Speaker Time Text
brendan schaub
What is up, everybody?
This is a fight companion.
If you've never listened to one before, we try to follow along with the fights, but you never know where it's gonna go.
Our captain of the ship, Joe Rogan, is in Vegas at UFC 189. Possibly the biggest UFC ever, according to Joe, especially.
I say UFC 100, but what can you do?
bryan callen
No, it's not.
unidentified
I'm tired of talking about UFC 100. Yeah, sorry, man.
bryan callen
We're 89 UFCs away from that, so we've moved on.
brendan schaub
We've got a squad here tonight.
I'm excited for this one.
bryan callen
Me too.
brendan schaub
Brian the Kid Callan, Bobby...
bryan callen
Bobby Lee.
brendan schaub
Bobby Lee.
bryan callen
What's your nickname if you're a fighter, Bobby?
unidentified
Oh, uh...
Yellow Scallop.
brendan schaub
Yellow scallop?
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
bryan callen
Dude, that's...
unidentified
Because I'm like a yellow, fat person.
I look like I have no formation.
I'm just feet formless.
bryan callen
Okay, but that doesn't sound very menacing if you were to...
Bobby, the yellow scallop!
unidentified
How about scary yellow scallop?
bryan callen
I don't know, because I'm not afraid of a scallop.
I want to eat a scallop.
SSC, SSC. Yeah, but what would be your technique?
Would you just be so amorphous that when you got hit...
unidentified
No, I go on my back, and then I bend over, and then they just fuck me from behind.
Well, no.
Is that a move?
bryan callen
I don't know if that's a move.
unidentified
Is that a move?
bryan callen
No.
brendan schaub
That's a porno set, man.
unidentified
Oh, it is?
bryan callen
Although, a lot of times, guys, they sleep after they are done.
unidentified
Ah.
Well, I've got to get a different instructor, then, because that was what the movie taught me.
bryan callen
I think your nickname should be Bobby...
Bobby, come out to Yale!
Come out to Yale!
unidentified
Well, no.
brendan schaub
That's racist.
unidentified
Come on, dude.
bryan callen
You're the one who said it.
unidentified
No, I said come out to Yale.
brendan schaub
No, the way you said it, you go, Now, I would assume in this room, the person who knows probably the second most about the UFC is your girlfriend, Bobby?
unidentified
Kalilah.
No, I'm just a passive participant.
I'm just going to chime in, you know, here and there.
brendan schaub
Well, it's always nice to have a nice voice on the mic.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's for sure.
bryan callen
And Kalilah, your job is also, besides me, I mean, obviously I'm a good looking man.
brendan schaub
It just got a lot better looking in here.
bryan callen
Yeah, I want to talk about who you think is the sexiest fighter in this whole group as you watch the fights.
unidentified
Oh, sure, I can do that.
But see, my taste in men is a little bit weird.
I mean, I date Bobby.
You know what I mean?
Whoa, why'd you laugh so hard, dude?
Hey, bro, come on.
Whoa, whoa, dude.
I'm an artist, dude.
No, I'm with you, brother.
brendan schaub
Yeah, she's into...
unidentified
I mean, I can't help the way God made me.
brendan schaub
No, no, no, I think you're a good-looking dude.
unidentified
There's nothing I can do with the vessel.
brendan schaub
You shouldn't, bro.
I think you look good.
bryan callen
Wait, let me...
brendan schaub
Also, you pulled an attractive lady.
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
You pulled an attractive lady, so you're doing something, right?
unidentified
Well, you know, she's very attractive, and she's a good spirit, and she has a great heart.
And also, we met on Tinder, and I wanted to have...
brendan schaub
Whoa, whoa, is that true?
bobby lee
Yeah, I wanted to have sexual intercourse with her first, but then I realized that I loved her, so then we got into a relationship.
unidentified
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's his, like...
There's a point of pride there that we met on Tinder, and I think it cheapens the entire relationship.
brendan schaub
I disagree.
It's 2015. But it's Tinder.
unidentified
It's a hookup app.
It's not like Match.com.
bryan callen
I gotta tell you, you're very hot.
unidentified
I have a small penis.
bryan callen
You're wearing a bandit.
You're wearing a bandana right now.
You're wearing a bandana and it makes me furious, but I also like it.
unidentified
It's not a bandana, bro.
brendan schaub
It's a head thing.
unidentified
It's a head thing.
brendan schaub
It's like a head.
bryan callen
What are you doing?
Is that for sweat in your eyes?
unidentified
I don't know, man.
I don't know.
My hair is long.
It's uncontrollable, you know?
So I put it on.
bryan callen
You sound like you suddenly got a Korean accent for a second.
unidentified
Uncontrollable.
Uncontrollable.
brendan schaub
Brian, you know your boy Matt Brown won tonight.
Supposed to be fight of the night against the Dirty Bird.
bryan callen
He already fought?
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
bryan callen
For sure learn what the cards are.
I didn't know I missed the prelim.
brendan schaub
Yeah, so during the fight campaigns, I feel like reaching across this and strangling you.
During the fight campaigns, it's only the pay-per-view percent.
bryan callen
Damn it.
So hold on.
Hold, please.
brendan schaub
Matt Brown choked him out guillotine.
Really?
It was a heck of a fight.
Not fight of the night, but a heck of a fight.
This year, fight of the night right there.
bryan callen
That right there.
How long did it last?
brendan schaub
It was late in the first round.
There's like, I think, a minute or 30 seconds left, right, Jamie?
Yeah.
bryan callen
That's a big win for Matt Brown.
brendan schaub
Huge win.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I mean, he's ranked number five.
I don't think Tim Means was ranked, but still, matchup-wise.
bryan callen
Jesus.
brendan schaub
Huge win.
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
Do you think that's psychological?
Did you see that pre-fight thing where they were on stage together and then like the other guy?
They're called the weigh-ins.
Alright, baby.
Alright, the weigh-ins.
bryan callen
Brendan's the guy to ask that question.
unidentified
The weigh-ins.
bobby lee
But you know how, will you get into somebody's mindset if you are like crazy up there?
brendan schaub
No.
No.
unidentified
Because you know what, you know.
Yeah, yeah.
Because you see the guy who put his hand on Robbie Lawler's face like that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it does nothing.
unidentified
It doesn't?
brendan schaub
It does nothing.
It's all for show to hype the fight.
unidentified
I would cry.
brendan schaub
And so everybody there knows, everybody there knows their, I mean, No one's worried about anything.
Yeah.
Literally, it's like, what?
You just want to weigh and get out of there because you know you're one day close to the fight.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's when things get real.
That's when you're like, oh, there's no turn back now.
bryan callen
That's where you get nervous.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it's like, oh, damn.
bryan callen
I said to Brennan he was going to fight Andre Arlowski.
And Andre Arlowski's a monster.
He's fighting for the title.
And Brennan beat him, by the way.
brendan schaub
He's hairier than Callen.
bryan callen
Yeah.
And I said, how are you feeling?
And Brennan goes, scared.
And that's all he said.
I was like, Jesus.
That's honesty right there.
unidentified
Does he still wear the mouth guard with the...
brendan schaub
With the fangs?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He's one of my favorite fighters.
unidentified
You fought him before, right?
brendan schaub
And beat him.
Yeah.
unidentified
I was on the wrestling team in high school.
I used to get really nervous before meets and stuff.
brendan schaub
Hell yeah.
unidentified
Really nervous.
brendan schaub
Anything one-on-one.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm sure you got nervous before you do stand-up.
When you first started.
unidentified
Yeah, but the wrestling was still more nerve-wracking for me.
When I was a kid, I didn't know how to deal with that kind of pressure, really.
brendan schaub
Yeah, man.
As a kid, it's horrible.
I'll tell you what I am digging is the new layout of the UFC. The design.
Everything's a lot cleaner.
The graphics are cleaner.
It's a lot more professional.
I like that.
Just to let everyone know, this is the first night that the guys are wearing the Reebok Kits, as they call them.
So you can't have any other sponsors.
The fighters have to wear these designated Reebok kits.
So everything looks a lot cleaner.
Obviously the graphics are a lot cleaner.
I love the look.
What I don't like...
The Octagon looks like a NASCAR now.
So now the fighters look cleaner, but the Octagon's dirtier.
Wait till you see the Octagon.
There's literally ads everywhere, but then the fighters are super clean.
So the only issue I have with that, I love the whole look of the UFC. I'm actually not even mad at the kits because it's super clean looking.
But now the octagon looks dirty.
And then when you have all those sponsors, no one's seen any of that money.
The fighters aren't seeing the money.
So for the UFC, it's great.
But for the guys with the talent inside the octagon, they're not seeing any of that.
That's the issue I have.
But I'm sure times have changed.
However, the look, I approve.
Surprisingly, I approve.
I thought people were going to think I was going to hate on it.
Not at all.
I actually like the cleaner look.
It looks more like the NFL or NHL. Yeah.
Which is what they're going for.
bryan callen
I get it.
The sport's growing and...
Here it is.
Look at Mr. Pickett.
brendan schaub
People are crunk for this fight.
Pretty crunk.
bryan callen
I hung out with him.
He came to my show in Florida with Thiago Alves and Matt Brown and Mike Brown.
brendan schaub
Is he your friend now?
bryan callen
I was loving it because he's not a big guy, but he dresses very well.
He was wearing a...
brendan schaub
Had a hat on, right?
bryan callen
Had a beautiful, beautiful polo on.
And I think it was a pink polo.
And I was like, he's a small badass.
Not afraid to wear a pink polo.
I was very impressed with him.
unidentified
I was in first class once with Hoyler Gracie.
And then when we landed in New York, I asked him for a hug and he hugged me.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
Was he cool about it?
unidentified
I didn't say anything the whole flight because I was so intimidated, you know?
If it was Hickson, I would have not said anything at all.
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
But it was Hoyler.
He's gentler looking.
bryan callen
I saw Hickson at Pacific...
brendan schaub
Hickson's a timepiece.
bryan callen
Yes, at Pacific Greens about ten years ago.
brendan schaub
Good looking dude.
bryan callen
Understand how he looked like a superhero.
I didn't know what to say, so I go, Hickson, hi.
I used to train with Hansel in New York.
brendan schaub
You said it like that?
bryan callen
That probably pissed him off.
He goes, Hansel, okay.
I was like, okay.
brendan schaub
He said, beat it, peasant.
bryan callen
They get along, don't they, or they don't?
brendan schaub
I don't know exactly the relationship with everyone.
I'm sure.
I'm sure.
Hickson's a beast.
bryan callen
He's a beast.
brendan schaub
He's probably the best looking one.
Let's be honest.
bryan callen
Let's be honest.
brendan schaub
Him or Henner.
Henner's a good looking dude.
bryan callen
Did you ever see Henner's a stud?
Of course.
brendan schaub
I'm not saying studs.
I'm saying good looking.
unidentified
No, good looking.
bryan callen
Henner, come on.
Henner's a 6'4 with a Calvin Klein body?
brendan schaub
6'5 probably.
bryan callen
About 6'5.
brendan schaub
6'5.
unidentified
Who do you guys think the best looking guy in UFC is?
Who's the best looking guy in UFC? Luke Rockhold, Brandon Chobbs up there.
brendan schaub
I don't know if I'm up there.
bryan callen
Brandon Jobs in the top three.
unidentified
You're very pretty.
You're a very handsome guy.
Pretty?
No, I mean like in a good way.
Hey, you're hot.
You're hot, dude.
Yeah, bro.
brendan schaub
Thanks, brother.
unidentified
He looks like a 1950s doorman.
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
You know what I mean?
Like you're in Detroit.
bryan callen
I think he looks 100% Puerto Rican.
brendan schaub
I look like I wrangled tigers.
That's why I look like...
What do you think?
If I grab the mustache?
unidentified
Lion tamer.
brendan schaub
Lion tamer.
Maybe.
bryan callen
You need a mustache.
If you had a mustache, you'd look like one of those 1920s strongmen.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
That's what you'd look like.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I like to go the old school haircut.
I like the Great Gatsby.
That's what inspired this.
bryan callen
I want to say that unless you're Chuck Liddell, you're not allowed to have a mohawk.
This is not this guy, his trainer.
If you're 40, you can't have a mohawk.
You just can't.
brendan schaub
I agree, unless you're Chuck Liddell.
bryan callen
It's time to stop.
brendan schaub
Roy McDonald goes with the same haircut.
I'll tell you what, as far as marketing goes, not feeling that haircut, Roy.
And Roy's my boy.
bryan callen
And you know marketing.
Why do you not like that for him?
You want him clean cut.
brendan schaub
You know, Rory dresses well, speaks well.
He's a little introverted, but he speaks well, man.
So why not do it up with the hair, man?
Grow it up.
unidentified
Brad Pickett is dressed like Flea.
I don't like it.
He plays bass for a band.
bryan callen
That is Flea.
Flea doubles as Brad Pickett.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, though, this little dude can punch!
bryan callen
He can hit, huh?
brendan schaub
Yes, he can box his ass off.
bryan callen
Well, he started, I guess, that was his first discipline.
brendan schaub
Boxing, yeah.
Tiny little dude.
bryan callen
He's a small guy.
brendan schaub
You guys like those Reebok kits?
What do you think?
bryan callen
I don't mind them.
I don't really have a strong opinion.
brendan schaub
No?
bryan callen
I'm liking Mike Brown's beard.
That guy that...
brendan schaub
Former WC world champion.
bryan callen
Yes, he was.
brendan schaub
He was a stud back in the day.
bryan callen
A true stud.
brendan schaub
Super stud.
unidentified
It reminds me of communism, the colors and stuff, and the kits.
bryan callen
Well, in a way, you're not far off the mark, because if you have to wear something, the fighters no longer can be sponsored, right?
So they can't wear sponsors, and their money isn't as...
they don't make any money anymore.
unidentified
Right.
bryan callen
It's tough.
jamie vernon
How about that Cutman utility vest those guys have on?
brendan schaub
Where?
I didn't see it.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
brendan schaub
Because they used to have their own stuff, right?
Stitch used to definitely have his own stuff.
Stitch might be more famous than a lot of fighters.
The Cutman Stitch.
You see him in Klitschko's corner.
You see him in everyone's corner.
Klitschko won't fight without Stitch.
You know that?
unidentified
Stitch is the best.
brendan schaub
Yeah, Stitch is the Cutman.
unidentified
That's a human being, Stitch?
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
His real name's, I think, Stitch Duran.
I don't know his real first name, but he's like the nicest guy ever.
He works with the best of the best.
Like, there's some guys who schedule their fights around so Stitch can come.
Klitschko's one of them.
bryan callen
Now, you walk out here, your emotions are all over the place, right?
brendan schaub
No, here you're good, because here you're good, you touch gloves, and it's just, it's go time.
bryan callen
It's go time.
brendan schaub
You're almost in cruise control.
For me, I just need to get like three minutes past the first round, and I'm good.
Right.
But trouble before then, because you're so nervous, you know?
Yes.
You can kind of make mistakes.
You can see the pros kind of chill out, they calm down, and they feel it out a little bit.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Heavyweights, there's really no feeling out.
unidentified
Can I ask you something?
Do you know where your mom is?
I already know.
I googled it.
But do you know where your mom and your girlfriend and stuff are when you're in the ring or no?
brendan schaub
No, not a clue.
bryan callen
He knows where I am.
brendan schaub
For reals, I know where Brian's at.
That's it.
unidentified
Really?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
Oh.
brendan schaub
It's weird, right?
unidentified
Because I wouldn't know.
I would be in my head like, Mom's on the third row.
brendan schaub
No, I have no idea.
I have no idea.
unidentified
Okay.
bryan callen
You can't think that way.
unidentified
Why?
bryan callen
And I would imagine the bulk of the nerves is that you just want to perform well.
It's not about getting hurt.
brendan schaub
No, I don't even think about getting hurt.
I just want to win.
I'm more nervous about losing than anything.
unidentified
But do you know you're losing when you're losing?
brendan schaub
No, I always think I was.
Every time I thought I was winning.
If I didn't get stopped, obviously, but if it goes past the first round, I always thought I was winning.
Every single fight.
Erlowski, I thought no question I won that fight.
Without a doubt.
I was like, oh.
Even Rogan came in and was like, I think you got it.
I think you got it.
And then when it went the other way, everyone was like, what?
And that's why the crowd was booing.
unidentified
Oh.
bryan callen
That sucks.
brendan schaub
Yeah, fight game.
Vancouver.
That's my fault for leaving it to the judges.
Not the best performance.
That's on me.
bryan callen
Well, you're forgiven.
brendan schaub
Thank you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
England, Brad Pickett.
The Caddies fighting undefeated, 19-0.
bryan callen
I bet you your coaches are more nervous at this point.
Big John, that's a tight shirt.
Big John.
brendan schaub
Got a set of tits on him.
He's the best.
bryan callen
He's my favorite ref by far.
brendan schaub
He's also a cop.
He's a badass.
He's the best we got.
By far the best we got.
He's so intense in the back when he comes back.
Oh man.
Super intense.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
I think Pickett's the biggest underdog on the main card.
He is?
bryan callen
He's underdog here?
brendan schaub
I think he's plus 550. The caddy's fighting this Brazilian Almeida's 19-0, man.
Doing something right if you're 19-0.
unidentified
Unless you're fighting Powerpuffs.
brendan schaub
There he is.
Look at him.
Yeah, minus 660. I mean, what's the point of even betting?
bryan callen
Explain what minus 660 is.
I'm an idiot when it comes to gambling.
brendan schaub
You'd have to put $660 on it to win $100.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
That's a bad deal.
bryan callen
That's ridiculous.
unidentified
I can't believe Robbie Lawler is the underdog.
brendan schaub
You know what?
I get it.
You know why?
Because Roy can wrestle.
bryan callen
Rory is so good.
Rory is so good.
brendan schaub
He did beat him before.
I know.
unidentified
Yeah, I know.
brendan schaub
I agree.
I'll tell you what.
I would not want to be an odds maker in Vegas that does fighting odds.
bryan callen
Why?
Because if anything happens...
brendan schaub
Like Connor Chad.
It's a 12-day notice?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Right?
Right around 12-day notice.
You've got to make those odds.
We don't know what Chad was doing.
Was he in camp training?
Because I know Chad...
The thing about Chad is he'll take some time off.
He's known to take time off and then go into camp...
When he has a fight.
bryan callen
I didn't know that.
I didn't know he takes time off.
brendan schaub
He's known as a guy that hunts and takes some time off.
So was he in camp, or did he get the call and he's playing grab ass with warthogs and wherever, and it was like, shit, I better get in there.
12 days, I'll fight Connor in 12 days' notice.
unidentified
So the people who set the odds are privy to that type of information?
brendan schaub
No, no.
That's the thing.
That's why betting on fighting is tough.
bryan callen
I'm very nervous about the Conor McGregor fight.
brendan schaub
But what makes me nervous about the Conor fight, my heart, I want Conor to win.
He's the best thing to happen in the UFC in a long time since Brock Lesnar.
By far, great left hand.
bryan callen
These guys are banging, by the way.
brendan schaub
Super banging.
But did you see Conor during the weigh-ins?
He was drawn the fuck out.
unidentified
He really was.
bryan callen
He looked very thin.
brendan schaub
He looked like Dallas Buyers Club.
unidentified
He was wearing sunglasses throughout the whole thing, and I was wondering why, and then I saw how...
Oh!
bryan callen
Pick it!
brendan schaub
Big left hand.
bryan callen
Oh, pick it!
brendan schaub
When you take him down, it gives him a chance to recover.
bryan callen
What are you doing?
brendan schaub
You're a boxer!
Well, he's an MMA fighter, Brian.
bryan callen
I know, I know.
brendan schaub
Don't ever say that.
bryan callen
Come on, come on.
You had him.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
brendan schaub
No, no, don't take him down.
There you go.
unidentified
It's over.
brendan schaub
There you go.
bryan callen
Come on, come on.
Come on.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
Now what?
No, no, no!
brendan schaub
No, he's out.
He's out.
No, let him stand up, man.
He's rocked.
See, a guy can recover when you do this.
bryan callen
Right.
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
Big elbow.
bryan callen
He really took him out there.
Wow.
unidentified
That's huge.
brendan schaub
He's still not right.
bryan callen
Come on, come on.
He's not right.
He's not right.
brendan schaub
We don't want to rush in, B. Right.
bryan callen
He's being patient.
He's being patient.
brendan schaub
It's called being a pro.
bryan callen
It's called being a pro, Brandon.
brendan schaub
Believe me, I've rushed in there, Brian Callen.
bryan callen
And paid a price.
brendan schaub
Paid a deep, deep price against a guy named Ben Rothwell.
I think he's number six in the world now.
bryan callen
God damn it.
unidentified
So what's Pickett feeling right now?
What is he thinking?
brendan schaub
He's staying calm.
He definitely knows he's winning the fight.
He's winning the exchanges.
So Pickett's getting momentum here, and it's weird.
It's like your gas tank comes back.
Even if you're tired and you rock the guy, you're like, damn.
You don't even think about getting tired.
unidentified
Is he happy that he's bleeding?
Does he think to himself, yeah, he's bleeding.
bryan callen
I'm loving the way Pickett, like his angles and stuff.
Look at him.
unidentified
Oh, shit!
brendan schaub
Oh!
unidentified
Snap, son!
bryan callen
This is a fight.
unidentified
This is a good fight.
bryan callen
Wow.
Wow.
brendan schaub
Damn.
unidentified
Damn.
brendan schaub
Ooh, he's rocked.
unidentified
He's at war.
brendan schaub
What a great fight.
bryan callen
Jesus.
unidentified
Oh, snap!
bryan callen
Pickett stands right there.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Tell you what, for one of the biggest...
unidentified
Oh, snaps!
brendan schaub
For one of the biggest UFC fights of all time, cards of all time, that's exactly how you want to start this thing off.
bryan callen
Yeah, it is.
brendan schaub
Oh, snaps!
There's a reason these boys kicked this fight off, or card off.
bryan callen
Good God.
Pickett, keep your hands up.
Wow.
I'll tell you what, my man Alameda came back here.
unidentified
He's...
brendan schaub
A tough round to score.
Super tough round to score.
I would still give it to Pickett.
bryan callen
Got it.
Caught him twice.
brendan schaub
Caught him twice.
Well, there's still a minute left.
That's a lot of time to change things.
You see what I'm saying about the octagon though?
bryan callen
Yes.
brendan schaub
So the Octagon's NASCAR, but the fighters are clean now.
So you just flip the script.
So now the UFC, you know...
bryan callen
By the way, they're wearing the same shorts, kind of, right?
I mean, it's hard to say, well, one guy in the white...
brendan schaub
Oh, I agree.
I don't think you should do white and black.
I think one guy should be in all red, and one guy should be in all blue or all black.
Because the corners are red and blue, right?
So we have the shorts red and blue to distinct between the two.
Because they look very fucking similar.
unidentified
They do.
brendan schaub
It's very confusing.
bryan callen
They really do.
unidentified
Oh!
Oh!
brendan schaub
Snaps!
bryan callen
Dude, Pickett's got...
He's punching on angles here, right, Brendan?
What's he doing here?
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah.
High-level boxer, man.
unidentified
He is, right?
brendan schaub
Super high-level boxer.
bryan callen
That's a little detail.
He's slipping.
Like, he's standing there and able to see the...
brendan schaub
My boy Almeida is freaking winning the 10. He's throwing...
unidentified
Oh!
Oh!
Snaps!
brendan schaub
Great fight!
What a round!
unidentified
What a great round!
Wow!
Round!
brendan schaub
Look at him!
bryan callen
Jesus!
unidentified
Oh my god!
brendan schaub
Reebok!
unidentified
Good for Reebok!
brendan schaub
Yeah, right?
unidentified
They really came up.
brendan schaub
Good for them, I know.
Long way from Reebok pumps.
Long way.
unidentified
When did they even start making fight shorts?
brendan schaub
Right now.
unidentified
This is the first fight.
brendan schaub
Yeah, this is the very first fight.
unidentified
Amazing.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, though.
I like the clean look.
I like the...
You know, I've been really outspoken how I don't like Reebok, but I like the clean look.
unidentified
You do, right?
brendan schaub
Does that make sense?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
It looks better.
But the octagon's messy.
unidentified
So you like the uniformity of the fighters?
brendan schaub
I like the uniform, but what I think we should have done is said, alright, Reebok's going to supply you guys with all this gear.
You can have any other sponsors, just no apparel sponsors.
You can't have anything else but no apparel.
So now the fighters look basic, but the octagon looks like a fucking taxi cab with those...
bryan callen
Looks like a Jackson Pollock painting, as they say.
brendan schaub
Hey, is there any way we can get more ring girls?
Because I don't think four is enough.
Can we get eight?
Is there any way we can get eight?
bryan callen
There it is.
These guys are doing it here.
brendan schaub
Doing it?
What were you going to say?
unidentified
I don't know.
brendan schaub
You're going to say these guys are sweating?
unidentified
These guys are tough and sweating.
brendan schaub
Boy, these guys are fighting.
bryan callen
They're fighting.
brendan schaub
Brian will throw that in every now and then.
Boy, these guys are breathing.
bryan callen
I like the way he's moving.
Brendan, you know what I'm doing?
Ask me what I'm doing when I watch this fight.
brendan schaub
You're acting like you're moving?
bryan callen
I'm studying.
brendan schaub
You're studying him?
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
I'm using this.
unidentified
Oh!
Oh!
Snaps!
brendan schaub
Flying knee, son!
unidentified
Wow!
What a winner!
brendan schaub
20-0!
20-0.
Can we rank this guy in the top 15 now?
bryan callen
Holy shit.
unidentified
Wow, that's amazing.
Good.
That's a perfect example of what you just said.
First round, sort of a little bit tentative, and then he just picked it up halfway through.
bryan callen
That's what's heartbreaking about this sport, man.
