This is the B-Sides Boxing Podcast.
0:15
Man. Man, man, man.
0:31
Energy come out now.
0:34
Yo, Boxing B-Sides back up in your ear balls.
0:41
If you think we're going to be talking about Naoya Inoue today,
0:45
you are...
0:45
you're going to be left wanting because that's not what we're doing right now.
0:50
We've got other things on the docket.
0:55
UFC 311 happened.
0:56
It was a little while ago.
0:58
If you want to hear more about it, go to check out the Ultimate F'ing Casuals.
1:04
It's a fun romp, even if you don't know anything about MMA.
1:08
The main on that one got changed, didn't it?
1:13
Yes.
1:14
The dude had a, they said it was like a back spasm or something.
1:20
And I don't buy it.
1:23
I think he had been injured for a while.
1:24
They just kept his name on there to keep selling tickets.
1:30
What's known in the biz is a dick move.
1:34
I think that's the scientific term.
1:36
Yes.
1:39
The co-main event was really, really fun.
1:43
There was good stuff, enjoyable stuff, entertaining, f'ing knockouts and stuff.
1:53
Nice.
1:55
Yeah, the main event, the dude that stepped in, he's a, the last time he was handed a
2:01
microphone, he talked about the decline of France and how France being a sec, having
2:11
a secular government is why they are like disgraced on the national, on the international
2:18
stage.
2:19
The guy is a f'ing weirdo.
2:20
Renato Henado Moicano is his name.
2:26
Brazilian?
2:27
Yes.
2:28
Nice.
2:29
Yeah.
2:30
Love when Brazilians talk shit about France.
2:35
He stepped in on a day's notice to fight one of the best MMA guys on earth.
2:43
A day's notice is crazy.
2:45
That is f'ing wild.
2:47
But you gotta, I guess, when an opportunity knocks.
2:52
Shoot your shot, I guess, but a day's notice is crazy.
2:57
But enough of that.
2:58
Go check out Ultimate F'ing Casuals if you want to hear more about, we're going to run
3:01
down the whole card.
3:04
Getting into some news here, did you see Turkey's tournament shit?
3:09
No, I have missed this.
3:11
Alright, so he is proposing a four person tournament.
3:15
Jaron Ennis vs. Tiofimo Lopez, Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia rematch, and then the winners
3:22
fight and then the losers fight.
3:25
I'd be on board for that.
3:26
Yeah.
3:27
That sounds fun.
3:28
To be honest though, I would rather just watch Tiofimo vs. Ryan.
3:33
Like those two don't end up fighting, I will be upset.
3:36
I wonder if, so you do winner winner and loser loser.
3:40
What if you do, like the loser of the winner's fight versus the winner of the loser's fight
3:46
and then the loser of the loser's fight like fucks off for whatever, like go away.
3:53
Oh, like a double knockout style.
3:58
That could be fun.
3:59
I mostly just want to see the mental health Olympics in boxing.
4:03
Oh my goodness, that's what this is.
4:06
Devin Haney dropped his lawsuit.
4:10
He didn't drop it.
4:11
He suspended it.
4:13
Oh, okay.
4:14
Well, it's a big difference though, because it is only suspended for like, I think, is
4:19
it 60 days?
4:21
Something like that, 90 days.
4:23
And then it either restarts or he drops it.
4:26
I was under the impression that the suspension, it was contingent upon Garcia going into VADA
4:33
like randomized year round testing, which like by the time their rematch comes around,
4:38
it's not going to be a full year or whatever, but being available for randomized testing.
4:45
Yeah.
4:46
I think that is the point of it is if you don't agree to that, we'll just restart the
4:51
lawsuit.
4:52
Yeah.
4:53
Yeah.
4:54
I think it was Provox guys, or maybe it was Chris Elgeri on that other podcast he does,
5:00
was talking about how he kind of thought that maybe this was all Haney's grand plan was
5:07
to use this lawsuit to get Garcia into the testing.
5:12
That's the whole reason the lawsuit was started.
