WEBVTT 00:01.448 --> 00:10.161 [SPEAKER_02]: Welcome to the Shirdawg Radio Network preview for UFC Fight Night 275, Della Madalena versus Protez, also known as UFC Perth. 00:11.002 --> 00:18.734 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm your host, BenDuffeeofshirdawg.com, and with me as usual is Keith Shillin, the executive producer of the Shirdawg Radio Network. 00:19.074 --> 00:20.096 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith, how are you doing today? 00:22.179 --> 00:24.182 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm doing good, but what are you doing? 00:24.202 --> 00:25.083 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm doing just fine. 00:25.304 --> 00:30.291 [SPEAKER_02]: It's an indication, if you're watching this, of how much I love you guys, 00:31.081 --> 00:32.182 [SPEAKER_02]: My week off. 00:32.617 --> 00:34.640 [SPEAKER_02]: But I just have to jump in. 00:34.660 --> 00:41.530 [SPEAKER_02]: I couldn't let UFC Perth go by without that little bit of expert analysis. 00:41.790 --> 00:43.492 [SPEAKER_02]: I know y'all have been looking forward to this one. 00:43.552 --> 00:46.036 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm, who am I kidding? 00:46.336 --> 00:49.621 [SPEAKER_02]: If you live in Perth, I'm not sure you're excited for this one. 00:49.921 --> 00:54.027 [SPEAKER_02]: This dude, this card, 12 fights, and we lost one. 00:54.107 --> 00:54.828 [SPEAKER_02]: We lost a good one. 00:55.529 --> 01:02.539 [SPEAKER_02]: Jack Jenkins versus Marwan Rihiki, you know, we'll see if that one gets replaced. 01:02.519 --> 01:04.401 [SPEAKER_02]: I will give them credit where credit is due. 01:05.062 --> 01:12.192 [SPEAKER_02]: Every single one of the 12 fights currently on the docket is an Australian or New Zealander fighter against a foreigner. 01:12.412 --> 01:20.903 [SPEAKER_02]: So the Perth crowd is and several from Perth, like all of the best fighters from Perth itself, like Jack Delamato Lannis, Steve Ursaeg, are here. 01:21.204 --> 01:31.277 [SPEAKER_02]: The crowd should be absolutely bonkers and that's going to make this 01:31.257 --> 01:34.231 [SPEAKER_02]: Assuming they can deliver the product in the cage. 01:34.392 --> 01:36.019 [SPEAKER_02]: So no problem with that. 01:36.361 --> 01:37.848 [SPEAKER_02]: Good going UFC matchmakers. 01:39.375 --> 01:40.339 [SPEAKER_02]: Having said that. 01:42.040 --> 01:51.490 [SPEAKER_02]: They, the length to which the UFC matchmakers had to go to find people that some of these dudes can beat is pretty, pretty shocking. 01:51.650 --> 02:02.641 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what the actual cut list will look like for us or for the UFC after this one, but in terms of people that it's like, how, how was this dude even still on roster? 02:03.242 --> 02:10.950 [SPEAKER_02]: There is a sneaky high number of them here. 02:11.318 --> 02:14.365 [SPEAKER_02]: There are so many fighters that are below 500 in the UFC here. 02:14.425 --> 02:23.607 [SPEAKER_02]: It's it really is kind of scraping the bottom of the barrel of whatever the term quote UFC level even means anymore. 02:25.628 --> 02:26.730 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to quiz you, Keith. 02:27.412 --> 02:28.995 [SPEAKER_02]: Yep, this is both on this card. 02:29.015 --> 02:30.498 [SPEAKER_02]: Good. 02:30.518 --> 02:38.294 [SPEAKER_02]: And if you're a regular viewer of our show, you know that our usual thing is that Keith doesn't look at the odds in advance, so I'll quiz them on the odds. 02:39.337 --> 02:45.730 [SPEAKER_02]: If the line is less than minus 200 for the favorite, I will usually just say what the line is and ask Keith to guess the favorite. 02:45.710 --> 02:52.182 [SPEAKER_02]: or if it's greater than two to one, where it's usually obvious who the favorite is, I'll ask Keith to take a guess of what the line is. 02:52.503 --> 03:01.700 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not gonna bother with that tonight because of the 12 Australian or New Zealander fighters on the card, 10 of them are favorites, including some massive favorites. 03:02.301 --> 03:09.574 [SPEAKER_02]: What I'm gonna do is, first, I'm gonna ask you Keith to guess which are the oceanic fighters that are not favorites on this card. 03:10.448 --> 03:11.269 [SPEAKER_00]: It's two of them. 03:11.950 --> 03:12.451 [SPEAKER_00]: There are two. 03:13.472 --> 03:17.378 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so there's probably three or four ones that I was thinking may not be. 03:18.480 --> 03:22.345 [SPEAKER_00]: The one that I'm feeling most comfortable is, is my main coping thickness. 03:23.727 --> 03:24.809 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he's a favorite. 03:26.331 --> 03:29.095 [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to see Jack Dylan Matalana. 03:29.796 --> 03:32.380 [SPEAKER_00]: Even though he was just recently that's the champion. 03:33.301 --> 03:34.583 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say he's an undog. 03:36.115 --> 03:37.096 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not bad. 03:37.837 --> 03:39.538 [SPEAKER_02]: Jack Delamado Lanna is not a favorite. 03:40.019 --> 03:41.640 [SPEAKER_02]: We'll get to that line when we get to that fight. 03:42.581 --> 03:44.543 [SPEAKER_02]: Our man, Mr. Thickness, is the favorite. 03:44.643 --> 03:49.488 [SPEAKER_02]: So we will find out who the other local fighter and not favorite to win this fight is when we get there. 03:50.409 --> 03:53.292 [SPEAKER_02]: Other question I'm gonna ask you on the odds right out of the gate. 03:53.652 --> 03:55.194 [SPEAKER_02]: Who is the biggest favorite on the card? 03:55.594 --> 03:55.974 [SPEAKER_02]: Do you think? 03:58.417 --> 03:59.778 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna go with a man, Rauston. 04:02.761 --> 04:03.962 [SPEAKER_02]: Looking at Rauston, 04:04.533 --> 04:05.034 [SPEAKER_02]: Not bad. 04:05.335 --> 04:05.997 [SPEAKER_02]: He is a favorite. 04:06.117 --> 04:07.100 [SPEAKER_02]: He's a comfortable favorite. 04:07.400 --> 04:09.887 [SPEAKER_02]: He is not even close to the biggest favorite in this card. 04:10.027 --> 04:11.431 [SPEAKER_02]: I can't wait to get to this one. 04:11.551 --> 04:16.925 [SPEAKER_02]: I am, I'm, see, just this right here has made me more excited to preview some of these fights. 04:18.609 --> 04:20.955 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, oh, oh. 04:22.252 --> 04:23.474 [SPEAKER_00]: I, I, now I'm not. 04:23.494 --> 04:25.596 [SPEAKER_00]: You figured out, you figured it out, didn't you? 04:25.617 --> 04:26.297 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was still it. 04:26.317 --> 04:27.739 [SPEAKER_00]: Did you take him out against the biggest favorite? 04:28.200 --> 04:28.821 [SPEAKER_02]: Ding, ding, ding. 04:29.342 --> 04:29.602 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 04:29.622 --> 04:30.383 [SPEAKER_02]: Keep chilling nails. 04:30.423 --> 04:33.247 [SPEAKER_02]: Take him out, Koon is the biggest favorite on the card. 04:33.427 --> 04:37.653 [SPEAKER_02]: And he's one of the four or five biggest favorites in the UFC thus far this year. 04:37.953 --> 04:39.095 [SPEAKER_02]: We will talk about that one. 04:39.776 --> 04:40.537 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll get back to it. 04:41.378 --> 04:44.482 [SPEAKER_00]: I just glazed over and saw Ralph's then and thought, he's going to be a big favorite. 04:44.502 --> 04:46.284 [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it's not Koon, no, no, Brad. 04:47.486 --> 04:48.327 [SPEAKER_02]: And. 04:48.560 --> 04:55.331 [SPEAKER_02]: For those of you at home, going will, who cares, it's great if the local fighters win, I agree. 04:55.371 --> 05:03.744 [SPEAKER_02]: But on the other hand, if you put the fighter in such a squash match that even if they win, we don't really learn anything about them. 05:03.985 --> 05:10.956 [SPEAKER_02]: The UFC doesn't get to match them any different going forward because they didn't prove they were better or worse than we thought they were, then these fights mean nothing. 05:12.775 --> 05:14.718 [SPEAKER_02]: would just, that's what I throw out there. 05:15.179 --> 05:16.721 [SPEAKER_02]: You got at least challenge some of these people. 05:17.362 --> 05:26.335 [SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, it'll be great for Jacob Malkoon to get a win in front of friends, family, whoever wants to travel from New Zealand to see him will up on Gerald Mirchard. 05:26.355 --> 05:29.380 [SPEAKER_02]: But the UFC, what are they gonna do? 05:29.400 --> 05:34.848 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, next time we need to give him a step up from Gerald Mirchard, well, yeah, of course, they should have given him a step up from Gerald Mirchard. 05:35.189 --> 05:39.475 [SPEAKER_02]: This Saturday, there, matchmaking 101. 05:41.885 --> 05:44.608 [SPEAKER_02]: Outside of the main event, which fight are you most excited for on this card? 05:45.849 --> 05:46.250 [SPEAKER_00]: How about this? 05:46.690 --> 05:48.833 [SPEAKER_00]: You play a guessing game for a second. 05:48.973 --> 05:50.815 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say, which fight do I say? 05:53.658 --> 05:57.822 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to say it is Steve or Seg versus Tim L. It is the men flyweight. 05:58.343 --> 06:00.025 [SPEAKER_02]: They cost some go on the flyweight fight. 06:01.166 --> 06:11.537 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, for those keeping track at home, there are two unranked heavyweight fights on the main card of this event. 06:13.441 --> 06:14.863 [SPEAKER_02]: UFC been saving it up for us. 06:14.923 --> 06:18.848 [SPEAKER_02]: We have not had an unranked heavyweight slobber knocker on a main card for a minute. 06:19.169 --> 06:20.210 [SPEAKER_02]: We got two of them here. 06:21.231 --> 06:31.265 [SPEAKER_02]: And again, the lengths to which the UFC had to go to to find dudes that Brando Parachat and Taitui Vasa could reasonably beat. 06:32.586 --> 06:34.369 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we'll get to him when we get to him. 06:34.469 --> 06:37.252 [SPEAKER_02]: Any other general thoughts on this card before we we jump into these prelimbs? 06:38.614 --> 06:39.556 [SPEAKER_02]: No, let's get into it. 06:40.236 --> 06:40.697 [SPEAKER_02]: All right. 06:42.112 --> 06:50.102 [SPEAKER_02]: First up, at UFC Perth, at least as the card is set up as of the beginning of fight week, is a lightweight matchup between Dom Marfan and Cody Steel. 06:50.903 --> 06:54.687 [SPEAKER_02]: Marfan, the 26 year old Australian, is nine and two overall. 06:55.188 --> 06:59.232 [SPEAKER_02]: He is one of those since joining the UFC out of season four of road to UFC. 06:59.733 --> 07:11.427 [SPEAKER_02]: He made his official UFC debut at UFC 325, back in January, winning a unanimous decision over songbook Kim. 07:12.790 --> 07:15.715 [SPEAKER_02]: 31 year old Texan is seven and one overall. 07:15.976 --> 07:20.344 [SPEAKER_02]: He's Owen one since joining the UFC out of season eight of Dana White's contender series. 07:21.225 --> 07:32.065 [SPEAKER_02]: He won on the contender series all the way back in 2024 made as UFC debut at UFC 312 a little over a year ago dropping a unanimous decision to wrongs you. 07:32.045 --> 07:33.529 [SPEAKER_02]: He's been on the shelf ever since. 07:33.709 --> 07:35.072 [SPEAKER_02]: He is stepping back in here. 07:35.113 --> 07:40.025 [SPEAKER_02]: And he is the other person on this card who is favored over the local fighter. 07:40.265 --> 07:41.428 [SPEAKER_02]: Steel is minus 200. 07:41.809 --> 07:44.215 [SPEAKER_02]: Marfan plus 170 coming back. 07:45.494 --> 07:48.779 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith, I know it's been a while since we've seen Cody steal in the cage. 07:49.099 --> 07:51.643 [SPEAKER_02]: We have seen Dom Morph Marfan more recently. 07:53.005 --> 07:53.425 [SPEAKER_02]: Let me know. 07:53.465 --> 07:54.727 [SPEAKER_02]: You're take on this fight. 07:54.887 --> 07:55.548 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know. 07:55.568 --> 07:56.289 [SPEAKER_02]: You think lenses one? 07:57.071 --> 08:00.455 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, so fan is the other one who wasn't the other one who wasn't the other one. 08:00.475 --> 08:00.816 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 08:00.836 --> 08:05.663 [SPEAKER_02]: Jack Delamado Lena, Dom Morphan, the two Australian fighters that are not favored. 08:06.364 --> 08:06.724 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, wow. 08:07.425 --> 08:08.787 [SPEAKER_00]: It's time to cut off. 08:09.869 --> 08:11.451 [SPEAKER_00]: I wonder what the time difference. 08:12.190 --> 08:17.477 [SPEAKER_00]: you know, how much impact that's going to make because it's not the one where the Australian fighters are fighting in a weird time. 08:17.537 --> 08:20.681 [SPEAKER_00]: It's where the rest of the world is fighting in a weird time. 08:21.402 --> 08:24.686 [SPEAKER_00]: I know this is kicking off at like 4 a.m. where we are. 08:24.807 --> 08:32.076 [SPEAKER_00]: So, um, I mean, don't, yeah, like should still be a two to one fair probably not. 08:32.136 --> 08:39.666 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, neither guy is that good, fan, fania on the feeding system slow hands doesn't have the best output. 08:39.848 --> 08:40.729 [SPEAKER_00]: Not much power. 08:41.290 --> 08:44.734 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes team kicks, he'll throw some question mark kicks. 08:45.455 --> 08:47.557 [SPEAKER_00]: He can close the distance, he likes to battle in the clan. 08:47.597 --> 08:49.699 [SPEAKER_00]: She looks for take-downs, usually from the by-lock. 08:50.500 --> 08:52.543 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets the fight to the ground, he's a solid grappler. 08:53.384 --> 08:55.746 [SPEAKER_00]: Good top control, he vances position in the ground. 08:56.267 --> 08:57.649 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got some slick backtakes. 08:58.450 --> 09:01.073 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to lock him like, somewhere we just saw. 09:01.653 --> 09:04.877 [SPEAKER_00]: Last night, he like, lock him by the trying goes like, out in Mainstairland, those. 09:04.857 --> 09:11.127 [SPEAKER_00]: not calling out to me in sterling, but he has three submissive wins, not the best defense rest of the steal. 09:11.547 --> 09:17.376 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a pressure striker, he likes to move forward, he throws really hard, steps into his shots, but Jax hooks. 09:18.178 --> 09:22.064 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't hit hard, a lot of his knuckles can set up with the body work that he does. 09:23.005 --> 09:24.688 [SPEAKER_00]: I saw him finish an opponent with a body shot. 09:25.729 --> 09:33.261 [SPEAKER_00]: He needs to learn to change his tempo a little bit though, because when he fights it's 09:33.241 --> 09:40.715 [SPEAKER_00]: he crashes in the pocket very similar rhythm so it's so he's open to get time by the really elite strikers and not that fan of that guy. 09:41.556 --> 09:44.461 [SPEAKER_00]: When he throws big shots, he tends to Mars work. 09:44.662 --> 09:55.401 [SPEAKER_00]: I wrote it down multiple times now for him and so because of that he's open to be counted on that you know like if he goes for us if he's now the way for the second shot come back at him he can get clocked. 09:55.685 --> 09:57.548 [SPEAKER_00]: also droms his hands, which makes even worse. 09:58.349 --> 09:59.792 [SPEAKER_00]: He throws kicks, but doesn't set him up. 10:00.413 --> 10:02.176 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a very large strong base. 10:02.196 --> 10:02.977 [SPEAKER_00]: He's opened the lake. 10:02.997 --> 10:04.499 [SPEAKER_00]: He's having his front foot, I should say. 10:05.441 --> 10:08.906 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to wrestle, though he did have been in take downs against Rungju. 10:10.068 --> 10:12.172 [SPEAKER_00]: He, I still wouldn't say he's a wrestler. 10:12.813 --> 10:13.794 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a decent grab with though. 10:13.814 --> 10:16.218 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a former combat BGJ World Champion. 10:16.599 --> 10:17.520 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a good cardio. 10:17.541 --> 10:19.283 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not really sure on this one. 10:20.125 --> 10:22.789 [SPEAKER_00]: I think fan. 10:24.406 --> 10:33.604 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, being in this home country, I think it's pretty competitive on the ground, you know, the time difference is something I'm concerned about, especially like the early of the morning that might be even harder. 10:34.747 --> 10:38.233 [SPEAKER_00]: I still think steel is probably the most well-grounded Friday that has the power advantage. 10:38.414 --> 10:40.117 [SPEAKER_00]: I see steel hurting him a few times. 10:40.758 --> 10:41.821 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that might be the difference. 10:41.841 --> 10:44.085 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say it's a close fight, give me steel by decision. 10:45.095 --> 10:55.507 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you seem to see this match up pretty similarly to the way I do, looking at Dom Marfan, he is a physical specimen. 10:55.587 --> 10:59.672 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not talking about, you know, he looks like a comic book character, but just a physical auditing. 10:59.692 --> 11:01.834 [SPEAKER_02]: He is a very long, lanky, lightweight. 11:03.076 --> 11:05.519 [SPEAKER_02]: As you mentioned, doesn't have very fast hands or feet. 11:05.559 --> 11:06.580 [SPEAKER_02]: He's 11:06.560 --> 11:24.161 [SPEAKER_02]: one of those guys, and I feel as though there are a lot of them in, obviously both the men's and women's divisions, where they are a good grappler, but they don't have the offensive wrestling or just the physical horsepower to get the fight to the ground at the time place, position of their choosing. 11:24.882 --> 11:29.007 [SPEAKER_02]: And because of that, they are kind of dependent on either 11:28.987 --> 11:39.377 [SPEAKER_02]: finding tricky ways to get the fight to the ground, or they're one of the fighters that just needs to sort of wait around, wait around absorb damage until their their opponent either gets hired or makes a mistake. 11:40.278 --> 11:57.154 [SPEAKER_02]: And you can find a way to success there, but whether you turn out to be someone like Mickey Gull that never really gets out of that phase, or one of the fighters that does eventually 11:57.252 --> 12:00.355 [SPEAKER_02]: he has routes to victory as you mentioned steel is a hard charger. 12:00.395 --> 12:01.476 [SPEAKER_02]: He's going to come straight forward. 12:01.897 --> 12:02.898 [SPEAKER_02]: He creates collisions. 12:03.298 --> 12:13.548 [SPEAKER_02]: If he creates a collision where Dom Marfan can just slap a guillotine on him, take his back standing, even do just weird pseudo guard pulling end up on top. 12:14.049 --> 12:15.390 [SPEAKER_02]: He can have steel in trouble. 