- 0:57Leave that last podcast. Leave that on the last
- 0:59podcast. That's a legacy. For all intents and
- 1:03purposes, I was under the influence of Joshua's
- 1:08yapping. Yeah. Right, right. Alright guys. Yeah,
- 1:16you were just flowing. You were weaving. It was
- 1:19a fuck up. Yeah, we did get a text. We did get
- 1:23a text on that one from good old Matt saying,
- 1:27Don King is bad. What the hell? Hey, that's rage
- 1:33bait. That's a good way to put it. oh man all
- 1:43right we got a lot to get into so um just really
- 1:45quick extending the olive branch to our fellows
- 1:48over at ultimate effing casuals wherever you're
- 1:51listening to this you can find ultimate effing
- 1:53casuals there too if you're into mma or you're
- 1:57mma curious then this week uh it's fucking really
- 2:01light there's an event on saturday it's not very
- 2:04good so i just wanted to point this one out really
- 2:06quick uh on the 30th It's going to be, that's
- 2:09a Friday. It'll be in the morning, starting around
- 2:12like 5 .30 on the West Coast. In Thailand, it's
- 2:18One Friday Fights. That's like their development
- 2:20prospect hunting series. It's mostly Muay Thai.
- 2:26So if you like boxing and you're like a purist,
- 2:29but maybe you want to try it out, Muay Thai is
- 2:32brutal. There's no grappling allowed. There's
- 2:36no grabbing. The only way that you can clinch,
- 2:39you are actively kneeing each other or elbowing
- 2:42each other. It's the only way you can clinch.
- 2:45So it's a good sampler if you want to try crossing
- 2:50the street a little bit. I like Muay Thai, so
- 2:56I'm always going to promote it the best I can.
- 3:00Fair enough. The highlights I see on Instagram
- 3:02are usually pretty fun. It's good. Shanada was
- 3:06always reticent to try, and then once she did,
- 3:12it was like, wow, what have I been missing? But
- 3:17let's move into our recaps here. Wednesday, May
- 3:2014th, as the Australians are wont to do, they
- 3:23had their fights. It was started around 1 in
- 3:26the morning on the West Coast here. A lot of
- 3:28shit on here, but the only one I really wanted
- 3:29to point out was Sam Goodman. He gets a pretty
- 3:32lame UD over the unknown, unheralded Cesar Vaca.
- 3:39A lot of cuts on Sam Goodman's face. It's unusual.
- 3:44Yeah, it sounds like pretty standard fare for
- 3:47a Sam Goodman event. Standard, Sammy? Yeah. Shrug.
- 3:53Yeah, I just like to point out the people who
- 3:56like the Contenders. Bro wasted a good couple
- 4:00months of Inouye's career in his prime, so shrug.
- 4:04Yeah, fuck San Diego. Saturday, May 17th. There
- 4:09are a few cards on here. None of them are major,
- 4:12but there are a lot of good stuff that happens
- 4:15here. The matchroom one was major. Major outcome.
- 4:20Yeah. So just two leading up to the main event,
- 4:27George Liddard, TKO5 over Aaron Sutton, and Kieran
- 4:33Conway, TKO4 over Jerome Warburton. Shouting
- 4:36those out for Lynn. She's getting onboarded into
- 4:41the familia. Yeah, that looks bad. She's coming
- 4:46on to one of the podcasts? Yeah, it's Boxing
- 4:49Before Dark. She's going to be the... Brit box,
- 4:53Brit slop, fucking expert. Brit slop enjoyer.
- 4:58One day we're going to have him on the show,
- 5:00dude. I'm going to tell you something. He is
- 5:02very, very passionate. I know. I kind of want
- 5:07to go toe -to -toe with her about Berlanga and
- 5:09Shiraz, dude. I don't know if you guys know about
- 5:13the Shiraz Berlanga beef that we have. No, I
- 5:17didn't. I didn't know you had anything going
- 5:19on. Well, there was one day in the server, and
- 5:22you can look it up, where I made the claim that
- 5:26Berlanga was going to kick Shiraz's ass because
- 5:28Shiraz is ass. Shiraz, right? Yeah. Shiraz. Long,
- 5:32like, one -page rant about how Berlanga has done
- 5:39nothing in his career and how Shiraz has done
- 5:42so much in so little time. And it was like, part
- 5:47of it that I said was it was kind of rage bait.
- 5:50To the fans out there, I'm going to tell you
- 5:52right now, I'm praying at least that Berlanga
- 5:54KOs to Roz. And I think he can. Maybe. But yeah,
- 5:59she was really passionate about that. To the
- 6:01point where she made a bet to everybody in the
- 6:03server at that time that if she Roz loses, she'll
- 6:06give $10 to each person in the server. At least
- 6:09that was active. That is very passionate. Holy
- 6:12shit. She should buy us several cases of ramen
- 6:16instead. You might be fucking church of chicken,
- 6:19dude. I'm like, God, are you that passionate,
- 6:22dude? I want to speak to you about some boxing.
- 6:26Like, on the live, on the mic. You know what
- 6:30I mean? Bring it on here one day. I'm looking
- 6:32at their resumes and Hamza doesn't have a whole
- 6:37lot going on here. I'm not sure what... I think
- 6:41it's just like the personal British bias where...
- 6:45Oh, yeah. making a big deal out of tyler denny
- 6:49yeah it's like isaac's canelo bias yeah you guys
- 6:55know you guys know about number two right you
- 6:57guys got of course okay yeah he said he's gonna
- 6:59ko fucking skull sorry you know what say this
- 7:03again on the mic bro that was wild okay you're
- 7:07you're my invincible you're my my kishan bro
- 7:10fair take if you think uh If you hadn't watched
- 7:15Skull before, fair enough take. If you haven't
- 7:20seen Canelo in two years, that's a fair enough
- 7:22take. Skull is shitty enough to get KO'd by Canelo.
- 7:26He just didn't even want to be there to get KO'd.
