517
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:42,920
family to Filipino family to Mexican. It's so funny. Oh my God. It's so funny. It is

518
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:50,100
so funny. It feels like it's like righteous justice for me. I went to the Philippines

519
00:52:50,100 --> 00:52:57,600
after the third fight which a lot of people think Marquez won including me. So I was there

520
00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:03,120
and we're sitting there and of course Manny Pacquiao comes up because Philippines and

521
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:11,280
I was like oh so should I not tell all of my you know my Filipino military counterparts.

522
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:20,560
I am a big Marquez fan. Wrong place wrong time. Yeah and that one of the one of the

523
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:25,480
American Filipino American soldiers that was with us he told me like kind of on the side

524
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:30,480
of the cake. Don't be too brash about it. You know like this is like you don't understand

525
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:36,920
how big of a deal he is. OK. I'll be cool. But so like we actually did have some fun

526
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:41,840
nuanced discussions about Marquez and Pacquiao and they actually do have a lot of respect

527
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:52,000
for him before the knockout at least after a knockout. Perhaps my favorite one was it

528
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,320
was like this big party. I don't know how I got to this guy's table but it was like

529
00:53:56,320 --> 00:54:02,360
a Filipino one star army general and we're sitting there like I'm like what the fuck

530
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:08,680
am I doing here. And so we like the boxing comes up. I mentioned that I'm a Marquez fan

531
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:14,200
Mexican Marquez fan. It's like oh man like you know Marquez that's Pacquiao unsolved

532
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:18,440
riddle. I don't know if he'll ever be able to crack it like like crack the code like

533
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:27,360
that. Marquez is just like the perfect foil to him. Like yeah. God damn right he is. Just

534
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:32,440
the biggest girl in your face. Yeah. I was like thank you. Thank you. Like I mean you

535
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:37,440
can't not appreciate Pacquiao even if you are a Marquez fan like the dude's amazing.

536
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:44,960
Oh for sure. Anyway sorry that we're completely off kilter here. Oh good. I mean I guess to

537
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:52,920
go back to the list. He's got Cruz Frank Martin. I was just gonna say that. Um that's a tough

538
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,880
call though. That's a tough one though because Frank Martin is like a technician. But he's

539
00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:05,520
also like he has the physicality. Cruz might be smaller but he also he's like the Napoleon

540
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:12,440
complex physicality. Dare I say and I'm gonna dare say would that end in a draw possibly

541
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:20,080
the first fight. That could definitely be a fight where early on Martin doesn't have

542
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:29,160
an answer to the aggression. Yeah to his sort of pit bull style. But he I Martin strikes

543
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:33,960
me as the kind of guy he's intelligent enough to make on the fly adjustments. I feel like

544
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:40,480
he should be able to adjust to that but it may come kind of too late to turn the fight

545
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:47,000
around in this favor. That's very possible. I can see that yeah. He is with Derek James.

546
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:52,640
He's in the Derek James camp and like he's also has spent as his like immediate mentor.

547
00:55:52,640 --> 00:56:01,040
So that means he has Anthony Joshua in his corner also. So does that mean a Mrs. Amir

548
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:14,280
cons in the corner too. What a wild team that is. Oh goodness. But no I think he's that

549
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:24,000
Cruz and Frank Martin probably just wash anyone on that list except for each other. Rivera

550
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:31,840
I don't know. Like I feel like because we were comparing him to his hot like to the tear above him.

551
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:34,920
Because like that's what people were saying he was going to be. I kind of believe the

552
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:42,760
hype a little bit. But Rivera if we keep him you know don't give him ideas above his own

553
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:50,800
station and look at him maybe boxing a guy like Yoshino or Zepeda. Where he's a little

554
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:58,320
bit more a little bit more slick but still has that like Dominican sort of semi aggressiveness

555
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:05,920
smart intelligent aggressiveness effective. You got a more bosses on here but not a Lord

556
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:15,440
and Savior Keishon Davis. Yeah I wasn't sure because I'm extremely keen on Keishon super

557
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:20,440
super keen on him. So I felt like it would have been a little bit too much of me trying

558
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:27,760
to shoehorn in him beating you know what I mean. I think on one hand if just from in

559
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:33,520
practical speaking practically these are the guys he should be fighting soon. Yeah absolutely.

560
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:38,760
Yeah. Should be in with these guys but just with the way boxing works that probably won't

561
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:43,800
happen at least for another three fights if I had to guess. But in a perfect world we

562
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:49,440
would be seeing him against someone like Campos or you know Yoshino or Zepeda like those are

563
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:58,320
guys that he could theoretically go into next fight and win. Because Bob Arum like the old

564
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,840
adage I think it was Floyd Mayweather that said that Bob Arum doesn't know how to promote

565
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:09,520
black fighters. But even if you want to take that aspect out of it like fucking Keishon

566
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:16,120
is super super talented. Yes that's a little bit of my bias speaking but like I don't know

567
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:23,360
why he's being like progressed at the pace of Bob Arum's walking speed. Fucking hurry

568
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:32,480
up this kid has the goods. Yoshino is like perfect. Perfect. That to me is perfect. See

569
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:38,360
I don't know if he's gonna fight Yoshino next because I know him and Shakur are in the

570
00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:42,360
same camp like they're boys together and if Shakur just beat Yoshino I don't think they're

571
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:47,960
gonna feed Yoshino to his boy next. Kind of like a punching bag. But I could be wrong.

572
00:58:47,960 --> 00:59:00,120
Those top ranked paydays I mean. That's true. The yen will talk. The yen. Yeah. Trying

573
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:06,960
to see what other good fights we got here. Man I'm thinking about Keishon the whole time

574
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:20,320
now I can't not think of someone else. Keishon is my lord and savior. What about Hime Ortiz?

575
00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:26,880
He just lost to Loma. Jermaine. Jermaine sorry not Hime. Yeah it's fine. Jermaine Ortiz.

576
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:32,040
That's a good shout. He actually should be on this list. He should be. He actually does

577
00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:37,080
a lot of really good fights for him here. Yeah. I think he put up a great fight. Him

578
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:44,200
versus Rivera. Him versus Kambosas. Those are all like great fights for him. I'd like

579
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:51,100
to see him against Zveda. He did. I was a bit surprised. I had to keep reminding myself

580
00:59:51,100 --> 00:59:58,360
like Lomachenko's been he was back in Ukraine not even like staying warm. He's just not

581
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:07,080
even training in any way. He's just out in Ukraine you know doing like god bless him.

582
01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:12,000
So you have to me that's what you have. The context that I needed to keep reminding myself

583
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:22,560
of is like okay a year away from everything and you're kind of thrust back into this.

584
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:28,800
Which Jermaine did take good advantage of. He gave a good account of himself for sure.

585
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:32,400
Yeah that was that fight I think people kind of shunned it because Loma didn't do as good

586
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:36,900
as they wanted him to but I think overall that was a really good fight. It was. I guess

587
01:00:36,900 --> 01:00:44,760
they were like expecting the typical matrix bullshit. Yeah for sure which maybe wasn't

588
01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:51,320
realistic to expect coming from you know a war zone basically. Literal fucking war. Literally.

