Speaker Time Text
unidentified
And we're live.
joe rogan
Eddie Bravo, Brian Callen, Brendan Schaub, Eddie Bravo, the man who introduced me to marijuana.
For him I will forever be grateful.
eddie bravo
For medical reasons.
joe rogan
Medical reasons.
eddie bravo
It's totally legal now.
joe rogan
We don't even have...
bryan callen
His intensity was...
eddie bravo
When is that going to...
When is that going to effect?
joe rogan
It's now.
It was midnight that night.
unidentified
What?
joe rogan
It's legal.
unidentified
It changes that fast?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Recreationally legal.
unidentified
Wow.
bryan callen
Damn.
You have to be 18 or 21. I think you have to be 21. But now with Attorney General Jeff Sessions, if he gets confirmed, can he override the federal power?
joe rogan
I do not think that he would go against the will of Trump.
And I think that Trump, for all of his faults that you might find in him, he's a populist.
And I think the best argument is that a guy like him...
You can sort of influence him with the opinion of the country, you know?
And so it's kind of an interesting thing because it might be one of the first times ever, like, the opinion of the country might significantly influence some guy who's just completely foreign to the idea of politics.
unidentified
It's kind of a good thing, yeah?
joe rogan
He says a lot of great shit, man.
bryan callen
He's practical.
He's very practical.
joe rogan
This is not perfect.
Nothing's perfect.
Like many things in life.
But it might ultimately be a good thing to completely shake up the system.
The thing that troubles people that oppose that idea is all the Wall Street guys he's bringing in.
Like, right away.
He's bringing in all these billionaires and Goldman Sachs.
bryan callen
He's bringing in a lot of business people, too, who are practical as well, who understand the economy.
We'll see.
joe rogan
Listen, it might be good.
That might be a good thing.
That might be what they need to honestly figure out the economy.
I'm not saying it's impossible.
I'm not saying it's definite.
But isn't it possible that you could be a billionaire and still want to fix the fucked up economy?
unidentified
Of course.
joe rogan
Especially if you have everything you've ever wanted.
A lot of these guys, they do operate on that infinite growth idea.
They constantly want to get bigger yachts, bigger mansions, bigger houses.
But it's also possible that a guy could be just an intelligent guy that did really well in business.
Even some of the things Trump said himself.
He said, yeah, I took advantage of these loopholes.
But let's Let's get rid of them.
bryan callen
Think about what he did for a long time, which was he owned hotels, buildings, and wanted to give you the best experience possible.
A guy like that, who has a massive ego, of course, he wants a legacy he can point to.
He wants to go down as the greatest president.
He wants to fix Hopefully.
unidentified
That's where his ego is good.
bryan callen
My worry is that a guy like that is used to getting his way all the time.
The nature of the presidency is one in which you don't get your way, where you have to compromise.
A lot of times you get very frustrated with the power you don't have.
That's when I want to see how he reacts.
unidentified
He's failed a lot though in business.
Like, he's filed for Chapter 11 multiple times.
He's had a lot of failures.
bryan callen
Sure.
As all businessmen do.
unidentified
Most successful people have.
bryan callen
I'm just saying, I wonder what's going to happen when he can't convince companies to do his bidding, when a lot of his policies maybe don't give his voter base the jobs they wanted.
Because he can't implement the policies he wants, that's when it's going to be interesting.
unidentified
Do you think we'll see an assassination attempt?
joe rogan
Jesus Christ, Brendan Schaub.
unidentified
What, man?
Trying to mix it up?
joe rogan
You don't think it's going to happen?
I don't think so.
unidentified
You guys are crazy.
bryan callen
I hope not.
joe rogan
I don't think so.
unidentified
How many people are upset?
joe rogan
It's possible.
It's always possible.
eddie bravo
What kind of people?
joe rogan
People have tried to kill the president many times.
brendan schaub
Most of America because Hillary won the popular vote.
bryan callen
Actually, she only won it by, what, 50, 500,000?
eddie bravo
The crazy thing about...
The debate between Hillary and Trump, yeah, Trump's done some D-bag things or whatever, but when...
You guys know what Pizzagate is about?
unidentified
Oh, I'd love to hear it, Eddie.
eddie bravo
Are you familiar with it?
unidentified
Pizzagate?
eddie bravo
Yes.
unidentified
No, it sounds dope.
bryan callen
Yes, I do.
unidentified
I've never heard of it.
Please explain to me.
eddie bravo
I'm not going to explain it.
I'm not even going to get to it, but all I'm going to say...
bryan callen
It's such bullshit, Eddie.
Eddie, before you go into it, it's been debunked.
It's the biggest bunch of bullshit.
- Justin Devon! - Oh hell no! - Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, it's the biggest, it's fake news, they proved it's fake news.
eddie bravo
You're so on that side.
bryan callen
And if you believe that, it's ridiculous.
eddie bravo
You're so on that side.
bryan callen
So the power structure in the Democratic Party are pedophiles, and they all communicate with each other with those secret paddles?
Is this what we're going to go into?
unidentified
Are we going to pop off like this?
Are we going to kick the community off like this?
bryan callen
It was proven to be a horseshit story.
If you buy into it, the joke is on you.
I'm telling you.
I'm telling you.
eddie bravo
That's very unbelievable.
It's incredible.
bryan callen
So are you saying what?
Are you saying that the power structure are pedophiles?
eddie bravo
This is what I'm saying.
It's so fucking dark.
All the shit Alex Jones has been saying.
He's been saying all that Pizzagate shit for 20 years.
He's been saying everyone thought he was...
You couldn't believe anything he said because of the things he's saying.
Now, when you look at Pizzagate, all that shit he was saying that everyone thought he was crazy for, that shit's real now.
bryan callen
It's a fake news story, Eddie.
It's a fake news story.
Every credible news organization's editorial board, it's all bullshit.
CNN? Take both sides.
Take the right and the left.
It's a joke.
eddie bravo
It was a joke.
bryan callen
So Eddie, the power structure are all pedophiles?
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
eddie bravo
That's what I'm talking about.
bryan callen
Man love?
So the power structure are...
unidentified
Listen, listen, listen.
Brian's coming up.
eddie bravo
It's a Joe.
unidentified
It's a Joe.
eddie bravo
Have you seen the documentary Conspiracy of Silence?
Have you seen that?
bryan callen
Sure haven't, buddy.
eddie bravo
Of course you haven't.
bryan callen
Sure haven't.
I don't get my news from YouTube.
I don't get my news from YouTube.
I get my news from...
eddie bravo
From CNN? Washington Post?
bryan callen
Incredible news organization from independent lines of inquiry.
unidentified
Joe, can you do me a favor?
What is Pizzagate?
joe rogan
There's a guy who worked for Hillary Clinton's campaign.
His name is Podesta, right?
John Podesta, that's his name.
There's some pizza restaurant in...
Is it in D.C.? There's two of them.
eddie bravo
Comet Ping Pong and Besta Pizza.
joe rogan
And apparently they have art that's like this kind of famous pedophile-like bizarre art.
bryan callen
Well, it's two ping pong paddles, which is close to the Man Love organizations.
joe rogan
Is that all it is?
What about those paintings?
eddie bravo
Man Love's okay?
joe rogan
No, no, no.
He's not saying.
unidentified
He's just saying it's just also happened to be two ping pong paddles.
Paintings on the wall.
joe rogan
But Brian, what are the paintings that they're being accused of having?
bryan callen
So the man love has...
joe rogan
No, but not the symbol.
There's some paintings that we're connected to.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
There was some very bizarre...
It disturbed the shit out of me so much, I said, I don't want to spend any time looking at this.
You know what I know for sure, though?
For sure, 100%.
That Speaker of the House guy, Dennis Hassert, that got put away for like 15 months for being an admitted child molester.
The idea that this guy was the Speaker of the House.
He was the Speaker of the House, and he was fucking kids when he was a wrestling coach.
unidentified
And eating pizza?
joe rogan
No, this is a different guy.
bryan callen
I'm just trying to tie everything around.
joe rogan
Dude, I don't know what it was.
I don't know if it was because he's old and he's very sick and ill, but it means nothing to me.
The idea that you could get an admitted kid fucker and you only give him 15 months.
unidentified
That's shady.
bryan callen
There's more to the story.
joe rogan
I'm sure there is.
I'm sure there is more to the story, but the facts remain that that guy got a very short sentence and was the Speaker of the House and was a child molester.
I don't want to.
I mean, he really 100% was a child molester.
bryan callen
There are always going to be pedophiles in that group.
joe rogan
Right, but instead of having this gigantic blanket attitude that what he's saying is ridiculous and then getting super emotional about it, let's just look at the actual fact that a guy who was a pedophile was the Speaker of the House.
bryan callen
Has nothing to do with this story.
joe rogan
You're right, it doesn't.
But to mock the idea that people who are pedophiles can't get to high positions of power was exactly what you were doing.
bryan callen
It's not at all what I was doing.
joe rogan
Were you getting real emotional about it?
bryan callen
I was getting emotional because this story was proven through many independent lines of inquiry to be literally a hoax.
And when you give it a voice, when it's a hoax, and these people look at it way closer than anybody at this table.
It's not about conspiracy theory here.
What I'm trying to do is I'm trying to say, guys, guys, hold on.
This was kind of a big hoax, and so many different people who looked at it, they don't have an agenda.
They looked into it, and they went, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's going on?
joe rogan
So it's a fake story by one of those fake news sites.
bryan callen
It's a fake story, man, yeah.
So we have to be very careful.
Do we really want to spend time on fake stories?
Let's talk about fake stories.
joe rogan
Let me establish where I am.
I know the very brief outline of what it's all about.
I know that a lot of people think they're pedophiles and crazy and Satan worshippers, and there was that some spirit cooking thing, some bizarre thing that was released in an email about something that Podesta was going to get into.
And that's true, right?
Yeah, apparently that's true, but it's like some bizarre...
I don't know what the fuck it is.
It's dark shit.
bryan callen
It's weird.
unidentified
The guy who knows all of it won't speak up over here.
eddie bravo
You know what, I've looked into it deeply, and all conspiracy theories make sense to me now.
I get it.
unidentified
Every single one?
eddie bravo
I get it.
unidentified
Every single one, sir?
joe rogan
Not every single one.
eddie bravo
Can a guy speak in general terms without being checked every goddamn time?
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
Of course it's general.
eddie bravo
When a guy says, oh, he beat him every goddamn time.
Not every goddamn time, but 90% of the time.
unidentified
Do you know who you're around?
eddie bravo
Do you have to explain this shit every time?
Eddie, would you admit- In speaking in general terms, do I have to give you actual numbers?
bryan callen
Hey, would you admit that human beings, you and me, all of us, tend to get a feeling, and then we have what's called confirmation bias, which is we'll find, we'll find, we all do it.
We all do it, dude.
I do it, we all do it.
We'll find facts to support our feeling.
That's so human.
Listen, all you have to do is hear an argument between me and my wife, and I'll fucking justify it any way I can, because I find facts to get to pile on my side.
unidentified
There you go.
bryan callen
So let's all be careful about confirmation bias.
joe rogan
All I'm saying is to get super emotional and say it's impossible.
Like, I don't necessarily think it is impossible if that Speaker of the House guy was in place.
bryan callen
This story, in particular, Pizzagate?
eddie bravo
You just gotta look into it.
joe rogan
I know zero about it.
But let me, from where I am, I looked into it very little.
I'm like, I'm gonna just let this scuffle go on and then look into it when the dust settles in a couple weeks.
Figure out exactly what it is, whether it's bullshit or real.
eddie bravo
It made me, me looking into it, made me want to shut the fuck up about conspiracy theories.
unidentified
Because people get killed with this shit.
eddie bravo
When you actually look into it, and I'm like Brian Cowan, when you actually look into it, with an open fucking mind, you should trust the government on everything.
unidentified
God damn it, Brian.
bryan callen
I trust the government.
eddie bravo
Dude, you need to be a politician, bro.
unidentified
Eddie, you have me at Pizzagate.
eddie bravo
You would love that shit.
joe rogan
I think the truth is somewhere in the middle.
You know, I think everybody picks a position, and I bet it's probably not nearly as fucked up as everybody's making it out to be.
But there's some weird...
First of all, that Podesta guy's, like, really into UFOs, too.
bryan callen
I know.
There's smoke, there's fire.
Guys, guys, guys.
No, I'm sorry.
I have to stop.
joe rogan
Isn't Podesta related to UFOs?
unidentified
Hold on.
bryan callen
I don't believe so.
joe rogan
Wait a minute.
Hold on.
bryan callen
I don't care about that.
joe rogan
You might be into UFOs and you just stormtrooped over that.
bryan callen
You're telling me the truth to something in the middle.
What I'm saying is I'm reacting to what I had read from credible sources as being a fake.
joe rogan
I wish you could cite what it said and what the issue was.
bryan callen
I actually have the article on my phone.
joe rogan
Pull it up.
Just give it to Jamie.
We'll throw it up on one of the big screens.
unidentified
And then we'll knock this out.
eddie bravo
Yeah, all I gotta say is, I don't even want to get into it, but all you need to do is go to YouTube and watch the Conspiracy of Silence.
It's a documentary.
How long is it?
It was supposed to be on the BBC, but they never aired it.
bryan callen
Who made it?
eddie bravo
Your mother, Kellen.
bryan callen
No, who made it?
It's important, right?
eddie bravo
No, it's not.
bryan callen
It's not?
eddie bravo
No, Disney made it.
unidentified
How about that?
eddie bravo
Would you believe it if Disney made it?
bryan callen
What the hell is Pizza Gate?
Here it is, Jamie.
I'm going to give this to you.
Hold on.
joe rogan
Just tell him what it is and he'll get it online.
He has a computer as well.
It's interesting because the two of you guys are so on the opposite end of the whole conspiracy thing.
unidentified
Complete opposites.
joe rogan
You tend to immediately go towards conspiracies.
He tends to immediately go towards the mainstream.
unidentified
No, no, no.
I'm in the middle.
eddie bravo
No, no, no.
unidentified
I'm in the middle.
joe rogan
Guys, guys, guys.
unidentified
I want someone to convince me.
eddie bravo
It's not that.
unidentified
It's not that.
eddie bravo
What it is is I tend to not trust shit they say.
He tends to trust everything they say.
That's what it really is.
bryan callen
That's not a fair characterization.
eddie bravo
Dude, you're always on the official story side, dude.
You're one of those guys.
joe rogan
You're one of those guys.
You're always.
bryan callen
I read credit.
These two came in.
eddie bravo
Washington Post.
bryan callen
Not just Washington Post.
I mean, not just New York Times.
New York Times.
No, I read The Economist, which is the second oldest magazine in the world.
eddie bravo
You read all the propaganda.
unidentified
You read all the bullshit.
bryan callen
Do you know how those editorial boards work?
eddie bravo
You study the bullshit.
bryan callen
Eddie, do you know how those editorial boards work?
Do you know?
Do you really think that the entire editorial board of the New York Times or the Economist or the Wall Street Journal, where people who run the country and the world get their information, do you think all those people are lying, getting together, and being conspiratorial to give us fake news?
And for what?
Is that really what you believe?
eddie bravo
That's exactly it.
It's been proven.
They spent $500 million.
bryan callen
Eddie, answer my questions.
Do you believe that?
Do you believe it?
eddie bravo
I do believe it.
bryan callen
So everything that the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Economist reports, is a lie?
eddie bravo
Not everything.
bryan callen
Then what, though?
eddie bravo
Just the agenda.
unidentified
Why?
eddie bravo
Just getting the agenda.
unidentified
Why?
eddie bravo
Do you know what Agenda 21 is?
bryan callen
I don't, Eddie, but I want you to tell me why.
eddie bravo
Do you know what the New World Order is?
bryan callen
I don't, buddy.
eddie bravo
Of course you don't.
bryan callen
Because you think a small group of people are controlling everything?
Like the world economy or the oil markets?
unidentified
How?
bryan callen
Do you know how oil is priced?
Do you know how oil is priced?
eddie bravo
How?
bryan callen
Okay, it's an open market commodity.
It's a world commodity, right?
So it really depends on how much is available in that given day.
So for an example, you may have an oil tanker that's on its way to a country, and then somebody in the marketplace bids on that oil and wants that oil.
And that ship will turn back around and go to that market.
It all depends on what the marketplace and what all the different players who need oil and the amount of oil that's available, whether it's crude or raw, whatever it might be.
There's so many different factors that go into pricing oil.
Look at what happened when we came up with ways to get the oil out of the shale sands, right?
What happened?
The price of oil went down because the United States became an exporter of oil.
There was an oil glut.
And that's why Russia is having a major problem because their oil used to be $100 a barrel.
What is it, $47 a barrel or something?
So what I'm saying is that that's how oil is priced.
You're talking about a massive organism called the world economy, called the U.S. economy, where there are so many different moving parts and so many different competing interests.
So to say that one group of seven men or whoever they might be or 21 men controls things, is holding the strings, is Hollywood movie stuff.
It would be impossible.
It's hard to control anything.
Even in Washington, it's such a chaos fuckjob.
eddie bravo
You are so far on the other goddamn side.
joe rogan
Isn't it possible that the truth's in the middle there somewhere?
No.
bryan callen
It's not possible.
joe rogan
No, but I mean, people of influence, people like the people that run the World Bank, people that have massive influence over just enormous sums of money.
Don't you think it's possible they can have some influence due to the relationships that they have with people?
unidentified
They all try.
joe rogan
They all try and they do.
They all try and they do.
eddie bravo
He knows what's going on at the top.
bryan callen
He knows what's going on.
Again, they're competing with each other.
joe rogan
There's so many different competing.
I totally understand.
bryan callen
I mean, that's the issue.
The World Bank is a massive bureaucracy.
The IMF is a massive bureaucracy.
joe rogan
No, I completely understand.
I think there has to be some sort of control and manipulation involved.
bryan callen
Well, let me give you an example.
So let's take the division, let's take the Latin American Bank, which is, I think it's a subsidiary of the World Bank, I believe.
And I sat next to this guy on the plane and talked to him.
And he said that so much of the sort of projects and the money, what they were there for was to essentially give money to investments in the Latin American economy, to build up the Latin American economy in one way or another.
joe rogan
Amazing.
bryan callen
And I'm generalizing.
What happens sometimes is that that bank no longer becomes necessary because the economy of Latin America, whatever that country is, is running on its own.
So now, here's a conspiracy for you, which makes sense.
eddie bravo
Oh, here we go.
bryan callen
But now they go, well, we've got 3,500 people who are working at the Latin American bank.
If there's nothing left for them to do, we've got to come up with something for them to do.
And now they have a vested interest in staying in business because you've got 3,500 people whose jobs are at stake.
Now you can come up with projects that are fake or you'll be like, you guys still need us, you know, because we should do this and that.
That makes sense.
That would be, if you want to call that conspiracy theory, I would call that people who just want to hold onto their jobs and come up with reasons to exist.
eddie bravo
Do you know what Operation Mockingbird is?
unidentified
Of course he doesn't.
eddie bravo
Of course you don't.
bryan callen
I don't, buddy.
unidentified
Because if you did, you wouldn't be saying all that shit.
bryan callen
Did you hear what I said?
Did I say anything that was that radical?
eddie bravo
I have no idea what the fuck you said.
I wasn't listening to shit.
joe rogan
Moreno's got a good top game here, son.
unidentified
It's been a good fight, too.
joe rogan
Moreno's got a good top game.
eddie bravo
Look into Operation Mockingbird.
joe rogan
Strong.
bryan callen
Where can I look that up?
eddie bravo
Anywhere.
At the library.
joe rogan
At the library.
unidentified
The library won't have it.
eddie bravo
Operation Mockingbird.
Show it up, Jamie.
bryan callen
Why do you believe...
eddie bravo
Do you know what Operation Mockingbird is?
bryan callen
Why do you believe in all these conspiracy theories that got...
eddie bravo
Operation Mockingbird is not a conspiracy theory?
joe rogan
That's not a conspiracy theory.
bryan callen
But why do you believe a documentary on YouTube over...
The Economist.
Why would you believe, and you don't even know who made it, but you believe in a documentary versus...
eddie bravo
You're talking about some shit you've never seen.
Just because it's on YouTube, it's like, it's not real, it's on YouTube.
You don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about.
You're talking about some documentary.
You believe that documentary.
You don't even know what it is.
You've never even seen it.
bryan callen
Why do you believe it?
joe rogan
Because I've seen it.
eddie bravo
And I've seen people talk.
joe rogan
And there's evidence.
eddie bravo
I see the evidence.
I don't read about it.
joe rogan
I see the evidence.
Can I step in as both of your friends?
unidentified
Absolutely.
joe rogan
We've gotten so crazy here that you guys are arguing and we didn't even discuss what this movie's about.
Like, it hasn't even been whether or not it is a Operation Mockingbird, whether it was a conspiracy theory or whether it was a real event.
We didn't even discuss what it is and you guys are at each other's throats.
It's kind of crazy.
I mean, we literally didn't even bring up what the subject is and Brian, you jumped on him.
bryan callen
Uh, no, no, I did not.
joe rogan
They both jump on each other.
bryan callen
Excuse me, sir.
unidentified
You did.
bryan callen
Excuse me, sir.
joe rogan
You did, because this seems to be a real thing.
bryan callen
Excuse me, you started talking about Pizzagate.
unidentified
You can't say it's a real thing because of Wikipedia.
joe rogan
It's on the internet.
bryan callen
Sir?
unidentified
Sir?
bryan callen
You brought up Pizzagate.
All I did with Pizzagate is a library.
joe rogan
I fucking for sure didn't bring it up.
No, he brought up Pizzagate.
bryan callen
I'm pointing my finger at you, motherfucker.
joe rogan
There's no way.
I was saying, please don't bring up Pizzagate.
unidentified
I just want to know what Pizzagate was.
You fucking...
joe rogan
You're the fucking shitster!
I don't even want to talk about it!
And I don't even want to talk about it!
unidentified
You!
bryan callen
He's the guilty fuck!
eddie bravo
Everybody brings it up!
joe rogan
And I don't even- You brought it up!
bryan callen
No, look at him!
He's the one who's the shitster!
unidentified
I've never heard of pizza game!
I was fucking interested!
Then you should- Oh, did you bring it up?
Yeah!
bryan callen
You son of a- You son of a bitch.
You threw kindling on the fire.
joe rogan
We should have talked beforehand.
Why did I think Eddie brought it up the whole time?
I'm like, I can't believe they're fighting over something called Pizzagate.
unidentified
He said Pizzagate, and I was like, holy shit, that sounds interesting.
You had me at Pizzagate.
I wanted to know what it was.
eddie bravo
But I just wanted to say, because a lot of people on the internet want me to bring that shit up, and I'm like, I really don't want to bring it up.
That's some scary shit.
When you really look into it, shit that you've never done, when you actually look into it, when you look into it, doesn't even know...
Operation Mockingbird is a CIA operation where they were to prevent and control communism, infiltration.
They thought it would be best to buy up as many different broadcasting companies.
They wanted to own the media.
They wanted magazines, newspapers.
CNN is part of that shit.
Anderson Cooper is admitted a CIA agent.
He admits it.
He goes, yeah, I was in the CIA, so what?
joe rogan
He actually worked for them when he was in college.
Is that what it was?
He did an internship or something like that?
eddie bravo
You don't have to go to the CIA college to be a CIA agent.
unidentified
They make random dudes internationally.
bryan callen
Look at me.
Anderson Cooper's not a CIA agent.
joe rogan
He could be.
eddie bravo
Look into it.
bryan callen
Guys, look into it.
eddie bravo
He worked for the CIA. Look, CIA had Operation Mockingbird.
We're going to control the media.
You buy into the media.
That's why you don't know about Operation Mockingbird.
You've been caught.
bryan callen
They got you.
I don't buy into the media.
unidentified
Oh, they got you.
bryan callen
I do not buy into the media.
eddie bravo
Dude, they got you strong, son.
unidentified
A long time ago, too.
eddie bravo
I bet you're pro-vaccine, right?
Okay, there you go, of course.
bryan callen
You're anti-vaccine all the way across?
Okay.
You're not really...
Not for smallpox, diphtheria, measles, and all the things, and mumps, and all the things.
eddie bravo
That's all fake shit, B. All vaccines aren't the same.
So when you talk about vaccines, they're not all the same.
Some can be safe, and some can be dangerous.
bryan callen
That's true.
I can understand that.
eddie bravo
That's all I'm going to say about that.
bryan callen
That's all right.
That's a reasonable thing.
unidentified
I agree with Eddie on that.
joe rogan
Many doctors agree on that.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
Yeah.
eddie bravo
You know what happened in 1986?
Ronald Reagan signed a bill that made Big Pharma immune to lawsuits.
Because Big Pharma was about to say, fuck making vaccines.
Too many people are suing us.
So Ronald Reagan had to come in and say, keep making them.
I'll make a bill where no one can sue you.
bryan callen
No, but they can't be sued.
They can't be sued.
Big Pharma gets sued all the time.
eddie bravo
They don't get sued.
For vaccines.
For vaccines.
They can't get sued for vaccines.
If you want to sue anybody for vaccines, your kid gets fucked up from vaccines, you go to the vaccine court.
It's a federal agency where they give out I don't know how many fucking billions of goddamn dollars.
bryan callen
People have allergic reactions to vaccines.
joe rogan
Of course, of course.
eddie bravo
But since 1986, what happened is since 1986, since Big Pharma said, shit, we can't get sued, that's when if you actually look at vaccines and not just go, polio, what about polio?
unidentified
What about smallpox?
eddie bravo
When you look at what happened, they fucking greenlit.
They're like, each vaccine's worth like a trillion dollars.
And they went, bing, bing, bing.
So now the kids have 36 fucking shots.
bryan callen
64. It's crazy.
No, no, but that's the problem.
unidentified
That's reasonable.
bryan callen
So that would make sense.
So if you said to me, hey, Bri, once the pharmaceutical companies saw that there was a lot of money in giving preventative vaccines, and it goes up to 64 when it used to be 6 or 10 or whatever when I was a kid, now...
Now you go, oh, well that makes sense, because what does Big Pharma do?
They manipulate the FDA, they manipulate government.
eddie bravo
The CDC? Yes.
bryan callen
They own the CDC. Right, so that they can then make money.
joe rogan
Brian, what you're saying sounds very much like a conspiracy.
unidentified
No, no.
eddie bravo
All of a sudden he's fucking...
bryan callen
It's the weed setting.
joe rogan
That black helicopter is the weed setting.
unidentified
You don't even know what Operation Mockingbird is.
eddie bravo
You don't know that you're caught in a CIA operation.
unidentified
You don't even know that.
bryan callen
That's not conspiracy.
That makes sense from a business point of view, which I can understand is insidious when you have huge corporations in cahoots with government.
eddie bravo
Dangerous and shit.
They don't care.
We can't get sued.
Why test?
They're green.
They're convincing the CDC with money.
Hey, pass this motherfucker really quick.
joe rogan
Major points for using in cahoots in a sentence correctly.
unidentified
In cahoots.
5,000 points.
eddie bravo
It's just common sense.
unidentified
It's a racket.
joe rogan
Common sense, really.
eddie bravo
They own the media.
You don't think the fucking people that run shit own the media?
You gotta be an idiot to fucking not think...
The people that run shit own the media, own entertainment, own everything!
bryan callen
It doesn't mean...
eddie bravo
Gangsters!
People that run this shit don't own the fucking media!
You don't own the TV, you dumb motherfucker!
bryan callen
It doesn't mean that you can't get credible information On a lot of topics, like the economy, like the war, whatever it is, if you know where to look, it doesn't mean you can't get credible information on the truth of what's going on.
unidentified
That's what I'm saying.
But to Eddie's point, that shit Washington Post is all...
eddie bravo
Well, they're very liberal.
The mainstream media...
It's all controlled.
That ain't real shit.
That's all controlled.
It's part of the agenda.
It's all slowly, inch by inch, take away the guns, and let's fucking, let's control everybody and implode economies, fucking start civil wars.
unidentified
They love that shit.
bryan callen
But I don't think they like that.
I think that the- They love that shit.
If you said to me that the mainstream media And whether it's on the right or the left, has agendas and has been corrupted and has allowed their own personal points of view to infiltrate the news and so report unfairly and so report in a biased fashion and the news is no longer as objective as it was or should be.
eddie bravo
I think it's a sham.
bryan callen
Now that makes sense.
If you say, for example, that GTE or GE owns certain news organizations, then that's a conflict or could be a conflict of interest.
And we have to be very careful because they may not report on GE's practices if they're irresponsible.
Now I can have a conversation because that would make sense to me.
That would make sense because – but when you say that everybody in the New York Times, the Washington Post is a CIA pawn.
eddie bravo
This is what I'm saying.
There's an operation that the CIA – this is not a conspiracy theory.
Operation Mockingbird.
There's Operation Paperclip taking all the Nazis after World War II, Operation Paperclip taking thousands of Nazi scientists into the government and creating NASA, NASA Nazi scientists, and you believe...
They're masters of propaganda.
The Nazis were masters.
They put out films just to get people, just to get people, the people to get used to killing people like if they were a certain condition.
They put out propaganda films, and you can watch this shit, Deranged people on the street killing people.
People thought they would watch these newsreels, and they thought there was demented people on the streets killing people, and that was never happening.
They just wanted the people to agree that we can kill those people, right?
unidentified
Because they're crazy.
eddie bravo
Yeah, because they're crazy.
No one's killing anybody, but it was all part of a propaganda agenda.
bryan callen
Can I give you a little perspective on that?
So Einstein came from Germany, and a lot of the Jewish scientists in the 30s, when there was this rise of anti-Semitism, migrated, immigrated, To the United States.
unidentified
What about the Nazis forming NASA? NASA. What about that?
bryan callen
When we realized that the Nazis were very close to creating a nuclear bomb, that they had some really amazing scientists.
Amazing!
Knew a lot of stuff.
I mean, there was a real scientific tradition.
Remember, that's where Einstein came out of.
In fact, the anti-Semitism that rose up in the 30s is why a lot of historians have credited the United States' ability to create a nuclear bomb before the Nazis because of that immigration.
So anti-Semitism in Germany actually pushed a lot of these brilliant scientists toward the U.K., toward the United States.
joe rogan
Didn't a bunch of the Nazi guys go to Russia as well?
unidentified
Half of them went to Russia, half of them went to the States.
bryan callen
Operation Paperclip, that's another one.
Probably when Russia took half of Germany, remember?
So there was East Berlin and West Berlin.
East Germany, West Germany.
So when they took East Germany, nobody was getting out of East Germany.
joe rogan
It was understandably.
Look, if you're going to be intelligent and pragmatic and the war is essentially over, right?
It's understandable to want to get their brightest minds and bring them over.
bryan callen
Of course.
joe rogan
You've already conquered them, right?
This is post-World War II. To let them linger and become used by the establishment that you just defeated, that's crazy.
These are super geniuses.
If you're a genius...
eddie bravo
Dude, these guys are fucking torturing people and experimenting on people.
bryan callen
Not these physicists.
joe rogan
Well, who knows?
Listen, we don't know.
We don't know.
But I do know that the Simon Wiesenthal Center said that if Wernher von Braun, who was the head of NASA, if Wernher von Braun was alive today, they would prosecute him for crimes against humanity.
bryan callen
Because he was instrumental in coming up with weaponry that killed a lot of, you know, the Allies.
joe rogan
It was that.
It was also that they hung the five slowest Jews every day in front of his rocket factory in Berlin.
The ones who worked the slowest.
They would hang them.
These guys remembered it.
These guys who lived in Miami.
The guys who lived in Miami that were in the concentration camps, they interviewed them for this documentary on the moon landings and NASA and all the scientists behind it, and they were saying that they would see those guys come in, they would see those scientists come in, and they would hang the five slowest Jews in front of the building.
bryan callen
Those are the guys that were running NASA. That's the least of what went on in Nazi Germany.
joe rogan
You don't know what went on.
I mean, we don't know.
eddie bravo
Come on, man.
bryan callen
I don't know what went on.
I studied.
That was my area of focus.
eddie bravo
Mainstream science?
bryan callen
I was a history major.
eddie bravo
Mainstream science?
bryan callen
That was my area of focus, Nazi Germany.
eddie bravo
Hey, maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe you're right about the Nazis and I'm wrong, but they seemed like they were fucking sick, twisted motherfuckers.
That's what they seem like.
bryan callen
Well, they were.
eddie bravo
But maybe they weren't.
Maybe you're right.
unidentified
Maybe they weren't.
bryan callen
Who's saying they weren't?
eddie bravo
You were calling them amazing and geniuses.
joe rogan
No, no, no, no, no.
We're talking about the scientists.
eddie bravo
That's what I'm talking about.
The scientists were the guys.
bryan callen
Eddie, Eddie, the scientists involved in the nuclear program.
joe rogan
They were doing crazy shit.
Hold on, Eddie.
There's different scientists that are the medical scientists versus different scientists that are engineers versus different scientists that are working towards nuclear weapons.
unidentified
But they were Nazis, though.
bryan callen
No, Eddie, many of the scientists were Jews.
And they weren't killed because they were instrumental.
They were too valuable.
eddie bravo
All right, so NASA's fine.
At most, they're fine.
joe rogan
Well, a lot of the inventions that were made by the Haber method, That was made by a guy who was a Jewish guy, which is a crazy story.
bryan callen
Amazing.
joe rogan
He also created something called Zyklon A, which was a gas that had a smell added to it so it would warn you that the gas was present.
It was an insecticide, right?
Exactly.
And the Nazis took it and they switched it to Zyklon B. They took the smell out of it so that you wouldn't smell it, and then they used it in the gas chamber.
So this guy who invented the Haber Method, where 50% of the nitrogen that's in most of the human beings on the planet Earth comes from.
bryan callen
Because nitrogen is how you fertilize.
You create fertilizer.
joe rogan
And this guy figured out how to draw nitrogen out from the atmosphere.
But this is how complicated he was.
He was a Jewish guy.
And while he was winning the Nobel Prize for the Haber Method, he was also being wanted for crimes against humanity because he figured out how to gas people, too.
bryan callen
Because he was a German patriot.
joe rogan
Exactly.
And there was a war going on.
They were using gas warfare for the first time on the Allies.
So at the same time that he created this method that's going to double the population of the world like that.
bryan callen
It saved a lot of people from starvation during the winter.
joe rogan
There's so much more food available now because most people don't know.
You've got to throw something into the ground in order for the soil to...
It's supposed to be a cycle.
Things are supposed to die on it.
Those things get absorbed into the cycle of the soil.