Does such a good job and gets caught with a knee.
brendan schaub
At this level, even at this weight, there's just no room for error, man.
You take one time off and it's just...
I'm not saying Pigott took time off, but there's no gap for error.
Every other sport, you can kind of get away with it.
unidentified
Boom!
brendan schaub
Great stop by McCarthy.
bryan callen
I agree 100%.
brendan schaub
You have Eve Levine, you're going to get your ass, whoops, son, down at the bottom there.
That's Eve Levine, you're in trouble.
unidentified
Would he not have stopped that one?
brendan schaub
No, he's going to take a couple of hits.
bryan callen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not good for his head.
Oh, shit, I don't like that.
unidentified
Look at this.
Who lets it run?
Boom!
bryan callen
What a beautiful jab.
unidentified
Eve Levine does?
brendan schaub
If Eve Levine comes in the bag and he's like, I'm going to be your referee tonight, I go, oh, shit.
unidentified
Who's the most prudent?
brendan schaub
McCarthy's the best in the business.
And McCarthy usually does...
I bet he's the main event guy.
McCarthy usually does the big fights.
Because he's so damn good.
There's not too much controversy with McCarthy.
unidentified
But Pickett got back up, though.
I mean, like, right away.
bryan callen
He didn't die.
unidentified
Yeah, but why did they stop it?
bryan callen
Because he was out.
unidentified
A couple more minutes.
No, no.
A couple more minutes.
Why?
Two more minutes.
brendan schaub
You don't want the guy to die.
Two more minutes?
unidentified
Yeah.
I mean, he got up.
It's not like he was, like, laying there.
You know what?
brendan schaub
You know what?
unidentified
No, he wasn't.
He got up.
brendan schaub
No, he was fucked up.
He was super fucked up.
unidentified
That's, like, automaticity.
Like, that's...
I don't even know what that word means, but let me tell you this right now.
The guy got up, and he deserves two more minutes.
Two more minutes.
brendan schaub
That's some boxing shit.
So boxing, you get dropped like that, a ref comes up and goes, one, two, so you can kind of gather your shit and get back together.
That's why you get horrible brain damage.
That's why the UFC is safer.
unidentified
Just saying the ratings would go up a little bit more if he got two more minutes.
bryan callen
If he took out a knife and slit his throat.
I think there should be knives.
Personally, knives.
unidentified
So what you're saying is that he got up because of gut instinct, like just his body is behaving.
bryan callen
When you saw him get caught, he got knocked out on his feet, he landed on the ground, he was out, and then he came to.
unidentified
He wasn't out.
bryan callen
And then he came to, but it's very dangerous to let a fight go after that.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal fight, though.
bryan callen
Phenomenal.
Phenomenal fight.
unidentified
Boom!
brendan schaub
Great left hook.
bryan callen
Picket did a great job.
He just got caught against a great fighter.
brendan schaub
Now, is there any way we could spray paint some more sponsors?
I mean, I see a couple areas open on the map.
bryan callen
But that's valuable real estate, right?
So how much does that cost Monster?
It would probably cost them millions just to rent that space.
brendan schaub
Yeah, not cheap for the biggest fight.
bryan callen
They can do it on my chest if they want for that kind of money.
unidentified
Is this a bad deal for fighters, then, that they're made to wear all Reebok in terms of just sponsorship?
bryan callen
For fighters like Brendan, yes.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
Money-wise, yeah.
brendan schaub
Yeah, not good.
unidentified
Yeah, I figured.
bryan callen
Because typically, if you become a fighter who has got a following like Brendan, or if you're a fighter that has...
brendan schaub
Really, anyone.
bryan callen
Yeah, you can wear, you can make cut deals with various companies and say, give me 40 grand and I'll wear this t-shirt.
Boom!
unidentified
But Brian, can they wear their own sponsorship during interviews?
No.
bryan callen
Not a week, right?
Not the week of.
unidentified
Well, that's not fair.
How is that fair?
brendan schaub
That's life, my man.
It's out of our control.
bryan callen
If you want to be a fighter, if you want to make a lot of money, you probably don't want to be an MMA fighter.
I mean, if you're the exception like Brandon, okay.
brendan schaub
Or you gotta be a 1%er and win non-stop.
bobby lee
Like the U.S. female World Cup soccer team, right?
unidentified
They make, what, $50,000, $60,000 a year.
Not a lot of money.
But the reason why, what's that chick's name, the hot one?
What's her name?
Alex Morgan.
Alex Morgan makes $300,000, $400,000, $500,000 because of sponsorship, endorsements.
brendan schaub
But she's not wearing those endorsements on the soccer field.
She's getting it from Gatorade, Nike, all that stuff.
unidentified
Oh, for the commercial, yeah, yeah.
bryan callen
Wilmer's a good guy, man.
brendan schaub
Is he a buddy, Brian?
bryan callen
I hung out with him, and he was a cool dude.
unidentified
He did Mad TV a couple of times, Will.
He's a really nice guy, yeah.
brendan schaub
Because that 70s show, he's killing it on that 70s show, right?
bryan callen
Yeah, he doesn't act as much.
He's more into politics.
He's thinking about going into politics.
At least that's when I talked to him.
brendan schaub
Well, because his show got syndicated, so he's just getting boatloads of money.
Because your show gets syndicated, you're boned.
70's show, think how big that was.
bryan callen
Yeah, I don't know.
brendan schaub
70's show is huge.
bryan callen
Bobby, how much do you think guys like that make now, though?
I don't know.
What are the residuals?
brendan schaub
A ton.
70's show?
unidentified
He probably makes, residual-wise?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
He could probably make a couple hundred thousand, maybe.
A year?
A year, yeah.
That's it?
bryan callen
Not more than that.
brendan schaub
Wow, I thought he'd make more than that.
bryan callen
You'd be surprised.
unidentified
You'd be surprised, yeah.
brendan schaub
Ashton Kutcher's ballin', though.
unidentified
Yeah, but he's on Two and a Half Men, though, right?
He's making all the money on that.
bryan callen
He also has a lot of other businesses.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
He's an investor on Twitter and stuff.
brendan schaub
You know, he got into Airbnb.
Twitter and Airbnb when it first started.
unidentified
Only a few people.
brendan schaub
Powerful Chad Mendes.
bobby lee
Like Eric Stonestreet is making a shitload of money.
unidentified
You know Stonestreet?
brendan schaub
Which one's he?
unidentified
He's on Modern Family.
He plays Cam, the fat gay guy.
brendan schaub
Is he gay in real life?
No.
But the redhead is.
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah.
unidentified
Chad Mendes.
brendan schaub
Paige Van Ant's in the back.
Not mad at her at all.
unidentified
She's gorgeous.
brendan schaub
Super pretty.
unidentified
Oh my god, she's gorgeous.
brendan schaub
It's hard for me to watch her get punched in the face.
There's the man of the hour.
Love the suit.
Love it.
bryan callen
Look at him.
brendan schaub
Five fights in the UFC, and he's the biggest star.
How cool is that?
bryan callen
Look at him.
He's awesome.
Because he backs it up.
What's going on in his head right now, Brennan?
You can't get in there, but what do you think?
If you had to guess as a fighter?
brendan schaub
For him, man, he's a different animal, man.
I think he's just excited to get in there, you know?
bryan callen
Oh, can we turn the sound up on this?
brendan schaub
No, I think we're good, Brian.
For a commercial, we're good.
bryan callen
I like it.
brendan schaub
Don't ever listen to Brian on sound.
unidentified
Ever.
bryan callen
Oh, look at this.
unidentified
Boom.
Jesus.
brendan schaub
I think Ronda's the most dominant Female mixed martial arts athlete, but I think Serena Williams is the most dominant female athlete.
She just won Wimbledon.
unidentified
Did she beat Venus, right?
brendan schaub
Yes.
bryan callen
She won today.
brendan schaub
She won today, and think about the competition she's facing.
bryan callen
Worldwide.
For everyone from Russia to Tennessee.
brendan schaub
I think her record this year is something like 45-1.
And the thing is, she's competing all the time, nonstop.
Ronda competes twice a year, right?
Like, Betch, Korea...
unidentified
Okay.
brendan schaub
That's a tough sell, man.
bryan callen
Yeah, it is.
brendan schaub
That's a fucking tough sell.
Like, Serena's going to war.
bryan callen
She's going to war.
brendan schaub
With the best of the world.
bryan callen
She's playing four and five hour sets.
brendan schaub
And how long has tennis been around?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Women's tennis is a big deal.
bryan callen
Yes, it is.
brendan schaub
So the competition is way higher than women's MMA. I'm not hating on Rhonda.
We all know I love Rhonda.
unidentified
Can I say something?
bryan callen
She's considered the best female.
Tennis player ever now.
brendan schaub
Ever!
So when Sports Illustrated said Ronda Rousey, best, most dominant female athlete of all time, I disagree.
Serena Williams is by far better.
unidentified
She's been around for so long.
May I say something?
brendan schaub
Go ahead, sir.
unidentified
I did a sketch with Serena Williams, and she's very nice, but she smelled funny.
That's all I have to say.
bryan callen
Damn it!
brendan schaub
She really smelled weird.
unidentified
That's racist.
No, that had nothing to do with that.
bryan callen
Wait, wait.
She smelled funny.
Was it possible that she ate some...
unidentified
No, we did a sketch where we played tennis, right?
And then I took a photo with her, and she smelled funny.
That's all I'm saying.
bryan callen
What do you mean smells funny?
unidentified
No, like hot blood.
bryan callen
Like hot blood?
That might be testosterone.
unidentified
Something was curdled.
Like curdled blood.
brendan schaub
I've never smoked curdled blood.
Neither have I. What would you compare it to?
unidentified
Like a bratwurst?
Yeah.
Like maybe Spam?
bryan callen
Everybody smells funny sometimes, but listen.
unidentified
Alright, well, it wasn't a thing.
I have nothing against her athleticism.
bryan callen
No, you hate Serena Williams.
unidentified
That's not what I said.
brendan schaub
No, you said it.
bryan callen
Let's just twist his words around.
unidentified
Alright.
bryan callen
You said she smells like death.
unidentified
She's a nice person, that's all.
She smells funny.
That's just a fact.
Let's move on.
brendan schaub
Hey, I'll tell you what.
She's too much for you, Calen.
bryan callen
Oh, 100%.
brendan schaub
Too much.
bryan callen
Are you kidding?
brendan schaub
Bobby Lee, too much for you?
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
Had a conversation with her.
She's too much for me.
I was looking at her ass and her legs and her arms.
I was like, well, I'm way too light in the ass.
brendan schaub
Oh, no, no, no.
bryan callen
I'm too light in the ass.
brendan schaub
No, I went to, it was in Miami.
It was like the Miami Open or something like that.
And I knew her agent and they brought me in the back while she was warming up.
And I was like, Jesus Christ.
She's too much for me.
She's too much of an animal.
bryan callen
And you're a big...
unidentified
You mean to make love to?
bryan callen
Is that what you're saying?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
To tangle the sheets naked, Bobby.
bryan callen
She'll toss me around like a baton, like a circus baton.
brendan schaub
She would eat you like a sardine.
You're an appetizer.
You're a waste of her fucking time.
unidentified
Her thigh, one thigh alone is the size of your waist.
I saw her at the Australian Open in Melbourne.
She is so just beautifully muscular on everything.
She's pretty, though.
She's gorgeous.
She's super pretty.
I think she's a very pretty face.
She's just...
bryan callen
I smelled her.
I smelled her.
She smelled like apricots.
brendan schaub
And she has some tiggle bitties.
Tiggle bitties and a blowout ass.
bryan callen
A blowout ass, sir.
brendan schaub
More athletic than anyone in this room.
bryan callen
Sir, you could rest all your books on that ass.
That is a shelf.
brendan schaub
I can't handle that.
She's too much for me, which I've never said that before in my life, but she's too much, sir.
She's way too much.
bryan callen
She dated LeVon Arrington for a couple of minutes.
brendan schaub
LeVon Arrington.
bryan callen
LeVon Arrington.
brendan schaub
And then Roy Williams, right?
unidentified
Didn't she do Common?
brendan schaub
Oh yeah, she did date Common.
unidentified
Good call.
He's sort of like a slender guy.
He's small.
brendan schaub
He's probably whispering in the air some fucking poems and shit.
bryan callen
Or he's driving.
brendan schaub
Common has a fucking...
bryan callen
He's riding high.
He's riding high, deep, and true.
brendan schaub
Common has that tan iguana dick 100%.
My boy Brandon Thatch.
So, at Wish Nightclub in Denver, Colorado, the security team was myself, Brandon Thatch, and Cody Donovan.
That was the security team.
bryan callen
That's a problem.
I don't want any trouble with any of that.
I don't want to cause any problems.
brendan schaub
Brandon Thatch's dad is known freaking around Denver.
He's such a badass.
There's pressure on Brandon growing up because his dad, Clarence Thatch, was such a badass in Denver.
Kickboxer, ran a gym.
He trained his son since he was little.
So, Brandon's always been kind of this...
He's been the guy in the gym who was never super dedicated, but he was the most talented by far.
And I'd always say, if that kid ever got his shit together, he's going to be champion one day.
He's going to be a monster.
unidentified
Does he have his shit together?
brendan schaub
He has his shit together.
He got his shit together.
He's in the UFC right now.
bryan callen
How does he suck that much weight?
What's he walking around with?
unidentified
He's huge.
brendan schaub
He's huge, man.
God, I can't remember the last time I've seen him.
He's the biggest welterweight I know.
He's bigger than St. Pierre by far.
bryan callen
Jesus.
brendan schaub
By far.
St. Pierre used to fly Thatch up when he was getting ready for Condit.
bryan callen
Wow.
brendan schaub
St. Pierre would fly Thatch up.
Thatch's stand-up is second to none, man.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
If he can get comfortable, it's second to none.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
You want to talk about a ladies' man?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
If you're talking about the freaking CEO of Black Belts and Chicken Heads.
bryan callen
Is that right?
brendan schaub
He's the CEO. I'm an intern.
He's a cutie pie.
He pulls more girls than I do.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
100%.
bryan callen
He's got narrow shoulders.
brendan schaub
You know why?
He's a raver.
He was a raver forever.
Before fights in Denver, this fool would turn on like nunchucks with flames.
I swear to God.
And he goes before he'd walk out.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
Dime piece.
The way he's talking to a girl.
Powerful Lester Bowling.
That's Elliot Marshall, my good buddy.
And that's Christian Allen, my first coach.
bryan callen
Where's Lester Bowling?
brendan schaub
Lester Bowling's right there.
bryan callen
Okay.
brendan schaub
He's the guy who looks like a fire hydrant with ears.
bryan callen
Yep, yep.
Wrestler?
brendan schaub
Phenomenal wrestler.
He was the head coach for GSP for wrestling, myself, Shane Carlin, Nate Mark Hart.
You're talking about the cream of the crop, at least they're bowling, man.
They don't get better than him.
bobby lee
The old man behind him is Edward James Olmos.
bryan callen
That's exactly right.
brendan schaub
And then Elliot Marshall, he runs Easton's in Denver.
He's a black belt, competing in jiu-jitsu forever, competing in the UFC. And then to the left is Christian Allen, who is Thatch's striking coach.
I'm telling you, if Thatch can get loose, you're going to see a crazy-ass knockout tonight.
If he gets comfortable.
I've seen this boy do some shit.
He's like a giant...
Listen to this.
He's like a giant Anthony Pettis.
He can go both ways.
bryan callen
Oh, boy.
brendan schaub
He can go orthodox, unorthodox.
He's crazy.
Southpaw, whatever.
Look how big he is.
bryan callen
He's big.
brendan schaub
But you know what?
If there's an Achilles heel to Brandon Thatch, you know what it is?
bryan callen
I can say what it is.
brendan schaub
Go ahead.
bryan callen
My guess is that he's easily broken.
unidentified
No.
No.
brendan schaub
God damn it.
No, Brian.
Not at all.
bryan callen
He's a warrior.
unidentified
God damn it.
Okay.
brendan schaub
You don't get the...
bryan callen
No!
unidentified
Hold on, hold on.
Jiu-Jitsu!
bryan callen
Ah, shit.
I meant Jiu-Jitsu.
brendan schaub
He's been working on it, but...
bryan callen
I meant Jiu-Jitsu.
brendan schaub
He's never been a guy that...
bryan callen
I had to attack his character.
unidentified
God damn it.
Why?
bryan callen
He's a good guy.
I don't know.
brendan schaub
He breaks easy.
Yeah, man.
He's on one of the biggest UFC fight cards of the year because he breaks easy.
unidentified
Right, right.
That's so funny.
brendan schaub
He's a beast.
bryan callen
You know what else?
If Brennan's friends with somebody, he's going to defend him to the fucking death.
unidentified
Really?
brendan schaub
This is true.
We're friends now.
unidentified
You can't see it.
brendan schaub
I get bullied a lot.
You can tell.
unidentified
Look at me.
brendan schaub
I'll come to Laugh Act and slap some people around.
unidentified
Okay, thank you.
bryan callen
Yeah, Brennan will beat up everybody.
unidentified
Now, this guy right here, though.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal jiu-jitsu.
unidentified
But he has really pretty eyes.
His eyes are nice.
bryan callen
He's from Iceland!
unidentified
Doesn't he train with Connor, right?
brendan schaub
Very close friend.
That's why everyone's cheering for him.
The only time we should turn this up is when Connor walks out.
That's the only time we should turn it up.
unidentified
I agree with him.
brendan schaub
Oh, turn this Carl's Jr. commercial up.
bryan callen
Well, I like commercials.
brendan schaub
If this fight goes to the ground, I'm a little worried about it.
Good luck getting Thatch down, though.
Good luck getting him down.
Phenomenal takedown defense.
Crazy knees.
bryan callen
Yikes.
He's got to know that, too.
I don't know how one goes in there, and you're fighting a monster, and he's going to try to knee and kick and punch your head off, and there are really no gloves.
brendan schaub
Well, the thing is, when your jiu-jitsu is as good as Gunnar Nelson, you've beat guys like Jeff Monson, you're not too concerned about, you know?
Like, he's been there with tough guys.
bryan callen
Yeah, doesn't matter.
brendan schaub
He's taken every opponent down.
Yeah, he's never fought a guy like Thatch in the UFC, not even close.
I think his last fight was Rick Story, right?
He lost by decision?
I think it was a close decision.
He lost to Rick Story.
bryan callen
That's a body that has never done steroids right there, ladies and gentlemen.
unidentified
Rick Story actually was able to take him down.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
You know what?
Thatch's wrestling is not bad at all.
I wouldn't be surprised if Thatch takes him down and just makes it up.
unidentified
My girlfriend knows so much.
I don't.
I'm a passive.
Baby, you know so fucking much.
You know some shit.
brendan schaub
You go, girl.
unidentified
You know more than Brian.
brendan schaub
Hey, man.
unidentified
Hey, fuck you, man.
bryan callen
Don't.
brendan schaub
New show.
The Fighter and the Hot Girl.
unidentified
Brian, you're fine.
Hey, man.
bryan callen
The Fighter and the Hot Girl.
Your girlfriend's very hot, Bobby.
Congratulations!
unidentified
A lot of sex going on.
bryan callen
Dude, by the way, Brandon, that's 6'2".
It's no joke.
brendan schaub
He's huge, but look, only a 2 1⁄2 inch reach.
Advantage.
bryan callen
What does he suck down from?
brendan schaub
He's every bit of 210 pounds.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
And shredded.
bryan callen
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Thatch is a monster, man.
My Colorado boy is proud of those guys.
Love those guys.
bryan callen
Jesus.
unidentified
What's the black guy's name?
Herb Gray?
What's his name?
Herb Dean.
That's it.
I call him Dean.
bryan callen
I call him Herb Dean.
brendan schaub
I'm not gonna lie to you guys.
I heard Herb has a...
Pterodactyl dick.
unidentified
No.
How?
brendan schaub
Straight up.
It's the rumor around the Fight Club, my man.
unidentified
Well, of course he does.
brendan schaub
But see, I wouldn't say of course.
unidentified
What does that mean?
I mean, how tall is he?
bryan callen
6'2"?
He's 7'6".
He's 7'6".
unidentified
He's 6-something, right?
And he's a big African-American?
brendan schaub
Doesn't matter.
unidentified
He's not going to have a little one.
brendan schaub
Well, no.
Shaquille O'Neal.
They say he has a baby bird dick.
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
That's what everyone says.
unidentified
His ex-girlfriend came out and said it was a joke.
There's actually a friend of mine dated a guy in the UFC who's black and she says he's hung like a field mouse.
Which one is it?
bryan callen
I can't say.
brendan schaub
We'll talk about it off here.
I spotted Arnold Schwarzenegger in the crowd.
He loves Conor McGregor.
bryan callen
Here we go.
Here we go.
Look at Gunnar.
Look at Gunner.
brendan schaub
Well, he's used to going with Conner, so he's going to see some kicks.
unidentified
Talk about a clash of styles.
brendan schaub
Come on, Thatchy.
Thatch got the dome on him.
Big head.
bryan callen
He's got a dome.
brendan schaub
Big head.
Thatch is where he has a takedown.
Well, the takedown, my man.
bryan callen
Got to be careful of the takedown.
brendan schaub
Gunner's just trying to get him to the cage.
bryan callen
Oh, ouch, ouch, it's going to hurt.
brendan schaub
A lot of ink.
You know what?
It looks like he's just rocking boxes underneath those.
bryan callen
Probably.
brendan schaub
Those are not athletic undies.
bryan callen
Is he wearing a cup?
brendan schaub
Yes, you have to wear a cup.
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
I'm telling you, man, wait for that to get comfortable.
You can't base his fight skills off that Ben Henderson fight.
Could it be a worse matchup for the guy?
unidentified
Oh my god.
bryan callen
Well, also Ben Henderson is a monster!
brendan schaub
Ben Henderson's a 1%er.
bryan callen
I mean, yeah.
brendan schaub
I tell you what you don't want to do, get in the clinch with Brandon Thatch.
If I'm Gunnar Nelson...
bryan callen
Because he's kneeing you up?
brendan schaub
Muay Thai's his shit, my man.
bryan callen
Oh, Jesus.
brendan schaub
Thatch and Cowboy started Muay Thai frickin' in diapers.
unidentified
They were boys.
bryan callen
Are they buddies?
brendan schaub
Super buddies, yeah.
bryan callen
I love Cowboy.
Hey, I want to get Cowboy to come out to the show in Denver.
brendan schaub
Yeah, probably not, man, you know?
bryan callen
You came last time.
brendan schaub
Yeah, not this time.
bryan callen
You don't know anything.
That's a big commitment on the old leg.
brendan schaub
On the old leg?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Powerful Josh Ford does a lot of his ink.
Boy, they're both hesitant, right?
This is what happens when you get caught.
bryan callen
Oh, no!
unidentified
Oh, shit!
brendan schaub
Oh, shit!
Worst case scenario, full amount just blasted in the face.
He relaxed, didn't he?
Took a little bit of time off.
bryan callen
Oh, that was very interesting.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, not good.
And when you got Gunnar Nelson in half guard, couldn't be worse for Brandon Thatch right now.
bryan callen
Ouch.
Oh, boy.
Side control.
brendan schaub
And we're not talking about just a regular old black belt.
We're talking about a guy who's competed and won, I mean, some serious competitions in jiu-jitsu.
Gunnar Nelson is a phenom on the ground.
bryan callen
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
brendan schaub
He's in full amount on Brandon Thatch.
unidentified
Well...
brendan schaub
If someone said, hey, what's the worst case scenario for Brandon Thatch?
I'm like, well, I'd say mid to the first round.
He's punching the face.
bryan callen
Right now, what does Brandon Thatch do with his hands?
Is that what he's supposed to do?
brendan schaub
Well, what he can't do is grab around the body.
But you've got to realize...
unidentified
Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
Rear naked.
bryan callen
Oh, no.
unidentified
That's not good.
brendan schaub
See, I don't like the body lock.
bryan callen
You don't.
brendan schaub
Nope.
Hear me out here.
Joe disagrees.
If Rogan was here, we'd be talking about this.
But the body doesn't allow you to move.
You know what I'm saying?
You're not going to advance.
And also, you've got to remember, Thatch is rocked.
So this has given Thatch a little bit of opportunity to recover.
bryan callen
Look at this now.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
He's not going to do it with one hand.
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
Two hands.
unidentified
Oh, you got him.
Oh, man.
Wow!
brendan schaub
What a fight by Gunnar Nelson, son.
unidentified
Damn it.
Wow.
brendan schaub
Hey, remember that time I hyped up a guy for an hour and then he got his ass whooped?
Yeah, that just happened.
Hey, it happens.
unidentified
You know what, dude?
I don't trust you anymore.
brendan schaub
You shouldn't.
unidentified
I lost faith in you.
Bro, no, no, no.
brendan schaub
If a friend's fighting, never listen to me.
That's a monster, though.
unidentified
Gunnar Nelson was the underdog, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, barely.
unidentified
He was plus 160 or something like that?
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
unidentified
That's two in a row for Thatch.
brendan schaub
Those are tough matchups, man.
unidentified
Too many raves.
brendan schaub
Hopefully he's not raving anymore.
Hopefully he's not raving anymore.
bryan callen
Let's see what happened here.
Put his hands down.
He was looking.
unidentified
Boom!
Wow.
brendan schaub
Left hook, straight right, son.
bryan callen
Damn it.
unidentified
What are you doing?
brendan schaub
Put your hand up.
bryan callen
Oh boy.
He didn't think.
He wasn't thinking.
Momentary lapse of concentration.
brendan schaub
And then a lot of guys...
bryan callen
Why do you do this, Brennan?
You should never do this, right?
brendan schaub
Well, no.