589
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:56,680
I mean even if he wasn't in combat you can't you know I can't imagine the stress. Yeah

590
01:00:56,680 --> 01:01:02,920
the mental stress. And then oh hey we're gonna fly you back out now and get in a boxing ring

591
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:10,200
you know. That fight with the Hortiz I think was a good kind of like good way for Loma

592
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:14,640
to get his feet wet. Yeah. And praying for Amy. It's a good barometer of like how like

593
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:20,080
are you do you still got it like are you good do you need more time what's up and that but

594
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:27,120
that good performance against Loma Chanko sets up Ortiz to be in into the consideration

595
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:33,680
of higher conversations not necessarily like on obscure on televised undercards or something.

596
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:44,880
He could be in there with Ken Bosos or Isaac Cruz. I think he mops Ken Bosos all day. Excuse

597
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:52,000
me. I'm going to be honest I've only seen Ortiz fight Loma Chanko that's the only fight

598
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:58,000
of him I've seen. So I can't say I can't based off that I feel like Ken Bosos has nothing

599
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:05,640
better to offer than that. Then I think I did. Well Ken Bosos is sort of he's so limited

600
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:11,080
as a as a boxer is like a certain style that someone needs to come at him with in order

601
01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:17,320
for him to really excel. And I feel like Jemaine could he could keep that fight long range

602
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:23,480
enough never let Ken Bosos really get into that sweet spot where he wants to throw that

603
01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:30,080
kind of overhand right. And you know that's a fight I could easily see him getting you

604
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:36,000
know a total landslide in the punch count by the end of it. Yeah I think Ken Bosos thrives

605
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:41,280
like in the pocket to exchange but from a distance Ken Bosos is pretty limited as we

606
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:48,560
saw Hany do that to him. So with this keeping Jemaine Ortiz in one slot you guys were talking

607
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:53,920
about keeping it like keeping at range as his means of thriving. How does that work

608
01:02:53,920 --> 01:03:01,160
against Isaac Cruz? Relentless. I'm not going to throw Frank Martin in. I honestly think

609
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:08,160
Frank Martin would spark him in like four maybe five. We're talking Isaac Cruz versus

610
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:14,200
Ken Bosos. Jemaine Ortiz. See that's hard to call because I don't know if we've ever

611
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:20,400
seen any we've never seen him respond to that pressure. Yeah. And I don't know I mean I'm

612
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:24,400
with you I haven't seen him pass the Loma fight so it's. We'd have to do a little bit

613
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:33,480
more. Watch the tape. Watch a little more tape. Yeah I agree that won't be hard to call.

614
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:38,620
I guess I'll just come down to like when is he going to crack from the pressure if he

615
01:03:38,620 --> 01:03:46,400
cracks. Too many unknowns. All right let's move up to 140. The names that I have here.

616
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:53,360
Exciting one. The names I have here are Mario Barrios, Teofimo because he's unproven at

617
01:03:53,360 --> 01:04:02,280
140. Ryan Garcia unproven at 140. Gary Antoine Russell, Raleigh Romero unproven at 140 and

618
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:12,320
Jose Ramirez who had he was a unified champion at one point I think. But yeah his flaws were

619
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:20,760
like he was exposed I guess to use the buzzword. So there's a little bit of there's a question

620
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,320
mark on like what tier does he really land in. So he might be a little bit of a wild

621
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:34,280
card there. No Josh Taylor. No he has a belt a proper belt. Proper belt. Gotcha. Not for

622
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:39,760
long but he does have a belt. See I don't know because can Teo really bang with Josh

623
01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:45,960
Taylor. That's why he's here like is he really that proven. I don't know. I think. All right

624
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:52,280
this is gonna be a hot take again but I think we saw Teo's best on the net against Loma.

625
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:59,120
Just gonna throw it out there. Is that the one where everyone said that he started losing

626
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:06,080
round seven on. I don't know I don't necessarily agree with you. I don't know. I don't agree

627
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:11,480
with it either because I think. Well he definitely won the 12th round. Yeah he won the 12th round.

628
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:20,720
I think that might be where it is. It's like the first six and then 12. I think granted

629
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:24,040
I guess we'll go with that Loma was injured. I mean he was injured I guess like with his

630
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:28,200
shoulder or some shit. I don't know the full details. Well then so is Ryan Garcia and that's

631
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:34,720
the only reason Tanks stopped him. Right. Because the injuries are real man. Yeah now we're

632
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:40,680
going off the injuries and stuff. I don't know. I wanted to like Teo really bad but

633
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:44,400
kind of like I said before I think he's the one who bought to his own hype. Yeah I said

634
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:51,600
it before I think the Loma win was the best and the worst thing to happen to his career.

635
01:05:51,600 --> 01:06:02,880
Yeah like we said like the curse passed on to Camboso's. I will say though like out of

636
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:08,200
this list that we're looking at right here I really want to see Teo Fimo versus Ryan

637
01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:16,480
Garcia. Absolutely. The ego. You could sell the egos. The two biggest airheads in the

638
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:25,640
division. Arguably in the sport man. And I say that as like man I was on I felt like

639
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:29,920
I was pretty close to the ground floor with Teo and I thought like I'm looking at a future

640
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:36,400
longtime champion and then you know everything that happened happened. But man like if he

641
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:43,840
ever gets back to that form he had you know I think he's like he's a serious problem for

642
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:50,000
everyone even at you know 140. But I just unless there's like a real shakeup in his

643
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:56,620
camp I think the real X Factor was when he brought in Joey Gamache and he was his primary

644
01:06:56,620 --> 01:07:01,160
trainer not his dad. He's like trying to gas him up and like live vicariously through his

645
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:09,200
son like an actual seasoned veteran trainer. Gamache wasn't he a champion a world champion

646
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:16,040
himself. Yeah he was. Yeah absolutely. I'm surprised he doesn't have better like more

647
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:22,680
high like high profile high caliber boxers in his camp. I think he had Otto Wallin. Dude

648
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:29,040
dad won't allow it. Yeah his dad is like just a stone wall to anything good coming into

649
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:37,200
his life unfortunately. But man because Gamache came on before the the Komi fight and you

650
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:43,480
saw kind of the beginnings of what you you'd eventually see in the Loma fight. You saw

651
01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:49,760
that aggression he had tempered by more there's more of a patience there was more of an emphasis

652
01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:55,980
on timing. Right right. And it was like like he was like oh my god there's something really

653
01:07:55,980 --> 01:08:01,160
special here. And then he goes and beats Loma he gets covered and then they cut Gamache

654
01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:05,280
because they didn't want to pay him while he was out covered. I didn't know no fit fried

655
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:12,840
brain cells. Didn't they also cut his nutritionists. Yeah they did. They cut they stripped down

656
01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:19,720
everything for that camp. Bostes camp. It was just him and his dad. That's fucking ridiculous.

657
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:28,200
Yeah. So Tio has so much like potential and so much talent. It's just the wrong team.