- 7:31I'm getting rage baited. This isn't even rage
- 7:35bait. Skull fucking stinks. I think there's more
- 7:38to the part of Canelo. No, we already had this
- 7:41discussion. It's just a repeat, bro. This is
- 7:43going to be a repeat. Yeah, this is going to
- 7:45be a rehash. All right. Moving into the main
- 7:48event here. David Allen stops Johnny Fisher in
- 7:52five. Holy crap. Stops. Capital, all letters.
- 7:59Stops. Johnny Fisher. Oh, yeah. Johnny Fisher
- 8:04is the closest he's ever been to an AJ fight
- 8:06at this point. Is this the end of the Bosch?
- 8:12No, he's just the new Dave Allen. Oh, he's taking
- 8:16his place. We talked about this. We've talked
- 8:21about this. Johnny Fisher is going to get put
- 8:23in because he sells tickets like Dave Allen did.
- 8:28Yeah, he's going to be put on the undercards
- 8:30for stuff that's not selling very well. Yeah,
- 8:33like the automatic injection of tickets against
- 8:36like... actually good prospects like if you remember
- 8:40dave allen dave allen's fought guys like italian
- 8:44white and luis ortiz and like like he kind of
- 8:48broke into relevancy when he uh when nick webb
- 8:52was supposed to be good and it turned out he
- 8:54wasn't he's gonna be fighting pretty early right
- 8:58yeah the same for say uh fourth round yeah yeah
- 9:01he's having but it's gonna be that It's going
- 9:05to be that type of up and down where he's the
- 9:07new Dave Allen. Who's Dave Allen now? I don't
- 9:10know. The guy AJ's going to break in half or
- 9:13get well -fied. Two fights away from AJ? Yeah.
- 9:17That's why I said Johnny Fisher's the new Dave
- 9:19Allen. That's why he's two fights away from AJ
- 9:21now. He's two fights away from AJ. Dave Allen's
- 9:24two fights away from Tyson Fury. That's assuming
- 9:27Tyson Fury comes back. He said he's not coming
- 9:30back. Yeah, so he says. So he says. Oh, he said.
- 9:36What could be next for David Allen? Like, legitimately,
- 9:39I know that we're, like, memeing about AJ and
- 9:41stuff. No, like an AJ -AJ and, like, a get -well
- 9:44fight. Because AJ's, like... Oh, he's having
- 9:48surgery and he's not going to be back. There's
- 9:50not much for AJ that is, like, 100 % guaranteed
- 9:55confidence. Can I say something for David Allen?
- 10:00Fire away. I think he would be the perfect fight
- 10:04for Moses Aitaba. No, I think Moses is beyond
- 10:08him. I agree, but also I like Dave Allen. I think
- 10:13we're going to talk about Moses next week or
- 10:15this week? I think that's next. I think it's
- 10:19next week, yeah. Okay, and we'll talk about him
- 10:23more next time. I like Dave Allen too much. Let
- 10:28him cash out with an AJ fight. AJ does need a
- 10:33fight for confidence real bad. I don't think
- 10:37it's debatable, but any dangerous heavyweight
- 10:40probably scares AJ into not fighting his best
- 10:47after what happened with Dubois. You know what?
- 10:53We'll see. If that happens, we'll see. We'll
- 10:56see what happens. I think that Itama's a little
- 11:02bit too early, a little too fresh to be put in
- 11:07with David Allen. Not that he couldn't win. That's
- 11:09not what I mean. But he's still not... The metal
- 11:14isn't hot enough for the David Allen heat, if
- 11:18that makes sense. That makes sense. Yeah. Someone
- 11:23who's a little bit further along, like, what's
- 11:26his name? Fabio Wardley? Yeah. Oh, yeah. That
- 11:31level of guy, I think, is where you want to have
- 11:34David Allen next. Assuming Fabio Wardley gets
- 11:38past Justice Hooney, is it? Yeah. Yeah. Which
- 11:43he should. He should. He totally should. But
- 11:47I'm not going to say he should, because I have...
- 11:49That beef with Lynn, myself. Justice Hooney's
- 11:54gonna win. I don't even really care that much
- 11:57about Justice Hooney, but... I was about to say,
- 12:00Australian heavyweight, like... Yeah. That's
- 12:06it. That's it. Australian heavyweight. For David
- 12:13Allen... Isn't Dillian White coming up? Oh, he
- 12:19actually, I think he beats Dillian Wade. I do
- 12:20too. Not by knockout or anything, but just by
- 12:25a decision where David Allen is somehow the less
- 12:29washed, less fat old man. That would be a pretty
- 12:34alright fight, I guess. Yeah, I think it'd be
- 12:35okay. Battle of the washed? Yeah. I don't think
- 12:41Dave Allen... I think Dave Allen's aged well
- 12:44in terms of he isn't washed because he kind of
- 12:47never was, you know? I agree to disagree, I guess.
- 12:54He never really had a peak. This might be his
- 12:58peak. Career peak doesn't line up with his physical
- 13:03peak. Even when he was in shape, though... He
- 13:11weirdly boxed worse when he was in shape. Like
- 13:16he's got, he's very, very strange. How he like,
- 13:21he's either been in shape and had like nothing.
- 13:26It's like even Lucas Brown pieced him up before
- 13:29he put Lucas Brown away. But like here, I think
- 13:34it might be just be Johnny Fisher making him
- 13:36look good too. But he's displayed some competence
- 13:41lately that he kind of didn't have prior. Murat
- 13:46Gassiev. Yeah, that's some expired stock. White.
- 13:53Yeah, White. I think White. White and then AJ,
- 13:57if AJ still needs that confidence builder. Depending
- 14:02on the turnaround time, because AJ's in surgery
- 14:04and won't be ready until... Around the end of
- 14:08June. That's why you do White. You do White first,
- 14:11and then AJ, he probably, he has surgery, but
- 14:14he also needs time to, like, retrain, basically.
- 14:17Yeah. And rehab, so the timeline would line up.