5:14
If it's true, that's like 4D chess, but I don't know if I believe it.
5:20
Yeah.
5:21
I can see that being the case, but the way that the Haney's went about all of that makes
5:29
me think that it wasn't.
5:31
It's not a grand plan because they were being little bitches like having hissy fits.
5:35
100%.
5:36
I agree with you, but it was an interesting take on it anyways.
5:42
Yeah.
5:43
It's an interesting idea.
5:44
Spence Fundora, it's officially off.
5:49
Spence came out saying, I'll come back when I'm ready.
5:53
Little emphasis on the I'm when I'm ready.
5:56
Thanks.
5:57
Yeah.
5:58
I've been saying this forever.
6:00
Spence is broken.
6:02
Cooked.
6:03
He's gone.
6:04
Yeah.
6:05
Stick a fork in him.
6:08
I just don't want to see him anymore either.
6:11
If he does come back, he's going to be a shadow of his former self.
6:15
I don't know.
6:16
I just don't care to see Spence anymore.
6:19
I think he should retire and he's just having a very hard time admitting that to himself.
6:24
Yeah.
6:25
Yeah.
6:26
I know.
6:27
No additional notes.
6:28
Sad.
6:29
Could have been the legend.
6:32
Don't drink and drive kids.
6:33
Fucking don't drink and drive.
6:35
Don't crash your Enzo flipping it like 10 times.
6:38
And wear a seatbelt.
6:40
There were many fucking things wrong.
6:43
Don't drive at 100 miles per hour on a residential road.
6:46
Moving on.
6:49
Support for this episode is from Carnivore Snacks.
6:51
One snack that I think most people can agree on is jerky.
6:54
Now, when I was in Afghanistan, beef jerky was my go-to snack when I needed something
6:59
that was hefty, but I didn't have a lot of time to really sit down and eat.
7:03
So, jerky brands, they come and go.
7:06
And while the big players are still out there, let me put you on game about Carnivore Snacks.
7:10
If you've heard a particular show that we have here in the Lux Media Network, you know
7:16
that we take environmental protection very seriously.
7:20
Industrial farming is the stuff of nightmares.
7:23
It's like hell on earth and I think that anybody who wants to continue eating meat should have
7:27
to see what these animals go through.
7:31
But here are some terms that I learned about when I looked into Carnivore Snacks.
7:36
That's regenerative agriculture and lifetime grazing.
7:39
Now, regenerative ag is when people who know what they're doing cycle through crops that
7:45
keeps the land healthy and in good order.
7:49
And it also gives the animals a more natural diet and a better life before they're sent
7:56
off to be made into food.
7:58
Lifetime grazing is where the animals, it's like free range, but it's verifiable.
8:05
These animals are never put into cages or pans or sties or whatever.
8:09
They spend their entire lives free to roam.
8:12
Now, both of these terms are independently audited through several organizations, so
8:17
there's no bullshitting here.
8:19
The pun is definitely intended.
8:23
I'm getting to the end of the spot and I haven't even talked about the product yet,
8:26
but my first order was the ribeye.
8:28
That's my favorite cut of steak and goodness, goodness gracious, the marbling on the pieces
8:33
were it was just amazing.
8:36
So much flavor and there's only two ingredients, meat and salt.
8:40
That's it.
8:42
I'm definitely going to be getting more, so I would recommend if you want to try it
8:46
out, get 15% off every order, not just your first from carnivore snacks, go to lvx.be
8:53
slash car snacks.
8:55
So to spell it out, lvx.be slash car snacks for 15% off.
9:04
Help us out in the process.
9:05
Do some reviews here, this is also just like the last time, this is a light section, so
9:12
I'm really fucking, we went to the bottom of the barrel here.
9:17
Kadir Albright, this is King's Promotion, this was in Philly.
9:21
Kadir Albright, the ref pulls the plug at the end of six or end of five going into six.
9:33
This Kadir Albright has an awesome nickname too.
9:36
We need to check nicknames all the time, Leo, because he is Savage C4.