The soil is nutrient-rich, powerful, healthy plants grow from it.
But when you just keep putting corn in the same spot over and over and over again, you've got to throw some shit into the soil.
And Fritz Haber figured out how to get it out of the air itself, because the air is like 80% nitrogen.
You think of the air as being mostly oxygen.
You know, you think oxygen and carbon dioxide.
No, it's mostly nitrogen.
Isn't that incredible?
So this guy is fucking genius.
eddie bravo
Did you read that on the library or the internet?
bryan callen
No, that was on the internet?
joe rogan
This is just a fact.
eddie bravo
But where'd you read that?
joe rogan
I heard it on the radio lab, but then I read it all over the place.
eddie bravo
On the internet or in the library?
joe rogan
I read it on the internet.
eddie bravo
Fuck.
That's bullshit, then.
joe rogan
Anyway, this hobber method.
bryan callen
Hey, man, you're being sarcastic.
joe rogan
Forget about politics and nonsense for a second.
Just think about what a genius you have to be to figure out how to pull nitrogen out of the air and put it in the soil, and all of a sudden everything grows better.
unidentified
Yeah, smart dude.
bryan callen
But what's also amazing is how complicated human beings are because it raises some really interesting questions.
The guy invents the gas that was used on the Jews, his own people.
However, he invented chemical weaponry because he was a German patriot and wanted Germany to win World War I and said, I have a better way to do this.
And so you put yourself in his position.
It raised a lot of difficult questions.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Well, he was a super complicated person.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
As are we all.
And like many geniuses, many like really fucking smart people like that are fucking very complicated.
eddie bravo
Why didn't the Nazis just shoot the Jews?
Like line them up and just shoot them?
bryan callen
They did.
joe rogan
They did a lot of that.
eddie bravo
They did six million of them.
brendan schaub
Why would they buy the gas and then they gotta drag them out?
unidentified
Because it was easier.
joe rogan
They gotta drag them out of the showers.
bryan callen
They did a lot of different things.
joe rogan
Just put them in a room.
bryan callen
They starved them.
joe rogan
Yeah, they did a lot of different shit.
eddie bravo
Put them in a room, they gas them, and then they all die.
Have you?
And then who's gonna drag them out?
joe rogan
Eddie, have you ever seen- Who drags them out?
eddie bravo
You know, heavy body, dead body.
unidentified
Oh wait, you're saying that- No, I'm just saying, why not just shoot them?
joe rogan
No, he's saying, why not just shoot them?
eddie bravo
I would have thought, like, gassing them.
bryan callen
They did shoot them.
eddie bravo
It seems like sick and perverted and twisted.
Like, let's gas them.
joe rogan
Exactly.
eddie bravo
Why gas them?
Why not just shoot them?
brendan schaub
A lot of times when they gas them, they didn't know they were getting gassed, too, right?
eddie bravo
It doesn't make any sense.
Why not just shoot them?
bryan callen
So you're going to have to drag them out.
So can I tell you why?
eddie bravo
Mexicans, that's the way they do it.
They dig a big-ass fucking hole with a big-ass...
unidentified
Tell them about the cartels?
eddie bravo
And then they just line them up.
bryan callen
But you know what they did?
eddie bravo
They've got to clean up.
They're thinking ahead.
bryan callen
But they did that in the Russian countryside.
You can see video of it.
They dug massive graves and they'd make them dig their own graves.
And then they would just shoot them now.
But what happened?
Put them in the shower.
eddie bravo
You've got to drag them out of the shower and they've got chemicals all over them.
bryan callen
But listen, what they would do is when they would bring them on the trains to Auschwitz, Tripolinka, and Dachau and all the different death camps, they couldn't...
If they started lining people up, what would happen?
Especially women and children.
unidentified
Hysteria.
bryan callen
Hysteria.
So what they said is they'd get off the train after this horrible train ride and they'd say, here's a bar of soap.
You're going to take a shower.
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
They'd put them all in these...
unidentified
They'd trick them.
bryan callen
And they'd trick them.
They'd be in these showers, quote-unquote showers.
unidentified
But some would take showers, right?
bryan callen
What's that?
unidentified
Some actually would take showers, and some would be killed.
bryan callen
That's right.
unidentified
So they didn't know.
bryan callen
So the strong...
eddie bravo
So they mixed it up.
bryan callen
The ones that looked strong, they could use for work, they would work...
And the ones who were children went right away.
The ones who were healthy, too.
eddie bravo
But the gas thing seems so twisted.
It seems so...
Why not just make them drink?
joe rogan
They did a lot of horrible things.
eddie bravo
That's what I'm talking about!
unidentified
Dude, no one's...
That's NASA! You guys are saying they're all anti-Nazi.
joe rogan
But hold on a second.
eddie bravo
Inventative gas to kill Jews.
joe rogan
I'm like, what the fuck?
There's always going to be a difference between concentration camp guards and scientists.
eddie bravo
Those guards must have been buff.
joe rogan
But that's the same thing as us.
It's like saying that you, as a martial artist, you train people at a fight, you probably have some connection with someone who's a corrections officer.
I do.
You know what I'm saying, though?
You do.
You know, but how much do you have an effect over what they do with their life?
The people who are working as corrections officers are probably, or the guards, rather, at Auschwitz, are probably so far removed from the fucking scientists.
It's not like they all get together and go, we're all evil, right?
Yeah, what are you doing today for evil?
Oh, I'm torturing the Jews.
eddie bravo
What are you doing?
unidentified
I'm going to go with the Nazis are evil, all of them.
joe rogan
No, Eddie, 100%.
That's not what I'm saying.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
100% anybody who's subscribed to that ideology is evil.
unidentified
100%.
eddie bravo
Eddie, Eddie, please.
bryan callen
No, Eddie, you know what?
The scientists didn't have a choice.
They had to work.
You couldn't say to the Hitler, the Nazi regime, hey, guys, I'm not going to work on your super bomb.
joe rogan
Listen, man.
eddie bravo
You don't think of a scientist with a white fucking coat on just in front of a beaker like all day.
brendan schaub
Those dudes went into twisted, occultist shit.
eddie bravo
They're the ones that brought it in.
joe rogan
Maybe some of them.
eddie bravo
They were into it.
Nazis, it was a religion.
It wasn't just like, oh, I got a white coat and I got a beaker all day.
All day I got a beaker.
joe rogan
There was a lot of people that were trying to get rid of Hitler.
Do you understand?
eddie bravo
There were regular dudes who wanted to fuck.
joe rogan
But there was people that were trying to get rid of Hitler that thought he was crazy.
There was a lot of that going on, too.
There was failed assassination attempts, failed coup attempts.
It wasn't like they were all on board.
It's just he had massive amounts of power, and he was a fucking terrifying individual.
And he was a dynamic speaker.
He could get thousands of people.
Hitler was a...
Who's that?
bryan callen
And people were Have you seen his speeches?
They're so theatrical, it's unbelievable.
joe rogan
He's a beast.
I don't know what the fuck he's saying.
eddie bravo
You guys like Nazis.
joe rogan
No, no, no.
unidentified
He was so well-spoken.
joe rogan
This is so passionate.
I don't know what he was saying.
Jesus Christ.
But when you listen to that guy talk, he's got it.
It's fun Jimmy bring it out whatever he's doing Sure, could Joey do I bet he could do Castro Hey Castro Hitler wouldn't go over well.
bryan callen
But guys, if you see my stand up, my stand up is pretty amazing.
joe rogan
That fucking guy with his limp.
How is Joey?
bryan callen
I love him because he only calls.
He'll never text.
If I text him, he calls.
joe rogan
He just did a thing for CISO. He just did this stand-up comedy special.
unidentified
For CISO? Yeah, CISO. Where'd he shoot it at?
joe rogan
He shot it in Chicago.
unidentified
Oh, nice.
joe rogan
Yeah, outside of...
The theater?
Just outside of Chicago, Rosemont.
unidentified
Where were we at, B? Hey, my special's available on Monday.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus.
unidentified
I'll call you.
bryan callen
You can help me with that.
joe rogan
Call me.
Let's do it.
unidentified
But you don't know what the platform would be?
bryan callen
It's gonna be on iTunes.
It'll be on Stitcher everything.
You can buy it.
unidentified
Monday.
eddie bravo
No politics no more.
joe rogan
How's it Stitcher?
bryan callen
I mean iTunes.
unidentified
That's audio.
bryan callen
I gotta look at it, guys.
joe rogan
Stitcher's for a podcast, right?
bryan callen
I'm getting all the info on Monday.
unidentified
He doesn't know.
joe rogan
Stitcher people are like, what the fuck, bro?
You lied to us.
You let me down, man.
eddie bravo
Hey, what's going on?
joe rogan
Brian, you were always number one in my book.
No, you're number four.
No, the audio will be- Keep slipping, bro.
bryan callen
The audio will be available.
unidentified
And I'll tell you what's really good news- That post you made today- I want to punch you in the face.
joe rogan
You fucked up pretty bad.
unidentified
You fucked it up.
bryan callen
No, it'll be on iTunes and it'll be on Google Play.
eddie bravo
I don't think we've made one comment about the fight.
unidentified
The next fight's good.
Hey, Jake Ellenberger's fighting Masvidal.
joe rogan
That's a motherfucking fight.
It's a very good fight.
That's a very good fight.
unidentified
Yeah, tonight, sir.
joe rogan
But the rugged handsomeness of Brett Favre just distracted me for a brief moment.
bryan callen
Damn right.
joe rogan
It looks better as he gets older.
You ever seen his dick pic?
He gives less a fuck.
unidentified
You ever seen his dick pic?
joe rogan
Yes.
Not good.
bryan callen
Sad.
unidentified
But it could have been photoshopped and I'm always willing to hold out hope.
I wouldn't allow him in the Hall of Fame.
If that came out before the Hall of Fame, you ain't in.
joe rogan
It might be an inside joke that just no one's telling you about.
unidentified
Never.
bryan callen
He's a grower, not a shower.
joe rogan
It could be an inside joke.
unidentified
Get Crocs on, son.
joe rogan
It might have been part of the inside joke.
Yep.
He's such a stunt.
unidentified
I'd eat the shit out of that right now.
Uh, Brett Vaughn, he didn't even comment on it.
He's just, yeah, what can you do?
joe rogan
Yeah, that's the way to do it.
bryan callen
Is that the best way to do it?
Isn't that the best way to do a scandal?
unidentified
Hell yeah.
joe rogan
Uh, probably.
Which depends on what the scandal is, right?
unidentified
If you're Wiener, no.
Anthony Wiener, go ahead and address that shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, you probably should.
unidentified
Yeah.
bryan callen
But sometimes it's just like, ah, fuck it.
joe rogan
This fucking fight, man.
Pettis versus Holloway is going to be lit.
unidentified
Hey, Max Holloway.
eddie bravo
Is that today?
joe rogan
That's next week.
bryan callen
Hey, what happened to the cowboy's eye?
Is that real?
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
Oh, it's not?
unidentified
No.
bryan callen
All right.
joe rogan
But you're talking about it, right?
So it serves its purpose.
unidentified
That's a fun card, man.
joe rogan
It's a great card.
unidentified
Holloway, nine in a row, fucking Connor had to be like, all right, I'm not going.
brendan schaub
They had to strip him off a belt, and then finally he gets a title shot.
unidentified
God damn it.
Give the guy a goddamn...
And it's kind of a fake inter...
Because they're like, Jose's the champ.
This is for an interim title.
But he's the champ.
joe rogan
Why not just give it to him?
unidentified
Yeah, for an interim title.
No, I know, but you already have a champ.
But they're going to fight for their term.
Alright, I like belts.
Fuck it, let's do it.
If that gets Max or Anthony Pettis a belt, let's fucking ride.
joe rogan
I feel the same way.
I feel the same way.
unidentified
I like it.
joe rogan
I like that fight, man.
unidentified
Everyone gets belts.
joe rogan
The only thing I wonder about that fight is I wonder how well Pettis' body adapted to 145. Here's the real question, Joe.
unidentified
Remember, they weren't the main event.
Now they are five rounds.
brendan schaub
Now, we've seen them adapt all right with two to three rounds at 45. Imagine round four and five, the championship rounds.
joe rogan
Now, let me ask you this.
bryan callen
Harder because he loses weight?
unidentified
Yes.
Cardio.
joe rogan
Let me ask you this as a guy who...
Have you ever fought five?
unidentified
Never fought five, no.
Never fought for title two.
Thanks for bringing that up.
joe rogan
No, that's not what I meant.
unidentified
I know, I'm just kidding.
joe rogan
But do you feel that those, like, when you get in shape to go a hard three, how much of a difference is there between the hard three and the hard five?
Is it mental?
At a certain point in time, how much more training, how much in better shape could you really get?
And is it one of those things where it's just harder?
You've got to be more educated.
unidentified
It's the pace, yeah.
joe rogan
But is it just harder?
Or does it require more time to prepare for five rounds?
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
So you get in peak shape.
unidentified
No matter what.
joe rogan
Peak shape is peak shape.
And the difference is between you just having to fight 15 minutes and the potential of 25. Correct.
bryan callen
See, didn't you spar 25 minutes all the time?
unidentified
I usually go 7 rounds.
brendan schaub
But to your point, I think it's the pacing in the early rounds.
unidentified
Take, for instance, Brunson vs.
Whitaker.
brendan schaub
When he came out, I went, oh, he's not fighting to go 5 rounds.
unidentified
He's just trying to Trying to get out of it.
Exactly.
Trying to win and get out.
brendan schaub
Because everyone in the world knows at that level, you can't go for a five-round fight.
joe rogan
It's impossible.
By the way, let me just say, Sarah McMahon's about to fight.
She feels like Glacen Tebow.
You put your hand on her shoulder.
I mean that in a good way.
bryan callen
She's such a mesomorph tank.
joe rogan
She's a tank.
unidentified
I'm a fan of hers.
joe rogan
The girl's really strong.
bryan callen
Powerful wrestler.
joe rogan
Silver medalist in the Olympics.
eddie bravo
She don't like jiu-jitsu, though.
I hope that's changed.
No, she said it.
She said she's not into it.
joe rogan
God, she would be so good at it.
bryan callen
And is there any woman that you've ever rolled with that gave you any kind of fits or any problem?
Not to be sexist, but be honest.
eddie bravo
I'm sure if I rolled with Gabby Garcia, she'd fuck me up.
joe rogan
She's big, dude.
unidentified
Mackenzie might put something heavy on you.
Mackenzie.
joe rogan
Every girl I roll with, they're too light.
eddie bravo
They're little.
They're like 125 pounds, 135. I'm like, 145?
joe rogan
Let me queue up the time here so we'll actually try to watch this.
442, 441, 440, 439, all of the first round.
It's Sarah McMahon versus Alexis Davis.
bryan callen
Do you think that that stoppage when she fought Ronda and got kneed?
joe rogan
100% legit.
bryan callen
It was legit?
unidentified
Super legit.
joe rogan
Ronda cracked her with the right hand, then cracked her with the knee, and then put the mitts to her.
unidentified
She was in trouble.
joe rogan
Yes.
eddie bravo
What if McMahon developed some serious stand-up?
joe rogan
She does have good stand-up.
She just ran into the freight train that is Ronda Rousey.
She's a decent fighter all around.
She does a lot of things good all around.
unidentified
She is muscular as fuck.
joe rogan
She's an Olympian, son.
unidentified
Dude, how much of a bummer is that DC's out against Rumble?
joe rogan
That's a bummer.
unidentified
Ain't that a bitch?
bryan callen
Is that his knee or what is it?
unidentified
Groin.
He had surgery, too.
joe rogan
Alexis Davis beat Amanda Nunes.
bryan callen
Dude, look at this.
joe rogan
Way back in the dizzy.
She's tough, dude.
But Ronda was just too much for her.
eddie bravo
She beat both of them, right?
joe rogan
Who else?
eddie bravo
Ronda beat both of these girls, right?
joe rogan
Yes.
Yeah, Ronda smushed both of them.
She gave both of them the smush arena.
unidentified
Look at that.
joe rogan
She smushed Sarah McMahon with a knee.
eddie bravo
Oh, that's a good move with that elbow right there.
Shit.
That's good shit.
People don't do that enough.
Look at that.
Why not?
Just throw those short elbows.
unidentified
Ooh, wow.
joe rogan
That hurts.
eddie bravo
There's some serious shit going on right there.
joe rogan
Yeah, she does not like that.
unidentified
And you gotta react to it, too, when they throw elbows like that.
eddie bravo
Pele Landy was the first dude.
Anytime Pele Landy back in the day in the late Landys in Brazil.
joe rogan
Oh, oh.
eddie bravo
He would do this all day on dudes.
joe rogan
These are hard.
She's trapped now.
Instead of her being in a good position, she's trapped getting elbowed.
unidentified
Well, she's in protection mode.
joe rogan
Eddie, do you remember Jason Day?
He was like one of the first guys to figure out how to do that from the rubber guard.
bryan callen
Eddie, what do you do in this situation?
joe rogan
You go right there.
eddie bravo
Start throwing elbows right now with the left elbow.
bryan callen
What does Sarah McMahon do here?
eddie bravo
She needs to posture up or not punch.
Because if Alexis Davis really knew how to play some high-level rubber guard, She would have never let Sarah McMahon have her hand on the mat and then have the hand on the chest, have the hand on the mat.
Once the hand's on the mat, boom, it stays there.
We're not going back to the chest.
unidentified
Check this out, though.
She's about to triangle this bitch.
Ah, fuck.
I didn't mean to say bitch.
joe rogan
She has a lot of potential.
unidentified
I didn't mean to say bitch.
bryan callen
I started laughing at that.
Hey, you couldn't help it.
unidentified
What about you guys who are free from Fox?
joe rogan
You can just let those bitches loose.
You got them all corralled up in your brain.
bryan callen
Let them bitches loose.
unidentified
Get them all corralled.
joe rogan
See, on this side, on her right side, see where Sarah McMahon's right arm is?
That should never be there.
When your right arm is pinned to the ground like that, and you have someone with a strong rubber guard, especially someone who's already taken mission control with that left leg up, the first thing to do is to trap that arm.
So once that arm is down on the ground like that, you never want to give it back.
And she keeps giving it back over and over and over again.
unidentified
Here's the thing, though.
Sarah's winning.
Sarah's winning this round, gentlemen.
joe rogan
Yeah, she is.
But what I'm saying is there's a lot of opportunities for Alexis Davis off her back.
unidentified
No, I'm with you.
joe rogan
She's just not doing anything.
Every time Sarah McMahon puts her hand onto the ground like that, she's extremely vulnerable.
unidentified
You keep it there.
You keep it there.
Boom.
eddie bravo
And then you work off that.
bryan callen
Everything comes off that.
joe rogan
She's very vulnerable.
A person with a very good rubber guard, as soon as you put your arm down on the mat, they're going to immediately overhook that arm, try to trap it in place, and then try to go to mission control.
She achieved mission control.
She just didn't exactly know what to do once she got there.
So she didn't try to progress any further.
And then there was the punches.
But first of all, if you just want to elbow someone, if you watch the Alan Belcher-Jason Day fight, Jason Day was, you know, he beat Alan Belcher...
Really, early on, when Belcher's a fantastic fighter, and since then...
Belcher beat Paul Harries.
Beat Paul Harries at his own game.
unidentified
At his prime.
At his own game.
joe rogan
Went leg-locked with him and dominated the position and beat the shit out of him.
unidentified
I love Alan Belcher.
joe rogan
So it's not a diss on Alan Belcher.
I love that dude.
But Jason Day showed how effective that position could be in holding that spot and blasting elbows in place.
So there's a lot of people that use the first couple of steps of the position, but they don't know high-level shit from then out.
eddie bravo
It's a long process.
It's like trying to shoot doubles, but you don't really practice wrestling.
joe rogan
She's in a good position.
eddie bravo
You know what I mean?
It's like, okay, I see you're trying to shoot a double.
unidentified
She's getting pretty nasty.
Oh, look at that!
joe rogan
She was in a good position.
eddie bravo
Man, she's so close to finishing this fight.
She's so close.
She shouldn't hit her.
She should cinch it up because hitting her is going to bash her out.
She needs to scoot that left leg over.
She's got to scoot that left leg over.
bryan callen
Don't tap.
You've got ten seconds.
joe rogan
The left leg's got to be closer to us.
unidentified
That's a good shot right there.
joe rogan
Oh man, that was phenomenal.
eddie bravo
Alexis Davis got A lot of potential off her back.
She could be a fucking assassin.
unidentified
She should have finished that?
joe rogan
That was nasty.
That was nasty.
eddie bravo
It all depends what level you are with it.
My high level rubber guard players, they wouldn't last like 30 seconds there.
That would have all just been a wrap around it.
unidentified
You're saying pure jiu-jitsu guys?
eddie bravo
Pure jiu-jitsu.
unidentified
Yes, pure jiu-jitsu guys.
joe rogan
When punches come into play, obviously there's a big difference.
eddie bravo
It doesn't even matter.
The punches will make it easier.
Punches make it easier.
The way you stop rubber guard, don't punch.
joe rogan
Unless Crow Cop elbows you in the fucking mug.
eddie bravo
Correct.
Then you're not in rubber guard.
unidentified
You can't get elbowed in rubber guard, so if you get elbowed, you're not in rubber guard.
It's really tough to get a guy in rubber guard if he's aware of rubber guard, yes?
eddie bravo
Not really.
Not really.
I mean, there's counters, but then you just keep playing the game.
It's like saying, if you try to throw that head kick, dudes will get out of the way, right?
Yeah, they'll get out of the way, but you still fucking throw it.
unidentified
There's ways to set it up.
eddie bravo
Yeah, you set it up.
joe rogan
It's exactly the same thing.
That's exactly the same way to say it.
unidentified
Dude, trust me.
eddie bravo
I got guys, all they play is rubber guard.
unidentified
Oh, I bet, man.
eddie bravo
High-level guys come through all the time, and I see it.
I witness it.
I'm looking at them like...
That's all I play.
unidentified
No, you go down that rabbit hole, you're in trouble.
eddie bravo
Imagine how crazy I would be pushing some shit that I don't even play.
joe rogan
Damn, good leg kick.
eddie bravo
How crazy would I be?
It just takes a lot of time.
joe rogan
And did you invent this?
Girls, this is a hell of a scrap!
Oh!
Beautiful takedown.
Circa McMahon's base is ridiculous.
unidentified
100%.
joe rogan
He invented it, he named it, the whole deal.
That's a big deal.
bryan callen
That's innovative.
joe rogan
There were some guys that had did some interesting guards in the past, and Nino Shambri had a lot of really cool stuff, but what Eddie did was he put together a system, especially a system that's really effective no-gi.
unidentified
And named it.
joe rogan
Yeah.
bryan callen
Well, he's...
And then he came up with the Eddie Bravo Invitational, which I've heard you guys say is way more exciting to watch.
eddie bravo
Did you watch it?
bryan callen
No, but...
eddie bravo
The greatest CBI ever.
unidentified
Aren't we doing one Saturday, Eddie, in Austin?
eddie bravo
That's an Onnit Invitational this Saturday.
joe rogan
Eddie, look at this.
Look at this.
Total potential electric chair position.
She was back there.
She was in a position where she could have totally done it.
bryan callen
Sarah gets...
unidentified
Sarah's base is ridiculous, man.
Being an Olympic-level wrestler, she'd be tough to deal with.
eddie bravo
What Sarah McMahon needs to do is free her right knee and then go to three-quarter mount.
That's all she's got to do.
That's the Damien Maia route.
bryan callen
Damien Maia is something else.
eddie bravo
She's got really good control here.
bryan callen
Have you ever rolled with Damien?
eddie bravo
Nope.
He'd probably fuck me up.
unidentified
He's a beast.
bryan callen
Well, he's bigger than you.
joe rogan
Well, he's just...
He's so, like...
unidentified
He's a master.
joe rogan
You know what I love about what he does?
It's so old school.
bryan callen
Yeah, it doesn't look like he's doing much, but he's on top of you.
joe rogan
He's back to his roots, dude.
He's cutting right through all your bullshit.
unidentified
Yeah, there's no...
It's no jibber-chabber, it's just cutting through the bullshit.
joe rogan
He's just cutting right through all your bullshit and putting the smoosh down on you.
bryan callen
When you watch really high-level wrestlers, it's the same thing.
They're not doing anything fancy.
They're doing arm drags, single legs, but they're so flawless with it.
joe rogan
Well, you know, when he did it to Carlos Condit, I was shaking my head like, God damn.
unidentified
Everyone.
eddie bravo
Dude, look at the Condit though.
She's got an arm triangle right here.
Check this out.
joe rogan
Oh, look at this.
Look at that.
Sarah McMahon with the arm triangle, but she's still in the guard.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
She's trapped in the half guard.
eddie bravo
Yeah, it would be over here with some of my guys.
joe rogan
Why should she get out of this half guard?
There's not enough pressure here.
eddie bravo
You don't really need to.
You don't really need to.
She could take her time right here.
She could just wear her out right here and eventually pull that right knee out.
Yeah, just go to three-quarters You don't really even need a mount.
unidentified
She needs to use her left foot to free that leg.
eddie bravo
She knows what's up.
This is how you set it up.
Inch by inch.
joe rogan
That's beautiful.
eddie bravo
That's the best defense right there.
Turn away!
Turn away!
If she would have just held on to that leg, it's over now.
joe rogan
She's going out.
unidentified
She said, oh, you do jiu-jitsu, bitch.
eddie bravo
She would have just held on to her leg.
She would have been fine.
unidentified
Powerful Sarah McMahon!
No, she turned into the choke.
You go away from that choke.
eddie bravo
I will say this.
Sarah McMahon is the master of a side choke.
It wasn't about just choking.
It was the 17 steps before that, how she set it all up.
unidentified
For sure.
eddie bravo
Man, she was on that shit.
unidentified
Not to mention, she's a fucking horse.
eddie bravo
That helps, too.
She gets it.
unidentified
She got the chopping block.
Hey dude, you can't go hoarse!
eddie bravo
You can't!
unidentified
Because Shane Carwin, he barely knew jiu-jitsu.
If he got that on you and he was a fucking Cridesdale, he'd crush your fucking neck.
bryan callen
If you guys want to see grappling and what it looks like, literally it's fine.
Kale Sanderson's gold medal match I think against this Korean guy watch what he looks like he's like going for a walk in the park like he's doing ankle pics and weird shit where it looks like he's literally kind of like you know kind of moving at half speed.
joe rogan
You know how good Yoel Romero is?
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
Yoel Romero beat Kale Sanderson twice.
bryan callen
Twice.
joe rogan
That's how scary a freak athlete you are.
unidentified
I like that right there.
I like Bisbee's chances in that fight.
eddie bravo
Look at that shit.
Look at that shit.
unidentified
Beautiful.
eddie bravo
Super constrictor.
She would've just held that arm.
She slipped.
unidentified
She turns into it like a fucking move.
eddie bravo
All she had to do was hold onto the leg and it was done.
unidentified
Hold on, Eddie.
Let me know if I'm wrong here.
Hold on the leg and turn away from the choking pressure.
eddie bravo
It doesn't matter.
At that point, you're just like that until they let go of the grip.
As soon as they let go of the grip, you're gone.
bryan callen
So you hold on to her leg?
eddie bravo
No, she held on to her own leg.
Her own leg.
unidentified
Because the arm that's in the choke, you don't want it like this.
eddie bravo
You want it like this.
unidentified
If it's like this from the elbow here, you're good.
eddie bravo
If you're like this, you're choked.
So you want it here.
So what this does is this keeps it here.
Holding your own leg, you're like this.
joe rogan
If someone does that, do you go to the impaler if they try that defense?
Do you try to go knee to chest?
eddie bravo
I always do arm triangles from the mount.
I never let them have the opportunity to grab their leg.
joe rogan
You just take it right from the mount.
eddie bravo
I never even leave them out.
Because if I leave them out, they're going to do that.
If you know that defense, it stops all arm triangles.
joe rogan
Yeah, but from that impaler, I remember trying that defense on you.
eddie bravo
That's a mount.
That's kind of a mount.
joe rogan
Sort of.
eddie bravo
That knee is going to be in the way of this, right?
But you can push that motherfucker out.
So really, the best thing to do is just do a mount where it's kind of like knee on the belly, but your knee is on the ground, so it's like a deep knee on the belly.
That's the best spot right there.
There's no defense.
joe rogan
Wait a minute.
Which knee is on the ground?
Say if you're on left.
eddie bravo
It's like knee on the belly.
Same side that she just got, right?
So it'd be your left knee on her belly.
But instead of having the knee actually on the belly, it's actually all the way through.
It's like your shin across the stomach.
Knee really heavy on the mat.
Because if you had your knee on your belly and they knew the defense, they would fucking pop that motherfucker up and grab their leg.
And now they're good.
joe rogan
I see.
So you have the left knee on the right side of their body and the shin across the top.
eddie bravo
So there's no way they could grab their leg.
joe rogan
So there's more of a mount.
It's more of a mount.
eddie bravo
You might as well mount, but that is actually better than a mount.
joe rogan
Well, I know when you would do it, a lot of times you would do it, we would call it the impaler.
Do you still do that?
eddie bravo
No.
I don't even need it.
joe rogan
That's terrifying, that impaler.
Thank God you stopped doing it.
It was horrific.
eddie bravo
It's always there.
joe rogan
It's a knee right to the sternum.
It's just massive pressure.
eddie bravo
As you put the side choke in.
joe rogan
So you put the side choke in, and then the knee is on the sternum.
Jesus Christ, that sounds terrible.
Right into your neck.
eddie bravo
It's actually sternum, neck.
It's like both, both.
joe rogan
I mean, it doesn't work on everybody, but that's the best way to stop that defense where you're grabbing the leg.
For me, it was always the impaler.
The impaler always stopped that because you wanted so bad to get that knee off your chest.
You were willing to let your legs go, just try to push that knee aside, and then you just fall right into the chest.
eddie bravo
I'd only go to the impaler when...
The regular shit ain't working and he's got like a little angle.
He's got a little spot.
It's not lined up perfect.
So now we got to go fuck it.
Let's just hold this and drive a knee right in his neck.
And that's usually what makes him tap.
joe rogan
Dude, you did the impaler on me one time and I really thought my chest was going to crack.
I thought my sternum was going to crack.
bryan callen
Jesus.
joe rogan
It's a terrible feeling because like someone's cranking down on your neck.
You got head and arm trapped in there, right?
You got that arm choke in there.
And then they got their knee on your chest.
bryan callen
Eddie, how long did you wrestle for?
You were a wrestler.
Two years.
Just two years?
But you were good, huh?
eddie bravo
I sucked.
unidentified
Really?
eddie bravo
Terrible.
I got one takedown in two years.
bryan callen
When did you realize, when you started rolling in jiu-jitsu, when did you, one, realize this was it?
Like you want to do it?
eddie bravo
That's true.
But I did learn the twister there, which is actually the wrestler's guillotine.
Oh, you weren't laughing about my shitty wrestling?
unidentified
No, I was.
One takedown in two years is what I was laughing at.
eddie bravo
But I didn't get shit out of takedowns or anything.
brendan schaub
I was actually pretty good at arm drags, but you know how they say it's like a bike?
eddie bravo
I think after like 30 years, it's not like a bike no more.
You gotta start all over.
Your body completely forgot it, and you are a fucking white belt, because I suck at arm drags.
In high school, that was my shit.
But what was also my shit was, I was a leg rider, because I was weak.
While everybody was supposed to be lifting weights, I was on the side of the fucking building, just like...
So I had to be a leg rider.
Every wrestling team had three leg riders.
bryan callen
In all my wrestling, my whole life, I never once threw legs in.
I don't know why.
Some guys were so good at it.
eddie bravo
No, no, most people don't.
There's only like three per class.
And I was one of those guys.
It was the weak guys.
unidentified
You guys should start a podcast.
Nico...
eddie bravo
It's Wrestling Talk, buddy.
unidentified
Hey, bud.
bryan callen
It's Wrestling Talk.
eddie bravo
Nicko Chia was the guy who showed me the Twister.
I forget his first name.
brendan schaub
Something Nicko Chia.
bryan callen
Fuck, I forget his first name.
eddie bravo
He's the one who showed me the Twister.
unidentified
Eddie, I got a question for you.
What do you think's next for your boy, Tony Ferguson?
eddie bravo
Alex.
Alex Nicko Chia.
That guy is the guy who...
unidentified
Shout out to Alex.
eddie bravo
Yeah, that's what I'm trying to do.
unidentified
Shout out to Alex.
eddie bravo
Alex Nicoccia is the guy who showed it to me.
bryan callen
Alex Nicoccia should be a fucking t-shirt.
unidentified
Hopefully he's still alive, right?
eddie bravo
He is still alive.
unidentified
You're positive?
joe rogan
Juliana Pena.
eddie bravo
Dude, I'm not, I'm 46. I'm not 80. I'm just saying!
The guy was in 11th grade and I was in 9th.
unidentified
Oh, gotcha.
I thought he was the coach.
eddie bravo
And Jesse Barrios.
He was the only other leg rider.
Shout out to Jesse, too.
I learned the twister in high school.
And then when I went to jiu-jitsu, I was like, shit, I already got one move.
So my takedowns suck, but I got one move.
I couldn't fucking do it on jiu-jitsu players because in wrestling, you could do it because you give up backs.
You know, when you give up a back, you stick a leg hook in, it's really easy, but in jiu-jitsu, giving the back is the ultimate sin.
So I was like, damn it, no one's even giving me their fucking back.
How am I gonna do this?
The only move I know in grappling.
And then so slowly, I had to figure out how to get to the wrestler's guillotine, which later became the twister because Higgin and John Jacques named it that shit.
I didn't.
Right, right.
bryan callen
Jean-Jacques was your original teacher, right?
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
What a great guy.
unidentified
Is this a promotion for these two fighting?
What's going on right now?
I can't hear shit.
joe rogan
It seems like it's Aldo gets the title now because he won the interim title with Frankie and now they're showing Pettis highlights the Showtime kick.
bryan callen
Damn.
unidentified
It's a little weird he's fighting for a title, yeah?
joe rogan
Because he's lost two of his last three?
What happened in his last fight?
He won.
unidentified
He won.
joe rogan
He beat.
Who did he beat?
unidentified
Oliveira, right?
joe rogan
That's right.
He submitted him.
bryan callen
Yep.
joe rogan
And before that, he lost.
Look, he's still Anthony motherfucking Pettis, dude.
He was still the UFC lightweight champion.
unidentified
It's a brutal game.
eddie bravo
You're going to lose some, you're going to win some.
Doesn't mean like, oh, it's over for him.
Just keep fighting.
unidentified
I'm not saying it's over.
No one's saying it's over.
brendan schaub
I'm saying it's a little strange that he's getting a title shot.
unidentified
That's all I'm saying.
joe rogan
My question.
eddie bravo
At 45 now.
At 45?
unidentified
45 is fucking stupid.
eddie bravo
Anthony Pettis was the 55 champ.
bryan callen
He was the champ.
unidentified
Excuse me, sir, two years ago.
eddie bravo
Yeah, so 45 is like, yeah, he's going to be right there in the mix.
Come on, man.
That's Anthony fucking Pettis at 45?
That's a nightmare.
brendan schaub
Okay, well, Max Holloway won nine in a row, and he's just getting a title shot.
joe rogan
It is true.
eddie bravo
Shit's not fair in the UFC. You know that.
joe rogan
That's a good point.
unidentified
I'm just saying.
I love Anthony Pesce.
brendan schaub
He's one of my favorite people in the UFC. I'm scared of what's going on.
eddie bravo
I'm scared of the direction the UFC's going for some reason.
unidentified
You should be.
joe rogan
What are you scared of?
eddie bravo
It used to be that it was Dana and Lorenzo and Frank was right there.
You had faces.
You could actually get to them and make a change.
It was like doing the right thing for the sport.
It was all about...
We're all here.
We're working together.
We're doing the right thing for the sport.
The right rules for the sport.
We're trying to make it right.
And now...
Dude, those guys don't even fucking own the UFC no more.
unidentified
What's a business, Eddie?
eddie bravo
Like, who owns it?
What's going on?
Dude, that shit, when you start looking at it.
joe rogan
The Illuminati owns it.
bryan callen
Faceless, faceless people.
joe rogan
Basically.
unidentified
Tower 7. Well, not faceless.
There's Ari Emanuel, Dana White, Conan O'Brien.
There's a few celebrities who own it now.
joe rogan
Well, Ari Emanuel in particular.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
I met Ari.
I talked to Ari.
He's a very nice guy.
unidentified
I'm sure he is.
joe rogan
Very smart guy.
He listens.
Wicked smart.
He really wants to do the best thing they can for the sport.