- 14:21You make White and Allen in, like, July, and
- 14:25then in the late fall, you give AJ the confidence
- 14:29builder of the winter. On, like, a Riyadh car
- 14:33or something? Yeah. Like, AJ just, like, both
- 14:37guys, like, AJ does both guys dirty. But AJ needs
- 14:42that confidence so bad. They could probably do
- 14:46it on the Ben Eubank rematch if they were doing
- 14:48it. Ben Eubank rematch. You put AJ Allen on the
- 14:55Ben Eubank. That would sell. That would actually
- 15:02sell. But, like, oh, boy. How times have changed,
- 15:06man. Chris Eubanks still not fighting any actual
- 15:09world beaters. AJ still fighting. He did fight
- 15:14Conor Benn. Conor Benn is not a world -class
- 15:19opponent, bro. That was a world -class fight.
- 15:22I'm not calling it a world -class opponent. I'm
- 15:23just saying it was a world -class fight. I guess.
- 15:26That fight was better than most of the fights
- 15:30this year. And most of the world class fights
- 15:33this year. This is a slight... That's a negative
- 15:35for this year. Yeah, I guess you could say that.
- 15:39That's a negative for this year. I'm not gonna...
- 15:42No, it's not. Well, you know, there's still been
- 15:46a lot of good fights this year. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 15:51Fair enough. I think it's gotta be unfair to
- 15:53the year itself. It's not like it was during
- 15:55the boxing dark ages of a couple years ago. Yeah,
- 15:59Matchroom Fight Camp, Dark Ages. Those were the
- 16:05days. Those were the days. Those were dark times.
- 16:10I actually didn't mind the trailer cards. They
- 16:12were stupid, but fun. Actually, we're coming
- 16:16up on that time of the year where we're going
- 16:18to be picking our best of the year so far. Yeah.
- 16:23Oh, yeah, yeah. My first award selection. Anything
- 16:30more for David Allen and Johnny Fisher? Welcome
- 16:34to British journeyman status, Fisher. He'll be
- 16:42stuck there until he beats the next Johnny Fisher.
- 16:48The next Rhino? He's the next Rhino. He's the
- 16:53even whiter Rhino. Bosh. Bosh. Big John closed
- 16:59all his Instagram comments down after the loss.
- 17:02Oh, I'm sure he did. He started getting fucking
- 17:05trolled on Instagram. It was hilarious. Good.
- 17:09No, he deserves it. It was hilarious. But he
- 17:13was getting fucking trolled. We'd love to see
- 17:17it. Marv Nation, same day, Thunder Studios. Man,
- 17:25Marv Nation's still around. That's crazy. That's
- 17:28the real headline. They popped up as, like, a
- 17:32joke. How many years ago? Like, they're the BLK
- 17:37Prime of their day, bro. They were a joke. Yeah.
- 17:40And now here they are promoting some of the Vargas
- 17:43kids. It's sad. Fernando Vargas should be, like,
- 17:48you know, probably a golden boy. There's a crazy
- 17:51amount of Vargases. You can't sign them all.
- 17:53Yeah. There's so many of them. Top rank is two
- 17:57out of three with the... Top rank took the good
- 18:00ones. With the Davis ones. Yeah. But Fernando
- 18:05Vargas Jr., the oldest, and I think the largest
- 18:09of the Vargas brothers. He's the least amount
- 18:13of upside. Unfortunately. Yeah. Nothing wrong
- 18:18with him. He's still pretty good. It's just like
- 18:20the other two Vargases are more promising talents.
- 18:24I disagree. I don't like Amato's. I'm not too
- 18:28keen on Amato either. I'm not a big fan of his.
- 18:32I think it goes Amato, Fernando, and Miliano.
- 18:38Miliano, obviously to Miliano. That's funny because
- 18:42he's a lot better than the other two. A lot better.
- 18:47They're both trained by the same guy. All of
- 18:49them are trained by the same guy. Yeah. I feel
- 18:52like it's also just age too at some point. Like,
- 18:55I feel like you can still, like, Amado, at least,
- 18:58like, he's still got four years. He's four years
- 18:59younger than Vargas Jr., so I guess if you treat
- 19:05him like a project guy, you can still work him
- 19:08up. Yeah, he's still climbing up, and he's doing
- 19:12better, like, every time. Like, he's a project
- 19:15guy for sure, but I feel like time's on his side
- 19:18for top rank. He's going to go the route of Lindolfo.
- 19:24You know, he might gain some notoriety a little
- 19:27later on, but I don't think he's going to touch
- 19:30a title at any time, in my opinion. That's a
- 19:36business, sadly. Emiliano's the one. Emiliano
- 19:41is the one, but, I mean, Amato is more deserving
- 19:43of any kind of push than, what's it, Nico Ali
- 19:48-Walsh. Is he still getting pushed? Not that.
- 19:51No, he's done. Finally, they were still pushing
- 19:56him for a while. I can't believe that. I just
- 19:58recently figured out that he was related to Muhammad
- 20:00Ali. I don't believe you. That was the whole
- 20:03marketing. Barely. I can't believe that. Half
- 20:10grandnephew six times removed. You know what?
- 20:14I think if they marketed that, they probably
- 20:16could have made a million money off that dude.
- 20:20They did. That's all they said. No, they didn't,
- 20:22bro. No, they didn't. No, they didn't. I did
- 20:26not hear that one time. That was Tom Frank's
- 20:29whole marketing thing. This is news to me, man.
- 20:32I have no idea where this is. This is news to
- 20:33me. If they marketed Nico Ali Walsh as fucking
- 20:37Muhammad Ali's grandson, dude, that would have
- 20:39been selling stadiums. The issue is that he sucks.
- 20:42The issue is that he sucks really badly. Like,
- 20:45you can't. Like, there's not a shred of that.
- 20:48I'll leave blood in him. I could not believe
- 20:51it. He sucks. He sucks so much. Under the top
- 20:56-ranked protection program, he's 10 -2. Isn't
- 21:00it 10 -2 -1? Because he got that lucky draw.
- 21:04He got that draw, and then it got changed to
- 21:07a no contest because his opponent did some weed.