9:42
That is fucking awesome.
9:44
So Philadelphia to me, I don't know why.
9:48
The savage part, I think is what makes me think it's really quintessential Philly.
9:53
Yeah, you can't just be C4, you got to make it extra.
9:58
You are the unrefined C4.
10:03
Alright, moving to another one.
10:06
In Panama, Duran Promotions, yes they are related, at the Roberto Duran Arena.
10:13
Motherfucker has a whole ass arena named after him.
10:16
Duran probably has everything ever made named after him in Panama.
10:21
Probs, yeah, I would fucking name everything the Duran or the Hands of Stone shit.
10:27
Yes.
10:28
There was only one fight that really caught my eye and that was Royman Villa.
10:32
He's back and he got a stoppage in the fourth over Alexander Duran.
10:38
I don't know if he's related to the promoter and to Roberto.
10:44
I don't recognize any of these other names.
10:48
There isn't a whole lot going on.
10:50
Last one, this one was in Santa Ines at the Chumash Casino.
10:55
Let's get the other shit out of the way.
10:57
Roxy, she goes by Right Hook Roxy.
11:01
Gets a stoppage in three over Lindsay Ellis.
11:04
Homegirl is from close to where Romeo grew up.
11:07
Oh, nice.
11:08
Yeah, so he was a little upset when she started getting her ass kicked.
11:13
Gloria Munguia, unaffiliated.
11:15
Gets a UD over Brooke.
11:18
Cibrian, that was a fun one.
11:21
Ali Akhmedov, stoppage in two over Malcolm Jones.
11:25
Been similar to the way Justice Hooney opponents tend to go.
11:29
Once they get a feel for it, yeah, they don't want to continue.
11:33
I can understand.
11:35
Yeah.
11:36
Main event, pointedly skipping over the co-main, but Omar Trinidad, he is like 360's best hope
11:43
right now and it's not very good.
11:46
Yeah, that wasn't a very impressive fight.
11:50
No, left a lot to be desired.
11:52
Over Mike Plania, this guy is 31 and 4, so he's a professional.
11:58
He has a pretty solid record.
12:00
He got done in by Angelo Leo in three rounds.
12:04
Omar Trinidad went life and death with him.
12:08
There's levels, buddy, and you're not ready for the next one.
12:11
Yeah.
12:12
He could.
12:13
He could shape up.
12:14
There is something there, but it's just not 360 needs to slow it down a little bit.
12:19
He's not young, but he's not old.
12:23
He's still got some time.
12:25
Late 20s.
12:26
Oh, shit.
12:27
He's 28.
12:28
Yikes.
12:29
Yeah.
12:30
Maybe they're stepping him up because of his age.
12:33
I would expect that's the case.
12:35
Don't have a lot of time to mess around.
12:36
I have to admit, I was at work and had that on in the background and quit paying attention
12:43
part way through.
12:44
It was not a very exciting fight.
12:46
No.
12:47
But then, like towards the end, Plania did go into survival mode.
12:51
So it's not entirely on Trinidad that it kind of sucked, but still, man, I'm going to keep
12:57
saying it.
12:58
Angelo Leo stopped him in three.
12:59
So I don't know.
13:00
I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish there.
13:03
Yeah.
13:04
Now, the main event in our hearts, Mizuki Hiuta.
13:08
This was awesome.
13:10
Amazing fight.
13:11
Seriously.
13:12
The doctor pulls the plug.
13:14
Maribel Ramirez got a nasty ass cut that was just gushing onto her face, like into her
13:21
eye.
13:22
Yeah.
13:23
It was a wild fight.
13:24
She did not quit, though.
13:25
No, fuck no.
13:26
That woman is a fucking beast.
13:27
I've seen Mary Bell.
13:29
I said this when we previewed these.
13:31
I've seen Mary Bell before, and she is always in entertaining ass fights.
13:37
She is tough as fuck.
13:39
Yeah.