A lot of guys who don't have a big jiu-jitsu base go to all fours.
bryan callen
Because that's what you're doing in wrestling.
brendan schaub
And stand up.
You go to all fours and you stand up.
But when you have a high-level grappler, he wants you to turn that way.
Because now that he's on your back, you've got trouble.
bryan callen
Now, he shouldn't have let him get this either.
brendan schaub
He should have been doing two-on-one on a glove.
He let that get around his neck and it was just all over it.
Again, man, if you're not...
Training jiu-jitsu a ton when you get in those situations.
bryan callen
You don't recognize it.
brendan schaub
So it's not second nature.
If you're down there going with high-level guys a lot, it's going to be second nature.
Alright, he has my back.
I might be a little rocked.
I've got to go two on one because I'm going to control two on one.
Two hands on one.
bryan callen
Here's where I'm confused.
If you know you're fighting a monster like Gunnar Nelson, why are you not rolling with high-level guys all the time?
brendan schaub
He probably is, especially if Elliot Marshall's his coach.
You're rolling with black belts.
But if it's a seven-week camp and Gunnar Nelson's been training for how long?
It's his language.
You know what I'm saying?
unidentified
Thank you.
bryan callen
Shit.
brendan schaub
That's a bummer, man.
bryan callen
It's just hard.
brendan schaub
Great fight, but a huge win by Gunnar.
bryan callen
No shame.
brendan schaub
Brandon has some shit to look at in the mirror, man.
That's a tough loss.
unidentified
Now, tonight, does he cry?
I mean, do you cry when you lose like that?
Probably.
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you don't want to talk to anyone?
Certain guys take it different.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Like Alistair over him, he's lost, and he'll tweet out like, ah, part of the game, and then you see him like...
unidentified
You seem gentle, so you seem like you would cry.
brendan schaub
Oh, I'm going to ball crying on the ground.
Thanks, bro.
bryan callen
Hold him.
Hold him, Bobby.
Hold him.
Hey, Bobby, watch your hands.
brendan schaub
Thanks, man.
Yeah, I don't deal with losses very well.
bryan callen
Dude, look at that great, that was a beautiful left.
Right on the chin.
brendan schaub
If you're in that range, why are your hands down and chin up?
You're talking about a high-level striker here.
I just don't think you respected his striking.
bryan callen
It looks like he stepped back to reset.
brendan schaub
He didn't step back, though.
Maybe he thought Gunnar was going to step back?
bryan callen
Yeah, that's what it looks like.
He misread something.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that's tough, man.
bryan callen
And you get in those habits when you spar sometimes, right?
brendan schaub
100%.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
100% you get in those bad habits.
bryan callen
Yep.
unidentified
Man.
bryan callen
Because you reset, your buddy's not going to hit you.
Now you're in a fight.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what's trouble, though.
Guess whose boy that is?
Connor.
You don't think that's a huge motivation boost?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Your boy who you went through this entire camp with, and then he just dominated the biggest fight of his career?
bryan callen
Amazing.
brendan schaub
Powerful champions, Ioana and Chris Weidman.
Tell you what, Ioana, my favorite girl fighter.
unidentified
I love her.
brendan schaub
Best striker in the world for women.
bryan callen
A killer.
brendan schaub
Did you say you're a killer?
bryan callen
No, I said a killer.
brendan schaub
Oh, Jesus.
bryan callen
Look at this.
Look at these guys.
All these guys.
Damn, Rafael, this onions looks just as big as...
unidentified
And he fights at 55. He's definitely not as big as...
bryan callen
He looks at...
brendan schaub
No, definitely not.
No, I disagree.
unidentified
This guy seems humble.
brendan schaub
Yeah, super humble, right?
unidentified
He did not celebrate at all.
bryan callen
They call him the Brian Callum.
He's like me.
brendan schaub
The Ryan Kelly UFC. Gunnar Nelson, aka the kid of the UFC. I might grow my beard pretty big.
bryan callen
I might grow a big beard.
brendan schaub
Have you ever had a big beard?
bryan callen
No, but I'm looking at these guys and I'm feeling like I need to.
brendan schaub
Bobby, have you ever had a big beard?
unidentified
I can't.
Look at me.
This is 22 years' growth right here.
It looks like ants attacking my mouth.
There's 15 hairs here.
And my pubes, they don't curl, it's straight.
brendan schaub
They go straight out?
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, straight out.
Like an urchin.
brendan schaub
Like an urchin.
unidentified
It's not because I'm athletic, it's because I'm scared.
It's constantly scared, so it sticks out like that, yeah.
brendan schaub
It's like a porcupine trying to protect that dick.
unidentified
You're welcome.
It's uni.
brendan schaub
UFC 200. How crazy is that?
When do we stop counting?
At what point do we stop counting?
unidentified
UFC 441. Well, you have to know the numbers.
I loved 296. You know what I mean?
Without numbers, how are you going to say it?
bryan callen
He looks good.
brendan schaub
I agree.
Yeah, I agree.
I guess there's so many shows.
What do you do, man?
There's like Fight Night, right?
There's UFC on Fox.
unidentified
You were just on JRE 671. That's right.
brendan schaub
That's right.
That's right.
bryan callen
Now see, the difference is this guy looks like he's not as disciplined with his hands.
brendan schaub
Jeremy Stevens is a knockout artist, and he...
Did he?
I don't know.
Did he not make weight?
unidentified
I don't think so.
brendan schaub
Ooh, that's an issue.
You know what?
You're right.
He didn't.
bryan callen
And what does that mean?
What happens?
brendan schaub
You get docked, I think, 30% or 20% of your fight purse.
bryan callen
30%?
brendan schaub
30% of your fight purse.
Or 20%.
bryan callen
If you win, does it count?
brendan schaub
Uh, yes.
It does count.
But the thing is, if there's one thing that pisses the UFC off more than having a shitty performance, it's not making weight.
They'll cut your ass for not making weight.
Anthony Johnson!
Anthony Johnson, he missed weight a bunch of times.
They cut his ass.
bryan callen
Damn!
brendan schaub
Dude, I'm telling you, if you don't make weight, man, there's nothing that pisses Dana White and Joe Silva off more.
Except just being a real shitty performer.
But if you don't make weight, man, good luck.
unidentified
Is it true that Connor had to lose or had to drop like 27 pounds?
brendan schaub
26 pounds coming in.
He looked rough.
unidentified
What happened to the Korean zombie?
He joined the Korean military.
He's out.
brendan schaub
He's out, man.
unidentified
He fought Jose Aldo.
I was there!
He lost.
brendan schaub
You want to talk about killer's role?
Hey, Brian, you want us to text you into the fight companion?
bryan callen
Sorry, but I'm just checking to make sure that I'm not getting any...
Oh, Bobby here.
brendan schaub
Yeah, no, Bobby's right here.
Yeah, no, we'll text you next time.
Could there be a bigger killer's role than Featherweight right now?
Look at that.
bryan callen
Good God.
brendan schaub
Look at that.
I'll tell you who's my dark horse.
Max Holloway.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
First of all, he went to decision with Conor.
Granted, Conor was hurt, but he has more confidence now.
Remember when he took up Swanson?
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
Max Holloway is a fucking monster.
bryan callen
45 is so stupid.
unidentified
And he's a young kid, still.
brendan schaub
Young, young Hawaiian.
The pride of the Hawaiians.
Because he's all Hawaiian.
bryan callen
Is he?
brendan schaub
Yeah, they don't call him a Howley.
Because Travis Brown, they call him Howley, right?
Because he's a white boy from Hawaii.
bryan callen
They call him Hoppa.
What's his nickname, Hoppa?
unidentified
Hoppa is half, right?
bryan callen
I think so.
Do we know anything more about the...
That situation?
brendan schaub
About him slapping his girl around?
unidentified
What ethnicity is that?
brendan schaub
Dime Piece.
unidentified
Oh, that's a dime piece.
bryan callen
It's a little weird.
brendan schaub
What island are you from?
Dime Piece Island?
bryan callen
You know what I'm a little confused about?
Why she didn't go to the cops?
brendan schaub
Because she said on Instagram what she said.
So all these are allegations, first of all.
There's been no charges pressed.
And she said the reason she came out on Instagram is because she doesn't want Travis to get arrested, lose his career, or get his kids taken away from him.
bryan callen
Okay.
brendan schaub
She said he's a good guy, he just whoops her ass.
Which to me would mean, you're not a good guy.
bryan callen
Well, at least she did that.
I mean, at least she had to get away and said...
brendan schaub
Hopefully she's safe now.
To me, it's crazy that the people with the comments like, oh, you hoe.
Like, why would you do this to him?
unidentified
Take it easy.
bryan callen
You don't know what it's like to get beat up by Travis Brown.
brendan schaub
I do.
I do.
And I didn't have the balls to show my bruises on Instagram.
And he beat the shit out of me.
I tell you what, she probably put up a better fight.
bryan callen
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
She probably put up a better fight.
At least she got to use weapons and shit.
bryan callen
Hey, you took him down twice.
brendan schaub
I took him down twice.
Almost broke my neck.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
What can you do, man?
He's a monster.
Can you imagine that guy hitting you?
bryan callen
This guy hits hard.
Holy shit.
brendan schaub
Can you imagine that guy hitting you?
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
And that girl was a dime piece.
bryan callen
Oh, she literally was.
brendan schaub
I use that term a lot, Bobby.
bryan callen
It's alright.
brendan schaub
Too much?
unidentified
I don't even know what it means.
Dime piece.
brendan schaub
Hot.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
brendan schaub
Hey, dime piece, you're a 10. Mm-hmm.
unidentified
He's a dime piece.
brendan schaub
No, see, I wouldn't call him a dime piece.
unidentified
Oh, damn it.
brendan schaub
Dennis Bermuda is, yes, that beautiful brown skin.
bryan callen
Here's my question also.
So if you're a Robbie Lawler and Rory McDonald...
brendan schaub
If you ask me what they're thinking...
bryan callen
No, I'm not going to ask you that, but I'm saying that you've got to stay warm, but the problem is you can't warm up too much because you don't know...
Do they know around when they're going to fight?
brendan schaub
They know exactly around.
bryan callen
They do?
brendan schaub
Especially for your main event.
If you're on the main card, you have a very good idea.
bryan callen
So you can time when you start, you know.
brendan schaub
You have an idea, because especially when Burt was in the back, I don't know how it's run now.
I haven't fought since Burt left.
So when Burt was in the back, you'd say, Burt, when I'm up, and he'd say, you're up around 8.30.
So you want to be ready around, you know, you start warming up around 7.45.
bryan callen
Right.
brendan schaub
8. Yeah.
unidentified
I have a dumb question.
Well, why do you do that?
brendan schaub
Warm up?
unidentified
Yeah, I would just, like, not move at all.
bryan callen
No.
brendan schaub
It's a bad idea.
unidentified
Why?
brendan schaub
You want your body ready.
unidentified
No, I don't want to move because I don't exert any kind of energy.
How your muscles work, you have to hit optimum contraction.
brendan schaub
Preach, girl.
unidentified
So you have to actually build your way up for it to optimally stretch or shorten.
Baby, if you ever talk to me like that again on a podcast, I will kill you, okay?
I was asking a fucking question, alright?
bryan callen
Bobby, take it easy, man!
unidentified
Alright?
I thought you said you were a wrestler.
How could you have wrestled competitively?
Because I didn't move.
I just kind of showed up, and I did it.
bryan callen
He scalloped on the map.
brendan schaub
He scalloped.
bryan callen
What?
brendan schaub
The yellow scallop.
bryan callen
Did you do sports?
unidentified
I was a swimmer for 15 years.
brendan schaub
Damn, 15 years.
unidentified
I swam for the Philippine national team before I came here, and then I swam gradually.
brendan schaub
Hey, Brian, the athletes are talking.
How about you go get us a snack?
unidentified
I guess you got yourself a new girlfriend, damn it.
bryan callen
Bitch.
So you were on the Philippine national team.
unidentified
Yeah, I was.
bryan callen
Holy mother of Lord.
brendan schaub
Wow.
unidentified
That's right.
That's impressive.
bryan callen
Do you know who I met recently and had dinner with?
It was Summer.
She's an Olympian.
unidentified
Summer Sanders.
bryan callen
Yes.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
Yes.
unidentified
She's great.
brendan schaub
Great story.
bryan callen
I said, you're armed.
I said...
unidentified
Phenomenal story.
I said, actually.
bryan callen
I knew it.
brendan schaub
I asked her, hey, do you swim?
unidentified
She said, yeah.
bryan callen
No, no, no.
You'd love it.
I said, this is so funny.
So her husband, I said...
First thing I said to her husband, I said, I go...
I go, he looked like he was in shape.
I go, you look like you're in shape, bro.
You work out?
And he's about my age.
And my buddy goes, he's been on three Olympic teams.
He's one of the greatest skiers of all time.
I went, okay.
And then I see her.
I don't know if she's married.
Literally, I swear to God, you know I am.
I go like this.
I go, you got some arms on you, man.
Your arms look good.
You look like you stay in shape.
Brian, she's one of the fucking greatest swimmers.
I won a gold.
Won two golds, I think.
unidentified
Yeah, she stayed in shape, too.
Makes sense.
Like Dara Torres.
Have you seen her body?
bryan callen
Dara, no.
unidentified
In her 40s, just amazing.
brendan schaub
The swimmers are big, though.
unidentified
Big girl.
brendan schaub
Yeah, we are.
You're biting off too much there, Cal.
bryan callen
Summer's not as big.
She's about 5'8", 5'9".
unidentified
Yeah, but the new age swimmers that you see now, especially Butterfly or...
brendan schaub
Missy Franklin, Lauren Lando, trans Missy Franklin.
She was 16 when I met her.
unidentified
Big girl.
Missy Franklin's a big, big girl.
Tall.
brendan schaub
And she's the Michael Phelps, the girls, yes.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
She was in college, and she's out now, and she's making millions of sponsors.
She was in college, I think, for a year or two at Cal.
Yeah.
bryan callen
Damn.
brendan schaub
Beast.
This is a great fight.
Really good fight.
bryan callen
That guy's doing steroids, right there.
brendan schaub
His corner men?
unidentified
Yep.
brendan schaub
First of all, his corner men should be a commercial on...
For TRT. For TRT and Balding.
Although, in the very back is a good buddy, Ryan Parsons, who is Jail Sonnen's coach, Dan Henderson's, the list goes on and on.
He was the head coach in Temecio for all those guys.
bryan callen
I mean, this is a beast.
brendan schaub
Super beast.
He was on, I think, a six or seven fight win streak, and then he lost to Lamas, but he's a monster.
I was telling him when he had six fights, you need to start squealing like a little baby pig for a title shot.
You won six in a row, son.
What are we doing?
unidentified
Yep.
bryan callen
Well, when is a guy named Donald Cerrone going to get his shot?
brendan schaub
Next.
unidentified
Thank you.
brendan schaub
He's guaranteed the next shot.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
But he wants to fight before that.
unidentified
I'm like, Donald, chill.
Who did he fight last?
Miles Jury, right?
brendan schaub
No, he fought Modessi.
unidentified
Oh, that's right.
bryan callen
He tweeted out, somebody said, you get nervous.
He was like, what?
He goes, every time.
brendan schaub
Of course he gets nervous.
bryan callen
But he looks like the kind of guy.
brendan schaub
Look at me.
bryan callen
He just looks so game.
He looks so game though.
brendan schaub
All of them do.
Look at Jeremy Stevens.
Wait till they show Jeremy Stevens.
He looks like he's having the time of his life.
Some guys are having the time of their lives.
They're nervous, but they're having the time of their lives.
Check out Southpaw official sponsor.
Speaking of Southpaw, 50 Cent is going to be on the Fire and the Kid this week.
bryan callen
Have you seen the movie?
Because I need to see it.
brendan schaub
I need to see it too.
They want us to go to the Open tomorrow.
bryan callen
Let's go see it.
brendan schaub
On Monday.
Can you go?
bryan callen
I can't see it.
brendan schaub
Well, it's the only premiere of the movie.
bryan callen
I'm reforming Monday.
brendan schaub
Okay.
bryan callen
As in singing a song with a band.
Have you done the goddamn Comedy Jam?
unidentified
No, they've asked me a thousand times.
brendan schaub
What song would you sing, Bobby?
unidentified
I said no.
brendan schaub
What song would you sing?
unidentified
I have no song.
bryan callen
I'm singing Mother by Danzig, and I'm not ready.
brendan schaub
Can you give us a sample?
unidentified
Mother, tell your children not to look my way.
brendan schaub
I'm not mad at that.
unidentified
Tell your children not to hear my words, what they mean, what they say, mother!
brendan schaub
I'll give you $500 if you know whose walkout song that is.
And I fought him.
bryan callen
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
$500 right now.
unidentified
First name.
brendan schaub
Well, that's going to give it away.
unidentified
Just say it.
brendan schaub
It's Gabriel Gonzaga.
unidentified
Oh, Gonzaga.
That's his walkout song?
brendan schaub
Mother!
Yeah, terrifying.
Terrifying.
bryan callen
And you beat him.
brendan schaub
I beat him, put on a boxing clinic, used my jab, used my reach that you always talk about.
unidentified
Damn.
bryan callen
Damn.
brendan schaub
We're not talking about shitty Gonzaga.
We're talking about good Gonzaga.
bryan callen
Well, he's a beast.
brendan schaub
That was four, five years ago?
unidentified
That's right after he beat Krokop, right?
You fought him after?
brendan schaub
I beat Krokop.
No, I beat Gonzaga and then I fought Krokop.
I fought Gonzaga after he lost to Junior Dos Santos.
unidentified
Here we go, guys.
Here we go.
Mother!
brendan schaub
Look at Jeremy Stevens.
bryan callen
Tell your children not to look my way.
brendan schaub
I could do backup vocals if you want.
bryan callen
Yeah, you could, and I'd like you to.
unidentified
Who's supposed to win here?
bryan callen
Actually, I want you to come, because maybe I'll have you come up there.
unidentified
Sweetie, who's supposed to win here?
brendan schaub
Bermudez is the favorite, but it's close.
I think Bermudez is a pretty heavily favorite.
We're talking MMA. Mother!
I don't want to win.
bryan callen
Mother!
Can you keep him in the dark for life?
unidentified
Can you hide him from the waiting world?
Oh!
brendan schaub
Big right hand and someone's bleeding and it's Jeremy Stephens.
That looked like he got it from a headbutt.
He trains at Alliance in San Diego.
He's a beast.
Super hard hitter.
Crazy knockout.
bryan callen
That uppercut.
Was that a left or a right uppercut, Brennan?
brendan schaub
Uh, looked like a right.
And now...
unidentified
Whoa!
brendan schaub
Ooh, we got ourselves a real fight.
bryan callen
Got a dogfight here.
It's what I call a dogfight, Brennan.
brendan schaub
You say dogfight, I say cockfight.
bryan callen
Cockfight, dogfight.
brendan schaub
You know what kind of fight it is.
bryan callen
I'm so glad I don't have to do this for a living.
It's just so scary.
I can't believe you've done this for eight years.
I'm going to have to force your retirement.
I can't have it.
brendan schaub
You're going to force me to retire?
bryan callen
I can't have it.
I just can't.
I can't have you in there.
brendan schaub
I do have the greatest job in the world now doing podcasting.
bryan callen
I can't have you doing this shit.
brendan schaub
Did anyone see the video of Rogan that he Instagrammed out training with Mark Della Grotti hitting mitts?
unidentified
Yes.
brendan schaub
Did you see him kick?
bryan callen
Yes.
brendan schaub
Bobby, have you seen Joe Rogan kick?
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
His kicks are ridiculous.
unidentified
Yes.
I actually think I've seen that video.
brendan schaub
It's on some Aldo shit.
Like, he was kicking.
I texted him.
I was like, Jesus Christ, man.
Relax on the kicks, brother.
unidentified
It's crazy.
bryan callen
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
His hips are so loose.
Della Grotti can see.
bryan callen
He's 48 kicking like that.
brendan schaub
And he can do both sides.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Pretty impressive.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
How about this fight, though?
Silence.
Everyone's thinking about Robin's kicks.
Joe's been throwing those kicks since he was 14. We did taekwondo at a high level.
He's been throwing those kicks since he was 14. I would pay money to have Joe kick you in the leg.
bryan callen
No, I don't want that.
brendan schaub
No, I want you to have a kickoff.
Ugh.
unidentified
2015 kickoff!
brendan schaub
Brian Kellen, Joe Rogan, it's a kickoff.
What do you think is your hardest kick?
Obviously Rogan's is that kick.
bryan callen
Probably a wheel kick because I knocked a lot of guys out with it.
They weren't athletes.
Oh, here we go.
brendan schaub
Here it is.
Look at Joe Rogan up here on the screen kicking like a...
unidentified
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Now watch.
What's impressive is he can switch.
unidentified
Watch.
brendan schaub
Watch Della Grotti, who's a world-class coach.
One of the best in the business.
Look.
Watch this.
Oof.
unidentified
Boom!
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Left and right.
That's rare, man.
bryan callen
He's a beast.
brendan schaub
Brian, you scared?
unidentified
Yeah?
Yeah.
brendan schaub
You think they'd ever have a kickoff, Jamie?
bryan callen
Never.
brendan schaub
Never.
unidentified
Break them.
brendan schaub
Well, Brian said he knocked a lot of guys out with spinning kick.
I call bullshit.
Brian's in the bathroom right now, so we're just gonna...
I call bullshit.
Rogan actually competed.
Damn!
See, I think that eye opened up from a headbutt.
unidentified
Because I didn't see anything land before that.
brendan schaub
No, he's trying to set up a head-arm choke here, trying to choke.
unidentified
When do you stop it, though?
If it runs into the eye, I just want to stop it.
Usually, if it's under the eye, you continue no matter how big the...
Well, it depends on what the doctor thinks.
But if it's over the eye, it can run into it.
brendan schaub
It's a tough spot.
Up there, it's not too back.
It's going to drop down.
It's not going to run into the eye.
But when it starts running into the eye...
Yeah, you're in trouble.
A lot of times, too, if it's on Fox and there's a lot of blood, you're playing a dangerous game.
Fox doesn't want all that blood.
Yeah, think about it.
Talking about the regular folk.
unidentified
Ooh!
brendan schaub
Ooh!
Tell you what, Dennis got rocked and really turned it on here.
He just looked at the clock.
I don't like when they look at the clock.
It's a bad sign.
unidentified
It's been actually very good, these fights.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal fights!
unidentified
Yeah.
Oh!
brendan schaub
Exactly what the UFC needed.
Oh, snaps!
unidentified
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, Joe Silva and Dana White doing this matchmaking, they knew exactly what they were doing.
Every single fight that they put on this card brings the heat.
That's exactly what you need.
Especially when you got all eyes on Conor McGregor.
So people are tuning in for the first time, I think, just to see what this Conor McGregor fella's about.
So you got the Reebok kits, you got these monsters slanging the gloves.
That's exactly what they needed.
Good for them.
Great, grand, wonderful.
You got ten Octagon girls just in case.
bryan callen
This is a bloodbath.
brendan schaub
Callan, who's your favorite rock gun girl?
Do you guys have a favorite?
bryan callen
The one, I don't know her name.
brendan schaub
Brittany Palmer?
bryan callen
Nope.
brendan schaub
Ariadne?
bryan callen
Nope.
There's another one.
brendan schaub
Is she American?
bryan callen
She's on this car.
brendan schaub
Is she American?
bryan callen
I think so.
Brunette with beautiful body.
brendan schaub
Well, when you say beautiful body, you illustrated Big Jugs.
bryan callen
I did, I guess.
But she's got long legs.
She looks like she has no work on her.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you who's the sleeper.
Is that Carly Baker from England?
Go ahead and look her up.
Carly Baker brings the heat.
We've got a legit producer.
James is going to bring it up for you.
Carly Baker brings the heat.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
She could make me a crumpet any time.
Go ahead and look at her, Phil.
Soak that in.
I want you guys to soak that in.
bryan callen
I'm not mad at that at all.
brendan schaub
And in person, she is a smoke show spectacular 2000. Definitely not mad at her at all.
How could you be?
Why would you be, Brian?
bryan callen
Oh, Lord have mercy on me.
brendan schaub
Yes.
Lock me up.
Throw away the key.
bryan callen
Now, let me see.
There's another one I want to...
brendan schaub
Well, if you don't know her name, it's hard to look up, isn't it?
bryan callen
Well, but the UFC girls.
brendan schaub
Well, no, Brian.
That's fucked up.
bryan callen
I just don't like when they do dumb poses like that.
Oh, I know.
brendan schaub
I can't stand when they stand provocative like that in the post pictures.
That's so lame.
Said the only gay guy in the room.
bryan callen
Oh, Christ.
Such a rough sport.
Oh, there was a headbutt.
You're right.
There was a headbutt.
brendan schaub
For sure a headbutt, yeah.
bryan callen
Oh, she's got a set of knockers on her, too.
brendan schaub
Hey, bro.
Take it easy, man.
Nice girl, too.
Very nice.
bryan callen
Sorry.
Is Brittany Palmer there?
brendan schaub
Is Brittany Palmer there tonight?
Or is she taking self-defense classes?
Too much?
Is that too much?
Too much?
Silence in the room?
bryan callen
I didn't get it until this is now.
It's funny.
By the way, Mr. Bermudez has not slowed down.
He's got some good cardio.
brendan schaub
He's not slowed down at all.
He's a phenomenal coach.
bryan callen
He hurt his leg.
brendan schaub
He hurt his leg bad.
It might be a knee.
Looks like it's buckling a little.
He still threw it.
Ooh, it might have been Shin on Shin.
Sometimes that'll take a little while.
Ooh, Stevens recognizes it.
unidentified
He sees it now, yeah.
brendan schaub
Ooh, Trouble.
Trouble in Little China.
Who remembers that movie?
bryan callen
A lot of places you're vulnerable.