658
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:36,160
Yeah. Wrong circumstances around him. It's unfortunate. But regardless if that Tio is

659
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:42,640
ever it is ever possible to see that version again. I think even this version versus Ryan

660
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:49,480
Garcia like Garcia is defensively deficient enough to make this a really really fun fight.

661
01:08:49,480 --> 01:08:55,040
And like I said previously the build up would just be probably as good as the fight itself.

662
01:08:55,040 --> 01:09:02,760
Dude I want to say that Tio sparks Ryan but I also want to say that Ryan sparks Tio with

663
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:07,360
like a crazy left hook because I mean I mean not Tio's offense is pretty good but I feel

664
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:16,720
like in the Sandor Martin fight it just wasn't there. I'm trying to. He's definitely become

665
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:23,880
more like lackadaisical. Like when he wants to focus on a certain aspect of his game he

666
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:29,600
can execute it but he's not consistent with it. So like round around you see you see him

667
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:36,280
kind of laps or almost like zone out like he's zoning out. So like for these two guys

668
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:44,200
not just where do they where are they actually at 140 but also do the circumstances around

669
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:52,720
them change for the better leading into a higher profile fight. So like with Tio Fimo

670
01:09:52,720 --> 01:10:01,040
it's like can you can you put your dad in the back fucking seat if not the trunk. Bring

671
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:07,640
Gamache back for Ryan Garcia I think he should go back to Renoso now that he's been humbled

672
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:16,800
a little bit like go get yourself a real fucking trainer. That's hard to call honestly for

673
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:23,240
Tio I don't think his dad's ever taking the back seat. I don't think so either. For Garcia

674
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:28,880
it depends how much pride he has like just swallow his pride and be like hey I was wrong

675
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:35,080
I want to come back. Sorry guys like please help me. Yeah but it's it's hard to call for

676
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:40,000
either of them but I think Ryan has a better chance of developing more throughout 140.

677
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:48,560
Alright question marks speaking of question marks Antoine Russell I was there for the

678
01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:57,280
quote unquote stoppage of Postol that was bullshit 100% and then was I want to say hit

679
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:04,600
the fight after that was also a very questionable stoppage if I'm not mistaken. Yeah against

680
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:09,480
Bartholomew. That's right I didn't want to say because I wasn't certain if it was Bartholomew

681
01:11:09,480 --> 01:11:15,280
or not but yeah so like his last two fights have been trash and but he like leading up

682
01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:23,440
to that you know I thought holy shit like it's it's like the intelligence of Gary Russell

683
01:11:23,440 --> 01:11:38,400
Jr. with the aggression of I don't know D.S.C. Cruz. Try to think how this one. So like Antoine

684
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:45,200
let's let's assume Antoine is who he appears to be just great you know like but he's green.

685
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:54,920
How does he weather fellow aggressive type come forward type like Mario Barrios who you

686
01:11:54,920 --> 01:12:03,320
know he can have his face rearranged. That's a tough call I'm not gonna lie that one's

687
01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:14,360
kind of making a real spin a little bit. I would I would I would almost prefer if he

688
01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:22,480
went up against Jose Ramirez first. That's why I was going to Barrios because you know

689
01:12:22,480 --> 01:12:26,720
Ramirez he's he's a veteran he's been in some fights but we've also like there's a pretty

690
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:33,080
clear ceiling on him right and I feel like he's also got a style that would mesh pretty

691
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:41,160
well with Antoine's as in Antoine's gonna have a lot of openings to the batter the guy

692
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:46,560
Ramirez is going to take it and like it's gonna make like you know like a what was it Rocky

693
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:57,240
three. Oh no he's not getting hurt he's getting mad. Correct. Correct. I mean he's not gonna

694
01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:05,800
ever let off his gas but he kind of just yeah floors it until he runs out of gas. So I think

695
01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:10,640
something like that is a more intriguing fight because with Barrios he's he sort of even

696
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:17,120
has some with some real good boxers and I feel like his his overall skill set and kind

697
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:21,760
of the knowledge he's built up is going to be probably a little too much for Russell

698
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:29,560
right now if that were to happen next. Yeah I agree with you on the experience aspect.

699
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:35,640
For Barrios like Ramirez also has good experience but like he hasn't come necessarily come out

700
01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:42,320
on the better end of it like as so meaning like he learned something from it at least

701
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:49,840
it doesn't appear to be to me. That reminds me about Barrios I saw something after the

702
01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:56,880
Garcia fight that Barrios was made to sign like a rehydration clause against tank or

703
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,240
some shit like that. I know it's kind of like off topic but I just remember seeing his name.

704
01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:04,240
I didn't know that. Yeah Barrios was like I just signed a rehydration clause against

705
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:09,040
tank also but never brought it to light. Now I'm thinking like all right I guess not everyone's

706
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:13,920
talking about you know Ryan's rehydration clause and xyz with tank now Barrios is going

707
01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:18,400
to mention it too but if that is true I wonder how the fight would have gone different if

708
01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:25,920
Barrios didn't have a clause if he ever really did. That maybe is a whole nother can of worms

709
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:31,840
because I've been wondering this myself how much do those clauses really hurt you because

710
01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:36,560
you only there's this like this misconception that you have to weigh you can only weigh a

711
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:42,560
maximum of whatever the clause says in the ring but it's only like that morning the next morning

712
01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:47,440
9 a.m. right so you have time to hike like you're gonna probably gain five more pounds just some

713
01:14:47,440 --> 01:14:54,640
water weight. You just don't have overnight as well to do it. That's true so I mean there's a cap but

714
01:14:54,640 --> 01:15:02,240
yeah is it I am curious. It's a slight cap but not as bad as people think it is.

715
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:09,760
Yeah that was just like a side note because I saw an article on that but

716
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:19,920
Barrios versus Romero. I was just gonna say Barrios versus Romero. Two guys that went against tank

717
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:27,840
both obviously lost but I think Barrios honestly I would too he seems he's been around the block

718
01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:33,760
more whereas Romero is kind of a jackass that his mouth got him into the ring with tank more than

719
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:38,800
anything. Yeah it seems like Romero is better with his words than his hands. We'll see how he

720
01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:45,360
fares. I think Romero would genuinely get stopped by everyone else on this list. You think? Yeah

721
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:55,520
Wow. He is such a crude boxer like the only thing he has is his power and he's only been able to land

722
01:15:55,520 --> 01:16:04,880
that power shots on like a really bad competition. And 35 guys. Yeah right. I don't know keep it in a

723
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:11,760
buck I don't know if Ryan Garcia is beating Romero. That's an interesting one right there

724
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:16,320
Ryan Garcia and Romero. There's that whole there's that footage I'm sparring on YouTube

725
01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:22,880
but that was like five six years ago too so they've obviously evolved but I don't keep it a buck I

726
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:32,560
think. I'm not sure if I see Ryan beating Romero. I think Ryan you have to bring in the

727
01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:43,440
the same variables of does he go to a better camp. Reynoso or otherwise. And I don't like Romero I

728
01:16:43,440 --> 01:16:50,720
don't know what variables are there. Yeah what camps do you under Romero? I don't know. I have no idea.