Who knows what kind of changes they'll make once they settle in.
But these guys are masters of entertainment business.
They know how to handle things.
They're big fans of the sport.
brendan schaub
But also, on the fighter side, that Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association is the first time where it's a serious issue for them to address.
joe rogan
Let me ask you this.
How many different unions are there?
I heard there's more than one.
unidentified
I'm not sure, but I'll tell you this, Joe.
It's Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association.
Which I'm part of.
brendan schaub
Tim Kennedy, so there's four board members, right, and they just announced it.
They have over 200 fighters right now on board with it.
unidentified
So it's the first, like, legit movement of it.
joe rogan
Now, what does that entail, like, when you're on board?
So that means, like, if you go to fight for, you know, you have a UFC fight coming up.
Like, how does that, or a Bellator, right?
Because it's for everything, right?
unidentified
It's for everything.
joe rogan
It's for any organization.
brendan schaub
Correct, but it's mainly made up, especially right now, of major UFC players.
joe rogan
Here's a good question.
Does that hold true for Ryzen and stuff like that?
What about if you fight overseas?
unidentified
I'm not sure.
brendan schaub
I know their focus is UFC because it's the top dog.
unidentified
So if you start at the top, it's going to trickle down.
joe rogan
So the idea is that they're going to have a set...
A set amount of money we're going to make per fight.
unidentified
Correct.
brendan schaub
And they're modeling after the baseball union, which is like the best in the world as far as compensation and equal rights.
eddie bravo
So this is good stuff?
This is good stuff.
unidentified
Great stuff.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit, okay.
joe rogan
Think about the guys on board.
Is there any potential?
Yeah, well, a bunch of UFC fighters, which is interesting.
brendan schaub
Tim Kennedy, Donald Cerrone, which is a big one, GSP, TJ Dillashaw.
joe rogan
What's really weird is what Tim Kennedy said about Bjorn.
He was like a necessary evil.
unidentified
He's basically like, who's your boy from Balco?
Not your boy, but you've had him on the show.
joe rogan
Victor Conte from Balco?
unidentified
So you know how Victor Conte was on the dark side?
brendan schaub
And then he came out and was like, I know how this shit works.
unidentified
Now I'm for the good guys.
I'm going to tell you what they're trying to do.
That's what Bjorn's doing.
joe rogan
Interesting.
unidentified
He's like, when they say this, this is what he means by this.
joe rogan
Wow.
Well, you know, who the fuck knows, man?
unidentified
Because I was suspect when I saw Bjorn.
brendan schaub
I was like, I can't be, you know, I've heard stories about him, so I'm like, I don't want to be part eight.
unidentified
And then when I talked to Tim Kennedy, that motherfucker talked me into running through a wall.
I got the phone on the camera.
joe rogan
All right, buddy.
Who's taking Mike Goldberg's spot?
unidentified
Mike Goldberg's not part of the MMA Association.
There's rumors he was, he's not.
That'd be kind of conflict of interest.
But the thing is...
joe rogan
You're thinking about Bill Goldberg?
unidentified
Yeah.
eddie bravo
The dude from the WWE, yes.
No Whoopi Goldberg.
joe rogan
Like, how high are you?
Yeah.
bryan callen
Goldberg made a comeback, man.
unidentified
Yeah, he did.
bryan callen
He played in the NFL, which I didn't know.
eddie bravo
Isn't that a show called The Goldbergs?
joe rogan
He's a giant dude.
eddie bravo
You're on it?
You're on The Goldbergs?
bryan callen
Yes, I am.
eddie bravo
That's the one where you're like a high school...
bryan callen
I'm the coach.
eddie bravo
You're a coach.
bryan callen
I'm not only am I the coach, but they're doing a spin-off on ABC of the characters.
eddie bravo
Holy shit!
That's amazing!
bryan callen
It's cool.
joe rogan
Yeah, that's awesome, dude.
eddie bravo
Dude, it's about time, dude.
You're a funny motherfucker.
unidentified
Thank you, brother.
eddie bravo
You may be lost in politics and shit, but dude, I'll never forget that New Year's fucking Eve, dude.
bryan callen
You laughed, right?
eddie bravo
Dude, you had me fucking...
Dude, you crushed my soul when you were doing that.
bryan callen
I heard you laughing from the wings.
By the way, if you like laughing, this weekend, Fort Lauderdale Improv.
That's all I'm going to say.
Come see me.
joe rogan
Oh, that place is the shit.
bryan callen
Dude, my favorite place to perform.
joe rogan
It's my favorite place to perform.
How often do you go there?
You go there a lot.
bryan callen
I don't go there nearly enough.
I go there once a year.
That's it?
Yeah, and I love it so much.
We're going to bring the fighter and kid there.
We have to.
joe rogan
It's a fun spot.
bryan callen
Dude, I'm telling you.
joe rogan
People in Florida are fucking savage.
Dude, I love Palm Beach.
bryan callen
My greatest shows are at the Fort Lauderdale Improv.
Palm Beach, Florida.
joe rogan
Florida people are savage.
bryan callen
Eddie, I could hear you laughing.
It was so great.
We did the Chicago Theater.
3,500 people.
And I'm listening to Eddie cackle in the wings.
It was beautiful.
unidentified
This will be a fun fight.
Are you guys doing some kind of New Year's show at the Orpheum?
joe rogan
That's fucking insane.
Yeah.
unidentified
Oh, you know what I did?
Tony Hinchcliffe is there, right?
joe rogan
Tony and Joey Diaz.
unidentified
Tony just started his podcast.
I was his first guest yesterday at the comic store.
It's called The Pony Hour.
I named it for him.
joe rogan
That's perfect.
unidentified
He was like, I don't have a name.
I said, sir, it's The Pony Hour.
eddie bravo
How did the Orpheum...
Come on.
bryan callen
That guy's got some nipples.
eddie bravo
You ever play there before?
joe rogan
He's got some nipples.
I'll suck those.
Bill Burr did New Year's there last year.
unidentified
Sorry, man.
joe rogan
And I was just looking for a place to do New Year's, and when the agents look for theaters that are available, that's the one they came to me with.
eddie bravo
That's a good one, man.
joe rogan
Oh, I know the place from EBI. I love that place.
eddie bravo
That's our home, man.
joe rogan
I was excited.
unidentified
That's our goddamn home, dude.
joe rogan
I met the owner.
I met your boy.
He's great.
eddie bravo
Steve Needleman is the baddest motherfucker on the planet.
unidentified
How many does it seat?
joe rogan
Shout out to Steve.
bryan callen
Where is this?
Where is the...
joe rogan
It's the Orpheum in downtown LA. How many does it seat, Joe?
800?
I would say 1,900.
unidentified
Oh damn, that many?
eddie bravo
Big shout out.
bryan callen
Dude, he did 3,500.
unidentified
Well, no, no, no.
I know.
Excuse me, sir.
brendan schaub
No, I'm just saying the Orpheum, when I was there for Eddie, I didn't know it sat that many people.
joe rogan
Pretty sure.
unidentified
Maybe because we were down on the front.
How many?
joe rogan
3,500?
I think it's, no, no, no, 19. I think it's 18 or 19. Something like that.
I thought maybe it was 1,000.
eddie bravo
Oh wow, bigger than I thought.
Something like that.
joe rogan
It's a beautiful theater, man.
That's one of those places where you look at it and you go, wow.
eddie bravo
When Steve first asked me to do EBIs there, because we were doing them at the Florentine Gardens initially in Hollywood, I looked at the website and I'm like, oh man, this guy doesn't, he obviously doesn't know what jiu-jitsu is.
Like, this is too classy for jiu-jitsu.
Like, we're dirty motherfuckers.
So I just turned it down.
And then he, again, he said, just come down and check it out.
And I'm like, okay.
I went down and checked it out.
I'm like, dude, this is like, you do like the Oscars and shit here.
You know, why would you want jujitsu?
But he's so into jujitsu.
The guy that owns Orpheum, he's, dude, man, he's doing privates with Compella.
joe rogan
That's awesome.
eddie bravo
And he's so, he competes.
He's 65 and he's competing.
He's a strong motherfucker.
He's such an awesome guy.
And he, dude, when we show up, he's got his EBI shirt on, he's got his 10th Planet shirt on.
The guy who owns that whole fucking thing loves EBI. He seemed like it when I talked to him.
joe rogan
He's a super fan.
So when they brought to me the options of places to go, that was one of the first ones.
I was like, yeah, I love that place.
unidentified
Did you want to be in LA, Joe?
joe rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's 1987. Goddamn.
unidentified
That's way bigger.
eddie bravo
When is that New Year's Eve?
What date does that fall on?
On a Thursday?
joe rogan
I think it's Saturday.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
Is it Saturday, Jamie?
Yeah, it's Saturday night.
eddie bravo
New Year's Eve is on a Saturday night?
joe rogan
Yeah, because there's a UFC on Friday.
Because UFC didn't want to compete with New Year's Eve.
So that's the Ronda Rousey-Amanda Nunes fight.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
And Max Holloway and Pettis.
unidentified
No, that's not true.
joe rogan
No, no, no.
unidentified
That's next week.
joe rogan
That's next week.
unidentified
That's December 10th.
joe rogan
Man, that is a short one point.
No, what's the other fight?
It's not Max Holloway.
When is that fight?
unidentified
Max Holloway and Anthony Pest is December 10th.
joe rogan
Right.
What is the other fight next week?
What is the other fight?
unidentified
The other fight is Cowboy Cerrone and Matt Brown.
joe rogan
Oh, that's right.
Matt Brown.
See, I have those both in the same level of expectation.
eddie bravo
I just don't have the energy.
joe rogan
I look at Pettis Holloway, and then I look at...
Look, I think...
Matt Brown is always death.
It's always destruction.
It's always hell.
unidentified
They've also trained together.
They've trained together at Muscle Farm.
joe rogan
How was that?
Do you know anything?
Give us the inside.
unidentified
Whenever they tell me something, I don't know about it.
joe rogan
Don't do that.
But listen, everybody knows I'm a big Matt Brown fan.
unidentified
Cowboy's a killer.
joe rogan
I'll tell you that.
Cowboy at 170 is a video game character.
unidentified
Dude.
joe rogan
He's a video game character.
unidentified
He mercs people in training.
He's a killer.
He mercs people.
joe rogan
He's doing something different now because he's not fucking his body up to make 155. We're seeing 100% Cowboy.
He's got so much don't give a fuck in him that to take a guy like that and extract all the water out of his body and drain him and deplete him, you deplete some of that spirit that makes him exceptional.
When that guy's healthy...
A lot of what he carries into the octagon with him is like this zest for life, and it comes out when he's fighting.
That gets depleted when your body's depleted.
unidentified
Look at Conor.
How good did Conor look at 55?
joe rogan
Insane.
unidentified
That's where he should fight.
joe rogan
I believe so, too.
unidentified
It's like 70 is obviously way too much.
He should have like, holy shit.
joe rogan
He should have Aldo come up to 55 for a let's just get this done fight.
unidentified
Oh, Aldo said that.
All he goes, let me beat the winner of Max and Pettis.
I'll win that belt.
Now I'm coming at 55. He should.
joe rogan
I'd love to watch that.
unidentified
Well, but Conor can be like, what?
I beat you in 19 seconds.
Let me rematch Nate, or I might fight Floyd.
But doesn't Jose have trouble losing that weight, too?
bryan callen
Doesn't he have a motherfucker of a time getting a 45?
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
He'd be better at 55, too.
bryan callen
This guy's got tits.
joe rogan
He's a cute robber.
Jose's had some real issues.
unidentified
Big issues.
joe rogan
Where the fuck is he from?
unidentified
That whole camp.
joe rogan
He looks tough.
What is that?
What is that?
Chiss now.
bryan callen
God damn it.
unidentified
Oh, no, he didn't.
joe rogan
He just walked right up that guy.
unidentified
God.
My new favorite fighter.
joe rogan
He's my favorite fighter.
eddie bravo
Now when you said that, I go, he's going to be a star.
joe rogan
Let me see.
unidentified
What is he?
joe rogan
A fucking serious killer?
eddie bravo
Conor McGregor.
bryan callen
Dude, he scares me.
joe rogan
That looks so legit.
bryan callen
Oh, my God.
He fucking scares me.
eddie bravo
One of those countries.
unidentified
Hey, what if he just gets knocked out and a vicious head kick in five seconds after that?
bryan callen
I gotta sit on your lap for this dude.
joe rogan
Yeah, I'm scared.
bryan callen
Dude, look at him.
He's got some tits!
joe rogan
Look at this sociopath!
Meanwhile, then he goes to put his glove tap.
That's some bitch-ass shit.
unidentified
Wow.
joe rogan
You can't do that after you do the other thing.
unidentified
Definitely can't.
eddie bravo
Never bet against black.
joe rogan
Oh, he's gonna get lit up.
brendan schaub
Powerful reincarnation of Michael Clark ducking.
bryan callen
Hey, man.
unidentified
He does look like him.
joe rogan
Oh, good uppercut.
unidentified
Oh, he's not fucking all out?
eddie bravo
He's already hurt.
joe rogan
He's already hurt.
unidentified
You don't do a throat slash and not fucking come out of booming.
eddie bravo
What if he gets knocked out, though?
joe rogan
Then it's really embarrassing.
unidentified
Then he will never do that ever again.
joe rogan
He made his play.
I mean, it's a psychological good move, but it's kind of negated by the fist bump.
The fist bump brings the confidence level back up a solid 10%.
It sure does.
bryan callen
Well, Cannoneer has got to get over the fact the guy's face looks so intimidating.
And once he does, he's going to win.
joe rogan
Yeah, Brian, I don't think he's looking at his face anymore.
Now they touch gloves again.
There's a lot of unity going on here, a lot of brothership.
unidentified
A lot of unity, dude.
That's getting touched with the right hand.
joe rogan
That's going to favor Cannoneer.
bryan callen
Cote Lava keeps his hands down, guys.
It's about fundamentals.
I've always told you guys, it's about fundamentals.
joe rogan
I believe I've heard that from you before.
unidentified
Thanks, buddy.
joe rogan
That's something you really...
eddie bravo
Look at this guy, he's an animal.
bryan callen
I do recreational boxing, and I'm a blue belt.
joe rogan
You know, my problem lately with MMA is that I've been watching too much Muay Thai.
I've been watching a ton of Muay Thai lately.
bryan callen
You're a stickler for technique.
joe rogan
Well, I just recognize there's another level to be achieved that you're seeing, especially with striking.
With a lot of guys, you're seeing a certain level of technique on a consistent basis because they have to concentrate on a lot of different things.
Yeah, I know.
I understand that.
But it's hard when you have a few guys that have achieved this Rory McDonald sort of spectrum where they can kind of do everything really good at a very high level.
Like, you remember when Rory McDonald fought JT Torres and Metamoras?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
JT Torres is a very high-level jiu-jitsu guy.
Rory hung in with him, almost got Kimura, didn't tap, almost got his arm broke, but ultimately went to a draw.
bryan callen
Watching him fight, what's his name, the really high-level French striker...
unidentified
Tarek Safney.
joe rogan
Tarek Safney.
unidentified
Yes.
bryan callen
And he came out with a whole different style.
joe rogan
I was watching him.
bryan callen
He's from Belgium.
joe rogan
He's from Belgium.
unidentified
But Joe, isn't that the evolution of the sport?
Like Roy started MMA when he was 12. MMA! He didn't specialize in anything.
brendan schaub
So you're gonna see, like you look at fucking homeboy, uh, uh, what's his name?
unidentified
With the spikey hair, looks like, uh, Zach Morris.
joe rogan
Yeah, Sage Northcutt.
unidentified
He's also a kid who started.
joe rogan
So you're gonna get this wave of guys who Well, Sage started with karate, and he's way more of a karate guy than he is a jiu-jitsu guy.
It's not that he's not better at jiu-jitsu now.
I mean, he definitely showed that in his last fight, and he's submitted guys in the past.
He's just a young kid.
bryan callen
He's a freak, too.
He's genetically...
joe rogan
A fantastic athlete.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
Who's a young kid who's got a lot of life to learn.
unidentified
Is he on the December 10th card against Mickey Gall?
When the fuck is that?
bryan callen
Did you see him rip that apple in half?
unidentified
That's a barn burner.
joe rogan
When is that fight?
unidentified
That's not that impressive, sorry.
joe rogan
When is that fight?
No, that fight is somewhere else.
unidentified
It's in December, I thought.
Am I wrong?
joe rogan
Why do I feel like that fight is somewhere else?
brendan schaub
Mickey Gall versus Sage Northcutt is a fun fight.
joe rogan
I feel like that fight is somewhere else.
unidentified
Mickey Gall's a motherfucker, too.
eddie bravo
He gets a full guard pretty easily.
unidentified
He's a motherfucker.
joe rogan
He's a very good jiu-jitsu.
brendan schaub
I think he's more talented than Sage Northcutt.
joe rogan
Oh, I think he's extremely talented, period.
unidentified
And I love how he calls the guys out.
bryan callen
He's a big kid, man.
joe rogan
Like, we've seen two real good fights from him, and of course one of them was against a guy.
unidentified
Oh, there it is.
joe rogan
There it is.
unidentified
Saturday, the 17th, UFC Fight Night.
Two cuties.
Van Zandt versus Michelle Watterson.
bryan callen
Two cuties.
joe rogan
Oh, boys, I'm not going to be here for that.
unidentified
Alan Joban, too.
How dare you, Joe Rogan.
joe rogan
Goddammit.
unidentified
You're out of favor.
joe rogan
This is the problem with having family.
unidentified
Where you going, man?
Where you headed, sir?
bryan callen
Sometimes I wish I was going on vacation, man.
joe rogan
Didn't you just go?
I go on a lot of vacations, son.
unidentified
I'm not mad at it, sir.
joe rogan
I wish I could.
I'm in the I-just-want-to-live-life phase of my life.
I just want to experience things.
unidentified
I'm not good at vacations yet.
joe rogan
I want to go places.
I want to experience things.
I get better all the time.
You know what helps me?
Edibles.
unidentified
Really?
joe rogan
Holler at your boy?
bryan callen
Really?
joe rogan
Holler at your boy?
unidentified
No.
Holler at your boy?
joe rogan
If you can get them, you gotta, but, you know, there's certain places where you can get them.
Don't bring them, though.
unidentified
They're pretty easy to get.
joe rogan
Don't bring them.
Definitely not worth it.
unidentified
I bring my vapor everywhere.
joe rogan
Do you?
unidentified
When we do live shit, I bring them everywhere.
Shut the fuck up.
I mean, TSA? We're homies.
Me and TSA are cool as fuck.
That's Brian.
Clear pass?
What's up?
joe rogan
In a few years, there's going to be places where they have these spots where you could vape up at the airport.
They have wine bars.
And right next to those, there'll be counselors.
unidentified
Be a therapist?
joe rogan
People go deep and just start fucking crying and thinking about their dad.
unidentified
I just use it to calm down and turn my brain off.
I don't do it during the day.
bryan callen
This dude is heavily muscled.
joe rogan
Which guy?
The white guy or the white guy?
bryan callen
They're the white fella.
joe rogan
Yeah, you're looking too much at the white guy.
Black guy's built better.
unidentified
The black guy's jacked.
bryan callen
Yeah, he's jacked.
joe rogan
They're both jacked as fuck.
Brad's like, the white guy.
unidentified
The white guy's leaner.
joe rogan
I can identify with him.
No, look, they're both jacked.
bryan callen
They're both jacked.
joe rogan
But that was a confused opening.
You gotta talk to that guy about strategy.
unidentified
We really do.
joe rogan
Don't ever walk up through the slash and then touch gloves.
unidentified
That was all just for a place, sir.
Let's touch gloves.
Let's be friends.
joe rogan
Well, unless you're the motherfucker of motherfuckers and it doesn't matter.
You come out and Conor McGregor run with a straight left and just put him away.
And it doesn't matter if you touch gloves with him.
unidentified
I agree.
joe rogan
Do you remember when Conor McGregor talked a freight train full of shit against Dennis Seaver and then beat his ass?
unidentified
Beat his ass.
joe rogan
But when they got into the octagon before the fight, he went to shake hands with Dennis Seaver and Dennis Seaver wouldn't put his hand on it.
He goes, fuck you.
And then he went out and murked him.
unidentified
Yeah.
You can't do that to an old ass Dennis Seaver.
Dennis Seaver was in there like stiff as fuck, only had that spinning back heel kick in his wheelhouse.
joe rogan
I understand, but, you know...
unidentified
Dennis Seaver's like, I'm from Germany, you fuck.
We're not having this.
And then just got mollywomped in Boston.
joe rogan
The world is a better place because of Conor McGregor.
unidentified
100%.
How about he got his boxing license, Joe?
He has boxing license.
Did you see that?
joe rogan
Yeah, good for him.
unidentified
Did you see what he said?
joe rogan
Did you see Oscar De La Hoya drunk as fuck talking about Canelo Alvarez?
He was talking about Conor McGregor fighting Canelo Alvarez.
unidentified
I love Oscar.
Silver up, bud.
joe rogan
I'm a giant Oscar De La Hoya fan.
unidentified
Me too.
joe rogan
Super fan.
unidentified
People forget how fucking talented the gold is.
I saw his first pro fight at the forum.
eddie bravo
Fuck the dude up in the first round.
joe rogan
When he lit up Julio Cesar Chavez, I said, I don't give a fuck what anybody says.
That boy's legit.
bryan callen
One of the greatest of all time.
eddie bravo
I was torn.
I was torn.
I saw that closed circuit TV at the LA where the Clippers used to play.
unidentified
What was that?
eddie bravo
Not the LA Forum, but the LA... The Great Western Forum?
No, no.
It was the LA Arena, Los Angeles.
Fucking the Clippers Arena.
They had closed circuit.
Remember when they used to do that?
You'd go to an arena and watch the screens of the boxing.
joe rogan
Yeah.
eddie bravo
I was a big Oscar fan, a big Julio Cesar Chavez fan.
I was torn.
I had to go with the one who was more Mexican.
Makes sense though.
You know what, the real Mexicans are like, Julio can't even speak English.
joe rogan
Listen to this for a second.
I'm going to tell you how legit Oscar De La Hoya is.
He fought Julio Cesar Chavez and Bernard Hopkins.
bryan callen
And Manny Pacquiao.
joe rogan
Yeah, and Manny Pacquiao.
But he went all the way the fuck up.
unidentified
And Sugar Shane.
joe rogan
And Sugar Shane.
It went all the way up to Bernard Hopkins.
unidentified
What the fuck is that?
joe rogan
Bernard Hopkins, who was the 175 pound world champion.
He went up to him.
eddie bravo
What about his fight with Fernando Vargas?
unidentified
A lot of shit.
joe rogan
A lot of shit talked before that fight too.
unidentified
Good looking dude too.
joe rogan
Very good looking dude.
Hey, ask your boy.
unidentified
Ask your boy.
joe rogan
Hush, hush, hush.
I'm on all that.
unidentified
Ask your boy Aubrey about Hush Hush up on all that.
No, I'm just saying.
joe rogan
Hush Hush up on all that.
unidentified
No, I'm not gonna say it!
joe rogan
Don't mention specific names.
unidentified
So what?
bryan callen
Hey man.
joe rogan
Yeah, listen.
People have fun.
bryan callen
Let's protect Oscar.
unidentified
I love Oscar.
Dude.
joe rogan
I love Fernando Vargas.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
That guy's spun.
He's getting lit up.
eddie bravo
He got punched and spun.
joe rogan
Bro, hard elbows on top.
bryan callen
Shouldn't have gotten taken.
eddie bravo
This is a good fight right there.
joe rogan
You know, what's really cool about MMA is that you can't really be the very best at everything.
You could be the best at putting it all together for your specific body, the best at handling pressure in your division, but you can't be the best jujitsu guy, the best kickboxer, the best wrestler.
unidentified
No.
You don't have time.
joe rogan
There's so many super athletes out there.
It's almost impossible for one person to be the very best at everything.
That's one of the things that makes MMA so exciting, is because you see this collision of different strategies.
And you'll see one strategy work for a long time, and you go, hey, ground and pound is where it's at.
Remember when Vitor Belfort got up to 240 pounds?
Because that was the motherfucking Mark Coleman era.
Oh, you're talking about the phenom.
Mark Coleman was just tackling dudes and smashing their fucking faces, and everybody panicked.
bryan callen
Do you remember when you interviewed him?
unidentified
He was so jacked.
bryan callen
Joe interviewed him one time, and this was like literally 15, 16 years ago, and Joe interviewed him, and Mark goes, Joe goes, so what's your strategy?
And Mark goes, I'm going to beat the fucking shit out of him.
joe rogan
No, no, no, no.
He was drunk.
You got scared.
I did get scared.
unidentified
He liked some beer.
joe rogan
But I love Mark.
Mark and I have been friends for a long time.
So even though I was scared, I was reasonably sure he wasn't going to hurt me.
But he picked me up like a pillow.
Like I was a pillow.
And he spun me around in the air.
unidentified
He did?
Mark Coleman.
How long ago is this?
Hammered Mark Coleman.
How long ago?
joe rogan
Many a day.
Dude, he's so strong.
bryan callen
I remember you said to me, I said, Joe, you were stammering.
You go, hey man, I was fucking scared.
joe rogan
He's so strong.
I felt like I've never felt lighter.
I was like, there's gravity.
unidentified
He goes, I'm gonna pick him up, throw him on the ground and beat the fucking shit out of him.
Who was he gonna fight?
joe rogan
This is what he said.
unidentified
He goes, I'm gonna take him down, I'm gonna ground and pound the fucking shit out of him.
joe rogan
I was asking him about an upcoming fight.
bryan callen
Hey, you stammered.
You went, um, um, um.
eddie bravo
I'll never forget when I met him, the first time I met him, it was after he got beat by Maury Smith.
And if you remember, he was supposed to crush Maury Smith.
unidentified
Yeah.
eddie bravo
The kickboxers coming.
And at that point, striking was useless.
At that point, striking was useless.
And Mark Coleman emerged after Hoist.
So here comes Maurice Smith, the striker.
He don't know any jiu-jitsu.
He don't know wrestling.
He's going to get fucked up.
But he beat him on cardio.
Right?
Because remember, Mark Coleman kept taking him down.
bryan callen
And leg kicks.
eddie bravo
He kept taking them down.
joe rogan
You gotta also give credit to Frank Shamrock.
Frank Shamrock worked a lot with Maury Smith before that fight.
One of the things they developed is a really good butterfly guard for Maury's.
Maury's kept elevating.
Mark's hips kept moving around a lot.
eddie bravo
He had a very hard guard to pass.
Shout out to Frank Shamrock.
joe rogan
Right away?
Maury Smith?
eddie bravo
What Maurice Smith had that most guys didn't have in the early days is you couldn't pass his guard.
He had a very good butterfly guard and he knew how to retain.
He used lockdown and shit back in the day.
So Mark Coleman kept taking him down at will, but he couldn't finish him off.
He didn't have an injury.
joe rogan
Here's another point.
I love Maurice Smith.
Here's another very important point.
If you are an outstanding world-class kickboxer like he is, the same principles of defense apply on the ground, with ground and pound.
It's harder to move your head backwards, but a guy like that is significantly harder to hit than a guy who's not used to taking punches in front of someone.
Not even if he freezes up.
So when he sees these big bombs coming, he's doing a lot of this, he's grabbing you, he's not going to sit there and...
Of course, there are guys that are overwhelming.
There's guys like, I keep bringing up Krokop vs.
Gonzaga.
The second fight, when Krokop got revenge, when he got on top of Gonzaga, I'm like, when you see a world-class striker drop elbows on your head from the guard, he doesn't need to be in the mount.
He doesn't need to be in side control.
Krokop just needs that amount of space, and he is opening your head like a fucking coconut.
unidentified
He shattered my nose.
joe rogan
Oh, dude.
eddie bravo
Yeah.
joe rogan
I was so impressed by that elbow he dropped on Gonzaga.
I'm like, see?
I knew it.
I knew it.
If you could get an Ernesto Hoost on top of you on your mount, do you know what kind of devastation that guy could do to you?
bryan callen
On top of that, didn't you say he was the strongest guy you'd ever...
unidentified
By far.
You know Mirko was supposed to fight Wanderlei soon in Ryzen?
joe rogan
Yeah, Wanderlei pulled out.
I don't know why.
I don't know why, but if Mirko was saying all kinds of crazy shit about him, he might get injured.
I don't know.
Who the fuck knows?
eddie bravo
Let me finish my Maurice Mark Coleman.
unidentified
I would love to see the camp back then, by the way.
Mark Coleman.
eddie bravo
Hammer house.
Just bags.
joe rogan
Logs on your back, running up hills.
eddie bravo
When Maury Smith fought Mark Coleman, his pre-fight footage was hidden running upstairs.
It was either that fight or his fight with Conan Silviero, but I remember him, he'd be interviewed, I'm Maury Smith, I've been kickboxing, I'm a world champion, and they'd show him running upstairs and shit in a football stadium.
That was his B-roll.
And that's how he beat Mark Coleman.
And he beat him on car.
Mark Coleman was fucking holding his knees.
He was like bent over.
And Maury Smith just started fucking kicking him and beating the shit out of his legs.
joe rogan
Let me tell you this.
Maury Smith was probably the first guy to ever talk shit in the middle of a world championship fight.
I was ringside for that.
This is back when I was the post-fight interviewer.
He was going, come on, Mark.
Grant and pound me, Mark.
Come on, Mark.
unidentified
Damn.
In between kicks.
Come on, Mark.
joe rogan
He's like, come on, Mark.
bryan callen
By the way, people forget, Maury Smith was every bit of 230 pounds.
joe rogan
How about this?
Maury Smith was the first guy to incorporate high kick in a world championship fight when he fought Conan Silviera.
He fought Conan Silviera in World Extreme Cage Fighting.
Remember that shit?
Conan's a big dude.
That was back when John Peretti was the interviewer.
He was doing my job.
John Peretti.
Shout out to John Peretti.
unidentified
Shout out to John.
joe rogan
Controversial.
I love that guy's commentary.
I always loved his commentary.
bryan callen
John Peretti was the stunt coordinator.
He worked in stunts on Oz.
joe rogan
That guy sent me a fucking direct message on Twitter one day.
I know everybody gets busy, but I'm not shitting on him.
He sent me a direct message like, I always had respect for you.
I can't believe that you wouldn't have me on your podcast.
Who said that?
John Preddy.
So I sent him a Twitter message back.
I said, dude, I'd love to have you on my podcast.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Whoever said that is definitely incorrect.
unidentified
Come on by, son.
joe rogan
I was always a fan of John Preddy.
unidentified
You never heard back?
joe rogan
Never heard back from him.
But if I did hear back from him, but if he hears this, I got nothing but respect for John Peretti.
I enjoyed his commentary back in the day.
I thought he was fun and honest, and he knew the fuck, he knew a lot of shit about fighting.
unidentified
God, dog, we gotta scrap here.
Our boy's getting fucked up.
bryan callen
Yeah, he's getting tired.
unidentified
The guy doing the throat slashing?
Get worked!
Yeah, he's getting beat up.
He's getting beat up, taking some shots.
joe rogan
But like, John Paredes doesn't get the respect he deserves.
There was no one before him.
You have to understand, this guy was like literally one of the very first guys who was a high-level mixed martial artist, did jujitsu, kickbox, and was doing commentary for MMA. He was like one of the very first guys.
eddie bravo
And they owned the show, that battle cage show or something.
joe rogan
Exactly, which had some great fucking fights.
Brought Hal Gracie to the world.
Why is he so controversy?
Why is he so comfortable?
bryan callen
He's very direct.
joe rogan
He was one of the first.
eddie bravo
A lot of promoters have personalities and they're like, you've got to have a certain personality to deal with the fighters, the staff.
bryan callen
Man, it's fucking stressful.
But John spoke his mind.
John, I had many conversations with him on the set and that guy was not interested in being a diplomat or your friend.
He was just very direct and very honest and had the confidence.
By the way, built like a brick shithouse, by the way.
joe rogan
Yeah, we had good conversations back when I used to work for the UFC back in 97. I never got to know him well, you know?
And then I took a break, and then the UFC, they sold it, and then Peretti wasn't there anymore.
bryan callen
Keep your hands up, bro.
joe rogan
Nice back fist.
bryan callen
I like the back fist.
eddie bravo
Back to the Mark Coleman thing.
I never finished the Mark Coleman thing.
Let Eddie Brado finish the Mark Coleman story.
So after all that...
Maurice Smith beats Mark Coleman.
I go to a UFC in Louisiana.
I meet Joe there.
Joe's doing backstage commentary.
I go down there with Ricky Rocket, drummer from Poison.
We're hanging out.
We're like, let's go see a UFC. It's in a small 3,000-seat arena.
Just a bunch of crazy motherfuckers in Kemper, Louisiana.
1997, when Frank Shamrock...
Double-legged Igor Zinoviev and broke his calavicle, and that was the end of the fight.
That was when Mikey Burnett beat up fucking Eugenio Taddeo.
That's old school shit.
Most y'all don't remember that shit, but that's old school shit.
I was actually there live, met Joe.
Vito was there.
unidentified
Remember, Vito had a white...
eddie bravo
Miami Vice.
It was awesome.
But he was all young and shit.
But anyways...
I ran into Mark Coleman.
joe rogan
That's when Eddie Bravo and I became friends.
I was like, look at Vitor.
He's on my fucking set of Miami Vice.
We were just cracking up.
That was pre-weed for me.
eddie bravo
Yeah, he was like 19 years old.
Looked like a fucking buff ass.
unidentified
Weed changed your life?
eddie bravo
Enrique Inglés.
But anyway, so I run into Mark Coleman at that show.
This is the end.
I promise.
We're ending.
joe rogan
All that shit was a setup.
eddie bravo
I run into Mark Coleman.
unidentified
All that shit's a setup.
eddie bravo
And I'm like grilling.
I'm like asking him all these questions.
I'm like, so this is after the Maurice Smith fight where he gasped.
I go, dude, I go, what are you going to do?
What did you learn from that fight?
He goes, what are you going to do different?
He goes, brother, look down on my feet.
I look down.
He had jogging shoes on that Nike.
He goes, I'm running, brother.
I'm running.
joe rogan
I'm running.
Increase his cardio.
unidentified
That's hilarious.
eddie bravo
He goes, look at my shoes, dude.
I got tennis shoes on and we're at the UFC. I should be having some fucking boots on or something.
I got tennis shoes.
He's going to run sprints after the press conference.
unidentified
I'll give you a recent story.
It's not to shit on Mark Coleman.
I sat next to him at a live belt where I went to and he had some of the best stories of all time.
But he is a chatty Cathy.
I was listening to him tell stories.
I missed every single fight, man.
He's a great dude.
joe rogan
I had the best stories of all time.
Was he drunk?
Here's my advice in the fucking future.
You DVR the fights.
You go back and you watch them.
You enjoy time with one of the fucking Hall of Famers.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
eddie bravo
No, I enjoyed my time.
joe rogan
You have an opportunity to sit right next to Mark Coleman while he's hammered.
unidentified
He was the destroyer.
He was the destroyer for a while, man.
joe rogan
And you should have been buying him beer and leaning your ear in his direction.
unidentified
I did.
joe rogan
That's what you should have been doing.
I did.
unidentified
He wouldn't give me an itch either.
I was squished in there like a motherfucker.
The fans bought him a Gillian drink.
I didn't have a chance to buy him a drink.
One drink after the other.
He blew up!
And then he kind of had a little downside.
eddie bravo
But then he won that Pride fucking Grand Prix.
joe rogan
And he came back strong.
eddie bravo
He was like, dude, he was fucking yoke as shit.
unidentified
Remember how fucking crazy his body was?
eddie bravo
Mark Coleman and Pride.
Dude, he was like Lou Ferrigno.
unidentified
He's a legend.
joe rogan
He's had some surgeries lately.
I remember when he choked out Dan Henderson with that scarf hold.
Remember that?
He had him like a side headlock scarf hold type situation.
I remember when he had- Not Dan Henderson, excuse me.
Dan Severn.
Did I say Henderson?
unidentified
Dan Severn.
joe rogan
I meant Dan Severn.
Dude, that was his shit.
eddie bravo
Mark Coleman for a while, that was his shit.
I'm going to headlock you and fucking...
That's a legit move, by the way.
joe rogan
When you're that strong, and that's the last thing you said, hey, brother, let me tell you something.
Strength is a skill.
Strength is a skill.
eddie bravo
He's strong, but that's a skilled move.
I know this.
unidentified
It's true.
It is, though.
eddie bravo
I know a Brazilian doodop.
He would do that.
He's 175 pounds, and he was really good at just taking that side headlock and just fucking balancing and squeezing.
unidentified
Oh, Shane Carr would have popped his head like a zit doing that.
eddie bravo
It's not just a strongman move.
It's actually a real move that people just don't explore.
But there's a guy named Duda, and he fucking tapped me with that shit.
175 pounds, like a big dude.
joe rogan
Dude, I was very talented.
Hey, before I forget, what was the doodah?
There was a move from rubber guard.
eddie bravo
It's a rubber guard move.
It's like in the rubber guard family.
joe rogan
After the show.
eddie bravo
You're trying to get a zombie, but you can't.
It's halfway through, your hands through.
joe rogan
Right, I remember it.
eddie bravo
And you just do a bicep crusher with your legs.
joe rogan
I remember it, but I don't remember how to do it.
This guy's getting crazy.
eddie bravo
That guy has a whole system around her and there's nobody on the planet like that motherfucker with that shit.
I've never seen anybody from the guard setting up wrist fucking bicep smashers and flipping and rolling people.
unidentified
We've seen about 30 seconds of the fight.
What the fuck?
38. About 38 seconds.
This one, people were giving a stand ovation.
It looked pretty good.
joe rogan
Yeah, well, it's always interesting when one guy gives the fucking...