He's got Jesus on his side, which I didn't realize, so I'm going with Steven.
brendan schaub
Why, because of his tattoo?
bryan callen
He's got Holy Ghost power.
brendan schaub
First of all, Jesus on both sides.
unidentified
Oh.
Oh, fuck.
Oh.
bryan callen
Dennis Bermudez is one tough son of a bitch.
brendan schaub
Wow.
unidentified
Jesus.
He just sprung out.
brendan schaub
He's in trouble.
He's in big trouble.
unidentified
He is.
brendan schaub
If he lands takedown, he's going to be fine.
Dang, what?
Great fight.
I can't remember the last time a card was this good.
bryan callen
It's crazy.
brendan schaub
I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a card.
unidentified
Look at the little Asian people down there.
brendan schaub
Powerful Joe Rogan, the bottom right there.
There's some empty seats in there.
bryan callen
That's interesting, right?
brendan schaub
Well, maybe they're grabbing snacks, Brian.
bryan callen
Could be grabbing snacks, Brian.
brendan schaub
This is the first fight I felt like the entire world is watching.
bryan callen
By the way, that's the third.
That knee is not doing well there.
brendan schaub
I don't know if it's knee or shin.
He's definitely messed up, though.
He's definitely in trouble.
bryan callen
Three-round fight, right?
Yes.
Ouch, you can see it.
brendan schaub
He's in trouble.
And Jeremy Stevens knows it, and he keeps kicking there.
Jeremy Stevens should do an inside kick.
Because it's there, because he's not moving it.
You're not mad at the way those...
Oh, nice.
You're not mad at his tight shorts, Brian.
Dennis fills those things out.
bryan callen
I like those shorts.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
Guess what?
brendan schaub
His leg's messed up.
He's not knocked down.
His leg's going out on him.
Yeah, his leg is in some serious trouble.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
Man, that was a nice...
brendan schaub
Good.
unidentified
Googly Mowgli.
bryan callen
Googly Mowgli.
unidentified
Oh, great uppercut.
bryan callen
Man, he can take a shot.
Are you kidding me?
brendan schaub
It's his leg, man.
So it's looking worse than it is, but he can't put weight on it.
So when he gets hit, he's off balance.
He's falling down.
unidentified
Oh!
Very nice.
brendan schaub
This is Sparta!
That's what kind of kick that was, son.
bryan callen
Damn!
brendan schaub
Good lord.
bryan callen
This is a violent, violent situation.
Bobby, look at the blood.
unidentified
I know.
bryan callen
Guess what?
Stephens is hurt.
How about that?
Now Stephens is hurt.
Bermuda's is a beast!
brendan schaub
Hey, good luck giving Fight of the Night out performance of the night with all these fights tonight.
unidentified
You know what that ring smells like?
Serena Williams.
brendan schaub
Oh, that's fucked up.
bryan callen
Bobby!
brendan schaub
Curdled blood!
Curdled blood.
Oh, man.
bryan callen
So you're saying Serena smells like the octagon?
unidentified
Yeah.
You're awful.
Baby, come on.
Bobby.
What?
It's not racism.
It's nothing.
It's just an observation.
brendan schaub
Yeah, like some people smell like shit.
I'm with you, brother.
Oh, you were giving me a high five?
bryan callen
Bobby, I feel like as a Korean, you can kind of say anything.
I thought that was a karate chop.
brendan schaub
I thought that was a karate chop.
unidentified
Is that racist?
brendan schaub
Is that racist?
unidentified
A little bit, yeah.
Well, I thought it was giving you a high five, and I thought you karate chop.
brendan schaub
That's assault, brother.
Oh, good lord!
bryan callen
Oh boy.
Dude.
unidentified
This is an amazing fight.
brendan schaub
Amazing fight.
This is the best fight we've seen tonight, I think.
bryan callen
100%.
100%.
And Brennan, you're not wrong in saying this guy should be calling.
This guy is a huge threat.
He's as good as anybody I've seen in the 45-pound division.
brendan schaub
Bermudez?
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Hell yeah.
Him and Connor would go at it.
bryan callen
Oh my God.
Well, the thing is, this guy's so durable.
brendan schaub
Dude, this weight class, man, I'm telling you, he can't sleep on anyone.
bryan callen
No.
brendan schaub
He's doing this on one leg.
You can see he can't really push off on this takedown.
Look at his meathead corner.
Look at him.
There's the Octagon girls.
Every 12 of them.
Not cheap to fly them in.
It is UFC Fight Week, though.
bryan callen
It is.
It's important.
unidentified
Another fight tomorrow, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, there is.
The Ultimate Fighter finale.
Jake Ehrenberger, Steven Wonderboy Thompson, your main event.
bryan callen
These boys are frickin' durable.
Durable.
brendan schaub
These boys are working!
I'll tell you the best, the most excited fight I'm looking forward to on tomorrow's card is Michelle Watterson.
If anyone knows who Michelle Watterson is, it's her first fight in UFC. She was fighting Invicta at 115. She's a little beast.
She's awesome.
Jackson member.
unidentified
Did you guys watch the cyborg or the Invicta fights?
brendan schaub
I did see cyborg.
She knocked that girl out in like 40 seconds and called Rhonda out.
But you know what she did now?
She called Misha Tate out and said, meet me at 140. Yeah, I think that's what's going to happen.
Just make 135 and shut the fuck up.
unidentified
How can you call out a champion and not go down to her weight group?
brendan schaub
Well, she probably can't go down to 35. Well, then you can't call her out.
Then you can't call her out.
Then guess what?
It's not for you.
Move on.
bryan callen
Well, now, as a business, you say, fight me a catchweight.
Lure them into your trap.
unidentified
That wouldn't make sense for Rhonda because it's like at no...
brendan schaub
There's no trap for Rhonda.
unidentified
Guys, guys.
brendan schaub
She's the king or queen, I should say.
bryan callen
Bobby shuts us up, Bob.
unidentified
Guys, guys.
bryan callen
This fight is unbelievable.
brendan schaub
Unbelievable.
bryan callen
And I don't understand how...
I really don't understand.
I'm not being silly.
I don't understand how you can take those kind of shots and keep going.
I don't.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
I mean, especially Steven.
Shot him on a guy who was knocking dudes out at 55 and then cut down to 45 with the same power.
Tell you what, man, his leg is jacked up.
bryan callen
Look at Bermudez.
unidentified
What's he on?
bryan callen
Is he getting blood doped right now as we speak?
Because he's just not tired at all.
unidentified
Whoa, easy, easy.
bryan callen
I don't need to say it.
unidentified
Hey, hey, hey.
brendan schaub
Easy on the accusations, my man.
He's passed every drug test.
bryan callen
No, I believe it.
I'm just saying.
brendan schaub
We can't say drug dope because he's in the corner, you asshole.
bryan callen
Ow, do you see?
There it is.
There's that kick.
unidentified
Ooh.
brendan schaub
Ooh, you know what?
Yeah, he got dropped there.
unidentified
Boom!
bryan callen
That's right on the fucking shin.
On the chin.
unidentified
It's like a neck one almost.
Oh, there he is!
brendan schaub
Mike Tyson with the terrible shirt!
bryan callen
By the way, you're probably the hardest hitter ever.
brendan schaub
He's up there.
unidentified
It's a great fight.
brendan schaub
He's up there.
People say George Foreman, but Mike Tyson's up there.
bryan callen
I'll go with Tyson.
brendan schaub
No.
Actually, they broke it down scientifically, and George Foreman's number one.
bryan callen
Is that right?
brendan schaub
Hardest hitter.
Ask your boy.
Ask your boy, John.
bryan callen
John Brankes?
brendan schaub
John Brankes.
bryan callen
Here we go, boys.
Here we go, here we go, here we go.
This is the fight of the night so far.
brendan schaub
By far.
Hopefully these next ones are...
bryan callen
Look at this.
Bringing his leg around.
brendan schaub
Bringing his leg around.
bryan callen
Bermudez is a rough fuck.
Bobby, I want you to take your fighting more seriously after this.
brendan schaub
Bobby, I want you to start training.
We're going to start training you to fight in the 125. How much do you weigh, Bobby?
unidentified
170. 170. Oh my god!
bryan callen
These knees!
Dude!
brendan schaub
They need to stop it.
They need to stop it.
bryan callen
Dude!
Dude!
unidentified
I can't believe it.
Wow!
brendan schaub
Look at him!
bryan callen
I told you!
brendan schaub
What a big fight!
bryan callen
I told you!
brendan schaub
What a huge win for Jeremy Stevens!
bryan callen
Holy shit!
unidentified
Wow.
Oh no.
bryan callen
Holy shit!
brendan schaub
Good lord.
Just spit and blow.
Holy shit.
unidentified
Mike Tyson.
Wow.
brendan schaub
What a freaking fight!
bryan callen
Damn, and there's Tyson.
brendan schaub
How does that not fight him?
bryan callen
That's the highlight of his life right there.
In front of Tyson!
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
That's amazing.
bryan callen
Amazing.
brendan schaub
Damn, he is crunk, too.
bryan callen
What an amazing performance.
brendan schaub
You know they tell you if you jump on the octagon or if you jump out of it, you're going to get fined?
bryan callen
What an amazing performance.
brendan schaub
But no one ever gets fined, really.
bryan callen
No, you can't fin him.
unidentified
He just got excited.
brendan schaub
I jumped on it in Toronto, and they didn't do anything.
bryan callen
He got so excited.
brendan schaub
Well, yeah, everyone gets excited.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
It's over.
bryan callen
How do you time that?
unidentified
Oh, my lord.
bryan callen
You know, I'm practicing knees from now on.
brendan schaub
Holy smokes.
unidentified
You're not making it.
bryan callen
You use it at the end of the fight.
brendan schaub
You're not thinking about it.
Way too many shots.
unidentified
A whole bunch of knees tonight, right?
What a beautiful move.
brendan schaub
Look at this corner, man.
Whistling out.
Look at him.
Yeah!
Late reaction.
Wow.
bryan callen
Dude, that's his thing, by the way.
Stevens is a striker first, and then a wrestler.
brendan schaub
He's a knockout artist, yeah.
He knocks dudes out.
Dennis' background is boxing, but he does it all.
That was a phenomenal fight.
unidentified
Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom.
bryan callen
Aw, Bobby, I'm gonna help you.
I gotta help Bobby.
Hold on.
brendan schaub
Help him.
bryan callen
I'm gonna pull your pants down.
brendan schaub
Dang, poor Dennis.
I hate seeing these guys lose, man.
bryan callen
It's so tough.
brendan schaub
Jeremy is.
bryan callen
What a feeling.
Look at the blood!
Look at the blood!
brendan schaub
He did the hump to this camera.
bryan callen
What a beast!
unidentified
Wow.
bryan callen
He's a lot bigger than fucking Bermudez, dude.
brendan schaub
Well, he used to fight.
He's a big 55er, man.
bryan callen
He's a giant.
brendan schaub
Knockout artist, straight up.
bryan callen
Head is as big as Joe Rogan's, which is saying a lot.
brendan schaub
Wow, what a fight, man.
Powerful Joe Rogan breaking it down here.
unidentified
Because this was just one of the best time meetings you're ever going to see.
brendan schaub
That was...
unidentified
Julie was coming in for the takedown, and you just landed this picture-proving...
Boom!
Dude.
And tell me how this feels.
Guys, if you guys got a good right here, and you lean on that front foot, I'm going to head kick you, I'm going to knee you, I'm going to uppercut you, I'm going to try to knock you the fuck out.
That's what happens, baby.
Hey!
Oof.
Hey, I love America.
I'm from here, but these freaking Dublin fans are insane!
Like this!
This is a huge, huge win for you, Jeremy.
Coming off two losses...
brendan schaub
Biggest win of his career.
unidentified
What are your thoughts on how you fit in with the rest of this division?
The last two losses were close decisions.
I went back, it's just my mentality.
I had to go back and think about the old school fights where I knew 24-11, slot fights.
brendan schaub
He changed his career and went down to Alliance and started training in San Diego with all those boys.
That dude on the back, right?
I forget his name, but he's a wrestling coach at Reign.
He's one of the best wrestlers.
I mean, he's on the Olympic team.
The small white guy on the right, there he is.
See him?
Phenomenal coach.
Yeah, crazy coach.
unidentified
What a win, man.
brendan schaub
What a great fight.
bryan callen
505, where's that?
brendan schaub
5-0-5?
5-0-5.
5-0-5.
Why does it sound like Albuquerque?
unidentified
Boss.
brendan schaub
Albuquerque?
Booyah, Brian Count.
Boss in the Hall of Fame, obviously.
bryan callen
Albuquerque.
brendan schaub
Albuquerque?
I'm surprised he never went down to Jackson's if that's where he's at, huh?
bryan callen
What a beautiful performance that was.
That was brutal.
unidentified
Was that fight of the night so far?
brendan schaub
By far.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
By far.
You could go Fight of the Night, because now they don't do Fight of the Night, they do Performance of the Night, right?
So you could go Performance of the Night, Knockout of the Night.
I mean, that was ridiculous.
unidentified
How much do you get for Performance of the Night versus, like, Submission of the Night?
brendan schaub
They're all the same now, so it's all just, they give out, I think, three Performance of the Night.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
So no more specifics?
brendan schaub
No, no more specifics.
But you can win more than one.
I think.
I forget the exact breakdown, but it's all Performance of the Night.
And that's definitely performance of the night.
Boom!
unidentified
Yikes.
brendan schaub
Batch got this title shot by beating the other two four horsemen, or four horsewomen, and then the only one left to fight was Marina, and she just got completely annihilated in Invicta in like 40 seconds.
bryan callen
What's that?
brendan schaub
You want me to re-say it?
Because you're not paying attention.
bryan callen
I'm watching.
I love these promos.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
Well, I'm glad someone gets into them.
unidentified
What's your call in this fight?
brendan schaub
Maybe put your headset on, right?
Maybe put your headset on.
bryan callen
What's your call in this fight?
I like asking you questions like this.
She doesn't have the skill set, does she?
brendan schaub
You're so disappointing.
You see how she's holding four and she went to one, right?
So she's beat two of the four horsewomen.
And then Marina was the fourth that finished off.
She just got dominated Invicta.
She got knocked down in like 40 seconds, some shit.
Yikes.
So...
Rhonda's entourage, really, it's very similar to the entourage, right?
Like, she's Vinny Chase, and then the rest are Turtle, and so it's tough.
bryan callen
Brendan, please don't say Turtle.
unidentified
Why?
brendan schaub
I love Turtle.
I'm just saying that.
It's true.
Rhonda's a superstar.
unidentified
It worked out for Turtle.
He made the most money.
brendan schaub
Yeah, Turtle's ballin'.
You never know.
Look at that card.
You got Struve, Noguera, Shogun, Little Nog.
Little Nog and Big Nog are on that card.
Hey, fellas!
Hey, fellas!
bryan callen
Yeah, guys, you gotta stop.
unidentified
Guys!
brendan schaub
Good.
bryan callen
They're still fighting.
brendan schaub
God.
unidentified
You fought Big Nog, right?
brendan schaub
I did.
bryan callen
Guys, she knows her shit.
brendan schaub
She does know her shit.
unidentified
Well, just with Nogueras, I've been around forever.
brendan schaub
They are legends.
bryan callen
Well, as an athlete, I guess you follow these things.
Look, she's so, that intensity.
unidentified
Wait, wait, wait.
brendan schaub
Hold on, hold on.
Do you say as an athlete, she follows these things?
So, if you're an athlete, you know mixed martial arts?
bryan callen
I don't know.
I guess she has more of an appreciation.
brendan schaub
I guess she's a fan, too.
bryan callen
Look at Rhonda.
Look at the insanity.
How do you get that intensity?
How do you get that cruel, that need to just destroy?
Goddamn.
brendan schaub
You're just now seeing this?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
You've never seen these highlights before?
They play these every day.
bryan callen
I know.
But I just don't get over it.
Look at her.
Beast.
brendan schaub
No competition.
She's by far, hands down, the best female fighter ever.
Not even close.
bryan callen
I'm a pretty good female fighter.
brendan schaub
She would beat you in under 30 seconds.
Not even close.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
In anything.
Fighting related.
unidentified
Pound for pound, Joanna or her?
bryan callen
Punching and kicking.
brendan schaub
Punching and kicking.
She would dominate you.
Pound for pound.
I think Joanna's a better striker than Ronda.
Because she's like a six-time Muay Thai world champion.
So that's her background.
Now if they were to fight...
Let's say Johanna, they did some super fight at catchweight, Rhonda would dominate her.
She would toss it on her face.
bryan callen
Yeah, just grab her and throw her in the air.
brendan schaub
Rhonda's jiu-jitsu is some of the best in the world.
unidentified
You know what's crazy though?
Chris Cyborg has actually been in those lion fights.
She's been beat up by a lot of Muay Thai girls.
brendan schaub
Yeah, she got stopped by one of the top Muay Thai girls.
bryan callen
Oh, Cyborg?
Yeah, I heard about that.
She got beat up by one of them.
brendan schaub
Yeah, that was a while ago.
bryan callen
But again, it's such a different thing, right?
brendan schaub
It is.
unidentified
Is this guy fighting right now?
Bobby.
bryan callen
Bobby.
unidentified
What, is he fighting?
bryan callen
Bobby, that's a woman.
unidentified
Oh, sorry.
Come on.
Ronda Rousey's fighting.
Oh, that's great.
brendan schaub
That's great.
unidentified
I'm looking forward to it.
bryan callen
Is this Lawler?
Is this Lawler?
brendan schaub
Lawler, yeah.
bryan callen
Alright, I can barely take this right now.
You're about to see fighting at its highest level.
unidentified
Is this the last one?
Brian, that last fight was fighting at its highest level.
bryan callen
Watch your P's and Q's!
But you're watching two...
brendan schaub
You're watching the two best welterweights in the world.
bryan callen
That's right.
Please include Carlos Conant as right up there with them all.
brendan schaub
He has some work to do.
bryan callen
I think Carlos Conant might be the best fighter.
I think he beats anybody.
unidentified
I love Carlos Condit.
He's a very talented fighter.
In terms of technicalities, he's so precise.
brendan schaub
Very talented fighter.
bryan callen
Incredible.
Is this getting good buzz?
brendan schaub
Well, it comes out July 24th, Brian.
unidentified
It's not as good as The Warrior.
bryan callen
Well, it's called Warrior, but you're right.
brendan schaub
Bro, you know what I saw last night?
The Minions movie.
unidentified
Was it good?
brendan schaub
I fell asleep and walked out.
It was terrible.
Well, no, no.
I love Pixar movies.
I love those cartoon movies.
However, the Minions are cool when you see them in clips, right?
When Despicable Me, they're funny.
An entire movie of that?
unidentified
Too much.
bryan callen
I agree with you.
brendan schaub
Way too much.
bryan callen
Can I be honest with you?
My wife said, come to the movies with me and the kids.
And I go, what is it?
It's Minions.
And she went like this.
Little yellow people?
And I went, I can't do it.
brendan schaub
Hey, little...
bryan callen
I can't do it.
brendan schaub
Little yellow people for an hour and a half, though.
bryan callen
Nah, I can't do it.
brendan schaub
Like, in Despicable Me, they're dope.
In Despicable Me, they're funny.
Now, forward that 40 minutes of pure yellow, guys, and it gets very old.
bryan callen
Now, Brendan Schraub, you and I have...
unidentified
This sounds so racist.
brendan schaub
I didn't mean yellow guys.
unidentified
God damn it.
I mean, it's like, I'm right here, dude.
brendan schaub
Come on, bro.
bryan callen
Bobby, he just...
unidentified
I mean, it's rude.
bryan callen
These are shorter and yellower.
unidentified
These are animated characters, yeah.
bryan callen
Yeah, and you are an animated character, but still.
unidentified
Okay.
bryan callen
If there was a movie about a lot of you, I'd watch it.
unidentified
Thank you.
bryan callen
Sam Tripoli's joke about losing Bobby, he lost Bobby at the Korean Day Parade.
And he goes, you ever try to look for a Korean in a Korean parade?
It's like looking for a needle in a needle stack.
unidentified
That was a fun day, though.
brendan schaub
Yeah?
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
Bobby, when are you going to come on The Fighter and the Kid would need you?
unidentified
What is that?
bryan callen
Well, it's their podcast.
unidentified
Yeah, well, you don't ask me.
Whenever you ask me, I show up.
bryan callen
I'm asking you right now.
unidentified
Well, then I'm going to be there.
When is it?
brendan schaub
Bro, real quick, look at these graphics right now.
unidentified
He doesn't want me.
Look.
brendan schaub
No, no, you're in 100%.
unidentified
Aww.
brendan schaub
You're in 100%.
We're friends now, man.
bryan callen
He's taking us back to the fight.
brendan schaub
Look at this graphic, the new UFC graphic, man.
It's pretty dope going to Octagon.
bryan callen
Not mad at it.
brendan schaub
Way cleaner, right?
unidentified
I think you can see that in the arena, like basketball games?
bryan callen
Yes.
unidentified
Ooh, nice.
bryan callen
I don't know, but I'm going to see it.
brendan schaub
I don't know either.
No, you can't, because you see the glare off the side of the pillars, so they can see it.
But I don't like how they're doing a mashup of the final two fights.
They should do Rory and Lawler, and then when the other two come out, why are we doing a mashup?
bryan callen
I'll tell you why I want Conor McGregor to win and why I'm so nervous he won't, is that I don't want this train to stop.
I don't want this movie to stop.
brendan schaub
I love Chad Mendes.
He's one of the best.
He's the best guys in the world.
bryan callen
He's amazing.
brendan schaub
But I want this hype train of Conor McGregor to just keep on keeping up.
bryan callen
I don't want to see what he does when he loses.
It's going to be embarrassing and I'll be bummed.
brendan schaub
Everything's going to be rough.
bryan callen
I'm loving this show.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what though.
That new UFC layout is freaking dope.
That was sweet, man.
Look at that arena.
Dana White said this is the craziest arena fight ever he's ever seen.
As far as fans, everything.
What were you going to say, Jamie?
jamie vernon
The Jumbotron in the middle, I feel like it's not usually above the ring.
unidentified
I've been there a few times, I feel like it's only...
jamie vernon
Maybe recently they've had it there, but they always had it, like, you had to look far away, like, off in the distance to see the screens.
bryan callen
Look at the 70s, look at the welterweight division.
By the way, look at the welterweight division.
brendan schaub
Dude, every division, the top five, good God.
bryan callen
45, and yeah, it's just a murderous row.
It's so ridiculous.
Johnny Hendrix is a bad beard.
Johnny Hendricks looks like an accountant.
He's one of the baddest guys from the planet.
brendan schaub
You're not feeling his beard?
bryan callen
If he showed up and he was like, I'm your accountant, I'd be like, you look like a stocky accountant.
Cool.
Meanwhile, he's one of the baddest guys.
unidentified
What do you call this part of the face?
bryan callen
That's called the bullseye for me when I kill people.
brendan schaub
Oh, okay.
unidentified
Look at Rogan's bullseye.
bryan callen
Yeah, Joe's got...
brendan schaub
He has muscles.
He has muscles.
He has muscles on muscles.
bryan callen
Look at how intense Joe is.
unidentified
He's so intense.
bryan callen
Look at his mouth.
brendan schaub
Tell you what, though.
Best hype man in the game.
bryan callen
By the way, I'll make a call right now.
As far as a sports commentator, one of the best ever.
As far as how much he knows his game.
brendan schaub
Knowledge, yeah.
And training, knowledge, and many fights.
He's been in the game in the very beginning.
bryan callen
Joe's a very smart guy, but his secret is his intensity over a long period of time.
He's got the craziest discipline and work ethic.
brendan schaub
Like, he was telling us he went to frickin' like Chuck E. Cheese or something with his kid and was playing one of those pop-up games and he realized the high score is 500, so he sat there for an hour until he got 500. Like, bro, that's an issue.
bryan callen
It hurt his shoulder.
unidentified
He gives good life advice.
I was like depressed like a month ago and he gave me really good life advice.
brendan schaub
What did he say?
unidentified
He says, just look at life as a movie, like you're in a movie.
brendan schaub
And you want someone to watch your movie?
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
I love that advice.
He said that to me once.
brendan schaub
See, that's what I say.
unidentified
Oh, I like that, too.
I'm going to write that down.
Thank you.
bryan callen
He said that to me once.
He said, you have to act like you're the star of your own movie.
unidentified
That's what he said, yeah, yeah.
And it really helped me out.
I said, thank you, Joe.
bryan callen
Hey, Bobby.
I said this to him.
You're one of the funniest fucking people ever, and you have greatness in you as a comic.
And I've said that to you before, and very few people can do what you do, so you should never be depressed about that.
You have the ability to be one of the greatest comics ever.
Period.
brendan schaub
Boom.
unidentified
Boom, Bobby.
bryan callen
And I've said that to you before, and I've said that to you publicly, but I've said that to you privately.
unidentified
Thank you.
bryan callen
And I've said it among hundreds of thousands of people.
brendan schaub
So I don't want to hear your bullshit.
bryan callen
All you have to do is, when you feel depressed, is start writing, because you're that good.
brendan schaub
Will you talk about why you were down, Bobby?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
brendan schaub
Will you talk about why you were down?
Was it just things, just a clusterfuck?
unidentified
No, I just go through, it's usually when people think I'm other people, then I get really depressed.
brendan schaub
Like Jackie Chan?
unidentified
Well, no.
They'll go, hey, I love you on The Hangover.
And then I'll go, that's not me.
And they'll go, yeah, you are.
And I'll go, no, that's not me.
And they'll try to convince me that I'm him.
Or they'll go, I love you on Heroes, or I love you on Grey's Anatomy and stuff.
I go, that's a girl and stuff.