13:40
I was saying, once the fight ended, I had said, she's 15, 10, and 4 going into the fight.
13:47
If those 10 losses are anything like what I just saw, this woman is a fucking beast.
13:53
She's a machine.
13:54
Yeah.
13:55
Like, she can be outboxed.
13:58
That is, there's no question, but she will not be out gutted, if you know what I mean.
14:04
But Mizuki, the fucking queen of boxing discord now?
14:09
Yeah.
14:10
I hadn't actually seen her before.
14:13
I don't think she's been televised very much.
14:16
I don't think so.
14:17
But man, the, what's the right word?
14:20
The presentation.
14:21
Like, the aura she has is just awesome.
14:25
The theatrics were fun.
14:27
Yes.
14:28
Came out to Sailor Moon theme song.
14:32
Had a super cool fashion designed boxing outfit.
14:37
Yeah.
14:38
She apparently does that with every fight.
14:41
Yeah.
14:42
Secret designer.
14:43
Yeah, I had to do some background reading after I saw her.
14:47
The bright pink hair.
14:48
I do not understand how she gets her hair that color.
14:51
It's amazing.
14:52
And then, of course, the boxing as well.
14:54
Yeah.
14:55
I mean, it's fun to have a character like that.
14:59
There are others like a, what's his name?
15:00
Chris Colbert used to do shit like that, but he's also a douchebag.
15:04
So she seems like a very sweet lady.
15:06
Well, and who's the guy with the mascot of himself?
15:11
Abraham Nova?
15:12
So cringy.
15:13
Yeah, it's so cringy.
15:14
Yeah.
15:15
But I still watch.
15:16
And he hasn't fought for a while.
15:18
But who's Blair?
15:20
Blair Cobb.
15:21
Blair the Flair.
15:22
Yes.
15:23
Me and my brother used to get excited for his fights.
15:25
Not for the fights, but just the interviews.
15:29
All the wrestling shit he does.
15:30
He cuts like straight up wrestling promotion.
15:34
It's pretty funny.
15:35
Yeah.
15:36
It's great.
15:37
I like the over the top characters when they're not just people being assholes.
15:42
But Mizuki is so cute.
15:44
And she told everybody to call her Mimi, which is adorable.
15:50
And then she came out and just fucking beat the piss out of this poor lady.
15:54
Yeah.
15:55
It was pretty bad.
15:58
It was competitive for like the first two rounds or something.
16:01
Yeah.
16:02
And then Mimi's left hand just couldn't miss.
16:07
That cut was bad.
16:10
And once she cut her, she just kept targeting it like you should.
16:15
But open Maribel up so badly.
16:19
And they kept zooming in on it.
16:21
And it was so gross.
16:22
I'm excited to watch her next fight, though.
16:24
She is getting added to my Google alerts, I think.
16:28
I need to set those up.
16:29
They're super easy to set up.
16:31
Yeah, I just never got down to doing it.
16:34
I don't know.
16:35
That was the best fight of the night.
16:37
By far.
16:38
Yeah.
16:39
By far the best fight of the week.
16:41
Yes, definitely.
16:43
But that's it for that one.
16:44
That's it for 360.
16:45
And that's it for the fucking recaps.
16:47
Holy poo poo.
16:48
I told you all they were coming.
16:51
Support for this episode is from the Ramen Bay.
16:54
If you're at all like me, chances are you had those 10 cent quote unquote ramen packages
16:58
that come in with some shit ass noodles and a packet of just salt.
17:03
You had a couple of those in the cupboard growing up.
17:06
But I hope by now that you've been put on game of what ramen actually is because them
17:10
shits that you can get like a palette for five dollars.
17:13
That's not it.
17:14
So if you're also like me, chances are that you don't have a solid ramen shop near you.
17:19
Fs in the chat for us.
17:21
But I'm about to change your ramen fortunes for the better.
17:24
So for my first order from the Ramen Bay, I got three things.
17:27
Oyster mushrooms, enoki mushrooms and the fish cakes go by Naruto.
17:32
Yeah, believe it.