unidentified
Caboosh!
joe rogan
Much better.
bryan callen
Good boxer, this guy.
joe rogan
The neck slice.
Yeah, he definitely was way more calm on his feet when he stood in front of him.
And it was like, well, you also realize this dude was kind of gassed out.
Got a little emotional before the fight.
You know, you're either a killer or you want everybody to think you're a killer.
Yeah, it's an act.
And the killers are like Fedor, who never did any of that stupid shit.
He never got emotional.
Look at Cain.
Look at Cain.
Cain Velasquez is my all-time favorite weigh-in face.
Because he doesn't give a fuck.
unidentified
Nothing.
joe rogan
You can talk all the shit if you want.
I'm not going to be a little nervous.
I'm going to have a full tank of gas, and I'm going to rain bombs down on you until it's all over, bitch.
bryan callen
Yeah.
When does he fight next?
unidentified
December 30th.
joe rogan
He's fighting December 30th, but man, there was just some...
unidentified
He needs surgery, though.
joe rogan
What the fuck does he need surgery on?
I don't want to hear that.
It's like his 12th surgery since he's been in the UFC. But you can't say you've got a fight coming up and then afterwards you're going to get surgery.
Why not?
Because that's a ridiculous thing to say.
unidentified
That's the life they live, brother.
joe rogan
I understand, but to say it publicly seems pretty ridiculous if there's insurance involved.
unidentified
That's a good point.
From a business move, but as a fan, you gotta appreciate the honesty.
joe rogan
That's true, too.
He goes, really?
unidentified
I should have surgery?
joe rogan
That's true, too.
brendan schaub
But I want to beat this motherfucker so bad and get to the title shot, I'm going to wait and do it after.
joe rogan
Well, here's a good question.
eddie bravo
Look at BJ looking good!
joe rogan
He does look very healthy.
He looks very lean.
Let me ask you this.
eddie bravo
Very lean.
joe rogan
Do you think that insurance should cover all of the injuries sustained during training, which of course all of them are?
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
100%, right?
I agree with you.
unidentified
They're worth $4 billion.
joe rogan
So, is that the case right now?
Like, what does insurance cover now?
Does it only cover things that happen in a fight?
unidentified
No, it covers...
brendan schaub
I'm almost positive you'd have to ask when you're UFC boys, but I'm pretty sure it covers when you're in training camp for that fight.
joe rogan
You know what I'm saying?
brendan schaub
Like a certain amount of weeks outside of training camp as you're preparing for the bout.
unidentified
But if, let's say, I have nothing scheduled and I get hurt, it doesn't cover that.
joe rogan
So if that's the case, then what he said was actually kind of gangster.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
You're right.
Very gangster.
unidentified
Super gangster.
joe rogan
Because he's already covered by insurance, and he's going to come in and say, look, I know I'm kind of injured here, but I'll deal with it and beat your ass.
unidentified
Yep.
How great is that?
joe rogan
That's pretty gangster.
bryan callen
Good old Mike Brown warming up.
joe rogan
Apparently, Frankie Edgar had a fucking pretty significant knee injury leading up to the fight with Jeremy Stephens.
unidentified
Well, how about Verdum?
brendan schaub
They said he went into the fight against Travis Brown with a broken foot.
joe rogan
Meanwhile, he jumped and sidekicked him in the face.
unidentified
And landed that shit like the Matrix.
And wobbled that motherfucker.
joe rogan
First move of the fight, man.
unidentified
So gangster, man.
brendan schaub
Well, fighting's hard enough, let alone with broken foot, neck.
joe rogan
Travis Brown had two crazy things happen to him in that fight.
There's that kick that he opens up with like, where the fuck is this coming from?
And then when Verdum threw that punch and hit his finger.
unidentified
Remember?
joe rogan
Oh, that's awesome.
Verdum threw this crazy...
He snapped his finger.
bryan callen
And you wouldn't have waited a second, right?
He's fair fucking game there.
unidentified
He's like, hold on, I went, excuse me?
I'm gonna kick you right in the face.
bryan callen
Oh, that's awful.
joe rogan
It's a weird thing, man, because if he says, excuse me, I'm done, it's over, my finger's broken, then they stop the fight, then you're correct to not attack him.
unidentified
But he went, just give me a second, let me fix my finger.
joe rogan
I mean, but here's the thing, I didn't want that fight to end right there, did you?
unidentified
It's not about that.
As a fighter, I want that fight to end.
joe rogan
But do you want to leave room for an emotional mistake in a time of duress?
Like that?
Where someone...
bryan callen
I do.
joe rogan
Like, UK, are you ready to go on?
He goes, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I am.
And then jumps back in.
Like, there's moments where something can go wrong where you don't even realize, like, is there a malfunction in my glove?
Why is my finger bent sideways?
Hold on, hold on, what the fuck's going on?
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
There is moments, but where do you draw the line?
eddie bravo
Where do you draw the line?
You take it back to Game of fucking Thrones.
That would let him fix that fucking thing.
unidentified
But where do you draw the line?
Ah shit, I'm gonna come around.
You're about to snap my arm.
joe rogan
No, I'll give you the answer.
unidentified
The answer might be.
eddie bravo
It was like an eye poke.
bryan callen
The answer might be.
unidentified
Because this is why I'm gonna shit on both of these.
Oh damn, look at this.
brendan schaub
The reason why that doesn't count is because it didn't happen from him going for a takedown against his cage.
unidentified
It happened because Verdum threw a punch aimed at his hand and it broke his No, no, no.
joe rogan
Travis had his hands up, and Verdum threw one of them crazy Chuck Liddell-style overhands, and it landed on the fingers.
unidentified
Correct.
It was a strike that broke his fingers.
joe rogan
Big difference.
bryan callen
Yes, you're right.
joe rogan
A function of that injury is, you could argue, is poor technique, right?
Not poor technique.
That might work with MMA or with boxing gloves, rather, or Muay Thai gloves, you know, to have your hands over there.
bryan callen
Sure, but you could say the same thing about a guy who's got his hands up.
joe rogan
But to have your hands open like this, and to have a kick coming at you and your hands open this way.
unidentified
It also helps him, too.
joe rogan
Or a punch, rather.
unidentified
It also gives him advantages, too.
joe rogan
Because it gives him some more space.
Let's see if we can see it.
Let's see if we can see it.
unidentified
Talk to Jon Jones about having an open hand.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Well, that's offensively, though.
Let's look at the punch.
eddie bravo
Good rebuttal.
I like that rebuttal.
joe rogan
That's a good point.
unidentified
But, at the same time, how often do you practice punching fingers?
eddie bravo
How often do you practice punching fingers in the gym?
Once a week or twice a week?
unidentified
I don't practice snapping arms or knocking guys out either.
joe rogan
Oh, you don't?
eddie bravo
You don't practice arm bars?
You don't practice arm bars?
How could you not practice arm bars?
unidentified
We don't practice snapping the actual arm.
eddie bravo
No, arm bars aren't snapping arms.
joe rogan
Guys, we're looking at this fight right here.
This is the punch that landed.
unidentified
It's an offensive move by Verdun.
joe rogan
But I can't fault anything Travis did.
That was a freak accident.
Because he's doing the right thing.
unidentified
But Joe, that doesn't matter.
joe rogan
As far as holding his hand up.
unidentified
It doesn't matter.
joe rogan
You're right.
No, listen, I agree with you.
brendan schaub
Now, if he did it and his finger caught in his shorts and you're like, fuck, give him a second limb to figure out if he wants to continue.
unidentified
Here's the question.
- An offensive move, that damaged the finger.
joe rogan
- Breaking the finger is the same as breaking the face, breaking the oracle. - It's no different than breaking your arm, your shoulder, your neck, your head. - But we have some weird sort of distinction, right?
Which is why you can say timeout for that, but you can't say timeout if you get hit in the nose.
bryan callen
That's right.
unidentified
Well, you can't if you're Verdum, because Verdum went, there's no fucking timeouts in one afternoon.
Everyone's like, that's ridiculous!
Why is that ridiculous?
But it's not ridiculous.
joe rogan
And I brought that up in the post-fight interview.
I was really clear.
Like, you were well within your rights to go after him.
Correct.
That was inside the rules.
eddie bravo
But for the audience, and for let's just be cool about it, okay, your finger got caught.
I don't fucking want you to die.
bryan callen
But that's up to it.
unidentified
There's millions of dollars on the line.
You know what I mean?
eddie bravo
It's like, come on.
joe rogan
But hold on a second.
Teddy's got a good point, too.
eddie bravo
It's like, the audience wants it to go on.
Like, we're like, we paid.
joe rogan
And it's not like...
It's like no big deal.
eddie bravo
And for that one guy, it only makes sense for the guy that threw the punch.
That's the only guy that it makes sense.
unidentified
He inflicted damage.
eddie bravo
Everybody else is like, come on, man.
joe rogan
He inflicted damage where he couldn't continue.
eddie bravo
But nobody's trying to break fingers with punches.
If that was part of the sport, like, you've got to practice breaking fingers.
unidentified
It's not illegal.
joe rogan
It's not illegal.
Let me knock down some walls here.
unidentified
It's not illegal.
bryan callen
Give Joe Rogan the floor.
joe rogan
Let me knock down some walls here.
You're both right.
Yeah, it is absolutely...
Listen, it's absolutely...
eddie bravo
One of the rules, I'm right.
joe rogan
Hold on!
eddie bravo
End the fight!
joe rogan
It's absolutely an injury caused by someone executing a technique, but wouldn't you like the fight to keep going?
bryan callen
Stop the fight!
unidentified
That doesn't matter!
Would you like...
joe rogan
Stop the fight!
Would you like...
Cain Velasquez, or excuse me, Fabricio Verdum to win on technical knockout due to a finger break.
unidentified
Joe, that doesn't matter.
joe rogan
I agree.
I agree with you.
bryan callen
Here's the answer.
joe rogan
I agree with you, but I'm not saying within the rules.
I'm saying, what do you want to see?
bryan callen
Let me knock some walls down.
Guys, let me walk...
Brian's going to knock some more walls.
unidentified
Let me wrap this shit up.
bryan callen
Let me wrap this shit up.
joe rogan
You gotta stop talking over each other.
It's brutal.
bryan callen
But I'm the wise one.
Let me wrap this up, guys.
eddie bravo
Okay.
bryan callen
Let me cork it up.
eddie bravo
Quote something from the Washington Post for us.
unidentified
It's fair to say...
bryan callen
Hold on, no.
It's fair to say...
It's fair to say you know it when you see it.
joe rogan
Yes.
bryan callen
Right?
And it's up to you.
There are certain things in life.
There's discretion.
Know it when you see it.
Leave it up to the fighters.
Leave it up to the ref.
You'll know it when you see it.
It's going to be a case-by-case basis.
eddie bravo
I say, Brendan, you win.
unidentified
Fucking boom!
eddie bravo
You win, Brendan.
bryan callen
Write that down, America.
joe rogan
Brian Callen just won.
bryan callen
Thank you.
joe rogan
Brian Callen just won.
eddie bravo
He won, but Brendan won.
joe rogan
Look, there's just choices.
Every situation is different.
But also, you don't know what happened to your finger.
I mean, he just got cracked.
He doesn't know what happened.
He might have thought his finger, because it wasn't working right, was tied up in his glove.
He had a look at it.
I don't think Verdum is wrong.
I think Verdum's 100% right.
But I think there's a moment of confusion.
It's not like Travis got head kicked and was confused because he got almost knocked out.
I think when his finger was fucked up, he didn't necessarily know what was going on.
Yeah.
It was split second.
I think whether or not that's true, I don't know.
Only he knows.
But I'm saying there's a total possibility.
unidentified
Oh, no.
I'm sure you get your finger smashed.
eddie bravo
Joe's the author mediator, right?
No, I'm just like...
bryan callen
Joe's right.
unidentified
Joe's like, bro.
joe rogan
I tried to look at the whole thing.
I tried to look at the whole thing.
unidentified
Brother, I am.
I'm saying, even if he was like, oh, shit, my finger's broke.
I'm not going to be like, damn, is that broke?
You all right, bro?
All right, let's keep going.
eddie bravo
On the street, what would you do?
unidentified
I broke your fucking finger.
Here comes a head kick to finish it off.
Wow.
Because we have millions of dollars on the line here.
Yeah.
It's not anger.
joe rogan
It's professional sports.
No, no, no.
I agree.
You're right.
You're right, too.
eddie bravo
Brendan wins.
joe rogan
No, I agree.
Listen, here's the thing, man.
unidentified
I don't want to argue with him.
And then he said, oh, I broke your finger.
Hey, here's your coach.
joe rogan
I'm literally not even arguing with you because I see your point 100%.
eddie bravo
I see what kind of guy you are, too, Brendan.
unidentified
I see.
joe rogan
But I also, as a person who's greedy, when I'm at home, I want to see them keep fighting.
bryan callen
I'm with you, Joe.
joe rogan
As a fan, you want to see them keep fighting.
eddie bravo
Me, too.
unidentified
What about Fabricio?
joe rogan
You're right.
I'm greedy.
You know what?
I'm a fan of Fabricio, and I would like to see him win, but there's a feeling that I get from someone winning by a broken finger that I don't like.
bryan callen
Correct.
joe rogan
I like the feeling.
Fabricio won a clear decision.
He beat the shit out of him.
eddie bravo
What's the problem, then?
unidentified
No, no, there's no problem.
What the fuck is the problem?
joe rogan
The problem was the loss.
unidentified
Brendan's like, yeah, he won, but he should have won by broken finger.
He should have won by broken finger.
joe rogan
Here's a better question.
Here's a better question, because it's an illegal move.
How much of an effect should an eye poke be?
Because I really feel like...
unidentified
Changes the game.
joe rogan
I think not only does it change the game, like Mitrione versus Travis Brown.
Here's a case where the foul went in Travis's favor.
When he poked Mitrione.
unidentified
And stood by the commission, too.
joe rogan
Yeah, stood by the commission.
And he did it twice.
It was two eye pokes.
And then Mitrione, who was winning the fight, then goes to losing the fight.
It's a significant factor.
One eye?
It's almost so significant that if you're marginally impaired from it, you might want to stop the fight.
unidentified
I agree.
How do you feel about...
joe rogan
So it's just crazy because in the moment, it's such a difficult, like, rational decision to make.
But if you're fucked up and you can barely see out of one eye, you're like, no, I want to keep going, I want to keep going.
unidentified
Joe, you've been poked in the eye.
It's terrible.
How long does it take before that bitch recovers?
It depends.
20 minutes?
Hey, man.
joe rogan
Some guys never come back from it.
Ask Michael Binkley.
Well, that was a kick, I believe.
unidentified
Still, I'm just saying his eye's fucked up.
joe rogan
But yeah, any eye injury could be, like, semi-fucked.
unidentified
When you get to scratch in the eye, is there a possibility that they're...
eddie bravo
They could design some kind of fighting goggle thing?
Is that a possibility?
joe rogan
We have to protect the eyes.
bryan callen
This is what I would say.
eddie bravo
Too many eyes are getting poked.
joe rogan
The only way you could do it is if you came up with some sort of adhesive, like some crazy, crazy glue shit that you could stick this fucking thing to your face where it's impossible to pull it off.
And works with grappling.
Well, that was the only way.
It would have to literally almost be like cups that covered your eyes, but were glued into your head, and then afterwards they put some solvent on.
But then we would find out five years later that fucking people are dying from cancer or brain cancer.
unidentified
Well, you know, four guys are soaking them in testosterone and shit in their eyes.
bryan callen
Well, in Planet of the Apes, when they make you dirty, they used to have a chemical that they would make your costume dirty.
unidentified
Did you read that in the movie?
bryan callen
In Planet of the Apes, the movie with Mark Wahlberg.
No, they found the stuff that they used was a chemical that doesn't leave your lungs.
joe rogan
Hey, can we please, as all fellow MMA fans, can we actually watch this fight?
unidentified
This is a fun fight.
joe rogan
This is a dope fight.
Jorge Masvidal versus Jake the Juggerfuck.
unidentified
He's pretty good, right?
Fuck yes.
bryan callen
Oh, he's a killer.
joe rogan
He's slick.
eddie bravo
Great boxer.
bryan callen
Great striker.
eddie bravo
A little too short.
unidentified
We gotta be honest.
He was Kimbo style before Kimbo.
joe rogan
But I gotta tell you man, Jake Ellenberger, coming off of that KO of Matt Brown, like he was on the death's doorstop.
unidentified
Dude, he had to beg for his job.
joe rogan
He had to beg for his job.
He said, please just give me one more fight.
They go, okay, Matt Brown.
He was like, oh my god, I can't believe this.
I'll take it.
And he's like, I'll take it.
And he went out there and stopped Matt Brown in one round.
brendan schaub
His manager went, come on Joe, give someone else.
unidentified
And Joe said, fuck it then, you're cutting it.
No, no, we'll take it.
We'll take it.
joe rogan
How do you know that happened?
eddie bravo
How does that get out?
How does shit like that get out?
joe rogan
Let's just not say that.
Let's not say that.
By the way, the narrative just got significantly weakened by your interjection of gossip and innuendo.
eddie bravo
What did you read that on the Washington Post?
joe rogan
Jake, the fucking juggernaut Ellenberger.
bryan callen
I got Ellenberger in this.
eddie bravo
The UFC section of the Washington Post.
Imagine that.
joe rogan
Come on, Jake.
I'm rooting for Jake.
bryan callen
All due respect to Masvidal, who's awesome.
I love Jake.
I love Jake.
joe rogan
Jake Ellenberg is a bowhunter.
eddie bravo
There's going to be a left-wing MMA and then a right-wing MMA. And they're going to get into their personalities and their lives.
joe rogan
Guess what?
Right-wing is going to win.
unidentified
Damn right.
joe rogan
It's going to be a real problem.
bryan callen
Right-wing eats meat and does sports.
joe rogan
And all the guys who have money that win a lot are going to be right-wing.
Fuck yeah.
unidentified
Ellenberg doesn't support NAFTA. All rights can invade MMA. That would be hilarious.
Masvidal is for the UN treaty of...
joe rogan
Masvidal had a hashtag, I'm with her, on his Twitter account for four hours.
We have screenshots.
eddie bravo
And it's like Republicans against Democrats.
It's red and blue.
In the future.
joe rogan
Oh my god, it is red and blue.
That's crazy.
eddie bravo
Republicans against Democrats.
joe rogan
It has to be that way.
Jake has more power.
No, not Masvidal can crack, dude.
unidentified
Masvidal will get knocked out if he plays this game with Jake.
joe rogan
Oh, dude, I don't know, man.
brendan schaub
Jake can knock him out on left hook, they play this game.
joe rogan
Masvidal can crack, dude.
He's the first guy to knock out Eve Edwards at MMA. True.
He head-kicked Eve Edwards back in...
bryan callen
Jake hits hard.
joe rogan
That was back in the Bodog fight.
eddie bravo
I would have never pegged Masvidal for a Republican.
joe rogan
Oh, good left kick to the body.
bryan callen
Oh, right hand!
unidentified
That hurt him.
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
Oh, Masvidal's fucking him up.
Jake's in trouble.
unidentified
Oh, he's in big trouble.
joe rogan
Oh, it's over, son.
eddie bravo
Oh, he's getting deep down.
joe rogan
Oh, that's it.
Oh, Herb Dean went the ass first.
He went ass towards him, hips towards him.
He was going to stop it.
eddie bravo
The ass was the...
Stay down, Jake.
That's what he tells him.
bryan callen
He goes, when you see my ass...
You got this, Jake is tough.
joe rogan
You see Jake come back?
No, he's not coming back.
You don't know.
eddie bravo
Herb Dean doing a great job, not stopping it.
Herb Dean doing a great job not stopping it.
bryan callen
Jake is tough as shit.
joe rogan
Herb Dean made the ass move.
You lean your hips towards the guy.
unidentified
When you see the ass, Masvidal is such a monster.
joe rogan
Dude, that shows you how good Herb Dean is.
That shows you right there how good Herb Dean is.
Look at this.
But Masvidal has got him pinned up against the cage.
Ellenberg has got to get some space.
There you go.
There you go.
You've got to circle left.
Circle left.
bryan callen
Don't let him box him back in.
joe rogan
Well, Jake still possesses that crazy fast twitch muscle fiber.
So if he can connect, he can crack you.
unidentified
Well, the last thing to go is power.
And Jake's always had power.
joe rogan
But when you get hurt, you always start reaching for that because you know you're not going to play a points game from here on out.
No.
Because you're diminished.
So you've got a few significant rounds in your chamber.
It's just a matter of how long it's going to take Jake Ellenberger right now to recover.
But here's the thing.
If he's been trained with Kurson, I think he has for this fight.
I know he has for this fight, as a matter of fact.
unidentified
He's been at Kings too, huh?
joe rogan
Training with Nick Kurson is a big thing, man.
Nick Kurson, who's that Marv Marinovich disciple, that guy's a wizard, man.
He knows a fuckload about strength and conditioning and getting guys ready for fights, both physically and mentally.
And I think he helped Ellenberger a lot with giving him the confidence with being in that insane shape to get ready for Matt Brown.
brendan schaub
There's no coach on the planet that can go, hey, you're going to get fucked up the first minute, and then we can work on that.
unidentified
You know what I'm saying?
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
There's no conditioning for that.
joe rogan
Right.
You're right.
There's nothing.
That's the X Factor.
But it's also like Ellenberger is a real veteran now and he's experienced those disappointing defeats and those super highlight knockouts.
Like the Matt Brown fight, like the Jake Shields fight.
bryan callen
He's composed after taking that beating.
Look at how composed.
unidentified
Ellenberger is super legit.
eddie bravo
And the best of all, Hillary loves him.
joe rogan
Do you know Ellen...
Oh, shut the fuck up.
eddie bravo
It's a joke.
joe rogan
Do you know that Ellenberger knocked out Pele Landy with one punch?
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
That was back in the Disney before.
In Bellator, right?
No, no.
I don't think so.
unidentified
I thought it was a Bellator fight night.
Is that right?
And he took it on short notice.
bryan callen
Masvidal is such a good boxer, though.
joe rogan
You might be right.
unidentified
Am I right on that, though?
joe rogan
You might be right.
It was some...
unidentified
Jake Ellenberger.
Oh, shit!
joe rogan
Masvidal went with the wheel kick.
Left kick to the body.
Oh.
Oh, Ellenberger slipped.
eddie bravo
Oh, shake his toe!
joe rogan
He broke his foot!
unidentified
His toe's stuck in the cage!
eddie bravo
You should let him recover!
joe rogan
What happened?
unidentified
I think he broke his foot or ankle in the cage.
eddie bravo
What do you do at this point?
joe rogan
This is hilarious, guys.
We're seeing exactly what we saw.
unidentified
Yeah, we are.
joe rogan
We're seeing exactly what we're talking about.
eddie bravo
Brendan's going to say, fuck him!
joe rogan
Is this fight stopped?
Is this fight stopped?
unidentified
And Joe's going to say, hey, give the guy a little fucking chance!
joe rogan
Well, I'm on both of your sides.
That's the problem, Eddie.
I haven't picked a side.
I'm on both of your sides.
eddie bravo
I didn't say what my side was at this point.
joe rogan
Hold on, controversial.
eddie bravo
I didn't say.
joe rogan
But what you did before when we were talking about the finger break.
eddie bravo
I said, at this point, he was getting fucked up.
unidentified
What did Jorge do?
eddie bravo
He was getting fucked up.
joe rogan
Hey, Jamie, give us some volume.
Let's find out what the hell happened here.
Here, Ellenberger.
unidentified
Sprints like a psycho.
joe rogan
He throws the kick, he slides in.
Toe goes BOOM! Oh my god, his foot went right into the cage.
eddie bravo
I get it.
unidentified
Look, it's stuck.
eddie bravo
I get it, I get it.
joe rogan
It snapped his foot.
eddie bravo
What do you think now, Brendan?
Tell me what you think.
unidentified
If I'm Masvidal, I wail away exactly like he did and win the fight exactly like he did.
There's too much riding on it.
eddie bravo
Dude, you're so fucking mean.
joe rogan
Okay, well the fight's over.
bryan callen
It is over?
joe rogan
The fight is over, yeah.
I see that's like a freak.
eddie bravo
I thought these were your homeboys.
joe rogan
This is what I feel like.
This is my take on this.
This is a great fight, a fun fight that ended with a freak accident.
I think Masvidal got in some great shots.
Ellenberger looked like he was staying calm.
But if you had to go to a decision off of the injury, you had got to give it to Masvidal.
unidentified
Yeah, 100%.
joe rogan
Masvidal was putting it to him.
Masvidal had him in a lot of trouble.
Look at this.
Slides in.
His toe went right in there and then he snapped it.
Oh, man.
Oh, no.
Oh, he just snapped his toe backwards.
unidentified
Are you going to change your stance now?
No, no, no, no.
eddie bravo
You're so ruthless.
unidentified
As a fan, I hope it goes on.
As a fighter, you murk him as fast as you can.
joe rogan
Well, hey, guys, let's look at it this way.
As people that love the sport, maybe we should redesign the bottom of the cage.
unidentified
Yes.
eddie bravo
I'm down for that, but it's not his fault.
It's not his fault.
His foot got caught in the fence.
joe rogan
That's not part of the game.
eddie bravo
It's not part of the game.
unidentified
You move to the left and he fucking slides in and he gets his foot caught.
eddie bravo
No, he did a flying knee.
joe rogan
Let me ask you this, as a person who's fought in the octagon.
Is there an argument for extending the lip a little bit?
So instead of tucking it in like that, extending it up and putting it in part of the cage, you could only have to go up a few inches and it would remove the problem of the edge.
unidentified
But you wouldn't be able to use that takedown offense of those guys against the cage?
You can dig your heels into it.
bryan callen
Does that make sense?
joe rogan
Well, that's kind of cheap too, isn't it?
bryan callen
Look at that body.
That caught him.
joe rogan
Well, that would help everybody then.
unidentified
Everyone.
joe rogan
Like having a little bit of...
Let's talk about that.
Having a little bit of fabric, pulled it through and up and connected to the cage.
That would be a good thing.
See, he slipped in there.
Oh my god, it's awful.
That's terrible.
Get your foot out.
Look, he's getting punched in the head and he's still trying to get his foot out.
unidentified
I hope they don't cut him.
Give him one more.
Give him one more, please.
100%, man.
joe rogan
He just knocked out Matt Brown that he has this controversial injury.
unidentified
We'll go say 100%.
joe rogan
Here's the problem with the controversial injury.
Masvidal is the one who got robbed here.
Because Masvidal was putting it to him before that.
unidentified
He still gets...
He won, though.
joe rogan
He won, but still...
unidentified
He'd be robbed if it was a draw.
Like, oh, he's injured.
joe rogan
Both guys.
I feel like both guys...
unidentified
Both are robbed.
joe rogan
Got robbed a little bit.
I mean, Ellenberger got robbed of a potential for a comeback.
unidentified
Correct.
brendan schaub
But justice was done because Masvidal, who was winning, and he still gets his win bonus and Jay got you.
joe rogan
It's not a happy justice.
It's not a justice that makes Whoville cheer and sing.
unidentified
No, not at all.
Whoville's not cheering.
joe rogan
Whoville's not cheering.
There'll be no singing.
unidentified
Nope.
Zero.
joe rogan
But yeah, I agree with that.
I think you're right.
When you and Eddie were going at it back and forth, I'm on both of your sides.
I'm coming from a fighter.
I get it.
Finger break.
It's a break.
It's due to an attack.
Look, honestly, any time you feel like you maybe should stop the fight, you should stop the fight.
Like almost every time for something like that.
Should you let a guy go if he can't see at all out of his right eye?
There's 50 seconds left in the round.
50 seconds.
It's for the title.
The guy's the champion.
He can't see.
He says he's fine.
What do you do?
eddie bravo
Stop it, Brendan.
joe rogan
What do you do?
It's a good question because sometimes guys go out and they win that fight.
unidentified
Case by case.
joe rogan
Case by case.
It's hard, man.
It is not easy.
unidentified
It's a tough kick.
joe rogan
It's not easy.
It's not fucking easy.
brendan schaub
I'm saying as a fighter and you're in there and you know what the magnitude of that win will do for your career and get you to the next level and your punch guy goes, damn, dawg, you got me in the eye.
eddie bravo
You're all about the winners.
unidentified
You're like, what?
No, no, Eddie.
eddie bravo
You're a winner.
unidentified
You're a fucking winner.
bryan callen
Hey, don't insult him with that comment.
joe rogan
You're right.
Look, you're right.
And that, you know, that might be part of the problem, right?
unidentified
It's like a killer instinct in the man.
bryan callen
Las Vidal looks like a different weight class.
unidentified
I know what you're saying.
joe rogan
Like, it's not just the ethics of winning or losing.
unidentified
Because you're like, God, let me get out of here and get a win and fucking get out.
No.
joe rogan
And get that bonus.
Yeah.
Is that an issue?
Is win bonuses or win bonuses an issue?
And did they ever exist in boxing before MMA started adopting them?
unidentified
Are they in boxing?
joe rogan
I don't think so.
eddie bravo
I don't even watch boxing.
unidentified
Boxing, that's not true.
joe rogan
I don't think so.
I don't think they are.
unidentified
No.
joe rogan
I think boxers, they fight for a purse.
unidentified
Yes.
And it's a flat fee.
Typically a flat fee and then you got your pay-per-view bonus.
joe rogan
But is there an argument that win bonuses make the fights more exciting?
unidentified
I don't know if you need them.
brendan schaub
Because people, I mean obviously they're aware of wind bonus, but no one's like, God, I've got to make this a siding and I'm going to go do this because hopefully I get the wind bonus.
eddie bravo
Here's the real question.
Tony Ferguson does.
That's his style.
unidentified
That's his style.
eddie bravo
He does.
He goes after it.
unidentified
Hey Eddie, I hate to tell you, whether it was wind bonus or not, he's going to fight like that.
That's Tony, that's in his blood.
joe rogan
Let me answer this question.
eddie bravo
He trains like that.
He wants to get that money.
unidentified
No, but he trains like that.
He's a fucking animal.
eddie bravo
I've seen him train six hours straight.
You know when people say, oh, I train eight hours straight, I train seven hours, and you're like, okay, you're taking all these breaks.
I've seen that dude.
He was training all goddamn day in Big Bear in altitude.
Man.
joe rogan
Six hours?
unidentified
Dude, hanging out with Tony Ferguson and Big Bear.
eddie bravo
Made me feel like a fucking little mouse.
unidentified
He's fighting Khabib next, yeah?
You know what I mean?
You know he's fighting Khabib next.
eddie bravo
I'm like, holy shit.
unidentified
Not only...
You know he's fighting Khabib next.
joe rogan
Where is it?
brendan schaub
They thought it was going to be in Anaheim, but they were like, ah, we're good in Anaheim.
Remember, they pulled the pay-per-view from Anaheim?
joe rogan
Is it pulled?
100%?
unidentified
Yes, they canceled Anaheim.
joe rogan
When did it get cancelled?
Today?
unidentified
Two days ago.
eddie bravo
So is that official?
Tony and Khabib?
brendan schaub
It was supposed to be on the Anaheim card, from my understanding.
unidentified
I thought that was like a hoax.
But that's the fight.
eddie bravo
But that's the fight?
Yeah, that's the fight.
joe rogan
That's the fight.
eddie bravo
It's either going to be that or Conor.
bryan callen
What a fight that's going to be.
joe rogan
Well, Conor wants to take some time off.
He's about to have his first child.
eddie bravo
Totally get it.
unidentified
Conor's fight is with WMU and Ari Emanuel.
It's not with Tony Ferguson.
joe rogan
You keep saying that, and it sounds like a goddamn mantra.
It's like, Donald Trump, KKK. How good is that fight going to be?
bryan callen
Khabib and Tony?
joe rogan
Conor McGregor's real fight is with Ari Emanuel.
Because it's true, Joe.
Put it on a placard.
unidentified
It's true, though.
joe rogan
Whoa, Dan's got a dime piece for a wife.
Are you in the negotiation room?
Maybe they're in a good place.
bryan callen
Who's his girl?
unidentified
Well, even if they're in a good place, that's the fight.
joe rogan
You're a little bit of a gossiper.
You like it.
You enjoy it.
A little bit.
unidentified
Hey, but is it not true?
joe rogan
Robert De Niro?
eddie bravo
Is that Robert De Niro?
joe rogan
Where does that come from?
unidentified
Yeah, that's Robert De Niro.
joe rogan
Good fellas.
unidentified
Good fellas.
A little bit.
joe rogan
Go get your shine box.
unidentified
Go get your fucking shine box.
bryan callen
That's a great scene.
unidentified
Stabs him in the neck of the pen.
joe rogan
It's a great scene.
A little bit.
So, yeah.
brendan schaub
But I'm not wrong, because when Conor goes, and I also have some inside info, but when Conor goes, I need a portion of the company now.
unidentified
I'm not fine if you give me that.
Who's his battle with?
Tony Ferguson?
It could be.
brendan schaub
They have no ownership of that.
They don't have control of that at all.
joe rogan
Well, here's why it's foolish to get a portion of the company.
Because he, by very nature of his dynamic being and presence, makes the pay-per-views that he's on spectacular.
He doesn't elevate the other pay-per-views.
So when he's there, is he saying, should he get a percentage of the pay-per-views?
Absolutely.
unidentified
He does.
joe rogan
He does.
Should he get a percentage of the company?
You would have to prove that you're making the company bigger.
No, you're not.
You're making yourself bigger, and he is, in my opinion, the most famous, but the fights that he draws for, he will get compensated for in an extraordinary manner.
Not yet.
The idea of him being an owner of the entire company based on what he's able to do in his own individual pay-per-views, that would be foolhardy.
unidentified
But what about marketing?
joe rogan
I'm obviously not a businessman When they have like fucking Affleck and like he can be listening to the country Why did Anaheim get pulled?
Because he didn't have a fucking title fight.
What does that mean?
That the UFC without gigantic stars like Conor McGregor or Ronda Rousey or Jon Jones or Pettison Holloway, without the killers, nobody wants to watch.
unidentified
Correct.
bryan callen
True.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
That's what's up.
You don't want to pay for pay-per-view.
unidentified
Superstars make the company.
joe rogan
Yeah, you can have some fights that are pay-per-view fights.
You can have some fights that are pay-per-view fights without world champions on it.
It is totally possible.
If you had a bunch of cowboy, Matt Brown-type fights on, and just a bunch of them, and none of them for the world title, you tell me you wouldn't watch?
You tell me you wouldn't watch Yoel Romero vs.
Luke Rockhold.
Not a draw.
bryan callen
I don't give a fuck!
joe rogan
I'm not talking to you, you goddamn communists!
Would you?
Or would you?
No, it's all socialism!
He's in unions and shit!
unidentified
The guy admitted he's in the fucking union before the show!
bryan callen
He's a left-wing!
He's a left-winger!
joe rogan
Black helicopters!
Black helicopters!
unidentified
Goddamn black helicopters!
bryan callen
And he knows what's up!
eddie bravo
Infowars, baby.
joe rogan
Oh, Jordan Meehan vs.
Emile Meek.
That's a good fucking fight, man.
unidentified
That's a fun fight.
Tim Kennedy, Kelvin.
joe rogan
Jordan Meehan on Cyborg, the male Cyborg, in Strike Force, landed one of the most devastating fucking elbow combinations to put out Cyborg.
And Emile Meek is the guy who beat up Toquino.
He knocked out Toquino when he first got kicked out of the UFC. When Jusmar Pojarez got kicked out of the UFC, he fought this mad Viking, Emil Meek.
He beat the fuck out of him.
He KO'd him in the first round.
unidentified
What's Takino doing?
joe rogan
He keeps getting KO'd.
He keeps getting KO'd.
unidentified
But is he ripping bitches' legs off in jiu-jitsu?
joe rogan
He fought Gary Tonin in a straight-up jiu-jitsu match.
It went to a draw, but Gary Tonin was dominating.
Gary Tonin was attacking him way more than he was attacking him.
unidentified
Dude, do you remember how scary Takino was?
joe rogan
Yeah, but here's the thing, Gary Tonin is maybe 30 pounds lighter than him.
No bullshit.
unidentified
Gary Tonin is best in the world.
I'm just saying, as far as MMA, remember when Tokino was, when it was Paul Ahari's?
Motherfuckers were terrified.
joe rogan
You know why I was fascinated about that fight?
It was not just that Gary Tonin is a motherfucker, but that John Donaher and I had this conversation about the entrances.
That Toquino uses.
The entrances.
How he establishes the entrance into his techniques.
He has some pretty obvious entrances.
He's kind of basic in the way he approaches leg locks.
His take was that they would always be one step ahead of him and eventually the strength would run out.
bryan callen
You can see it coming so you can stop it.
joe rogan
That's how high level and sophisticated that whole Eddie Cummings Henzo's?
Well, John Donahue is a big part of it.
But there's also a ton of guys.
Dean Lister contributed to that in a big way because he came over there.
There's a lot of leg-locked knowledge that came out of there.
unidentified
But even so, Gio still won EBI last night.
eddie bravo
I like the way you brought that down.
unidentified
You did bring it back.
eddie bravo
