- 0:20Oof. What's today, Wednesday? I take my foster
- 0:30kittens back tomorrow. You're going to take the
- 0:33foster kids back tomorrow? Yeah, I got two. Oh,
- 0:37shit. You're taking them back to the foster care?
- 0:39Oh, it's cats. Foster kittens. Sorry. Oh. Oh,
- 0:44these are foster kids. Oh, shit. I never know
- 0:46you have kids. No. God damn. No, I don't know
- 0:52if I got any foster kids. I'm only supposed to
- 0:55hold on to them until they're old enough for
- 0:57their surgeries. Okay. Fire. Yeah. Now my legs
- 1:05can heal up. There you go. I had sent a picture.
- 1:11I think I still have it. I could probably show
- 1:13you. I got scratched. Worst I've ever had. Worst
- 1:21case I've ever had of being used as a scratch
- 1:24post. How many times have you been using the
- 1:26fucking threshold? God damn. A lot. It happens
- 1:29a lot. Damn. That's crazy. Well, yeah, once they
- 1:34get older, they kind of figure out, like, what
- 1:36the difference between pants and not pants are.
- 1:41They don't try to climb up my leg. And their
- 1:45claws are sharp, huh? Oh, my God. They're like
- 1:47little razor blades. Jesus Christ. Yeah. Fuck.
- 1:54Oh, that just gave me the heebie -jeebies. Yeah,
- 1:59like, I took an alcohol wipe, and I just went
- 2:01all over my leg. Oh, my God. I had to, because,
- 2:05like, damn, I can't let myself get infected with
- 2:07their gross little feet. Like, you're gonna get
- 2:10fucking... Rub some salt in there, too, bro.
- 2:12Yeah, lemon juice. Lemon juice, salt, lime juice,
- 2:17everything, dog. Yeah. Maximum pain. Yeah, pain
- 2:24maxing. That's what they call it these days.
- 2:26Is that what the kids are calling it, pain maxing?
- 2:30I just made that shit up on the spot. Oh, well,
- 2:32you had me going. That's probably a thing they
- 2:36probably do, too. I don't know. Pain maxing.
- 2:38Make yourself hurt for the sake of doing it?
- 2:42Yeah. You know, that's what the kids are doing,
- 2:44maybe. Could be. This. I sound like Steve McShane
- 2:49right here. You ready to rock? Yeah, whenever
- 2:56you want. All right. Woof. Boxing B -sides. We're
- 3:03back. What? How was Darren Till versus Tony Ferguson?
- 3:08I don't know. We'll talk about it another time,
- 3:10if ever. It was dog shit. It was dog shit. Probably.
- 3:15It probably was. I am Leo. I'm joined by... The
- 3:23one and only Saul. What's up, guys? I'm back.
- 3:29It's just us. And there is quite a bit of boxing
- 3:33to talk about. How much of it is good? I don't
- 3:37know. You be the judge. Starting off, ring four.
- 3:42It's going to be in November. This is a card.
- 3:44This is fucking stacked. Beyond stacked. Let's
- 3:50see. From the bottom, I don't know if this is
- 3:52the actual running order. This is just what I
- 3:54have it listed as. Artur Beterbiev versus Dion
- 3:58Nicholson. I'm not sure who Dion Nicholson is,
- 4:02but... He's American, right? Is he? I'm pretty
- 4:08sure he's American. Yes, he is. He's from Tuscaloosa,
- 4:11Alabama. Oh, damn. Another Alabama fighter? Yeah.
- 4:15I haven't heard of that in a while. Brian Norman
- 4:24Jr. vs. Devin Haney for the WBO welterweight
- 4:26title. I'm not pleased that Devin Haney is getting
- 4:30a title shot, because I don't think he deserves
- 4:32it after his last fight. I mean, I don't know.
- 4:38That fight is... For people that have been listening
- 4:41to podcasts since I've been on, you guys might
- 4:44know that I've kind of been a Brian Norman Jr.