That's a girl.
brendan schaub
I know, man.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
bobby lee
Do you get people think you're somebody else?
brendan schaub
No.
unidentified
Okay, well, you don't know what I'm talking about, then.
bryan callen
Yeah, but Bobby, you're funnier than all those people.
unidentified
Yeah, I know, but...
bryan callen
And Ken Jeong is awesome and funny.
unidentified
Yeah, Ken Jeong's amazing.
brendan schaub
Does he do stand-up, too, or no?
unidentified
He used to, yeah.
bryan callen
He does mostly sketch.
Yeah, Ken did a little stand-up, didn't he?
bobby lee
Yeah, we're on tour together and stuff.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
brendan schaub
That must have been a...
unidentified
Who do you think people think you are, Brian?
bryan callen
Tom Cruise and Rory McDonald.
unidentified
Ah, I see.
bryan callen
They think I'm either Robbie Lawler or Rory McDonald.
brendan schaub
Has anyone mistaken for anything?
bryan callen
Luke Perry.
I don't want to talk about it right now.
unidentified
Do people say that, like you're Luke Perry?
bryan callen
It used to be.
I was like, oh, okay.
unidentified
I see it.
A little bit.
bryan callen
I'm older now, so my face is changed.
unidentified
How old is Luke Perry?
bryan callen
He's older than me.
I think Luke is about 51. Look him up.
brendan schaub
I wonder what he looks like.
bryan callen
I feel like everybody's younger than me, and they are.
Bobby, how old are you now?
unidentified
Oh man, old.
bryan callen
I'm 48, so relax.
brendan schaub
I'm 43. Dude, don't then...
unidentified
You're about to say something racist.
brendan schaub
Asians and black people age so much better than white people usually.
In general, they age so much better.
unidentified
Thank you.
Well, Asians, we're evolved, really.
We've evolved.
bryan callen
Damn it, Bobby.
Bobby, there he is.
There's Luke Perry.
unidentified
But look at how soft my skin is.
brendan schaub
I can see that.
unidentified
Touch my skin.
brendan schaub
You don't shave either?
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
How old is he now?
brendan schaub
48. Oh, you're the same age.
bryan callen
He might look a little older than me.
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
Okay, Brian.
bryan callen
Does he or no?
brendan schaub
Oh, for sure, brother.
unidentified
He looks older than you.
They are, Brian.
That's Brian.
brendan schaub
How old is he in that top left picture, though?
bryan callen
That's what people use to think I look like.
brendan schaub
Well, you guys have the same hairline, for sure.
bryan callen
Yeah, and similar eyes.
brendan schaub
You know what?
unidentified
I can see it.
brendan schaub
I can see it.
bryan callen
He's smaller than me.
brendan schaub
Oh, right there he looks about every bit of 55. You know what?
He's a good-looking dude.
That's good to compare him to, though.
That's a good comparison.
bryan callen
Oh, people used to say it.
Hey, homeboy.
You understand what I'm saying, right?
I just want to say that.
You're one of the funny people.
unidentified
Thank you so much.
I don't like compliments, but thank you so much.
bryan callen
You're that good.
unidentified
I'm a human being, and you go through depression, that's all.
bryan callen
You're top five.
brendan schaub
Ups and downs.
bryan callen
Funny guy.
unidentified
Don't you get depressed?
bryan callen
I don't.
brendan schaub
I've never seen Brian the Kid count.
unidentified
You've never been depressed.
brendan schaub
You know, I hang out with this guy damn near every day.
We've been on the road together.
We've been through some shit together.
I've never seen him down once.
unidentified
It's unbelievable.
brendan schaub
And it drives me fucking nuts.
unidentified
You're an anomaly then, because I always figured comedians were a lot sounder.
brendan schaub
Me too.
unidentified
They're supposed to be dark and have some demons.
I mean, this boy is just morose 90% every day.
I wake up going, I'm going to kill myself today.
bryan callen
He's a comic, but he's special.
Bobby's really special.
brendan schaub
And the thing about Callan, too, I don't know if you have this body, but he has more energy.
I'm 32. Callan has more energy than me, by far.
I can't keep up.
When we went to San Francisco together, I had to take naps.
bryan callen
I've always had crazy amount of energy.
brendan schaub
I took naps, and he was chilling.
bryan callen
I've always had a crazy amount of energy.
brendan schaub
Have you ever got your testosterone checked?
bryan callen
It must be high.
The doctor's like, sure.
unidentified
No, but you have all your hair still.
brendan schaub
Well, let's not get carried away.
bryan callen
He was just telling me I'm losing it.
brendan schaub
Let's not get carried away.
I walked into the studio the other day, and I thought he was doing cornrows, but he's just losing his hair.
I was like, oh, sick, Cal, you got cornrows.
And he's like, no, bro, I'm just losing my hair.
I swear I thought it was cornrows.
I was like, all right, we're cool.
bryan callen
Cornrows.
unidentified
Bobby, you and Brian should go on the show Naked and Afraid.
Yeah.
You know that show?
bryan callen
Yes, we talk about it all the time.
unidentified
I love that show.
You and I should do it.
bryan callen
We always talk about it.
unidentified
You're going to have to carry.
bryan callen
I got to cuddle you and stuff, then I got to carry you.
unidentified
That's fine.
brendan schaub
Can you haunt Bobby?
unidentified
No.
I don't know how to do anything.
That's why.
I think I'll last, though.
Just on his fat reserves.
Just my fat reserves alone.
bryan callen
Bobby's tougher than he gives himself credit for.
brendan schaub
Thanks, P. Where were you born and raised, Bobby?
unidentified
It's none of your fucking business, man.
Hey, man!
bryan callen
No, you're not that tough.
You're not that tough, dude.
unidentified
San Diego, dude.
San Diego, bro.
brendan schaub
Alright.
bryan callen
Oh, that's where you did a lot of street fighting?
unidentified
That's right.
bryan callen
Your name is...
brendan schaub
Powerful for us.
bryan callen
Dude, for us, it's a hobby.
brendan schaub
Now, do they give you those bright green shoes?
Is that how it works?
For free?
bryan callen
I like them if you can wear them that way.
Now, you have to understand, this guy is the future and the now.
Look at him.
brendan schaub
This kid has been groomed, groomed to be the next GSP and take over in Canada.
bryan callen
This is what he does, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
You want to talk about a guy who doesn't get nervous fight week?
Roy McDonald.
bryan callen
He doesn't?
brendan schaub
He's like a serial killer.
I thought they should have named him the Canadian Psycho.
He hates that nickname.
bryan callen
What's his nickname now?
The Titan?
The Red Dragon?
brendan schaub
The Red Man?
The Red King?
bryan callen
What does that mean?
I like it.
unidentified
It's like from Game of Thrones or something.
He's the Red King.
brendan schaub
The Red King.
He's young as shit.
He's been groomed for this exact moment.
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
I like his disposition.
He's introverted and sort of quiet like that.
brendan schaub
Anyone who knows Rory, he comes out of his shell and he's a funny dude.
I wish people could see it.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
He's actually really funny, super intelligent.
bryan callen
I bet.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's very funny, man.
bryan callen
I bet he's smart as shit.
brendan schaub
Very smart.
But he comes off almost as like that...
bryan callen
He's an amazing fighter.
He's an amazing fighter.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal.
bryan callen
He does everything right.
brendan schaub
Very hard.
It's going to be very tough to beat.
But a guy who can beat him is a guy like Robbie Lawler, who's beat him before, but Robbie Lawler just has that pressure, man.
And you're talking about a confident champion, Robbie Lawler, coming at you.
Look at him.
Look how happy he is.
Look at him.
bryan callen
He's been here since he was 17, I think.
brendan schaub
He just said, I'm coming.
God, that's that champion swagger, son.
It's hard to get.
bryan callen
Yeah, it is.
brendan schaub
And when you got it, bottle it.
bryan callen
He's a killer.
A murderer.
Look at him.
A murderer.
brendan schaub
He's the best 170-er in the world.
What song is he coming out to?
bryan callen
Like you said, though, you can see the 70-pound belt just being on rotation with these guys.
They're all...
I mean, they're all so fucking good.
brendan schaub
He's just been doing it for so long.
bryan callen
Couldn't look more relaxed.
Couldn't look more relaxed.
brendan schaub
Well, think about how many fights he's had and all the ups and downs.
You're talking about a guy who has a salty record, really.
I think he's 25 and 10. But before he went on this tear, he had a salty-ass record, man.
There was a time in his career where a lot of people were telling him, hey, man, it might be time to move on.
There was a time when he didn't spar for years.
He was just going there and trained and wouldn't spar.
bryan callen
Why wouldn't he spar?
brendan schaub
Because of the head trauma.
He'd think he was doing too much sparring, so he didn't time off.
And then that was when he was at Pat Milichick's camp, and then he moved to Florida.
bryan callen
Well, those guys were crazy.
brendan schaub
Yes, that's the old school days.
You're talking about Tim Sylvia, all those monsters.
Matt Hughes, all those guys.
So now he goes from there to ATT, where he's just flourishing, tearing it up.
bryan callen
That's an amazing facility down there.
brendan schaub
There's Stitch, Herb Dean.
bryan callen
Who's that guy right there with the puka shells?
brendan schaub
King Mo in his corner.
Phenomenal wrestler.
Bellator fighter.
Phenomenal, phenomenal wrestler.
unidentified
Is there food here?
brendan schaub
I'm going to have some bars in the back.
I feel like your energy's dropping a little.
You good?
unidentified
You want some coffee?
I need some food or something.
bryan callen
Alright.
unidentified
Do you have a bar?
brendan schaub
Well...
unidentified
Chips.
Low blood sugar.
I haven't blow blood pressure.
No.
brendan schaub
We're just getting to the thick of it, my man.
bryan callen
These are the fights.
These are...
unidentified
Well, all of them are great.
bryan callen
Now, this is a three-rounder, though.
Or is it a five-rounder?
brendan schaub
Five-rounder, because it's a title fight.
bryan callen
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
That's right.
Title fights are five rounds, Brian.
bryan callen
We've got two five-round fights.
We've got 50 minutes of fighting to go.
unidentified
Why can't they go that long?
bryan callen
Wow.
bobby lee
Can't they do endless rounds where, like, just whoever's standing is laughing?
unidentified
I think that'd be better.
No.
brendan schaub
If you hate ratings, sure.
bryan callen
Yeah, it'd be dangerous.
It'd be, it's too much.
It's insanity.
You'd have guys, like, stalling and doing weird shit.
I don't know.
brendan schaub
I don't know if they're stalling, but just be...
bryan callen
But in Brazil, they'd have fights, like, Hickson had fights that lasted an hour and a half.
brendan schaub
That's old school, man.
You can't do that anymore.
It wouldn't be a sport if you did that.
bryan callen
Look at this.
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Look at Bruce Buffer!
He's my favorite to watch, man.
He gets crunked for these.
I brought my own Stevia to the studio, Jamie.
I don't know if you noticed that.
I brought my own Stevia.
bryan callen
Get yourself a bar there, buddy.
How's that bar doing for you?
unidentified
That's actually...
You know what I read?
It actually doubles as an appetite suppressant.
brendan schaub
Really?
It has to be real Stevia extract.
If you get that Stevia at Ralph's...
unidentified
No, they have additives.
This is that all-natural, whole food shenanigans.
bryan callen
Bobby, I love your girlfriend.
unidentified
She's the best.
brendan schaub
We're gonna keep her.
Hope you don't mind.
unidentified
Please don't.
Okay.
Because I walk down the street and guys hit on her in front of me because they don't think that I'm dating her.
brendan schaub
That's fucked up, man.
unidentified
I'm used to it.
brendan schaub
What do they think?
You're like her freaking assistant?
unidentified
Like an assistant or something, yeah.
Or that I'm a prostitute.
No.
Yeah, I swear.
brendan schaub
No, come on.
unidentified
Or do they think that she's a part of some government organization that helps retarded kids walk across the street and stuff?
brendan schaub
People think it's Make-A-Wish.
unidentified
Yeah, something like that.
I'm not even lying.
Dude, I'm not even lying.
Dudes will just walk up to me.
I'm holding her hand.
They're cruel.
brendan schaub
She's a smoke show.
And they think you're an assistant.
unidentified
Yeah.
Sorry, bro.
How do you think I feel?
brendan schaub
Horrible, I bet.
No wonder you're depressed.
bryan callen
You want guacamole, Bobby?
unidentified
You just made it?
bryan callen
Yeah.
unidentified
It's pretty new.
Is it new?
bobby lee
I can't just eat raw guacamole.
unidentified
There's got to be chips and stuff.
You have chips right next to you.
It's okay, Bri.
bryan callen
Okay, thanks.
We can't turn the sound up for this, right?
brendan schaub
No, man.
We're doing a show.
Can't listen to the fights in silence.
Hey, Brian!
Ever done one of these before?
bryan callen
Sorry, buddy.
I'll turn the sound up for the other one.
brendan schaub
For just the walkout.
I wish there was a button I could hit that just slapped you.
You're like, K-Zero, you can listen to the volume.
bryan callen
Whoa!
He's an underdog in this.
brendan schaub
Because of the wrestling.
That's what I think.
And the last fight was close.
Such a good fight.
unidentified
How uncommon is that, that the champion actually comes in as the underdog?
brendan schaub
I mean, it's pretty rare.
It's pretty rare.
bryan callen
But Rory McDonald is very rare.
brendan schaub
But the thing is, the UFC, it's getting so competitive, it's all about styles and matchups.
So let's say Conor wins tonight.
When he fights Jose Aldo, I bet it's going to be close if he's an underdog.
unidentified
Look at these guys staring each other down.
brendan schaub
So with the UFC kits, if you're the champ, they're all black.
So if you're the champion, you're all black with gold.
I like it.
But I think for the non-champs, they have to make it different.
You can't have both white and black.
unidentified
Right.
bryan callen
I mean, you're in the face of...
I mean, look at this.
brendan schaub
Yeah, we're looking, bro.
bryan callen
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
Roy's very smart, very cerebral.
bryan callen
Stands right there, dude.
brendan schaub
Super cerebral fighter.
bryan callen
Stands right there.
brendan schaub
Best jab at 170. Best jab at 170. Very similar to Joel St. Pierre.
bryan callen
Guess who's a really good counterpuncher?
Robbie Lawler.
unidentified
Jesus.
brendan schaub
Hey, Brian, is there any way you can smack more into the mic, though?
bryan callen
Sorry, but I'm nervous.
I'm nervous as shit right now.
Oh!
unidentified
What are you doing?
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
Oof.
No one hits harder at 170 than Rory, that's for sure.
I mean, and Lawler.
Talk about a knockout artist.
bryan callen
Robert will put you to sleep.
unidentified
The last time they met, Lawler knocked him down a third, right?
brendan schaub
That was the game changer.
bryan callen
Look at our boy standing right in range of his right.
Yeah, right in the range of his right.
brendan schaub
He knows what he's doing, man.
bryan callen
I guess he does.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what's an advantage for Rory if it goes to the ground.
Roy's jiu-jitsu is very high level.
Compete in Metamorris, beat the brakes off a guy in Metamorris.
unidentified
Look at him kicking.
bryan callen
Look at how he's doing that weird front kick, that sort of 45 degree roundhouse.
brendan schaub
What'd you say, Jimmy?
bryan callen
Under his elbow.
unidentified
Purple in Lawler's shorts.
He's got different shorts on.
brendan schaub
You know what?
I think it's like a different material.
I think it's a light black, but it looks purple to extend it.
bryan callen
Weird flicking front kick.
Dude, he's just holding him off at that right...
brendan schaub
His range.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
He has a killer jab, a phenomenal jab, and then he uses those kicks to keep him at range.
Look at that jab, son.
bryan callen
Educated jab.
I call it an educated jab, Brendan.
Oh!
There's a right.
brendan schaub
Roy's not known as a knockout artist.
Roy wins.
It's going to be TKO later in the rounds, I think.
But the thing about Lawler is, A, he's freaking damn near impossible to knock out, especially lately, and B, he just hangs around, and if he lands one of those shots, it's night-night.
bryan callen
Well, that's why McDonald is so close to those hands!
brendan schaub
Yeah, but look, as soon as he gets in within range, he's eating a nice, stiff Canadian jab.
unidentified
Is Rory going to want to take him down?
bryan callen
That's what I call a nice, stiff Canadian jab.
brendan schaub
But the thing is, Robbie Lawler's takedown defense is so damn good, especially early on.
So I bet we see Robbie just pick him apart for a little bit, wear him out, and then start to move for the takedowns.
bryan callen
Rory, by the way, has thrown everything so far.
Robbie's thrown a little bit.
This is Rory McDonald's time.
brendan schaub
I agree.
I think it's his time.
And Canada needs a champion like Rory.
bryan callen
Rory McDonald is the most skilled fighter here.
He and Carlos Condit.
That's going to be the sick fight.
brendan schaub
You know they fought before, right?
bryan callen
Yes, I do.
But Rory McDonald's a very different fighter now.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
bryan callen
Notice how I whispered that?
Bobby.
brendan schaub
I like how you whisper.
When you whisper it, I listen more, man.
bryan callen
Thank you, buddy.
unidentified
Thank you.
bryan callen
I put my voice down like this.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you who doesn't want to be a celebrity.
bryan callen
Who?
brendan schaub
Roy McDonald.
bryan callen
Doesn't care.
He's just a fighter.
brendan schaub
He hates being noticed.
Hates being a celebrity.
unidentified
Love it.
bryan callen
I love him.
He's a true fighter.
unidentified
Makes him even more lovable.
bryan callen
He's a true fighter.
brendan schaub
True fighter and loves the finer things in life.
Loves a nice suit, nice pair of shoes.
bryan callen
Likes his ladies?
brendan schaub
Cars.
Loves a nice, pretty young lady.
unidentified
He's a quiet killer.
bryan callen
He's a stud, man.
brendan schaub
Super stud.
bryan callen
I'm very impressed with that kid.
unidentified
Great kid.
bryan callen
And I shouldn't call him a kid.
He's a man.
brendan schaub
He's the future of the UFC. You know why?
Because he doesn't have a background in wrestling, in taekwondo.
He has a background in mixed martial arts.
He went into the gym at 12 and started training in mixed martial arts.
That's why he's so good at everything.
bryan callen
And stayed dedicated to it.
brendan schaub
You're talking about a black belt and striking.
All these jabs of black belt, so black belt and boxing.
unidentified
Oh, did you see that?
Hey, look at Rory Short.
Did you see that?
He's got an ad on there.
You see that?
brendan schaub
Yeah, he has Monster.
bryan callen
Dude!
brendan schaub
Well, see, that's the thing.
Certain guys have exclusive deals, like Ronda has exclusive, right?
We'll see Monster on Connor shorts.
So I think certain guys with the big companies get additional sponsorship.
Because Roy's also an exclusive sponsor with Reebok, so he has a different deal than the rest of the guys.
He just signed with them, actually.
bryan callen
This is so weird, Brennan.
Holding him off with that hand like that.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what impressed me.
Yeah, of course, Rory's jab and holding him off and all this, but that takedown defense by Robbie.
Jesus, and he was in tight.
Robbie, that left hand of Robbie skips the shit out of him.
bryan callen
Robbie's holding that left hand.
You don't know if it's going to be an uppercut or a straight right.
He's a south ball then.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's a south ball, Brian.
bryan callen
Yeah, I didn't realize that.
brendan schaub
His entire career has been a south ball.
bryan callen
That's hard to fight, right?
Or is it you just adjust and you stay on the outside of that foot?
It's hard though, right?
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Southpaws are harder to fight because there's a lot more traditional fighters than there are Southpaws.
So it's very tough, especially when they're at such a high level like Robbie.
bryan callen
Gotta swat that.
brendan schaub
The key to Southpaw, you see that left foot?
You want to stay outside Robbie's right foot.
And avoid that left hand.
bryan callen
And come over that jab, right?
brendan schaub
No.
You want to use straight rights.
Straight rights are how you stop a Southpaw.
And a big right kick.
bryan callen
With your head to the outside.
brendan schaub
So that's one round for Rory, for sure.
And this is going to be frustrating for Robbie because he's going to be eating this all night.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
So he can't sit there and eat these jabs and kicks.
Because Rory does not give a flying patoot.
He can just sit there and pick you apart.
He'll win round, round, round, round.
bryan callen
Patient as shit.
brendan schaub
But now Robbie, right?
You're talking about conflicting styles.
Robbie just needs to land one to win this fight.
unidentified
I hated that round.
brendan schaub
Did you?
unidentified
I hated it.
brendan schaub
I loved it.
unidentified
It was boring.
brendan schaub
You know what?
You're the majority.
Everyone's like, God, that shit was boring.
bryan callen
I loved that round so much.
I loved it.
unidentified
Why?
Why?
brendan schaub
This level of a fight, to be that technical and use your jab, set up kicks.
bryan callen
You're watching them get positioned, where they're stepping.
brendan schaub
It's like the Floyd Mayer-Pacquiao fight.
Everyone's like, I hate that fight.
True fighters are like, oh my God, that fight was amazing.
bryan callen
It's like a gay dance.
unidentified
They just pointed a circle around.
brendan schaub
I can see how...
unidentified
And then you go this way, around, it's like, alright.
bryan callen
But here's the thing, Bobby, the level of technique, the way they're measuring each other, and how they're positioning and stuff, and your margin for error with these guys, and watching him fight a southpaw where he's sitting on the outside of that jab and trying to use his right.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
bryan callen
Watch his foot.
Watch how his foot is going to be on the outside every time.
unidentified
Watch their feet, man.
brendan schaub
That's weird.
You don't want to tell a guy that if he doesn't...
unidentified
Yeah, it doesn't matter.
What?
bryan callen
Hey, man.
unidentified
Sorry, bro.
brendan schaub
Bro, I'm trying to teach you lessons, so when guys call you out with your girl, let's slap some dudes around.
I'm going to take you as my protege, bro.
bryan callen
Show him a picture of Brendan.
brendan schaub
So when guys start heckling you with your girl, you can just whoop ass.
bryan callen
No, just say, this is Brendan Schaub's girlfriend.
That's what he's saying.
brendan schaub
Yeah, Robbie's going to have to make some changes here, man.
Because what he's doing now, staying outside, I love his movement here.
I love the footwork of Robbie right now.
bryan callen
Changing it up.
brendan schaub
You have to, otherwise you can get picked apart by the reach of Roy McDonald.
Cal, remember I was giving you shit for reach, how you want to shout about reach?
bryan callen
Yep.
brendan schaub
Well, we found a guy who's going to use it.
bryan callen
That's right, buddy.
brendan schaub
I'm sorry, friend.
bryan callen
That's all right, pal.
You know, you got it from Romero.
I spent a lot of time on my job.
unidentified
Well...
bryan callen
A lot of time.
My number one priority is my jab.
brendan schaub
That jab, man, it's just...
Robbie's going to have to mix it up, man, because he can't stay outside here.
He's going to have to start risking it.
bryan callen
It's amazing what a jab will do.
You just can't do much when it keeps...
That's what Fabrizio Verdum did to Cain Velasquez.
He just kept his jab in his face.
brendan schaub
Kind of.
Kind of.
I think Roy has the best jab in MMA. The last time we saw a jab like this was George St. Pierre.
bryan callen
Yep.
Agreed.
brendan schaub
Granted, they have the exact same coaches that come from the exact same camp.
unidentified
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Don't get that.
bryan callen
I love this.
I love this.
brendan schaub
Oh!
We don't want to start trading.
Let's get that jab back, son.
bryan callen
Look at these kicks.
Right in the face.
brendan schaub
What were you going to say?
unidentified
I don't understand how Fabrizio Verdum was that big of an underdog in terms of just the betting line.
brendan schaub
You know, he's always an underdog.
unidentified
I mean, if you think about it, Kane had fought two guys in the last five years previous to that.
bryan callen
True, but Kane's such a beast.
unidentified
Yeah, he is a beast.
But I'm just saying, like, Verdum had gone to war much more than him.
brendan schaub
I know.
And he beat the brakes off Mark Hunt.
He beat the brakes off Travis Brown.
unidentified
That's right.
brendan schaub
He beat Roy Nelson.
So Verdum, it's a respect thing.
We were talking about this on UFC Tonight when I was on there on Fox.
The thing is, he just doesn't get a lot of respect.
He's always an underdog.
It's like, when the hell are they going to get to it?
unidentified
But a huge margin, too.
brendan schaub
It's crazy.
bryan callen
Dude, look at how Rory just keeps...
brendan schaub
He's going to do this all night.
You're not going to get him out of his dame.
You're not going to lull him into a brawl.
bryan callen
Robbie doesn't have an answer right now.
He doesn't have an answer to what's going on.
brendan schaub
He's getting frustrated, and I bet you we see later this round, the third round, he just start opening up and taking chances, and he's going to pay for it.
Or he's going to clip Rory, right?
unidentified
Well, yeah, but it's hard to clip Rory.
bryan callen
But you're right, man.
If Robbie touches you the right way.
brendan schaub
Look at that athletic stance.
If you have a young kid who wants to get involved in MMA, you show him tape on Roy McDonald.
bryan callen
Oh my god, do you ever.
And then you say, never get into MMA. He doesn't eat a lot of punches.
brendan schaub
He's very disciplined.
bryan callen
It's also a mindset.
He's a serial killer.
brendan schaub
He's a different animal, for sure.
bryan callen
Just doesn't get, his heart rate never raises, it seems.
brendan schaub
Well, I'm sure it does, but he just stays cool, calm, collected.
That's why he's fighting for a UFC goal.
bryan callen
Not a lot of head movement, Brendan.
He's just standing there, but just measuring shots.
brendan schaub
It's his footwork that's getting him out of the way.
It's his distance control, which is everything.