17:34
They come they all come vacuum packed and they're all dried out.
17:38
So you don't have to worry about them, you know, turning shitty after opening it.
17:41
And then a day later, it's all, you know, rotten or whatever.
17:44
If you enjoy ramen like actual ramen with good broth, good noodles, good flavor, these
17:50
additions are an absolute must.
17:52
The enoki mushrooms are my personal favorite.
17:54
They add a lovely crunch that just because of how they look, they hide in the noodles
18:00
and you just never know when you're going to get a mouthful of them.
18:02
And it's excellent.
18:04
The fish cakes, they taste good.
18:07
And yes, but when you see them, you'll understand what I mean when I say that they're just fun
18:11
to have in the bowl.
18:12
If you want to get 10% off every order and you want to help us out in the process, go

18:19
I'm going to be completely honest as I as I'm finishing recording this spot, I'm going
18:25
to go make me some ramen using my ramen bay ingredients.
18:29
Thinking about the enoki mushrooms really, it's got me grumbling.

18:48
Okay, into our previews.
18:52
Thursday, January 30th.
18:55
Yvonne Michelle promotion is back.
18:59
They're doing a card in Montreal.
19:01
I don't really know who these people are.
19:04
I'm guessing they're this is like a prospect or to contender sort of push.
19:10
The top two are undefeated 20 and 0 and 19 and 0.
19:14
So that's fun.
19:15
I don't recognize a single name on here.
19:18
I don't either.
19:19
Friday, January 31st.
19:23
This is in London.
19:24
So this was started about midday on the West Coast.
19:28
This is a what is it?
19:30
Matchroom next gen or whatever.
19:32
It's their prospect series.
19:34
So I don't know if they're if you like British stuff.
19:38
Discord has plenty of Brits to talk about it with.
19:43
From the first Saturday Wembley Arena.
19:47
What did you think I was talking about?
19:52
There's no look it's boxer.
19:53
So it's like not a great card.
19:56
Adam Azim for Sergey Lipinets.
19:59
It's the vacant IBO 140 title that other than that, it's not a whole lot going on.
20:04
Sergey Lipinets is fighting for a title.
20:08
A fringe title.
20:09
But yes.
20:10
In 2025.
20:13
He's crazy.
20:14
Yeah.
20:15
I like Sergey, but he's old.
20:18
It's about time to start looking at like coaching or something.
20:22
Get out of the ring yourself.
20:26
The one we've all been waiting for.
20:30
Blue versus orange or copper, I guess.
20:33
And discord David Benavides versus David Morrell.
20:38
Let me work from the bottom up.
20:41
Rowenley Hernandez versus Angel Astorga.
20:46
Ten round middles 160s.
20:49
Jesus Ramos is back baby versus Jason Rosario.
20:52
Ten round 154s.
20:54
Is Jason Rosario the banana man?
20:57
Yes.
20:58
I did not know that nickname.
21:00
I can't decide if I love it or hate it.
21:03
But they were calling him that on discord and I had to get an explanation as to why.
21:11
He's from the Dominican Republic.
21:12
Yeah, that's the explanation.
21:13
Yeah.
21:14
Yeah, that's what I thought.
21:16
I wasn't sure if it had anything to do with like his ding dong or something.
21:19
Yeah, my childish brain could not think of any possible reason other than he has a huge
21:24
shlong and they can't just call him big dick Rosario.
21:28
But apparently it's because he's from the Dominican Republic.
21:33
So makes sense.
21:35
Yeah, I don't know how this is going to go for him.
21:37
He's been having a bit of a hard time.
21:40
He had that draw with Jarrett Hurd that I think he won.
21:44
That was a pro box a while ago.
21:46
He's got four losses all by KO, which is usually not good when the the KO start adding up.
21:53
Yeah, the one with a Jermell with the Charlo.
21:57
That's not it was weird.
22:00
He got he took a jab somewhere and he just kind of laid down and started looked like
22:05
he was I don't know, heaving or something.