- 4:46blazer. I've been a doomer, so I'm on a full
- 4:51180 on him. Lately. Really? Yeah. What's your
- 4:56opinion on him now? Now, like, to me, well, who
- 5:00are his other, his fellow champs? Mario Barrios,
- 5:05Raleigh. Mario Barrios and Raleigh. I think soon
- 5:08to be. Is that the B .O. idea? Yeah, that's who
- 5:13I'm not sure of. It's probably going to be a
- 5:16Brit. But I am of the mind that he's the best
- 5:20welterweight right now. I understand. Without
- 5:24question. It's unfortunate because Welterweight
- 5:29isn't the best right now. Lewis Crocker and Patty
- 5:37Donovan are 1 -3 in the IBF right now. They've
- 5:42already fought, right? It'll be a rematch, I
- 5:45think, and it'll be the title. That's crazy.
- 5:48Yeah, quite. Regardless, Brian Norman's still
- 5:56the best welterweight. I gotta say, dude, I've
- 6:00been hearing way too much Brian Norman, like,
- 6:02laying recently. I'm not gonna lie. Like what?
- 6:06Just a little too much. That he's, like, fucking,
- 6:10he's, like, one -dimensional. Okay. You know?
- 6:15I'm like, dude, they don't know ball. They don't
- 6:18know ball. That's got, yeah, there's no other.
- 6:22Brian Norman Jr., at least from what I've seen,
- 6:25I mean, he's improved a lot these past couple
- 6:28years. Ever since that Boca Chica fight, I've
- 6:31seen interviews, too, where apparently, I guess,
- 6:33his hand was injured, and then he got surgery
- 6:36on it. That's what he said. Have you saw that,
- 6:41Leo? No, I haven't, but it sounds like he's been,
- 6:43if that's the case, then he's definitely improved.
- 6:47Yeah, because he's been getting, he's been on
- 6:49a knockout streak ever since. Knocked out Giovanni
- 6:51Santillan. Knocked out Cuevas. Was it Cuevas
- 6:55or Cuevas? Cuevas. No, David, Cuevas. Cuevas.
- 7:01And then, what's it called? Jen Psaki. And potentially
- 7:07knockout of the year. Wait, Lil, can you pause
- 7:10real quick? I got to take a call real quick.
- 7:11Yeah. Regarding Brian Roman Jr., he knocked out
- 7:14Jen Psaki and potentially what is to be fight
- 7:17of the year or knockout of the year. Absolutely.
- 7:20And Jason Saki, he was a ranked opponent, right?
- 7:22He was ranked number five? He was a top -rated
- 7:26opponent, yes. Do you remember what number he
- 7:30was or no? Not off the top of my head. Okay.
- 7:34Well, either way, he was a top -rated ranked
- 7:37opponent. And look what by Norma Judin. We also
- 7:41know that Devin Haney has a chin. And another
- 7:44two, I don't want to underestimate Devin Haney.
- 7:46I know there's been a lot of Devin Haney slander.
- 7:49Also, A little bit for me as well. I can't lie.
- 7:51I've slandered Devin Haney's name. But that man
- 7:54can still, he's a good boxer. You know, he's
- 7:57got a jab. He can move. So it really depends
- 8:01on how big the ring is and how much Devin Haney
- 8:06is going to run that night. That's just how it's
- 8:10going to be. I think Brian Norman Jr. takes that
- 8:13fight, and he wins. With a power thing like Norman,
- 8:16though, Devin Haney's going to be on his bike.
- 8:19I don't think there's any doubt about it. That's
- 8:22my thing. He would be dumb not to be on his bike.
- 8:24If he fights in the pocket, that would be beautiful.
- 8:28If he fights in the pocket and wins, oh my lord.
- 8:31Give Devin Haney the win, no doubt about it.
- 8:33But, I mean, this man is not Shakur. I was about
- 8:37to say, Shakur could do it. He did it with Zepeda.
- 8:43Zepeda's not the same kind of power threat that
- 8:45Norman is. Yeah. I mean, I doubt Shakur would
- 8:48also be in the pocket with fucking Norman. Yeah,
- 8:51absolutely not. Have you seen Norman's back?