Eddie Cummings is the most feared leglocker of all time.
Eddie Cummings is the most feared.
I think he's the best leglocker.
bryan callen
I call him Eddie Leglock Cummings.
Well, I do.
joe rogan
You should probably stop talking.
bryan callen
Well, you guys can shut up.
joe rogan
Just for a moment.
bryan callen
I'll wrap it up.
I'll bring it back.
Keep going.
joe rogan
Who's winning this fight?
Anybody have any idea?
unidentified
I don't even know what fight it is.
It's Cejudo Benavides coming up.
joe rogan
Sorry, go ahead, Eddie.
eddie bravo
I've reffed most of Eddie Cummings' fights in EBI, and just me as just the jiu-jitsu guy, watching him right there on top of it.
I can't fucking believe it, man.
Eddie Cummings is just mowing through fucking everybody.
The whole Danaher crew, Gary Tonin, Gordon Ryan, they're fucking everybody up with those leg locks.
Man, they got a super sophisticated, highly complex leg lock system and, you know, once EBI came out, that's when it was exposed.
And me as a teacher, I thought, fuck, I thought I was already leg lock friendly enough.
I had a bunch of leg lock wizards all over the association.
They were everywhere.
I thought, I'm totally open to leg locks.
Me personally, I'm not heavy into heel hooks, but man, I love the fact that every class I have like three heel hook fucking just dudes that are obsessed with it.
But that wasn't enough.
Once EBI came out, I'm like, that wasn't enough.
Look with these guys.
When you obsess with leg locks in the system and every possibility and every counter, and the way Dana Hurst put that system together, man, I realized right away, I gotta get fucking mid-Evo with this shit.
So we did over the last couple years.
bryan callen
Do you feel like you're competing a little bit with John or anybody?
unidentified
100%.
bryan callen
I love that.
eddie bravo
100%.
So there's an IBJJF crew, you know, like the people, the fans and the competitors.
There's the Danaher crew, and they're like Conor McGregor, you know, because Gordon Ryan's kind of outspoken, and, you know, he's like wearing a crown everywhere he goes, and Gary Tonin, he's like...
They were all super cool, man.
And then Eddie Cummings was like the coolest motherfucker ever.
joe rogan
They're very smart guys.
eddie bravo
Eddie Cummings is like an astrophysicist, cool ass dude.
All those guys are awesome, man.
And what Danaher's done with that leg lock system, dude, he just so...
He took what Dean Lister showed him.
Dean Lister came down in the late 90s at Henzo School and dropped some heel hook knowledge on Danaher.
And Danaher just systemized that shit, blew it the fuck up.
And if you're not paying attention to the jiu-jitsu world and the sub-only movement, the Danaher death squad, Eddie Cummings...
Gordon Ryan, Gary Tonin, and even Gordon Ryan's brother, Nicky Ryan, they got this leg lock system that no one can fuck with.
They're mowing through everybody.
bryan callen
Artistry.
eddie bravo
It's mowing through everybody.
bryan callen
That's like real artistry.
When did you feel like...
At what point when you were rolling jiu-jitsu did you feel like it became more art than sport in that you were improvising as you went along, in that everything was a reaction, everything was sort of predicated by your mindset, your mood of that day, what that person was doing?
eddie bravo
It had nothing to do with the mood of the day that I could tell.
bryan callen
It had to do with reactions?
eddie bravo
It just had to do with how many times can you do a movement and train your body.
Your body, whatever you do.
Whether it's jiu-jitsu, tennis, basketball, whatever you do, if you do it over and over and over again, if you're working in a factory and you got a job or you're doing something, the more you do it, whatever it is, putting this contraption here, you're going to be so fucking good at it, bam!
Your body will master anything you tell it to do a thousand times.
bryan callen
So it becomes a language you're fluent in that you know physically, that you know...
eddie bravo
It's like any piano, guitar, building fucking blocks, factory working, whatever.
It's all about numbers.
It's just practice makes perfect.
The more you do it, your body will end up doing it magically, and you'd have to just kind of executive produce things, and your body just does it magically.
Tying your shoes.
Like playing violin.
When you're shredding on violin or piano or whatever...
joe rogan
Can you type, Brian?
eddie bravo
Or type?
joe rogan
That shit, typing.
When you type, you're just sort of thinking.
Like now, I've been typing for so many years.
I'm not perfect at it.
I fuck up.
But when I type, when I'm in the groove, I'm just looking at the screen and thinking.
And then the words just start, my fingers start moving.
bryan callen
It's weird you say that because I was typing and my father said, Jesus Christ, you type fast.
And it didn't even dawn on me.
I was like, huh?
eddie bravo
Well, that's what Dan Hurst done with the leg locks.
That's what they've done.
They've gotten a system down and they understand practice makes perfect.
bryan callen
Right.
eddie bravo
And they understand that...
bryan callen
Perfect practice makes perfect, right?
eddie bravo
Exactly.
That's even better.
bryan callen
Yeah.
No, I love that about life.
I love that about the idea that you can master something that you do.
joe rogan
Well, you definitely can.
bryan callen
Yeah.
joe rogan
You know, I mean, you get better at anything you put your time to.
bryan callen
Even if you don't get perfect, it's so worthwhile endeavoring down that road.
That's what you get.
The reaching for it is the whole lesson, right?
joe rogan
Yeah, you'll have milestones.
bryan callen
Yes.
joe rogan
But through those milestones, the most important thing is you're just enjoying the process.
And then one day you wake up and you realize, whoa, look what I could do.
bryan callen
Are you always learning with jiu-jitsu or do you feel like you're kind of over it all day?
joe rogan
No, man.
Oh my god.
Everybody learns forever.
eddie bravo
What we're talking about right now, what Danaher has done with the leg lock system and what they've done with EBI just completely dominate.
That, bringing it back, the Gio Martinez win last night, he beat Eddie Cummings in the finals at EBI 10 last night.
I was just in Mexico City.
It was fucking nuts this morning.
unidentified
When did you get back, Eddie?
eddie bravo
This morning?
unidentified
Damn.
Jet lag or no?
brendan schaub
We're about to get turned up in Austin this weekend, me and you, buddy.
People think we hate each other, but we're commentating together.
joe rogan
People are just silly.
You know what?
This conversation that happened at the beginning of this podcast when everybody went crazy, we're like the best friends.
We're just two of them.
I don't feel bad about it.
You guys don't feel bad about it.
I'm a little hurt.
bryan callen
Actually, do you know what I thought?
joe rogan
But here's that thing, man.
It's that thing that people have to understand.
You're allowed to disagree about shit and still be cool.
You could be both.
bryan callen
Well, not only that...
joe rogan
But you don't have to disagree with something and go, because you're a fucking retard.
That's why.
Because you're a fucking douchebag.
bryan callen
The way I look at it is, Eddie wants to solve a problem, and Eddie...
joe rogan
Don't let's not get specific, because we're going to go deep into the rabbit hole.
bryan callen
I'm not doing that.
I'm not doing that.
joe rogan
I'm exhausted.
I'm not talking about that.
bryan callen
No, I'm not doing that.
Hold on, listen.
Everyone listen.
What I'm saying is that when somebody's passionate and cares about the world and wants the world to be a better place like he does, that's where it's coming from.
unidentified
We're all on the same team.
bryan callen
That's where, yeah.
So when you know that, when you know that he's genuinely a good person through his fucking core, which I know that about him, like...
unidentified
We just have a different point of view.
I've texted Eddie about my kids.
bryan callen
There's no way I'm going to look at Eddie as, like, I can't do that.
eddie bravo
What have I said to you privately?
The bottom line is, this is the bottom line, is I think they are fucking us.
bryan callen
Right.
joe rogan
Oh, it's them.
eddie bravo
That's what I think.
It's they are fucking us.
bryan callen
And you mean everyone, everyone's all the best.
eddie bravo
That's like Jack and Jill shit.
joe rogan
You know what I mean?
God damn it.
Told you what you were getting into.
unidentified
You fucked up.
joe rogan
We were just trying to get out.
unidentified
Listen, man, I've known him more than you've known him.
joe rogan
You don't know fucking him, but I know him better than you know him.
eddie bravo
I don't think you're fucking me.
I don't think you're fucking me.
So if I thought you were fucking me, I would hate you.
joe rogan
Let me tell you something.
eddie bravo
I'm trying to convince you.
joe rogan
Brian Callen, how many times?
unidentified
You're trying to get me on your side.
joe rogan
Brian Callen, how many times you trained with Eddie Bravo?
unidentified
Zero.
bryan callen
You guys don't know?
He has an underground school, motherfucker.
joe rogan
Maybe I know him better than you, and I was trying to lead you out of the dark lands.
bryan callen
I take his online jiu-jitsu class, which is secret, double secret.
joe rogan
Eddie Bravo, how many times I trained with you?
Can you even put a number to it?
bryan callen
Ask Eddie.
unidentified
Eddie, am I right on this?
They're fucking him.
bryan callen
No, dude.
Eddie gives me private fucking underground cyber jiu-jitsu lessons.
unidentified
Them are fucking him.
joe rogan
When do you start working for Fox News?
eddie bravo
God!
You'd make a great journalist.
You're out of line!
unidentified
You're fucking out of line!
That would be amazing.
CNN is out there.
joe rogan
Hire this dude.
This guy would fucking be your soldier.
eddie bravo
He'd be right there in Tel Aviv just laying it down.
joe rogan
I have a message for Donald Trump.
I have a message for Donald Trump.
Donald, while you're in office, I want you to abandon the Republican Party and join the freak party.
unidentified
There you go.
joe rogan
We will let you do whatever you want.
Be whoever you are.
Let's just try to be nice to each other.
Let's cut the shit.
unidentified
Get loose, man.
joe rogan
Just cut loose, man.
eddie bravo
Hey, if they offered you $100,000 a year, Brian Callen would you take it?
joe rogan
He's on it.
I'm telling you.
unidentified
$100,000 a year.
They're paying him.
joe rogan
They're writing the pilot as we speak.
unidentified
They're paying him.
bryan callen
Brendan's brother, one of my favorite people in the world, is sending me all kinds of articles on how fake the pizza gate is.
unidentified
Hey, listen, let's not talk about Pizzagate, you fucker!
bryan callen
I told you I know him!
joe rogan
Listen, a guy who gets really good at killing people, like jujitsu style, gets really good at playing games, gets really good at arguments, he doesn't want to get involved.
bryan callen
He's a killer.
joe rogan
He gave you an out, and you want to keep going, and you're like the little pesky fucker.
brendan schaub
All I'm saying is, before the night's over, I need to know what Pizzagate is.
unidentified
Not doing this!
No!
joe rogan
Off camera.
eddie bravo
Pizzagate.
joe rogan
Pizzagate.
eddie bravo
Off camera.
unidentified
Hashtag Pizzagate.
eddie bravo
And listen, you don't want to know.
Trust me.
You don't want to know.
This is murder shit.
You'll get murdered if you talk about this shit.
unidentified
This is an amazing fight coming up.
joe rogan
Yes, absolutely.
eddie bravo
I'm trying to get murdered.
You know what I thought?
I thought, you know what?
I think the meaning of life is...
unidentified
The meaning of life is...
eddie bravo
There's fucking scumbags everywhere.
Try to maneuver around them and try to keep your family.
unidentified
But you can't.
eddie bravo
You can't stop all the scumbags.
joe rogan
You can't keep thinking about things.
Just think about MMA. Pizzagate is Mark Henry.
bryan callen
Pizzagate's a fucking pizza place.
eddie bravo
I'm gonna end it with if you watch Conspiracy of Silence on YouTube before you get into Pizzagate.
First the Conspiracy of Silence, then get into Pizzagate and it all makes sense.
joe rogan
Okay.
Fights.
eddie bravo
But that's it done.
joe rogan
I like it.
unidentified
Benavidez Cejudo.
Amazing fight.
Two Mexicans.
Oh shit.
Brown on Brown.
eddie bravo
They talked a lot of shit.
joe rogan
Talked a lot of shit.
Give me some volume, Jamie.
I work for the company.
A lot of shit.
I can get us brought back to YouTube.
Give me some volume.
I want to hear what's going on, man.
Here we go.
unidentified
My prediction?
Benavidez wins decision.
joe rogan
Give me a little more, Jamie.
bryan callen
Two short killers.
Short killers right here.
joe rogan
Here we go.
eddie bravo
Henry's a bad motherfucker.
joe rogan
This is a good fight.
unidentified
You want to bet, Eddie?
Quick!
We want to bet?
joe rogan
A thousand dollars.
unidentified
I got Joey Benavides.
I got Joey Benavides, too.
bryan callen
I got 100%.
I have Joey Benavides.
unidentified
Jesus Christ.
joe rogan
Oh!
Jesus Christ.
They are fucking swinging.
unidentified
You're Eddie Bravo.
Alright, how about dinner in Austin, for God's sakes?
joe rogan
Oh my God.
eddie bravo
Oh!
joe rogan
So who don't crack it?
unidentified
Well, not now.
joe rogan
Oh!
eddie bravo
Oh, not now.
Oh!
unidentified
No, I'm down.
I'm down.
Dinner?
eddie bravo
No, no, forget it now.
joe rogan
No, no, listen, boys.
bryan callen
Whoa!
joe rogan
Boys, please bet.
eddie bravo
No.
joe rogan
Can I bet for somebody?
unidentified
Yes.
You're betting for Andy.
What do you want, Joe?
Oh, look at that.
joe rogan
Now you want to bet?
eddie bravo
Now you want to bet?
joe rogan
I want Andy to bet.
unidentified
I got Henry.
I got Henry.
joe rogan
I'm just his backer.
I'm just his backer.
Okay, we're in.
We're in.
We got action.
eddie bravo
Fuck yeah.
joe rogan
I just want everyone to know that I'm not betting on anybody, that I'm merely a backer for my friend.
bryan callen
Brennan, why do you have so much confidence in Eddie?
eddie bravo
Henry's a friend of mine, so of course I'm going to go for him, man.
joe rogan
Sehudo's a friend of yours?
unidentified
Because Joe's a friend of mine.
joe rogan
Well, Joe Benavidez is a friend of mine as well.
I love Sehudo.
Oh, nut kick.
Hey, that's some honor right there.
Respect to that, right?
Nut kick's different.
But he understood the nut kick.
You're right, it's illegal, right?
Punches to the finger, not illegal.
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
But he recognized it.
Correct.
unidentified
Nut kick's a little different.
joe rogan
That's a respect thing, man.
That's a bad thing when you see a guy know he kicked a dude in the nuts and then go after him.
bryan callen
Oh my god.
joe rogan
That's dead on.
That's a little bit, I'm gonna be honest, a little bit more taint than balls.
unidentified
Still hurts, though.
Still stinks.
eddie bravo
That was a day.
bryan callen
Still stinks.
For sure.
unidentified
I think it's the bottom of that sack.
joe rogan
I'm not an apologist.
I'm not an ableist.
I'm not a nut-shot ableist.
unidentified
Now, Eve Levine will let you get your ass whooped now.
He's been known to let it go a little long.
joe rogan
Well, he's no Steve Mazzagatti, but yeah, he'll let you tap for a little bit.
bryan callen
Mazzagatti's horrifying.
eddie bravo
I love Mazzagatti.
Mazzagatti's my favorite.
I love Mazzagatti.
Mazzagatti fights?
joe rogan
I'm joking.
eddie bravo
Tell me when Mazzagatti's reffing.
joe rogan
I love you, buddy.
bryan callen
Mazzagatti, let anything happen.
eddie bravo
Hey, Mazzagatti's fucking reffing.
Text me.
I'll fucking watch it anyway.
bryan callen
Horace was digging his fingers into Jake Shield's eyes and Mazzagatti just sat there.
eddie bravo
All the best highlights are Mazzagotti fights.
You ever notice that?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Well, how about when Mazzagotti was reffing Brock Lesnar versus Frank Mir and Frank Mir almost separated his hips from his legs.
unidentified
Tapping like, Tammy, hit him in the dick again.
joe rogan
You gotta take a point.
eddie bravo
You gotta take a point.
joe rogan
Eve's a no-nonsense.
All bullshit aside, joking around, I love Eve.
He's a no-nonsense guy.
If he thinks that that is two in a row, he will take a point.
And here's the argument, right?
If it was unintentional, should you take a point?
Well, here's the problem.
The damage done to Benavidez is legit as far as it diminishes him.
So that is worth more than a point on his potential performance.
unidentified
Same with an eye poke.
joe rogan
Eye poke's even worse.
unidentified
I think eye poke right away should be a point taken away.
joe rogan
I think you're 100% correct.
It changes the magnitude of the fight.
I agree with him 100%.
Eddie Bravo thinks that Brian Callen is a bar.
He's gotten so drunk, he's just holding his glass out.
To Brian Cowen, who's not even looking at him.
Brendan Schaub, who's a loving man.
bryan callen
You got a point, you got a point.
joe rogan
Hey, Brendan's like, he does my dog right there.
Okay, that's a little too much for a driver.
bryan callen
Hey man, you can't throw those kicks like that.
joe rogan
You can't.
bryan callen
If you're not disciplined enough, you can't throw the kicks.
unidentified
Well no, they're moving targets, sir.
This ain't Taekwondo in 10th grade.
bryan callen
I just say stuff, okay?
joe rogan
Those kids moved a little too.
unidentified
Tiny bit.
joe rogan
I'm just picturing guys named Chad with no fucking facial hair.
unidentified
Chad just...
joe rogan
Bouncing around, switches stances with no fucking plan.
unidentified
Random colored belts.
joe rogan
This fight is awesome, by the way.
So who knows walking him down, man?
brendan schaub
So who knows pissed because his last fight obviously was Demetrius Johnson got annihilated.
joe rogan
He's also probably pissed because he's lost one point already in his first round.
So he's got to win significantly.
brendan schaub
This round will be a draw because if he loses one point, he's been winning the whole fight.
joe rogan
Unless Benavidez does something strong in which he'll win it.
Oh, crap.
But you know what, man?
Sometimes when people take a point away, they automatically say, well, that guy is losing the fight now.
It's almost like a psychological thing.
unidentified
The judges are tough, man.
joe rogan
Some of them are not good.
Some of them are definitely not good.
Let me ask you this.
What did you think of the Tyron Woodley Wonderboy fight?
Have you watched that fight since then?
unidentified
I called it a draw, sir.
joe rogan
I think you're right.
I think you're right.
unidentified
Hey, Brian, what'd I say to you?
Before they came out with the- But here's my thinking.
joe rogan
I think it's only a draw because we look at fights wrong.
I think Woodley won because he did way more damage.
Way more damage.
unidentified
Knocked them down.
Ended the fight.
How about that guillotine?
joe rogan
And he had moments of total dominance, like that first round when he got on top of him.
There was never a point where Wonderboy was running the fight.
Never.
So there should be a point aspect to that.
unidentified
I agree with you.
You're right.
You're right.
joe rogan
There's moments where maybe you land a jab, and he lands a leg kick, and what's better and what's worse?
And there's a debatable moment.
But when Woodley took him down and beat him up in the first round and smashed his nose open, that was a significant advantage.
What about the guillotine, son?
And the guillotine.
unidentified
That was nasty.
joe rogan
And how about the punches that led to the guillotine that had him hurt?
unidentified
You almost had him finished.
I thought he made a mistake going for the guillotine.
joe rogan
He probably did.
But who knows, man.
Yeah, you're probably right.
bryan callen
Let's watch this fight, you fucks.
unidentified
No, but to Joe's point, he's right.
You're right.
Woodley won the fight.
Like, in fight aspects, he won the fights.
eddie bravo
You guys just heard about some shit that happened two weeks ago.
joe rogan
Eddie's right.
Eddie's right.
You're both right.
Brian Callen and Eddie Brown were the voice of reason.
Who would have fucking ever thought that?
bryan callen
Exactly.
unidentified
These guys are 115 pounds.
joe rogan
They weigh in at 125. They really weigh 130. They're amazing.
unidentified
They're the best.
joe rogan
Shut the fuck up.
bryan callen
Joe, I mean, Brendan, goddammit.
joe rogan
You fucking giant.
Are they Nazis?
You have giant privilege.
unidentified
The viewers would agree with me.
joe rogan
The ratings make the difference.
You have white privilege, male privilege, and giant privilege.
You're a disgusting human being.
He's never had any bad varsity blues.
You have white privilege.
You have big dick privilege.
You have podcaster privilege.
bryan callen
He's got it all.
unidentified
You're ridiculous.
joe rogan
Son of a bitch.
And you have giant privilege.
unidentified
You're ridiculous.
bryan callen
He was on a marquee at the Laugh Factory with his son of a bitch.
He's like, hey, guys, thanks for all your ten years.
Move out of the way.
joe rogan
Son of a bitch.
Fucker.
There's going to be that one night, Brian, where you can't follow him.
I know.
You're going to go, you son of a bitch.
bryan callen
I know.
joe rogan
He's figured out how to be funnier than me, you son of a bitch.
bryan callen
Bigger, stronger, funnier.
joe rogan
With your fat garden hose dangling out of the inside of your jeans.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
What the fuck is that?
How about you tuck that thing in?
bryan callen
Tuck that bad boy in.
joe rogan
How about you hide it from the children?
unidentified
What's wrong with your friends, Jamie?
joe rogan
Put it away.
unidentified
God damn it.
joe rogan
Put the sock away.
Did you guys see the Roadrunner kill the rattlesnake?
I've shown everybody on my podcast this week.
unidentified
No, I haven't seen it.
joe rogan
Roadrunners fucking kill and eat rattlesnakes.
unidentified
Fuck.
joe rogan
Would you look at a roadrunner?
unidentified
You're talking about the bird?
joe rogan
The little tiny bird?
You look at a roadrunner and a rattlesnake, you would say, well, for sure the rattlesnakes are eating the roadrunners.
Yeah.
Roadrunners eat...
Watch this.
unidentified
I would say the roadrunner runs from the rattlesnake.
joe rogan
Look at this.
Incorrect.
The roadrunner's hunting it.
bryan callen
Damn.
joe rogan
It's literally hunting...
Look at that dinosaur.
unidentified
It looks nothing like the dinosaur.
joe rogan
Because they're up close.
When you're up close.
Look at this shit.
The roadrunner is so fast, he can hop away.
unidentified
I didn't see shit.
eddie bravo
There's like camera tricks.
joe rogan
I don't see shit.
Bro, bro, bro, look.
It's right there.
You didn't see that?
This is- I looked it up after I saw this video.
It's a fact.
Roadrunners eat fucking safe.
Look at this shit!
He just bapped him by the face, and now look at this.
He smashes his head on the fucking rocks.
bryan callen
How gangster is this bird?
unidentified
Dude, I got a new favorite animal.
Look at this!
I got a new favorite animal.
joe rogan
Look at this!
unidentified
Holy shit!
joe rogan
He's just smashing that fucking head on the rocks.
Look at this.
Whip!
unidentified
Boom!
Dude, shout out to Roadrunners.
joe rogan
Dude.
unidentified
He just murked that motherfucker!
Damn!
joe rogan
He just beat Nurmagomedov that fucking snake on a rock!
bryan callen
He swallowed the whole fucking thing!
unidentified
Damn!
He swallowed the whole fucking thing!
Some would say he deep-throated that rattlesnake.
That's my favorite animal.
bryan callen
Guys, fights back on!
joe rogan
Shut the fuck up!
unidentified
Fights back on.
Goddammit!
joe rogan
Round two.
unidentified
Look at that.
bryan callen
Keep that.
Keep that.
joe rogan
Brian, go for it.
bryan callen
Keep that left.
Actually, that right hand.
unidentified
That a boy.
joe rogan
Oh, Jesus.
Cejudo's winging that right hand.
unidentified
Cejudo looks pissed.
I've never seen him fight with this much bad intentions.
joe rogan
Well, they worked alongside each other for a long time and talked a lot of shit to each other.
Well, Joe keeps swaying for that right hand counter.
unidentified
Joe looks a little off tonight.
joe rogan
Well, he's probably been tagged a few times in that first round.
You know, he's looking for that big right hand to get things back.
brendan schaub
The reason I thought Joe would win this fight, and I'm not saying he's not going to, he does everything really well, and Cejudo does a few things great.
So I thought Joe would kind of edge it out with just mixing it up, but he's not doing that.
joe rogan
Well, Cejudo has nowhere near the level of experience, other than the Johnson fight.
unidentified
He has seven fights.
joe rogan
Yeah, I mean, and Benavidez has fought Johnson a couple of times.
unidentified
That was when I was a goddamn Mighty Mouse.
eddie bravo
Cejudo is a tremendous athlete.
unidentified
He marked both of these guys.
joe rogan
Tremendous.
unidentified
How bad did he knock out Joey Benavidez?
Oh, yeah.
Oh my god.
joe rogan
Yeah, he crushed him.
You know, and then what he did to Cejudo was pretty goddamn impressive, too.
unidentified
It was amazing, man.
He took him down, too.
joe rogan
And the technical kicks, or knees rather, to the body, the Muay Thai from the clinch, it was perfect.
unidentified
Did you hear what Mighty Mouse said before that fight?
Well, he is an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling.
He went, there's 250 gold medalists.
brendan schaub
There's one, you know, fucking world champion like this.
eddie bravo
I think I'm like, fuck.
unidentified
I was like, oh my god!
So legit.
joe rogan
I love Mighty Mouse.
I've been singing Mighty Mouse's praises forever.
unidentified
You have.
He's not my pound for pound number one, but he's amazing.
joe rogan
He's been mine for the past few years.
eddie bravo
Who's your pound for pound number one?
unidentified
Jon Jones.
eddie bravo
Over Conor McGregor?
joe rogan
See, but you can't say that, but here's what I think.
When you look at Jon Jones, I think Jon Jones ultimately absolutely has the potential to be number one, but he's been too inactive, and the fight with Ovin St. Preux, although Ovin St. Preux, I feel, is a very good fighter, and it's a very tough fight.
If you look at who has beaten Ovin St. Preux, and how Jon Jones looked against him.
unidentified
You can't go off his one fight.
joe rogan
You're right, you can't entirely buy it, but as of late, he's been incredibly inactive.
I see a little- I see a little- Mighty Mouse has been not just- Hey, fuck face!
bryan callen
I'm talking over here!
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
joe rogan
When Mighty Mouse has been active, he's been spectacular.
unidentified
He's been spectacular, but the thing is, is we've seen Mighty Mouse lose.
We've never seen Jon Jones lose.
joe rogan
You're right.
bryan callen
God, you guys are missing a great fight.
joe rogan
You're right, but he's not fought.
unidentified
And also, what Mighty Mouse is, he can make a mistake, get punched with the right hand.
They're 125 pounds.
They keep on, keep on.
Jon Jones makes one mistake against Vitor.
joe rogan
The fight's over.
bryan callen
No, no, he fell.
unidentified
Because of their weight classes, I don't have them pound for pound number one.
joe rogan
That is a good argument, except for guys like John Lineker, who knocked guys out with one punch, and Mighty Mouse, who knocked out Benavidez with one punch.
unidentified
Still different than 205-pound monsters.
joe rogan
You're right.
It is a little bit different.
bryan callen
Have you forgotten about a guy named Anderson Silva?
unidentified
Brian Callen coming in and fucking shut that shit down.
bryan callen
What about him?
joe rogan
Best ever?
Right now.
bryan callen
100%.
joe rogan
Right now, it's entirely possible to make the case of either Fedor, Anderson Silva, or Mighty Mouse.
Or Verdum.
GSP? Maybe Verdum.
unidentified
If he didn't lose his last.
joe rogan
Yeah.
Verdum's hard with a Stipe fight.
bryan callen
You can't put Verdum again.
joe rogan
The junior fight.
bryan callen
Anderson Silva, who finished everybody?
joe rogan
It's arguable that Verdum's the best heavyweight of all time.
You can make that argument.
unidentified
I'm sorry, that's what I'm arguing.
Not pound for pound.
Verdum, heavyweight.
Pound for pound, John, Mighty Mouse.
You can put Conor up there.
Conor's an argument.
Conor's an argument.
Is it just me?
I hear you keep saying Anderson.
I'm kind of on something else.
bryan callen
Don't you think he's the number one fighter of all time as far as finishing everybody?
unidentified
No, I think John is.
bryan callen
With style the way he did?
What are we talking about here?
eddie bravo
You know I don't know shit about striking.
He beat up everybody.
You know that.
I don't know shit about striking, but I can visibly see Conor countering with his left hand.
I can see that, and I don't really see it with a lot of fighters.
I know I don't know shit, but is that...
joe rogan
No, you're right.
eddie bravo
Is he an amazing counter puncher?
unidentified
100%, Eddie.
eddie bravo
Because I'm seeing as soon as someone throws, he goes BOOM! He's just waiting for that shot.
joe rogan
It's so clean.
eddie bravo
It's so fast.
It's so obvious.
He's waiting for you.
As soon as you throw, he's going to fuck you up.
joe rogan
Well, what Connor has is this ability to slide back and counter with such incredible precision.
He's just got a beautiful precision, too.
The technique's perfect.
He plants it right on your chin.
He's super accurate.
He's so fast, you get surprised.
eddie bravo
How do you get that good?
unidentified
Don't you think his strength is, too, is he's...
He has some sort of skill where he can predetermine what you're going to do.
joe rogan
You know what I'm saying?
unidentified
We've never really seen it.
We've never really seen a guy like you.
joe rogan
A lot of understanding of striking and movement.
eddie bravo
How do you get that good at countering?
If a guy comes to you and says, Joe, I'm going to dedicate my life to you.
I want you to turn me into the ultimate counter fighter.
joe rogan
I would say go to that fucking dude on his knees in front of Joseph Benavidez.
Go to Dwayne Ludwig.
eddie bravo
He's all about the counters.
joe rogan
Dude, Dwayne Ludwig, how about the fuck he's get the fastest ever fucking KO of in the UFC from a counter?
unidentified
And he fought out the Canadian.
He had multiple colored hands.
joe rogan
Why can't I remember his name?
unidentified
God, I can't remember his fucking name either.
bryan callen
Does Joey have a twin brother?
eddie bravo
What would you do?
Actual, not sending me to Dwayne Ludwig, but what would, like, a drill you would come up with that you would say, okay, you gotta do this shit every day.
joe rogan
Well, it would depend on where you're at, like, skill-wise.
Like, can you kick?
Can you punch?
Should you not even bother kicking?
How much time do we have to work with you?
Like, what are you gonna do?
Like, if you took a guy who had, like, almost no kicks whatsoever, you'd say, okay, let's forget the kicks.
What I want you to do is just check kicks.
We're going to work on punches.
Can you throw elbows?
I don't want you off balance throwing kicks.
There's a lot of different things you would think of, but when you see Connor's counters, his counters are so precise.
You only get that through that 10,000-hour principle.
eddie bravo
I would say you have five years to work with someone.
You have five years.
joe rogan
They have to be obsessed and they have to be genetically gifted.
Because there's certain punchers, they just did not have that kind of snap to be counter guys.
Like a guy like Matt Hamill, who was a really powerful wrestler and a good puncher and a good striker ultimately later in his career.
He never had that BUTT! There's that fucking, there's that fucking SPAP! Damn, you said Matt Hamill.
But you know what I mean?
Matt Hamill's a tough guy.
unidentified
That's such a good example.
joe rogan
It's a good example because he's a tough guy and a strong, powerful wrestler.
unidentified
But he was an explosive and didn't have that kind of accuracy.
joe rogan
There's a bunch of guys you could say that you could put in that category who were like really powerful grapplers who just weren't the most lightning-like strikers.
There's a certain type of striking.
There's striking where you know that the guy has good technique and you know that the guy pretty much understands where to be and where not to be and when to be defensive and when to be offensive.
That's like a well-rounded striker.
And then there's guys like Roy Jones Jr. There's every now and then you have these freaks.
But Roy Jones Jr. was a weird one because Roy Jones Jr. abandoned all of the orthodoxy of boxing.
I mean, he kept his hands low.
He barely threw jabs.
He threw a leaping left hook instead.
And he had ridiculous speed and power to the point where nobody could fuck with it.
unidentified
Dude, remember when he was coming out?
joe rogan
For years and years.
unidentified
Remember when he was in his prime?
joe rogan
Yeah.
unidentified
Fuck, he was so fucking good.
joe rogan
Dude!
unidentified
Did you watch the Kovalev-Andre Warden?
joe rogan
Yes.
Yes, I did.
unidentified
Great fight, man.
joe rogan
Terrible pay for you members.
unidentified
I watched it again.
joe rogan
I watched it again.
And I wanted to see if I was biased because I thought that Kovalev won and I still think he won.
Yeah, so do I. I don't think he won by much, and I think Andre Ward did a really good job of holding his own, but I just don't think there was enough convincing rounds where Ward won in the way that I think the rounds that Kovalev won.
unidentified
I agree.
brendan schaub
So I was like, man, I was watching, I'm like, I feel like Kovalev definitely won, but it was close.
And then when Lenderman was like, oh, it's a complete blowout, I'm like, well, I don't agree with that.
unidentified
I don't think Andre Ward won, but I don't think he got blown out.
joe rogan
No, I think it was a one point for Kovalev.
And I think the reason why you could make that is because I think that Andre Ward sort of clawed his way back.
He won some rounds.
Like later in the fight, it seemed like he had got that jab established more.
He popped a couple real good jabs on him.
unidentified
7 through 11 he was doing work.
joe rogan
But he got dropped.
unidentified
It was a 10-8 round, I think, in the second.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah.
Second round.
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
I mean, you could see a one-point fight for Kovalov.
unidentified
He won the fight, though.
joe rogan
But I just...
And I don't...
Oh, shit.
This is crazy.
It's a crazy fight.
But again, it depends entirely on how you score fights, too, right?
I mean, everybody has their own idea.
When you look at the numbers, though.
The numbers of significant punches and stuff like that favors Kovalov.
True.
bryan callen
But, Joe, your number one fighter is Mighty Mouse.
Number two is Anderson Silva?
joe rogan
Yeah, that's my number one and number two.
Because I judge him on what I see from him right now.
And when I see, like, I understand that he's fighting smaller guys.
I understand they don't have as much power.
unidentified
Margin of error.
joe rogan
I understand that.
The margin of error is different.
However, what I factor in is the greatness of movement.
And what I see in Mighty Mouse is pure efficiency.
I see crazy shit.
Like when he got Cejudo in the clinch and he's throwing these precision knees to the body that come with no wind-up.
Cejudo has no idea they're coming.
Mighty Mouse puts it on him.
I'm seeing the Mighty Mouse that saw Joseph Benavidez leaving his chin out there and caught him with one punch and KO'd him when the knock on him was that he wasn't a one-punch striker.
I saw him when he fought Hayoki where he dominated Hayoki for all five rounds and with a second to go.
unidentified
He always catches him with You know who he don't include in Pound for Pound?
Because he's not active enough?
Not McCruz.
But if you look at his record, it's ridiculous.
bryan callen
That's a great point.
unidentified
But he's not active enough.
bryan callen
That is a great point.
joe rogan
I'll tell you what, man.
Him and Cody No Love is going to be quite interesting.
Quite interesting.
unidentified
Because Cody catches anyone that's going to sleep.
He's my favorite fighter of that weight class by far.
joe rogan
And that's a good point, because what we're talking about is about guys who are really good at certain things.
Like, Cody Nolove is way better at striking than what you're seeing right now.
unidentified
Joey's way better.
He's the Chuck Liddell of that weight class.
joe rogan
He's the Chuck Liddell of 135. He does creepy, scary shit to people.
Like, when he murked Thomas Almeida with that combination, his striking is like, these guys make no mistake about it.
Benavidez and Cejudo are both very good strikers.
Joey's winning this.
bryan callen
Joey's winning this.
joe rogan
I'm not sure you're right at all.
bryan callen
He's going to win this fight.
joe rogan
I don't know about that.
unidentified
He's catching him.
joe rogan
We do this every time.
unidentified
Brian's been watching it.
We've been talking.
brendan schaub
The thing is, though, is with Don McCruise and Garbrandt, Don McCruise isn't a knockout.
unidentified
He's far from it.
So he might land 30 punches.
Garbrandt needs one in 25 minutes.
joe rogan
But we've never seen Garbrandt four and five rounds in.
unidentified
Correct.
joe rogan
It's going to be interesting because he's a very explosive guy.
unidentified
It's such a fun fight, though.
joe rogan
But he's never been a guy that shows any sort of a slowdown in his style.
unidentified
I like it, man.
Some people are upset that he got it.
I love it.
joe rogan
Oh, no, it's great.
The only person I feel bad for...
unidentified
TJ got fucked.
Yeah, I feel bad for TJ. And they went, oh, TJ, here's fucking Lineker, too.
joe rogan
Oh, my God.
unidentified
No title shot.
Here's Lineker the monster.
joe rogan
Lineker's a scary dude.
unidentified
Yeah, he's the scary...
Yes.
joe rogan
He's got some creepy power in his hands, man.
unidentified
Lineker Garbrandt's the motherfucking fight.
joe rogan
Yeah, right?
And Lineker seems to have an iron chin, too, which is scary.
unidentified
He fights scary, right?
joe rogan
He fights...
He's a terrifying powerhouse, man.
unidentified
See, I thought John Dotson beat him.
Really?
Because Lineker was coming forward non-stop.
Had Dotson win that fight.
joe rogan