12:16.371 --> 12:19.735 [SPEAKER_02]: Even if it happens, you mentioned steel can more than take care of himself on the ground. 12:20.075 --> 12:27.242 [SPEAKER_02]: He's a combat, you guys like being in 12:27.644 --> 12:28.987 [SPEAKER_02]: I get why steals the favorite here. 12:29.287 --> 12:31.251 [SPEAKER_02]: I think steal wins comfortably as well. 12:33.015 --> 12:41.973 [SPEAKER_02]: I could see him getting a TKO or a submission that's brought along by punishment on the ground at some point, but I'm with you here. 12:42.013 --> 12:43.476 [SPEAKER_02]: I think he's gonna get a done by decision. 12:45.059 --> 12:51.169 [SPEAKER_02]: Wilter waits her up next at UFC Fight Night 275, as Jonathan McAuliffe and Timba Grimbo Square Off. 12:51.850 --> 12:55.416 [SPEAKER_02]: McAuliffe, the 27-year-old Australian, is 9-in-1 overall. 12:55.917 --> 13:00.004 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 2-in-0 since joining the UFC out of season 8 of Dana White's contender series. 13:00.585 --> 13:07.196 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently at UFC 325 back in January, where he choked Oban Elliott all the way to sleep in the second round. 13:07.757 --> 13:11.623 [SPEAKER_02]: He is looking for his third straight UFC win here against Grimbo. 13:11.806 --> 13:17.335 [SPEAKER_02]: 35 year olds in Bobby and is 14 and six overall foreign three in the UFC. 13:17.756 --> 13:22.825 [SPEAKER_02]: He's on a two fight losing streak stretching back in his case almost a year and a half. 13:22.985 --> 13:27.773 [SPEAKER_02]: He has been prone to injury as well, but we saw him most recently. 13:27.753 --> 13:33.923 [SPEAKER_02]: back in November at UFC fight night Garcia versus Onama where he lost the unanimous decision to Jeremiah Wells. 13:34.263 --> 13:37.909 [SPEAKER_02]: So Grimbo looking to avoid his third straight loss. 13:38.069 --> 13:39.932 [SPEAKER_02]: McCalliff looking to pick up his third straight win. 13:40.433 --> 13:42.076 [SPEAKER_02]: McCalliff is comfortably favored. 13:42.316 --> 13:43.718 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith take a guess of what the line is. 13:44.940 --> 13:45.401 [SPEAKER_00]: Minus. 13:45.942 --> 13:49.327 [SPEAKER_00]: I know bigger than minus two two hundred minus two seventy. 13:50.809 --> 13:52.252 [SPEAKER_02]: He is minus three sixty. 13:52.332 --> 13:55.617 [SPEAKER_02]: Grimbo plus two eighty. 13:56.255 --> 14:09.268 [SPEAKER_02]: It is, I guess it indicates either belief that Grimbo's really, really falling off, or that Mikala for really is. 14:09.367 --> 14:16.394 [SPEAKER_02]: The real deal, I don't know the McCall of his already done better in the UFC than I thought he would. 14:16.414 --> 14:21.479 [SPEAKER_02]: I thought he was just kind of a mid-level prospect, but he's beaten two pretty good fighters thus far. 14:22.560 --> 14:35.712 [SPEAKER_02]: I thought Kevin, you say, was a better, well-terweight than some people that are still on roster, and then I still think Obanelli is kind of a sneaky promising prospect of 170 and he completely throttled them. 14:37.126 --> 14:41.853 [SPEAKER_02]: McCullough already has a good idea of how to use his physicality in MMA. 14:41.913 --> 14:48.003 [SPEAKER_02]: He's a guy that at 27, with just 10 professional fights, seems to have a handle on what his physical tools are. 14:48.163 --> 14:55.294 [SPEAKER_02]: And he's a guy that he is kind of tall for Walter weight, but he's built taller, just long, rangey arms. 14:55.334 --> 14:57.658 [SPEAKER_02]: He just, he seems taller than he is in the cage. 14:58.259 --> 15:03.066 [SPEAKER_02]: And he's put that to work in his striking as well as his grappling. 15:04.632 --> 15:11.724 [SPEAKER_02]: And the way his grappling works, I think, kind of plays into what Grimbo likes to give his opponents. 15:11.784 --> 15:20.780 [SPEAKER_02]: At this point, Tember Grimbo has a known propensity to crash headlong into his opponents' front headlock. 15:20.800 --> 15:26.269 [SPEAKER_02]: At this point, two of his UFC losses are due to some kind of front choke, like guillotine and a conda. 15:27.886 --> 15:39.508 [SPEAKER_02]: between that and Grimbo not always having the best fight IQ, at least in terms of not having the best backup plan, if his initial assault doesn't just knock the other guy out or put him completely on his heels. 15:40.290 --> 15:42.454 [SPEAKER_02]: I do like McCullough in this one pretty big. 15:43.135 --> 15:49.127 [SPEAKER_02]: I think he probably holds his own on the feet unless Grimbo just absolutely smashes him with a single punch. 15:49.889 --> 15:50.670 [SPEAKER_02]: And, 15:51.224 --> 16:01.889 [SPEAKER_02]: The longer the fight goes on, the more Grimbo starts to get tired, the more McCullough starts to figure him out, the more likely it is that we get one of those collisions that just plays right into what McCullough wants to do. 16:03.293 --> 16:05.177 [SPEAKER_02]: I think McCullough probably just gaiting them. 16:05.478 --> 16:07.984 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me Jonathan McCullough by second round gaiting. 16:11.457 --> 16:26.237 [SPEAKER_00]: it's funny like he's such a big favorite but then they haven't buried on on this card like second second fight of the night like you think I mean he's the people want tie to evasive versus Louis Sutherland and the people are going to get what they want there. 16:26.257 --> 16:37.532 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean I get that you know I ought to see to get that and make art like they two of us is and you know he's like the hero of that world so I do understand I just 16:37.512 --> 16:40.836 [SPEAKER_00]: My man, my man, my call is getting distributed. 16:40.856 --> 16:43.455 [SPEAKER_00]: In Grimbo, I mean, he's had moments in the UFC. 16:43.570 --> 16:47.113 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I am worried a little bit about Germos like mental toughness. 16:47.514 --> 16:48.034 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll say this. 16:49.015 --> 16:55.020 [SPEAKER_00]: He absolutely folded against Vicente Luget in, you know, the biggest match of his career. 16:55.300 --> 16:56.522 [SPEAKER_00]: Makes you think he's a front runner. 16:57.603 --> 16:59.644 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, his physical skills obviously is a long and lengthy guy. 16:59.664 --> 17:01.986 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say a lot of the loud on this on this card. 17:02.947 --> 17:04.449 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a decent striker. 17:04.949 --> 17:11.535 [SPEAKER_00]: Despite that long reach, he likes to slide inside and brawl a little bit, throw some 17:11.515 --> 17:15.160 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to Tim Elliott style, but he's got some fairly fast hands. 17:15.180 --> 17:16.121 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a big kicking game. 17:16.923 --> 17:19.106 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to close the distance and battle and clinch. 17:19.166 --> 17:20.868 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a good wrestler, and he wrestles a lot. 17:21.329 --> 17:28.038 [SPEAKER_00]: He will sometimes shoot on his opponent's two far away while he's setting it up, but he has to make up both his long arms. 17:28.479 --> 17:30.321 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets to fight to the ground, a nice top game. 17:31.022 --> 17:33.726 [SPEAKER_00]: He has no issues stalling on top group. 17:33.706 --> 17:41.154 [SPEAKER_00]: What he lets his hands go, he has pretty good grind of pound, he's got, you know, big sobs on his record, he's got six sobs on his record, I think. 17:42.075 --> 17:45.578 [SPEAKER_00]: But if you put him on his back, he's not the same, he's the top side grappler. 17:46.639 --> 18:03.477 [SPEAKER_00]: We call it, because not like, not the best athlete, he's a bit of a stationary target on the feet, but he's a South boy, he throws a nice straight left, he can load up and shots a little bit, a big kicking him though, he will throw some big away kick, but he kicks 18:04.570 --> 18:10.783 [SPEAKER_00]: I like that he's been switching off the tempo of his kicks again guys guess and he crushed Kevin Drew say with a high kick. 18:11.544 --> 18:14.991 [SPEAKER_00]: He said he set up his punches off of his kicks which is nice to see. 18:15.973 --> 18:17.296 [SPEAKER_00]: He hasn't checked like kicks though. 18:17.857 --> 18:20.222 [SPEAKER_00]: He will look for take downs. 18:20.262 --> 18:23.288 [SPEAKER_00]: He's usually get some for the bylock. 18:23.960 --> 18:26.824 [SPEAKER_00]: though I still wouldn't say he's a good wrestler. 18:26.904 --> 18:28.226 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a bad defensive wrestler. 18:28.947 --> 18:32.192 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets on top, he does move to a better position. 18:32.232 --> 18:33.033 [SPEAKER_00]: He is the mission threat. 18:33.113 --> 18:34.556 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he just subdued on Elliott. 18:35.717 --> 18:36.599 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a good G.A.T. 18:36.619 --> 18:37.159 [SPEAKER_00]: and he's mentioned. 18:37.500 --> 18:42.027 [SPEAKER_00]: He also can get subs off of his back and he changed sub together, sub together together. 18:42.067 --> 18:43.909 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think this is a fun scrap. 18:43.949 --> 18:49.157 [SPEAKER_00]: I expect the line to be much closer because Grimbo has the advantage. 18:49.137 --> 18:58.212 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I should get advantage because he has an avenue in victory where he can do he can if he can make this a complete offensive I don't know just make this a complete wrestling match. 18:58.233 --> 19:07.348 [SPEAKER_00]: I should say I think he could do well with a call if he had to See, that's got to attract his neck and everything and you know, I'm saying if it's just like a wrestling match now to do some match he could win 19:07.970 --> 19:12.776 [SPEAKER_00]: I just think if he takes McCall of down, I think the girls will be enough for him. 19:13.377 --> 19:19.965 [SPEAKER_00]: Whether it be enough to get back to his fee or he'll threaten with submissions, just just kind of stay busy. 19:21.046 --> 19:23.929 [SPEAKER_00]: I think when he gets on the feed, I think he kicks, Grumble a lot. 19:24.050 --> 19:25.171 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he actually might catch him. 19:26.232 --> 19:29.236 [SPEAKER_00]: I like this submission call, but I might go with an echo. 19:29.296 --> 19:31.879 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say, I'm going to say he shows off his hands, shows off his kicks. 19:32.420 --> 19:35.884 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say, I'm going to say McCall of gets a second round to go. 19:37.130 --> 19:42.837 [SPEAKER_02]: We head next to the middleweight division where Ben Johnson makes his UFC debut against Wesley Schultz. 19:43.357 --> 19:47.162 [SPEAKER_02]: Johnson, the 35-year-old Australian, is five and one overall. 19:47.803 --> 19:53.450 [SPEAKER_02]: I mentioned that this will be his UFC debut, but he is the outgoing eternal MMA middleweight champ. 19:53.650 --> 19:55.993 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently there almost two years ago. 19:56.714 --> 20:07.288 [SPEAKER_02]: So been on the shelf for a long while, relatively few career fights for a 35-year-old guy debut in the UFC, but here he goes in his home country against shults. 20:07.268 --> 20:09.932 [SPEAKER_02]: 29-year-old Wisconsinite, eight and three overall. 20:10.493 --> 20:15.021 [SPEAKER_02]: Owen won since joining the UFC as a two-time veteran of Dana White's contender series. 20:15.502 --> 20:28.303 [SPEAKER_02]: He lost two seasons ago, then one last fall, made as UFC debut just a couple months ago at UFC Fight Night Marine Overseas Cavanaugh, where he was subjected to the terrifying power of the penis. 20:28.784 --> 20:31.268 [SPEAKER_02]: He got blasted in half around by a dummy on penis. 20:34.538 --> 20:41.765 [SPEAKER_02]: Johnson is your favorite here, but it is one of the closer lines on the card, as he is just minus 170, Schultz plus 140. 20:42.966 --> 20:43.427 [SPEAKER_02]: Let me know. 20:44.388 --> 20:47.310 [SPEAKER_02]: This is John Stun, not John Sun. 20:47.431 --> 20:50.994 [SPEAKER_02]: So it's like no known penis vulnerability. 20:51.875 --> 20:57.660 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, God, you know, it's not good because go. 20:59.722 --> 21:02.385 [SPEAKER_02]: Tell me what you think gets 21:02.568 --> 21:14.282 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh man this this is I think is actually where the hardest fights to pick on the card I don't really feel like I have a good read on on either guy of the shelts You know, let's see them on the feet. 21:14.342 --> 21:22.532 [SPEAKER_00]: He's he's he's a kickbox on the feet nothing really special though I mean, I know he has a big kickbox on background But he really forgot he has a kickbox on background He wants to get the by the ground. 21:22.552 --> 21:23.233 [SPEAKER_00]: He wants a rapper. 21:23.273 --> 21:29.281 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a decent wrestler If he gets twice the ground, he advances position on the ground well He's got some good ground in pound. 21:29.321 --> 21:31.343 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got five subs on his record 21:31.323 --> 21:35.930 [SPEAKER_00]: Johnson, it's hard to get excited about a guy that is already 35 years old. 21:36.390 --> 21:37.692 [SPEAKER_00]: He hasn't fought in two years. 21:38.974 --> 21:50.952 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a big guy, he's tall and lanky, a very traditional mojtai style where he stands high with his hands, almost like, you know, that traditional Thailand. 21:50.932 --> 22:08.468 [SPEAKER_00]: uh... striker uh... he he will uh... as much as last night he was avoiding strikes by turtle not below which is concerning uh... but that's his hands go i like his hands got a big straight right uh... he looks for elbows in the pocket uh... hard kicks he likes to get a clenching and he's got a good 22:08.448 --> 22:11.413 [SPEAKER_00]: Moitai Clinch, some good strikes inside. 22:11.934 --> 22:13.757 [SPEAKER_00]: He will look for us, you know, the wrestle. 22:13.957 --> 22:15.119 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a submission out of himself. 22:15.139 --> 22:15.861 [SPEAKER_00]: He got a lot of subs. 22:16.682 --> 22:21.751 [SPEAKER_00]: We could defense a wrestling so I don't have a very good read on shirts and I'm definitely not sure about Johnson. 22:21.831 --> 22:25.898 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't feel like I, I don't feel very confident in my pick. 22:26.579 --> 22:29.223 [SPEAKER_00]: What I've seen, Johnson can win on the feet and on the ground. 22:29.384 --> 22:30.465 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say Johnson gets a done. 22:30.485 --> 22:32.008 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me Johnson my second round to go. 22:33.423 --> 22:35.806 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm with you on Johnson. 22:36.566 --> 22:37.728 [SPEAKER_02]: He hasn't fought in two years. 22:37.948 --> 22:44.435 [SPEAKER_02]: So what relatively little tape there is on him, there's no guarantee it's even that valid anymore. 22:46.277 --> 23:02.535 [SPEAKER_02]: With a guy with six career fights and two years since the last time he fought, there's a possibility he could have improved in that time if he was a 25 year old, I'd say, hey, look for him to be better than the last time we saw him at 35, he might be worse. 23:02.752 --> 23:07.019 [SPEAKER_02]: What looks like your top kind of note on Wesley Schultz is the same as mine. 23:08.140 --> 23:14.510 [SPEAKER_02]: Guy that comes from a kickboxing background, but is not just willing to wrestle, but almost seems eager to wrestle. 23:14.871 --> 23:16.874 [SPEAKER_02]: I go back to his first appearance on the contender series. 23:17.295 --> 23:28.472 [SPEAKER_02]: He's fighting Mansor Abdul Malik, a guy that is physically, visibly just bigger and stronger than him and comes from a wrestling background, just a literal college wrestler, 23:29.819 --> 23:36.431 [SPEAKER_02]: Schultz is the first one to try to take the fight to the ground, like neither of me would try to take down for the whole first seven minutes of the fight, middle of the second round. 23:36.792 --> 23:42.061 [SPEAKER_02]: It's Schultz, like trying to get a take down on the college wrestler, like who can explain it? 23:43.784 --> 23:51.578 [SPEAKER_02]: If that turns into a well-rounded skill set for him and the ability to go and be comfortable anywhere the fight goes, that's obviously a good thing. 23:52.179 --> 23:54.223 [SPEAKER_02]: If it turns into him abandoning 23:54.794 --> 23:59.121 [SPEAKER_02]: the top shelf skills that got them to the UFC in the first place, obviously it isn't. 24:00.383 --> 24:02.005 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna say flat out. 24:02.987 --> 24:05.611 [SPEAKER_02]: It's impossible to have an accurate take on this fight. 24:05.891 --> 24:16.788 [SPEAKER_02]: It's two guys with six and 10 or 11 professional fights respectively, one of whom we haven't seen fight in two years and we've never seen fight at this level. 24:17.750 --> 24:19.352 [SPEAKER_02]: But I like Schultz in this one. 24:20.113 --> 24:22.557 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me Schultz in the slight upset. 24:24.275 --> 24:30.640 [SPEAKER_02]: both of these guys are clearly going to be comfortable wherever the fight goes, but 24:31.413 --> 24:49.202 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm choosing to look at Schultz's last few performances as the look of somebody trying to expand and complete his skill set, become a complete mixed martial artist on top of that being the younger guy and the busier guy against a dude that is turned 34 and 35 since last time we saw him. 24:50.103 --> 24:52.828 [SPEAKER_02]: I'll take Schultz by decision, but again, it's a zero confidence pick. 24:52.908 --> 24:54.771 [SPEAKER_02]: These guys are largely unknowns. 24:55.595 --> 24:59.921 [SPEAKER_00]: And then he gets Matt with a guy's name, like Joe Cox, something. 25:03.526 --> 25:06.670 [SPEAKER_02]: He'll be fighting in UFC McCow, 2026 against someone named Wang. 25:07.311 --> 25:18.666 [SPEAKER_02]: Up next on the UFC Perth Prelimbs is a band-and-white matchup between Colby Fickness and Vince Morales. 25:18.950 --> 25:22.515 [SPEAKER_02]: The 26 year old Australian is 8 in 1 overall. 25:23.036 --> 25:24.778 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 1 in 1 in the UFC. 25:25.379 --> 25:38.157 [SPEAKER_02]: He made his debut a little over a year ago, losing a decision to Alexandria, Tuporia, then came back in September at UFC Fight Night, Oldberg versus Reyes, and won a unanimous decision over Juicy Esmosasa. 