729
01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:59,600
I would be shocked if Ryan Garcia lost to Romero he needs to like quit boxing like

730
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:06,720
I'm being serious like you cannot lose Romero and continue like having any kind of world title

731
01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:12,880
aspiration. Yeah Romero is pretty like an orthodox fighter like he is definitely has a funky ass style

732
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:22,960
and Ryan's just not that good. It's just two of the worst people but it's like which one's the

733
01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:29,840
better worst person. I just feel like Ryan's offense is just I mean he's so like if he was

734
01:17:30,480 --> 01:17:34,880
you know a video game character all his he stacked all his points in offense right

735
01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:40,640
and he's I feel like he has to with all that talent he has to land something before Romero does.

736
01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:48,480
You know I mean I could be wrong but I this I can't even envision that scene

737
01:17:48,480 --> 01:17:55,120
and I would I would genuinely be stunned. I mean was Ryan landing on a tank all that

738
01:17:55,120 --> 01:18:01,280
way he kind of has some good shots on tank. Round one. In the first two rounds before the knockdown

739
01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:05,280
and then in round six he started landing more consistently with that straight right.

740
01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:13,600
Yeah so I mean I don't know I'm gonna throw up Romero and Garcia as like a pure 50-50.

741
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:21,520
Cromwell Gordon Bullitt is Raleigh's trainer. What the fuck is that? I have no idea.

742
01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:30,960
It's Johnny Tuko's gym whatever the fuck that means. The only Tuko I know is uh tight tight tight tight.

743
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:40,880
Such a good show. Yeah I need to watch season six of Better Call Saul. You haven't watched that yet?

744
01:18:40,880 --> 01:18:46,640
I have not. I need to catch up because uh okay buddy chicanery doesn't make sense to me right now.

745
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:55,920
Nobody nobody goes to the shitpost subreddit for the Breaking Bad universe. No

746
01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:01,120
I'm too busy I've been watching Modern Family.

747
01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:12,160
I need to be on your watch list. Do we continue anything more for 140 or do we move up to 47?

748
01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:21,200
I think we covered it pretty well. Yeah Ryan G and Romero's a 50-50 huh. Yeah pure 50-50 in my

749
01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:31,520
opinion. Interesting. All right welterweight here's our six uh Cody Crowley, Royman Villa, uh fucking

750
01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:39,920
I don't know his name's Stan Jonas and Butaev who most recently lost to Stan Jonas, Rashidi Ellis

751
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:50,240
fought uh Romeo Villa not too long ago. And our lord and savior. I have him listed as eggs benedict

752
01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:58,240
but it's uh Connor Ben of course. God bless. So going back to it that Rashidi Ellis fight and uh

753
01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:04,640
Romane uh was it Villa? Yeah that fight was a banger. That was amazing. That was a real good one.

754
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:10,560
I just had that shit in the bag until he gassed. I want to say it's like eight or nine and then Villa

755
01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:16,480
really put it on. Villa was like you got to enter my trap card. Yeah you had.

756
01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:25,680
That was that was a good one but honestly let's just let's let's address the elephant in the room

757
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:36,480
i.e uh eggs benedict. Yeah uh assuming that he's fighting clean he like Stan Jonas and Butaev they

758
01:20:36,480 --> 01:20:45,040
put on a fucking banger. They were the last fight on the undercard of the like the prelims of uh

759
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:54,320
Spence Ugass and they put on a banger. It was really really entertaining. Um it was that sort

760
01:20:54,320 --> 01:21:02,560
of what you would think at a like a 10,000 foot view. It's one of those phone booth like rock'em

761
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:12,160
sock'em robots but like if you're looking at them the way like um traps uh you'd and obviously head

762
01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:23,680
movement but there are ways that you can pin your opponent's hands that uh Stan Jonas was using very

763
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:31,840
effectively. Butaev did to a lesser extent but the way that they were able to like get you were you're

764
01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:36,880
like you make three moves in the right direction but turns out your opponent was doing the same

765
01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:43,760
thing so now you're you have to take like two steps back to reevaluate. It was it was like that

766
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:51,360
Shakur Haney sort of high level high speed chess type of shit except their foreheads are touching

767
01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:57,520
pretty much. That's always a good fight though. Yeah. That always makes a good fight. It does.

768
01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:07,520
So real quick I want to ask is there is there a reason Virgil Ortiz is on this list? Does he have

769
01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:16,240
a belt? No it's not that. It's um so obviously Spence Crawford top two but of the of the coming

770
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:25,440
crop Boots and Virgil like anyone on this list loses to both of them. I cannot think of Virgil

771
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:31,040
he's either going to stop all of them or he's gonna beat the shit out of them for 12 rounds.

772
01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:36,960
Boots is gonna make them look like clowns until he stops them. Even Stan Jonas? Yeah even Stan Jonas.

773
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:44,320
Really? Yeah. Oh okay. I think I think Boots has a better and easier time with Stan Jonas than

774
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:52,640
Virgil does but Virgil still would still beat him. I don't see uh I don't see Virgil or Boots losing

775
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:58,000
to anybody here. Including fucking eat all the eggs you want Connor Ben.

776
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:03,520
Okay that's fair. That's why they didn't go out. Yeah Ken I got one.

777
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:14,160
Whereas these guys have vulnerabilities. Connor Ben his biggest vulnerability being a fucking

778
01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:25,200
moron. So we just talked about two of the guys or two fights that involve guys on this list Villa

779
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:32,160
and Ellis and Stan Jonas and Budiev. What do you all think about taking the winners of those fights

780
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:39,440
and the losers of those fights? So be Ellis versus Stan and Budiev versus Villa. How do we feel about

781
01:23:39,440 --> 01:23:54,320
those fights? I think Stan Jonas probably I'm not gonna well I think he wins. How? That I'm not sure.

782
01:23:55,760 --> 01:24:03,200
Might be a late stoppage because Ellis gases. He obviously was able to withstand pressure very well.

783
01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:10,800
He did it against Royman Villa so he can do it. It's just a matter of if his stamina is enough.

784
01:24:13,440 --> 01:24:19,680
But now will Stan Jonas bring on more pressure than Villa or? He'll bring on smarter pressure I think.

785
01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:25,920
And now that brings on the question of you know is Ellis gonna tire out quicker with that mentally

786
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:34,640
and physically too? Because I guess you think about it like what's smart pressure in a way?

787
01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,160
Like mental pressure or make them think more kind of like how Loma does.

788
01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:46,080
Yeah. Or just like Villa did just full-on brute forcing it. Yeah Villa's like that is that's his mo.

789
01:24:46,080 --> 01:25:00,240
So him versus Budiev like that's a CTE festival. I think the fans definitely win that fight.

790
01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:04,800
Yeah of course. Yeah 100%. If you want brutality then this is the one for you.

791
01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:13,840
Hmm I'm not man I'm really wondering now. I'm really second guessing my certainty on Stan Jonas.

792
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:24,480
I think I would take Ellis. I like Stan but I think in that match if I take Ellis and I think

793
01:25:24,480 --> 01:25:32,400
I would take Budiev against Villa. I would as well on that one. Okay so you take Ellis over Stan Jonas.