It's peripheral.
bryan callen
Not worrying so much about slipping punches, but rather kind of being out of the way.
brendan schaub
He's relying on his feet, yeah, in his jab.
bryan callen
Man, he's just big, too.
He's big!
brendan schaub
Oh, well, better pay attention.
bryan callen
No, Robbie Lawler is a champion for a reason.
You get so nervous with Robbie because you can connect with him.
Look at this.
unidentified
This is the one.
brendan schaub
Oh, he opened him up.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
This is the one.
brendan schaub
Come on, Rory.
bryan callen
Move your feet, buddy.
Rory's standing there.
Taking it.
brendan schaub
Damn.
Now look who got confidence.
The champion's confidence, son.
That's trouble.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
Good counterpunch, Robbie Lawler.
brendan schaub
Look at the champ.
Look at this.
They're eating some shots now.
Rory, for sure, get out of the way.
bryan callen
I told you, he's standing within range.
brendan schaub
Well, now the champ found a little secret, huh?
Found a little open in the kitchen, as you call it, Callan.
bryan callen
Yep.
He's in his kitchen.
brendan schaub
He's in his kitchen.
unidentified
I think all UFC fighters should get a tan.
They should get a tan because when you're pale like that guy, you can see the blood more easily.
It doesn't always translate well, though.
Because I remember Lyoto Machida not too long ago came in with like an ultra fake tan and I saw it.
Like it was very obvious.
bryan callen
By the way, Rory McDonald's taking some shots right now, ladies and gentlemen.
brendan schaub
Yeah, this fight's not going five rounds.
They continue this pace.
Damn, you gotta give Robbie this one-to-one probably.
Wouldn't you say, Jamie?
bryan callen
Look at his face.
brendan schaub
Damn, the confidence of a champ is trouble when he starts opening up.
Now he's laying his jab in his lung too.
unidentified
Oh!
Oh!
bryan callen
Man, Robin Lola can take shit.
He can take shit, man.
He's so damn durable.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he took bunches from Johnny Hendricks.
unidentified
I want to apologize.
brendan schaub
The big rig.
unidentified
I want to apologize.
brendan schaub
What's up, man?
unidentified
I said the first round was bad, but the second round was very good, so I want to apologize.
You want action.
bryan callen
He broke his nose there.
brendan schaub
Uh, it looks like an orbital.
I wouldn't say his nose.
bryan callen
Alright, well, it's not good.
brendan schaub
Yeah, either way, it's not good.
bryan callen
It sucks.
brendan schaub
What's not good is you got the champ being comfortable, and he's like, oh, hold up.
Because that first round, you're frustrated.
Second round, you're like, well, so we got one-to-one.
bryan callen
Let's get some adrenaline on that fucking cut.
brendan schaub
Momentum's a motherfucker.
Momentum's a motherfucker in fighting.
bryan callen
Shit.
Dude.
brendan schaub
Roy hasn't been in trouble in a little bit.
bryan callen
Oh, no, he hasn't.
Man, oh, man.
Robbie Lawler is really...
Look at the counter on this fucker.
unidentified
I wasn't sold on Rory before this, but I really want him to win now.
brendan schaub
Right.
unidentified
Like, there's something about him that's just...
brendan schaub
I try to be unbiased, but goddammit, I suck at it.
Tell you who's good at being unbiased.
Our boy Joe Rogan.
Kinda has to be.
Right?
bryan callen
That just fucked him up.
brendan schaub
Yeah, we got one to one.
What a frickin' card!
bryan callen
He broke his orbital bone or something like that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it looks like an orbital's messed up.
And look at the champ frothing at the mouth.
That's what you don't want to see.
bryan callen
I'll tell you what, though.
We're in round three here, ladies and gentlemen.
Step over that fucking...
God, Robbie Lawler just keeps his eyes open and just sees everything coming.
brendan schaub
Did you say he keeps his eyes open?
bryan callen
Yes.
Oh...
These exchanges are where you're like, you hold your breath like one shot to the chin.
brendan schaub
Something's going down this round.
Someone's getting dropped.
This round's going to be a game changer.
Yeah, it's just a matter of time.
I don't like the way Rory's eating shots.
bryan callen
I don't either.
I feel like he's coming in and getting caught when he comes in.
He's paying for everything he throws.
brendan schaub
Well, Robbie found his timing.
Robbie's found some niche on his timing.
And if I'm Rory, I'm going to mix it up and shoot for a takedown.
Because what he's doing now, he's starting to get ate up a little bit.
unidentified
Damn.
brendan schaub
And you can tell with the kicks and his movement, Robbie's just loose as fuck.
Oh, oh, fuck, son.
How about the chin on our boy, old Rory, red guy, McDonald.
Red king.
I don't like that.
bryan callen
Look at the elbows.
brendan schaub
Yeah, they get in close.
He throws his elbows.
His face skin ate up.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Tell you what, man.
I don't care how good your shit is.
You're not eating too many of those Robbie Lawler left hands very long.
bryan callen
Zone's getting dropped, son.
brendan schaub
Yeah, it does.
God, dog, how good is Robbie Lawler?
bryan callen
So good.
So fucking good.
He's the champion.
Oh, no.
brendan schaub
I like the takedown attempt.
bryan callen
There you go.
unidentified
Needs it.
He needs it.
There we go.
brendan schaub
Holy takedown defense, Batman.
bryan callen
Holy takedown defense is right.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
bryan callen
You're talking about a true martial artist here.
brendan schaub
You're talking about a high-level wrestler, too, in Roy McDonald.
Holy shit.
unidentified
Look at his face.
Oh, my God.
bryan callen
This is his nose.
His face looks like a red mask.
He looks like the Red King right now.
Let's not do the Taekwondo axe kick, please.
I'm telling Robert Leonard what not to do.
brendan schaub
Roy looks like the red guy I just watched before I came here from Captain America.
The bad skull guy.
That's what he looks like.
The red skull.
I think his name should be the red skull.
You could market that.
bryan callen
Shit.
unidentified
Shit.
bryan callen
It's crazy shit, man.
brendan schaub
Man, his face is beat up.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Telling you something's going down this round.
bryan callen
Such an interesting red face.
brendan schaub
Oh, look at these.
bryan callen
Wow.
brendan schaub
Close second round.
bryan callen
Roy's trying to readjust.
brendan schaub
Roy's in trouble, yeah, yeah.
Because the takedown was nowhere near happening.
That takedown offense is so impressive.
bryan callen
Look at the stalker in Robbie Lowe.
And that's crazy that he couldn't take him down.
brendan schaub
Not even close, right?
unidentified
Damn it.
Fuck.
bryan callen
He had that single deep, too.
brendan schaub
Super deep.
bryan callen
And I don't know how Robbie got...
How did Robbie defend that?
What was that?
I didn't even see how he did that.
brendan schaub
Just great takedown offense, Brian.
I'm not going to break down wrestling 101. With a wizard?
bryan callen
Oh!
It doesn't matter.
His hands are up.
His hands are protecting himself.
He's protecting his body.
He's taking those shots off his forearms.
brendan schaub
They're both slowing down a little this round, right?
It is the third.
That's only natural.
It's mid-third.
This fourth round is going to be a barn burner.
bryan callen
Oh!
Body shot.
It doesn't matter with Robbie Lawler.
I just don't see him ever...
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Talk about a career resurgence.
bryan callen
That is insane.
It's like he's mastered.
It's like it clicked.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's a master of MMA. Yeah.
Which very few are.
bryan callen
I mean...
brendan schaub
That first round, I thought Ryder was going to be in some serious trouble.
I thought he was for sure going to win this.
I just thought it was going to be a clear-cut decision.
bryan callen
Look at the blocking.
I got to start taking my striking more seriously, Brennan. - Okay.
unidentified
Please don't shut up.
bryan callen
I don't have this kind of fucking...
I don't have this in and out.
I gotta start pissing me off.
brendan schaub
You know what the problem is?
The other day you told me you sparred and you didn't get hit once.
I think that would be a problem.
bryan callen
Or I'm just that elusive.
brendan schaub
Don't get me wrong.
I'm sure you're very similar to Floyd Mayweather, but you haven't been boxing very long.
If you're a sparring guy who can't hit you, it might be time to switch it up.
bryan callen
But it makes me feel like I'm Floyd Mayweather when I box somebody who's never boxed before.
First time with your gloves on?
Move around with me.
Oh!
unidentified
Oh!
What the fuck?
bryan callen
What?
That just...
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
bryan callen
Robin Lawler just got rocked here.
He did.
brendan schaub
Is every fight like...
unidentified
Yes!
bryan callen
Oh my god!
unidentified
Every fight's like round of the year in this fight.
bryan callen
Dude, are you kidding me?
You got a new champion.
unidentified
Look at Robin Lawler.
bryan callen
Take the beating.
unidentified
What the hell?
This is the greatest fight card I've ever seen.
bryan callen
Dude, are you kidding me?
brendan schaub
He's gonna get out of the round.
Are you kidding me?
unidentified
He's gonna get out of the round.
Oh my god!
Look at that one smiling!
Oh my god!
What a fight!
Oh my god!
bryan callen
And still going, no worries.
Let's go.
brendan schaub
Holy shit!
unidentified
Are you kidding me, Brennan?
bryan callen
That was a roundhouse, which I'm going to kick you in the front.
brendan schaub
Please don't ruin this.
Please don't ruin this moment.
unidentified
Amazing.
What a fight!
brendan schaub
That's the greatest UFC fight card I've ever seen.
Hands down, every fight.
bryan callen
How about Robbie Lawler still able to clam up, keep his composure, and come back?
unidentified
It was sort of a delayed response, too.
I didn't think he would have gotten rocked by that.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
jamie vernon
Rory's gotten beaten up kind of bad before, but still won.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yep.
bryan callen
Yeah, Rory McDonald is an absolute killer.
He's tired right now.
He's breathing heavy.
brendan schaub
They're both tired, right?
bryan callen
True.
unidentified
But he's still got the crazy in his eyes.
I think McDonald is still on.
Did it hit behind the ear?
bryan callen
Yes.
brendan schaub
Right behind the ear.
So that's going to mess up your equilibrium.
That's not a chin issue.
That's nothing.
You get hit right behind the ear.
unidentified
So anytime you hit closer to the temporal area?
brendan schaub
Back here.
Yeah, right behind the ear.
It's so sensitive.
So it throws off your equilibrium.
So you can see them a little wobbly.
It's different than getting hit in the jaw.
It's completely different.
unidentified
Holy shit.
brendan schaub
Look at both of them.
bryan callen
I'm freaking out.
unidentified
I am freaking the fuck out!
My God.
My God.
Oh.
Oh my god, he's coming back.
He's coming now.
bryan callen
This is an amazing fight.
You're talking about Rory McDonald here.
You're talking about the biggest freak.
Oh my god.
unidentified
Oh my lord.
brendan schaub
Robbie's still getting recovered.
Robbie's recovered.
unidentified
Oh my god.
Oh shit.
bryan callen
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
You're talking about a new champion.
Oh my god.
McCarthy's going to have to stop this.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
unidentified
Please don't.
Please no.
Two more minutes.
bryan callen
Bobby, stop talking.
Two more minutes.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
There's another shot.
unidentified
Same area.
bryan callen
Oh my god, another one.
unidentified
Yeah, he hasn't recovered at all.
brendan schaub
When's the last time you saw a welterweight championship fight?
bryan callen
Dude, what is this?
Look at Rory McDonald.
Look at the beast that he is.
brendan schaub
I mean, Hendrix Lala was good.
unidentified
Are you kidding me?
brendan schaub
Hendrix Lala 2 is good.
bryan callen
I was there.
This is nothing.
This is the craziest shit I've ever seen.
brendan schaub
This whole fight card is some of the best fights I've ever seen ever in UFC history.
bryan callen
Oh my god.
Rory McDonald.
Why is he backing off right now?
He's just getting his composure?
He's tired?
What?
Help me.
brendan schaub
It's the fourth round.
bryan callen
I don't give a shit.
unidentified
Help me.
bryan callen
You know who's winning this fight right now?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
It's very clear.
bryan callen
Rory McDonald.
Oh!
Oh, I thought he knocked him out.
unidentified
Oh.
No, he went for a takedown.
bryan callen
Oh, my God.
This is just too much.
unidentified
Man.
My man.
brendan schaub
Boy, they were close to stopping it there.
That was, I mean, inches away from being stopped.
bryan callen
Come on, Rory.
Come on, Rory.
unidentified
He still looks wobbly.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he's not all there, that's for sure.
bryan callen
He's plotting forward.
brendan schaub
Well, Rory's tired, too.
He spent a lot of energy trying to finish him there, especially in the third and fourth round.
bryan callen
Rory is really tired.
brendan schaub
They're both really tired, Brian.
But Rory, you know, his gas tank's running low because he's trying to finish him.
So they're both buying time to fill that tank back on up.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
Good Lord!
bryan callen
Oh, another kick.
brendan schaub
What were you saying, Bobby?
bobby lee
Sometimes does your tank not fill up?
brendan schaub
Yeah, especially this late.
But the thing is, for a guy like...
bryan callen
This is an eon to fight this long.
I would have told you it's impossible.
With wrestling and everything, it's the craziest shit.
Come on.
brendan schaub
Well, no, it's not impossible.
Actually, a lot of guys do fight this long.
bryan callen
I know, but it's fucking the hardest thing in sports.
brendan schaub
Especially when it's your job.
So a lot of guys can fight this long.
The thing is, for Roy, when you know you're close to finishing a guy, you don't even think about your gas tank.
You get this crazy energy, man.
I don't know where it comes from.
unidentified
I would get gassed out just walking to the ring.
bryan callen
I'm gassed out watching this shit.
unidentified
That's sort of like psychological at that point, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah, 100%.
unidentified
Oh my god.
bryan callen
Look at Robbie Lauder coming back.
Look at this.
unidentified
This is a fight.
This is.
Every fight's been a great fight.
brendan schaub
This card's fucking incredible, man.
bryan callen
Holy shit, this is such a fucking...
brendan schaub
Wait till this arena still has Connor to walk out.
Wait till Connor walks out.
bryan callen
I can't take it.
brendan schaub
This shit might collapse.
The feed might just break down.
bryan callen
God damn it, Rory.
unidentified
Tough fights to follow.
bryan callen
Rory's fucking really tired.
Rory's got less in the gas tank right now.
Man, you will not find a fighter more durable than this fucking Robbie Lawler.
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Insane.
unidentified
Oh!
Oh!
bryan callen
Look at this!
unidentified
Why would he do that?
Because he's a good wrestler.
brendan schaub
That'll win the round, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you, talk about takedown defense.
unidentified
Good.
I would not do that.
God.
Even this tired, he's able to...
brendan schaub
Insane.
unidentified
Yeah, the fact that...
brendan schaub
In-fucking-sane.
bryan callen
Oh, man.
unidentified
Jesus.
bryan callen
Rory, this is a brutal fucking...
This is insanity.
brendan schaub
There's no tougher job in the world.
bryan callen
Who won this round?
unidentified
I still think.
brendan schaub
Rory did, yeah.
unidentified
Can you fight if you have AIDS? No.
brendan schaub
You can't play any sports if you have AIDS. Any professional sports.
Well, did Magic play with HIV? Or hepatitis.
unidentified
Magic played a little bit with HIV. I'd be more afraid with hep C more than anything.
brendan schaub
Well, no, you get blood tests for every fight.
If you have hep C, you're not fighting.
If you have anything, any blood disease, you're not fighting.
unidentified
Because HIV is not a durable virus.
bryan callen
Look at Robbie's lip.
It's split all the way up.
unidentified
Is it really?
bryan callen
Yes.
Look at his lip.
brendan schaub
Like the Joker.
Like the real life Joker.
unidentified
Oh, you're right.
His lip is awful.
Oh my god, look at his lip.
brendan schaub
He's still going back to that head kick that wobbled him.
bryan callen
His lip is literally cut all the way up.
unidentified
Oh my god.
bryan callen
That's not good.
unidentified
I just saw a chunk of flesh cut.
Both of them are jacked up.
brendan schaub
I think Dana White's going to be like, Oprah, you get a bonus, you get a bonus, you get a bonus, you get a bonus.
unidentified
How can you pick one?
bryan callen
Best UFC I've ever seen.
brendan schaub
Hands down, best UFC I've ever seen.
What a way to kick it off.
unidentified
Better than UFC 100?
brendan schaub
It is.
bryan callen
Look at Rory McDonald.
Look at these two men.
unidentified
I talked all that shit about UFC 100. Look at these two gladiators.
Holy shit.
brendan schaub
Look at them staring at each other.
unidentified
Look at that.
Look at them staring at each other!
This is unbelievable.
This is like 300 or something, man.
brendan schaub
Holy shit, neither guy wanted to back down.
bryan callen
Dude, you're talking about killers?
brendan schaub
Fifth round.
Fifth round, 20 minutes, exhausting.
bryan callen
They may stop this fight.
They might not let him go out there with that lip.
unidentified
That lip is completely open.
brendan schaub
No, they'll let you fight with a torn lip.
bryan callen
Let me see.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
I gotta make a decision.
Where's my phone?
brendan schaub
Holy shit!
How about neither got one to back down?
unidentified
Oh my god.
bryan callen
So fucking nuts.
This is nuts.
unidentified
Even that torn lip's not bleeding as much as Rory's face, though, so I don't think they're gonna stop it.
Rory McDonald is a fucking beast.
Ah!
brendan schaub
Some of the craziest fighting I've ever seen in my life.
unidentified
Oh my lord.
bryan callen
Able to take that.
unidentified
Cross the nose.
bryan callen
His face looks really pale.
He's fucking tired, man.
I hate when they're...
It just worries me.
Look at his face.
He's looking at himself.
His nose is broken.
brendan schaub
Look at that!
unidentified
Look at that lip.
Jesus.
brendan schaub
I love how neither guy would break and walk to the corner.
bryan callen
Out for fucking blood.
Out for blood.
brendan schaub
20 minutes of destroying each other.
bryan callen
Look, man, Robbie Lawler has got the craziest cardio I've ever seen.
He's just not tired after all that.
Well, whatever.
brendan schaub
They're both doing very well.
unidentified
I think they're running on empty at this point.
They're both pretty tired.
I think their mind is carrying them over at this point.
brendan schaub
Well, you're talking about championship rounds now.
unidentified
That's what separates the men from the boys.
You can't say women because there's some badass women out there.
brendan schaub
I don't know how you'd score this fight.
I'd say Roy's up.
God.
It's tough, man.
bryan callen
Dude, look at this.
brendan schaub
Whoever wins this round is probably going to win the fight.
bryan callen
Yeah, you're right, Brendan.
brendan schaub
Because Roy won the last round, lost the one...
Well, no.
Is Roy up three?
bryan callen
Oh, and those elbows in there.
brendan schaub
You think it's three to one?
unidentified
I mean, is it 2-2?
God.
Oh!
What did he do that for?
brendan schaub
Did he get poked in the eye?
unidentified
What?
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
unidentified
That poked in the eye, I think.
No, no, no.
It was a shot right here.
brendan schaub
It looked like it dropped him right on the...
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
It's weird Rory just fell down like that.
unidentified
Yeah, but it was directly in the middle.
Oh, man.
The bullseye that Brian was talking about.
That looked odd to me.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
bryan callen
Holy mother of God.
That was...
brendan schaub
Greatest fight in 170 history?
It's up there.
bryan callen
I have to agree.
I don't know what to say about that fight.
That was brutal.
That was the craziest shit I've ever seen.
What a fucking badass.
unidentified
And Rory was ahead in the scorecard, too.
Yeah, I need to see that replay.
brendan schaub
I need to see the replay.
I'll tell you what.
Those fans in that arena are getting a treat.
bryan callen
Dude.
unidentified
There's Edward James almost again.
brendan schaub
Here it is.
unidentified
Let's see what happened here.
brendan schaub
Oh, he broke his nose.
unidentified
That's it.
That was it.
Shattered his nose.
It probably went right in.
Into his brain.
Oh, my God.
brendan schaub
Yeah, his nose was just so jacked up.
unidentified
Oh, ow, ow, ow.
brendan schaub
Oh, wow.
His nose was so jacked up.
unidentified
I'm guessing the bone probably pierced inward.
But if it went up, he would have died.
Well, look, Roy knew something was wrong with his nose.
brendan schaub
So he just dropped, huh?
unidentified
He just dropped.
Oh, my God.
It's brutal.
bryan callen
Ah, no, no, no.
brendan schaub
That sucks that fight inward like that.
unidentified
Look at his lip.
brendan schaub
Nah, your nose won't change your career.
unidentified
At all.
brendan schaub
At all.
bryan callen
No?
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
Relax on the dramatic comments, Callan.
bryan callen
Alright, I don't know how you do this.
unidentified
Very different weather.
I know.
bryan callen
Look at his lip.
brendan schaub
How about Matt Brown, number one most knockouts in welterweight history.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
Look at Anthony Johnson, fights at light heavyweight now at number six.
bryan callen
Look at his lip, he doesn't give a fuck.
brendan schaub
Hell no, he's the world champion.
Champion of the world.
He can't even feel his lip right now.
unidentified
You don't feel any of that after you fight with you.
brendan schaub
Smooth 15 minutes after.
bryan callen
What do they do with Rory?
Rush into the hospital right now?
brendan schaub
Yes.
Dana's telling them right now.
He's saying one of the greatest fights I've ever seen.
Everything's alright.
You know you're getting a nice bonus check, son.
I think they get a portion of the pay for you, so these boys are about to get paid.
bryan callen
Because this fight card's insane.
Robbie Lawler is just fucking incredible.
Look at his lip.
brendan schaub
UFC fan gear available.
bryan callen
That's going to be feel good when you have to stitch that lip up, right?
brendan schaub
When your champion's going to feel great, man.
You don't give a shit, Brian.
What a freaking fight.
What a real champion.
What a real champion.
I don't want to see Johnny Hendricks for the third.
I mean, the last fight was super close.
unidentified
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Taron Woodley's ranked third.
Woodley's third.
I don't know what they do there.
Let's hear this.
Hands down.
unidentified
Ever.
brendan schaub
He's legend status now, son.
Look at the meathead in the back.
unidentified
Dude.
Damn, his lip is intense.
brendan schaub
What a great scar, though.
How'd you get that scar?
Oh, me?
Greatest fight in welterweight history.
unidentified
Small price to pay.
I mean, obviously...
Boom!
Oh, that's it.
Oh, that's it.
Oh.
brendan schaub
Jesus.
Hopefully they interview Rory.
Hopefully they do.
He's not a man of many words, but hopefully they do.
unidentified
Well Damn I want to see a third between them, for sure.
brendan schaub
I would love to see a rematch.
bryan callen
That's a good point, he said.
That's years of fruition.
That wasn't one punch.
brendan schaub
That was my life.
bryan callen
That was my whole life.
brendan schaub
Yeah, all these camps.
bryan callen
Yeah, you want to punch like that?
Practice.
We'll talk to you in 20 years.
He's been fighting for how many years now?
Literally, maybe 15?
brendan schaub
Forever, man.
bryan callen
Like, that's a guy who's mastered this game.
brendan schaub
He's a master.
He's a black belt in mixed martial arts.
CM Punk.
God, I'd love to see you fight him, Callan.
I'm not joking either.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
I'm not a fighter is the problem, so...
Neither is he, but...
brendan schaub
Neither one of you have had a fight, so why not do it, Callan?
bryan callen
My ego's too big, so...
unidentified
The adulterer right there.
bryan callen
Because I try to do something.
brendan schaub
Easy, brother.
unidentified
He's a cheater, this guy.
brendan schaub
That's the greatest governor of California.
unidentified
He's a cheater.
bryan callen
What do you mean, a cheater?
unidentified
Why?
He cheated on his wife, right?
brendan schaub
Yeah.
unidentified
Hey, you shut up.
With the Mexican...
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah.
With an ex and nanny.
unidentified
Nanny.
brendan schaub
Did you see the kid they had?
bryan callen
Beautiful.
unidentified
I don't care.
That's ungodly.
bryan callen
He's jacked.
He's jacked.
brendan schaub
He got all the Arnold genes.
unidentified
Yep, he sure did.
brendan schaub
He looks just like Arnold.
And he's rich.
bryan callen
And he's swole.
brendan schaub
He has all the Arnold.
He's going to be the next Mr. Olympia.
Meanwhile, the other kids that he had with...
bryan callen
I haven't seen a picture of his son.
brendan schaub
He's pretty cool.
bryan callen
What's his name?
Do we know?
brendan schaub
Don't know.
Don't care, Brian.
Really not important.
Not a friend of ours.
bryan callen
I want to see him now.
brendan schaub
Little Schwarzenegger, how about that?
bryan callen
That's what he's called?
brendan schaub
His name's Alejandro Schwarzenegger.
unidentified
Guys, here we go.
bryan callen
Turn this up for a second.
brendan schaub
Is it?
unidentified
I got the call.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what.
bryan callen
Bro, I don't know, man.
This is insane.
brendan schaub
I've never seen anything like this.
bryan callen
Now, when you're back there, do you have the TV on watching these fights?
brendan schaub
Yeah, you do.
bryan callen
You do?
brendan schaub
Yeah, everyone has the TV on.
bryan callen
Why would you want to watch this?
brendan schaub
It's just good to see what's going on, and it's good to see that, you know, sometimes in your mind you make it a bigger deal than it is, you know?
unidentified
Okay.
brendan schaub
And then when you watch it on TV, you're like, yeah, I've done that.
bryan callen
But when I'm watching this kind of slaughter, this kind of insanity...
brendan schaub
That war?
No, sometimes that motivates you.
It's the worst if you see a guy go out there and get a brutal knockout in the first round.
Yeah, that's his striking coach.
unidentified
Do you think that Chad's going to be able to take down Connor?
brendan schaub
Yes.
unidentified
I think so, too.
brendan schaub
I thought Dennis Seaver did.
unidentified
Seaver took him down.
brendan schaub
Seaver took him down.
unidentified
It's a kickboxer.
brendan schaub
Yes, kickboxer.