25:38.137 --> 25:41.681 [SPEAKER_02]: he will look for his second straight win here against Morales. 25:41.701 --> 25:44.844 [SPEAKER_02]: 35 year old from Idaho is 16 and 10 overall. 25:45.485 --> 25:54.134 [SPEAKER_02]: He is a miserable 3 and 8 in the UFC and he is an even more miserable 0 and 3 since being re-signed a little over a year ago. 25:54.995 --> 25:58.538 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought twice last year, both within the first quarter of the year. 25:58.919 --> 26:08.008 [SPEAKER_02]: He lost a Elijah Smith and Raul Rosa's junior both by decision, but this is his 26:08.917 --> 26:10.880 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith, think this is your favorite. 26:11.101 --> 26:13.926 [SPEAKER_02]: This is actually one of the closer fights on the card on the books. 26:14.026 --> 26:18.474 [SPEAKER_02]: He is minus 160, Morales plus 130 as your underdog. 26:20.657 --> 26:29.052 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna flip this one to you first, but I feel as though on last week's preview, I mentioned there were numerous fighters on the card where 26:29.268 --> 26:44.180 [SPEAKER_02]: for a mixture of being on long losing streaks and not having fought in over a year, I kind of assumed they had either been cut or quietly retired, stick Vince Morales in that category, nothing against him at all, like every single fighter in the world, get the bag. 26:44.400 --> 26:49.892 [SPEAKER_02]: If UFC wants to give you another fight, they want to give you another 15 and 15 or 20 and 20. 26:50.125 --> 26:51.187 [SPEAKER_02]: why wouldn't you take it? 26:51.908 --> 26:53.712 [SPEAKER_02]: It's more money before you have to go do whatever. 26:54.413 --> 26:57.419 [SPEAKER_02]: But having said that, what else is Vince Morales here for? 26:57.459 --> 26:58.641 [SPEAKER_02]: That's my whole thing. 26:59.142 --> 27:05.013 [SPEAKER_02]: This is one of the closer lines on the card key and even if this wins, I'm not sure what we learn about them. 27:05.033 --> 27:08.500 [SPEAKER_02]: Other than, he smiles real big when an Australian crowd cheers for him. 27:09.361 --> 27:12.387 [SPEAKER_02]: Tell me if you feel differently and tell me who you think wins. 27:16.636 --> 27:18.782 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this is a really bad fight. 27:20.787 --> 27:26.722 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, my first notes on, you know, I get, I totally agree with Vince Marales. 27:26.742 --> 27:28.266 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, um, 27:29.528 --> 27:35.618 [SPEAKER_00]: And thickness, like, my notes and thickness is what he was the last time was like not a UC level guy. 27:35.638 --> 27:43.370 [SPEAKER_00]: So versus Vince Browns, who you said is what 3 and 8 and you're see 3 and 8, 0 and 3 this time. 27:43.991 --> 27:44.792 [SPEAKER_02]: Like he was cut. 27:44.872 --> 27:48.077 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, back in 2022 they brought it back and he's 0 and 3. 27:48.142 --> 27:51.227 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, surprisingly, it's the three wins of the UFC. 27:53.130 --> 27:56.075 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a counter striker, he likes to slip and rip. 27:56.897 --> 27:59.581 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a decent striker, he's pretty accurate. 28:00.263 --> 28:01.525 [SPEAKER_00]: He's not the fastest though. 28:01.605 --> 28:06.253 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we saw really struggle with the speed of Elijah Smith, which a lot of people will. 28:06.553 --> 28:08.937 [SPEAKER_00]: But Elijah Smith seems like a real legit prospect. 28:09.658 --> 28:13.525 [SPEAKER_00]: He also hated being pressured against where we're all 28:14.720 --> 28:15.843 [SPEAKER_00]: He does have some power though. 28:16.545 --> 28:18.550 [SPEAKER_00]: Defensively, he eats a lot of shots. 28:19.152 --> 28:20.194 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't check late gigs. 28:20.214 --> 28:21.678 [SPEAKER_00]: He goes back to the Jonathan Martinez fight. 28:21.879 --> 28:23.523 [SPEAKER_00]: Martinez destroyed him with late gigs. 28:24.265 --> 28:25.629 [SPEAKER_00]: He's an underrated wrestler. 28:25.649 --> 28:26.711 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got some good entries. 28:26.731 --> 28:28.135 [SPEAKER_00]: He's pretty good at winning scrambles. 28:28.857 --> 28:31.564 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't need to improve his overall take down defense. 28:31.831 --> 28:45.598 [SPEAKER_00]: he has like two subs on his record which is not that obviously not that in person for guys but you know veteran in the sport but it and but he has a good proof in necktie he looks for that so that's kind of fun but he's been sub three times himself. 28:47.001 --> 28:53.333 [SPEAKER_00]: Thickness I mean like I said he's a low level guy he's a bad athlete he will move a lot 28:53.498 --> 28:58.453 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, because he's very uncomfortable on the fees, he's striking his very right boxing is bad. 28:58.875 --> 29:00.199 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of single strikes. 29:00.239 --> 29:03.228 [SPEAKER_00]: He lacks power because he doesn't set his legs. 29:03.770 --> 29:05.736 [SPEAKER_00]: His strike in defense is bad. 29:05.868 --> 29:07.931 [SPEAKER_00]: He does have a big kicking game now. 29:08.792 --> 29:09.994 [SPEAKER_00]: He throws some hard kicks. 29:11.316 --> 29:14.640 [SPEAKER_00]: He will look for some takedowns, but he's not a very good wrestler. 29:14.741 --> 29:17.705 [SPEAKER_00]: His entries are like the art good. 29:18.185 --> 29:21.210 [SPEAKER_00]: He does look for some by-law takedowns. 29:21.750 --> 29:25.716 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets the fight to the ground, he looks to move to a better position. 29:27.282 --> 29:28.985 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, decent grain of pound. 29:29.346 --> 29:30.869 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he's a solid grappler. 29:30.909 --> 29:31.871 [SPEAKER_00]: Like he is a mission threat. 29:31.931 --> 29:33.755 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not very high on either. 29:33.775 --> 29:35.118 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm I am surprised by the line. 29:35.619 --> 29:37.162 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, I actually thought more hours would be fair. 29:37.222 --> 29:37.803 [SPEAKER_00]: And I get it. 29:37.823 --> 29:42.693 [SPEAKER_00]: They're in Australia and, and, and Morales is definitely not a good record. 29:42.733 --> 29:45.038 [SPEAKER_00]: So I just, 29:45.018 --> 29:51.985 [SPEAKER_00]: I can't put on picking this, but I think Morales wins. 29:52.306 --> 29:54.889 [SPEAKER_00]: Morales, I think he's much better on the feed. 29:54.909 --> 29:56.851 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he pieces him up. 29:56.871 --> 29:58.332 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's stuff to take down attempts. 29:59.133 --> 30:02.417 [SPEAKER_00]: I think Morales overwhelms them with strikes. 30:02.557 --> 30:06.080 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he extends his overalls with strikes, overalls with volume. 30:06.761 --> 30:12.207 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he extends his own contract with the UFC, and because of this, 30:14.363 --> 30:17.046 [SPEAKER_02]: I like the breakdown there. 30:17.086 --> 30:38.667 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's worth noting that while Morales has lost three in a row, and if you go back to his last run in the UFC, he's technically lost five in a row in the octagon, but they have been using him as the other guy to get kind of other prospects and rising contenders over for so long. 30:38.727 --> 30:40.489 [SPEAKER_02]: Like these are the five people he's lost to. 30:41.161 --> 30:49.510 [SPEAKER_02]: Jonathan Martinez, Miles Johns, and both of those were in 2022 when those guys were a lot more on the come-up than they are now. 30:49.950 --> 31:01.963 [SPEAKER_02]: And then this time around Taylor Lapolis, Elijah Smith, Ralehlerosis Jr. All right, he's, this Ralehosis been the designated opponent for so many guys. 31:02.303 --> 31:04.486 [SPEAKER_02]: And he's the designated opponent for thickness here. 31:04.526 --> 31:10.392 [SPEAKER_02]: It's who can we find that Colby thickness 31:11.570 --> 31:13.373 [SPEAKER_02]: reasonable chance of beating? 31:14.936 --> 31:18.802 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, thickness is going to be fun to have around for however long he sticks. 31:20.225 --> 31:26.355 [SPEAKER_02]: We always make fun of fighters whose nickname does not really match what they bring like, you know, Jillian, the savage Robertson. 31:27.497 --> 31:36.733 [SPEAKER_02]: It's got to be tough when your actual given name or your actual surname does not match because his name is thickness and he's one of 31:36.713 --> 31:40.986 [SPEAKER_02]: But he is what I thought we were getting when Steve or I said join the UFC. 31:41.367 --> 31:48.529 [SPEAKER_02]: A guy that was pretty good, regionally, but not much of an athlete, and the things that he was good at regionally. 31:48.931 --> 31:50.033 [SPEAKER_02]: It wasn't going to carry over. 31:50.053 --> 31:52.316 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, he's not going to be able to do that to UFC level guys. 31:52.557 --> 31:53.638 [SPEAKER_02]: I was wrong about her, SEG. 31:54.059 --> 31:56.102 [SPEAKER_02]: Thus far, I've been right about thickness. 31:56.783 --> 31:58.586 [SPEAKER_02]: I've been on the fence about this one. 31:59.066 --> 32:07.579 [SPEAKER_02]: And this is one of the very few times in five years plus 200 plus events of doing these previous together that I'm openly letting myself be swayed by Keith Shilinfokes. 32:08.341 --> 32:11.045 [SPEAKER_02]: It is a unanimous upset pick. 32:11.405 --> 32:14.189 [SPEAKER_02]: But if we're wrong, it's all Keith's fault. 32:14.209 --> 32:15.812 [SPEAKER_02]: Because I was on the fence. 32:15.832 --> 32:17.875 [SPEAKER_02]: I was going to quietly feel the coin over here. 32:17.855 --> 32:20.946 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take a draw or pass this up to take a DQ. 32:23.315 --> 32:28.253 [SPEAKER_02]: Middle-Wades are up next at UFC Perth as Jacob Malcoon squares off against Gerald Mirchart. 32:29.633 --> 32:33.520 [SPEAKER_02]: Malcolm, the 30-year-old Australian, is nine and three overall. 32:34.161 --> 32:41.013 [SPEAKER_02]: He is five and three in the UFC, and he's on a two-fight winning streak, stretching back basically two full years at this point. 32:41.574 --> 32:47.364 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently back in January at UFC 325, where he won a unanimous decision over Torres Finney. 32:48.026 --> 32:50.470 [SPEAKER_02]: He will look for his third straight win in the UFC. 32:50.510 --> 32:54.477 [SPEAKER_02]: That would be his first three-fight win streak in the UFC, against Mirchard. 32:55.503 --> 32:59.689 [SPEAKER_02]: 38 year old Wisconsinite is 37 and 21 overall. 33:00.330 --> 33:02.553 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 12 and 13 in the UFC. 33:03.454 --> 33:14.169 [SPEAKER_02]: And while he is had streaks of impressive wins as well as streaks of crushing futility, he is definitely in the futility phase here as he is on a forefight losing streak. 33:14.830 --> 33:17.494 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought three times last year. 33:17.474 --> 33:21.100 [SPEAKER_02]: losing to Brad to Varaz, Mihal Olekshachuk and Kyle Docus. 33:21.580 --> 33:28.511 [SPEAKER_02]: The most recent of those, the Docus fight was over in just 50 seconds that was at UFC 322 back in November. 33:28.872 --> 33:34.521 [SPEAKER_02]: So, Mirashart never say never, but presumably fighting for his job here. 33:34.721 --> 33:36.083 [SPEAKER_02]: He is not favored to get it done. 33:36.163 --> 33:38.246 [SPEAKER_02]: I've already told you the melcoon is the favorite. 33:38.527 --> 33:40.931 [SPEAKER_02]: I've already told you he's the biggest favorite on the card, Keith. 33:41.612 --> 33:44.376 [SPEAKER_02]: Take a guess at what the line is. 33:45.335 --> 33:55.567 [SPEAKER_00]: He should be like minus 3 million, but You said it's gonna be one of the biggest ones of the year, so I'll be like minus 1200. 33:55.607 --> 33:57.750 [SPEAKER_02]: Ding ding ding. 33:57.770 --> 33:59.272 [SPEAKER_02]: There are minus 1200s out there. 33:59.612 --> 34:02.956 [SPEAKER_02]: I grabbed minus 1100 from Alcoon near Sharp plus 650. 34:05.019 --> 34:05.679 [SPEAKER_02]: I'll say this. 34:07.141 --> 34:09.604 [SPEAKER_02]: Gerald Mirageart still has 34:10.478 --> 34:19.240 [SPEAKER_02]: a fast and nasty guillotine that he can finish standing as well as falling to guard and melcoon wrestles and shoots a lot. 34:19.945 --> 34:23.789 [SPEAKER_02]: There is, there is an avenue to victory for the underdog here. 34:24.270 --> 34:30.857 [SPEAKER_02]: And if you're taking Mirashart, one step away from your computer right now, go outside, touch some grass, stop betting on MMA. 34:31.338 --> 34:41.229 [SPEAKER_02]: But if you're going to bet on Mirashart, you might as well take this omission because July 19th of 2013, is the last time Gerald Mirashart won a decision. 34:42.790 --> 34:49.598 [SPEAKER_02]: All right, we're coming up on 13 years, well before he even joined the UFC. 34:50.236 --> 34:56.544 [SPEAKER_02]: I think he has like eight wins by EAT and since then, uh, Mir short is a known quantity. 34:56.665 --> 35:00.970 [SPEAKER_02]: He's 37 at this point, but even at 27, he was one of the worst athletes in the UFC. 35:01.391 --> 35:04.215 [SPEAKER_02]: He's got a pretty, he's got a good size frame for the division. 35:04.255 --> 35:05.957 [SPEAKER_02]: He's tall, got a big wingspan. 35:06.758 --> 35:10.523 [SPEAKER_02]: He tries to be a composed and, 35:10.503 --> 35:28.528 [SPEAKER_02]: technically sound striker and for the most part he is like when he gets blasted it's not because he's doing something silly and has his hands nowhere near his face or he's like hopping around on one foot just that he's so slow that people are clocking him even though he's got his hands up 35:28.998 --> 35:47.454 [SPEAKER_02]: For a while, he could sort of do the Darren Elkins thing, where, yeah, you'd beat him up for a while, but he's gonna wait for you to get tired, make a mistake, actually start kind of tee and off on you on the feet, and then wait for you to either come crashing or shoot a bad take down and get a tee and you. 35:48.816 --> 35:57.283 [SPEAKER_02]: He's gotten even slower, and he no longer has the durability to make that work, which is why he's starting to get blasted. 35:58.850 --> 36:01.273 [SPEAKER_02]: Malcolm, pleasant surprise in the UFC. 36:01.614 --> 36:10.026 [SPEAKER_02]: When he joined the UFC, it really just seemed to be, it's a card in Australia, we're packing it with all the Australian and New Zealander fighters we can find. 36:10.767 --> 36:17.095 [SPEAKER_02]: And this guy is Robert Whittaker's primary training partner, he'll get two or three fights and be gone. 36:17.556 --> 36:19.359 [SPEAKER_02]: Instead, he's been a pleasant surprise. 36:19.659 --> 36:23.464 [SPEAKER_02]: And honestly, he's been a pleasant surprise in some of the same ways that Whittaker has. 36:24.065 --> 36:25.347 [SPEAKER_02]: They're both 36:25.327 --> 36:38.765 [SPEAKER_02]: among the shortest, most compact middleweights in the division, and both of them better wrestlers than they got credit for, at least early on. 36:38.945 --> 36:51.081 [SPEAKER_02]: We figured out pretty quickly that Whitaker was a good wrestler, but Malcolm right out of the box, a good ground fighter, I think he's quicker and more athletic than I gave him credit for early on. 36:51.517 --> 37:01.494 [SPEAKER_02]: He's been a good addition to the UFC, like he's not beating great fighters, but he's also except for the Cody Brunnage fight, which was a weird disqualification. 37:01.754 --> 37:02.956 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not losing the bad ones either. 37:04.118 --> 37:09.327 [SPEAKER_02]: This is a terrible matchup from AirShart, but that's because Mirashart shouldn't be in the UFC anymore. 37:09.467 --> 37:12.352 [SPEAKER_02]: Everyone in the middleweight division, the bad matchup from Mirashart. 37:12.852 --> 37:18.081 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, Koon in particular is a bad matchup from AirShart, because he's not going to make the mistake. 37:18.837 --> 37:23.804 [SPEAKER_02]: that I just said represents mere sure it's only real avenue to victory. 37:25.947 --> 37:27.489 [SPEAKER_02]: Malcolm is capable of wrestling. 37:27.630 --> 37:37.704 [SPEAKER_02]: He's also capable of doing a surprisingly outside striking battle for such a short guy, but more importantly, he's smart enough to do whichever one gives him the best route to victory. 37:38.725 --> 37:44.153 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's going to knock mere short out in the first round and he's going to do it without giving mere short a chance to do any of the things that he does well. 37:45.331 --> 37:56.588 [SPEAKER_02]: There are fighters with Malcolm same basic tools that I would say, yeah, mirrored to real live dog here because fighter X is very likely to give mirrored the chance to do the one thing you can do to win this fight. 37:56.829 --> 37:57.389 [SPEAKER_02]: Malcolm isn't. 37:57.590 --> 37:58.852 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me Malcolm my first round knockout. 37:59.473 --> 38:04.460 [SPEAKER_02]: And this might be one of the ones where it's 11 significant strikes to zero when it's over 90 seconds. 38:06.103 --> 38:06.964 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, sorry. 38:06.984 --> 38:10.309 [SPEAKER_00]: I get as like a thought that up for you talking, I guess. 38:10.289 --> 38:37.579 [SPEAKER_00]: just looking at a pair of martial arts stuff like, yeah, you're saying like, yeah, I'm just such a bad style of signature about thinking like, who could your martial art be right now, do you see this, this, this, dare you, you know, I hate, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, maybe by disqualification, she like rakes his eyes or something. 38:40.225 --> 38:45.534 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, he's he was always one of our guys, but I mean, it's obviously he's got a twilight of his career. 38:46.656 --> 38:47.357 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a South boy. 38:47.397 --> 38:52.065 [SPEAKER_00]: He tries to be guys without put the problem as he can't sustain his output, like you did in the past. 38:52.246 --> 38:55.091 [SPEAKER_00]: His striking was never, you know, his strength anyways. 38:55.251 --> 38:57.735 [SPEAKER_00]: His hands speed is really bad now. 38:58.416 --> 39:00.881 [SPEAKER_00]: He throws a jab, but he gets hit way too much. 39:00.901 --> 39:03.465 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't, you know, as counters, he does it. 39:03.445 --> 39:07.991 [SPEAKER_00]: move his head, his durability is gone, and Michelle will say they're just ran right through. 