794
01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:43,520
Would you take Crowley over Stan Jonas? The same kind of like boxer type? No I think Stan would

795
01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:50,480
would take that one. He went life and death with Abel Ramos but he also really had had a really

796
01:25:50,480 --> 01:26:02,960
really difficult situation at home. So take that to mean what you will. Man I'm really

797
01:26:04,160 --> 01:26:10,000
standing on this Ellis. I'm not sure anymore. It's a tough one. Yeah that's a good one.

798
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:14,800
I'm like my hamster reel just spinning right now kind of trying to think about that.

799
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:21,760
That might be the best fight out of all these six I think. Well let's not you know leave out

800
01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:27,760
Conor Ben here. Are we making omelets? Who's gonna crack these eggs? I like mine scrambled.

801
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:41,120
I think Villa is tailor-made for a guy like Conor Ben. 100%. Budiev to a lesser degree

802
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:49,040
but still probably gets the win there. Stan Jonas is a good question mark. That'll be a good fight

803
01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:58,640
I think. Speaking of our Lord and Savior Conor Ben I saw them. I don't know if you guys saw it too

804
01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:06,960
but like him and Tank are beefing. It's a very odd beef. It's like two classes like just different

805
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:13,120
and now I thought about it. I was like Ben versus Tank you know at what weird weight could they do

806
01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:20,000
that at? Well here's the weight they could do that. They could do it fully at 147 pounds if

807
01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:26,240
Ben somehow gets his hands on like the WA regular belt or something like that

808
01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:32,240
and then Tank could say he won a belt in another weight class. Oh man. That's how that's the move.

809
01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:39,920
I think Conor Ben would just take his head off. You think so? I don't know if Conor Ben can punch

810
01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:48,000
that low. I don't know. That's a tough fight to call because I know Conor not that I know but like

811
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:52,560
I'm pretty sure Conor Ben would just brute force into a Tank and try to take his head off. Try to

812
01:27:52,560 --> 01:28:00,240
bully him? And if he lands like it could be a good fight. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

813
01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:04,480
If he lands like it could be like you know Christmas for Tank lights out.

814
01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:14,160
That's true because Ben he's campaigned above 154 pounds too so he's kind of a huge

815
01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:20,800
welterweight isn't he? Maybe I'm just giving you know Ben too much credit because like I like his

816
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:31,040
dad. You say a huge 140. My normal thinking is to say like a meaty or beefy but I wanted to say

817
01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:42,400
eggy for Conor Ben. Everyone's laughing. All right so we had this one with Ellis kind of being

818
01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:52,240
of these of this crop the the slickest most slick technical type but what about Ellis Ben uh

819
01:28:52,240 --> 01:29:00,640
Benedict Ellis versus Ben and then Crowley versus Ben. Oh because Crowley's a bit more

820
01:29:00,640 --> 01:29:08,000
hittable even before his like his family tragedies. That's a tough one to call.

821
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:14,000
I think Crowley and Ben would be easier to call. Crowley and Ben is definitely the fight to make

822
01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:20,320
because I think they're both. They have the third like similar yeah similar level of profile.

823
01:29:21,440 --> 01:29:26,480
And they'll want to do more or less the same thing so stylistically they mesh pretty well

824
01:29:26,480 --> 01:29:33,840
or at least Crowley he's used his last two fights have been uh you know drawn out kind of slugfest.

825
01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:37,280
Rashidi and Ben though.

826
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:43,920
Speedy Rashidi. That that's doesn't question mark. I don't know like

827
01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:51,360
what if Ben catches like Rashidi like what happens then or she's gonna box his head off all night.

828
01:29:51,360 --> 01:30:01,280
Ben catches like Rashidi like what happens then or she's gonna box his head off all night.

829
01:30:01,280 --> 01:30:08,640
Yes that's what he that he's can do that he can. Right. It's the matter of like sustainability.

830
01:30:11,680 --> 01:30:17,440
This could be a Lara versus uh what's his face the Englishman.

831
01:30:17,440 --> 01:30:19,760
Um.

832
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:29,680
Versus Wood. Oh that Lara. Those situations where he just he's he's getting kind of boxed the whole

833
01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:33,920
night and then he just gets caught with one punch and it's over. I was thinking of the other Lara.

834
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:39,200
I was like when did Arislandi Lara fight a British person. That's what I was thinking too like the

835
01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:50,640
fucking the error 404k in my head. I'm pretty sure he has some fought a British person. I I'll see you know what I'm gonna go with Rashidi on this one against Ben. I'm gonna go Rashidi.

836
01:30:54,160 --> 01:31:01,680
Yeah I think I would as well. I yeah I think so. Ben if his cardio keeps up it doesn't get gassed.

837
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:06,400
Um because we know Ben's gonna go with the same type of pressure that uh Villa did so

838
01:31:06,400 --> 01:31:15,040
if Rashidi can either just get Ben out early because I mean we don't really know how durable Ben is either. He's never really been like cracked too hard. No egg pun intended.

839
01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:21,840
No no no egg pun absolutely intended. Egg pun intended yeah. I mean either way we just

840
01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:24,640
there's still some questions about Ben that we don't know.

841
01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:42,640
I wouldn't put it up to I wouldn't think Rashidi would stop Connor Ben. Um if the gas tank holds up then yeah it could be a close but clear sort of sweep.

842
01:31:43,920 --> 01:31:50,960
Crowley get I think he would get touched a bit too much by Connor Ben and it would be

843
01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:57,120
it would spell the end for him later not so much sooner like his other opponents have.

844
01:32:03,280 --> 01:32:06,640
I'm gonna go with Rashidi though. That's my final take on that one.

845
01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:09,360
I'm gonna go with Rashidi on against Connor Ben as well.

846
01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:18,560
That will as well yeah that's so does Rashidi beat everybody on this list?

847
01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:25,920
Because now I get a rematch with Villa. If he beats Stan he probably does.

848
01:32:27,680 --> 01:32:34,880
If he can beat Stan Jonas. Crowley's interesting fight. Crowley would be tough but I think that's a winnable fight.

849
01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:44,720
To see how with like him being more of a technician he's probably been matched with a lot more boxer puncher like pressure puncher types.

850
01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:49,920
So how he handles a more tech more of a technician like Crowley that would be interesting.

851
01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:57,840
It's like a what like Mayweather didn't really fight any technicians in the latter half of his career.

852
01:32:57,840 --> 01:33:08,240
Somebody I don't remember his name but in discord pops in like every couple of months to say that Canelo won't fight a black fighter ever.

853
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:20,160
Wait who is this? That's RGF's bit isn't it? No it's LZ that's what it is.

854
01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:34,560
LZ yeah he stands hard for Andre saying that Canelo won't fight a black fighter especially not Andre.

855
01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:48,320
Can we get him a GoFundMe for like mental health? It's funny in general whenever there's a lot of you know grays in the chat.

856
01:33:48,320 --> 01:34:02,560
Because they bite they always bite they can't help themselves but it just like off days it's like Tuesday afternoon bro stop like you don't have to commit to the bit right now.

857
01:34:02,560 --> 01:34:11,600
You can just be a person right now it's fine. So it gets it gets a little stale when it doesn't when he's relentless.