22:08
I don't know.
22:10
Adding up Mirko Cuello versus Christian Olivo.
22:14
Ten round one twenty six Pitbull Cruz versus Angel Fierro.
22:18
Ten rounds at one forty.
22:21
Isaac Cruz.
22:22
I mean, Pitbull should win this one, right?
22:25
Yeah, this is like a kind of a gimme for him.
22:28
It's a respectable opponent.
22:30
I think Pitbull needs a couple.
22:32
What do you call them?
22:33
Confidence boosters.
22:34
And we'll see how he looks here because that was a pretty rough loss from with Rio.
22:41
That would hurt the confidence.
22:42
It would hurt mine.
22:43
I'd say that I can say that much.
22:45
Moving up, co-main event WBC featherweight title Brandon Figueroa was promoted and he's
22:51
fighting Steven Fulton again.
22:53
I like Figueroa.
22:54
Yeah, I'm hopeful that Fulton can put himself back together.
23:00
I don't care.
23:02
I like Steven Fulton, so there's.
23:04
Yeah, I guess there's no lose in this scenario for me because if Figueroa beats him or sorry,
23:12
if Fulton beats Figueroa, people have to admit that he wasn't watched when Inoue beat him
23:19
because I'm sick of people saying that Inoue never fights anybody who's any good.
23:24
I'm sorry.
23:25
Fulton was washed.
23:26
Well, you've seen the people on Discord.
23:30
I am so I'm like fucking flabbergasted here.
23:35
What?
23:36
I guess not washed.
23:37
Washed is the wrong word.
23:39
They're like, oh, well, Fulton was never that good to begin with.
23:42
What?
23:43
Exactly.
23:44
So I want to Figueroa to win.
23:46
But if Fulton does, maybe people will have to stop talking shit a little bit.
23:51
They're not going to stop.
23:53
Nobody ever stops.
23:54
He beat Angelo Leo clean.
23:57
That win has aged extremely well.
24:00
And he beats Figueroa in the first one is really, really close, really competitive.
24:04
But Fulton like kind of beat Figueroa at his own game.
24:08
Danny Roman.
24:10
Maybe Roman's a little overrated, I guess, but still a solid win.
24:13
I don't know what the fuck people want.
24:14
What do you want?
24:15
I don't know, man.
24:16
I don't fucking get it.
24:18
Fulton is fantastic.
24:20
That is an incredible win for Inoue.
24:23
So I don't know.
24:24
Shut the fuck up, hater, nerd, bitch people.
24:28
I turned my head and said that to the screen I have Discord on.
24:32
I said it to Discord.
24:34
Go me.
24:35
I also just like Figueroa because I don't think he does.
24:40
Not that there would be anything wrong with it if he does, but he always looks like he
24:43
has eye makeup on.
24:45
He does.
24:47
He's got like crazy eyelashes or something.
24:50
I don't know what it is.
24:51
And he's got the Superman curl.
24:53
So you have to fear for him.
24:56
And the main event, David Benavidez, the interim WBC light heavyweight champ versus David Morrell,
25:04
the WBA regular champ at light heavyweight.
25:08
I want to try because we're both on the Benavidez team in Discord.
25:14
We're both the copper color.
25:16
Yeah.
25:18
What avenues does Morrell have to win?
25:21
Like try to try to like workshop a winning strategy for him.
25:26
Well, I mean, he's got to box him, right?
25:29
I don't know.
25:30
I don't think so.
25:31
Just no.
25:32
I don't think he would be like getting pinning Benavidez down and laying like throwing hands
25:38
at him because he's really strong.
25:41
So I guess.
25:42
But Benavidez just needs to land that one punch, though.
25:47
I feel like if I was fighting Benavidez, I would be more on the don't get hit side than
25:54
the pinning him down.
25:58
I've never seen Benavidez like he doesn't seem like a one hit sort of.
26:04
He's an accumulation of damage kind of stuff.
26:07
I guess.
26:08
Yeah.
26:09
I don't know.