39:08.031 --> 39:13.599 [SPEAKER_00]: I've got a first run on TKO, but besides just getting knocked out, he's not reacting to the strikes well before that. 39:13.639 --> 39:17.645 [SPEAKER_00]: He seems like every punch that lands hard, so he'll still throw some big kicks. 39:18.306 --> 39:19.407 [SPEAKER_00]: He will still look to wrestle. 39:20.008 --> 39:25.636 [SPEAKER_00]: Definitely more of a BJJ grappler, but he's, you know, to get the fight to the ground as entries are slow, which we'll have to set up. 39:26.016 --> 39:26.517 [SPEAKER_00]: He's 39:28.167 --> 39:35.137 [SPEAKER_00]: is best chances is the other guy trying to initiate grappling and he scrambles and he finds something in a scramble. 39:35.197 --> 39:36.719 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a bad defensive wrestler. 39:36.739 --> 39:40.965 [SPEAKER_00]: He makes it worse for the jump scar, but I don't hate what he jumps jumps. 39:41.225 --> 39:42.647 [SPEAKER_00]: I should jump to the advantage of that guy's. 39:42.667 --> 39:45.331 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, because that's his best chance of winning. 39:45.391 --> 39:50.398 [SPEAKER_00]: Now he's he has a good grapple is his best avenue of victory is catcher this mission in a scramble. 39:51.480 --> 39:53.162 [SPEAKER_00]: He can get subs and kind of all 39:53.142 --> 39:58.611 [SPEAKER_00]: positions, the problem is he, he will play for a subwoofer's back instead of trying to get back to his feet. 40:00.294 --> 40:02.738 [SPEAKER_00]: Malkoon, Malkoon's a well-rounded fighter. 40:03.079 --> 40:04.161 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a volume strike on the feet. 40:04.201 --> 40:06.445 [SPEAKER_00]: He usually beats guys with his cardio. 40:07.006 --> 40:11.914 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes some margin down, constantly attacking on the straight line though. 40:12.836 --> 40:16.602 [SPEAKER_00]: So he could walk into a counter strike and he's going to have to cut some angles. 40:16.582 --> 40:20.127 [SPEAKER_00]: It works fine a good hard jab and he attacks with big combinations. 40:20.848 --> 40:23.672 [SPEAKER_00]: He can look first overhand right a little bit too much from my liking. 40:24.594 --> 40:25.996 [SPEAKER_00]: He has some power. 40:26.977 --> 40:27.959 [SPEAKER_00]: Doesn't really kick. 40:28.980 --> 40:31.924 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a high IQ. 40:32.585 --> 40:37.052 [SPEAKER_00]: He's good at getting like opportunities to take down to the right time. 40:37.392 --> 40:38.314 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a good wrestler. 40:39.335 --> 40:44.142 [SPEAKER_00]: Though he needs to set up his entries more behind his strikes. 40:44.122 --> 40:50.690 [SPEAKER_00]: Even though when he's sprawled out, though he's relentless to get those takedowns, he will close a distance in grind. 40:51.871 --> 40:53.673 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to use like a snatch single. 40:55.355 --> 40:57.658 [SPEAKER_00]: We just aren't reaching for takedowns against Torres Finney. 40:58.960 --> 41:04.867 [SPEAKER_00]: Instead of shooting, but he's also very physically strong that he's still going to get those snatch guys out. 41:05.748 --> 41:07.530 [SPEAKER_00]: He has taken out so many guys. 41:08.351 --> 41:11.715 [SPEAKER_00]: And if he gets to fight with the ground, he's got some smuggled in time game. 41:12.472 --> 41:18.017 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's the minus, whatever he said, minus level 100 favor, so what I mean, this is such a mismatch. 41:18.037 --> 41:19.919 [SPEAKER_00]: Malcolm is better than Merchett everywhere. 41:20.860 --> 41:23.642 [SPEAKER_00]: The only question is how quick does Malcolm finish him? 41:24.703 --> 41:25.284 [SPEAKER_00]: How would he do? 41:25.344 --> 41:26.225 [SPEAKER_00]: I say, he finished him. 41:26.265 --> 41:28.206 [SPEAKER_00]: Quite, I say he kills right on the gate and knocks him out. 41:32.550 --> 41:36.294 [SPEAKER_00]: But what are the odds of, like, I'm Malcolm by stoppage? 41:37.035 --> 41:39.677 [SPEAKER_00]: If you can get Malcolm at, 41:39.910 --> 41:42.254 [SPEAKER_00]: under minus 300 to win by stoppage. 41:42.315 --> 41:43.497 [SPEAKER_00]: I would love and give me that. 41:43.577 --> 41:45.601 [SPEAKER_00]: That's my lot for that. 41:45.621 --> 41:49.368 [SPEAKER_00]: But that anything under minus 300 for Malcolm first opposite. 41:50.470 --> 41:54.037 [SPEAKER_00]: And when I say, I mean, better, like, my 250 minus 200 is like that. 41:55.119 --> 41:56.141 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm assuming it's probably huge. 41:56.161 --> 41:58.365 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's probably like minus 650 or something. 41:59.508 --> 42:02.914 [SPEAKER_02]: Under two and a half rounds is like minus 180. 42:03.181 --> 42:03.722 [SPEAKER_02]: That's how bad. 42:03.742 --> 42:04.142 [SPEAKER_02]: Take that. 42:04.503 --> 42:05.104 [SPEAKER_02]: Take that. 42:05.184 --> 42:14.296 [SPEAKER_02]: Because again, even if Mirashar pulls off the wild, biggest upset of the year, he's going to do it by submission and it's probably going to be in the, you know, under two and a half rounds. 42:14.817 --> 42:15.177 [SPEAKER_00]: That's right. 42:15.197 --> 42:15.377 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 42:15.438 --> 42:15.758 [SPEAKER_00]: Take that. 42:15.818 --> 42:16.199 [SPEAKER_00]: Take that. 42:17.921 --> 42:18.161 [SPEAKER_00]: Take that. 42:18.241 --> 42:18.341 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 42:18.361 --> 42:19.783 [SPEAKER_00]: That's my luck on a two and a half runs. 42:21.205 --> 42:26.052 [SPEAKER_02]: We head next to the light heavyweight division as Junior Taffa squares off against Kevin Christian. 42:26.913 --> 42:31.399 [SPEAKER_02]: Taffa, the 29 year old New Zealander, is 65 42:31.514 --> 42:33.316 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 2 and 5 in the UFC. 42:34.497 --> 42:35.178 [SPEAKER_02]: That's the bad news. 42:35.939 --> 42:39.323 [SPEAKER_02]: The worst news is that he's 0 and 2 since dropping the light heavyweight. 42:40.985 --> 42:42.827 [SPEAKER_02]: Disatisfied with his fortunes at heavyweight. 42:42.987 --> 42:45.090 [SPEAKER_02]: He moved down to 205 pounds last year. 42:45.130 --> 42:49.615 [SPEAKER_02]: Since then, he has two straight submission losses to George Tocos and Billy Alicana. 42:50.576 --> 42:52.999 [SPEAKER_02]: He will look to snap that streak against Christian. 42:54.464 --> 42:57.429 [SPEAKER_02]: 31 year old Brazilian is nine and three overall. 42:57.830 --> 43:02.457 [SPEAKER_02]: He is one one since joining the UFC out of season eight of Dana White's contender series. 43:03.259 --> 43:04.521 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought just once last year. 43:04.781 --> 43:13.536 [SPEAKER_02]: It was his UFC debut in November at UFC Fight Night Garcia versus O'Nama, where he got choked all the way to sleep by Billie Elecata. 43:13.516 --> 43:14.597 [SPEAKER_02]: Toffee is your favorite. 43:14.718 --> 43:29.677 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not a huge favorite, but he's minus 170 Christian plus 145 Keith, when I said the UFC went to extreme lengths to find people that some of these dudes would be favored to be this was among them. 43:30.178 --> 43:35.264 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I'm pulling off the fast fastest. 43:35.284 --> 43:35.805 [SPEAKER_00]: That's my band. 43:37.968 --> 43:41.212 [SPEAKER_00]: I love it. 43:41.232 --> 43:42.814 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, give me a 43:43.368 --> 43:51.609 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you think Christian would be good because he's so big and stuff, but he's so bad. 43:51.629 --> 43:57.503 [SPEAKER_00]: I can't believe I was saying that's like, give me, give me a tough little win. 43:57.543 --> 43:59.368 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll see tough ones with first round knockout. 44:02.622 --> 44:13.299 [SPEAKER_02]: I, I want to be different just to be different, but I'm, like, let me in different picking gets due to Tophos, I'll say that. 44:13.319 --> 44:21.192 [SPEAKER_02]: But Tophos, not good, but there are a few things he can do, and he's going to get a chance to do him against Christian. 44:21.232 --> 44:23.536 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm with you, Tophon knocks him out in the first round. 44:23.696 --> 44:28.444 [SPEAKER_02]: He's just going to clock him, clock his six foot eight ass with a, with an overhand, this is going to be over. 44:31.917 --> 44:33.380 [SPEAKER_00]: That is a terrible fight. 44:34.962 --> 44:35.483 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, did I? 44:36.205 --> 44:42.857 [SPEAKER_00]: It's funny, because I was just like, when I was leaving out of this car, I didn't try to figure out which fight I wanted to pass. 44:44.319 --> 44:45.942 [SPEAKER_00]: I was like, I was having so hard. 44:45.962 --> 44:51.512 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, I wanted to take two of us, but I want these two parties, I can't take two of us, that's right. 44:51.695 --> 44:56.361 [SPEAKER_00]: And so then I was like, and I have like the other heavyweight fight. 44:56.401 --> 44:57.923 [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, I don't want to take heavyweight. 44:57.943 --> 45:01.368 [SPEAKER_00]: And like my rules, I won't take a UC newcomer, even though some bad ones. 45:01.388 --> 45:02.670 [SPEAKER_00]: That was one with the thickness fight. 45:04.372 --> 45:07.156 [SPEAKER_00]: But then I was just like, you know what, I always take heavyweight. 45:07.176 --> 45:07.496 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's go. 45:07.516 --> 45:09.699 [SPEAKER_00]: We're like, light heavyweight. 45:10.860 --> 45:12.463 [SPEAKER_00]: It might have all been your heavyweight friends though. 45:12.483 --> 45:13.904 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that I looked at next week's card. 45:14.986 --> 45:17.089 [SPEAKER_00]: It's like hard to find which one I'm gonna fast pass. 45:17.129 --> 45:19.252 [SPEAKER_00]: Like it's like, can you do this week? 45:19.452 --> 45:21.094 [SPEAKER_00]: And then not take one next week. 45:22.154 --> 45:25.083 [SPEAKER_02]: Just save him like bank them for a bad week. 45:25.866 --> 45:29.898 [SPEAKER_02]: Like just save up 12 like a subway crunch car to just skip a whole week. 45:30.901 --> 45:35.235 [SPEAKER_02]: I'll joke maybe it's long. 45:37.223 --> 45:40.649 [SPEAKER_00]: We should do that one, then like you started to show and it's like such a bad car. 45:40.669 --> 45:44.777 [SPEAKER_00]: We just talk for like life about for like 20 minutes and then like I didn't hear that back. 45:44.817 --> 45:45.538 [SPEAKER_00]: So the picture's wrong. 45:46.741 --> 45:49.365 [SPEAKER_00]: Look, you don't even mention, like don't even mention the car. 45:49.405 --> 45:50.588 [SPEAKER_00]: And don't even mention the fight. 45:50.628 --> 45:54.034 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just, and then just roll. 45:55.145 --> 46:00.170 [SPEAKER_02]: us put some fake timestamps in there so people just click on the fiber right here and we're just in the middle of telling some story. 46:01.151 --> 46:11.900 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's like, it says Kevin, it says Kevin Holliday, click on it and it might turn the middle of arguing about Godfather one versus two, like the city. 46:11.920 --> 46:13.382 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm I'm so here for that my goodness. 46:14.563 --> 46:18.166 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, uh, Ralph versus you put the timestamps in, but you still have the fights on the bottom. 46:18.186 --> 46:24.612 [SPEAKER_02]: Like the two-pitcher that you guys do, I mean, could be never made somebody would get so mad. 46:24.743 --> 46:27.566 [SPEAKER_02]: some new person to the comments would get so mad. 46:28.307 --> 46:29.208 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, get a what? 46:29.449 --> 46:32.332 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, our people would actually probably love it. 46:32.632 --> 46:41.243 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, they'd probably be like, oh, guys, like, like, I, you know, because they're obviously hardcore if they listen to our show, but I think they at least get a kick out of one of the three. 46:41.263 --> 46:43.565 [SPEAKER_00]: If we did all straight face, they never mentioned the show. 46:43.966 --> 46:44.987 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't even like, hey, what's up? 46:45.007 --> 46:45.888 [SPEAKER_00]: This show and stuff is show. 46:46.329 --> 46:46.929 [SPEAKER_00]: And they can't, what's up? 46:46.950 --> 46:47.791 [SPEAKER_00]: Can you tell you the other way? 46:47.811 --> 46:49.633 [SPEAKER_00]: They never mentioned the card and I'm like, okay, what's going on then? 46:49.653 --> 46:50.734 [SPEAKER_00]: And we just thought talking. 46:52.132 --> 47:03.289 [SPEAKER_02]: Next up at UFC Fight Night 275 and at least as the card is set up as the beginning of fight week the top pre-limm is a middleweight matchup between Cameron Rauston and Robert Breachek. 47:03.488 --> 47:07.471 [SPEAKER_02]: Ralston, the 31-year-old Australian, is 14 and 3 overall. 47:08.052 --> 47:12.876 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 2 and 0 since joining the UFC as a two-time veteran of Dana White's contender series. 47:13.356 --> 47:25.046 [SPEAKER_02]: He lost to Torres Finney back in 2024, then came back last season, one on the contender series, made his way to the UFC, where he has knockout wins over Andre Petroski and Cody Brandage. 47:25.066 --> 47:33.293 [SPEAKER_02]: The most recent of those, the Brandage fight was at UFC 325 back in January. 47:33.273 --> 47:42.202 [SPEAKER_02]: 35 year old from Poland, 18 and 6 overall, one and one since joining the UFC as an octagon MMA middleweight contender. 47:42.823 --> 47:52.433 [SPEAKER_02]: He lost to Eor Pateria in his UFC debut, then came back at UFC fight night, Emovall versus Bajalio in September and knocked out Brad Chavara's in the third round. 47:52.993 --> 47:56.637 [SPEAKER_02]: With his first UFC win under his belt, he's looking for his second. 47:56.917 --> 48:02.503 [SPEAKER_02]: He is not favored to get it. 48:03.108 --> 48:06.317 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith, let me know who you think gets this one done. 48:06.357 --> 48:07.099 [SPEAKER_02]: And how? 48:09.244 --> 48:10.026 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm sorry. 48:10.046 --> 48:11.089 [SPEAKER_02]: What do you say there, Adore? 48:12.132 --> 48:15.902 [SPEAKER_02]: Rauston is minus 225, Breachek plus 185 or so. 48:16.928 --> 48:34.551 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, yeah, it's funny because I thought right when I said Ross and it seemed to be the biggest favorite like I studied it'd be a much better So we're counting kind of gives away my you know who I'm picking You know as far as these guys I like Ross said him and this this guy is you know so far he's kind of the O.C. 48:34.571 --> 48:46.547 [SPEAKER_00]: he's like he's like really good I mean he's he maybe the biggest been away on the planet like he's huge long-lanky striker Technically sounded on the feet he's the last what he was setting up his shots really well with faints 48:46.527 --> 48:49.011 [SPEAKER_00]: He faints with his legs, but she's something I love. 48:49.933 --> 48:51.556 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a great straight right. 48:52.798 --> 48:55.763 [SPEAKER_00]: He has shown his powers off so far in the UFC. 48:55.943 --> 48:57.646 [SPEAKER_00]: He had more power than I thought. 48:58.087 --> 48:58.889 [SPEAKER_00]: Mean body kicks. 48:59.069 --> 49:00.792 [SPEAKER_00]: He does keep his chin a little higher from my liking. 49:01.333 --> 49:06.101 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, you know, he's like eight feet tall, so that'll happen too. 49:06.121 --> 49:06.662 [SPEAKER_00]: But 49:07.098 --> 49:10.125 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he, he will look for, take down the lot. 49:10.205 --> 49:16.358 [SPEAKER_00]: He's, his entries, they aren't great, but he's, uses those long arms and that helps him get like snaps. 49:16.779 --> 49:18.643 [SPEAKER_00]: That's, that's gonna be snaps singles. 49:18.775 --> 49:21.478 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets the legs, he does cut the corner well. 49:22.539 --> 49:27.724 [SPEAKER_00]: Deep mentally, he's hard to take down because of that tall man's deep as he when you look, he's like, you know, single up, he's still on the leg pretty well. 49:28.645 --> 49:30.848 [SPEAKER_00]: He makes this his striking and take down together well. 49:31.809 --> 49:34.471 [SPEAKER_00]: If he's on top, he does need to improve his top control. 49:34.752 --> 49:36.794 [SPEAKER_00]: It's not the best part of his game, but I like his ground pound. 49:36.894 --> 49:38.335 [SPEAKER_00]: He gets seven subs on his record. 49:38.876 --> 49:39.216 [SPEAKER_00]: Brightshake. 49:39.236 --> 49:40.237 [SPEAKER_00]: Brightshake's not a bad fighter. 49:40.277 --> 49:41.499 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a volume striker. 49:41.579 --> 49:42.900 [SPEAKER_00]: He sets up his shots while it fades. 49:43.941 --> 49:47.685 [SPEAKER_00]: He can be a little bit brawly, like he'll get a little wild. 49:47.665 --> 49:50.612 [SPEAKER_00]: but he's got a big left hook, he hits hard, he's got 11TKOs. 49:51.674 --> 49:57.568 [SPEAKER_00]: He needs a kick more, like against Eo Petoria, he didn't kick, he wouldn't be in his kicks. 49:58.250 --> 50:00.656 [SPEAKER_00]: He is heavy on the front foot, so he's open to late kicks. 50:00.996 --> 50:06.349 [SPEAKER_00]: He isn't much of an offensive wrestler, but if he gets to fight the ground, I like his ground and pound. 50:06.953 --> 50:17.287 [SPEAKER_00]: As far as prediction goes, like I said, I understand where the line is in as big as I thought it was because of Bryce checks power, but I still like where I was telling a lot here. 50:17.307 --> 50:18.528 [SPEAKER_00]: And the dude is wicked good. 50:18.689 --> 50:20.351 [SPEAKER_00]: He, I think he styles on Bryce check. 50:20.371 --> 50:21.032 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me where I'll stand. 50:21.052 --> 50:24.116 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to see he gets done in the very first round, first round knock out where I'll stand. 50:26.158 --> 50:29.823 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm glad that you are as high on where I was done as you are. 50:30.164 --> 50:32.607 [SPEAKER_02]: He's a guy that I think I underestimated. 50:32.992 --> 50:41.685 [SPEAKER_02]: ahead of his uh... UFC debut what all of a sudden and i think i wrote him off because he couldn't stay on his feet against torrents finnie 50:41.733 --> 50:44.338 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's been as run in the U.S. see those been so impressive. 