What did you think about Canelo fighting Sergey Kovalev? How crazy was that? Dude. He flatlined Sergey Kovalev at 175 pounds. How good is Canelo? He's amazing. To me, he's pound for pound number one. He looks at his resume, everyone goes, ooh, Bud, who I love, Bud Crawford shot to Bud, Bud and Earl Spence. Everyone goes, that's pound for pound number one or Lomachenko. Lomachenko. Dude, look at who Canelo has beat, man, in different divisions. You're talking about fucking marquee guys and he's stopping them, man. The triple G fights, obviously there's some controversy there, but the triple G fights are real controversial. The first one was very controversial. The second one was. Second one not so much. What's up? They delayed his fight for the end of the UFC fight. Yes, they did. He's mad at that. He said no more because apparently people were tired, man, especially like East Coast folks. Did you watch it? I was, I was. Yeah, I watched it. It was insane. Yeah, they delayed it forever. Four hours. They show him in the back sitting there like, what the fuck? Looking for the end of the UFC fight. And Dazon was just like, how about Dazon? How about Dazon played the UFC in the arena? Look at this. Laugh my off. Who wrote that? Who wrote that tweet? Oh, impersonator Ryan. What does it say? Let me shout them out. It says it's a true defense. Imperator Ryan, the true defense on Twitter. It says L LMAO, Canelo and Kovalev are napping because they got a weight on the UFC. It's ridiculous. Like show a little pride to zone. Dana loved it. He loved it. He was so happy. As a UFC guy, I was also like, yeah, bitch. Like what? This is who's king. You got, can you, can you imagine Dana bowing down to the going, listen, Floyd's fighting. We're not gonna, we're gonna wait for the main. No, the UFC doesn't give a fuck what you got going on. That was Nate Diaz versus Moz, but always a special fight too. And the thing about making it for the bad motherfucker belt, almost like everybody was like, yes, why not? Everyone loved it. Why not? You know? Isn't you want to, you and Jay check gonna fight John Wheeling? Isn't she fighting her for the belt? Oh, did they know that if they didn't give her that fight, you want to say she wants to fight for the female bet. BMF bout. Oh damn. She should fight Jessica and Drudge in a rematch. Just to 248. Is it official? Damn. That's a fucking card. March 7th card. So it's not been announced yet. So that's the one they think might be out of Sonya and you all Romero. So Dana said he didn't want that fight though. Determined location. Dana said he didn't. Yeah, Dana said he didn't want that fight because Yoel lost his last couple fights. I thought he said he did want it. No Dana said he personally Dana didn't think that was a good fight for Yoel. But think about what else is there. What's a great fight for Yoel? I think it's I mean for uh, out of Sonya. I think it's a great fight for the division. But who else are you going to do? You look at the division, there's no one else. Well one of the things that Mazzvidal who's friends with Yoel said, I respect the fuck out of out of Sonya because he asked for that beast. He said he asked for him. And that was my point with Andrew Schultz. I'm like, no, you don't understand to build the legend of Izzy him asking for Yoel. Everybody in the game respects that you want to fight that fucking monster. Even Darren Till. Darren Till said anybody but Yoel. He was joking around after the fight. He was joking. I think they're gonna do Darren Till Whitaker, man. That's a great fucking fight. Well, they talked about doing that on the undercard of out of Sonya, Yoel Romero. Yes. Wasn't that? No, it was the undercard of another fight. Fuck. What did he say? He reached out to... Oh, Connor and Cowboy. That's who it was. He wanted to be on the undercard of Connor and Cowboy. Too soon, not happening. I don't know, man. I don't think Whitaker would be ready to go by then after he got knocked out. What's the date on that fight? That's January. January 1. We're in December, dude. Right, but it's six weeks. Darren Till breaks out his red panties, invites Robert Whitaker to UFC 246, Khomein event. Yeah. So that's six weeks. The only thing is Robert Whitaker got starched just a couple of months ago. So you get at least 120 days suspension. Right. Well, I don't know if he actually can make that medically. No. That's what I'm saying. It's not going to happen. It's too soon. Also, I think a fight like that where a guy like out of Sonya just sort of starches you like that, that requires a reset. Take your time, dude. I love Whitaker. Take your time, man. Yeah, I do too. But maybe not. I mean, maybe he knows better than us. I don't know. No. You think so? I don't think so. That's pretty nice. I don't. Dude, take your time. I don't think he does. Take your time. But I would like to see that fight too. So maybe they can make that happen on, you know, that March card would work or maybe, yeah, maybe sometime in the future. There was a great April card as well. Right. April is the UFC in Brooklyn with Tony and Khabib. Maybe it could be on the undercard of that. That'd be great. That's a great fight. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
