[SPEAKER_00]: What is up everyone?
[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back to another edition of the She-In-Show Meshon She-In-Here on Shirdag.com and I am back.
[SPEAKER_00]: With another PFL preview as the professional fighter league goes to Austin, Texas this weekend as on July 18th.
[SPEAKER_00]: the unsaturated lady, even the middle-air interim title is on the line as the Farmer Champion Johnny Eblin rematches in Pakistan and I in a very interesting man event, it's a pretty good character.
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, the problem with this character I think is injuries and a few fights fell out, but it's honored not it's a good character, a lot of the guys we've seen for the last few years in PFL.
[SPEAKER_00]: around these people kind of fighting their way back.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think into the frame after setbacks, but also kind of a few young open comers.
[SPEAKER_00]: As well, they were excited to see.
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the PFLM, I think, over the last 18 months or so.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they've just been putting together good solid cards.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you've been listening to my previews and listening to my Porsche shows, I think you'll know about it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think you'll know that PFL has become an organization and not to hack and learn about this because I'm always talking about a put.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're listening to this for the first time in a while, it's an organization that has changed from the tournaments
[SPEAKER_00]: and gone out to a place you can rely on them you can rely on them to put on a good card you can rely on them now to have and if it was before even uh... better for it and put on good cards but they're just weren't delivering for one reason or another i think that happened to pfl for a whole as well but they've been an unbeleaved will run i think over the last eighteen months and uh... you know look they have hard to find very good cards come up maybe even a couple more
[SPEAKER_00]: like you'd be surprised if all five were great cards, you know what I mean, but that's them in me.
[SPEAKER_00]: It can happen, but they all look very, very good and start with this one.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's I think it's a fantastic run.
[SPEAKER_00]: And as was let's start with the main of a Johnny Ablin and Nippe because saying, and I, Eblin was obviously supposed to fight Caceluv and Steena's furthest side of Caceluv got injured.
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually spoke to Johnny Eblin a couple of days ago.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not sure if it's out just before this or just after, but it's that'll be out this week as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know,
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of got the hit there that he didn't really want to talk about Castella.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was like, that's a fight that I thought about for a very, very long time.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not happening and I have to concentrate in another fight, which you can absolutely understand, but he is not happy about it at all.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's a question I asked him basically.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going from a rematch against a guy you beat you to a rematch with a guy who you beat.
[SPEAKER_00]: which is very different mentally, you know, you want to get, you know, as I say, get back to the loss.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now he's given an opponent, an opportunity to get back a win, you know, which is, again, mentally, it must be very, very strange to do that, but to swap from someone you've lost at the someone you've beaten in the same knife basically.
[SPEAKER_00]: So,
[SPEAKER_00]: I wonder how it will go.
[SPEAKER_00]: The first time I went back and I watched this before I interviewed Johnny.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I remember it being a close story, but I do not remember being as close as it was.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, impeded a great job stopping a lot of Evelyn's takedowns.
[SPEAKER_00]: Early I think Evelyn did a great job of continuing to go for takedowns.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's probably what one of them, the fight in the end, but it was a very even fight all the way to true.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think I'm not, and a lot of people are saying to be interesting to see what this would be like over two more rounds.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what we get here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, um,
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what happened in February 2024.
[SPEAKER_00]: Since then, Johnny Abund has gone two and one, being fairly in Edwards and Brian Battler, who was at the Costello Vincenus in the middle, with us, you know, I was going to say a last second to show up.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was last 10 second, choke, nine seconds to go.
[SPEAKER_00]: In the fight that, I think I think you still would have won.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was definitely winning.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he lost the Fort Run, obviously would have lost the the fifth, but he was winning before that.
[SPEAKER_00]: It'd be probably about to just beat him down really in the last fight ended up submitting him at the end of it, but it was the exact start to come back for it after last that you'd want.
[SPEAKER_00]: And now, you know, only a few months later, that was in March, what is the three four months later, my maths probably better.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got me, he's back again.