50:44.899 --> 50:53.195 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, like, the way you lost the Torres Finney and his first run on the contender series, I was like, this guy is going to be a regional highlight machine. 50:53.315 --> 51:04.095 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, if you can't keep Torres Finney off you and you have a literal like almost foot of height advantage on them, there just aren't many UFC middle weights you're going to be able to beat. 51:04.075 --> 51:12.628 [SPEAKER_02]: one he's improved from that guy that he was two years ago and two just yeah he's he's better than I thought he was and he's better than he was. 51:13.870 --> 51:29.273 [SPEAKER_02]: I agree with you the the bright check isn't bad but the things that he wants to do are going to play right into in Torousan's best strengths 51:30.637 --> 51:36.685 [SPEAKER_02]: You mentioned like Brechek is capable of having a discipline striking battle, but he tends to start brawling. 51:36.725 --> 51:39.669 [SPEAKER_02]: Roused in generally does not. 51:40.130 --> 51:44.736 [SPEAKER_02]: If Brechek sort of gets wrong up, takes a couple shots and traficans just start swinging. 51:45.256 --> 51:48.460 [SPEAKER_02]: Broused is just going to like back up and start styling on them. 51:49.181 --> 51:50.383 [SPEAKER_02]: On top of that. 51:50.617 --> 51:56.625 [SPEAKER_02]: If project really gets aggressive and starts charging in, Rauston might just change levels and hit a reactive take down on them. 51:58.027 --> 52:01.331 [SPEAKER_02]: Like you, I think the line could be wider here. 52:02.012 --> 52:04.735 [SPEAKER_02]: Rauston has looked like a million bucks since being in the UFC. 52:05.096 --> 52:06.217 [SPEAKER_02]: I think he keeps it going here. 52:07.859 --> 52:10.423 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me Rauston in a dominant decision. 52:12.225 --> 52:19.915 [SPEAKER_02]: The five-fight main card of UFC Fight Night 275 begins with a heavyweight matchup between 52:20.114 --> 52:24.483 [SPEAKER_02]: To evasa, the 33-year-old Australian is 14 and nine overall. 52:24.984 --> 52:26.747 [SPEAKER_02]: He is eight and nine in the UFC. 52:27.549 --> 52:29.954 [SPEAKER_02]: His has been a completely streaky run. 52:29.974 --> 52:31.878 [SPEAKER_02]: He has winning streaks and losing streaks. 52:31.898 --> 52:32.258 [SPEAKER_02]: That's it. 52:32.339 --> 52:33.481 [SPEAKER_02]: He is never alternated. 52:34.242 --> 52:35.946 [SPEAKER_02]: He is at the lowest of the low right now. 52:36.427 --> 52:41.076 [SPEAKER_02]: He has lost six straight fights, dating back at this point, almost four years. 52:42.659 --> 52:44.084 [SPEAKER_02]: He's already fought once this year. 52:44.144 --> 52:48.601 [SPEAKER_02]: It was at UFC 325, the same card that half these Australians fought at. 52:48.942 --> 52:51.792 [SPEAKER_02]: He dropped the unanimous decision to Talisman to Shara. 52:52.413 --> 53:00.301 [SPEAKER_02]: looking for a record tying seven straight loss in the UFC or to avoid such a thing, he is going to go up against Southernland. 53:00.321 --> 53:03.845 [SPEAKER_02]: 32 year old Englishman, 10 in five overall. 53:04.305 --> 53:05.867 [SPEAKER_02]: Owen too in the UFC. 53:06.467 --> 53:07.909 [SPEAKER_02]: He has already fought this year as well. 53:08.049 --> 53:12.153 [SPEAKER_02]: In fact, he fought just six weeks ago at UFC Fight Night of Loyalty versus Murphy. 53:14.075 --> 53:19.180 [SPEAKER_02]: Getting knocked out in the first round by Brando Parachage who we will be talking about in just a few minutes. 53:19.312 --> 53:25.818 [SPEAKER_02]: Sutherland, still looking for his first UFC win, still looking to show that he belongs in the UFC at all. 53:26.519 --> 53:27.520 [SPEAKER_02]: Not favor to get it done. 53:28.200 --> 53:32.164 [SPEAKER_02]: Taitui Vasa, minus 170, Louis Sutherland plus 140. 53:32.184 --> 53:36.208 [SPEAKER_02]: I know I've been harping on this since the beginning of this show. 53:37.950 --> 53:46.838 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm almost done harping, but the links to which the UFC went to find a dude that Taitui Vasa had a reasonable chance of beating. 53:49.501 --> 53:52.264 [SPEAKER_02]: It's just beyond, it's beyond the pale. 53:53.965 --> 53:56.768 [SPEAKER_00]: They should have booted two of us from the card. 53:57.008 --> 54:03.214 [SPEAKER_00]: And honestly, they should put him on the international fight where he would be the perfect opponent for a game of season. 54:05.697 --> 54:12.243 [SPEAKER_00]: Like he has a punchist chance and he's, you know, they gotta have him on the press conference they he'll hold his own. 54:13.104 --> 54:15.947 [SPEAKER_00]: Like that, that's a match I should have did. 54:18.188 --> 54:33.855 [SPEAKER_02]: That's, that honestly makes a lot more sense in this because here they have found the least accomplished, most favorable style matchup, heavyweight in the UFC to take on to Evasa in to Evasa's home country and so they're going to have a pretty good chance of winning. 54:34.556 --> 54:42.390 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, just, we know to Evasa's game. 54:44.092 --> 54:47.178 [SPEAKER_02]: he's a fairly squat compact heavyweight. 54:47.598 --> 54:48.700 [SPEAKER_02]: He hits like a ton of bricks. 54:50.123 --> 55:02.505 [SPEAKER_02]: He sometimes seems more athletic than he looks in kind of a mark hunt type way, but his game is always run. 55:02.705 --> 55:10.219 [SPEAKER_02]: on having one huge power to good reflexes in the pocket and three durability. 55:10.740 --> 55:14.126 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, honestly, it's a little bit like the last guy he beat in the UFC. 55:14.146 --> 55:17.472 [SPEAKER_02]: Like the last fighter he beat in the UFC is Derek Lewis here in Houston. 55:17.853 --> 55:24.325 [SPEAKER_02]: Again, over four years ago, and it's the same way that like, Lewis is a 55:24.558 --> 55:34.770 [SPEAKER_02]: performance is just started to drop off really badly once he no longer had the reflexes in the pocket to win those close quarters exchanges it's been the same for to we've also and 55:36.100 --> 55:49.594 [SPEAKER_02]: Because to we've also has no other routes to victory, he can't just turn into a wrestler or suddenly develop a discipline outside striking game where he's throwing low kicks and jabs, he just has to run straight into the meat grinder. 55:49.694 --> 55:53.257 [SPEAKER_02]: And better boxers have just been absolutely slaughtering him. 55:53.778 --> 55:58.683 [SPEAKER_02]: And then on top of that, people who want to take him down, I've had an easy time doing it. 55:58.703 --> 56:00.104 [SPEAKER_02]: He's never had good take down defense. 56:00.645 --> 56:03.087 [SPEAKER_02]: His take down defense has always been 56:03.067 --> 56:07.315 [SPEAKER_02]: knock him out on the way in or get back up and knock him out on the way in next time. 56:08.377 --> 56:11.863 [SPEAKER_02]: There just doesn't seem to be much left with Tuivasa. 56:12.986 --> 56:20.560 [SPEAKER_02]: The good news with him against southernland is despite the fact that southernland has eight knockouts in 10 career wins. 56:21.081 --> 56:22.864 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not a one shot. 56:23.097 --> 56:23.598 [SPEAKER_02]: Blaster. 56:24.279 --> 56:29.648 [SPEAKER_02]: He is going to have to stand in there with two evasets and probably have to hit him quite a few times to really get the ball rolling downhill. 56:29.908 --> 56:34.395 [SPEAKER_02]: So that's that much more time that two evasets has to land the one points that he needs to land. 56:35.517 --> 56:37.400 [SPEAKER_02]: But I still don't favor him to win this fight. 56:39.484 --> 56:45.814 [SPEAKER_02]: On top of everything else, I think southern one can probably take two evasets down and 56:47.414 --> 56:58.512 [SPEAKER_02]: leaving aside the way Sutherland talk because the way he talks and the way he talks about himself, you think you're just getting this bog-standard English puncher from 15 years ago. 56:58.993 --> 57:06.665 [SPEAKER_02]: Sutherland is smart and well-coast enough and knows he's probably fighting for his job, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that he tries that. 57:07.166 --> 57:10.772 [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm going with Sutherland in the upset here. 57:11.140 --> 57:19.534 [SPEAKER_02]: And if I'm picking someone to get it done, I might as well pick him to get the finish because again, to we've asked his conditioning and durability just gone down the tubes. 57:19.975 --> 57:23.200 [SPEAKER_02]: If to we've asked his losing bat at the end of the first round, he's probably toast. 57:24.062 --> 57:25.324 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me a little bit of another one. 57:25.344 --> 57:26.466 [SPEAKER_02]: Bye, second round TKL. 57:30.277 --> 57:32.280 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, dude, this fight is so bad. 57:36.485 --> 57:39.069 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm done with two of us. 57:39.109 --> 57:40.571 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I understand why they do this match up. 57:41.512 --> 57:44.115 [SPEAKER_00]: They want to give two of us one last showy at home. 57:44.416 --> 57:46.659 [SPEAKER_00]: Get a knockout, go crazy and make the fans happy. 57:46.699 --> 57:50.324 [SPEAKER_00]: But he had a name at one point. 57:50.364 --> 57:52.066 [SPEAKER_00]: He was surprised. 57:52.086 --> 57:58.815 [SPEAKER_00]: He had top 10 right to point at the very first 15 right to point at one time. 58:00.162 --> 58:01.766 [SPEAKER_00]: You can't build anybody. 58:01.846 --> 58:03.389 [SPEAKER_00]: It didn't maybe one fight last. 58:03.449 --> 58:06.055 [SPEAKER_00]: That's why I said the game of Steve's in fight makes a lot of sense. 58:06.737 --> 58:12.930 [SPEAKER_00]: Give someone who has a punches chance to knock out Steve's in, but also it's like a big enough name. 58:12.970 --> 58:15.496 [SPEAKER_00]: And then if he wins, you can still do two, two, a season. 58:16.659 --> 58:18.222 [SPEAKER_00]: He can say some funny of the mic. 58:19.923 --> 58:21.585 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's really bad. 58:21.605 --> 58:25.088 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a terrible, well, he's not a terrible athlete. 58:25.268 --> 58:26.970 [SPEAKER_00]: He's in terrible shape. 58:27.771 --> 58:32.856 [SPEAKER_00]: But he moves like those those first couple moments he does, you know, move pretty well. 58:32.876 --> 58:34.037 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got decent handspeed. 58:34.818 --> 58:36.179 [SPEAKER_00]: He let's get in the park and throw it on. 58:36.219 --> 58:38.742 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he dispatches really big shots. 58:39.542 --> 58:45.188 [SPEAKER_00]: He hits very hard, big calf kicks, but he's been hurt a bunch of fights. 58:45.607 --> 58:50.972 [SPEAKER_00]: He surprisingly looks for takedowns every once in a while, which I'm like, how do I say he's terrible? 58:51.032 --> 58:54.035 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I don't know what to work lower than terrible, but that's what he is. 58:54.255 --> 58:57.318 [SPEAKER_00]: And his takedown defense is not existing. 58:57.338 --> 58:58.319 [SPEAKER_00]: How's watch his last fight? 58:58.440 --> 59:00.722 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, does he even know how to sprawl? 59:00.762 --> 59:05.787 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, does he notice sprawl is like, it's really, really bad? 59:06.427 --> 59:11.192 [SPEAKER_00]: He struggles to get off the bottom, and he gets bad against tells and to share it his last fight. 59:12.050 --> 59:13.995 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, higher and something that I am. 59:14.035 --> 59:16.661 [SPEAKER_00]: I think is one of the worst favorites on the roster. 59:16.982 --> 59:21.673 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he's just a, he's a big burly guy who throws a massive overhand right. 59:21.733 --> 59:22.956 [SPEAKER_00]: He loads up on everything. 59:22.996 --> 59:27.788 [SPEAKER_00]: Throwing big handmakers trying to end the fight with every, every punch. 59:29.010 --> 59:30.514 [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, he throws a lot of kicks. 59:30.494 --> 59:41.733 [SPEAKER_00]: He can get in the clinch and when some knees in there, I wouldn't call him a wrestler, but he'll get like a snatch single, which would not be a hard thing to do against two of us. 59:44.017 --> 59:45.439 [SPEAKER_00]: But he's not good at it. 59:45.459 --> 59:53.312 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't like penetration step into the snatches, or he kind of just ducts his head and looks to pull. 59:54.811 --> 01:00:19.468 [SPEAKER_00]: he's he's he's he ends up a topic to have me in granted pound on these he's also a terrible defense of wrestler uh i this is obviously the easiest fight to have us has had in a really one time um but i agree with you i think so link can take him down and beat him up on the ground but i'm worried that he will gas himself too i think his face can look terrible i think both guys can be super gas 01:00:20.647 --> 01:00:28.749 [SPEAKER_00]: So, if you ask me what's one thing these guys do good, to us is still it's hard. 01:00:31.476 --> 01:00:31.737 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, 01:00:33.674 --> 01:00:42.087 [SPEAKER_00]: I really want to take so thin, but I'll take two of us, so I'll say he's got one last one when he clips him and he gets an Akka. 01:00:42.148 --> 01:00:51.963 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me two of us a complete guest out, get an Akka and you know, he's going to like hold his hand over the cage and hold himself up in the celebration. 01:00:53.245 --> 01:00:54.728 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me two of us when I sit on Akka. 01:00:56.270 --> 01:00:59.395 [SPEAKER_02]: And we can only hope for a retirement show 01:01:00.100 --> 01:01:06.971 [SPEAKER_02]: We stay in the heavyweight division, unfortunately, at UFC Perth, as Shamil Gaziev square's off against Brando Parichage. 01:01:06.991 --> 01:01:11.798 [SPEAKER_02]: Gaziev, the 36-year-old Russian by way of Bahrain, is 14 and two overall. 01:01:12.319 --> 01:01:17.146 [SPEAKER_02]: He's three and two since joining the UFC out of season seven of Dana White's contender series. 01:01:17.527 --> 01:01:18.869 [SPEAKER_02]: He's coming in off a loss. 01:01:18.889 --> 01:01:27.863 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently at UFC fight night Srewke in Versus Hooker, last November, where he got one shot at Wildo Cortezakosta in the first round. 01:01:27.843 --> 01:01:31.018 [SPEAKER_02]: He's looking to bounce back from that against paratage. 01:01:31.201 --> 01:01:34.566 [SPEAKER_02]: 31-year-old Australian is 61-1 overall. 01:01:35.026 --> 01:01:37.129 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 2-0 in the UFC. 01:01:37.650 --> 01:01:42.937 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought very recently, just six weeks ago while he fought Louis Sutherland. 01:01:42.958 --> 01:01:48.385 [SPEAKER_02]: It was at UFC Fight Night of Loyalty versus Murphy, where he was on the winning end of that first round knockout. 01:01:48.846 --> 01:01:52.371 [SPEAKER_02]: He is looking for his third straight win to start his UFC run. 01:01:53.312 --> 01:02:01.123 [SPEAKER_02]: He is favored to get it, though this is one of the closer lines on the 01:02:03.533 --> 01:02:07.359 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith Schmilgazzieb is definitely a disappointment at this point. 01:02:07.700 --> 01:02:27.252 [SPEAKER_02]: We came to the UFC undefeated and even if I didn't think he was necessarily a surefire contender at heavyweight, I fully assumed he was a guy that was going to slot in as a kind of at least lower regions of the top 10 type guy for the next five years. 01:02:27.954 --> 01:02:28.815 [SPEAKER_02]: And instead, 01:02:29.555 --> 01:02:45.741 [SPEAKER_02]: he's lost badly to the only two decent fighters he's fought and that is by definitions of decent that includes jersey in your rosin strike in 2024 losing to Waldo Cortezacosta in and of itself. 01:02:46.447 --> 01:02:48.149 [SPEAKER_02]: is not ashamed. 01:02:48.309 --> 01:02:53.134 [SPEAKER_02]: Again, Cortezacosta is a top 10 guy for the last couple of years. 01:02:53.694 --> 01:03:11.813 [SPEAKER_02]: But making Cortezacosta look like a one-hitter quitter is a little concerning because if there's anything that's at the top of my scouting report about Cortezacosta, it's that he's a jab heavy high volume relatively low power heavyweight and Cortezacosta just 01:03:13.480 --> 01:03:16.763 [SPEAKER_02]: dropped him in his tracks with one punch. 01:03:16.783 --> 01:03:20.746 [SPEAKER_02]: It didn't even look like it's hardest punch. 01:03:20.766 --> 01:03:22.428 [SPEAKER_02]: Guazia was a huge human being. 01:03:22.448 --> 01:03:38.861 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, both of these guys are very big heavy weights, but Guazia for a guy that is big and obviously very physically strong, he doesn't have that many instant fight-finishing weapons. 01:03:38.961 --> 01:03:43.285 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, he kind of has to grind his way to victory 01:03:43.450 --> 01:03:45.834 [SPEAKER_02]: middle of the road, UFC level heavy weights. 01:03:46.695 --> 01:03:53.926 [SPEAKER_02]: And even at 36, which is not old for heavyweight, he doesn't seem to have the motor or the durability to do it. 01:03:56.430 --> 01:04:02.639 [SPEAKER_02]: That's going to spell a sealant, well, it's already spelled his ceiling, like he's lost badly twice in the UFC at this point. 01:04:03.461 --> 01:04:10.892 [SPEAKER_02]: But I think this is a bigger mismatch than the line makes it seem. 01:04:11.142 --> 01:04:25.301 [SPEAKER_02]: I fully expect that parachutes is going to fight and out fight against guys you have make guys you have looks low, make guys you have chasim, guys you're probably going to try and close the distance on them. 01:04:25.922 --> 01:04:30.448 [SPEAKER_02]: I think parachutes will probably just go from the all the way out to all the way in thing. 01:04:30.589 --> 01:04:32.391 [SPEAKER_02]: I think parachutes is probably 01:04:33.367 --> 01:04:35.314 [SPEAKER_02]: And let's guys, you have can just trip them and throw them down. 01:04:35.334 --> 01:04:38.666 [SPEAKER_02]: I think Parachit is probably going to do better in clinch exchanges against guys. 01:04:38.686 --> 01:04:45.570 [SPEAKER_02]: You have, and more importantly, if nobody is one by the end of the first round, I trust Parachit to more and more as the fight goes along. 01:04:45.736 --> 01:04:50.682 [SPEAKER_02]: Because of that, I don't often do this, but I'm slapping my lock of the night on this. 01:04:51.163 --> 01:04:58.072 [SPEAKER_02]: Just in the sense that this one, I think is gonna look more lopsided than the line makes it look on paper. 01:04:59.233 --> 01:05:00.935 [SPEAKER_02]: I have lost faith in Gaziav. 