- 8:55Have you seen that boy's back? Never. I've only
- 8:58just seen him in the ring. That man, oh my lord.
- 9:02That man's back? Have you ever played Marvel
- 9:05Rivals? Yeah, briefly. He's back. He's just like
- 9:10that boy, fucking Mr. Reed Richards. Mr. Fantastic.
- 9:15That boy Reed Richards. You know? It's fucking
- 9:18huge. His back is ginormous. You know, it looks
- 9:21like a cartoon character is that big. I mean,
- 9:24it's, it's, it's just naturally gifted with power.
- 9:29You know? Yeah. That, that Ryan Norman can, can,
- 9:33he has, he has okay lateral movement. The only
- 9:36thing I would say with Ryan Norman Jr. is that
- 9:38his guard, his guard's a little too leaky. I
- 9:41will say. He gets his, he can get hit. But, That
- 9:47boy can hit for sure. He can hit like a motherfucker.
- 9:52Guaranteed. That's my two cents of binomial.
- 9:56That's my little Glaze Fest. Oh, to continue
- 10:02the Glaze Fest, Bam Rodriguez versus Fernando
- 10:06Martinez. It's going to be a Bam win, hopefully.
- 10:10It's going to be a dangerous, but it's going
- 10:12to be a Bam win. Yeah, it is a dangerous one.
- 10:14Puma does have power. Especially, like, considering
- 10:18relatives of the little guys. But, I don't know,
- 10:21I think Bam's way too smart. 100%. If he knocks
- 10:27out Puma, dude, oh my lord. That's gonna be a
- 10:30field day. Oh, you better put him... If people
- 10:33have him right now, because he's not undisputed
- 10:35or hasn't been, he doesn't make the top four.
- 10:39With, like, Usyk, Bevo, Terrence Crawford, Canelo.
- 10:46Still kind of at the top. I will say that, and
- 10:49again, I think I've said this in the past, I
- 10:51think BAM has some of the best skills in boxing
- 10:54right now. Absolutely. Probably some of the best
- 10:57fundamentals I've seen in the sport currently,
- 11:01you know? He's just got it down, dude. If he
- 11:04was... We always talk about power. If he fought
- 11:08at the same weight class as some of these other
- 11:10fighters, he would destroy them. Just by fundamentals
- 11:13alone, you know? Shanada had an interesting thought
- 11:17experiment, which is whenever we talk about pound
- 11:20for pound, we always think of guys like Bam moving
- 11:23up to compete. But whenever you take the guys,
- 11:26the bigger guys and move them down. Oh, yeah,
- 11:30they wouldn't last. Right. That's why I think
- 11:33Usyk would last. He's really good fundamentally
- 11:36sound. But guys like fucking who? Tyson Fury?
- 11:41Maybe, you know, off his head alone, but like.
- 11:44Anthony Joshua wouldn't last. Frickin... Honestly,
- 11:48Zuru wouldn't last. He didn't last that 175.
- 11:50That's why he had to move up. Yeah. You know?
- 11:54I don't know. There's a lot of guys that wouldn't
- 11:56last if they moved down. Speaking of fundamentally
- 12:03sound, Abdullah Mason versus Sam Noakes. Oh,
- 12:08Lord. More delays. Yep. That's gonna be a...
- 12:14That's going to be a new title right there. Yeah,
- 12:18I'm excited. I'm excited for Abdullah Mason to
- 12:20get his crown. New American champ. As long as
- 12:25he doesn't get knocked out. That man should not
- 12:28get knocked out by Sam Noakes. And if he does,
- 12:30his career is going down the drain. Yeah, because
- 12:33people are already pretty down on him for being
- 12:36leaky. Right? Because he's been knocked out a
- 12:39few times. But yeah, that was a one fight though.
- 12:43Yeah, well. He's improved. I can't think of anything
- 12:52really. That's the most negative thing I could
- 12:54think of to say. Because I can't. I don't see
- 12:57Abdullah Mason losing this. Yeah, but I mean,
- 13:00who knocked down Benavidez? What was his name?