- 21:09Oh, that doesn't count. That counts as a win
- 21:12for the opponent. Are you kidding me? You handicap
- 21:15yourself like that. Oh, Pauno was smoking weed
- 21:18and got popped for it. So that's, I mean, 10
- 21:21-2 -1 in the top -ranked protection program is
- 21:23crazy. Yeah. He must have not really been that
- 21:26good of a fighter. No, like, because they fed
- 21:29him, like, club fighters exclusively. But, like,
- 21:32not even the, like, not seasoned ones, like,
- 21:35just club fighters. If he was a PBC, he would
- 21:39have gotten a title by now. I guarantee you.
- 21:43I don't dare. I think PBC would have put him
- 21:46with a trainer who can actually train. Yeah.
- 21:49Instead of just the top -ranked gym. You think
- 21:52Fernando Vargas could have beat Niko? Yes. Yeah.
- 21:57A million times, yes. Niko's so bad. Yeah. Niko's
- 22:02so bad. Niko is actually ass. He's so bad. Yeah,
- 22:07he's a commentator now. I really like his commentary.
- 22:12Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised that his commentary
- 22:14is pretty good. He's still growing into himself
- 22:19with it. Moving to 360 promotions. There's only
- 22:27three that I wanted to point out here. Omar Trinidad
- 22:29gets a UD over Alexander Espinosa. Another kind
- 22:35of boring decision for Omar. Nah, he'll get a
- 22:41shot someday. Right. He's got a WBC trinket.
- 22:45He'll work his way up. Especially in featherweight,
- 22:48it's pretty open. Mizuki Hiruta, UD over Carla
- 22:53Marino. WBO super flyweight title was on the
- 22:59line. Not even close. No, one -sided beatdown.
- 23:04Not even close. Mizuki's on the... Collision
- 23:10course with Gabby Fundora. I don't think it goes
- 23:13well for her. For Mizuki, I mean. No, but she'll
- 23:16still be a good opponent for... It would be a
- 23:20good fight. I think it would be a good fight,
- 23:22for sure. The best you can hope is that it's
- 23:25competitive here and we're not just watching
- 23:27Gabby waste away with subpar opposition. It's
- 23:31good that good opponents are coming up the challenge.
- 23:34Is it subpar competition or is it the lack of
- 23:38competition as well? It's both. It's both. Well,
- 23:42the thing is that you want her to fight good
- 23:46opponents, but if she makes them look bad, there's
- 23:49nothing wrong with that. So it's good that there's
- 23:52good opponents coming up. If they don't match
- 23:54up to her, that's fine. The issue is when you
- 23:57run into a Clarissa Shields moment where you
- 24:00don't have good opponents and they're just beneath
- 24:03you. You'd make them look like fools to begin
- 24:05with. Yeah, Clarissa Shields is kind of cooked.
- 24:09No, she has no good competition ever Any like
- 24:15realistic weight class I mean it's better it's
- 24:26better than it used to be it used to be like
- 24:28you'd get to two fighters in the sport period
- 24:31yeah who are any good like here at least it's
- 24:35like Like, the fact that we got Katie Taylor
- 24:38and Amanda Serrano in the same vicinity of weight
- 24:41classes is pretty good. Yeah, lucky. Clarissa
- 24:46Shields in the upper weight classes, hopefully
- 24:47that gets more people in there. And, of course,
- 24:51Gabby Fundura is going to fry people in the lower
- 24:54weight classes. But, again, there's going to
- 24:56be good opponents coming up, which is, like,
- 25:00again, there used to be, like, two good women
- 25:02in the sport, period. And maybe they'd fight
- 25:05each other with one making, like, severe concessions
- 25:08in the weight class department. We'll see what
- 25:10happens with her. Yeah, yeah. Again, at the very
- 25:14least, it's going to be a good fight on paper.
- 25:16Sure. Well, Mizuki is still fun. She's got her
- 25:22fun little ring attire. Does this big reveal
- 25:27every time. It's still pretty enjoyable. What
- 25:32was not? quite as enjoyable. Sergei Bochuk versus
- 25:36Michael Fox. Yeah, Bochuk kind of got away with
- 25:42that one. Yeah, it was a bit of a stinker. A
- 25:45little bit. I'll tell you, it's funny how fast
- 25:49the boxing fans switch up because of the server,
- 25:53dude. It went from, oh my god, Bochuk is must
- 25:56-watch television to he's overrated, he's washed.
- 26:01He's a bum. I don't know about all that. Jesus.
- 26:04I don't know, but that's always how online discourse
- 26:07is, though. That's what I'm saying. I'm just
- 26:10saying how I saw this already. I'm an NBA Twitter
- 26:13fiend. It's the same thing. Seven game series,
- 26:17but one game it's a super team and the other
- 26:19game it's a... Oh, man. They'd lose to college
- 26:24teams. Yeah, like the... Here's the list of WNBA
- 26:29players I'd rather have. That being said, BoJack
- 26:40definitely got away with this one. Michael Fox
- 26:46employed a good game plan. I don't know. It might
- 26:55have been a style thing too, honestly. Yeah.
- 27:01made it kind of boring but you know what i mean
- 27:03i i i just think it's it is one fight dude always
- 27:08had some you know decent fights yeah i don't
- 27:13mind i just think this is way too close than
- 27:16what it should have been yeah of course again
- 27:20one but one bad night but i mean i guess this
- 27:24might be good for bojack overall might convince
- 27:26someone to take him as an opponent I hope so.
- 27:30Get him off of UFC Fight Pass, hopefully. Bo
- 27:33Chuck is low reward, very high risk, but now
- 27:38with this performance being kind of shitty, the
- 27:42risk is definitely down. Not as much risk. It
- 27:47was hard to find that stream, too. I cannot understand
- 27:52this UFC Fight Pass shit. Oh, man, that's just
- 27:59what it is. I love how UFC Fight Pass is part
- 28:03of the UFC. It's Dana White, right? It is. So
- 28:06why the fuck are they trying to do fucking TKO
- 28:08then? Well, they're trying to do that with Turkey
- 28:13Al -Ashiq. Why didn't Turkey buy out UFC Fight
- 28:16Pass itself? Or something? I think it's easier
- 28:23to start your own promotion than to buy out an
- 28:25American promotion. Buying a 360. That one shouldn't
- 28:29be as hard because they're not very big, but
- 28:33still, it would be easier to start your own.