01:05:01.656 --> 01:05:05.782 [SPEAKER_02]: I am slowly coming around on Parachit and I think Parachit's just blast some. 01:05:06.442 --> 01:05:15.574 [SPEAKER_02]: This one could be close for maybe about two, three minutes, but Parachit's just gonna start rolling down 01:05:15.554 --> 01:05:19.497 [SPEAKER_02]: durability, either in terms of taking punishment or in terms of his cardio. 01:05:20.358 --> 01:05:21.880 [SPEAKER_02]: This thing could end late in the first round. 01:05:21.980 --> 01:05:26.484 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to say it makes it to the second round, but give me bundle pair of touch by second round TKL. 01:05:29.726 --> 01:05:30.567 [SPEAKER_00]: Wow, nice. 01:05:31.128 --> 01:05:32.429 [SPEAKER_00]: That was exciting for this fight now. 01:05:34.390 --> 01:05:36.632 [SPEAKER_00]: You'd be more excited if I said it was going to be over in the first round. 01:05:38.234 --> 01:05:45.460 [SPEAKER_00]: That was saying 01:05:46.705 --> 01:05:51.314 [SPEAKER_00]: Cassie, I mean, I think I like a little bit more than you do. 01:05:51.354 --> 01:06:01.474 [SPEAKER_00]: You have to, I'm dumb with Cassie, that's good, that's good, yeah, I mean, 01:06:03.496 --> 01:06:04.798 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not looking forward to this fight. 01:06:04.838 --> 01:06:06.922 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I guess he's a very big heavyweight. 01:06:07.022 --> 01:06:07.964 [SPEAKER_00]: He marches forward. 01:06:08.926 --> 01:06:10.829 [SPEAKER_00]: He saw a decent hand speed. 01:06:10.909 --> 01:06:12.112 [SPEAKER_00]: There were straight shots of the plague. 01:06:12.893 --> 01:06:14.877 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a good straight right. 01:06:14.897 --> 01:06:16.139 [SPEAKER_00]: He does work the body. 01:06:16.199 --> 01:06:17.301 [SPEAKER_00]: He does his hit the hard. 01:06:18.142 --> 01:06:19.325 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a solid wrestler. 01:06:19.385 --> 01:06:24.053 [SPEAKER_00]: Though he doesn't set up his entry sometimes behind his striking. 01:06:24.033 --> 01:06:25.315 [SPEAKER_00]: But he gets to fight the ground. 01:06:25.596 --> 01:06:26.657 [SPEAKER_00]: I like his top game. 01:06:27.098 --> 01:06:28.540 [SPEAKER_00]: He does a vass position on the ground. 01:06:28.581 --> 01:06:30.283 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got some you know, a busy ground of hell. 01:06:31.205 --> 01:06:32.227 [SPEAKER_00]: Three subs at his record. 01:06:32.267 --> 01:06:34.991 [SPEAKER_00]: Doesn't have the best take on offense. 01:06:35.091 --> 01:06:37.615 [SPEAKER_00]: Cardio has been super inconsistent. 01:06:37.635 --> 01:06:40.741 [SPEAKER_00]: And you said, it's not just that, yeah, he's gasped out. 01:06:40.761 --> 01:06:45.248 [SPEAKER_00]: Like he looks in shape in some bites and he doesn't look in shape at all their fights. 01:06:46.612 --> 01:06:50.037 [SPEAKER_00]: which is a big, you know, issue with him. 01:06:50.077 --> 01:07:04.159 [SPEAKER_00]: And he's also a lot the greatest athlete, you know, purchased it to, I mean, he's a huge heavyweight, very tall, nice output, fairly fast, clean one to his, does throw a big over him right, he does hit hard. 01:07:05.080 --> 01:07:06.763 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't move this head much. 01:07:07.283 --> 01:07:08.506 [SPEAKER_00]: which is a problem. 01:07:09.389 --> 01:07:15.205 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to close the distance, get a point of glance to use the size in there, just a nice striking in the clay and selects knees inside. 01:07:15.927 --> 01:07:17.952 [SPEAKER_00]: He will work for some take-downs. 01:07:18.708 --> 01:07:19.649 [SPEAKER_00]: And he is a Mr. 01:07:19.729 --> 01:07:19.910 [SPEAKER_00]: Right. 01:07:19.970 --> 01:07:22.272 [SPEAKER_00]: So I flipped a lot to much on this one. 01:07:22.313 --> 01:07:22.913 [SPEAKER_00]: So that's what I'm saying. 01:07:22.933 --> 01:07:25.316 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not nearly is a confident you. 01:07:25.617 --> 01:07:27.379 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not very high in here. 01:07:28.200 --> 01:07:32.626 [SPEAKER_00]: This is a step-up of competition for pairsage that that's something that concerns me. 01:07:33.607 --> 01:07:37.552 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not completely out on gas. 01:07:39.054 --> 01:07:42.438 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, losing the wall though cuts has a cost that has a huge really well. 01:07:43.199 --> 01:07:45.762 [SPEAKER_00]: Not not getting knocked out like 01:07:45.893 --> 01:07:47.215 [SPEAKER_00]: I think, yeah, you get my point. 01:07:47.495 --> 01:07:50.158 [SPEAKER_00]: Quit as I said, you know, top five guy in the world. 01:07:53.843 --> 01:07:56.826 [SPEAKER_00]: I do think, I do think purchase might be a little fast. 01:07:56.906 --> 01:08:02.713 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm worried about the wrestling of Gasey, but my biggest concern is that I can start to use it. 01:08:02.733 --> 01:08:04.155 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm worried about his gas tank. 01:08:06.438 --> 01:08:08.761 [SPEAKER_00]: What did you say the line was? 01:08:11.564 --> 01:08:12.725 [SPEAKER_02]: Parachat is minus 140. 01:08:12.926 --> 01:08:14.888 [SPEAKER_02]: Gasey at plus 40, yeah. 01:08:15.053 --> 01:08:17.397 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, um, you want that line to be bigger. 01:08:17.757 --> 01:08:24.307 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, I think that's why the only thing we're really disagree about, but you want to be bigger and I wanted to be in it smaller because I, I am very torn on it. 01:08:25.749 --> 01:08:27.332 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, lock it in a minute. 01:08:27.352 --> 01:08:28.353 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to go get my boy. 01:08:28.393 --> 01:08:30.456 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll go, I'll go a parrotish. 01:08:31.358 --> 01:08:34.282 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's, I think it's, I think it's we get ugly. 01:08:34.563 --> 01:08:36.866 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I don't know if he has that killer instinct to put guests. 01:08:36.886 --> 01:08:39.029 [SPEAKER_00]: You have out, give me parrot, parrot usage. 01:08:39.550 --> 01:08:43.356 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll say he went to 01:08:44.095 --> 01:08:45.056 [SPEAKER_00]: We're on the recap show. 01:08:45.076 --> 01:08:53.368 [SPEAKER_00]: We're just like, I mean, that's what you're going to be on the recap, or are you going to be on the recap? 01:08:53.668 --> 01:08:57.413 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, but I'm like, yeah, it's time it goes off. 01:08:57.774 --> 01:09:01.459 [SPEAKER_00]: My daughter has a softball game at I think new. 01:09:01.699 --> 01:09:03.101 [SPEAKER_00]: And I say, I think it's in a way game too. 01:09:03.181 --> 01:09:05.344 [SPEAKER_00]: So as a least, you have probably not. 01:09:07.096 --> 01:09:12.424 [SPEAKER_02]: Third from the top at UFC Perth is a men's flyweight match up between Tim Elliott and Steve Ursig. 01:09:13.285 --> 01:09:19.374 [SPEAKER_02]: Elliott, the 39-year-old Kansas City native, is 21, 13, and 1 overall. 01:09:19.594 --> 01:09:22.859 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 10 and 11 across two separate states in the UFC. 01:09:23.299 --> 01:09:28.547 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 8 and 7 since returning through season 24 of the ultimate fighter. 01:09:28.527 --> 01:09:29.749 [SPEAKER_02]: He's on a two-fight win streak. 01:09:30.090 --> 01:09:30.851 [SPEAKER_02]: That's the good news. 01:09:31.091 --> 01:09:37.201 [SPEAKER_02]: The bad news is that those two wins date back over two full years as he has had a couple of lengthy layoffs. 01:09:37.882 --> 01:09:43.712 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently last August at UFC 319, where he'd be a team to Kai Asakura in the second round. 01:09:44.233 --> 01:09:52.847 [SPEAKER_02]: So looking for his third straight win, showing that he still has something to offer the division ahead of his 40th birthday, he will need to get past Ursaig in order to do it. 01:09:53.688 --> 01:09:56.812 [SPEAKER_02]: 30-year-old from Perth is 13 and 4 overall. 01:09:57.193 --> 01:09:59.195 [SPEAKER_02]: He's 4 and 3 in the UFC. 01:09:59.756 --> 01:10:00.757 [SPEAKER_02]: He's coming in off a win. 01:10:01.218 --> 01:10:09.008 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently last August at UFC on ESPN, the Leeds Aversus Hernandez, where he won a unanimous decision over Ode Osborne. 01:10:09.809 --> 01:10:17.339 [SPEAKER_02]: That snapped a three-fight losing streak for him, dating all the way back to his frankly surprising flyweight title shot in May of 2024. 01:10:18.040 --> 01:10:23.307 [SPEAKER_02]: So finally back in the win column, next job is to prove that he is still a factor 01:10:23.692 --> 01:10:28.558 [SPEAKER_02]: if he can do any of that with a win over Elliot, he is strongly favored to do so. 01:10:28.898 --> 01:10:32.683 [SPEAKER_02]: As he is minus 375, Elliot plus 300 coming back. 01:10:33.704 --> 01:10:36.127 [SPEAKER_02]: He, timidly, it's always been one of our guys. 01:10:36.588 --> 01:10:40.152 [SPEAKER_02]: Steve or I said, honestly, as well, is just a guy that seems like an over a chiever. 01:10:40.653 --> 01:10:43.556 [SPEAKER_02]: Or I said, the big favorite here, do you think that's justified? 01:10:43.736 --> 01:10:45.058 [SPEAKER_02]: And do you think he gets it done? 01:10:46.473 --> 01:10:50.597 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that might be a little bit of a hometown cooking kind of like, should he be the favorite? 01:10:50.617 --> 01:10:51.598 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it should be the favorite. 01:10:51.718 --> 01:10:53.400 [SPEAKER_00]: Should he be, would you say minus 300? 01:10:54.401 --> 01:10:55.202 [SPEAKER_00]: minus 375. 01:10:56.123 --> 01:10:58.265 [SPEAKER_00]: That's almost almost a 41 favorite. 01:10:58.805 --> 01:11:00.947 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 01:11:00.967 --> 01:11:03.130 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how to tap my head at the top five. 01:11:04.151 --> 01:11:10.077 [SPEAKER_00]: That way, so I like, I don't have it in front of me, but, you know, obviously you're talking just to me, I'm a fan. 01:11:10.437 --> 01:11:13.560 [SPEAKER_02]: Man, Pintoja, Cop, Roy Vaughan, Tyra. 01:11:13.743 --> 01:11:14.504 [SPEAKER_00]: OK, very well. 01:11:14.805 --> 01:11:15.747 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's take more of our second. 01:11:15.767 --> 01:11:16.328 [SPEAKER_00]: This is perfect. 01:11:17.249 --> 01:11:18.692 [SPEAKER_00]: Rayvall is currently ranked on ours. 01:11:18.772 --> 01:11:19.974 [SPEAKER_00]: This is Shardog's top five. 01:11:20.655 --> 01:11:22.118 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Shardog's top five is number four. 01:11:23.100 --> 01:11:24.062 [SPEAKER_00]: And who is the fifth when you say? 01:11:25.704 --> 01:11:27.367 [SPEAKER_00]: Fifth is Tyra, six is Horguchi. 01:11:27.588 --> 01:11:29.311 [SPEAKER_00]: No, OK, Tyra, and six is Horguchi, OK. 01:11:29.531 --> 01:11:30.794 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I think we have more. 01:11:30.854 --> 01:11:34.941 [SPEAKER_00]: I understand why we have Rayvall for the beat Tyra, but Rayvall is number four. 01:11:35.393 --> 01:11:38.678 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a top four ranked fly-way. 01:11:40.260 --> 01:11:40.340 [SPEAKER_00]: Yep. 01:11:40.360 --> 01:11:43.685 [SPEAKER_00]: I would not put him minus 400 over to Miller. 01:11:46.048 --> 01:11:50.635 [SPEAKER_00]: And he's, you know, by merit, better than Steve or Sake. 01:11:51.677 --> 01:12:03.814 [SPEAKER_00]: If you want to have, or say get minus 200, okay, I get it, like he's, guys, yeah, he's been ranked and, you know, my opinion, arguably beat the champion. 01:12:05.566 --> 01:12:17.584 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think I scored the fight for Ersake over Pantosa, who, you know, you know, how big I am in Pantosa, and I've said it before, I like, I feel like it was his best night of his careers. 01:12:17.604 --> 01:12:26.578 [SPEAKER_00]: It has, I said before, it has like a very domicile ray as feel to it where he didn't get the decision, but he kind of came out that way. 01:12:27.183 --> 01:12:28.004 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a big flyway. 01:12:28.084 --> 01:12:29.226 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a good boxer. 01:12:29.246 --> 01:12:30.348 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a state combos. 01:12:30.388 --> 01:12:33.773 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a good hands being a nice jab, a good straight right. 01:12:33.793 --> 01:12:41.526 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to get in the pocket time times and throws down, uh, which he shouldn't and he should stay at distance, uh, because he's, I think he's a better distance striker. 01:12:42.087 --> 01:12:43.128 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he does hit hard. 01:12:43.649 --> 01:12:44.871 [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, he, I, uh, he, I, uh, 01:12:44.851 --> 01:12:50.420 [SPEAKER_00]: against Pantosure, he was getting inside and looking for elbows, which was hurting Pantosure. 01:12:51.201 --> 01:12:52.463 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't like his defense though. 01:12:52.503 --> 01:12:53.805 [SPEAKER_00]: He definitely stands too tall. 01:12:53.825 --> 01:12:54.606 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't move his head. 01:12:54.666 --> 01:12:56.990 [SPEAKER_00]: He eats a lot of shots for a very high level guy. 01:12:57.010 --> 01:13:00.235 [SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of which, can you just check real quick? 01:13:00.255 --> 01:13:02.098 [SPEAKER_00]: Where do we have verse 8, right? 01:13:02.158 --> 01:13:03.661 [SPEAKER_00]: He's like 7th or 8th, isn't like that. 01:13:04.502 --> 01:13:07.747 [SPEAKER_00]: But I'll keep talking about you if you want to check. 01:13:07.767 --> 01:13:10.251 [SPEAKER_00]: If you're out of here, still had it right for any input. 01:13:11.058 --> 01:13:15.449 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's got a decent kicking game. 01:13:17.113 --> 01:13:23.008 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he kicks enough at times, but he's 01:13:26.347 --> 01:13:27.609 [SPEAKER_00]: He, oh, okay. 01:13:27.649 --> 01:13:29.332 [SPEAKER_00]: Actually, I've seen it on the kick enough at the time. 01:13:29.352 --> 01:13:31.936 [SPEAKER_00]: It's definitely in the brand of Marino for he wasn't kicking enough. 01:13:31.976 --> 01:13:33.298 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and he didn't leave the dance. 01:13:33.318 --> 01:13:36.904 [SPEAKER_00]: He was a little too gunch eye and kind of letting Marino do what he wanted to do. 01:13:36.924 --> 01:13:38.968 [SPEAKER_00]: He's in okay, wrestler. 01:13:39.749 --> 01:13:41.452 [SPEAKER_00]: He didn't wrestle, brand of Marino enough. 01:13:42.293 --> 01:13:45.418 [SPEAKER_00]: He did a lot of wrestling against Oday Osborne though. 01:13:46.141 --> 01:13:48.644 [SPEAKER_00]: But he wasn't good at it. 01:13:48.684 --> 01:13:55.091 [SPEAKER_00]: He was very overreaching, kind of like, almost, they're just diving in on the hips. 01:13:56.412 --> 01:13:58.755 [SPEAKER_00]: If he gets to fight the overall grapple, it's very solid. 01:13:58.775 --> 01:14:00.356 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a very good BGGP practitioner. 01:14:00.377 --> 01:14:01.538 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got six sublimit records. 01:14:03.039 --> 01:14:05.362 [SPEAKER_00]: Tidd Elliott, go back to his last fight. 01:14:05.862 --> 01:14:06.964 [SPEAKER_00]: Can I interject real quick? 01:14:07.164 --> 01:14:08.245 [SPEAKER_02]: Sure. 01:14:08.265 --> 01:14:12.790 [SPEAKER_02]: You asked, we have Ursig at number 14, the UFC has him on number 12. 01:14:13.462 --> 01:14:16.124 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so yeah, we have a couple guys. 01:14:16.965 --> 01:14:18.166 [SPEAKER_00]: So we had, what was it? 01:14:19.167 --> 01:14:24.351 [SPEAKER_00]: Roy Val, five was Tyra, six was Horguchi, yeah. 01:14:24.471 --> 01:14:24.752 [SPEAKER_00]: Seven. 01:14:25.032 --> 01:14:28.735 [SPEAKER_02]: Cobb, no, Cobb is number three. 01:14:30.156 --> 01:14:31.317 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it's Cobb was three. 01:14:31.477 --> 01:14:33.199 [SPEAKER_00]: Who's, who's just had a care see? 01:14:33.219 --> 01:14:36.702 [SPEAKER_00]: Who's, who's between here? 01:14:36.922 --> 01:14:37.743 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll run it down for you. 01:14:38.123 --> 01:14:38.443 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right. 01:14:38.483 --> 01:14:43.047 [SPEAKER_02]: Six is Horguchi, seven linear Kavanaugh, eight Brandon 01:14:43.297 --> 01:14:51.829 [SPEAKER_02]: Al-Bazi, and then the reason we have her sake is 14 and UFC has him at Al-Bazi's nine brand of marano's eight. 01:14:52.429 --> 01:14:54.432 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, marano, yeah, yeah. 01:14:55.013 --> 01:15:00.300 [SPEAKER_02]: Because we have people like Muhammad Macayev that's not in the UFC anymore, but we still have right ahead of her sake. 01:15:00.320 --> 01:15:00.801 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 01:15:01.962 --> 01:15:05.707 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so we would have him at 12 if he was. 01:15:07.830 --> 01:15:09.953 [SPEAKER_02]: If it was UFC only, we'd have him at 12 with 13. 01:15:10.053 --> 01:15:10.534 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:15:10.554 --> 01:15:11.295 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay. 01:15:11.596 --> 01:15:17.348 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, I mean, so Ellie, the big note I wrote on them after his last fight that he just keeps proving he's a lot of dog left in him. 01:15:17.668 --> 01:15:20.233 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he's obviously super an author that I was going to feed. 01:15:20.875 --> 01:15:21.897 [SPEAKER_00]: He used a lot of movement. 01:15:21.917 --> 01:15:29.191 [SPEAKER_00]: He kind of gets opponents guessing kind of a kind of a kind of a dominant crew style, a bottom and leave in rolling with punches. 01:15:29.251 --> 01:15:30.213 [SPEAKER_00]: He has great volume. 