I can't wait for Inganu, uh, Rosenstrike. I can't wait. My goodness! Can't wait for that fight. When is that scheduled for? What's the date? I want to say it's April. Tickets just went on sale. March 28th. March 28th. March 28th. Oh my goodness, that's a terrifying fight. Rosenstrike, what he did to Alistair Overham's face with that fucking leaping right hook. Yeah. When he split his fucking mouth open. That guy is a fucking tank. And what was more impressive than anything to me in that fight was not that he knocked him out with the last 10 seconds to go, but that he absorbed all the shots that Alistair hit him with. And he kept pressing forward, almost like he was invulnerable to him. I never saw anybody do that to Alistair. He was losing that fight though. I think Alistair was winning that fight. Oh yes. Alistair was winning that fight, for sure. Rosenstrike is a fucking tank, man. He's a tank and he's a legit 265. Right? A natural 265 as is Inganu. So I think this is the first time Inganu has ever fought a guy who is a real world-class kickboxer who is also his size naturally and is also a vicious knockout puncher. I still think Inganu hits harder. I still think Inganu is faster. But if I was in Rosenstrike's corner, what I would be concentrating on is leg kicks in particular because Juni Dos Santos, even though Inganu starched him in the first round, Inganu starches almost everybody. Juni was able to get off a lot of leg kicks early in the round and was able to at least affect him in some way. I was like, oh, okay, this could be an issue of a real good kickboxer. Now we didn't see Rosenstrike use that sort of strategy against Alistair. He was really looking to put hands on Alistair. He threw some kicks, but really I think if he adjusts within Inganu and tries to move away from the big shots and chop the legs, he's a better kickboxer. He's got real experience with Muay Thai, but he's also a ruthless knockout striker and he has a crazy chin. Rosenstrike has a crazy chin, man. Didn't you feel bad though for over him at the end of that? The fact it was almost like he kind of just jumped up and walked off like it was a walk-off home run and the ref was like, all right. No, dude, his face was hanging off. So you think they should have stopped it? Yes. But went like all the way up to his nose. If Rosenstrike punched him more, it would have probably fallen off and then they would have had to stitch up, pick a patch off the canvas and wash it off and glue it back to his face. Glue it back to his face. Dude, he was done. Just find that KO. Find Rosenstrike, KOs, Alistair over him. The UFC does a thing that I really wish they wouldn't do and I don't understand the thought process behind it. This thing is they don't show finishes online. You can't see the finishes. Like you'll see a guy pulling off of the guy. Like when they stop the fight, he walks away like this, but they don't show the actual finish. What do you think that is? Poor thinking. I just, I don't, show it. It's exciting. People want to see it. They'll make more people watch it. Is that to get you to fight past your face? Watch this. Boom. Yeah. I mean, look. You can see it flop up. But watch him go down. Look at that. See that? Stop the fight. Is that it? I wanted it to play out more because you could see how he's basically helpless. I wonder if they do that to get people to go to fight pass. Like maybe if they, if we show you part of it, it's like an automatic promotion for fight pass. I get this to thank you. I can't imagine that's true. I think fight pass is awesome. They should just go to it if you're a fan. Yeah. I mean, it's, if I pass is great and it's not just for fight pass, it's got, you know, Quintet, Eddie Bravo's, combat jujitsu's on that, a bunch of different Muay Thai organizations on that, all the UFC's fight passes the shit. Okay. Here it is. Look. There he's a little bit, he's wobbly there, but by then would not have been boom. How much time was left when that happened? Boom. See, he walked away. He walked away. If he had jumped on him and they stopped it, I would get it. But you could see he, Dan touched him. Dan touched him. Watch Dan touch, uh, uh, Rosa's face. He touches him there. Yeah. He walked away and then he waved it off after Alistair walk. Yeah, you're right. No, you know, it's a good point. It's a real good point. I mean, it's still, maybe it's the, the cut was so nasty. It was so nasty, but interesting mere seconds from the final. That's why it made me feel bad for over it. Cause if he went down to hit him and he stopped it, I'll be like, he had to stop it. Right. But him walking away might've fucked him out. So that one more time, one more time, see that one more time. Watch this. He's moving away hands down and gets caught. Boom. Gets dropped. Yeah. You're right. Got right back up. No, actually it's good point. Okay. Now I changed my mind. I changed my mind. Yeah. When I saw it, I was just so stunned that he caught him in the last couple of seconds. I know, but it really does prove that, but it's like, you have to watch the fight until the end. It was an exciting way for a fight. Yeah. I mean, it was like a Rodriguez, a Korean zombie. It's like, yeah, but the fight ends like that. How do you ever watch a fight for, you know, you can't not watch till the end. That elbow was insane. The way he threw that, like a look away elbow and the Korean zombie just flat lines. You're like, holy shit. It wasn't Rodriguez losing that fight too. Yes. I remember. Yeah, he was. Yes. And then the Korean zombie just knocked out Frankie Edgar. He's an animal. Yeah, he is. Korean zombies, a tough motherfucker. He had to take two years off to serve the South Korean army. Yeah, military. Yeah. Military makes you, it's mandatory. It's like Israel. You have to do mandatory military time. 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.