- 13:05Exactly. We don't know his name. That's the thing.
- 13:10The guy he fought was... Well, they can, but
- 13:13he still knocked him down. You know? Yeah, and
- 13:17he said he had the flu or something. And then
- 13:21he rematched him and he beat his ass. Exactly.
- 13:27Man, now I really want to look up who it is,
- 13:29because... I think that was during the Afro -Benefitas
- 13:34days. Pretty sure. Was it Ronald Gabriel? Yeah.
- 13:43Yeah, I think that was him. Yeah. I'm pretty
- 13:46sure that was him. Gabriel is at 175 right now,
- 13:51right? Is he? Because now they can do a... If
- 13:57he's at 175, they can do a trilogy. Yeah, he
- 14:01is at 175 now. They can do a trilogy if they
- 14:05want to. Get that knockdown. Get it back. twice
- 14:10over. Oh, yeah. Hell, yeah. That's funny. No,
- 14:16but back to Bill Mason. I hope he smokes Sandoke.
- 14:21Smokes Noke, you know? Yeah, I got a dunk on
- 14:23Lin. Yeah. Oh, Lord. That's pretty much the main
- 14:27thing. That's my main motivation now. If Bill
- 14:31Mason loses, I'm honestly going to leave that
- 14:33server. I'm done. Boxing, honestly. If Bill Mason
- 14:37loses against Sandoke, it's over for me. Yeah,
- 14:41that would be a really bad, bad omen. Yeah. Give
- 14:46another fucking Brit champion. Oh, Subrail Matias
- 14:51versus Dalton Smith. Now, I heard that this was
- 14:54not final. Yeah, I haven't heard anything about
- 15:00that fight yet on that card specifically. Yeah.
- 15:05It's listed on the bill, but. I don't know. I
- 15:10think Don Smith doesn't deserve that fucking
- 15:13title shot. You know? We'll actually take it
- 15:17back. He's ranked number one, right? Yeah, by
- 15:19the WBC. Yeah. I take it back by the way I said.
- 15:22So if he's ranked number one, then yeah, I'll
- 15:23take it back. He deserves it. But this is a situation
- 15:27where, like, let him have it. You don't belong
- 15:29in the same ring as Subaru Matias, and you're
- 15:32going to find that out pretty quickly. Well,
- 15:35the thing is, again, I don't want to glay the
- 15:37Brit, but it's like, I mean... Super Matias,
- 15:41he is kind of, he lost to Liam Parra, you know?
- 15:43He lost to Liam Parra, so it's kind of like,
- 15:45what kind of Matias is going to get in there,
- 15:48you know? Yeah. The person I want to see him
- 15:51fight is Gary Antoine Russell. I would love that
- 15:54fight. That's why it's never going to happen,
- 15:57because it's such a good fight to make. The thing
- 16:00is that they're not going to make that fight,
- 16:02because if he beats Donald Smith, they're going
- 16:04to have a rematch playoff. I'm pretty sure that's
- 16:07what's going to happen. That's the plan. Got
- 16:10to get the title back into the PBC rotation.
- 16:14Yeah, I mean, they want to, you know. It was
- 16:19really close. Were you with us when we did the
- 16:23race? Yeah, I was there. I was there. I was the
- 16:27kick. Remember? Oh, that's right. For what? Being
- 16:34silly, I don't know. I guess people having a
- 16:37good time. Yeah. But yeah, I mean, that fight
- 16:43was really good. I wouldn't mind seeing that
- 16:45fight at all. But I would much rather see a new
- 16:49fight like Gary Antoine -Russell rather than
- 16:51see a rematch. A unification, too. Yeah, a unification.
- 16:55Against the division moving forward, you know?
- 16:56Yeah, absolutely. Versus the clusterfuck we've
- 17:00been having recently. Yeah, I always say it.
- 17:02I'm a sucker for undisputed. Unification fights,
- 17:06whatever gets us closer to one title holder.
- 17:10That's what I want. That's what I want to see.