01:15:30.795 --> 01:15:32.558 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he won't stop bringing it. 01:15:32.538 --> 01:15:51.002 [SPEAKER_00]: he likes to get in the pocket and throw some big hooks though he really isn't known for his power he's a good wrestler he likes to catch it kick and take his opponents down he likes to get those clinch and hit a knee tap definitely very funk style rolling through the hips he like he like he's like a blast if you have she's going to roll with a scramble 01:15:50.982 --> 01:15:55.932 [SPEAKER_00]: I haven't seen him before, hit an old school, Peter Sandwich, people know I'm a big fan of. 01:15:56.773 --> 01:16:01.904 [SPEAKER_00]: He will chase submissions because of that, you know, never know what position he's going to end up in. 01:16:02.405 --> 01:16:12.805 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he's obviously a true wrist taker on these last fights because of that, but he also has a great, you know, he's had great outcome in catching submissions from the scrambles and he's got a great gear team. 01:16:13.443 --> 01:16:17.512 [SPEAKER_00]: Tim, Tim, it's fight to so hard to predict because he fights like a mad man. 01:16:17.552 --> 01:16:18.554 [SPEAKER_00]: He's not conventional. 01:16:18.635 --> 01:16:21.521 [SPEAKER_00]: So you can't really analyze a fight very conventionally. 01:16:21.561 --> 01:16:24.989 [SPEAKER_00]: RSAic still has the pyrum side for sure. 01:16:25.009 --> 01:16:27.334 [SPEAKER_00]: Even he's a cleaner fighter. 01:16:28.124 --> 01:16:33.895 [SPEAKER_00]: I say he wins the first round, but I say Elliot style brings it back in the fight. 01:16:33.915 --> 01:16:38.144 [SPEAKER_00]: His cardio, his pace, he sets one in the second round, he sets one in the third round. 01:16:38.945 --> 01:16:47.101 [SPEAKER_00]: I would feel much better if his chance of this was like a five round fight where his cardio and his output could really do dividends. 01:16:49.265 --> 01:16:50.588 [SPEAKER_00]: I want to say that 01:16:50.770 --> 01:16:52.312 [SPEAKER_00]: Elliott would some grappling exchanges. 01:16:53.113 --> 01:16:56.257 [SPEAKER_00]: I think we have a really, really fun scrapping at any time to emulate fights. 01:16:56.337 --> 01:16:57.178 [SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be a fun scrap. 01:16:58.279 --> 01:16:59.420 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going with a big upset. 01:16:59.460 --> 01:17:02.003 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to say Elliott wins two two late rounds. 01:17:03.405 --> 01:17:04.967 [SPEAKER_00]: Does this thing pulls another upset? 01:17:05.007 --> 01:17:06.409 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me Elliott by split decision. 01:17:07.610 --> 01:17:09.032 [SPEAKER_02]: I love the pick. 01:17:09.472 --> 01:17:14.398 [SPEAKER_02]: I want to follow you out on on that branch because you are 01:17:15.712 --> 01:17:19.057 [SPEAKER_02]: It's not like it's a bizarre pick. 01:17:19.738 --> 01:17:23.664 [SPEAKER_02]: The things that Elliott does well, he still does, he's still does well. 01:17:25.026 --> 01:17:29.873 [SPEAKER_02]: And Ursaic is still a better fighter than they thought he was when he arrived in the UFC. 01:17:30.093 --> 01:17:31.495 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, we've seen the flaws. 01:17:31.515 --> 01:17:34.560 [SPEAKER_02]: We've seen people just catch him and blast him. 01:17:34.900 --> 01:17:40.809 [SPEAKER_02]: We've seen people win rounds against him over a five round fight. 01:17:40.829 --> 01:17:45.516 [SPEAKER_02]: We, he's, he's not a perfect fighter. 01:17:45.732 --> 01:17:57.883 [SPEAKER_02]: Ellie, just jumping up and grabbing one last top 15 scalp in this fight, I'm good to go with Ersegg, but I'm with you in that it's probably going to come down to two clear rounds and maybe a swing round. 01:17:58.405 --> 01:18:01.733 [SPEAKER_02]: So I don't think we see the fight that differently, but 01:18:03.029 --> 01:18:26.758 [SPEAKER_02]: Elliott at this point at the tail end of a such a long career and then just with the little added thing that they're going to be in front of Ursags literal hometown where the crowd is going to be amplifying every little thing Ursag does through the roof if there are ground sequences where the crowd wants those guys back up they're going to start booing like mad. 01:18:27.295 --> 01:18:31.923 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me your segment to win a close decision, one that is much closer than the odds might imply. 01:18:31.963 --> 01:18:36.290 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I'm going chalk here and I don't feel, I don't feel good about myself for it. 01:18:36.710 --> 01:18:37.952 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith made the mantle choice here. 01:18:39.214 --> 01:18:46.907 [SPEAKER_02]: That brings us to the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 275, a lightweight matchup between Beneal Daryush and Quillan Saltkilled. 01:18:47.461 --> 01:18:55.195 [SPEAKER_02]: The 36-year-old Iranian-Assyrian-American is 23-71 overall. 01:18:55.676 --> 01:19:05.554 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 17-71 in the UFC and has been a perennial lightweight top 10 contender for literally over a decade at this point. 01:19:05.534 --> 01:19:18.805 [SPEAKER_02]: Having said that, we appear to be coming to the end of the road as he is lost three of his last four, including his last outing, which was at UFC 32 last November, or he got plunked by Ben Los Anthony in just 16 seconds. 01:19:20.188 --> 01:19:21.872 [SPEAKER_02]: Needs to get back in the wind column. 01:19:22.747 --> 01:19:35.804 [SPEAKER_02]: If he wants to do it, he's going to need to do it against the red hot rising salt killed 26 year old from Perth 11 and 1 overall a perfect 4 no since joining the UFC out of season 8 of Dana White's contender series. 01:19:36.324 --> 01:19:43.373 [SPEAKER_02]: And he is, in fact, on an 11 fight win streak, he lost his professional debut, a little bit like Jack Delamado Lana and has been perfect ever since. 01:19:44.194 --> 01:19:51.083 [SPEAKER_02]: He fought most recently in January at UFC 325, tapping out his countryman Jamie Malarkey in the 01:19:51.063 --> 01:20:01.001 [SPEAKER_02]: he'll look to make it 12 straight overall five straight in the UFC, certified himself, a factor in the title picture in this division, and he is comfortably favored to do so. 01:20:01.341 --> 01:20:07.232 [SPEAKER_02]: Saul killed as minus 475, they're used plus 375 coming back. 01:20:08.950 --> 01:20:13.377 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith, there are still things that Benel Deere used does well that he's always done well. 01:20:14.598 --> 01:20:17.242 [SPEAKER_02]: He is still a very good top position grappler. 01:20:17.683 --> 01:20:20.627 [SPEAKER_02]: He is still a surprisingly effective offensive wrestler. 01:20:21.468 --> 01:20:22.230 [SPEAKER_02]: He's still hit hard. 01:20:24.473 --> 01:20:36.831 [SPEAKER_02]: The problem is that the things that have always been his kind of flaws, the things that really kept him from just breaking through and being, if not a champ, at least like a multiple time perennial title challenger. 01:20:38.988 --> 01:20:43.053 [SPEAKER_02]: he's never been quite as sound defensively as he was offensively. 01:20:43.674 --> 01:20:46.758 [SPEAKER_02]: And while he he's certainly aging, he's an old 36. 01:20:47.038 --> 01:20:49.561 [SPEAKER_02]: He's taking a lot of punishment for a guy his age. 01:20:50.923 --> 01:20:55.028 [SPEAKER_02]: He was always kind of chiny and could be gotten to even in his prime. 01:20:55.268 --> 01:21:05.080 [SPEAKER_02]: I joined the UFC in his mid 20s and I think 01:21:05.262 --> 01:21:17.466 [SPEAKER_02]: It was, it was stunning to see Ben Wilson and he just Lance him in November, but that's not the first time we saw the Neil Derry use melted by the first clean shot to hit him. 01:21:18.188 --> 01:21:27.663 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know where I place Beniledare use on the all-time list of light weights, but he might be the greatest light weight ever. 01:21:27.903 --> 01:21:31.869 [SPEAKER_02]: He might be the greatest fighter ever with as many first round knockout losses as he has. 01:21:32.951 --> 01:21:36.957 [SPEAKER_02]: The way to beat Beniledare use has always been pretty well laid out. 01:21:36.937 --> 01:21:40.060 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's a problem here, because that is something that Quill and Saul killed can do. 01:21:40.620 --> 01:21:48.507 [SPEAKER_02]: He's turned out to, Saul killed has turned out to be a surprisingly good fighter period, but a surprisingly well rounded fighter. 01:21:49.228 --> 01:22:06.943 [SPEAKER_02]: But the thing I see that he does best at a UFC level is deliver power to his opponent's head with a variety of techniques at a variety of ranges, whether his opponent 01:22:07.430 --> 01:22:08.773 [SPEAKER_02]: Darius has tons of ways. 01:22:08.833 --> 01:22:11.639 [SPEAKER_02]: He can beat Saul killed, but I just don't think he's going to get a chance to. 01:22:11.899 --> 01:22:15.326 [SPEAKER_02]: I think Saul killed is going to clean his clock within the first half of the first round here. 01:22:15.807 --> 01:22:18.953 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's a bummer because the Neil Darius is an easy guy to root for. 01:22:18.974 --> 01:22:20.697 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yes. 01:22:21.132 --> 01:22:29.065 [SPEAKER_02]: One of my most fun experiences ever coming and covering an event live was one of the big UFC's down here in Houston. 01:22:29.085 --> 01:22:31.309 [SPEAKER_02]: It was the one where he was fighting Tony Ferguson. 01:22:31.729 --> 01:22:40.724 [SPEAKER_02]: And Ferguson was doing his whole sunglasses indoors, like packing angry, dropping the mic after everything he said, like going off on Dana White privilege in this and that. 01:22:41.125 --> 01:22:44.490 [SPEAKER_02]: But I remember their use who's always had this kind of just 01:22:44.470 --> 01:22:53.848 [SPEAKER_02]: Friendly high pitched voice for his tough of a guy as he is just looking across the podium because they see just when you're fighting third from the top You're 60 feet away from the guy just looks all the way down. 01:22:53.869 --> 01:22:56.093 [SPEAKER_02]: It's like why are you so mad, man? 01:22:56.113 --> 01:23:02.465 [SPEAKER_02]: It's like in that moment he was all of us like why are you so mad, Tony? 01:23:03.147 --> 01:23:06.293 [SPEAKER_02]: You know you're like you're a millionaire for 01:23:06.391 --> 01:23:10.056 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, doing what Robert Whitaker would call, you know, fight and guys in your underwear. 01:23:10.397 --> 01:23:11.178 [SPEAKER_02]: Why are you so mad? 01:23:11.578 --> 01:23:13.100 [SPEAKER_02]: So easy to root for Beneal Daryush. 01:23:13.361 --> 01:23:15.744 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it's going to be a good night for him against Saul killed. 01:23:15.764 --> 01:23:17.166 [SPEAKER_02]: Give me Saul killed by first round knockout. 01:23:19.169 --> 01:23:21.092 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I was just that. 01:23:21.793 --> 01:23:24.056 [SPEAKER_00]: Daryush is the last fight when I see what he was knocked out by. 01:23:26.099 --> 01:23:30.765 [SPEAKER_00]: Ben Washingtonie and I was talking on the hallway of the hotel. 01:23:31.286 --> 01:23:32.888 [SPEAKER_00]: Very briefly, but 01:23:34.150 --> 01:23:38.441 [SPEAKER_00]: after, like, like, dinner break, turn to media days before the next guy comes out. 01:23:38.461 --> 01:23:43.133 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, him, like, chat with each other for a very briefly, and he has to take as a good deal. 01:23:43.153 --> 01:23:45.780 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's, it's hard to watch a guy get knocked out. 01:23:47.515 --> 01:24:07.182 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, guys in that prime yet knocked out it's definitely guys at like, at the end when you know it's gonna continue to happen and you know, like I love competing and you just like, no, like you really can't compete at this level anymore, but it's worse when you see you got like, dare you, just like dare you just such a good dude, I see a South boy. 01:24:07.963 --> 01:24:11.247 [SPEAKER_00]: He loves to brawl, at least love to brawl. 01:24:11.928 --> 01:24:12.629 [SPEAKER_00]: He likes to brawl. 01:24:12.649 --> 01:24:14.772 [SPEAKER_02]: He loves to brawl, comma, unfortunately. 01:24:15.663 --> 01:24:32.144 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, it's fun when he when he he's when he connects and gets knocked out and he throws big and he's got good volume on his feet and he's got nice power, you know, when you're big over hand-lapse Me he kicks he kicks the body really well He loves the high kick from the orthodox dance. 01:24:32.344 --> 01:24:33.385 [SPEAKER_00]: He loves stepping knees. 01:24:33.666 --> 01:24:37.030 [SPEAKER_00]: We saw that against my choose camera on their fight 01:24:37.178 --> 01:24:42.025 [SPEAKER_00]: The problem is, he loves to borrow, but his defense and his durability is a big deal. 01:24:42.086 --> 01:24:43.007 [SPEAKER_00]: He keeps his chin high. 01:24:43.067 --> 01:24:43.888 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't move his head. 01:24:43.908 --> 01:24:45.050 [SPEAKER_00]: He's been knocked out a bunch. 01:24:45.070 --> 01:24:48.055 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, saying to me, I mean, he knocked him dead. 01:24:49.877 --> 01:24:59.372 [SPEAKER_00]: He used to be a guy willing to take a shot to land one of his own, which was not even a good strategy then, because there was times when I was turning this kind of situation I get knocked out. 01:25:00.517 --> 01:25:01.819 [SPEAKER_00]: but it's really bad now. 01:25:02.541 --> 01:25:03.543 [SPEAKER_00]: He can't do it now. 01:25:04.264 --> 01:25:06.529 [SPEAKER_00]: He does have those long legs to do that. 01:25:06.629 --> 01:25:10.516 [SPEAKER_00]: He's, his legs are, are big targets to kick that by his opponent. 01:25:11.238 --> 01:25:13.322 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a big strong physical strong guy. 01:25:13.342 --> 01:25:16.087 [SPEAKER_00]: He can get to the clinch and get chest to chest and grind in there. 01:25:16.468 --> 01:25:21.377 [SPEAKER_00]: I stated before, he's like a little bit like a Kamara Usman style through his game. 01:25:21.357 --> 01:25:22.239 [SPEAKER_00]: good news inside. 01:25:22.299 --> 01:25:24.422 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a very solid wrestler, a very good grappler. 01:25:25.264 --> 01:25:33.138 [SPEAKER_00]: If taking down his hard to hold down, he showed great defense, uh, take down the fence against, um, to his camera. 01:25:34.420 --> 01:25:36.383 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, if he's on top, he's very good on the ground. 01:25:36.463 --> 01:25:41.512 [SPEAKER_00]: Nice, top control, great back takes, um, works to a submission, but doesn't rush. 01:25:41.552 --> 01:25:42.915 [SPEAKER_00]: He's going to eat something on his record. 01:25:44.217 --> 01:25:44.277 [UNKNOWN]: Uh, 01:25:45.050 --> 01:25:47.515 [SPEAKER_00]: If he can make this a grappling game, that's his best amateur victory. 01:25:47.555 --> 01:25:50.921 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'll kid, I mean, this dude looks like a legit talent. 01:25:51.643 --> 01:25:56.311 [SPEAKER_00]: I like to come in to the US a little bit, but I mean, he's really rose up my charts. 01:25:56.332 --> 01:26:01.521 [SPEAKER_00]: Like I'd like to take credit for like being all about this guy wasn't, but he, he's shown that he's a real dude. 01:26:01.541 --> 01:26:02.383 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, a big dude. 01:26:02.768 --> 01:26:04.951 [SPEAKER_00]: Long and lanky, good output on the feet. 01:26:05.692 --> 01:26:10.640 [SPEAKER_00]: He's been absolutely shocked, right with a striking nice crisp jab, falls through with power shots. 01:26:11.661 --> 01:26:12.583 [SPEAKER_00]: I like his straight right. 01:26:13.284 --> 01:26:14.365 [SPEAKER_00]: Good sting on his shots. 01:26:14.846 --> 01:26:18.872 [SPEAKER_00]: He's shown great power, big kicking game, hard kick to the body. 01:26:19.513 --> 01:26:24.380 [SPEAKER_00]: His high kick care over, and as a high cross is sensational. 01:26:24.400 --> 01:26:26.363 [SPEAKER_00]: It's one of the best knockups you'll ever see. 01:26:26.343 --> 01:26:29.187 [SPEAKER_00]: I love that he adds kicks into his punch of combinations. 01:26:29.748 --> 01:26:32.012 [SPEAKER_00]: Not the best strike in defense does keep his channel high. 01:26:33.073 --> 01:26:35.056 [SPEAKER_00]: He has a solid wrestler that old quick entries. 01:26:35.196 --> 01:26:38.942 [SPEAKER_00]: He kind of like uses his long arms to get through his opponent's legs. 01:26:39.763 --> 01:26:42.568 [SPEAKER_00]: And when he does, he's he's got some skills. 01:26:42.588 --> 01:26:43.529 [SPEAKER_00]: And he ragged out. 01:26:44.230 --> 01:26:48.997 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, now Ashman was he threw a Jamie in the lark in his last fight. 01:26:50.239 --> 01:26:55.287 [SPEAKER_00]: He will shoot without a set up, so that's something I think as he raises high in the ranks, he won't be able to do as much. 01:26:55.267 --> 01:26:59.556 [SPEAKER_00]: but if you get to find the ground, good back days, good submission game, you've got four subs on his record. 01:27:00.438 --> 01:27:02.122 [SPEAKER_00]: Cardi has been a little inconsistent, though. 01:27:04.126 --> 01:27:05.109 [SPEAKER_00]: But I feel the same way you do. 01:27:05.129 --> 01:27:06.933 [SPEAKER_00]: This is the passing of the torch fire. 01:27:06.993 --> 01:27:08.636 [SPEAKER_00]: I think South Kilmer does dare use. 01:27:09.458 --> 01:27:11.904 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he wins a big punch or kick early. 01:27:12.625 --> 01:27:14.389 [SPEAKER_00]: Give me South Kilmer first round, not go. 01:27:16.090 --> 01:27:28.007 [SPEAKER_02]: With that, we come to the main event of UFC fight night 275, a high level, well-to-weight contenders match up between former champ Jack Delamado-Lena and rising contender Carlos Prottis. 01:27:28.274 --> 01:27:37.270 [SPEAKER_02]: Villa Madalena, the 29 year old from Perth, 18 and three overall, eight and one since joining the UFC out of season five of Dana White's contender series. 01:27:38.111 --> 01:27:50.333 [SPEAKER_02]: As I alluded to earlier, he lost his first two professional fights, then rattled off 18 straight wins, including eight in the UFC, making his way to one of the more surprising title wins of the modern era. 01:27:51.511 --> 01:27:56.457 [SPEAKER_02]: That was before running into Islam Makashev last November in the headliner of UFC 322. 01:27:57.638 --> 01:28:00.361 [SPEAKER_02]: Makashev absolutely dominated Delamada Lena. 01:28:01.042 --> 01:28:07.229 [SPEAKER_02]: So, primarily on the ground, obviously Delamada Lena has some rebuilding to do. 01:28:07.429 --> 01:28:15.358 [SPEAKER_02]: If you want to prove that his title in wasn't a fluke, let alone make himself a threat to compete for another belt in the future. 01:28:15.398 --> 01:28:19.543 [SPEAKER_02]: He's gonna need to get past protests in order to do any of those things. 01:28:19.523 --> 01:28:22.667 [SPEAKER_02]: 32-year-old Brazilian is 23 and 7 overall. 01:28:23.148 --> 01:28:27.233 [SPEAKER_02]: He is 61 since joining the UFC out of season 7 of the contender series. 