[SPEAKER_00]: For him, because Sangana, you know, he's a guy who's thought,
[SPEAKER_00]: An awful act on three years and an awful act since that fight he won his true fights directly after he haven't played beat in police Jacob and Doy and our neto.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was kind of in Doy.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's named his neto.
[SPEAKER_00]: Josh was so very dimmy last year.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you're more than I've
[SPEAKER_00]: I got, yeah, I should work, I've write the last affair in Edward's book, can't back again.
[SPEAKER_00]: Andrew Sanchez went very, very good finish, and Dalton Russell, again, made Mint's meat of him in the first round in a really, really good win.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was in Pittsburgh, wasn't it?
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what was that?
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that Donde?
[SPEAKER_00]: Was Dalton Russell's home?
[SPEAKER_00]: Home town, I think it was.
[SPEAKER_00]: So a great win for him there.
[SPEAKER_00]: And like,
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember one of my first previews I did for sure, I got the PFL and I was like, I don't know how good actually is He and lots of people in the comments section were like he's very very good.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're in the rest of it and him you need to talk better about him Because I'm like he's a guy who needs your respect a little bit more, and I am
[SPEAKER_00]: I think since then, watching his fights, you couldn't board Genners back from this guy is a very, very good, well-rounded fighter.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, he reminds me a little bit about two minutes.
[SPEAKER_00]: He reminds me a little bit of Leon Edwards.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, just go to
[SPEAKER_00]: go against it, the cage, go in the clinch, go down the ground, go to the rest and go to the gym.
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like would you say he's the best in the world or anything or near, not probably not.
[SPEAKER_00]: But every man is hoping well-rounded, and it's about being able to do everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then by cashing on my absolutely can do that.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's why he's a test for anyone in the world, even guys who maybe are at one aspect of it.
[SPEAKER_00]: You look at Johnny Eblin.
[SPEAKER_00]: And you probably say, look, Johnny is an elite wrestler, really, really good wrestler.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, he's nicknamed as pressure.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think he's pressure wrestling is the best part of his, uh, of his game.
[SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't relent on it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, he's improved an awful lot as a striker as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think don't, don't true to yours.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're relentless striking.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think is also the part of his game.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's really, really good.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I've seen Johnny fight, uh, live in person is a twice.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, definitely one, anyway.
[SPEAKER_00]: and looking at him, you can tell like he's a guy who just frankly believes in himself.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I remember interview and it was after the Fabian Edwards flight and I think two judges had two realms for Fabian Edwards and one of them maybe didn't anyway.
[SPEAKER_00]: And Johnny Ablin, quote, not sad them.
[SPEAKER_00]: how they score rounds for fair binners, even though watching back that fight, you know, and you most people would easily found on that, it was a close fight, but he's a guy who just like thoroughly believes in himself.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the issue with that, I think is when you lose, will you continue to believe in yourself.
[SPEAKER_00]: But it certainly looks like Eblan has continued to do that.
[SPEAKER_00]: going to advance steam as fight.
[SPEAKER_00]: It would have been another real test of that after the battle destruction.
[SPEAKER_00]: But this is a real test of it in a different way against Cassangan.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, because Cassangan will have that not the Harkin and the whole rematch is thing.
[SPEAKER_00]: But Cassangan will have that thing where I really want to get this back.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a guy who beat me before.
[SPEAKER_00]: Can I change this this and this to beat him now?
[SPEAKER_00]: Where is he when you already beat it guy?
[SPEAKER_00]: Did he not see it sometimes?
[SPEAKER_00]: I look I'll just do that again and this time I'll I beat him in the same way as I beat him the last time It doesn't always walk I work out that way So we will see if if it does Work out that way for for For Johnny Ablin or or we'll see if it gets angry and I can turn it over I I wonder
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, if you were to ask me, I think Johnny Eblon will be able to, to get it done again, just about, I think that performance against Bryan Battle was so good.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's, uh, you're, find it very hard to not believe in in my suppose.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, I, you know, if you're asking me for my prediction, my prediction is going to be Johnny Eblon.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I could see this going to a decision, I could see it going there.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wonder, you know, after speaking to Johnny Eblon again, I wonder, is he a change fighter in a little bit of a way?