This girl knows her shit.
unidentified
And also, he stands pretty wide, too.
Super wide.
brendan schaub
That lead legs in trouble.
unidentified
He can at least go for a single.
I taught her that.
He stands wide.
bryan callen
I'm so impressed with your girl, I can barely take it.
brendan schaub
I want to say I saw Sylvester Stallone in Chad Mendes.
That looked like Sylvester Stallone.
bryan callen
By the way, Chad Mendes is in there.
He actually hired Chad Mendes to warm him up before the fight.
unidentified
Has Steven Seagal had a loss yet?
brendan schaub
He's never competed.
unidentified
No, I mean, like, you know how he supports a fighter and they always win?
brendan schaub
No, he supported Lyoto Machida when he fought Randy Couture, because I warmed up Randy Couture for that fight, and he got kicked in the face.
Oh, you know what?
No, so that would mean he did support Lyoto.
Fuck, I don't know.
Has he ever?
unidentified
No, I don't think so.
brendan schaub
He's undefeated?
unidentified
Yeah, he's undefeated.
brendan schaub
No, Anderson Silva, when his leg fell off, he was there, right?
unidentified
But that was not a true loss, I feel.
That was an injury.
brendan schaub
Still a loss, though.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I don't know.
There's not too many people I'd let in my corner.
I would tell Steven Seagal to beat it.
Jon Jones did.
Jon Jones was like, get the hell out of here.
He tried coming back to celebrate with Jon Jones.
unidentified
For real?
brendan schaub
Yeah, and Jon Jones was like, no, I don't know you, man.
bryan callen
Really?
brendan schaub
You're talking about a true champion in Jon Jones.
unidentified
So does he just crawl up to a corner from behind and just be like, hey, I'm here to support you?
brendan schaub
He's just trying to take selfies and shit and get involved in the fight game.
Did you see his video in Russia?
Where he put on, like, these guys attack him?
He puts on, like, in front of a huge auditorium, he's, like, acting like he's mislocking and doing all this shit.
unidentified
He's a god in the Philippines.
brendan schaub
Is he?
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
I grew up knowing only Steven Seagal.
Wow.
brendan schaub
What about Jean-Claude Van Damme?
unidentified
Not as much as Steven Stahl.
brendan schaub
That's disappointing.
You guys need some culture.
bryan callen
Not a one of fighters, but not a one been in a ring, really.
brendan schaub
I mean, at least Jean-Claude Van Damme, I mean, yeah, well.
unidentified
Look at Joe Woken, just like, what the fuck is going on here?
bryan callen
Joe's so excited.
brendan schaub
Look at him, his face is like, holy...
I can't believe we're just now getting the main event.
What a crazy night of fights.
If you guys need to go and you're tired, I get it.
This isn't for everyone.
unidentified
So for Conor and Chad Mendes right now, are they thinking we need to put on a fight after watching all of those?
brendan schaub
A little bit.
Yeah, there's a little bit.
There's more pressure on Conor.
bryan callen
I was going to say.
brendan schaub
There's a lot of pressure on Conor.
unidentified
Because you're the main event.
brendan schaub
You're the main event.
This entire fight card is really around Conor.
The entire arena is for Conor.
The UFC's invested all their marbles into Conor.
Number one, you have to win.
Just win, baby.
Al Davis, just win, baby.
bryan callen
Now we're even more hyped for the other fight.
brendan schaub
First of all, if Conor wins tonight, especially if he doesn't commence in fashion, he's the biggest star the UFC's ever had.
Bar none.
If he loses, we're in trouble.
bryan callen
If he loses, we're in trouble, but I gotta tell you, what a night tonight for the UFC. I mean, as far as just fights, that was the craziest shit!
brendan schaub
Crazy, crazy.
Now, hear me out here, as great as this night's been, if Conor loses, it's not a win for the UFC. It's been a phenomenal fight card.
If Conor gets destroyed...
It's not fun, right?
Because you can talk all that shit and we're all buying into it.
But then if you get murked by a guy on 12 days notice...
bryan callen
Connor brings in guys like Chris D'Elia.
Chris D'Elia knows nothing about fighting.
Chris is like, who's this crazy guy?
brendan schaub
Our buddy Chris D'Elia texts...
Oh, you know Chris.
On a group text message, hey, what's this Irish guy all about?
unidentified
I just said, you're not my friend, Chris.
brendan schaub
My mom texts me.
She doesn't watch any UFC. That's how big of a deal this guy's getting.
My mom texts me and said, you think the Irish guy's going to win?
unidentified
Huh?
brendan schaub
You want to talk about fucking Superstar?
unidentified
Um, yeah, I mean...
brendan schaub
Like I said, it's been a great fight card.
Everyone's happy.
unidentified
Why is he a big deal?
Because he won five fights?
brendan schaub
Or is this flair?
unidentified
It's an overall persona, the way he fights.
It's a package.
He literally is the greatest face of everything right now.
brendan schaub
He's an international superstar.
When he speaks...
bryan callen
What's your Twitter handle?
unidentified
BobbyLeeLive.
brendan schaub
When he speaks, he says, I'm going to knock this guy in the first round.
He knocks him out in the first round.
We've never seen a mouthpiece like this in UC. Boxing had Muhammad Ali.
Granted, you've got to realize Muhammad Ali was an Olympian gold medalist, boxer, phenomenal fighter.
So when he talked, we obviously listened.
Conor has five fights, and he has this Muhammad Ali kind of charisma about him.
He still has a ways to go before we call him Muhammad Ali, but he's the closest thing to greatness we have right now as far as being the complete package.
unidentified
Would this be his biggest test so far, Chad Mendes?
brendan schaub
Not even close.
Dustin Poirier, phenomenal fighter.
No disrespect.
He's amazing.
World-class.
One of the top-notch guys.
Chad Mendes is a fucking monster.
I don't like the fight.
If I'm the UFC, I don't have him fight Chad Mendes.
unidentified
Would you have fought?
Who would have fought?
Frankie Edgar?
brendan schaub
Someone else.
Nope.
Definitely not Frankie.
unidentified
It would have been the same, right?
Frankie Edgar or Mendes?
Mendes was next in line.
brendan schaub
Well, see, I don't think Conor would have beat Jose.
I don't know.
At least Jose would have been a stand-up battle.
Now we're talking about Chad Mendes, Frank Jaeger, talking about two guys mixing it up.
We'll see, man.
Who knows?
Maybe Conor gets taken down and he has some sick jiu-jitsu we haven't seen.
Maybe he defends it and knocks Chad out.
Worst case scenario, even if it goes decision and it's kind of controversial, that's fine.
We can take that.
But if he gets knocked out, that's what we don't want.
bryan callen
Dude, here we go.
unidentified
Here we go.
brendan schaub
Let's turn this up!
DJ, hit me!
bryan callen
Well, Chad's coming out first, right?
Or is Connor coming out first?
brendan schaub
I think Connor's coming out first, which hints the giant Irish flag in the middle of that.
unidentified
Hold, hold, hold!
brendan schaub
He has, uh, what's her name?
Sinead O'Connor.
bryan callen
Let's listen to this.
Turn this up, turn this up.
unidentified
Your favorite, Bobby.
I love her.
bryan callen
An old Irish song she's singing.
unidentified
She looks every bit of 70.
brendan schaub
Sorry. Sorry.
unidentified
Is this a first for the UFC too?
The singing?
brendan schaub
We've never seen this.
unidentified
She looks like she has a grizzly pussy.
brendan schaub
She hasn't been allowed in America since she burned the flag on Saturday Night Live.
unidentified
Desecrated the flag.
brendan schaub
Well, she hasn't been on TV in America since she burned the flag.
unidentified
I love her so much.
brendan schaub
The power of Conor McGregor got her ass back into the States.
unidentified
This is amazing.
Holy shit.
brendan schaub
What is about to go down?
unidentified
This is the real shit right here.
brendan schaub
She said turn that shit up.
She can't hear?
unidentified
This is like a boxing title fight now.
brendan schaub
Almost bigger.
unidentified
The whole production is like amazing.
brendan schaub
I've never seen a production like this.
There's only one guy in the UFC who can do this.
Conor McGregor.
Oh, if they remix it right now.
Notorious.
That'd be sick.
unidentified
Notorious.
Bobby, he goes by Notorious.
Oh.
Notorious.
brendan schaub
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Oh, look at him.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hell yeah.
bryan callen
You gotta be nervous here.
If you're Conor McGregor, you gotta be nervous as shit.
brendan schaub
This is insane, man.
Look at him.
God.
unidentified
Wow.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
unidentified
I'm going to cry right now.
brendan schaub
I've never seen anything like this.
I've never seen anything like this.
unidentified
I love it.
brendan schaub
Conor, usually if a guy's so arrogant, it's hard to root for him.
Conor's a guy who's arrogant, but he wins you over.
You root for him.
I've never seen anything like it.
Look at him.
Wait for this crowd.
Wait till he comes out here.
Here we go, boys.
Ladies.
I got goosebumps.
unidentified
Me too.
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
I got goosebumps.
unidentified
This is amazing.
brendan schaub
I bet you next fight he has you too.
For reals?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
This motherfucker is a superstar.
You two tweeted a picture out giving thumbs up and had a big picture of Connor on stage in wherever the fuck they were.
unidentified
Oh wow.
brendan schaub
Doesn't get much bigger than that.
Biggest star we've ever had.
He wins tonight.
By far the biggest.
unidentified
I'm awful.
I'm rooting for Chad Mendes.
I get it.
I love Chad.
brendan schaub
I love Chad.
For some reason, Conor has this factor where he's won me over.
I'm rooting for this guy.
He was on the Fire and Kid podcast.
He's the coolest guy.
I went to lunch with him in Venice.
He gets the game, and he's a true martial artist.
unidentified
This is necessary for him to win.
Yeah.
I... I just picture myself being Chad Mendes' mom and then hating him so much because my son is technically...
bryan callen
The Irish are so patriotic, man.
They've been shit on their whole history.
brendan schaub
Name the last hero they've had as far as athletics.
bryan callen
Ricky Hatton got his ass not bad.
He's from the England.
brendan schaub
Ricky Hatton's English.
bryan callen
The Irish also, their history has been one of...
brendan schaub
Yeah, can you go on a quick history lesson before Conor comes out?
bryan callen
It's true.
It's a huge reason you have such incredible patriotism.
brendan schaub
I mean, they jump on support like no other.
bryan callen
There are more Irish war heroes in this country of Irish descent than any other nationality.
Fucking rough people, man.
brendan schaub
Rough people.
I'll tell you what, man.
You know what the only thing I don't like about Conor?
The tiger tattoo on those beautiful abs.
unidentified
I agree with you.
brendan schaub
It drives me nuts.
And it's so goddamn good, it looks like a hologram.
It has to look like a tiger if you can get that tattoo.
It can't look like a real tiger.
It has to look like a sailor tattoo.
unidentified
I'm rooting for this guy.
Do you know why?
Because my people and his people, we built the railroads in this country.
bryan callen
Well, the Chinese did, not the Koreans.
So I want you to...
unidentified
Listen to how many Irish fans are.
brendan schaub
You're getting booed and you're fighting in Vegas.
Listen to them.
unidentified
Ole, ole.
That's amazing.
Oh, here we go.
American as fuck!
brendan schaub
What?
Oh, shit!
Who is this?
bryan callen
Who is that?
unidentified
Aaron Lewis, the singer from Stained.
Oh.
He does country music now.
Wow, he's really aged.
He's a country singer now?
brendan schaub
The guy from Stained?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I have no idea.
Dude, have you guys ever seen a UFC like this?
bryan callen
No, I haven't.
brendan schaub
UFC went to another level.
unidentified
Oh my god.
brendan schaub
They just powered up, son.
bryan callen
Everybody's got neck tattoos and tats.
I gotta start doing that.
brendan schaub
No, sir, you don't need a tattoo.
Unless you get a fine kid tattoo.
Hey, if we reach...
If we reach...
bryan callen
10 million?
brendan schaub
I was gonna say 15 million.
Let's go 10 million.
If we reach 10 million downloads in one month...
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
We're at 2 million now, and we're growing.
So if we reach 10 million, you'll get a tattoo?
bryan callen
I may get a tattoo.
brendan schaub
No, no, no.
You gotta agree to it right now.
Shake on it.
10 million.
unidentified
Listeners.
bryan callen
Holy fuck.
brendan schaub
You get a Master Kim tattoo.
You get a Master Kim tattoo?
bryan callen
I'll definitely get a Fighter and the Kid tattoo.
brendan schaub
Okay.
bryan callen
There's no question about that.
brendan schaub
You get an F&K? We get matching F&K tattoos?
bryan callen
That's a good call.
brendan schaub
At 10 million?
unidentified
Yep.
brendan schaub
Give it up.
bryan callen
I like it, brother.
brendan schaub
This is on tape, bro.
bryan callen
It's all right.
We're building it.
When I say I'll do it, I'll do it.
unidentified
I have a show.
I have a show to do.
bryan callen
By the way, by the way, here we go.
Here we go.
brendan schaub
Can I cancel, bro?
bryan callen
Here we go.
It comes down to these moments, man.
unidentified
1045, okay.
bryan callen
It comes down to these moments.
brendan schaub
Oh, no, you're fine.
You're fine.
unidentified
I'll get that.
brendan schaub
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
bryan callen
They're throwing flags down there.
Come on.
unidentified
Don't throw an Irish flag at I got space.
bryan callen
Careful now.
Careful, boys.
brendan schaub
I would say just from walkouts, listen, no one's more American than I am.
I'm American as fuck.
I hate ISIS as much as the next guy.
However, if we're talking walkouts, Connor won this battle.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Sinead O'Connor, I was crunk for.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I had chills.
I felt like crying.
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I'm not from Ireland.
I've never been there.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
That's the effect this guy has on me.
bryan callen
It's crazy.
unidentified
Is he honeydicking me?
bryan callen
Is he honeydicking me?
Dude, I'm honeydicked all the way!
unidentified
I'm American!
I know!
I love American!
bryan callen
I'm Irish tonight!
Me too!
I'm Irish tonight!
I can't help it!
unidentified
What does honeydick mean?
I'm Irish!
bryan callen
Like he's tricking us!
unidentified
It's almost like a trance!
bryan callen
Tonight, I'm Irish.
Tonight is for the Irish.
brendan schaub
If I got a text from Rogan and said, hey, listen, Connor needs a back rep.
He needs you to fly to Vegas.
I would probably go.
He's probably the only guy in the world to fly to.
bryan callen
I'm here if you need, if his hands get tired.
brendan schaub
I brought a backup just in case I can't go the full six hours that you need.
bryan callen
And I'm just standing there smiling.
brendan schaub
And you're behind, rubbing your hands and warming them up.
bryan callen
A sad 48-year-old dying just to touch his shoulders.
brendan schaub
Jacking off in the corner.
bryan callen
Look at this.
Let's go, boys!
This is war.
Not war, I know you hate when I say that.
brendan schaub
I hate when you say that.
bryan callen
Alright, but this is real?
This is pretty goddamn real, right?
brendan schaub
This is a fight.
No one's dying.
It's not war.
bryan callen
It's nothing even close to war.
brendan schaub
It's a fight.
bryan callen
But for me, I just get...
I'm very nervous!
brendan schaub
I just want it to live up to the hype.
What I don't want to have happen is Connor get knocked out early.
I just want a good fight.
bryan callen
God, me neither.
Man!
brendan schaub
What a fucking experience!
unidentified
I mean...
bryan callen
Now, Connor's hair looks not as crunked.
brendan schaub
What do you mean?
bryan callen
I just feel like he's...
brendan schaub
What do you mean, crunk?
bryan callen
I don't know.
brendan schaub
Do you know what crunk means?
unidentified
Nope.
bryan callen
I just thought...
I wanted him to be a little more slicked up.
A little bit more...
brendan schaub
A little better looking?
bryan callen
I don't know, just something...
brendan schaub
It's good time.
You're not playing grab-ass anymore.
bryan callen
No.
Now, here it is.
unidentified
Connor looks much better now than the weigh-ins.
brendan schaub
He looks better, right?
When we were on the Joe Rogan experience, Brian Callahan, Joe was talking about IVs.
We didn't know.
They actually can use IVs.
There's such a backlash of fighters.
They can use IVs for this one.
Ooh, look at him talking shit.
unidentified
Holy shit!
brendan schaub
He walks the walk!
bryan callen
Dude, he walks the walk!
Don't you understand?
He walks the walk?
unidentified
Oh my god.
He got pushed to October right now.
brendan schaub
October right now.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they should just get rid of that altogether.
bryan callen
What's that?
brendan schaub
It's fucking dangerous.
Not allowing IVs.
bryan callen
I agree.
brendan schaub
Look at that reach, Calen.
bryan callen
I agree.
brendan schaub
You won't shut up about...
bryan callen
Well, he's got a huge reach advantage, and there are a couple of things to keep in mind here that I believe, I believe, that his...
Takedown defense is excellent, but he's not been working on it the way he probably should have because he didn't know he was going to be fighting Chad Mendes.
brendan schaub
What were you going to say?
unidentified
Why would they be opposed to IVs after the weigh-in?
brendan schaub
Because of blood doping.
bryan callen
Yeah, the plastic's in the bag.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
brendan schaub
But I think it's more dangerous.
You take IVs away, it's more dangerous than the fighters.
unidentified
Yeah, it's like you have to rehydrate quickly.
bryan callen
Let guys blood dope.
It's not as dangerous.
I don't know.
I don't want to get into it.
brendan schaub
The more important issue is let them be healthier when they cut weight, because guys are always going to cut weight.
Let's see, blood doping or guys not cutting weight correctly, come knock on getting shitty performances, I'll take my chances, most guys are blood doping.
You're talking about the exception that blood dopes.
For sure, relax, Vada, Vada, whatever the fuck your name is.
100% relax.
unidentified
Herb Dean, best in the biz, him and McCarthy.
Could you just take Aretha Poetan without actually transfusing the blood?
brendan schaub
I don't know what you're talking about.
unidentified
You're saying put it through your PO? No, no, no.
Like EPO is what causes more production of red blood cells, right?
Is there like a synthetic type of EPO versus trying to actually transfuse it?
I think there is.
brendan schaub
I think there actually is a synthetic form of EPO. I'll call Lance Armstrong up real quick.
I'm sure he knows it.
bryan callen
Dude, do you understand what we're about to watch?
In some ways, the most anticipated fight in UFC history here.
brendan schaub
I mean, biggest fight ever in this division.
bryan callen
Look at Conor McGregor.
He really believes destiny is on his side.
brendan schaub
That's why he's so good, man.
Because what he says, he actually believes.
That's why we're on board.
Look at him.
It's like he's fighting Ireland.
You know they're going to Dublin next year.
They announced it.
You don't think he's fucking headlining that card?
What poor soul's gonna fight him in Dublin?
Who the fuck has to fight him?
Nope, he's still headlining.
bryan callen
What is he doing now?
What is this?
What is he doing here?
brendan schaub
That tiger tattoo really bothers me.
You know what else bothers me?
It's the grass on the sides.
Why would we put grass on the sides?
The grass on the side really bothers me.
I love the tattoo on the chest, on the arms.
bryan callen
He looks strong.
He sucked weight.
brendan schaub
Look at him.
Look at him.
He's insane.
Oh my god.
Look at him.
unidentified
Dude.
brendan schaub
We've never had anyone like this.
How comfortable is this guy in there?
bryan callen
It's where he belongs, Brendan.
brendan schaub
Now you're dealing with a one percenter here.
Oh, you're talking about the number one 145-er in the world?
bryan callen
Yeah, it's Chad Mendes.
In that weight class!
brendan schaub
Super beast.
bryan callen
In that weight class!
brendan schaub
Did you see Uriah Faber and Conor get into it?
unidentified
Yeah, I saw it on Embedded.
brendan schaub
Yeah, at the weigh-ins, right before the weigh-ins.
Conor and Uriah were walking down the hall, and Uriah went to say congratulations.
And then something happened where Conor acted like he was wrestling him, and then Uriah was messing around, and Conor wasn't messing around.
And they had to separate the two of them.
unidentified
I thought he was just joking at first, but then I realized it was real.
brendan schaub
Look at him talking shit.
bryan callen
Security.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what though.
Chad's never fought a monster.
Look at him.
bryan callen
It's go time!
brendan schaub
Look at him!
bryan callen
It's go time.
brendan schaub
Look at him talking shit.
unidentified
Oh, I love Chad.
brendan schaub
Look at him talking shit.
I've never seen this.
Of this caliber of fight.
bryan callen
Fighting a beast, dude!
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
For sure don't get knocked out in 15 seconds.
Look at him.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
What is he doing?
bryan callen
Oh, shit.
unidentified
That was amazing.
brendan schaub
Oh, shit.
Well, that's a bad mistake.
unidentified
Don't do that.
brendan schaub
What's the question we all had?
Will he get taken down?
unidentified
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Holy shit.
We got our...
Well, okay.
unidentified
Chad is an elite...
brendan schaub
Oh, he defended one.
unidentified
Elite wrestler.
Ha!
Oh my god.
bryan callen
Jesus.
brendan schaub
Real quick.
Oh, he got hit.
The thing about Connors, in his fights, he does get hit, man.
bryan callen
Yes, he does.
brendan schaub
But if you get hit by Chad, you're not going to stick around very long.
bryan callen
Shit.
unidentified
How's Chad's cardio, given that he hasn't had a long camp?
brendan schaub
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
I don't know if Chad was training before this.
bryan callen
I'm nervous.
unidentified
Holy fuck!
What happened?
Why did baby Jesus happen?
I don't know.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
That scared me.
brendan schaub
I thought the feed crashed because Connor's breaking records.
bryan callen
Connor's just kicking at him.
brendan schaub
I almost had a heart attack.
bryan callen
Look at Connor talking.
brendan schaub
I almost had a heart attack, Jimmy.
unidentified
Oh!
bryan callen
Jesus Christ.
brendan schaub
Bro, the way he's acting.
bryan callen
What is going on here?
unidentified
Nice, nice, nice.
brendan schaub
Dude, you know what Chad can't do?
Get into this game.
What Chad can't do is get into the corner, having fun, smiling, eating shots.
unidentified
Look at this!
bryan callen
Oh my god.
God damn it, I'm so nervous!
unidentified
I love this guy so much.
bryan callen
He's back kicking him!
unidentified
Come on, Chad.
brendan schaub
Holy shit, bro.
unidentified
He can't, you're right.
bryan callen
He's standing with his hands down!
brendan schaub
Dude, Chad looks intimidated.
bryan callen
Dude, he's dealing with a guy who hits much harder than you understand.
You don't understand what he's doing.
brendan schaub
Dude, why is Chad smiling?
unidentified
Look at this!
brendan schaub
Just Chad trying to take him down.
bryan callen
You're talking about the European champion as a boxer.
He's a fucking accurate boxer.
I told you.
unidentified
And he has like an 8-inch reach advantage.
brendan schaub
He just got hit.
bryan callen
Doesn't matter.
unidentified
He's still talking.
brendan schaub
Dude, I'm telling you it's going to matter.
bryan callen
You can't get hit like that.
I agree with you.
I agree with you.
I'm nervous.
brendan schaub
It's the Anderson Silva thing where we think guys are untouchable.
I'm telling you, at this point, you can't do that.
bryan callen
I agree.
unidentified
Not with Chad Mendes.
No.
bryan callen
I know, but...
brendan schaub
First of all, first of all, I've never seen anything like this.
If Conor wins this fight...
bryan callen
Dude, I'm freaking out.
brendan schaub
Look at this, man.
You know the pressure on this guy and he's acting like this?
We've never seen anything in sports like this.
Ever.
Any professional league.
I'm telling you, though, he keeps getting hit like that.
It's not going to be funny.
unidentified
Oh, keep your hands up, Chad.
brendan schaub
You're talking about a high-level wrestler.
unidentified
Nice!
Good job, Chad.
brendan schaub
Two-time All-American.
Two-time All-American.
unidentified
I just want a good exchange.
I don't want it to be one-sided.
I don't even care if Conor wins or...
I need...
brendan schaub
What you don't want to have happen is this for five rounds.
unidentified
No.
brendan schaub
This magnitude of a fight.
unidentified
He needs to work if he's going to take him down.
brendan schaub
Conor's good at getting back to his feet, though.
unidentified
He is.
He's crumbling up.
brendan schaub
Oh, shit.
unidentified
He might eat a few on his way up, though.
He's bleeding.
brendan schaub
He's never been hit by a guy like Chad Mendes.
He's bleeding a little bit.
You know what?
Oh, shit!
I told you my prediction.
Fake takedown to a huge overhand right knocks Connor out.
unidentified
But I'm going for Connor.
He's breathing with his mouth open already.
bryan callen
It doesn't look good for Connor, though.
This is a very different thing.
unidentified
He got really pale all of a sudden.
brendan schaub
You're jumping ship already, Callan?
bryan callen
No, I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm just nervous.
brendan schaub
What the fuck?
bryan callen
I'm nervous.
I'm nervous.
unidentified
Oh.
bryan callen
He's hitting.
Chad can take shots, though.
Look at that body shots!
unidentified
Boob.
bryan callen
God, Connor gets his hands down.
brendan schaub
Both of them are eating sheriffs, man.
unidentified
Both were their hands down.
Yeah, I think they're both eating it.
It's crazy.
Oh!
Oh!
bryan callen
It's explosive, Chad.
Man, this is so explosive.
unidentified
I think if it goes to later rounds, though, it's going to be intense.
brendan schaub
There's that fake shot.
There's that fake shot body shot, son.
bryan callen
He's fixing his hair.
brendan schaub
I don't want to be right.
bryan callen
He's so crazy fixing his hair.
unidentified
Oh!