26:10
I don't think Morrell wins.
26:12
I don't know, Leo.
26:13
I'm bad at this one.
26:14
Do you have a game plan for David Morrell?
26:17
Yeah, no, it's come forward and keep Benavidez on the back foot.
26:21
Benavidez on the back foot is like a garbage fighter.
26:24
Fair enough.
26:25
Fair enough.
26:26
That's pretty much it.
26:28
I mean, these guys are bigger than I usually watch.
26:31
I don't I don't watch these guys that much.
26:33
I picked Benavidez because I've seen him more.
26:37
Like, Morrell doesn't have that many fights, does he?
26:41
No, this is his 12th or 13th.
26:44
I mean, obviously, he's he's really good, but I don't know.
26:49
I just I haven't seen him fight that much.
26:52
I know I've seen him at least once, but I think I I just think Benavidez wins.
26:59
Yeah, I don't know.
27:00
The fast hands, I think, are going to be the key for him.
27:04
I guess Morrell does have quite a few knockouts, doesn't he?
27:07
Like all of them.
27:08
Yeah, he he put one dude into a coma because he had a brain bleed.
27:14
Hmm.
27:15
Fortunately, he survived and he stopped fucking fighting.
27:18
I am looking for a very exciting fight on the going the distance.
27:24
I would bet not probably.
27:26
Yes, I would agree with that.
27:28
We need to get one of the the degenerate betters on Discord to do picks for us.
27:37
Just call them in.
27:38
Be our betting.
27:39
Oh, yeah.
27:40
Tell me which are what are the good value bets?
27:44
Yeah, yeah, because I don't do any of the side bet type stuff.
27:50
I just bet on winners and losers.
27:52
But the over unders and all that sort of stuff, I I never do that.
27:58
But there's somebody on there that does a lot of the live betting to feel like I would
28:02
lose a lot of money if I started live betting.
28:05
I I don't like gambling.
28:07
I think my biggest wager ever was 20 bucks.
28:12
I'm not losing the house when I gamble.
28:16
I don't know.
28:17
Yeah, I'm not really sure what's it like.
28:19
I can't talk up David Morrell because I don't think he's going to win.
28:23
Yeah, it's tough.
28:24
I miss Drip.
28:25
He always picked the other person.
28:27
I think that Morrell has people should call in and tell us why David Morrell wins.
28:33
Yes, please do.
28:35
833 Lux Pods, tell me why Morrell wins.
28:39
Morrell has he has the ability.
28:42
Like I said, if you keep Benavides on his back foot, he's it's going to be a bad night
28:47
for him.
28:48
And Morrell has very heavy hands.
28:50
So that could be a problem.
28:52
But I don't I just I don't know.
28:53
I don't think he's going to be able to do that.
28:56
Yeah, I think Benavides is just hard to keep on the back foot.
29:02
You really have to get his respect.
29:04
And Benavides can be pretty imposing.
29:09
But Morrell is also they both have really big come forward pressure.
29:16
And that's going to be a problem.
29:18
Whoever established like you said, whoever gets the respect, that's the they're going
29:22
to be in control of the night.
29:24
Neither of these fighters go backwards.
29:28
They just don't do it because they never have to.
29:30
It's going to be a banger.
29:31
Yes, absolutely.
29:32
Who's
29:33
bigger, like physically bigger?
29:38
Morrell is six one.
29:41
And I think Benavides is about the same.
29:44
Yeah, six, two.
29:46
So they're about the same size.
29:47
Have they done any sort of standing face off things yet?
29:53
Yes.
29:54
I'm sure they have.
29:55
Ah, yeah.
29:56
They're the same height.
29:58
But Benavides looks thicker.
30:00
Do you know what I mean?
30:02
Yes.
30:03
The only difference is four inches, four inch advantage to Morrell.
30:08
Oh, that could come into play.
30:09
That's going to be a fucking problem.
30:11
Yeah.
30:12
He's going to have to use his jab and a boxer puncher instead of just a puncher.