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, when he'd be more relentless, what he'd be more looking for the finish and, you know, even though against confidence, you could argue that him going too all out, made him tire in the end, the made him lose, but, you know, if you finish, that's not going to happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, the PN trust it to see.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm very interested in this fight.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you go back on the first fight, I think it's on YouTube for another second.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a very, very good fight.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, looking forward to looking forward to seeing it again.
[SPEAKER_00]: The commitment was supposed to be Louisville Grand 11 against Sergio Pettis, Pettis out injured.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think only last week and Raphael's new cementer is in, he's coming over from LFA, and this is a very different prospect to Sergio Pettis, who's probably a striker, you know, the new cementer is really, really good on the ground.
[SPEAKER_00]: including two of his last two of his last tree in a row, you know, because he's never been finished as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: He saw it as a 12-in-3 one via decision.
[SPEAKER_00]: What was the other one?
[SPEAKER_00]: Did he get to qualify or something?
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, hold on, let me look here.
[SPEAKER_00]: DQ, League of Geek, yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Back in the middle of the meeting, I should have looked at it earlier.
[SPEAKER_00]: But he's a very good record, like, you know, he's, you know, he's, you know,
[SPEAKER_00]: I say he's obviously very good with submissions.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's one knuckle, but that one knuckle against against Justin Vetzel.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's only a couple of years ago, and we know how good he was last year, be John Winsky as well, who's a better photographer for a very, very long time.
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's no joke at all.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I grew up in the middle of the 11th, 12-1-1.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's only last to the Wesley Maya in the PFL, back in 2020, 23 is on a 4-5 win streak since then, be down and fill
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a fight with us.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to win.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I've filled up.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got a couple of them now and they're going to couple of beatings there But you know, I think the two wins before that Alexander Lester and Dean Gernet like Dean Gernet has had a serious run since then.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, Lewis Morgan and Evans can kind of do it all.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he has power
[SPEAKER_00]: He's kind of the opposite in, if I'm not mistaken in that, he's only one submission and the rest are knockouts.
[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll have to be one of those if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different, if it's different
[SPEAKER_00]: I suppose we'll find out in the room up to it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm looking forward to seeing that one.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to say in this end division, we came in a locker and actually he's moved up to February at now.
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's fighting Houdi O'Rse at 144, even Y'all, came in a locker and won these last fight.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mentioned Allen Philpard as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: He also fought Allen in a bit of a destruction, moving up to 144.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't have to come to over from the UFC.
[SPEAKER_00]: That was how you all struck in and lost the jack car right again, I believe that was another sharp note.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, wasn't it five, not mistaken, but jack car right, is anyone who's covered cage or anything, I never know this guy's a top, top fighter and he was able to, you know, beat him pretty handily, I'm sorry, I'm pretty, I'm pretty, I'm pretty handily is, is, is, is it often, but he was able to beat him in in a, in a, in a tall fight for killing to come back and win after that was big, but he needs to do it
[SPEAKER_00]: 14, sorry 12 finishes in there as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: At 36 years of age, you know, came over to PFL last Alexey Pragande who's the kind of becomes like the darling of Tik Tok over the last while, but I think he's running to USC is what people probably remember him for.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was into USC for a good long time, like debut and back in 2017 and then we can hear in this series, beat Danny again.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's, uh, uh, in his debut in 2018, you know, has been Julian Ross and Andrea you and others as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: So,
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's absolutely no joke at all, can do it all around and you know, I think for Ken and Akron and this one.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, Ken and his biggest issue, I think, always has been settling on a style, maybe.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, is he a wrestler?
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you seeing a guy that's gonna get that jab going and kind of use that unusual way about him in the way he fights?