- 17:14Yeah, I mean, we'll see what happens, but I'm
- 17:16not sure. I honestly think that it'd be funny
- 17:24if Keyshawn goes up and takes Diopimo's title.
- 17:28You know? Keyshawn fights fucking very well,
- 17:33regardless of the pain you have with him, so
- 17:35I think if Keyshawn moves up, he might just be
- 17:37the champ. They got disputed, in my opinion.
- 17:40You think he can beat Teofimo? If he was on?
- 17:43If Teofimo's on? I'm almost positive he can beat
- 17:47Teofimo. Damn. Because Teofimo's definitely slowed
- 17:52down. He's been knocked down before, too. And
- 17:55I can't say for sure how Keyshawn's power is
- 17:58going to be at 140. But if Keyshawn's power carries
- 18:03up and maybe even improves, Teofimo's done for.
- 18:12You have a different opinion about that? No.
- 18:17I'm not sure. Now that you put it that way, I
- 18:20was thinking Teofimo, if he's on point, I don't
- 18:25know who... There's not a lot of people at 140
- 18:28that I would rate to beat him. But I need to
- 18:32have a look now to see who's there. I don't think
- 18:39Matias beats Teofimo. Pueyo, neither. Who do
- 18:49we have here at the top 10 on BoxRec? We have
- 18:53Matias, Andy Hiraoka, no. You may say, I'm getting
- 18:58a call real quick. Sorry. I think, I think, what
- 19:05were we talking about before? Keyshawn beating
- 19:07Teofimo? Yeah, I think, I think Keyshawn. He
- 19:11beats Teofimo pretty soundly. My opinion. How
- 19:15does Kishan run with the rest of the division?
- 19:19If Teofimo's slowing down, then... I think...
- 19:25I don't know, honestly, because I think his hardest
- 19:29fight is going to be obviously with Gary Antoine
- 19:31Russell. That's my opinion, honestly. Maybe Matias
- 19:37might be a harder fight, too. I think Gary Antoine
- 19:40Russell with the assault that he's going to have
- 19:44on Keyshawn's body and head, you know? Yeah.
- 19:47Wicked. Richardson Hitchens, too. I think Keyshawn
- 19:49kills Richardson Hitchens. Oh, that. I would
- 19:53love for anybody to kill Richardson Hitchens.
- 19:56I mean, I think Richardson Hitchens is... People
- 19:59say he's, you know, this, this, and that, what
- 20:02have you, but, I mean, he's all right. He's pretty
- 20:04good, but he's just not a Demi Haney, you know?
- 20:07I begrudgingly admit that he's good. I just don't
- 20:10like the way he fights. No, I mean, I agree.
- 20:14I don't think he's, you know... How do I explain
- 20:19this? I think he's a champion, like, similar
- 20:22to how... Let me think. Who's a champion? Let's
- 20:27say at 160, right? At 160. Fucking... There's
- 20:34Lenny Lara. Okay? I see. He got a title. He got
- 20:40a title with the IBF. You know? Who did he fight
- 20:49for? Leon Parro. Right? Yeah. He fought Leon
- 20:53Parro for the damn title. I mean, it's fucking
- 20:54Leon Parro. You know? Leon Parro is not horrible,
- 20:59but he's not a good name, you know? Come on.
- 21:03I think a lot of other fighters beat Rich Knitchens.
- 21:08I think T .O .P. would beat Richard Hitchens,
- 21:10actually. I kind of flip -flop on that. Some
- 21:13days I think Hitchens beats T .O .P. I think
- 21:17T .O .P. also has a possibility to beat Richard
- 21:19Hitchens. Man, I got to stew on this one for
- 21:23a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. David Benavidez versus
- 21:32Anthony Yard. For once, finally. David Benavidez
- 21:38is the full champion. No more interims. I think
- 21:45some fuckery might happen. I don't know why.
- 21:48I just feel some fuckery might happen in that
- 21:49fight. Like, for the results for the cards. I
- 21:54just feel like they're going to rob his head.