- 28:38I guess. I mean, it's not even a promotion. It's
- 28:42going to be a fucking league, apparently. I don't
- 28:44believe that. It doesn't look like it's going
- 28:47to be much of anything after Turkey seems a little
- 28:49pulled out. Oh, yeah. The drama with Las Vegas.
- 28:55Paris Crawford and Canelo are going to be on
- 28:57Saturday again. Once again. They're going to
- 29:00be competing with the UFC. Oh, well, hopefully.
- 29:03I remember Canelo Kovalev had a nice nap before
- 29:07the fight. Oh, yeah. This fight is going to dominate
- 29:13that weekend for sure. Legendary screenshot.
- 29:18Both of them laying down and chilling. Gloves
- 29:22already on. Yeah. So what... We were talking
- 29:29about low -risk or low -reward, high -risk for
- 29:34Bohochuk. What could be next for him? Honestly,
- 29:38like, any of the... Someone who thinks... Someone
- 29:40who needs to take that jump for a title shot
- 29:43probably takes a fight with Bohochuk now. Just
- 29:46on risk -reward. Not boots. Did you see that
- 29:50Brian Norman rejected... $1 .3 million to fight
- 29:55Boots? No, I didn't. $1 .3 million? I see that.
- 29:58Yeah. They rejected a good deal to fight Boots
- 30:02saying they weren't paying him enough, and I'm
- 30:03like, I mean, I get it. They're overpaying you
- 30:06right now, buddy. Yeah, $1 .3 million is overpaying.
- 30:09Hearn alleges more, but also, like, take that
- 30:12with a grain of salt. How much did Arastadionis
- 30:15make? Probably about the same, honestly. It was
- 30:19a Riaj event. Still, like, a million dollars
- 30:23for Brian Norman is a good deal. Yeah. Have a
- 30:28duck, bro. Like, I get it. You probably want
- 30:32to cash... Like, if you're negotiating with Boots,
- 30:35you definitely want to cash out with a Riage
- 30:36card fight to make it a bid at least worth your
- 30:40time. Because I don't think... I think Boots
- 30:43beats his ass real bad. But, I mean... if we're
- 30:50like that's why that's what i mean that like
- 30:51turkeys ruin this ship because everyone like
- 30:54a cash out would be a cash out should be like
- 30:57a billion dollars for a fighter who isn't on
- 31:00who honestly doesn't sell that good but now we're
- 31:03in the what the where's my 20 million dollar
- 31:06paycheck from turkey when it's like that's what
- 31:10i mean by turkeys ruin the uh the economy of
- 31:15a cash out fights honestly even then I mean,
- 31:20as much as you hate Turkey, bro, at the same
- 31:22time, even if Turkey wasn't involved, I feel
- 31:25like he probably still wouldn't take that fight.
- 31:28He wouldn't take it, but I'm saying, like, it
- 31:31wouldn't be for, you couldn't just say, it is,
- 31:34like, you can't hide behind Turkey Alashik isn't
- 31:37paying me $20 million like she did this other
- 31:40guy. from other people yeah because it like like
- 31:43like the inflation would be like hey maybe uh
- 31:47like you know that that overvaluation would be
- 31:49like hey give me two million instead instead
- 31:51of give me tens of millions of dollars to lose
- 31:55yeah yeah no you're right you're right right
- 32:00it's just the it's just the inflation of the
- 32:04sport here we're like like by and i mean Even
- 32:08with the fact that we got to this point where
- 32:10people are expecting Eddie Hearn to give out
- 32:12even anything above a million, it happened because
- 32:15of Matchroom America. If you remember that era
- 32:18when we were giving Demetrius Andrade and Tevin
- 32:21Farmer $10 million. The good old days. We were
- 32:26giving them millions of dollars to fight Liam
- 32:29Williams and Jono Carroll. I still find that
- 32:34egregious. I still think it's so fucking egregious.
- 32:38That fucking Demetrius, out of all the boxers
- 32:40that they could have given millions of dollars
- 32:41to, it had to be Kevin Farmer and Demetrius.
- 32:43Devin Haney and Demetrius Andrade. Yeah, that
- 32:47was the other one, was Devin Haney. Yeah, like,
- 32:50Devin Haney getting his, like, getting an actual
- 32:53knockout and breaking his hand into, like, 20
- 32:56pieces on a Logan Paul KSI undercard for, like,
- 33:01$2 million. Like, it's ridiculous. And Haney
- 33:04got the dog in him, at least. It's ridiculous.
- 33:07He got that dog in him at the time. Billy Joe
- 33:10Saunders also got paid way too much. Billy Joe
- 33:15Saunders, man. He's a Brit. Lots of guys. He
- 33:19was on Matchroom America. He was on their payroll.
- 33:22So he got paid way too much. Matchroom USA? Yeah,
- 33:25it was the thing when DAZN first broke out into
- 33:28the boxing scene. Leonard Blatnovic. I know Billy
- 33:32Joe Saunders was part of that payroll. That's
- 33:34crazy. He's a Brit guy, but he fought on, like,
- 33:38the Logan Paul undercard. And even then, he's
- 33:40had the Matchroom USA branding. Yeah. It's a
- 33:45lot of, like, that's what I mean. Eddie Hearn
- 33:50has basically gone from blank check to blank
- 33:52check, and it's ruined, like, these fighters
- 33:55that, like, maybe when they're cashing out, they'd
- 33:58see a million bucks. Instead, now everyone makes
- 34:02a million bucks and we're stuck with guys being
- 34:06able to duck fights and price themselves out
- 34:08by asking for 20 million when, like, come on,
- 34:11man, when was the last time you sold above 10
- 34:14,000 pay -per -views? It sounds like you're kind
- 34:16of an inverse... I don't know the fucking word.