858
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:29,520
So if that's the case then Connor Ben will never fight it well he'll never fight a black fighter.

859
01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:36,480
He's got he's trying to avoid a skilled technician like Rashidi Ellis.

860
01:34:36,480 --> 01:34:50,160
Alright no matter what matchup you put these six guys in whatever iteration of them you want.

861
01:34:52,320 --> 01:35:00,240
And about fights yeah absolutely but I want to say round four to six.

862
01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:05,280
You'll hear Boots's music and he's running to the ring with a steel chair.

863
01:35:06,480 --> 01:35:10,720
He beats them all it's easy.

864
01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:16,160
Where's where's the Crawford in all this?

865
01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:27,120
Crawford and Spencer fighting on top of hell in a cell and Crawford's gonna get thrown 16 feet through the announcer's table.

866
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:40,480
And then Ben jumps up with the chair hits Spencer over the back of the head and then Ben's Connor Ben's your champion now.

867
01:35:43,280 --> 01:35:45,840
It's like the nightmare long rotation.

868
01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:49,520
Yeah it is man I can do that shit all day.

869
01:35:49,520 --> 01:35:57,120
Hold on a second okay now some just some quicks some quick points before we get out of here.

870
01:35:57,120 --> 01:36:02,240
We already talked about in the previous episode that we released we talked about these fights but

871
01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:09,280
Johnny Beck fucking last name versus Steven Butler the champion versus.

872
01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:22,640
It's something that it started with on ultimate fucking casual where like I honestly don't look up how to pronounce these names.

873
01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:29,280
I don't and so I'm reading down the list and I get to one I'm like oh fuck I don't know how to say this.

874
01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:31,920
So this is definitely an old fuck name.

875
01:36:31,920 --> 01:36:43,120
Yeah it's uh Johnny Beck last name the WBO champion at 160 versus ranked 6. WBO rankings are garbage so that's probably gonna be an easy night.

876
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:51,120
Jason Maloney versus Vincent Astrolavio 1 and 2 for the vacant WBO bantamweight.

877
01:36:51,120 --> 01:36:54,320
Dude that's kind of a fire last name Astrolavio it's pretty fire.

878
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,640
Um RGF calls it a space pussy.

879
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:00,560
Astrolav oh god.

880
01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:04,160
Yeah I got there in the end.

881
01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:07,200
You got me.

882
01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:13,520
Yep that's uh that was a good one like I was definitely taken aback when I first heard it as well.

883
01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:15,840
That is only an RGF comment too.

884
01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:23,120
Anything any uh comments on either of those two?

885
01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:25,840
Baloney.

886
01:37:25,840 --> 01:37:33,120
I'll be honest I don't really follow them all that much to have any comments on those.

887
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:36,000
Will I watch? Of course.

888
01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:37,440
Yeah same.

889
01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:46,880
I'll just say I hope Jannabek wins. I know he's not I know realistically speaking he's not that good but I want him to be good.

890
01:37:47,680 --> 01:37:50,800
I want Jannabek to become good overnight so.

891
01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:55,040
160 is pretty light so like the field's pretty clear.

892
01:37:55,040 --> 01:37:59,040
Right but as soon as like someone with actual like.

893
01:37:59,920 --> 01:38:00,720
Jermell Charlo.

894
01:38:01,920 --> 01:38:04,720
Yeah I mean if he ever came back he'd wipe the floor with him.

895
01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:06,960
No Jermell moves up to 60.

896
01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:13,040
Oh right right yeah that would have been he'd be coming up pretty quick.

897
01:38:13,040 --> 01:38:21,680
Uh okay one more on May 13th as well in Vegas Rolando Romero who we talked about versus Ismael Barroso.

898
01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:27,680
This is ranked 5 and 1 respectively for the WBA interim 140 title.

899
01:38:29,040 --> 01:38:35,440
Barroso for being ranked number one like this is probably the first time I've heard about him.

900
01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:38,000
To me that's pretty telling.

901
01:38:38,000 --> 01:38:42,400
Yeah he's not a very popular name it seems like because I had to look him up before.

902
01:38:42,400 --> 01:38:45,200
Like when I saw Rolando in my fight I was like who the fuck is this guy.

903
01:38:46,320 --> 01:38:49,280
He also looks very unfortunate in his box track photo.

904
01:38:51,280 --> 01:38:58,640
Yeah RGF pointed it out and was like man what are they doing to you. Look how they massacred my boy.

905
01:39:01,440 --> 01:39:02,240
Broke.

906
01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:02,720
Yeah.

907
01:39:02,720 --> 01:39:10,480
Oh my god.

908
01:39:10,480 --> 01:39:12,560
That is an unfortunate photo.

909
01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:14,800
Unfortunate.

910
01:39:15,520 --> 01:39:16,640
Oh my lord.

911
01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:17,760
Yeah pretty bad.

912
01:39:18,320 --> 01:39:19,920
Wait he's 40 years old?

913
01:39:19,920 --> 01:39:20,480
Yeah 40.

914
01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:22,240
He looks like 50.

915
01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:24,240
Photo of Barroso?

916
01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:24,960
Yeah.

917
01:39:24,960 --> 01:39:25,920
Yeah it's bad.

918
01:39:25,920 --> 01:39:26,480
It's bad.

919
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:28,960
Oh no.

920
01:39:29,440 --> 01:39:30,320
He's pretty rough.

921
01:39:30,320 --> 01:39:30,820
RGF.

922
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:35,280
While you look that up let's move down real quick.

923
01:39:35,280 --> 01:39:39,680
May 17th Wednesday it's a Pro Box Wednesday Night Fights card.

924
01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:43,760
Those are usually pretty fun so I recommend to anyone listening to check it out.

925
01:39:43,760 --> 01:39:48,160
It's only like two dollars a month or like 20 bucks for the year.

926
01:39:48,160 --> 01:39:50,160
It's worth it I'm telling you.

927
01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:50,720
Oh fuck yeah.

928
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:59,280
Uh okay and May 20th in Dublin Ireland's Katie Taylor the women's lightweight undisputed

929
01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:06,160
champion takes on the women's 140 undisputed champion Chantal Cameron and Cecilia Breckes

930
01:40:07,200 --> 01:40:12,720
has not retired and is fighting for the 154 WBA title against Terry Harper.

931
01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:22,400
The meat of that weekend will be at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Nevada Devin Haney the

932
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:34,880
undisputed 135 champ versus Vasyl Lomachenko I stopped to look these up in the IBF WBA WBC WBO

933
01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:40,800
he is ranked third third first and first respectively so he's not they're not just

934
01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:42,000
putting him in because he's a name.

935
01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:46,640
Let's talk about it.

936
01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:47,680
Yeah go ahead.

937
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:49,840
What do you what do you got to say what do you want to say?

938
01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:52,320
What did you pick a team on uh on discord?

939
01:40:53,120 --> 01:40:54,480
Oh there are teams on it already?

940
01:40:54,480 --> 01:40:54,720
Yeah.

941
01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:55,360
Let me check.