- 22:00For Anthony Yard? Yeah. I'm just saying, they
- 22:04might. Queensbury and Turkey, they love each
- 22:10other, man. True. I mean, Turkey's definitely
- 22:15not a Heyman guy. He's trying to get Heyman guys
- 22:18over, but I mean, come on. He's got one right
- 22:21now. Yeah. I think the better fight would have
- 22:25obviously been Betterby versus Betterby, you
- 22:31know, but there's still time that could happen
- 22:34where, you know, Yard gets... pulled out for
- 22:36some reason, but I don't know. I just wishful
- 22:38thinking. Yeah, it's surprising that they have
- 22:42them on the same card, but not with each other.
- 22:46It's kind of weird. The thing with Yard is that,
- 22:48I mean, Yard, Yard, you can disagree with me,
- 22:52but Yard molds his fights around the fighters
- 22:54he fights, you know, if that makes any sense.
- 22:56Like, the quality of the fight is depending on
- 22:59the quality of the fighter he's fighting, you
- 23:01know? Like, Lin and Arthur fights, they're redukey.
- 23:03But it's not with Kovalev. his fight would better
- 23:05be. Oh, Lord. Those are some good -ass fights.
- 23:08So I'm expecting a pretty good fight with this
- 23:10one. You know, he's not going to be on the back
- 23:11foot. That man can... That man will be one to
- 23:15scrap. Yeah, speaking of big backs, Anthony Yard
- 23:19is fucking yoked. Yeah, I bet he's yoked. He's
- 23:24huge. I think... Anything more for Ring 4? No,
- 23:32that's gonna be a good card, you know? Yeah,
- 23:34I'm really excited for this. BetterBeef being
- 23:36added to the undercard at that low as well. Honestly,
- 23:38really surprising to me. Yeah, I'm not sure if
- 23:42that's the right order. I expect that Bam will
- 23:45be lower than BetterBeef. Which is ridiculous.
- 23:49Yes, it is. Really ridiculous. But, you know.
- 23:53It is what it is. Into some recaps. Wednesday,
- 24:01August 20th, No Limit in Australia. It was a
- 24:07really short card. Everything got done pretty
- 24:11quickly. Jazzy Par stops Efasha Kamarudin. Kamarudin,
- 24:18that's how they were saying it, in the fifth.
- 24:21Brock Jarvis of Keith Thurman fame stops Sam
- 24:28Beck in the fourth. Michael Zarafa, really quick
- 24:31knockout in the first round. And new Australian
- 24:37hopeful Nikita Zu retires Lulzim Ismaili in the
- 24:44first, after the first. Interesting, interesting
- 24:49fight. Yeah. Yeah, I'm interested to see how
- 24:56Nikita Zu shapes out because he's still developing.
- 24:59a bit and yeah he's doing really well but uh
- 25:02it'll look bad i will say right he's he's not
- 25:06looking he's not looking bad against but this
- 25:08is all like domestic opposition or domestic level
- 25:10opposition top top level australian fighters
- 25:15aren't even the best that's true you never count
- 25:19an aussie but you know never count out an aussie
- 25:29Friday, August 22nd, MVP, most valuable prospects.
- 25:34I only kept two from the top of the bill. Yoelvis
- 25:39Gomez, majority decision over Edwin Humane Jr.
- 25:44And John Paul Rivera stops Daniel Bailey in the
- 25:48sixth. I wonder how far John Paul Rivera can
- 25:53get. MVP's all in on him. Yeah, they like him
- 26:03a lot. Yeah. Saturday, August 23rd, Queensberry
- 26:09at the Planet Ice in Altrincham in England. Just
- 26:16a few that I kept from the top of the bill. Jack
- 26:18Turner stops Nicholas Muguruza. Muguruza. Muguruza.
- 26:24Damn, I struggled with that. Stops him in six.
- 26:29Zach Miller gets the UD over Leon Woodstock.
- 26:32And Jack Rafferty draws with Mark Chamberlain.