- 34:20But you're kind of supporting the Dana White
- 34:22argument. That sounds like it. No, but they should
- 34:25get paid what they're valued. Leo, I think we
- 34:29gotta... Dana White good? No, this isn't Dana
- 34:35White good. Dana White gives these guys scraps.
- 34:39It's not the same. It's not the same. I literally
- 34:43wrote an article about how Dana White's a cancer.
- 34:45Yeah. I have the paper trail. I have the paper
- 34:51trail. I think Dana White's a cancer. But I think
- 34:55people should get paid what they're worth. This
- 34:59doesn't mean pay them $20 million more than what
- 35:02they're worth. And it doesn't mean pay them less
- 35:07than a line cook either. If you sell good, you
- 35:12should get paid for what you sell. If you don't
- 35:15sell good, you should still get paid. But not,
- 35:18like, all the wealth in the world. All jokes
- 35:23aside, you're totally right. You should not be
- 35:25paying $10 million to run around the ring with
- 35:28those emails. Like, the excuse should not be,
- 35:31you are not paying me all the wealth in Fort
- 35:34Knox. The excuse should just be, I don't think
- 35:37I'm ready for this guy. Like, you're just giving
- 35:39guys an excuse. And I hate saying fucking because,
- 35:42honestly, it's Eddie Hearn. There's probably
- 35:44six different terms that probably went right
- 35:47against Brian Norman. You know how promoters
- 35:50always are. I would rather say that they're actually
- 35:54not ready for a fight than say that they weren't
- 35:58paid how much they were worth. You know what
- 36:00I mean? Yeah, because I know, like, I don't want
- 36:05to fight boots for a blank reason is way easier
- 36:08than... You're only paying me $1 .3 million.
- 36:16All right. We've got to keep moving. We've got
- 36:19to keep moving. That was a heavy tangent. It
- 36:22was. But, I mean, if you want to hear the whole
- 36:25thing, you already know where I'm going to tell
- 36:27you to go. Oh, yeah. Support for this episode

- 39:55Friday, May 30th. Matchroom in Guadalajara at
- 40:01the Domo Alcalde. This one's headlined by Manuel
- 40:06Gallegos versus Khalil Coe. This is apparently
- 40:09a rematch. Yes. For a light heavyweight trinket
- 40:13in the WBC. But the real attraction here to me
- 40:19is Murojan Akhmadaliev, a .k .a. MJ, versus Luis
- 40:22Castillo. This should be fun. I'm looking forward
- 40:26to this. That one should be fun. Khalil Coe.
- 40:32I kind of rate Khalil Coe, but, like, he's very
- 40:35much someone who, like, yeah, you met someone
- 40:37your size, finally. Because his career up to
- 40:41now, up to the last loss against Gallegos, was,
- 40:44like, guys who were technically light heavyweights,
- 40:47but definitely undersized. Like... Like, 168ers
- 40:57who definitely moved up or just don't belong.
- 41:01Like, they don't want to cut. Oh, yeah, they
- 41:03don't want to cut. That makes sense. Yeah, like,
- 41:05Bunit Bisla fights, like, near his weight. And
- 41:10you could just see the size difference when he
- 41:12got in the ring with Khalil. Khalil, I'll tell
- 41:16you, man. The Legos is actually his size. For
- 41:19the first couple rounds of that fight, he was
- 41:21fighting pretty good. Khalil. Yeah. But again,
- 41:24someone his own size. He just can't bully this
- 41:27guy, though. Exactly. He's just too small for
- 41:32him. He's a huge 175, but I mean, 175 is already
- 41:39kind of a land of giants anyways. Remember Zerdo
- 41:44175? Apparently. Hey, are you waiting for Bivol?
- 41:51Fight Day Wait was at like 220 for Bivol. Yeah.
- 41:57Like Land of Giants. Yeah, Land of Giants at
- 42:03this point. Anything more for this one before
- 42:11we move on to the other card that's on at the
- 42:14same time? Nope. All right. Golden Boy in Las
- 42:19Vegas. This card's pretty light. This is a lot
- 42:23of prospects. Headline is pretty good, though.
- 42:26Darius Fulgham versus Bektamir Melikuziev, a
- 42:31.k .a. Beck the Bully. Eric Priest in the co
- 42:35-main versus Luis Arias. That's a pretty good
- 42:37fight. Eric Priest is on the come -up. He's pretty
- 42:43solid. I'm not saying he's going to be a world
- 42:45champion or anything, but he's solid. And Luis
- 42:49Arias is a good test. So that should be a good
- 42:52one. But yeah, Darius Fulgham versus Bektamir.
- 42:57Should be all right. Hopefully. I think Bektamir
- 42:59gets it done. Even though he got rocked by Gabe
- 43:04Rosado. Late stage Gabe Rosado. I still rate
- 43:07Beck as a pretty decent opponent. Or a pretty
- 43:11decent fighter. He's a good brother. He's a good...
- 43:13Oh, yeah. That's why it's a good fight. But Beck's
- 43:18a good offensive fighter. But if he doesn't get
- 43:22going, he kind of... He just doesn't get going
- 43:26much. Very limited. Very limited if he can't
- 43:30land his body shots. We'll see what happens to
- 43:34that fight. Yeah. Should be good. And the main
- 43:42reason we are here... Alright, looking good on
- 43:47time. Alright, PVC on Prime at the Michelob Ultra
- 43:50Arena in Las Vegas. Holy shit, this is more information
- 43:54for a PVC card than I usually have. It's a great
- 43:58card. Good PVC card, too. A lot of stuff going
- 44:01on here. And it's free. Oh, that's right. If
- 44:05you have Prime, it's... it's free on prime you
- 44:08should you should you should just have prime
- 44:10to begin with this is in the year of our lord
- 44:142025 like whatever the other faults of amazon
- 44:20as a company prime is a good service to pay for
- 44:23it like it's worth the money yeah it definitely
- 44:25gets me yeah like like just like the fact that
- 44:28you get music streaming uh cheap shipping Invincible.