[SPEAKER_00]: Like,
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if I feel like Kailin's a big, strong guy for 1-35, from 1-45, we'll see I suppose.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I feel like he needs to use that a little bit better, like you need to, I heard someone said before, you need to be athletic in the way you are athletic, and I think for Kailin Locker he needs to use the kind of the inside speed he has right in the outside speed.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need to think he needs to use his soys and his strength and against someone like Julio Arse.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like put him against the cage, land big elbows.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you, if the takedown is there, go and get the takedown.
[SPEAKER_00]: If the job is there, go and jab the face off him.
[SPEAKER_00]: For, you know, for Arse again.
[SPEAKER_00]: who's used to it is, you know, is a little bit bigger than Ken and the size is going to be around the same I think but like he has to go out there and I think implement the game plan, you know, like hardly like how it has to be the better all-own fighter or I think for a Ken and Akron he needs to.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever it is, right, he can do it all, a little bit like Jake Hadley's on who I just mentioned.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're so good in all areas, I feel like sometimes I don't just concentrate in an area enough and go out and do it.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's just said the none of course, but I feel like that might be the key for this fight.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can see what your RSA.
[SPEAKER_00]: One fun I really wanted to mention as well and another guy I spoke to before is Biajo Ali Watch is fighting Gammie's Reav.
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously Biajo Ali watched the grandson of my hammer Ali And I it might be his already out with him was out a couple weeks ago, I find it on this YouTube channel or this website where I very much in this from
[SPEAKER_00]: but he taught me some great stories of Muhammad Ali and he kind of dropped pictures of him obviously with Muhammad Ali was on well at the end of his life and when you know the adjobs young and they watch films together and that was absolutely you know beautiful but like he really impressed me he's a really good head and he showed us and like he's a guy who I don't know like I kind of got like just engaged he vibes from him and that I want to be exciting and like I really matters to me and some people say that and you don't really believe him but I really believe it with him and
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, he also said that last Iranian games was like the best thing that ever happened to him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's won two cents at, I think the fight against Grundy to fight back.
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, it'd be a bit dodgy, but he came true, and that was really an important look good.
[SPEAKER_00]: The last time out, but he's against the guy known, his reeval.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is first fight over in the PFL, he's far.
[SPEAKER_00]: In a UAE, you were even a couple of times before this, and I've been very impressed with him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a beast on the ground, I've got to, you know, I said, use your ledicism.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a guy who uses his ledicism, you know, against a strike, or like, be agile, Ali Walsh, it's going to be a tough matchup, you know, the betting that's earned out in the stuff you have, but I'd be surprised if his reef isn't the favor coming in here, you know, coming from Daggersand that rest, and it's a bad matchup for be agile, Ali Walsh, but,
[SPEAKER_00]: Kudos to the PFL for making this fight, absolutely.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm looking forward to seeing that on not out about it.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, kind of the opening few fights.
[SPEAKER_00]: I suppose a few newable cameras actually thinner against the Miyagra, born on the feed of two in Oversus tree in O. Zack, fleeces tree in one against Jackson glass.
[SPEAKER_00]: who was a trio and in Victoria Alba, six and two against Burina, Caesar Vizé, that's six and one pronounced that absolutely beautifully there, and there's a fight as well Andrea Vazquez, even against Alexandra Sevintia.
[SPEAKER_00]: Jesus Pinedo, also on discard against Levi's soul, a matter of kin coming over at 16 and 3 from Mexico, he fought and promotions over in Mexico, I've fought in the combatchets, global and things like that as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, a big finisher there, a lot of submissions, a lot of, a lot of knockouts, and you know, Pinedo coming off for two last days now for losing to more of lead.
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's below you, of as well, after a great year in 2025, he'll be on the bounce back in that fight as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all for me.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you very much for tuning in.
[SPEAKER_00]: Check out the fights on Saturday night.
[SPEAKER_00]: My name is Sean Sheen for shared.com and I'll see you all next time.