I'd have to go back and watch it again.
I remember seeing the decision thinking it was correct.
I'd have to go back and watch that again.
Who do you think won this fight?
We weren't paying attention.
unidentified
I've been talking to you about pound for pound.
bryan callen
I think Joey landed more strikes.
Clean strikes on his face.
That's what it looked like to me.
joe rogan
Might have.
unidentified
And then you're going to have to pay his back.
bryan callen
Because Cejudo kept throwing, but Joey was weathering the storm and not getting hit.
Not getting hurt.
joe rogan
I like it.
I like putting a little on the line.
I'm just a backer.
I like being in action.
unidentified
I hear you, man.
joe rogan
I really care who the horse is.
unidentified
And then the main event, is anyone taking Tim Elliott?
Not you, Rogan.
You guys aren't down to order pizza?
joe rogan
Right here, no.
I don't want pizza players to know where we are.
Pizza players?
unidentified
I was like, what the fuck's a pizza player?
How do you guys do it over here?
bryan callen
I can answer the door.
eddie bravo
How would they know?
unidentified
We could just say it's Brian T. No, you could do it next door and just have him text you.
We'll probably be out of here by the time they come.
joe rogan
Listen, we have some protein bars.
You want a protein bar or something?
unidentified
It's just as good as pizza.
You want a protein bar?
bryan callen
Pizza would be nice, though, Joe.
joe rogan
Get something to eat afterwards.
eddie bravo
You know what?
unidentified
Fuck pizza.
You gotta do a set, right, Joe?
eddie bravo
Pizza is part of the Agenda 21. Store.
joe rogan
I'm at the store tonight.
unidentified
He's always there.
joe rogan
Putting together my new hour.
Love it.
unidentified
Brian and I are there tomorrow night.
joe rogan
I have to.
I abandoned my hour to do the Netflix special.
bryan callen
Oh, that's nice.
joe rogan
I'm talking about myself.
Is that okay?
unidentified
Can I do that?
bryan callen
I'm piggybacking this stuff.
joe rogan
Relax.
I'm over on this side now.
I just can't believe you guys are here.
He pushed the mic away.
Pizza.
bryan callen
He pushed the mic away.
joe rogan
You won't even let people talk about themselves.
Try to tell people some shit that's happening tonight.
bryan callen
Sorry, buddy.
unidentified
Sorry.
joe rogan
And you're like, but what about us?
Oh, we're somewhere soon.
bryan callen
He pushed the mic away.
Did you see that?
I've never seen him do that.
unidentified
I don't like him talking about a special.
It's a new hour.
joe rogan
The two of you guys together, you fight over each other so much.
You come here, you put it on us.
bryan callen
That's right.
joe rogan
Now we're all about that.
We're not about that.
bryan callen
You guys are about harmony?
joe rogan
Here's the difference between Eddie Bravo and I. We get high when you guys aren't around.
When you guys are together, you're not getting high.
bryan callen
Oh, and he wins!
Thank you.
joe rogan
I mean, Joey wins.
You owe me $500.
unidentified
No, you owe me $500.
joe rogan
No, I thought I was...
bryan callen
Oh, that's right.
God bless Joey.
joe rogan
I forgot who I was rooting for.
bryan callen
He won that fight.
joe rogan
Brian Cowen was aware and correct.
Let's see if people are booing.
Any boos?
bryan callen
Crank it.
joe rogan
Volume, please.
bryan callen
There shouldn't be boos.
Beautiful.
unidentified
Beautiful striking.
It's hard to tell.
It's like two roadrunners fighting.
joe rogan
His style's changed since he's working with- Roadrunners kill rattlesnakes with their face, you fuck.
You do not pay attention.
unidentified
So sexist.
bryan callen
And Joey Benavides uses Bang Ludwig's technique.
His technique has changed and he looks amazing.
He looked very different in this fight than any of his other fights.
joe rogan
Ever.
bryan callen
Totally different.
unidentified
Just from the little I saw, it looked like he lost.
bryan callen
Nope.
joe rogan
Yeah, I absolutely wasn't paying enough attention.
Plus, I have marijuana in my system, which impairs my judgment.
unidentified
Yeah, me too.
bryan callen
Joey crushed it.
unidentified
I'm about three wines deep.
bryan callen
God, good for him.
unidentified
I eat this fudge thing.
I'm just, I'm not the same.
Fat fudge, man.
joe rogan
This stuff is a shit.
unidentified
It was nice.
joe rogan
Paleo friendly.
It's really good for you.
unidentified
Joe, you been back on paleo?
joe rogan
Yeah, I only got off of it because I went on vacation.
brendan schaub
I did it for the holidays, and I told you I had the worst headaches, brother, when I went back on.
unidentified
I thought I was going to die.
joe rogan
I do an abbreviated version where I allow myself to have some desserts and shit, but I don't go fucking full hog.
My body understands what's bad for it now.
It doesn't feel good anymore.
But if I make a grilled cheese sandwich for my kids...
unidentified
God damn, that sounds nice.
joe rogan
I love a grilled cheese sandwich with butter.
Do you butter the bread?
I do.
I butter the bread.
unidentified
Of course you butter the bread.
joe rogan
What kind of cheddar do you use?
unidentified
I use a sharp cheddar.
joe rogan
That's nice.
unidentified
I use a sharp cheddar.
I like a real sharp cheddar.
A lot of cheese.
I'll put a tomato slice in there too and mix it up.
joe rogan
I like that.
unidentified
Yes, Joe Rogan.
joe rogan
I like the tomato slice.
Tomato slice really should be standard.
unidentified
I agree.
It's fresh.
joe rogan
Like how the fuck does BLT get the tomato and the cheese sandwich?
It really should be standard because it makes it juicy.
You gotta use white bread because you're not eating anything nutritious.
unidentified
Don't fucking give me weed or multigrain.
Fuck you.
Give me that old-fashioned wonder bread white boy.
joe rogan
But I wouldn't be mad at you if you made me a grilled cheese sandwich with Ezekiel bread and alfalfa sprouts and Gouda.
And some heirloom tomatoes.
unidentified
Little tomato soup.
joe rogan
And some grass-fed butter on the outside of the Ezekiel batter when you fry.
You fry in a cast iron pan, correct?
Because you're not a criminal.
unidentified
No, you have to.
I'm a goddamn American.
joe rogan
You're an American.
You're not a bad person.
You're not a bad person.
You're not doing this in a fucking George Foreman grill.
You're using a gun.
unidentified
Damn, cast iron frying pan like a fucking pioneer!
Dude, you make a grilled cheese or anything George Foreman, chicken, fuck you!
That shit ain't real.
joe rogan
I made a hundred chicken meals on a George Foreman grill all my life.
unidentified
Me too, me too in college.
I would grill the fuck out of them.
joe rogan
Those things...
Listen, honestly, it's a good way to do it.
You grill the top and the bottom at the same time.
unidentified
That kind of tastes like shit, though.
Compared to a grill.
But only if you get...
joe rogan
Most of the people eat on George Foreman grills.
You're not eating filet mignon.
You're getting shit cuts anyway because you're poor as fuck.
unidentified
That's true.
I was grilling skirt steak and shit in my...
George Foreman.
joe rogan
Meanwhile, Mexicans figured out how to make skirt steak one of my favorite steaks.
unidentified
The best.
joe rogan
They start fucking marinating this shit.
unidentified
Damn right.
Damn right.
joe rogan
Skirt steak is a shit.
unidentified
It really is.
eddie bravo
Do you guys ever have an era in your 20s where you're not living at home and you're fucking broke as fuck and you have $17 and you gotta somehow make that last a week and you're like, okay, I got top ramen, a loaf of bread, macaroni and cheese.
bryan callen
I just call my dad's secretary, and I say, Dad, I need some fucking money.
And my dad would go, how much do you need?
eddie bravo
Totally figures.
bryan callen
I go, well, I don't know, $500 or $1,000, and he'd send me two grand.
unidentified
That's why you believe in Fox News, because you'd be sucking on the dick of the government.
bryan callen
Listen, you guys will ultimately never be in my inner circle because you're poor.
unidentified
We ever broke like that?
joe rogan
Oh yeah, for sure.
eddie bravo
You're like, okay, $23.
We're going to the market.
joe rogan
Roll pennies.
eddie bravo
We got it all.
I got a calculator at the fuck.
I'm 22 years old.
I'm like, I got, okay, three boxes of macaroni and cheese, a jar of peanut butter.
Loaf of bread.
Milk.
Four cans of tuna.
Damn, I could take that.
I could take that for four days.
joe rogan
It's all about survival.
eddie bravo
It's about survival mode, man.
bryan callen
I grew up with a chef.
eddie bravo
Survival.
joe rogan
When I was a kid, when I left my parents' house, ramen was big.
unidentified
What age?
eddie bravo
Dude, top ramen?
39 cents?
joe rogan
When I was real broke, at my brokest, I was like 1920 was my brokest.
unidentified
Like going to college?
joe rogan
Yeah, well, barely, man.
I was going to college, but even when I say I'm going to college, there should be like an asterisk next to that statement.
I was taking classes, but I wasn't even ever thinking I was going to get a job.
I just didn't want anybody thinking I was a loser.
And I'd run into people in my town, and they'd be like, what are you doing?
I'm like, oh, I'm taking a year off.
And they'd be like, oh, I'm a fucking loser.
So after a year, I'm like, I can't keep feeling that every time I talk to somebody.
I've got to go to school.
So I started going to college, but it was barely paying attention.
I was paying more attention because that was at the time that I was considering doing stand-up comedy.
I hadn't done it yet.
And when I started doing it, that's when I quit college.
But I was considering doing it, so it was really more paying attention to people and how weird we all are in this struggle between being a child and being an adult.
There's this weird transitionary period where people are feeling their oats and flexing their intellectual muscles.
In front of a teacher and trying to catch the teacher when it's wrong and trying to debate the teacher.
I was fascinated by that, man.
I was fascinated by that because when I was fighting especially, that was all when I was still competing.
I was always really interested in conflict, any kind of conflict, verbal conflict, physical conflict, games.
unidentified
You embraced it, you're saying?
joe rogan
I'm interested in it.
I'm curious as to what's going on here.
Like, why is this kid protesting what the teacher's saying?
Is he protesting because he's made a really solid assessment of the facts at hand and he finds a flaw in the logic?
Or is he trying to get attention?
Has he looked at it from, if he's had step 1 through 10 to really verify what your thoughts are?
Have you looked at 1 through 10?
Or did you go up to like 3 and you feel your oats and you think you're smart as fuck and you dive in?
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
So what I was more interested in when I was in college, honestly, was just people interacting with each other.
My favorite moment from college had to do with this Puerto Rican girl that I was trying to fuck.
unidentified
Good for you.
joe rogan
And I was in the lunchroom with this girl.
This girl kept inviting me to go to these things with her.
What kind of things?
These fucking retreats.
She was like, me and my friends.
She was in my Italian class.
unidentified
Oh, she was trying to fuck, son.
joe rogan
Dude, she was so hot.
eddie bravo
You don't know that, Brandon.
joe rogan
She was so hot.
eddie bravo
You jumped to conclusions.
Why do you jump to conclusions like that?
joe rogan
Please tell me the story.
She was thick, and she was juicy, and she had glasses.
And I knew she spoke Spanish.
I couldn't wait to hear it.
And I was like, it's just a matter of time.
Like, this girl's giving me all kinds of vibe, right?
bryan callen
Breaking her walls down.
joe rogan
We're going out in the Cape.
I would love if you'd come.
And I felt bad.
I didn't want to tell her that I was going to fight in a tournament.
What?
No, no, no.
I was super insecure about it.
I thought I was an idiot.
I thought I had brain damage.
I was in college.
unidentified
She would have jacked you off in history.
joe rogan
No, probably not.
You'd be surprised.
It didn't sound even real to say.
Sound like a gimmick.
I'm going to go kick some dudes.
Anyway, I couldn't make it.
So she's like, we do them all the time.
I would love to have you come again.
I would love to come again.
And I'm like, fuck yeah!
I left that and it was like...
I was pumped.
I was like, damn, we're in.
So then I went back to school after the tournament.
I'm sitting in the lunchroom.
And ironically enough, it was a Trump airplane.
It was one of those Trump airlines.
bryan callen
You were on Trump Airlines?
joe rogan
No, listen to me.
I was at the lunchroom, and we were about to eat.
And the Trump airline that day, the fucking landing gear didn't come down, but the jet skid into the runway and splashed.
And they put fucking flame retardant foam all over the runway.
It was crazy.
I went down.
I sat down with these kids.
This Puerto Rican girl was so hot.
And all of her friends.
And I sat down with them at lunch and I said, did you guys hear about the jet that just crash landed?
It had this run.
And they were like, what happened?
And I said, apparently the front landing gear didn't engage, didn't lock down.
Trump Airlines.
But everybody's fine and nobody got hurt.
unidentified
They go, oh, praise God, praise God, praise God.
joe rogan
I went, oh, no.
And then I realized I was standing there over the table because they're all going, praise God, praise God.
I'm like, shit.
bryan callen
You were getting sucked into a religious.
joe rogan
So then I sat down with so much sadness, but also happy because I love conflict.
Right?
So I'm sitting down, I'm like this little demon that sits down at the table.
bryan callen
Back then, back then, no diplomacy.
Back then, a fucking laser beam.
Back then, not a diplomat.
Keep going.
joe rogan
You didn't even know me then.
This was when I was 19. I knew you when you were 27. Yeah, when I was 19, I was straight feral.
So I sat down at this table, and they're going like, praise God.
unidentified
What's feral mean?
joe rogan
Wild.
My mother's a beautiful person, and my stepdad's a beautiful man, and I love them to death, but they worked.
And when people work, the kids are gone.
From whatever time, to when they get out of school, they're fucking wild.
Wild and loose in the streets and that's how I grew up.
bryan callen
Trying to make sense of the world and your own instincts.
joe rogan
I was a latchkey kid from a divorced family and I grew up hanging out with other kids.
And you develop these crazy...
And then I started fighting.
unidentified
So no juicy Puerto Rican asked for you.
joe rogan
So I was fighting.
So I had a very distorted version of things as it is.
So then I sat down and I said, so this thing that you wanted me to do when you were asking me to go hang out with your friends At the Cape, and I have like a big smile on my face.
I'm like, that was about Jesus, right?
And they were like, it's really important that you know Jesus.
I go, you know Jesus?
I go, you know Jesus?
And we had this really bizarre conversation.
She's like, Jesus is in my heart.
I go, did he tell you that's his name?
Did you get to know him?
Like, what are you talking about?
And then she starts talking about the Bible.
Which Bible are we talking about?
We're talking about the Old Testament?
We're talking about the New Testament?
And we have this creepy fucking weirdo conversation.
bryan callen
Where I was just such a- And you knew you were never going to get- Game over.
unidentified
You've never seen those cheeks.
joe rogan
I wasn't- I was, at the time, like for me, I was as nice as I could have been while I was feral.
bryan callen
Because you liked her.
unidentified
I'm sure she didn't talk to you after that.
joe rogan
No, no, I was done.
I was like, look, I grew up around- I was in Catholic school in the first grade.
I grew up around crazy religious people.
By the time I was like in, you know, my high school days and past my high school days, I was like, I see what the fuck's going on.
Like, you're crazy.
You're not sucking me into this.
So I was just confused.
bryan callen
Here's my question to everybody at the table.
joe rogan
She was so hot, dude.
bryan callen
My experience has been really religious girls fuck immediately.
In my dating history, the girls have talked about their- There's a warmth to the way they approach you.
Yes.
joe rogan
They give in.
bryan callen
When they say they love the Lord, they will be sucking your cock.
joe rogan
That guy behind him, Matt motherfucking Hume.
That guy knows as much about MMA. Might be the best coach, eh?
Yeah, might be the best.
Him and Faraz Ahabi.
There's like him, Duke Rufus, Faraz Ahabi.
There's a few, yeah, Bang for striking for sure.
But as far as like overall MMA coaches...
Man, it's tough to not give the nod to Matt Hume.
unidentified
Matt Hume or Firas are my number ones.
joe rogan
Yeah, they're number one.
unidentified
It's like the pound for pound talk.
You can really rotate them out.
joe rogan
And a guy like GSP, obviously, he developed under the tutelage of Firas Ahabi, but he would have developed under the tutelage of Matt Hume too.
unidentified
Maybe.
I don't know.
joe rogan
I think he would have if he could learn French.
unidentified
Frost and GSP were boys, though.
They grew up, so there's this bond and connection.
It's a big bond.
They're fighting for each other.
joe rogan
Now, if you're Tim Elliott, it's guns, bombs away, right?
unidentified
I don't think so.
joe rogan
What do you do?
It's bombs away.
You gotta go bombs away.
unidentified
You think you just gotta go balls to the wall, Brunson style?
joe rogan
Yeah, almost.
Yeah, I mean, almost like the only way to out-technique this guy.
eddie bravo
Gio did it.
unidentified
Well, any high-level guy, Elliot's lost to.
eddie bravo
Demetrius is like Geo beating Cummings, you know what I mean?
joe rogan
In a way, yeah, you're right.
eddie bravo
Most people thought Cummings was, and rightfully so, he's mowing through everybody with his heel hooks.
Can Geo hang with that?
And he did, man.
unidentified
Herb Dean looks bored as well.
joe rogan
MMA is like Wednesday on the Mickey Mouse Club.
Wednesday is Anything Can Happen Day.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
joe rogan
Wednesday we get loose Mickey Mouse.
That's what MMA is.
That's what MMA is.
As a sport, MMA is Anything Can Happen Day.
unidentified
Not at this weight class.
joe rogan
Bullshit.
unidentified
I disagree with that.
I disagree.
joe rogan
Well, you can disagree all day.
What's been the closest upset, Joe?
Those are little human beings.
eddie bravo
What do you mean anything can happen can happen?
Because of the weight.
Explain that.
He just said anything can happen and you say I disagree.
unidentified
Yeah.
eddie bravo
Because of the weight.
unidentified
Because of the weight class.
eddie bravo
What can't happen because of the weight?
joe rogan
Guys can get KO'd, bro.
unidentified
Because they're so light.
eddie bravo
Guys will get KO'd.
They do get KO'd.
Not maybe as often.
unidentified
Not a lot.
eddie bravo
But they do.
unidentified
Not a lot.
joe rogan
Statistics are on my side.
He's a sizist.
eddie bravo
But anything can happen.
A knockout can happen, though.
unidentified
I like statistics.
eddie bravo
But a knockout can happen.
One punch dog out can't happen.
And the opposite end of the spectrum is a decision can happen.
unidentified
Yes.
eddie bravo
So anything can happen.
joe rogan
Can I just stop this before this fight and say this is my favorite thing to do in my whole life?
unidentified
I love these.
The best.
I love this more than anything I do in my life.
Hell yeah.
I woke up this morning crunk as fuck about it.
eddie bravo
Are you kidding?
unidentified
Me driving here, I'm like, I don't want to be late!
eddie bravo
Yes!
bryan callen
So stupid.
We must watch this because he's ready.
joe rogan
And again, here's the thing I'm saying.
I've been singing this dude's praises forever.
I don't think Mighty Mouse gets enough respect.
I don't think he gets the respect that he deserves.
eddie bravo
Respect him, Brendan.
joe rogan
Respect him.
eddie bravo
I said your name right, so you say his name right.
unidentified
I love Mighty Mouse.
He's going to murk this fucking guy.
joe rogan
But this is what I think.
Forget about all the weight and all that stuff.
You're right.
You make some really good points.
But as far as an expression of martial arts talent, that's the finest I've ever seen in my life.
I don't give a fuck what he weighs.
As far as expression of martial arts talent, that's the finest I've ever seen.
So if Tim Elliott can beat him, which he absolutely can because it's Wednesday and Wednesdays.
Anything can happen today.
unidentified
The Little Boys Club.
joe rogan
You never know, bro.
You're most likely right.
You never know.
unidentified
The odds are on my side.
joe rogan
Dude, people get injured.
Weird shit happens.
Hands break.
Knees pop.
Backs go.
unidentified
Watch what Mighty Mouse does this for.
bryan callen
God, Mighty Mouse can move.
joe rogan
A guy zigs when he should have zagged.
bryan callen
Changes it up.
unidentified
Oh, oh.
bryan callen
Blocking.
Blocking.
joe rogan
Oh, listen, man.
Blocking.
You never know, man.
Elliot's doing some funky shit.
You never know.
You never know, dude.
Weird shit happens.
The world is strange.
bryan callen
Strange move so quickly.
joe rogan
Look at this.
Mighty Mouse is not that strange.
unidentified
Mighty Mouse is not that strange.
eddie bravo
Maybe it's because they're small.
joe rogan
Look at this.
Tim Elliott.
Good fucking shots from the bottom.
It's good scramble.
Good scramble.
Mighty Mouse looking for the arm bar.
eddie bravo
Spinning.
Oh, look at this.
joe rogan
Left knee's got to get into play.
Can't do it.
Switches to triangle.
Can't do that.
eddie bravo
Damn, Tim Elliott got some high level jits.
joe rogan
Side control.
eddie bravo
That's high level jits right there.
unidentified
Fuck yeah.
eddie bravo
That's high level.
Because if you just did that to Demetrius, just get side control in top position, you're Yeah, look at this.
Already.
unidentified
That's it.
eddie bravo
That's high level right there.
Look, he's on top half controlling him.
unidentified
Can you imagine he submitted Mighty Mouse right now?
I talked to all that shit.
joe rogan
Half guard here, holding on to the neck.
eddie bravo
I like this position.
unidentified
Look at that bass.
joe rogan
Look at that bass.
unidentified
Good bass.
joe rogan
Good wrestler's bass.
eddie bravo
But...
joe rogan
Mighty Mouse is throwing those legs up, but it's kind of loose.
eddie bravo
Look at this bass.
Look at this bass and balance.
joe rogan
This is why MMA is beautiful, folks.
unidentified
The beauty of all that.
joe rogan
This is why MMA is beautiful.
Look at this.
Elliot with a good grip.
Oh, nice knee to the head.
eddie bravo
Elliot is high-level grappler.
unidentified
Guillotine!
eddie bravo
Elliot is high-level.
unidentified
Please don't get submitted.
Oh, no, he's passing.
joe rogan
Oh, yo, dude.
He's not necessarily passing.
eddie bravo
It could be over.
Okay, it could.
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
Holy shit.
unidentified
Oh, shit, he rolled, son.
joe rogan
He switched it to a darts.
eddie bravo
Oh, look at that.
Oh, he switched to the darts!
joe rogan
He's got it deep!
eddie bravo
Dude, get out of here.
He's high level.
unidentified
I was talking all that shit.
eddie bravo
I was trying to tell you.
I was trying to tell you it's over.
He's going to sleep.
He's going to sleep.
It's over.
He's going to sleep.
unidentified
I was talking all that mess.
joe rogan
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
DJ's holding that thumb.
unidentified
It's goddamn Demetrius Johnson.
joe rogan
DJ's got a little space there.
He's got a little space.
See where he's using his thumbs?
bryan callen
That looks so deep.
eddie bravo
That looks so deep.
unidentified
It's very deep.
joe rogan
It's very deep, but DJ's not going to prematurely tap.
And you see his right thumb?
eddie bravo
You know what?
The fact that he got that deep so quick means that he knows it takes a while sometimes.
He knows it takes a while.
unidentified
He's getting all fours.
eddie bravo
You've got to wear them down.
He knows that.
bryan callen
He's good now.
joe rogan
Oh, he's out!
Did you see that right there?
bryan callen
That's why Demetrius Johnson is so amazing.
eddie bravo
Damn, look at he's on fire!
Look at Demetrius, he's on fire!
bryan callen
Holy shit, he's on fire!
unidentified
He's supposed to be on fire!
joe rogan
He's supposed to be on fire!
Look at him, he's going to try to submit to Melian now.
bryan callen
Demetrius Johnson answering back!
joe rogan
Look at this.
He snapped in the neck.
He's going to try to go for that game.
He's going to spin to the back.
Johnson on top.
bryan callen
You know what?
joe rogan
This is a fight, folks.
This is a fight.
bryan callen
That's remarkable.
joe rogan
Holy shit.
What if he gets him with the exact same technique?
eddie bravo
That's remarkable.
joe rogan
Oh, look at this.
He's got an arm run under the neck.
eddie bravo
Demetrius will get him in the same shit.
He'll get him with the same shit.
joe rogan
He might.
He looks like he's moving there.
He's moving there.
He's baiting him for the underhook on the left side.
eddie bravo
There's so much game right there.
joe rogan
If he uses his left underhook.
eddie bravo
You're just sprawled out and you've got a head or an arm.
Dude, you know the amount of game that's required?
unidentified
You know what?
bryan callen
Demetrius Johnson was like, how dare you?
joe rogan
Look at this.
unidentified
He's got it now.
joe rogan
He's going for the underhook.
He can get him with the exact same technique if he punches that fucking right arm under.
Let's see if he punches that right arm under.
Nope, he doesn't even have it in the place.
unidentified
Oh, look at this.
joe rogan
Elliot back up.
Very nice.
Very nice.
Jesus Christ.
unidentified
Joe, I'll say this with the OSP John's talk.
Look at that, though.
joe rogan
Good fucking movement there.
Good movement avoiding all those punches.
Even if he's tired.
That was good head movement there.
unidentified
That's fine, man.
joe rogan
That's fine.
eddie bravo
No, dudes don't put hands on knees.
joe rogan
That's not fine.
eddie bravo
That's not fine.
joe rogan
Unless you're fucking around and you want the dude to think you're tired.
eddie bravo
Tell me who's fucked around like that.
unidentified
Elliot's fucked around and it's worked.
eddie bravo
He's clipped him!
joe rogan
Oh my god!
eddie bravo
Elliot is not playing.
joe rogan
He's tired.
Look at him, he's tired as fuck!
Look at him!
He wasn't playing.
Let's not dwell on that.
He just knocked Mighty Mouth down.
unidentified
Oh!
joe rogan
Beautiful takedown!
What the fuck is going on?
eddie bravo
Elliot is on top of the world at this division right now.
joe rogan
Elliot is winning.
He's got a rock in this round.
He's on top.
unidentified
Like I said, anything can happen.
eddie bravo
Hey listen, it has nothing to do with whites.
unidentified
Every day in MMA is Wednesday on the Mickey Mouse Club.
Even in the little boys club.
Yup, you're right.
eddie bravo
Now what's going on right here?
Top F, what's going on right here?
joe rogan
This is crazy.
eddie bravo
What's going on right here?
joe rogan
Demetrius Johnson, he's hurting here.
eddie bravo
He just woke up.
Demetrius just woke up and said, what the fuck am I doing?
joe rogan
He's trying to get back up to his feet, but he's getting guillotined here.
He's got to be real careful with that left arm.
This is Elliot's shit, man.
He's really good at closing the show from here.
bryan callen
Ten seconds, ten seconds.
joe rogan
Oh, he pushed it off.
He pushed it off.
Very nice.
unidentified
You gotta move John to number one now, Joe.
eddie bravo
That is oil.
unidentified
You gotta move John to number one.
joe rogan
Well, it depends on how this plays out, but I see your point now.
unidentified
You've never seen John in trouble like this, ever.
joe rogan
Oh, you have in the Gustafson fight.
He was in trouble in the Gustafson fight.
unidentified
Not this big of trouble.
joe rogan
No, not this big of trouble.
Not like this.
Not rocked.
No, but Vitor Belfort did catch him in an armbar.
unidentified
And what did he do?
joe rogan
Had him fully extended.
unidentified
He said, oh, cool.
My arm's been extended.
joe rogan
Gadoosh!
Here's the thing he didn't do.
He didn't tap, which was fucking substantial.
unidentified
A lot of guys.
eddie bravo
Who's second on your list?
I know you like Jon Jones.
We know this.
unidentified
Second is Connor Mighty Mouse.
Mighty Mouse is probably like four or five for me because of his weight class.
eddie bravo
He rose on your shit.
He rose.
unidentified
That's hard to say, man.
eddie bravo
Because he was like seven or eight last time we did.
unidentified
Never seven or eight.
Never seven or eight.
eddie bravo
Dude, he rose like a motherfucker and shit.
Hell yeah with those fucking counter lefts.
joe rogan
Here's what I think about top ten pound for pound.
eddie bravo
Those kind of bricks where he's just waiting for you.
Who's going to take that shit?
joe rogan
Let me ask you if you guys agree with me.
This is how I feel about when you start talking about top ten pound for pound.
My feeling is that it's a fun debate.
eddie bravo
Correct.
joe rogan
And that the reality is you don't really know whether it's number one or number two or number three.
unidentified
Because there's an argument for the girl cyborg.
joe rogan
The girl cyborg?
unidentified
Top five!
joe rogan
Yeah, it's totally an argument.
unidentified
Girl cyborg, top five.
joe rogan
Look at this.
bryan callen
But you've got to look at longevity.
You've got to look at somebody who was on top for so long who beat up.
Like Anderson Silva did it all.
joe rogan
Look at this, man.
Look at this.
Tim Melviot went karate.
Look at this.
He went full sideways.
unidentified
Dude, he's so relaxed.
It's impressive.
joe rogan
Well, he dominated in several moments of that round.
brendan schaub
But he was doing it in the first round, too, before he was really...
eddie bravo
That's racist.
bryan callen
Is Tim tired is the question.
joe rogan
Oh, man, man, man.
Look at this.
bryan callen
Oh!
eddie bravo
He's all relaxed.
joe rogan
Damn, look at him.
He's standing in front of him.
Man, wow, the more relaxed he can stay like that, if he can really avoid shots and turn things into a grappling machine again.
eddie bravo
Can you imagine if a relaxed was racist?
Like, you know, athletic is racist.
You're like, he's so relaxed.
joe rogan
Dude, that's racist!
unidentified
What are you saying, he's white?
eddie bravo
Because Mexicans are really relaxed.
unidentified
Because he's white and he's relaxed.
You see a Mexican guy?
You're stupid.
eddie bravo
You see Henry Cejudo, you're like, he's so relaxed.
unidentified
That's racist!
eddie bravo
What are you saying, he's lazy?
joe rogan
Yo, dude, people say that about me all the time.
If I call Tyron Wood, we'll be explosive.
What the fuck else am I supposed to do?
eddie bravo
That's not racist!
joe rogan
Will you just look at him?
unidentified
Can you imagine when smooth becomes racist?
eddie bravo
Dude, he's smooth.
unidentified
Like, fuck you!
bryan callen
Oh shit, look at Timothy.
unidentified
Look at this.
That's not a submission there.
eddie bravo
Fucking smooth.
Fuck you, I'm not smooth.
What, I was born smooth?
joe rogan
Hey, man, you never know, man.
His elbow, you look where his bicep is in the ear, it's not going up, it's going down.
unidentified
He's tired.
joe rogan
You might not, but look at it.
See how his elbow, like, you look where his bicep placement is, his bicep is getting closer and closer to the other.
unidentified
It doesn't matter because he's on the opposite side.
joe rogan
You're right, he's in the wrong side.
But if a guy's really good at that empty half position...
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
unidentified
Oh!
eddie bravo
Oh, Mighty Mouse takes it back.
Oh, Mighty Mouse can take it back like a motherfucker.
bryan callen
Oh, shit.
unidentified
Mighty Mouse is no joke.
eddie bravo
This is some super technical shit.
joe rogan
Look at this.
eddie bravo
That was a nice knee.
Defensively and offensively.
joe rogan
Oh, he's got it in the neck.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
Let's see.
Elliot's going to wonder.
eddie bravo
Look at that.
joe rogan
Oh, look at that.
Mighty Mouse.
Mighty Mouse.
eddie bravo
Look at that.
unidentified
Holy shit.
eddie bravo
That's a little arm triangle.
That's a fucking chopping block right there.
unidentified
Boom.
eddie bravo
That's a chopping block right there.
unidentified
Elliott's not even ranked.
What are you ranking at?
eddie bravo
That's a good move right there.
If he doesn't win, top five.
That's good.
joe rogan
He's in a good position.
eddie bravo
It keeps him from getting in that crucifix, fucking striking crucifix.
You know what I mean?
joe rogan
Yeah.
eddie bravo
Because he needs his arm on the other side of his head for that.
joe rogan
He smashed him down with those.
And now let's see if he can pass.
Oh, nice.
eddie bravo
Elliott's left arm was on the other side of his head.
Ooh, that's Khabib shit.
That's Khabib.
joe rogan
He's looking for that.
eddie bravo
That's salivary shit.
You can't put your arm on the other side because you're going to get fucked.
Oh, look, right there.
Right there, I'd go inverted arm bar right away.
joe rogan
Oh, yeah, look at this.
eddie bravo
Look at that, right away.
bryan callen
He's always going for something.
Always, always.
joe rogan
Look at that, nice knee play by Elliot.
He got that knee into position.
eddie bravo
Elliott is a high-level grappler, man.
joe rogan
You can see it, man.
unidentified
Super high level.
eddie bravo
Dude, he's right there.
Look at all this shit that's going on right here.
It's not about the submission.
It's about the wars.
bryan callen
Dude, Elliott beat every champion and every weight class in his division.
eddie bravo
The path of wars before the submission even comes out.
unidentified
That's what's going on.
bryan callen
That's what I mean.
unidentified
Not every.
eddie bravo
There's so many wars going on.
bryan callen
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
eddie bravo
Look at his arms on the other side.
unidentified
That's a crucifix.
He's gonna get out there.
eddie bravo
But his left arm's fucked.
He needs to get his left hand on the other side of his head right there.
Once he's there, he's good.
He needs to keep it over there.
But not that much over there because then you give up a side choke.
That's my boy Juan right there.
You gotta be the master of keeping it.
joe rogan
It looks like he's gonna go for that Kimura.
He's trying to go for that inverted arm bar from the half guard.
unidentified
Oh shit, he's got a good Kimura.
joe rogan
That's one move that you really can get from the half guard, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
joe rogan
Especially if you can step over.
Matt Hughes vs.
Joe Riggs.
eddie bravo
It all depends on which Kimura you want.
If you want an inverted Kimura, you have to be in half guard.
If you want the regular Kimura, you could pass and be in side control.
But if you're gonna do that inverted one, you can't do it from side control.
You have to jump into half guard.
joe rogan
Frank Mayer was a master at that.
Yeah, it actually helps your position.
eddie bravo
You have to hold him.
You're holding him in half guard.
joe rogan
That's really interesting.
That's the first time I've ever thought about that.
That's like maybe the one position.
eddie bravo
No, Japanese necktie is the same thing.
Japanese necktie is the exact same thing.
You want to stay there.
joe rogan
Right, you need to let it.
unidentified
Because it locks them down, right, Eddie?
eddie bravo
Yeah.
In the inverted arm bar, it's all about the angle.
So you know what?
I don't want to pass after all.
You know what?
We're going to stay in half guard.
I don't even want to pass.
And even if I was passed, if I went for the inverted arm bar, I would jump in the half guard just to control the hips.
joe rogan
Look at this.
DJ's taking his back.
No, he's not taking his back.
Look at this.
Elliot wins the position more.
unidentified
Gee, DJ, go for the head kick.
When he had his back standing up.
joe rogan
Elliot on top here, DJ, trying to control position.
unidentified
It's one to one, by the way.
joe rogan
Wow, this is crazy.
Elliot on top again.
unidentified
This is crazy.
eddie bravo
Elliot got serious grapple.
unidentified
Elliot got serious grapple.
eddie bravo
That's high level.
With the grease and the sweat, that makes it even harder to stay tight and stay controlled shit.
To keep position and keep dominant positions and all that grease and sweat and all that Vaseline all over your fucking eyes and all over your back and all over your fucking arms.
joe rogan
Keep talking, I'm taking my pants off.
Keep fucking talking.
unidentified
Keep going.
We said Vaseline, and I'm like, this party's live.
joe rogan
This party's live.
bryan callen
Impose your will on me.
Impose your will on me.
joe rogan
Give me some volume, young Jamie.
I want to hear some Matt Hume knowledge.
eddie bravo
You had a sex story.
joe rogan
I did.
Volume.
unidentified
First time he's lost around.
eddie bravo
That's music.
You don't shoot music.
unidentified
I want to hear what he's saying.
eddie bravo
That's part of it.
bryan callen
Damn it.
joe rogan
Ah, fuck.
I want to hear Mad Hume advice.
eddie bravo
Damn, look at him jumping around.
unidentified
Damn, look at him.
eddie bravo
Look at that cardio.
That dude did sprints.
It's all about, you guys talking about rounds.
I did nine rounds.
I did seven rounds.
I did eight rounds.
I did nine rounds.
I did ten rounds.
I trained six rounds.
unidentified
And when I train six, it's about fucking sprints.
How many times do you run a sprint?
When are you doing a sprint?
Round three.
eddie bravo
That's where the cardio's coming, not the rounds you're sparring in.
joe rogan
Round three.
eddie bravo
That's not realistic.
It's the fucking sprint.
bryan callen
He changes up from southpaw to right.
unidentified
Look at that.
joe rogan
If this guy wins and Trump is president, America has gone crazy.
unidentified
Is it their biggest upset in UFC history?
Hey, listen.
joe rogan
America's gone crazy.
eddie bravo
Did you vote for Hillary?
Callan?
bryan callen
I didn't.
unidentified
No!
bryan callen
My God!
joe rogan
No!
Not doing this fight!
No!
Not doing this fight!
unidentified
No!
joe rogan
Eddie, stop it!
eddie bravo
We'll come back to it!
unidentified
No, no!
eddie bravo
Tell me the truth!
unidentified
No, no, no!
eddie bravo
Tell me the truth!
unidentified
Eddie, please!
You voted for Hillary!
Eddie, please!
Eddie, please!
Real quick!