942
01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:57,280
Haney Stans and Bro Machenko.

943
01:40:58,080 --> 01:41:02,160
I'm gonna uh well that's gonna answer my question here but honestly I'm going Bro

944
01:41:02,160 --> 01:41:03,120
Machenko on this one.

945
01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:03,840
Bro Machenko.

946
01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:05,040
Yeah let's go.

947
01:41:06,480 --> 01:41:11,280
The team yeah I a lot of people are counting Devin out that's pretty wild.

948
01:41:12,240 --> 01:41:17,920
And I'll tell you why this is my take on it I just don't think he's experienced enough like

949
01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:24,720
there's still questions answered about Devin Haney like okay he's got the skill but is his

950
01:41:24,720 --> 01:41:25,840
power there?

951
01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:26,160
No.

952
01:41:26,160 --> 01:41:30,160
Can you really can't take a punch that well we saw a washed up on Naras Rockham.

953
01:41:30,160 --> 01:41:30,480
Yeah.

954
01:41:30,480 --> 01:41:35,600
And he held on for dear life and now we know Loma is not really a power puncher by any means but

955
01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:38,000
that pressure as well like.

956
01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:39,840
He'll almost go ahead.

957
01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:40,560
Go ahead.

958
01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:44,960
If he gets he's if his agility is still there he'll get you out of position enough to catch

959
01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,760
you clean plenty of times that it'll add up.

960
01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:56,400
Exactly but that and also Loma likes to fight dirty in the pocket so I just don't know like

961
01:41:56,400 --> 01:42:01,200
Haney likes to tie up Loma likes to fight dirty in the pocket so I feel like it's just tailor

962
01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:02,560
made for Loma in a way.

963
01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:06,800
I may be just being biased as well but I'm having a Bro Machenko on this one.

964
01:42:09,040 --> 01:42:14,240
I agree uh with that a lot and I think my only question in this fight is what kind of

965
01:42:14,240 --> 01:42:20,480
Loma are we seeing because if it's the Loma that showed up against Ortiz and I think unfortunately

966
01:42:20,480 --> 01:42:29,600
I have to pick uh Haney but I do think that that's not what Loma all Loma can be going

967
01:42:29,600 --> 01:42:29,920
forward.

968
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:39,840
I do think being in boxing uh for a couple more camps since you know training more uh kind of

969
01:42:39,840 --> 01:42:44,080
getting back into his rhythm getting back into fighting shape I think that we're going to see

970
01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:47,600
something closer to you know the Loma we're used to.

971
01:42:48,720 --> 01:42:55,600
Even if he's not fully back I think he gives Haney a lot of stylistic problems and I think

972
01:42:55,600 --> 01:43:00,080
in the clinch he's very good at you know you see some of these highlights where he someone

973
01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:04,800
clinches him and he's able to wiggle out of there and as he's getting out he'll throw an overhand

974
01:43:05,360 --> 01:43:09,600
and you know get the guy off guard and that is his opportunity to jump back inside and

975
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:11,680
start something else and

976
01:43:11,680 --> 01:43:16,000
I just don't know how Haney's gonna respond to that I feel like he's kind of got his one way to win.

977
01:43:16,960 --> 01:43:22,240
That's what I'm saying I feel like Haney's just too unexperienced for this kind of a fight and

978
01:43:22,240 --> 01:43:27,360
this is kind of I hate to say it but like also another stars aligned moment where Haney beat

979
01:43:27,360 --> 01:43:30,720
Kambosas not so much stars aligned we know Haney was gonna kind of beat Kambosas but

980
01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:36,240
stars line that sense of like all right Kambosas is a shit champ let me go beat him and become

981
01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:36,640
champ.

982
01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:42,320
Right and he's almost kind of I mean he was kind of on his own hype before that but now he's sort

983
01:43:42,320 --> 01:43:49,360
of like now that he's got all the belts he's like you know calling out Tank and you know talking

984
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:54,160
trash with Ryan Garcia and it's like I don't know if you want to be talking to those guys.

985
01:43:54,160 --> 01:43:57,840
I'm not sure if Tank's the right one for you to be.

986
01:43:57,840 --> 01:44:02,880
But that's what I'm saying like is Haney gonna be another case of these guys at 35?

987
01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:08,320
Who just bought into their own hype?

988
01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:12,640
Um one can only hope.

989
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:18,480
It would be interesting to see if the field clears a little more at 135.

990
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:27,680
Um is Tank Shakur is that gonna be the the ultimate boss battle?

991
01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:34,720
I think I think it is already anyway Devin Haney notwithstanding.

992
01:44:37,520 --> 01:44:44,080
Tank and Shakur that'll be a good fight but who do we what do we have for that one like how's it go?

993
01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:48,080
Tank sparks him in the first 30 seconds.

994
01:44:49,520 --> 01:44:50,640
That's it done.

995
01:44:50,640 --> 01:44:54,800
Done the fight's over like I'm glad thank you all for your 74.99.

996
01:44:54,800 --> 01:44:59,040
Oh dude I hope not that's a little pricey.

997
01:44:59,040 --> 01:45:01,120
I hope so I hope not as well.

998
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:07,840
Yeah I don't I don't know man but I mean just yeah going back to it I'm gonna put my chips on

999
01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:13,280
Bermachenko I just don't think Haney has the experience or the power to keep Loma off him

1000
01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:18,960
and I mean for being honest Loma seems pretty durable like yeah he did kind of get mauled by

1001
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:22,560
TFMO not mauled I shouldn't say that he took some punches from Lopez.

1002
01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:30,240
Because Jaime got him a good Jaime Jaime got him a good time and he did get mauled by Salido.

1003
01:45:31,280 --> 01:45:32,560
Yeah on his nuts for sure.

1004
01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:39,440
Definitely having no kids or whatever but I don't know I'm just gonna go up Bermachenko.

1005
01:45:39,440 --> 01:45:44,400
The experience is there um they all say like his age gonna catch up to him but

1006
01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:48,480
if we think about it Loma was in shape like all year round constantly training so

1007
01:45:48,480 --> 01:45:51,760
how much that really affected him by age if he's gonna stay always in shape.

1008
01:45:52,400 --> 01:45:57,360
He hit up Tom Brady for his recipe to the youth the family.

1009
01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:05,040
And he is also a pro with a pretty short like you know he spent a lot of his time in the

1010
01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:10,640
amateurs right he's only got what 15 pro fights so he's he's older but he doesn't have like

1011
01:46:10,640 --> 01:46:17,200
the way crazy ring by right he's not been in like a lot of wars either so he's not he's not got

1012
01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:21,760
the ring where that you know someone his age might in another weight class.

1013
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:33,200
Question on this if Loma chenko loses what will be the excuse that everyone's gonna start making

1014
01:46:33,200 --> 01:46:38,880
because anytime every time Loma chenko is lost there's always an excuse.

1015
01:46:40,640 --> 01:46:41,840
What was the Salido?

1016
01:46:41,840 --> 01:46:42,800
Bo's his ace.

1017
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:48,960
Bo's his ace. Salido was the nuts which like like dude okay if you're getting punched in the nuts

1018
01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:52,480
and the ref's not saying anything you start punching him in the nuts.