- 44:34And I think they have a deal where you either
- 44:36get Dash Pass or whatever, like delivery services
- 44:40close to you. Yeah. Really? I'll have to look
- 44:44into it. It's sadly, like, yeah, Amazon is definitely
- 44:49an evil corporation, but at the very least, they
- 44:54give you a service worth your dollar. They're
- 44:57kind of evil. They're still evil. They're an
- 45:01evil corporation for sure. But they're not scamming.
- 45:05They're not scamming you. Prime, please sponsor
- 45:09ProBucks. Well, the ProBucks fights, you can
- 45:12watch on Prime, so. I think ProBucks is good.
- 45:16ProBucks is good, always. Yeah, you actually
- 45:18can. Amazon and Roku, or just on the ProBucks
- 45:21app. Very nice. This is a good PVC card. Any
- 45:32highlights you want to highlight? Yeah, a few
- 45:33coming up from the bottom. Kermel Moten versus
- 45:36Miyamate Mastropa. Rennie Miyamate Mastropa.
- 45:41Another step -up fight? Another one for... I
- 45:44don't know. Is this a step -up fight? No, this
- 45:47is just like a nice... Still a stay -busy. Again,
- 45:52he's a fresh 18 -year -old with seven fights.
- 45:56Seven and oh, yeah. This is a good... Are you
- 45:58using the wrong verbal? I used the wrong wording.
- 46:02I meant like, you know. Keep it stepping. I believe.
- 46:05Rather than step up. Yeah. Yeah, keep it up.
- 46:07I do believe in Kermel, but this is very much
- 46:12we're going to continue putting him in front
- 46:15of a camera while he develops. Yeah. Because
- 46:17he's still easy. Despite his immense talent,
- 46:21he's still a project guy. He can still get better.
- 46:25For you. There's a lot of things you can do.
- 46:27that you think Ruban could make him a star of
- 46:32the future. Yeah. Isaac Lucero versus Luis Valenzuela.
- 46:38I'm not sure who these guys are, to be honest
- 46:40with you. I've seen their names before, but it's
- 46:43two undefeated guys, so that should be fun. Yeah,
- 46:48always fun. The only Hernandez. Versus Kyron
- 46:54Davis. Honestly, this is the one I'm looking
- 46:58forward to the most on the card. No disrespect
- 47:00to Kyron Davis, but Hernandez, Cuban who can
- 47:06punch, never a boring watch. I'm going to be
- 47:10honest, dude. I think this one can go either
- 47:12way. It is very early in Hernandez's pro career,
- 47:19so you're right. It's also 27, which is the Cuban
- 47:2440. The Chiron dude, Chiron, he's not bad. Not
- 47:30bad at all. I think if he wanted to, I think
- 47:33he could take it. I wouldn't count him out if
- 47:36I were you. Oh, no, not counting him out at all.
- 47:40No. Had a draw with Anthony Durrell. Not bad.
- 47:45Got his ass kicked by David Benavidez. That lasted
- 47:48longer than I expected. Yeah, that's to be expected,
- 47:51honestly. And Elijah Garcia, he... That should
- 47:56not have been a split decision. No, that was
- 47:58not a split. He took him to school on that one.
- 48:02He's a good opponent. The Cuban school, the new
- 48:09version of it, the puncher type, like Luis Ortiz,
- 48:13Yuri Orkuskembo, David Morel. Even Lara Ish when
- 48:21he wants to. In the latter stages. Heirs Lady.
- 48:25Heirs Lady Alvarez. It's going to be. Moving
- 48:30up, Jermall Charlo versus Tommy LaManna. Where
- 48:36have I seen Tommy LaManna? If Jermall isn't washed,
- 48:40he kind of wipes out LaManna. Portionally. But
- 48:46Jermall might be very washed, though. That's
- 48:50exactly what I was going to say. I don't know
- 48:52how strongly I feel in saying that he's not washed.
- 48:56How washed is he? I was going to say, he didn't
- 48:59even look good against Montiel or Benavidez Jr.,
- 49:02and that was two and four years ago, respectively.
- 49:05That was kind of funny seeing Benavidez Jr. lose.
- 49:08He looked kind of washed against Benavidez Jr.,
- 49:11so. We'll see. He might be. Might be good. LaMana
- 49:17lost to Jorge Cota, the demon, his name. He got
- 49:24his ass beat by Sebastian Fandora, Jermel Charlo,
- 49:29Jason Rosario, Erickson Lubin. Not a good name.
- 49:36That loss has aged poorly. He lost to Brian Mendoza.
- 49:43who we all know, Bo Hachuk, Tim Su, Fundora,
- 49:47he beat Fundora. Lost to Jesus Ramos. Also has
- 49:53not aged very well. Yeah. Like, if Charlo's washed,
- 49:58it's going to be a very long night. Yeah. Even
- 50:01if La Mana is fragile. But, like, I don't know.
- 50:05Charlo works his best when he's boxing because
- 50:08the stoppages kind of just come when he's boxing.
- 50:11When he tries too hard, he gases. He looks like
- 50:15shit. That's the seventh round. If he goes past
- 50:19seven rounds, he looks bad. No, because he kept
- 50:22his gas with Dervychenko. But he was boxing the
- 50:26whole time. He boxes. When he boxes, he looks
- 50:28great. I'm talking about the last couple of years.
- 50:31Oh, yeah. No, he looks like shit. As I'm saying,
- 50:34no. I'm talking about, like, recently. I'm not
- 50:37talking about, like, before. Like, recently.
- 50:39Recently in, like, quotation marks. His last
- 50:41two fights have been... Oh, he looked like dog
- 50:44shit against Montiel. After... Yeah. Recent as
- 50:49in four years. Recent if it was four years ago,
- 50:52so... I can't imagine his... I don't know. Charlo
- 50:56feels very wasted talent. Bad but true. Got sick.