01:28:27.833 --> 01:28:34.682 [SPEAKER_02]: He's on a two-fight win streak since his loan UFC loss which was almost exactly a year ago to Ian Gary. 01:28:35.243 --> 01:28:45.295 [SPEAKER_02]: He has two knockout wins over Jeff Neill last August and then 01:28:46.085 --> 01:28:50.753 [SPEAKER_02]: looking for a third straight, looking for perhaps to get himself into the immediate title discussion. 01:28:50.793 --> 01:29:00.430 [SPEAKER_02]: As I said during the intro, protest is the favorite, but this one is close to a pickum and maybe a pickum for all we know by the time they actually walk into the cage. 01:29:00.850 --> 01:29:06.540 [SPEAKER_02]: As right now, protest is minus 115, Delamadollana plus 100 as your underdog. 01:29:08.824 --> 01:29:09.325 [SPEAKER_02]: Keith? 01:29:11.161 --> 01:29:19.632 [SPEAKER_02]: our colleague at the Shradog Radio Network, Sean Sheen, said numerous times, even ahead of the Delamado Lina versus McCachet fight. 01:29:19.832 --> 01:29:30.046 [SPEAKER_02]: And he wasn't saying it to be insulting, but just to give his honest take on this, he said, Jack Delamado Lina is the UFC Walterweight champ, and I'm not dead. 01:29:30.086 --> 01:29:31.988 [SPEAKER_02]: Sure, he's one of the 10 best Walterweight in the world. 01:29:34.060 --> 01:29:35.282 [SPEAKER_00]: That's pretty good. 01:29:35.302 --> 01:29:37.626 [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't I didn't he's talking. 01:29:37.646 --> 01:29:57.199 [SPEAKER_02]: I couldn't exactly like I couldn't follow them all the way there But if I just counted the people in the UFC that I thought would have a pretty good chance of being there including Macachia Who had not even fought at one seven to yet and then including guys in PFL like Shamil Musai have that I would give a pretty decent chance It's like yeah, I might stick to a lot of laying around seven 01:29:58.276 --> 01:29:59.199 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay. 01:29:59.219 --> 01:30:04.354 [SPEAKER_02]: Having said that, it doesn't change the fact that he is a really, really damn good fighter. 01:30:04.836 --> 01:30:04.976 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay. 01:30:06.802 --> 01:30:08.607 [SPEAKER_02]: And nothing happened. 01:30:09.717 --> 01:30:13.062 [SPEAKER_02]: in the McCashev fight to dispel that for me. 01:30:13.302 --> 01:30:16.267 [SPEAKER_02]: If we're being honest, uh, like, Oh, it does. 01:30:17.028 --> 01:30:18.009 [SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't. 01:30:18.269 --> 01:30:21.114 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's the McCashev is the best fighter in the world right now. 01:30:21.775 --> 01:30:29.025 [SPEAKER_02]: And he beat the Lamadalena in exactly the way I think most of us would have predicted. 01:30:29.005 --> 01:30:48.686 [SPEAKER_02]: He's delimitalin is not going to be able to stop the takedowns, and that's going to spell doom everywhere else, because delimitalin is at his best as a pocket to mid-range boxer, and if he's reacting to every level change, he even smells coming down the pike, he's never going to be able to get that game going. 01:30:49.587 --> 01:30:56.354 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not a direct Lewis guy that needs to get up a few times, and then just time you coming in and lamp you with an uppercut. 01:30:56.414 --> 01:30:58.236 [SPEAKER_02]: That's never been JDM's game. 01:30:58.216 --> 01:31:10.285 [SPEAKER_02]: I like his chances better here against Pratez, because Dilamadalena and Ian Garrier are two extremely different fighters, but 01:31:53.701 --> 01:32:00.720 [SPEAKER_02]: I saw Gary really blunt protest is striking offense just by making him uncomfortable with the range. 01:32:00.840 --> 01:32:09.583 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, the range was never what protest wanted it to be, but like, when he was set up to, you know, throw like a one two and a kick. 01:32:09.563 --> 01:32:25.869 [SPEAKER_02]: Gary was instantly crowding him or backing away, shoving him towards the fence, that sort of subtle management of distance and rhythm and just making things uncomfortable for his opponent, taking away his opponent's best weapons in not a big flashy way, but just in a small nuanced way. 01:32:25.889 --> 01:32:30.036 [SPEAKER_02]: I see him doing that to protest. 01:32:30.775 --> 01:32:35.782 [SPEAKER_02]: This is a tough fight to pick because protest is a much harder hit or on a shot for shot basis. 01:32:36.142 --> 01:32:42.110 [SPEAKER_02]: So across five rounds, Delamodalina has to thread a much different needle than protest does. 01:32:44.333 --> 01:32:49.721 [SPEAKER_02]: Delamodalina's got to win three rounds out of five and not get knocked out. 01:32:50.922 --> 01:32:54.487 [SPEAKER_02]: Whereas if protest gets knocked out, it's gonna be an accumulation of damage. 01:32:54.507 --> 01:32:55.248 [SPEAKER_02]: We're gonna see it coming. 01:32:55.308 --> 01:32:59.033 [SPEAKER_02]: This fight is super close on the lines. 01:32:59.233 --> 01:33:00.495 [SPEAKER_02]: It deserves to be. 01:33:01.285 --> 01:33:06.511 [SPEAKER_02]: But I like Dental Modelina better, especially in a five round fight. 01:33:06.591 --> 01:33:09.334 [SPEAKER_02]: I've seen both of these guys in five round fights at this point. 01:33:09.854 --> 01:33:24.390 [SPEAKER_02]: Dental Modelina in multiple five round fights, I like him as just a guy with underrated skills, underrated physical talents, but exactly correctly rated fight IQ, game this and intangibles. 01:33:25.180 --> 01:33:28.124 [SPEAKER_02]: This feels like a close fight on paper. 01:33:28.365 --> 01:33:31.349 [SPEAKER_02]: And if it's close, fight on paper, give me Jack Delamado lineup. 01:33:32.150 --> 01:33:36.517 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm taking JDM by decision here in what is a slight upset as of the beginning of fight week. 01:33:39.381 --> 01:33:44.168 [SPEAKER_00]: Nice, yeah, I said last week that sterling versus 01:33:44.907 --> 01:33:51.999 [SPEAKER_00]: I, as it allows one of the best fights most most intriguing main events, books for this month. 01:33:52.099 --> 01:33:54.703 [SPEAKER_00]: And that was probably disrespectful because this is a really good one. 01:33:54.803 --> 01:33:57.688 [SPEAKER_00]: I know, I think it's just, it's just, it's just fall into March by time. 01:33:58.129 --> 01:33:58.650 [SPEAKER_00]: I see it may. 01:33:58.690 --> 01:34:03.257 [SPEAKER_02]: It'll be, it'll be April or be, it'll be May by the time they actually fight, I'll take a pass. 01:34:03.277 --> 01:34:05.481 [SPEAKER_00]: But this is one of the better ones too. 01:34:05.461 --> 01:34:11.107 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, I think it was on Marcus Heaven and, yeah, how good he is. 01:34:11.768 --> 01:34:13.050 [SPEAKER_00]: So my son doesn't want to fight for me. 01:34:13.070 --> 01:34:15.232 [SPEAKER_00]: I wish he, I'm really wish he would, but he, he doesn't. 01:34:15.873 --> 01:34:17.815 [SPEAKER_00]: But he knows is on Marcus Heaven's favorite Friday. 01:34:17.855 --> 01:34:23.822 [SPEAKER_00]: He's like, but he knows him from like, I don't know, like, things he saw at the scene on YouTube. 01:34:24.082 --> 01:34:26.424 [SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, two, three years, Doug, two, three years. 01:34:26.465 --> 01:34:27.005 [SPEAKER_00]: Doug is saying it. 01:34:27.025 --> 01:34:30.489 [SPEAKER_00]: If I get, if he really says that, he was like, two, three years, Doug is saying it. 01:34:30.569 --> 01:34:34.033 [SPEAKER_00]: If I end like, he's like, you know, um, 01:34:35.853 --> 01:34:41.601 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, you don't want to pick your fight then call us practice and inject elemental in us. 01:34:42.562 --> 01:34:45.727 [SPEAKER_00]: What's the show in a Delphi show versus the show of seeing a show? 01:34:45.807 --> 01:34:46.548 [SPEAKER_00]: Let me tell you something. 01:34:47.670 --> 01:34:50.153 [SPEAKER_00]: He might be on the show at all, it might work. 01:34:51.675 --> 01:35:01.128 [SPEAKER_00]: He might be on our YouTube, but dudes been trying to make be the media member that's against your YouTube, like getting the back line to it. 01:35:01.188 --> 01:35:05.134 [SPEAKER_00]: That has been us for a very, 01:35:05.249 --> 01:35:07.692 [SPEAKER_00]: kind of being like, uh, I just took a little work on it. 01:35:07.712 --> 01:35:30.919 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no 01:35:31.456 --> 01:35:31.857 [SPEAKER_00]: It does. 01:35:32.337 --> 01:35:35.381 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got the double asking, oh no, that definitely works, though. 01:35:38.645 --> 01:35:39.867 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this fight is really good. 01:35:40.107 --> 01:35:41.509 [SPEAKER_00]: It means it's really, really good. 01:35:41.589 --> 01:35:42.911 [SPEAKER_00]: I just wish it wasn't going off it. 01:35:43.852 --> 01:35:50.521 [SPEAKER_00]: It's, you know, nine o'clock in the morning, but, but, you know, I think people are part of their, they know a lot of times. 01:35:50.561 --> 01:35:58.632 [SPEAKER_00]: So, the objective has this negativity about based on that market show show. 01:35:58.652 --> 01:36:01.075 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it was a terrible show on farm, 01:36:01.460 --> 01:36:04.025 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, he didn't get to do the things that he does. 01:36:04.346 --> 01:36:05.348 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's a good athlete. 01:36:05.368 --> 01:36:07.993 [SPEAKER_00]: He he fights out of both stances. 01:36:08.033 --> 01:36:10.277 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got really good footwork because it's really well. 01:36:11.700 --> 01:36:12.261 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a builder. 01:36:12.281 --> 01:36:13.964 [SPEAKER_00]: He gets stronger as a fake goes along. 01:36:15.147 --> 01:36:16.269 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, he's known for his boxing. 01:36:16.309 --> 01:36:18.473 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a very accurate punching. 01:36:18.453 --> 01:36:31.737 [SPEAKER_00]: just touches into those openings through straight shots on the pike, short tight, keep her in the inside, you know, not a lot of tells, likes to counter strike and moves his head really well, slips strikes. 01:36:32.679 --> 01:36:35.685 [SPEAKER_00]: But the best thing about him, he just, he slips, he keeps himself in range. 01:36:35.705 --> 01:36:39.111 [SPEAKER_00]: We just slipped on outside as opponents, wow. 01:36:41.183 --> 01:36:45.429 [SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, here's a bunch of shots so we can land, you know, quick counters back. 01:36:46.270 --> 01:36:47.431 [SPEAKER_00]: He takes the body well. 01:36:47.571 --> 01:36:48.793 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't have good power. 01:36:48.813 --> 01:36:50.575 [SPEAKER_00]: He he's got 12 T. J. O's. 01:36:52.097 --> 01:36:53.680 [SPEAKER_00]: Because he's a very boxing heavy style. 01:36:53.700 --> 01:36:54.441 [SPEAKER_00]: He has opened the lake. 01:36:54.461 --> 01:36:55.943 [SPEAKER_00]: He's off the front foot. 01:36:55.963 --> 01:36:57.304 [SPEAKER_00]: That's something if I practice. 01:36:57.445 --> 01:36:58.226 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm really tired. 01:36:58.246 --> 01:37:00.108 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to take the way the the power. 01:37:01.129 --> 01:37:05.335 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, his melons ability step forward by kicking his legs. 01:37:05.315 --> 01:37:12.605 [SPEAKER_00]: but my line of he loves that like mid boxing range, get inside, balance side, like in skill balance. 01:37:12.625 --> 01:37:13.807 [SPEAKER_00]: He was looking for step in these. 01:37:14.708 --> 01:37:16.030 [SPEAKER_00]: He's comfortable in the clinch. 01:37:16.050 --> 01:37:19.435 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got a judo background, but he can shoot some takedowns from distance. 01:37:20.516 --> 01:37:21.678 [SPEAKER_00]: Pretty decent at winning scramble. 01:37:21.698 --> 01:37:23.240 [SPEAKER_00]: It was pretty good fun grappler. 01:37:23.300 --> 01:37:26.265 [SPEAKER_00]: If you take him down, he loves like gravey rolls. 01:37:27.026 --> 01:37:31.592 [SPEAKER_00]: He showed good takedown defense against bull on mom and now everything I just said about his grappling. 01:37:31.572 --> 01:37:33.235 [SPEAKER_00]: did not matter against his democracy. 01:37:34.036 --> 01:37:42.730 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously his takedown defense is ability to get off bottom was terrible, but it's his democracy of like this is what he does. 01:37:43.491 --> 01:37:48.439 [SPEAKER_00]: So, usually he's got, you know, tired of holding on and he gets a submission. 01:37:49.421 --> 01:37:51.544 [SPEAKER_00]: Protests, I mean, he's a really big wealth-weight. 01:37:51.564 --> 01:37:57.073 [SPEAKER_00]: Not that Jack Dellman is small, but he's like, Dellman is thick. 01:37:57.053 --> 01:38:01.721 [SPEAKER_00]: well, this is the lanky and and huge range. 01:38:01.741 --> 01:38:24.057 [SPEAKER_00]: He's he's he's he's a great striker switch his stance a lot a little little plodding though though but he's as far as his offensive skills very relaxed and poised he looks to pop shut for a distance he does well the keep his opponents at the end of his punches does hang his hands low and then kind of 01:38:24.222 --> 01:38:34.640 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe a little Michael Page in the sense where he's keeping his hands low kind of baiting a little bit and then he wants to let, you know, throw big shots and counters. 01:38:35.522 --> 01:38:43.235 [SPEAKER_00]: A big knock on his rise till like the higher ranks when he first came to see that I would always like harp on is that he can cruise sometimes. 01:38:44.678 --> 01:38:47.783 [SPEAKER_00]: It's been way too much time getting reads and and giving. 01:38:48.286 --> 01:38:55.242 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I don't really see giving grounds where we're giving big portions of the rounds that makes, can, makes grounds work if they should be. 01:38:55.745 --> 01:38:58.888 [SPEAKER_00]: Not the best volume, a lot of single strikes. 01:38:59.188 --> 01:39:04.253 [SPEAKER_00]: He can load up a lot, but when he's flowing and he's letting his hands go, it's a sniper. 01:39:05.034 --> 01:39:09.177 [SPEAKER_00]: He measures the tolerance really well, works behind a good jab, nice cross. 01:39:10.499 --> 01:39:17.946 [SPEAKER_00]: When he's letting go of his, you know, dispatching his hooks, he's like, it's like he's snapping a whip, they're like whipping these hooks out of them. 01:39:17.966 --> 01:39:20.648 [SPEAKER_00]: He has his insane powers at 18 TKOs. 01:39:21.088 --> 01:39:24.992 [SPEAKER_00]: The one of those go back to is that he knocked out 01:39:25.293 --> 01:39:28.279 [SPEAKER_00]: was never knocked out, but not just knocked him out, but he hurt him a bunch of times before that. 01:39:28.740 --> 01:39:36.936 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he had a nail magazine with a one punch, he was getting beat up, but he managed to out of Gary, but the biggest moment for him, he managed to out of Gary. 01:39:37.678 --> 01:39:41.325 [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he knocked out Jeff Neil when incredible spinning back elbow. 01:39:41.345 --> 01:39:44.652 [SPEAKER_00]: He knocked out with an Edwards, which obviously, 01:39:44.783 --> 01:39:52.221 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I believe he was the first guy to do that, which was a incredible accomplishment. 01:39:53.504 --> 01:39:56.290 [SPEAKER_00]: Good kicks, good tee kicks are distance, hard catch kicks. 01:39:56.411 --> 01:39:57.333 [SPEAKER_00]: I like his step in knees. 01:39:57.353 --> 01:40:00.801 [SPEAKER_00]: He crushed chart, Charlie Racky with his step in knee. 01:40:00.781 --> 01:40:17.490 [SPEAKER_00]: Defensive, he does avoid strikes and roll punches with you, and I'm not a fan of, but in fairness, the guy here reminds me of a little bit in his offensive skill set, not necessarily the way he does things, I definitely go back to Michael Page because he does have a little Michael Page, but it is easy, like is he in his prime, 01:40:17.470 --> 01:40:29.148 [SPEAKER_00]: So take that for us, so I might not like it, but a lot of elite strikers do, so he doesn't have much of an offensive rest in skill and has taken advantage. 01:40:29.388 --> 01:40:32.453 [SPEAKER_00]: I still think it's a weakness, but it's not a clear weakness. 01:40:33.034 --> 01:40:35.177 [SPEAKER_00]: Due to his ability, he kind of explored it back to his feet. 01:40:35.197 --> 01:40:36.339 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think it's a really fun fight. 01:40:37.040 --> 01:40:40.846 [SPEAKER_00]: You got me super excited by taking Jack Delomenaletta. 01:40:41.747 --> 01:40:44.912 [SPEAKER_00]: I think both guys are going to get the fight they want. 01:40:45.145 --> 01:40:47.649 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, they both aren't going to feet. 01:40:48.290 --> 01:40:50.553 [SPEAKER_00]: Jacket on my land was going to want to be inside. 01:40:50.613 --> 01:40:52.616 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think practice going to stand the outside. 01:40:53.878 --> 01:40:57.884 [SPEAKER_00]: Jacket on my land is going to want to, you know, I'll box him with volume. 01:40:58.946 --> 01:41:03.473 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, practice is going to want to pop shot and try to maybe put a way with the shot. 01:41:05.055 --> 01:41:11.305 [SPEAKER_00]: It's this is tough on, um, practice has the more tools when you add in his kicks. 01:41:11.437 --> 01:41:20.141 [SPEAKER_00]: But Delomenalette has the volume that makes me want to lean and back you and go with Delomenalette on foot. 01:41:20.161 --> 01:41:21.324 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to actually go to the square. 01:41:21.344 --> 01:41:21.945 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to go the other way. 01:41:21.966 --> 01:41:23.269 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to go with process. 01:41:23.975 --> 01:41:25.958 [SPEAKER_00]: I think both guys got to have their moments. 01:41:26.599 --> 01:41:32.589 [SPEAKER_00]: I just think he's going to land on and don't rally those some, you know, a bunch of times got to hurt him a bunch of times. 01:41:33.671 --> 01:41:35.454 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think eventually he's got to put him away with one of them. 01:41:35.514 --> 01:41:36.536 [SPEAKER_00]: I want to see practice does it. 01:41:36.556 --> 01:41:37.077 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to see if Lee. 01:41:37.097 --> 01:41:41.203 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to see practice knocks him out after back and forth fight. 01:41:41.223 --> 01:41:42.165 [SPEAKER_00]: I see it doesn't afford for him. 01:41:42.225 --> 01:41:44.008 [SPEAKER_00]: Can be practiced by fourth round back there. 01:41:45.085 --> 01:41:53.475 [SPEAKER_02]: And