1019
01:46:53,600 --> 01:46:57,920
It's really fucking simple if he's hitting you there it must and no one's saying anything

1020
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:04,480
then it must be allowed go for it. Don't give me any of this honorable fucking gentleman bullshit

1021
01:47:04,480 --> 01:47:06,080
Loma chenko's a dickhead.

1022
01:47:08,240 --> 01:47:09,040
Is he really though?

1023
01:47:09,040 --> 01:47:09,840
In the ring yeah.

1024
01:47:09,840 --> 01:47:10,640
That was actually.

1025
01:47:10,640 --> 01:47:12,000
Oh in the ring yeah.

1026
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:16,800
I will say that was the turning point for him going forward he became a much dirtier boxer.

1027
01:47:16,800 --> 01:47:17,280
Yeah.

1028
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:18,640
When you realized that's kind of.

1029
01:47:18,640 --> 01:47:19,200
It's allowed.

1030
01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:20,720
What being a pro is about.

1031
01:47:20,720 --> 01:47:25,760
Position yourself properly where the ref can't necessarily see it and fuck it let him fly.

1032
01:47:25,760 --> 01:47:26,560
That's what happens.

1033
01:47:27,440 --> 01:47:31,440
Yeah because I was only asking because I heard he was a dickhead like outside of boxing too

1034
01:47:31,440 --> 01:47:32,640
but that's a different story.

1035
01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:39,840
Yeah I've heard the same as well that he's when he's interviewed in Ukrainian he's really

1036
01:47:39,840 --> 01:47:42,080
really arrogant.

1037
01:47:44,400 --> 01:47:48,240
But whatever all right so you guys are both going with Loma chenko.

1038
01:47:49,440 --> 01:47:54,240
For me this is has nothing to do this pick has nothing to do with skills.

1039
01:47:54,240 --> 01:47:58,240
I'm going with Devin Haney just because I don't want Loma chenko to be an undisputed champion.

1040
01:47:59,840 --> 01:48:00,160
That's it.

1041
01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:00,720
Fair enough.

1042
01:48:00,720 --> 01:48:03,840
I have no other reason that's not even really a valid one.

1043
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:05,040
So okay.

1044
01:48:05,840 --> 01:48:06,800
Oh go ahead.

1045
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:10,720
I'm sorry I was going to say what if I can make this a little bit of an easier

1046
01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:12,000
pill for you to swallow Leo.

1047
01:48:13,280 --> 01:48:19,680
What if Loma becomes undisputed champion and then fights tank next.

1048
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:20,400
God damn it.

1049
01:48:21,440 --> 01:48:21,680
Yes.

1050
01:48:22,640 --> 01:48:28,880
Can we sacrifice Loma to tanks like rising glory and make tank undisputed if just for one fight

1051
01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:30,560
Loma could be undisputed champ.

1052
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:31,760
Yes okay I'll take it.

1053
01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:35,760
In that case he's all in for it dude.

1054
01:48:35,760 --> 01:48:40,240
My my disdain for Loma chenko is not as good as my love for tank.

1055
01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:42,880
It's not as big.

1056
01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:44,800
All right let's move on.

1057
01:48:44,800 --> 01:48:48,320
Baloney brother number two is fighting he's ranked number two.

1058
01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:50,880
Junto Nakatani ranked one.

1059
01:48:50,880 --> 01:48:53,360
This is the vacant WBO superfly.

1060
01:48:55,680 --> 01:48:59,840
And lastly Oscar Valdez versus Adam Lopez.

1061
01:49:00,560 --> 01:49:03,360
This is a non-title fight 10 rounds.

1062
01:49:03,360 --> 01:49:06,160
I'll be honest I had no idea about how he was even fighting.

1063
01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:11,200
Yeah Valdez I don't know if he's even on like the the pay-per-view portion to be honest with

1064
01:49:11,200 --> 01:49:11,760
you.

1065
01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:16,480
I think he might be the headline of the prelims which is kind of sad.

1066
01:49:18,240 --> 01:49:19,840
Oh man Shakur really ruined his career.

1067
01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:24,720
Yeah no well no Valdez and Reynoso ruined his career.

1068
01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:26,480
True.

1069
01:49:26,480 --> 01:49:27,680
Oh hey he's.

1070
01:49:27,680 --> 01:49:30,000
His career was ruined before he even fought Shakur.

1071
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:31,040
I'm sorry what were you saying.

1072
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:37,600
Oh no he's like oh he's he's he's he's got me at the end of his jab and I don't know what to do.

1073
01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:39,600
Do it for your country.

1074
01:49:40,960 --> 01:49:43,360
Bro I need actual advice here.

1075
01:49:46,480 --> 01:49:50,240

1086
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:23,920
Should I should I be breathing during the rounds too or should I be like holding my

1087
01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:24,960
breath the whole time.

1088
01:50:24,960 --> 01:50:33,280
Where did my hands go I don't know what to do with my hands.

1089
01:50:33,280 --> 01:50:34,240
Oh man.

1090
01:50:35,680 --> 01:50:38,960
Uh okay I think that's gonna do it for us this evening.

1091
01:50:38,960 --> 01:50:44,080
This went on a lot holy shit a lot longer than I thought but still very good.

1092
01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:46,400
Um I'll I would like to do these more.

1093
01:50:47,040 --> 01:50:54,480
I'll have to maybe trim down how many divisions we talk about or cut out the uh preview stuff.

1094
01:50:54,480 --> 01:50:55,200
But oh well.

1095
01:50:56,880 --> 01:50:58,400
That was a good time I enjoyed it.

1096
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:03,600
Yeah this was fun um maybe next week or a week after whatever we'll see.

1097
01:51:04,160 --> 01:51:08,640
Uh real quick the plugs plugs plugs plugs.

1098
01:51:08,640 --> 01:51:14,960
Um actually Oscar Valdez's opponent Adam Lopez did an interview with our good buddy

1099
01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:17,600
Pilot over at Ring Gang Radio.

1100
01:51:17,600 --> 01:51:21,840
So if you want to go listen to that that's where you can find him on any platform.

1101
01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:28,640
Uh let's see I do need to get Asus on the line at some point to talk about Canelo.

1102

And that'll be boxing en español.

1103
01:51:31,760 --> 01:51:35,680
Ultimate fucking casual if you like UFC and MMA.

1104
01:51:36,640 --> 01:51:41,040
I'm the ultimate fucking casual because I don't even know how to say these motherfuckers names.

Um it was great let's do it again soon and um yeah that's pretty much it.

1112
01:52:14,480 --> 01:52:19,840
That's pretty much it. I'm too crazy on my side.

1113
01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:21,840
Yeah good time as always thank you for having me.

1114
01:52:22,880 --> 01:52:26,240
Oh I was expecting a good old Buck Tyson Fury.

1115
01:52:27,120 --> 01:52:28,480
Uh I wanted to leave that for you this time.

1116
01:52:28,480 --> 01:52:29,520
Oh thank you.

I've did you see the name of the task force?

1122
01:52:46,160 --> 01:52:50,080
