Did you watch UFC Saturday night? No I did not. Had no time. I was flying all over the place. How dare you. Now I had to go to another show. Not a fight show. An awards show. There's this guy that fought on the undercard. Zabit Magomed Sharipov. Holy shit is this guy. How many times did you rehearse his name? Many. I fucked it up with the Wands. They were saying, just call him Zabit. Just Zabit. And I'm like, no no no, I can get it. Yeah, yeah. He's fucking phenomenal. He's one of Mark Henry's guys. Down in New Jersey. Okay, that's good. I like Mark Henry. From Dagestan. Where there's just something in the water over there. They just create animals. They're trained with bears, right? But this guy is tall and skinny. And he fought Kyle Bockniak. And this kid, Kyle Bockniak, he was shorter, had a hard time getting in on him. And Zabit had more skill in terms of more techniques and more things that he could do. But goddamn, Bockniak is a fucking animal. He is a savage. Because he was there at every second of this fight trying to win. Never gave up. Never quit. And then at the end of the fight, the very end of the fight, in the third and final round, the last minute of the fight, he's pouring it on. And he's got Zabit up against the cage. He's screaming at him. He's got fucking blood coming out of his mouth. He's chasing after him. This is the end of the fight. Was him standing in front? Oh, this is the show on some highlights. Oh, those are all highlights. Yeah. But Zabit, that guy is fucking talented. What is his record? I think he's undefeated. That's good. He might have one loss maybe early in his career. I feel like he's 15 and 0 though, I think. See if you can find his record. Does it say? Oh, this is the end. So the end of the fight, and I'm telling you, Bochnak is getting his ass kicked the whole fight. Look at this, the end. Standing right in front of him, hands down. Fucking teeing off. Holloway. The whole crowd going crazy. And this is my favorite part. It ends, the buzzer goes off, and look. Fucking hugs. Yeah, I love that. And they walk around the ring. And I'm telling you, there was not a person in the fucking Barclays Center that was sitting down. Everybody stood up and went crazy. Me too. I was standing up. The only time during the whole night I stood up and I was clapping. You have to. Oh. You know, if they give it all, there's nothing cooler than that. You know, that's what Holloway, when he made that line, you know he drew the line. Oh yeah. Oh man, and it became a thing now. Yeah, 15 and 1. I love it. How's my memory side? You are so good. Zabit. Look at, try saying that name. Pull that name out. Okay, Zabit Magomede Shabitov. Shatipov. Shatipov. Magomede Shatipov. Magomede Shatipov. Magomede Shatipov. He's a fucking animal man. He's a big Magomede Shatipov. Very, very talented. And Mark Henry was telling me about this kid a long time ago. And he was telling me, he was like, he goes, I got a world champion. He goes, this guy's going to be a world champion. I was like, wow. And Mark Henry tells you that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that's probably going to happen.