- 51:02Because... He's definitely... I found him to
- 51:06be the... Like, when he's boxing, the better
- 51:09Charlo, because he's not as... He just has the
- 51:13better hand -eye coordination in finding spots,
- 51:15where Jermel is a little hesitant sometimes.
- 51:21But, I mean, two fights and... Three fights in
- 51:27five years is rough. The thing is that I feel
- 51:31like... curse of planning a future fight between
- 51:35the two double -headers. You know what I mean?
- 51:39Someone's got to lose. As it happens. I think
- 51:47Charlo's more prone to lose here. I was about
- 51:50to say, yeah, Charlo's going to be more prone
- 51:52to lose. He's got fucking, what, two years since,
- 51:55almost two years since Benavidez. Fuck, dude.
- 51:59It's going to be rough. I also just like Plant.
- 52:03I also just like Caleb Plant a lot more. Caleb
- 52:07Plant also has cardio issues, but he doesn't
- 52:13lose his boxing ability when he gasses either.
- 52:16He just gasses. The guy who's fighting Resendez,
- 52:19he's not a horrible fighter. He's not terrible.
- 52:22He's not bad. Yeah, he's not bad at all. I think
- 52:25that's going to be a good scrap for Caleb Plant.
- 52:27It's a good stay -busy fight, I got to say. But
- 52:31if they're playing to put Jamal, Charlo, and
- 52:33Kilo playing in the future, I don't know. Every
- 52:36time they do those stupid double -headers where
- 52:38in the future they're going to fight, something
- 52:41always goes wrong. This is a fight that's been
- 52:46in the works since COVID, basically. When it
- 52:53happens, it'll be fun. It's going to happen.
- 52:55This is just more or less, oh shit, we still
- 52:58have this storyline to play out. Especially because
- 53:03if Charlo comes back not washed, what a perfect
- 53:10way to get back into the mix at 168. With Caleb
- 53:14Plant too. Especially if you stop him. Benavidez
- 53:19did not stop him. Benavidez put belt to ass on
- 53:23him later in the fight. Which, I'll tell you,
- 53:27that was a fun fight, too. Well, that was a good
- 53:30fight. Plant had that fucking dog in him, dude.
- 53:32Yeah, he did. Like that Trevor McCombie fight.
- 53:35Trevor McCombie versus Plant, dude. Oh, my God.
- 53:38That was fun. I love that fight. Even the Durrell
- 53:41fight. Oh, that was iconic. Like, Plant's legs
- 53:47might not last all 12, but fuck his heart. His
- 53:50heart gives you everything. Even his... Against
- 53:55Katsugari, his title fight, his first one, he
- 53:59gassed so late. He gassed late. He gassed late,
- 54:04but he didn't even go down. And Jose was putting
- 54:08Bell to ass, too, in the last couple rounds.
- 54:11The funniest thing is that with Caleb Plant,
- 54:15his biggest audience, his fan base, is the Hispanic
- 54:17community. It's funny. What's because of the
- 54:21Canelo fight? Like, you saw the other two fights
- 54:26that Canelo had, his title fights at 168. Like,
- 54:29Callum Smith shriveled away and just kind of
- 54:30accepted it. Yeah. Saunders quit. On his stool.
- 54:35Basically. As soon as the adversity came, basically.
- 54:39No, I'll give anyone a pass for a broken orbital
- 54:44except for Saunders. Except BJS. I want to say,
- 54:46yeah. He gets no pass considering. Dubois had
- 54:50the same shit, and he's like, I'd never quit
- 54:52on my stool. I'd have to die out there. Next
- 54:55fight. Breaks his orbital, quits on his stool.
- 54:59And he's going to come back? Fight on a bench?
- 55:02Or Chris Eubank? What, at the 170? 175? I don't
- 55:08fucking know. Fuck, have you seen those? He looks
- 55:10like a medicine ball. Fuck yeah, dude. But anyways,
- 55:16back to Caleb playing, dude. He was the one.
- 55:19That gave Canelo the hardest fight. With the
- 55:22most heart. Exactly. That was a fun fight, dude.
- 55:27That was a fun -ass fight, too. Even when Canelo
- 55:29cracked him, Canelo still had to go and finish
- 55:32him. Oh, yeah. He got up the first knockdown.
- 55:37He didn't fold. Canelo had to fucking hunt him.
- 55:41Fun as fuck. That was Canelo's last good fight.
- 55:46Don't remind me. But Caleb Plant, I think he
- 55:50takes out Resendiz. Oh, yeah. Not that Resendiz
- 55:55is any bad. It's got to be early. It's got to
- 55:58be early. Caleb definitely, especially with Charlo
- 56:02on the card, is going to look great early. If
- 56:05it goes late, it's not going to look as great.
- 56:08Yeah. He's not going to look very great if they
- 56:10go late. What are you thinking right now? What
- 56:12are you thinking? Oh, I'm thinking Caleb Plant.
- 56:16Probably going to end this pretty quickly. Resendiz
- 56:18is okay. I wouldn't write home about this fight.
- 56:25This isn't one where I'd be like, hey, casual
- 56:27sports friends, check this out. This wouldn't
- 56:31be it. This is something I get the hardcores
- 56:34over for a nice couple beers and some snacks.
- 56:39You get the hardcores in. Yeah, the people who
- 56:41know the Charlo plant, the history to that. That
- 56:46would be... Yeah, people... Yeah. Like, most
- 56:49you're gonna see are, like, the highlights and,
- 56:52uh, Kermel's fight on social media, and honestly,
- 56:54that might be all you need to watch if you're
- 56:56casual. Yeah, unless you... Well, just the highlights
- 56:58is pretty much all you're gonna see from these.
- 57:01Unless... Unless he looks like that's KO, of
- 57:03course. That's gonna be a highlight on its own.
- 57:07That's a highlight. I know. I mean, like, he's
- 57:09gonna be, like... Like, that's gonna be the main,
- 57:11like, highlight, bro. Oh, right. The main one.
- 57:14Main, main one. You know? Oh, yeah. That's all
- 57:18I had, though. For the whole card in general.
- 57:23I think that's it for this week, huh? It is.