- 26:38I think that was for a title? I don't think it's
- 26:44for a title. Maybe the interim. Maybe. Yeah.
- 26:46Maybe you're right. The interim or final eliminator.
- 26:51I just remember this being for more than I thought
- 26:54it was going in. But. It's alright. It doesn't
- 26:58matter because they draw anyway. Moving to MVP
- 27:05Most Valuable Promotions Fight Night Series.
- 27:14Lucas Badi gets the UD over Roger Gutierrez.
- 27:19We talked about him a bit last week. Abbas Baru
- 27:22gets the UD over Yohannes Taez. Oh, Yoannis.
- 27:29What a disappointing outcome. I don't know. Was
- 27:33this like a writing is on the wall situation?
- 27:35Because nobody knew who Beru was going into this.
- 27:38I think it was just like maybe if I'm trying
- 27:41to think maybe it was a big bud knew who Abbas
- 27:47was. I mean, even if you knew, you know, you
- 27:50look at the records and obviously you're going
- 27:54to go for the... The A -side, you know? He used
- 27:58to have to break his lung. Right. We talked about
- 28:02this on the last podcast. The fact that Baru
- 28:04won, that gives him a shot at the title after
- 28:07Curtis Copper vacates, hopefully. I wonder if
- 28:12they'll elevate him or if he'll have to fight
- 28:14for the full title. They'll probably make him
- 28:17fight boots, honestly. Yeah. I feel like that
- 28:20would be better. I'd much rather see that. But,
- 28:23hey. You never know with Bachman. Yeah, Baru
- 28:29is... He's okay, but I'm not sure how he got
- 28:34himself into the title picture. But given how
- 28:40stacked 154 is, he wasn't long for it anyway.
- 28:44He's like a sitting duck. Yeah. He's there. Yeah,
- 28:53he was just there. That's the best I can describe
- 28:55it. He was just there. There's not much to say
- 28:58about it. I'm the one against MVP hopeful, and
- 29:02he was just there for hopefully Booth to beat
- 29:05up. Headlining, Yankee Rivera draws with Angelina
- 29:15Cordova. Angelina was annoying the ever -loving
- 29:19fuck out of me when he was... Anytime he punched,
- 29:23he'd go like, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, Jesus. It was
- 29:29so fucking difficult to watch. Yeah. Has to scream
- 29:34when he does something. I think this was the
- 29:42WBA flyweight title. Pretty sure. MVP has a title
- 29:49holder here. And it doesn't look like he's going
- 29:53to be keeping them for long. Yeah, I mean, 122?
- 29:59112. Oh, 112. Oh, yeah. Yeah. The MVP's only
- 30:04champion is in the low way to it. Yeah. It's
- 30:09all they got. Yeah. I'm trying to see where he's
- 30:17at. I don't even see him on the top 25 of BoxRec.
- 30:27Oh, there he is, 25. Still, it's pretty goddamn
- 30:31low. That's it, though. That's all we have for
- 30:36the recap. It was pretty light. Sucks to suck,
- 30:41but that's how it goes sometimes. Who wants his
- 30:47other things, man? Yeah, it'll get better. It's
- 30:52starting to get better. Yeah. What do we got
- 30:56coming up, dude? Yeah, it's a good weekend. But

- 33:35Yeah, let's see how good this goes. Yeah, Shishkin's
- 33:38actually a pretty, not a terrible opponent. It's

- 34:52for quite some time for the majority of his career
- 34:56at this point. Cameron Vuong. He's on here, but
- 35:00he's listed TBA. There's absolutely no reason
- 35:03why I picked him and why I started paying attention
- 35:05to him. It's just his name shows up every time.
- 35:08So... Follow him. Yeah, I'm all in. Yeah. Sandy

- 36:23Don't know who Richard Medina is. It's another
- 36:27five -ball time. Another Oscar Valdez decision.
- 36:29All I got to say about that one. Yeah, I mean,
- 36:32at least Valdez is entertaining. He always comes
- 36:36to rumble. So it should at least be an entertaining
- 36:40fight to watch. I understand. If nothing else.