joe rogan
Eddie, no!
Look!
It's a fight!
It's a fight!
unidentified
Look at this!
joe rogan
He's got his back!
eddie bravo
He's got his back!
unidentified
Oh!
joe rogan
Stop!
bryan callen
Please stop!
joe rogan
Eddie, please!
unidentified
Eddie, it's like you're a jiu-jitsu!
joe rogan
Please, Eddie, stop.
unidentified
Look at that, Eddie!
Please!
bryan callen
Eddie, I'm joking.
I'm messing with you.
eddie bravo
Okay, good.
unidentified
Look how he chopped the arm, son.
Oh!
bryan callen
Oh, he's covering his nose!
unidentified
You're not allowed to do that, are you?
joe rogan
Oh my god, that was close.
eddie bravo
Oh shit, look at that.
unidentified
Oh!
joe rogan
He's got the neck.
eddie bravo
He's got the neck.
unidentified
Oh, it's out of the neck.
Oh shit!
eddie bravo
Oh, look at these guys.
unidentified
I didn't watch one time.
eddie bravo
These guys think they're all jujits.
joe rogan
Look at his takedown, man.
Very nice takedown.
eddie bravo
Jesus Christ!
Look at this.
These guys are going back.
joe rogan
He's turning it into a grappling match and he looks like he's getting the better of these positions.
unidentified
Oh, he's owning him grappling.
eddie bravo
Dude.
unidentified
Elliot.
joe rogan
This is incredible.
unidentified
Amazing.
bryan callen
I wouldn't say that.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
No, but look at this.
Elliot hangs on.
eddie bravo
That's some jiu-jitsu and wrestling.
joe rogan
He rolled him and Elliot stayed on top the entire time.
This is incredible.
Look, he's got the leg.
eddie bravo
He tripped him down.
He tripped him down.
Tim Elliot wrestled 100%.
joe rogan
Oh, shit.
This is incredible.
eddie bravo
Oh, look at this shit.
unidentified
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
Oh, he's getting lit up, man.
He's getting lit up.
eddie bravo
This is third round?
unidentified
I've never seen Johnson kind of like, God, what the hell do I do here?
eddie bravo
Damn, he must have been running sprints.
bryan callen
Elliot doesn't get tired.
eddie bravo
He's a chimp.
bryan callen
He's a chimp.
unidentified
He's so strong.
Are you kidding?
That's racist.
joe rogan
That's a really good race.
No, it's white.
We're lucky he's white.
unidentified
Elliot is so lucky he's white.
bryan callen
Elliot, he's got simian strength.
eddie bravo
I didn't say swim sprint.
I said regular sprint.
Swim, swim sprint is racist.
bryan callen
Shit doesn't work on Elliot.
joe rogan
Okay, but look at this.
Demetrius is on top.
He's got that right arm trapped.
Looking for that head and arm position.
eddie bravo
Look at that past.
Oh, but not so...
joe rogan
Not totally past.
Not really past.
Oh, captured.
unidentified
Not really past.
bryan callen
Elliot looks like he's fueled on meth.
eddie bravo
Not really past.
joe rogan
Because he's white and white trash?
Is that what you're saying?
unidentified
Those stats are off.
joe rogan
Truck stuff?
eddie bravo
The stereotype of white people getting their guard pass, I'm sick of it.
And I'm gonna fucking stand up, and right here on the Joe Rogan Experience, I'm not gonna stand for it, okay?
And I love Hillary, and we're not...
joe rogan
Tim Elliott in this fight, man.
unidentified
White people, Mexicans get passed, what about that?
eddie bravo
Black people get passed.
unidentified
What about that?
joe rogan
Let's not get political.
bryan callen
I didn't like either one of those candidates.
joe rogan
Let's watch this fight.
No politics, Brian Callen.
unidentified
Brian, don't engage.
joe rogan
I'm not saying anything.
bryan callen
I'm watching the fight.
unidentified
Don't engage.
bryan callen
This is an amazing fight.
This is artistry.
joe rogan
This is your protocol.
You're a cyborg.
This is Battlestar Galactica.
Do not engage.
eddie bravo
The CIA is not real.
I was playing.
I was playing.
bryan callen
Let's watch the fight.
joe rogan
Mighty Mouse on top here, folks.
Round three of five.
Mighty Mouse looking to pass that guard.
He gets over it.
No, he didn't.
No, he doesn't.
eddie bravo
No, he didn't.
joe rogan
Elliot drags him right back in.
Strong guard game.
unidentified
It's tough because Elliot was winning earlier this round.
Now he's probably losing.
eddie bravo
That's racist.
joe rogan
Oh, look at this.
He keeps throwing those legs up, man.
Elliot's not playing games.
But Mighty Mouse takes the back.
unidentified
Look at him.
joe rogan
He rolls right back into half guard again.
Nice.
Oh, look at those elbows.
eddie bravo
Look how smart he is.
He's just throwing elbows.
Why not just throw elbows?
joe rogan
Look at this.
eddie bravo
Look at this guard with Tansh.
unidentified
Elliot got some serious happening.
bryan callen
With Tansh.
eddie bravo
Happening.
joe rogan
He's very good off of his back, I'll tell you that.
He's super good defensively.
eddie bravo
As he gets his guard passed, I apologize.
joe rogan
Mighty Mouse Moose.
eddie bravo
But look at this shit he does right in front of side control.
He did this before.
joe rogan
He just wraps him up.
Eli's my new trader at 125 pounder.
Triangles his own arm, traps Mighty Mouse, makes it so Mighty Mouse can't do shit.
And Mighty Mouse is almost kind of complaining.
Damn, that's a serious move.
bryan callen
Like, what did you expect?
joe rogan
I'm going to let you loose so you can hit me?
unidentified
That's a good move.
It's great if they stand up.
Stand me back up.
joe rogan
This is beautiful.
unidentified
Why stand him up?
joe rogan
This is a beautiful position.
unidentified
It's a power position too.
joe rogan
This is a good position, man.
unidentified
Yeah, great position.
joe rogan
That's very interesting.
I haven't seen someone do that effectively in a world championship fight.
Oh, he lost it, man.
He lost it.
Let's see if he gets it back.
unidentified
Look at this.
eddie bravo
Look at that.
That's a reverse triangle right there.
joe rogan
That kid doesn't have an arm, man.
eddie bravo
All that grease on the ball head.
Forget about that shit.
joe rogan
He's moving many steps ahead too, though.
eddie bravo
You don't think that's a factor?
unidentified
The ball head and the grease?
joe rogan
Come on, man.
unidentified
For sure.
Dude, get out of here.
eddie bravo
If he would've just had a nice fuckin' Brendan Schraub, little fuckin'...
Or Shaw.
joe rogan
Or Shaw.
Clay Guida.
eddie bravo
Or a little Brian Callen?
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
Yeah.
eddie bravo
He would've been fucked.
Dude, this is crazy.
bryan callen
This is only the third round, right?
unidentified
Yes.
joe rogan
That's a great fight.
We've got ten minutes left, boys.
unidentified
Elliot is up.
bryan callen
He just is winning, by the way.
joe rogan
Okay, that's nice, Brian.
unidentified
Was that the third round?
joe rogan
Jesus Christ, you got to rub it in my face?
eddie bravo
Or was that the fourth round?
Third round or fourth round?
unidentified
That was the third.
joe rogan
That was the third.
unidentified
It's 2-1.
joe rogan
This is a great fight.
unidentified
Mighty Mouse.
Great fight.
joe rogan
But here's a good thing.
A lot of people thought this was a wash.
They thought that Tim Elliott was out of his league.
This guy.
I'll be the first to admit it.
We're looking at a great fight.
So, all bullshit aside, we're joking around here, and if you listen to anything that we say tonight, and you think, oh my god, their opinions are so fucked up, we're intoxicated, and we're not serious.
So, you need to know, like, if you're looking at the actual fight itself, this is a great, great fight, and Tim Elliott deserves all the respect in the world.
unidentified
He should be ranked in the top five.
brendan schaub
Even if he loses this fight, I'm not saying he's gonna lose, but if he does, you have to rank him in the top five.
joe rogan
It's an amazing performance.
eddie bravo
You can't change your stance now, it's too late.
You can't change your stance in the middle of the fight.
joe rogan
It's amazing performance, man.
unidentified
I'm just saying, my mouse isn't pound for pound number one anyway.
joe rogan
Well, you are based on what you've seen, like the results inside the octagon.
That's who you are.
And you've got to add this in.
You have to add this in.
And in this fight, he's getting dominated in ground exchanges by Tim Mellion.
unidentified
By a guy who's not ranked in the top.
15?
joe rogan
Right.
You have to add that in.
If you want to be objective, you have to add that in.
So then you'd have to look at him.
You'd have to, like, who are the other guys besides Dominick Cruz?
And Dominick Cruz, of course, you're really only doing it based on his past record, the TJ victory, and then the domination over Uriah Faber, right?
unidentified
Yeah, he's not active enough.
joe rogan
You'd want to wait until Cody and him fight.
eddie bravo
Damn, it's fourth round, man.
joe rogan
Other than them, who else is in the running other than John?
bryan callen
Damn, look at Elliot.
The way he's holding his hands.
eddie bravo
That's the new great white hope right there.
Who else is white?
joe rogan
Look at this!
eddie bravo
Brian Callen, you know.
joe rogan
Karate shit.
unidentified
Joe, here's one for you.
bryan callen
Look at this.