You know what?
brendan schaub
Chad looks a little tired.
unidentified
Nice.
brendan schaub
Well, if there's any question to Connor's takedown defense, it's not great.
bryan callen
That's not good.
brendan schaub
And now he's getting the mount and side control.
This is trouble.
unidentified
Scramble up.
brendan schaub
Super trouble.
bryan callen
This is Connor's weakness.
brendan schaub
Well, this is why you don't toss...
bryan callen
How much time?
A minute left?
brendan schaub
This is why you don't toss some Chad Mendes on 12 days notice.
bryan callen
And also, he's being...
unidentified
And a guy like Chad, he trains all year, right?
brendan schaub
That's the question.
No, when we talked to URI, he said the best thing about Chad is he can get away from the game and take breaks and reset.
So I don't know if he's taking a break because he wasn't supposed to fight, right?
bryan callen
Brandon, what's more exhausting, holding the guy down or being on the ground like this?
brendan schaub
Being on the ground, 100%.
Your heart rate's going like crazy.
unidentified
But I read that he benefits from a shorter camp too.
brendan schaub
Chad does, yeah.
bryan callen
But 12 days is in a camp, right?
brendan schaub
It's not a week, really.
unidentified
Yeah, and plus the week leading into it, they're doing a lot of press and all of that.
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
brendan schaub
But you gotta think how much press Conor did.
Think how much press Conor did for these fights.
You're talking about he was doing interviews non-stop.
unidentified
He had a notorious series on fuck sports.
brendan schaub
So this is one round of Chad.
This could happen every round, man.
unidentified
If he keeps taking him down, that's going to happen every round.
brendan schaub
Look at this elbow.
unidentified
Boom!
bryan callen
It's not good.
brendan schaub
Oh, man.
bryan callen
Conor McGregor doesn't have an answer for that wrestling.
I know.
I know!
Ay-yi-yi!
Hold on.
brendan schaub
I don't want to see him lose with all this shit.
He had Shanae O'Connor fucking sing him out.
unidentified
That might have been a bad omen.
brendan schaub
I feel sick.
I feel sick.
I love Chad.
So if Chad wins, I'm not going to be sad.
I'm just saying, man.
You have the whole fucking country behind you.
You have the whole UFC behind you.
And they give you the worst matchup possible on 12 days notice.
Does that sound like a smart business decision?
unidentified
Do you think that was worse for him, right?
In terms of...
bryan callen
What do you do when you say you're going to fight a giant fucking killer wrestler?
brendan schaub
On 12 days?
Oh, you're supposed to fight a Muay Thai guy?
Real quick.
Hey, we have the worst possible matchup for you.
Here you go.
You still want Sine O'Connor singing out?
No pressure.
unidentified
Did he have to bring in like a wrestling training partner?
brendan schaub
No, it's too late.
It's too late in 12 days.
You see him pointing?
All this stuff is fun if you win.
unidentified
He shouldn't be doing this, man.
brendan schaub
All this stuff is cool if you win.
unidentified
Focus.
brendan schaub
As soon as you lose, it's no...
No, this is bigger than Nick Diaz.
bryan callen
I know, I know, I know.
brendan schaub
Watch it.
bryan callen
He cannot get taken down, though.
brendan schaub
No, he can.
He can.
The thing is, can Chad keep this up for 25 minutes?
Great sprawl.
bryan callen
Great sprawl.
brendan schaub
Wish he had some jiu-jitsu there.
bryan callen
He's got his hands down, Brennan.
brendan schaub
He's so much longer, though.
He eats these kicks.
Chad's going to be tough to knock out.
bryan callen
I don't know, though.
unidentified
What?
Oh, shit.
brendan schaub
He's letting it go now, though.
He's letting those shots go.
unidentified
Oh, God, shit.
bryan callen
Shit, dude.
brendan schaub
His wrestling is non-existent.
That's exactly what we were worried about.
Every Conor McGregor fan goes, yeah, if you give him a wrestler, his wrestling is good enough.
Well, when you're talking about top of the food chain, Chad Mendes.
bryan callen
You can't get him off you.
brendan schaub
It's going to be tough, man.
Yeah.
And especially as the fight goes on.
Because, like, Dennis Seaver, listen, he's not Chad Mendes.
He's not going to hold you down.
Conor McGregor's popped up before.
You're talking about a Chad fucking Mendes with elbows for days.
And as the rounds go on, it's going to be tough for him to stand up.
So do we get this for 25 minutes?
Is this what you want on the biggest fight ever?
bryan callen
No, I don't.
I don't.
I don't.
brendan schaub
It's frustrating, man.
bryan callen
I know.
brendan schaub
I think it was poorly planned.
bryan callen
And I don't want to see him lose, get grounded down this way.
Hard to deal with that.
brendan schaub
I mean, we got t-shirt sales on it.
That's a lot of money, my man.
And you're getting a tattoo as soon as we get 10 million downloads.
unidentified
Yeah, I know.
brendan schaub
Now, even if people hate us, they're going to listen to see you get a tattoo.
bryan callen
I'll get sick if he loses.
brendan schaub
He's going to be great.
bryan callen
I don't know why.
unidentified
But he's not an American, man.
You should be rooting for the Americans.
brendan schaub
I know, I know, but...
unidentified
What the fuck is wrong with you two?
I know.
brendan schaub
McGregor honeydicked us into this whole thing.
unidentified
I've been listening to you guys for 20 minutes.
No, fuck that.
bryan callen
This is his weakness.
Right, baby?
unidentified
Mendes.
bryan callen
Fighting is a great equalizer.
You can't fake fighting.
unidentified
I've been for Mendes.
Yeah, yeah.
bryan callen
He's a way better striker.
unidentified
But that's just because I think that Mendes is a more tested fighter, in my opinion.
Yeah.
brendan schaub
Well, you're 100% correct.
That's why I wouldn't have gave him Mendes a 12-day notice.
unidentified
God damn it.
brendan schaub
You've ruined it for me!
The biggest star ever, potentially the biggest star ever in UFC history.
Now the entire world's tuned in to watch him win, and now you're getting this.
bryan callen
All he can do is hold guard here, right?
Let's stand him up.
Can you stand him up?
brendan schaub
No, you can't, Brian, because he's landing huge elbows and controlling the fight.
You can stand him up if you're Conor McGregor's fucking fan.
unidentified
Can you do that?
bryan callen
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Ooh, those are good elbows.
He's saying back of the head, but it really wasn't.
It's not as a top of the head, right?
I think he's complaining about one of those hits.
You can do that.
See how he's covering his mouth?
bryan callen
Yep, so he can't breathe.
brendan schaub
First of all, you want to talk about a gas tank.
When you're a wrestler and you're 145 pounds, you really don't get tired when your background's wrestling.
bryan callen
No, you don't.
brendan schaub
So that factor.
The factor of this is, is Conor McGregor, this is taking away his power, his gas tank, so the later the rounds go, the worse it is.
If you can't get up in the first and second round, you're sure as fuck not getting up in the fourth and fifth.
bryan callen
We've got a minute and 44 to go.
I don't know, Chad Mendes is...
unidentified
He's doing work.
It's going to look like this for the rest of the round.
brendan schaub
Oh, and by the way, if you can't stop a takedown in the first and second round, the third, fourth, and fifth, the takedowns get way easier.
bryan callen
Yeah, true.
unidentified
You're right.
brendan schaub
God damn it!
unidentified
Why would you do this to my boy?
brendan schaub
You still owe me t-shirt sales though, Cal.
I'm sorry.
bryan callen
I have to do that too.
I have to stick to that.
brendan schaub
What?
bryan callen
He's not doing a lot of damage on the ground.
brendan schaub
He is.
Look at his fucking face.
Those elbows are doing work.
And guess what?
unidentified
This is using all of Connor's energy.
brendan schaub
This is what happens.
You train for a Muay Thai guy, and then they throw you the gnarliest fucking matchup on 12 days notice.
bryan callen
Yeah, it was dumb.
It was dumb.
brendan schaub
Yeah, you just ruined your fucking golden boy.
And my golden boy!
My golden boy!
What if I started crying?
I feel like crying.
Even though I'm gonna win the bet and my prediction, I don't want to be right.
unidentified
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
brendan schaub
Hey, real quick, Team Alpha Male, they get a hold of your neck.
You're in trouble.
unidentified
This is embarrassing.
brendan schaub
Don't get some...
Oh shit, he gotta hold his neck.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
Go, son!
Yeah, son!
There we go.
brendan schaub
He's tired now.
bryan callen
Look at this.
brendan schaub
I think Chad's tired too though.
unidentified
Chad is very tired.
Oh!
Back up, Chad!
Jesus, Brennan!
No!
bryan callen
No!
unidentified
Bro!
Oh, there we go.
Back up, Chad.
Don't fall for it, buddy.
brendan schaub
Oh, Chad's tired.
Chad's tired.
unidentified
Oh my god, this is a great fight.
Chad's tired.
brendan schaub
This is what happens when you take a final 12-day notice.
unidentified
Yeah.
Shit!
Oh, shit, son!
Dude, go!
Shit!
brendan schaub
Chad's exhausted!
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
Oh, shit!
unidentified
He won!
bryan callen
Dude, I gotta get all the shirts down!
unidentified
I'm sorry!
In the second round!
Holy shit!
In the second fucking round!
brendan schaub
Holy shit!
unidentified
Oh my god!
Oh my god!
Connor McGregor!
What happened?
Oh my god!
Ladies and gentlemen, the biggest star in the UFC has just been born!
bryan callen
Turn this up!
Turn this up!
unidentified
What happened?
Oh my god!
He hits too hard, dude!
bryan callen
And he hits too hard!
He's a champion, bro.
He's a champion.
He's a champion.
unidentified
In the second fucking round!
But good lesson learned for him, I think, for Conor.
I'm telling you, can I be honest?
bryan callen
Listen, Brendan, I re-watched the Chad Mendes Aldo fight at the two, and what I saw was him standing in front of him the whole time, and I was like, no way.
Look at him.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he does eat shots.
bryan callen
Look at him.
unidentified
Holy shit.
Now he's crying.
brendan schaub
Who's the lady with the badge?
unidentified
Not his wife.
brendan schaub
Nope.
bryan callen
Dude, he did it.
He did it.
brendan schaub
That's insane.
bryan callen
He thought he was out too.
He's such a badass.
He's such a badass.
brendan schaub
The reason you gotta like this guy is because he's a real dude.
You know what I'm saying?
A real guy.
unidentified
True drama.
bryan callen
Look at this now.
Look at this.
unidentified
Look at this.
brendan schaub
Is he gonna come over and hug him?
Yeah, watch.
He's gonna be grateful to him too.
He's great.
Greatest UFC card in history.
bryan callen
Look at this.
unidentified
Look at this.
This is why you love Conor.
brendan schaub
You don't want a guy who won't shake your hand or he's gonna talk shit after this.
There's respect.
That's the sport.
bryan callen
What a fucking night!
Greatest UFC night ever!
There's this girl, dude.
He proved himself to be true greatness.
brendan schaub
That's your biggest champion of all time.
Well, he's an interim champion.
He still has to be in all of us.
bryan callen
My lord!
My lord!
unidentified
How?
The UFC is breathing a sigh of relief.
bryan callen
Dude, look at this.
unidentified
Dana gave him a new kit, a gold kit.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he gave him the gold kit right away.
bryan callen
Look at Brennan.
Look at, look at, look at, look at this.
brendan schaub
That's what they're known for.
He spun out of it.
Ooh, that looked like it hurt his neck.
unidentified
I feel like that's where, that's what caused him to gas right there.
bryan callen
Still here.
A fighter.
My lord, catch him with these shots.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, I'll never doubt Conor again ever in my life.
bryan callen
Look at this.
Jose Aldo's got to be worried.
unidentified
Oh!
brendan schaub
He's the hardest hitter at 145, right?
bryan callen
I told you, he's the hardest hitter, period.
brendan schaub
You see what he does to do?
He puts guys to sleep, dude.
bryan callen
You can't deal with those kinds of punches.
brendan schaub
You sure as fuck can't sit there and eat, though.
unidentified
Matt Mendes was completely open.
brendan schaub
Yeah, he just ate him.
unidentified
It's almost as if he got up and just completely...
bryan callen
Oh, my lord, dude.
unidentified
He asked.
bryan callen
My lord.
unidentified
Yeah.
I feel like if it had gone past three that Conor would have won anyways, just gone on gas a lot.
bryan callen
Oh my god!
brendan schaub
Insane.
Best UFC fight card ever.
unidentified
Conor!
We're not worthy!
We're not worthy!
bryan callen
You know I can't take the money for this year.
brendan schaub
We're not worthy!
I'm going to give you the money.
I'm going to give you all the money.
We are releasing Turbo Slut shirts.
unidentified
How crazy!
Is this from Asa?
brendan schaub
What?
unidentified
From Asa Akira?
bryan callen
Yes.
unidentified
Oh, she's a friend of ours.
brendan schaub
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
Very good friend of ours.
bryan callen
I love Asa.
unidentified
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
brendan schaub
I'd like her to be a friend of mine.
bryan callen
She's the coolest chick ever.
unidentified
We love her.
brendan schaub
No, she's been out on the show.
She's great.
No, Turbo Slut.
Callan started.
We started talking about the show.
And then people went Turbo Slut.
Shirt, so we're making Turbo Sled shirts.
bryan callen
That's his mom!
unidentified
That's his mom!
brendan schaub
This was for an intern fight.
Is that his mom?
unidentified
I might have just gotten honeydicked too then.
brendan schaub
I'm telling you!
unidentified
Because if his mom comes up...
brendan schaub
Connor, honeydiction to be in a superman.
bryan callen
How overwhelming for Connor.
brendan schaub
I'll tell you what, this motherfucker's so good, I might buy a Reebok Kick Connor shirt.
bryan callen
And I fucking hate those things.
Can I be honest with you, Brandon?
Brandon, we're Team Connor.
unidentified
Give it up!
brendan schaub
Come on, bro.
unidentified
We're not worthy!
We're not worthy!
bryan callen
Give me my fucking money.
brendan schaub
I'm gonna give you your money.
You're gonna get the Turbo Sled sales.
unidentified
This is the craziest shit.
brendan schaub
What's he gonna say?
Of an entire nation.
unidentified
I'm blown away.
I've never seen anything lacking in my life.
Before we even talk about the fight, please tell me what that's like.
I'm absolutely blown away by the support.
I can't put into words how grateful I am for everyone to support me and follow me.
It's why...
It's why I still...
I still stayed in a show over here.
So much went on during the build-up of this.
So much media obligation.
I travelled around the world twice and done two things.
One in case it was Jose and one in case it was Chad.
brendan schaub
It's too much, man.
They did too much with him It's emotional man I'm like emotionally invested.
Me too.
I've never been emotionally invested in a fight of a guy who...
bryan callen
God, it's like...
That's his dad and mom right there.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
His mom's not bad looking.
Right?
For an older lady?
He's with me.
unidentified
Just saying, not bad.
brendan schaub
Pops suited up.
unidentified
Pops is pretty hot too.
Look at Gunner Nelson.
brendan schaub
It's true.
He's true.
He proved me wrong.
Prove me wrong.
I'll eat my words.
Connor's my favorite fighter.
Hands down.
I'm in.
unidentified
Wow.
How do you think Aldo feels about this, watching?
Well, Aldo went toe-to-toe with Chad, right?
brendan schaub
Grant is Chad on a full camp, but Aldo went toe-to-toe in a controversial fight.
bryan callen
It makes you want to cry.
unidentified
Right?
bryan callen
Like, I'm emotional.
Like, I have a lump in my throat.
brendan schaub
Please start crying.
bryan callen
I should.
unidentified
That was a fight of the year, right?
With Chad and Aldo?
brendan schaub
Yeah, part two.
Part two in Brazil.
bryan callen
Dude, this guy did it all.
It's greatness.
brendan schaub
It's fucking greatness.
We're witnessing greatness.
Pure greatness.
That's why I wanted to win.
bryan callen
Me too.
unidentified
All fucking day, Joe.
bryan callen
I swear to God I can go all fucking day.
brendan schaub
I feel like Joe got a little emotional.
bryan callen
Who wouldn't?
unidentified
Amazing.
He's the best.
brendan schaub
Let's hear what he says here.
Biggest fight ever.
Ever.
unidentified
I heard that.
brendan schaub
What did I tell you, Calum, coming into this fight?
I heard McGregor's knee is fucked.
I didn't want to say anything because I don't want to be a spoiler.
I heard his knee is jacked.
Where he should have pulled out of the fight.
bryan callen
His day will come.
brendan schaub
But he stayed and fought.
unidentified
You mean like ligament?
brendan schaub
Ligament.
MCL. MCL. Wow, really?
I heard he has a torn MCL. I heard he has to have surgery right after this.
That's how bad it is.
Dude still comes to fight.
unidentified
I wouldn't want...
brendan schaub
That's what a little birdie told me.
I don't know if that's official, so that's why I was picking Chad, because I figured if he's hurt, wrestler, it's trouble.
bryan callen
Jesus.
unidentified
Guys, thanks for having me on.
bryan callen
Hold on, let me hear this.
unidentified
Okay.
bryan callen
You were awesome.
Who's your girl?
brendan schaub
It's tough for Chad, man.
Poor dude.
unidentified
What was surprising to you?
Yeah, man.
I mean, first off, I want to thank Connor for even accepting him on two weeks.
I mean, he was training for Aldo that entire time.
I mean, that's a completely matchup, completely different matchup for him.
And I mean, the guy's tough.
I mean, hands down, the guy's got the talk to back it up.
And, you know, what's awesome is these guys, these Irish guys, you guys are crazy.
I mean, I wish we had so much support like this with everyone here.
It's just...
brendan schaub
Crazy.
unidentified
You guys show so much support for your athletes.
You know, this is just completely awesome for me.
This is the biggest fight in UFC history.
brendan schaub
What a stud to step up on 12 days notice.
bryan callen
Yeah, he's a real man.
He has nothing.
He's awesome.
brendan schaub
No, he has nothing to lose here.
unidentified
This was obviously a huge opportunity for you, but taking a fight like this where you didn't have a full camp, are there any regrets right now in your mind?
brendan schaub
Oh, look at Frankie trying to get involved.
unidentified
You know, I don't have any regrets.
brendan schaub
Don't ruin his moment, Frankie.
Jose's obviously next.
unidentified
That's awesome, man.
brendan schaub
That's how it should be.
How about the ladies of Conor McGregor in the back?
Huh?
Shit, that guy is winning in life.
Wow!
What is going on?
We just witnessed greatness, people.
That's like watching Bruce Lee actually fight.
You're welcome, but he's Irish.
You're welcome.
bryan callen
What an amazing night, ladies and gentlemen.
brendan schaub
Phenomenal.
bryan callen
Fight companion.
brendan schaub
Look at Freddie.
Look at Frankie.
Oh, he's saying congrats.
Or he's saying, let's do this.
Either way, Jose Aldo 100% is next.
unidentified
When's that happening?
brendan schaub
I mean, what a fucking night.
It depends.
From what I heard with rumors with Conor and his knee, if he has surgery, you're looking at a little bit of a layoff.
unidentified
Yeah, I think October would be too soon.
brendan schaub
Yeah.
I know that's what Jose wanted was October.
bryan callen
God, it was incredible.
brendan schaub
Doesn't get bigger than Conor McGregor.
unidentified
I really thank you for the opportunity and the growth, and I've learned so much about it.
bryan callen
Bobby Lee, you were amazing.
brendan schaub
You have a different outlook on fighting now?
unidentified
I do.
I try to watch fights with him at home, but I always end up watching alone.
brendan schaub
Well, you can call me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry about it.
I'm sorry, bro.
I know you don't like that, but I figured...
unidentified
We can make it our new couple activities.
No!
No!
Okay?
So I want to say thank you for having me here.
brendan schaub
Where can people find you, brother?
unidentified
Bobby Lee Live on Twitter and Instagram.
brendan schaub
Where's your next spot?
You're on the road soon?
unidentified
I'm at the Comedy Store, and the next week, where am I playing, baby?
You are in Lexington, Kentucky.
Lexington, Kentucky.
brendan schaub
Beautiful Kentucky.
unidentified
So come see me in Kentucky.
B, it was really good to see you.
bryan callen
Harvey Lee, one of the funniest people on the planet.
unidentified
Thank you so much for having me on.
bryan callen
And you're going to be on the fight on the kid soon.
unidentified
Soon.
I cannot wait.
bryan callen
And your wonderful girlfriend.
unidentified
Thank you.
bryan callen
Kalilah.
unidentified
Kalilah, get in the fucking car.
bryan callen
Hey, man, you're so aggressive.
brendan schaub
Get the fuck out of here.
bryan callen
Look at Conor McGregor.
brendan schaub
We're going to see her again.
unidentified
The highlight of his life.
bryan callen
Just look at him.
unidentified
Thank you, you guys.
It was a pleasure.
brendan schaub
You guys killed it.
bryan callen
You guys killed it.
You do?
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
Go kill it.
unidentified
Hey, man.
Hey.
Thank you, guys.
brendan schaub
We'll go, like, five more.
bryan callen
That was awesome.
brendan schaub
Right?
Yeah, yeah.
See ya.
You killed it.
You guys are great.
bryan callen
You guys are great, man.
brendan schaub
Bobby Lee and his smoke show girlfriend who knew a shitload about the UFC. She sure did.
Bobby faded on us.
Bobby didn't say a word the last two hours.
He didn't say a word.
That was tough on him.
bryan callen
Dude, that was so unbelievable.
brendan schaub
Greatest fight in UFC history?
bryan callen
Certainly the most exciting.
I mean, I just don't know what to say about it.
brendan schaub
I've never seen anything like that.
bryan callen
Conor McGregor just keeps backing it up and now backed it up in the second round with one of the baddest dudes.
brendan schaub
Tell you what, Callan, we had a bad t-shirt, July t-shirt sales.
unidentified
So you're going to get the turbo sled sales.
bryan callen
Well, I'm going to get all the t-shirt sales.
And it's a lot of money.
brendan schaub
We're only releasing one shirt in July.
bryan callen
Just one shirt?
unidentified
Just one.
brendan schaub
But Turbo Slet.
So we have Turbo Slet in black and gold coming out.
bryan callen
Yeah, I like that shirt.
brendan schaub
And gray and black.
I can't believe we were making Turbo Slet shirt.
I thought it was a horrible idea.
But when Rogan blasts it out, and we have all these comments, then Asa Kara wants one.
bryan callen
We'll get Asa to wear one.
It'll be perfect.
brendan schaub
You're not mad at this Joe Rogan shirt.
My boy Jamie hooked me up.
bryan callen
Dude, I am fucking blown away.
Look at that.
brendan schaub
Look at that.
Killers Row.
bryan callen
Yeah, it's Killers Row.
brendan schaub
You got Ricardo Lamas just hanging in the back there.
Good luck beating Frank Yeager, everybody.
bryan callen
Yeah.
The whole thing is a disaster.
brendan schaub
Tell you what, dog.
Ordered my Conor McGregor Reebok kit as we're on air here.
That should be coming in the mail.
I am a fan.
This whole event tonight, I've never seen anything like it.
From the weigh-ins to the hype.
This is the first fight where, when I was driving down here to Rogan Studio, I felt like everyone was rushing home to watch this fight.
I've never seen that before.
bryan callen
Was that Frankie Edgar fighting Robbie Lawler?
brendan schaub
No, that's BJ Penn, Brian.
Anyways, let's wrap up the night, though.
bryan callen
No, I think it was...
unidentified
I think Frankie Edgar fought Robbie Lawler.
brendan schaub
No, he didn't.
That's BJ Penn.
Does someone have a button so I can slap the shit out of Callan?
God damn it.
unidentified
Why would he fight Robbie Lawler in the UFC? I don't know.
bryan callen
It looked like it was him.
brendan schaub
Callan, let's wrap the show up, my man.
unidentified
Sorry, buddy.
Sorry.
bryan callen
For me, most exciting night of the fight.
brendan schaub
I've never seen a UFC event like this, ever.
Ever.
From the singing, from the hype, from Conor McGregor being down and out.
And now, guess what this sets up?
Jose Aldo, Conor.
What's the chances they do that in Ireland?
bryan callen
Biggest thing ever.
brendan schaub
Hands down, biggest fight of all time.
You tell Conor was worn out.
It's too much media.
Hey, UFC, don't make him do that much media.
I'll tell you what, though.
UFC took a risk, put him in there against Chad, and boy, did it pay off.
bryan callen
Did it pay off.
brendan schaub
That's like betting on black, and boy, did it hit.
Boy, did it pay off.
That's betting on double zero, and it landed.
bryan callen
And could have gone the other way very easily.
brendan schaub
Could have gone the other way and just killed the entire show.
bryan callen
Yeah.
brendan schaub
How happy is the UFC? Let's be real here.
bryan callen
How happy am I? How happy are we?
Yeah.
brendan schaub
I think that's a wrap.
You good, Jamie?
bryan callen
Yeah, for sure.
brendan schaub
Guys, thanks for listening to the Fight Companion without the head chief-o, Joe Rogan.
bryan callen
You took the wheel on this one.
I'd say you're the captain.
brendan schaub
Well, when Joe's gone, it could get a little wild.
You never know, my man.
You and I, we're like a captain-co-captain.
It's like Pip and Jordan.
bryan callen
When it comes to fighting, though, it's best if you take the lead.
brendan schaub
Yeah, maybe.
The replay in the brown means.
Anyways, we're going to get out of here.
The show where you can find us is The Fighter and The Kid.
Obviously, Joe Rogan experienced.
They're both great.
This is The Fighter Companion.
The Fight Companion.
Enjoy.
Hope you guys had as much fun as we did.