30:19
I don't think swarming is going to work on Benavides.
30:21
I think he needs to be smarter than just like pressure only.
30:26
He's going to need to jab and keep him on the outside and gain his respect.
30:31
And I don't know.
30:33
I don't think he can do it.
30:36
Got to work the body for sure.
30:37
Yeah, Benavides does look a little soft.
30:41
I don't think he is, but he kind of looks soft with his shirt off.
30:45
Kind of getting butterflies thinking about this one.
30:48
I'm really excited.
30:49
Yeah, it's going to be good.
30:51
I am pretty excited for this one.
30:53
Discord is going to be madness.
30:55
Oh, God, it is.
30:58
Gracism.
30:59
Oh, I didn't even think about that.
31:01
I was thinking about the fun people talking about it.
31:04
But yeah, there's going to be a bunch of randoms come in.
31:08
And well, the new onboarding features are set up and it has like you read the rules,
31:14
right?
31:15
Are you sure?
31:16
Because the most important one is if you ask me for a fucking stream, I'm going to kick
31:19
your ass.
31:20
Yeah, we don't do that.
31:22
We don't do that here.
31:23
It's like, dude, just look around because I'm sure that what you want is around.
31:30
I'm sure it is because I put it there.
31:34
That is oh, February 1st is when my brother comes.
31:38
But is that February 1st for me or February 2nd?
31:41
Second.
31:42
Oh, shit, Leo, I'm going to be on an airplane.
31:45
I'll be sure to tag you with as many like conflicting headlines as possible.
31:53
Awesome.
31:54
Yeah, no, I didn't really think about this.
31:55
We're going to be flying to Sapporo.
31:57
I think when this fight is on.
32:00
Airplanes have Wi-Fi these days.
32:01
You can.
32:02
I'm sure you could get it.
32:03
Yeah, I'll figure something out.
32:05
Yeah, I can also just watch it later.

34:18
And let me end my part with another bit of life advice or life affirmations.
34:27
So Ebenezer Scrooge and Charles Dickens Christmas Carol.
34:32
But you were always a good man of business, Jacob faltered Scrooge.
34:36
Business cried the ghost, wringing its hands again.
34:40
Mankind was my business.
34:41
The common welfare was my business.
34:43
Charity, mercy, forbearance and benevolence were all my business.
34:48
The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business.
34:54
Remember that.
34:55
Yeah, you're writing down actual quotes, putting pressure on me now, Leo.
35:01
I'm going to have to start doing this too.
35:03
I thought that's what we were doing.
35:05
That was the New Year's resolutions.
35:08
I've already broken my New Year's resolution.
35:11
I totally didn't prepare for any of this.
35:14
Drink water, water, water, straight up water is good for you.
35:19
H2O is delicious.
35:21
It is.
35:22
It is.
35:23
I, not parting words, but just fun things.
35:26
I have decided to also make a little more time for video games.
35:29
And months ago, I bought Total War.
35:33
I love real time strategies, but I am shit at them.
35:36
So this one has a mix of turn based and real time and I am still shit at the real time.
35:42
But the turn base I am getting the hang of.
35:44
So I am learning Japanese history through video games.
35:49
Believe it on that.
35:51
Call the fucking number.
35:52
Tell me what you think about the date.
35:53
Which David is going to win?
35:55
Don't give me that.
35:56
David versus David.
35:57
Don't give me that.
35:58
Oh, I think David is going to win.
35:59
No, you're not original and you're not fucking funny.
36:01
That's what that's what the candy ass roll is.
36:04
What color are you making candy ass?
36:05
Because I think it should be purple.
36:07
It's a bright sort of red, pinkish red.
36:10
I think it should be purple.
36:12
Purple is a much worse color than pink.
36:14
I will have you know that purple is my favorite color.
36:17
Oh.
36:18
Ever.
36:19
God.
36:20
I'll go cry in shame with my purple stuff.
36:24
All right, we're out of here.
36:28
See you on the other side.
36:29
See you on the other side.