Okay, he was born there, but what's his name?
joe rogan
We're all immigrants.
bryan callen
Hey, you fucking drunks.
You're racist.
eddie bravo
I'm talking about the highest white guy in the UFC. He's not the highest white guy.
joe rogan
What are you talking about?
He's the heavyweight champion of the world.
He can kill all of them.
bryan callen
Dana White.
joe rogan
Look, classically, the heavyweight has always been the guy who could beat everybody below him.
unidentified
Is there any other white guy, American white guy, who holds a belt?
joe rogan
Eddie Bravo, please.
They don't have white weight classes because the small guy is too fast for the big guy.
They have weight classes because the big guy is too big for the small guy.
eddie bravo
Is there another white guy that holds a belt in the UFC? Answer me that.

eddie bravo
It's not over.
joe rogan

bryan callen
Tim Elliott is far from over.
joe rogan
Look, he doesn't even have that right hook.
Far from over.
unidentified
God!
Damn it!
Tim Elliott!
eddie bravo
He wasn't even close!
unidentified
He's my fucking hero!
bryan callen
He's such a badass.
joe rogan
He didn't even have the right hook.
bryan callen
What a badass.
Oh my god.
Human will.
joe rogan
He's a good niece to the shoulders in the back, man.
I like that.
eddie bravo

joe rogan

That guy's from San Diego.
eddie bravo
He's Mexican.

It's on the wrong side of that head.
joe rogan
I hate that goddamn crucifix.
eddie bravo
Look at that right arm.
It's on the wrong side of the head.
You can't have it on that side ever.
It's always got a frame, goddammit.
You gotta have that frame.
joe rogan
Look at him answering back.
Which arm are you talking about, Eddie?
eddie bravo
Well, he's good now.
joe rogan
Yeah, but what were you talking about?
Like, if you could describe it, if you could break down that position.
eddie bravo
His left arm needs to be on Demetrius Johnson's left shoulder, on the left side of his neck.
joe rogan
To push him away.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
I'm fucked up right now.
unidentified
I'm sorry wrong side It's like he's in the story you meant right?
eddie bravo
Yeah, okay now We're gonna know it's forget what I just said now.
joe rogan
It's totally different cuz they're inside control How was that DJ trying to set up a right?
eddie bravo
See right there, you know, he's got old Now now his left arm is in a good spot fight.
Yeah, his left arm is in a good spot If his left arm is on the other side of Demetrius head that's a bad spot.
That's That's where he's going to get that cushion.
So he's got to keep it on this side.
joe rogan
So he's got to frame him off.
eddie bravo
Just always frame him.
Just frame.
It's the frame.
You don't want to go on the other side.
joe rogan
Do you like this darts?
Do you ever hit that darts from when guys pass into your side control?
Do you ever let guys out of half guard into side control to catch that darts?
unidentified
You know what?
eddie bravo
In this situation, it's super technical.
What I would do, I can't just say what I would do.
joe rogan
No, no, that's not what I'm asking.
I'm not asking right here, but I'm asking, do you like, guys?
Do you know that Jeff Glover, he loves that position?
eddie bravo
Oh, look at that.
unidentified
Oh, step over.
eddie bravo
It's nasty.
No, he's got his arms straight.
bryan callen

eddie bravo
Uh-oh.
joe rogan
Oh, it doesn't look good.

eddie bravo

unidentified
Tim Elliott for president!
bryan callen
He should have stuck with that tomorrow.
joe rogan
White power.

joe rogan
Callan's on the Jew side.
You voted for Hillary.
unidentified
You Let Brandon talk for a second.
After the fight politics.
Here's one that no one talks about, but they should.
Michael Bisping, pound for pound top.
Think of the guys he's lost to.
Think of the guys he's beat.
He's champ now.
bryan callen
He's the most wins in the UFC. He's great, but he's also been fighting a long time, but he's also lost handedly, whereas Anderson Silva's lost once.
unidentified
Who's...
joe rogan
Yeah, when he was 40!
unidentified
What do you mean when he was 40?

joe rogan
He makes a good point.
People deny it based on bad experiences that he had inside the Octagon.
But his best experience inside the Octagon was the Luke Rockhold fight, which is goddamn spectacular.
unidentified
Knocked him out.
joe rogan
Knocked him out in one round.
unidentified
But he also got completely demolished the first fight.
bryan callen
He got beat by Chia Sonnen.
He got beat by a guy.
eddie bravo
Kellen, in your boy's defense, he just said the most brilliant thing ever.
He said, who's the champ right now?
Can you imagine how hard it would be to be the champ right now at one fucking 85?
joe rogan
Eddie, please, this fight is going on.
unidentified
Let's watch this fight.
eddie bravo
He's the fucking champ right now.
joe rogan
Guys, this fight's going on.
It's really good.
unidentified
And it's the last round.
joe rogan
It's good.
He gets him!
He shot in for the takedown and he got him down!
Dude, Elliot's a beast.
bryan callen
Are you kidding me?
joe rogan
This is incredible.
This is round five, son, and Elliot's on top.
bryan callen
That's crazy.
joe rogan
Mighty Mouse trying to roll to an armbar.
Denied.
unidentified
Is anyone else rooting for Tim Elliot?
Is anyone else kind of rooting for that?
joe rogan
I told you.
I knew you were all white-powered up.
eddie bravo
Damn!
bryan callen
I was hoping I was wrong.
I don't even see color.
I don't even know who's black or white.
joe rogan
Is that what that is?
eddie bravo
He's got his fucking army.
Is that Hitler's shit?
bryan callen
Oh yeah, bro.
I'm literally so unprejudiced I can't tell who's black or white.
joe rogan
How do you know if you're in a red state?
eddie bravo
You know me?
I don't care if no one's green or purple or orange.
I fucking don't care if they're fucking beige.
Or green or fucking magenta?
joe rogan
Guys, please, there's a couple minutes left.
eddie bravo
Three minutes left.
joe rogan
Let's watch the fight.
Eddie Bravo, three minutes left.
Let's watch this fight.
unidentified
You should've thought about that before you get a mouth off.
bryan callen
Demetrius still in control.
unidentified
It looks like he just wants to watch TV right now, right?
eddie bravo
Doesn't it look like he wants to watch Netflix?
bryan callen
Look at him!
Demetrius has dominated, has controlled him, Elliot.
But Elliot's been...
eddie bravo
I don't think it's more of a control.
I think it's more of like he's just trying to be who he wants to be.
unidentified
Good God, Eddie.
joe rogan
Oh my God.
We've got to find out what's the amount that turns you into a gremlin.
unidentified
Yeah, which part?
joe rogan
What's the matter of food after midnight?
unidentified
You know what?
I did dump a shitload of water into his glass.
eddie bravo
You want to go up?
We can go up.
I'm being fucking tame right now.
You are.
unidentified
No, when this fight's over, I want you to release the fucking gremlins.
Release the tech planet gremlin.
Once this fight's over, I'm waiting for that.
eddie bravo
I'm gonna keep my mouth shut.
I'm gonna keep my mouth shut.
joe rogan
I think to all of us, it seems like all of us are talking over everybody.
eddie bravo
We need to stop this.
I got this ball.
joe rogan
We can talk about anything in a moment.
Let's just watch the last two and a half minutes of this fight.
unidentified
Let's try that.
eddie bravo
Two and a half minutes.
unidentified
Let's be civilized.
eddie bravo
Shut the fuck up, guys.
unidentified
Let's just watch this shit.
eddie bravo
I'm with Joe.
I'm with Joe.
You guys on some other shit.
I'm trying to watch these fights.
unidentified
Now's when you should shut the fuck up.
We got, what the fuck is, this is like Romero Duran versus Aaron Pryor.
joe rogan
Holy shit.
Look at these, passing on the left, hops over, Mighty Mouse.
eddie bravo
This is some...
Oh, look at this.
joe rogan
Look at this shit.
Demelia gets that knee back in play again.
eddie bravo
Look at that, some half guard.
This is like real shit going on right here.
unidentified
People are like, oh, they're just trying to buttfuck each other.
eddie bravo
No, they're trying to grapple each other.
It has nothing to do with...
Reproduction.
It has nothing to do with that.
joe rogan
It's going to be interesting because for Mighty Mouse, you know, he was putting Elliot in danger more than Elliot was putting him in danger other than that one time.
Yeah, just that one time.
Oh, Mighty Mouse is winning this fight.
eddie bravo
That's racist.
Come on, man.
That's reverse.
That's reverse racism.
joe rogan
He's going for it again.
Eddie Bravo, what's he doing wrong here?
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
He's not doing anything wrong right here.
brendan schaub
Look how he's got control of that wrist.
eddie bravo
If he just really puts all this weight on his hand instead of the wrist, that's even better.
But he lost control right here.
joe rogan
He tried to switch hands, it looks like.
eddie bravo
In that position, when you pin that hand down, a lot of people like to pin that wrist down.
It's better to fucking grab that hand.
Because when you grab that hand and you pin it down, they can't move that arm at all.
It's like a tremendous difference.
joe rogan
Oh, shit.
bryan callen
He rips his arm out.
joe rogan
Look at that, Elliot going towards the Kimura.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
Look at this.
Elliot got some serious grappling.
unidentified
Dude, how about to find Mighty Mouse's opponent?
They have to do the ultimate fighter.
eddie bravo
Oh, he turns it around.
unidentified
Oh, my God!
joe rogan
He's out.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
joe rogan
No, he's not out.
This is crazy.
Look at this.
This is incredible.
Mighty Mouse is going for it.
eddie bravo
Oh, full guard, butterfly, double underhooks.
Where is he going to go?
Is he going to go full guard from here?
Is he going to keep those underhooks?
joe rogan
What is he going to do?
eddie bravo
Oh, he's going to go to full guard from here.
Look, he's got the feet up on the hips.
But he's letting an underhook go.
So we'll see what he wants.
Okay, he changed everything now.
Okay, so now he's got...
Okay.
joe rogan
At these points, how hard...
eddie bravo
There's so much game from here.
I mean, there's like, where are you going?
joe rogan
Where are you going?
eddie bravo
It's a whole different game from here.
unidentified
You get energy when you know there's only a minute left, though.
joe rogan
Yeah, but this is like a few seconds.
A grueling fight.
You gotta wonder.
eddie bravo
This is so technical.
Keeping that top half position.
Damn.
unidentified
Damn.
joe rogan
It's gonna go over with him with double X-lock here.
unidentified
If he can't block his hands, it's set.
eddie bravo
If he would've went to the Damien Maia strategy, just straight up, forget the Kimura, forget the armbar, let's just get the top half, and then get knee free, and then go to three-point world.
brendan schaub
Elliot, win or lose is a winner in that fight, because now fans are like, holy shit, this guy's legit.
joe rogan
I 100% agree.
unidentified
Yep.
It's a win-win for him.
You gotta rank him in the top five, Cheeto Fingers.
joe rogan
Don't lose my number.
That's my new thing.
I'm going positive.
unidentified
Yeah, me too.
joe rogan
Don't lose my number.
unidentified
I want to be positive too now.
That's so stupid.
I'm a positive guy, Joe.
Wait a minute.
eddie bravo
What do you got winning?
unidentified
Don't lose my number.
How about here's my number?
What do you got winning?
Here's my number, Tim.
bryan callen
Statements that mean nothing.
joe rogan
Let's stay friends.
unidentified
Don't lose my number.
joe rogan
Let's stay friends.
Don't lose my number.
Let's stay friends.
unidentified
What do you guys got winning?
bryan callen
Call me a lot.
unidentified
Mighty Mouse all day.
joe rogan
Call me anytime.
bryan callen
Yeah, Mighty Mouse, 100%.
joe rogan
Boy, I gotta be honest with you.
I was talking a lot of shit during that fight and barely paying attention to 80% of it.
bryan callen
Controlled Elliot the entire fight.
Mighty Mouse, 100%.
unidentified
He was in trouble in the early rounds, but he definitely controlled the fight.
bryan callen
Controlled him the whole fight.
eddie bravo
That's racist.
joe rogan
Well, if I looked at moments where it looked like he was getting the better of it, I would give him the advantage, but there was definitely a few moments.
It was a competitive fight.
bryan callen
Four to one.
unidentified
Hell yeah.
eddie bravo
No, no, seriously.
Whether he won or lost or whoever, whatever, Was that the toughest challenge for Demetrius Johnson?
joe rogan
So far as champion, 100%.
unidentified
Was it?
eddie bravo
Or the second or three?
joe rogan
Well, John Moraga cracked him.
eddie bravo
Number two?
Number one?
Number three?
Was he number one?
unidentified
True, but then he submitted him.
eddie bravo
Who was number one?
Was this number one?
joe rogan
Yeah.
Number one challenger.
unidentified
Right?
joe rogan
Moraga put him in the worst position.
eddie bravo
Did his rematch.
Rematch on this right away.
That'll be a fucking nice pay-per-view.
bryan callen
It's four rounds to one, though, in this fight.
Ultimately, he won.
unidentified
Yeah, he still won.
bryan callen
He won the first round.
eddie bravo
Whatever.
joe rogan
He wins.
eddie bravo
He wins, but it's just like Rocky won.
unidentified
Rocky won.
Apollo wins.
eddie bravo
But Rocky fucking put on a...
bryan callen
135?
unidentified
Yeah, there's no fights for him.
He needs to go up and fight Cruz.
And they fought before.
bryan callen
Who won that?
joe rogan
You gotta wonder.
At this stage in a guy's career, how many challenges does he have other than Elliott?
unidentified
That'd be zero.
joe rogan
Well, he's got Benavidez now.
Benavidez beat Cejudo.
eddie bravo
I think Cejudo would be different the second time.
Do them again.
Do them again.
joe rogan
But you can't do Cejudo now because Benavidez just won.
So you'd have Benavidez fighting again.
eddie bravo
Cejudo's always going to be the mix because that was a close fight.
unidentified
If you're Mighty Mouse, you're like, no.
eddie bravo
That was no domination with Benavidez and Cejudo.
Cejudo's in the mix.
He's right there at the top.
He's going to improve.
unidentified
It's two losses in a row.
eddie bravo
I know, but I know for a fact, 100% for a fact, Cejudo, he is improving on a daily basis, and that's what he's about.
joe rogan
Let's check this out.
Here it goes.
eddie bravo
Yeah, but it's...
Eddie Bravo.
joe rogan
Eddie Bravo, who won?
eddie bravo
I'm going to say the African-American.
unidentified
49-46.
joe rogan
Brian Callen?
unidentified
Mighty Mouse.
bryan callen
Mighty Mouse, of course.
100%.
joe rogan
I'm non-committal.
Still.
bryan callen
Of course.
Of course he won.
It's not even a question.
unidentified
Yeah, no.
joe rogan
I'm not surprised.
bryan callen
Controlled him the whole fight.
joe rogan
However, I did not want to speak because I know I wasn't paying attention to at least 30% of that fight.
bryan callen
No.
unidentified
He won.
bryan callen
He won, but Elliot...
joe rogan
Interesting.
unidentified
I'm not as logical as you are.
bryan callen
Elliot fought a hell of a fight, and Elliot is as tough as a human being gets.
joe rogan
I want to hear what John Anik asks him.
unidentified
Was it your toughest fight?
eddie bravo
Look how good he's been.
unidentified
Crank this up.
eddie bravo
John, listen.

He's like, he's killing it.
unidentified
Damn, he had him in a fucking dark shit.
joe rogan
Yeah, a dars and a guillotine, right?
bryan callen
What a champ.
eddie bravo
If that would have been Geo, should Geo put that in?
unidentified
What's next?
I hope you ask him what's next.
next.
John Anik is very smooth at this job.
Yeah, he's a beast.
eddie bravo
Yeah, he's a pro.
He's like...
No big deal.
He's gotten better at that shit, too.
unidentified
Listen to the crowd.
They love him.
How can you not?
eddie bravo
I like John Anik, man.
unidentified
Powerful mustache.
joe rogan

Is that Buzz Aldrin?
unidentified
It's his dad, bro.
joe rogan
It's his dad.
eddie bravo
Oh, shit.
Okay.
unidentified
Man, I'm just ready to get back to the next one.
For that first round, how close do you think you were to realize when you got to the flyweight title?
Man, I know I've been there with anybody.
I can compete.
Even this fight, even though I was down when the time ran out.
joe rogan
Jesus Christ.
unidentified
Relax.
joe rogan
He just went if it's a fight to the death.
eddie bravo
Look at him.
He's ready to go.
He's not even tired.
He can go another five rounds.
joe rogan
Guys, I think he's serious.
unidentified
He's 100% serious.
I was on board until you said that.
joe rogan
That's a very humble way of approaching it.
Yeah, John Anik does a great fucking job, man.
eddie bravo
The play-by-play guys, John, always would do, overall, would crush.
Can you remember if there was a competition, who's going to do post-fight interviews?
Play-by-play guys or color guys?
The play-by-play guys would crush!
The color guys, when it comes to thinking on your goddamn feet, play-by-play guys, you need those guys.
brendan schaub
Because the post-fight interviews, it got all fucked up because of you.
eddie bravo
Because you were so good at, you were the color guy, and you could do the play-by-play shit.
You were just fucking slaying dragons.
Other promoters thought that you get the color guy to go into the cage and do the post-fight interviews.
brendan schaub
And they all are terrible because that's the hardest thing to do, the post-fight interviews.
eddie bravo
You've got 30 seconds to come up with a question that's going to be on TV and it's got to be the best question ever.
The play-by-play guy is always going to crush the color guy.
Those dudes are professional broadcasters, traffic cops.
Boom!
And just lay it down.
You know what I mean?
My guy for EBI, TJ DeSantis, holy shit.
I was a guest commentator and he was a play-by-play guy.
I looked over at TJ and I'm like, you want to fucking work for EBI? Holy shit.
He was like Mike Goldberg.
TJ DeSantis?

TJ's a beast.
