Speaker 1 (01:50):
UFC three twenty two just wrapped in. This is my
post fight reaction video, brought to you by Tode Wireless,
the official wireless provider of UFC. There are in your
corner with unlimited five data that will not slow you down,
and you see miles back there is not slowing down.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
He's striking this set. That's what they do.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Immediately after the show ends, they try to get all
of this stuff out of the arena so that then
they can go home. But ultimately we were in the
arena for what proved to be one of the best
fight cards of the entire year. It looked good on paper,
it was even better in reality. But ultimately the night
(02:31):
belonged to the new wel toweight champion Islama Kachev Islama
Kachev took on Jack Dela Madelena. He was instilled as
a massive favorite going into the fight, so many questions
why even I did. Jack Dela Madelena is very very good,
He's very very tough. He has a great team of
guys that prepare him for these opportunities.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Tonight.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
It's unproved why he was such a massive favorite in
this fight. Totally controlling Jack Dela Madelena, winning the fight
fifty to forty five on every single one of the
judges court card. Very early in the fight, Islam started
(03:19):
to land beautiful leg kicks calf kicks that ultimately damaged
Dela Madelena. But it was wrestling. It was the wrestling
and the grappling as it normally is with Makatchev, that
led the dan ultimately allowed for him to capture his
second title. He was confident, he was sure. He looked
(03:40):
big inside the octagon, even against a guy that mostart
was a little bigger, and he looked like a real Walter.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Away, a guy that really had no.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
He really had no issues with JDM, And honestly, Jack
was prepared.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Jack was very well prepared.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
For Islam's signature submission, I imagine jacking them felt prepared
for the takedowns of Islam, but ultimately when it came
to time to put everything in the action, there weren't
no answers. Malkachev is very confident that he would be
able to get this done. That's exactly what he did. Guys,
(04:24):
I remember Islam coming into the gym as a very
young kid, and you knew he had something. You knew
he was special, you knew that he could be a champion.
But when you watch a guy truly reach the level,
it's gratifying for someone that cares about you or cares
(04:47):
about them. Islam's a great guy and he deserves everything
that he gets because he's.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Earned it with hard work, commitment everything.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
He would leave his family to come to Calvin in
the United States to prepare and he's doing the same
things now as.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Would I imagine the number one bound bound fighter in
the world.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Because now that he's one of the belt in the
second division, I expect him and Ilia to flip again
in this week's rankings, but it was dominant. It was
exactly what we have seen him do on so many occasions.
Inside the octagon. There is no DC you were being biased.
(05:31):
You can't judge Islam harshly for what he did tonight.
It really was a shutout against a guy that was
very well prepared and ready for the challenge, or at
least he thought he was ready for the challengers. But
once again Islam beat him in grappling and in the striking.
Islam Khatchev not only held his own, but I thought
(05:52):
he won the striking in the fight also, So hats
off to the guy. Now he's a double champion, he
is a two division champion. He walked up through me
and he goes, put your eyes down, right, because now
we have a guy that has two belts. So now
I gotta go talk to Islam, but I gotta make
sure I put my eyes down because he now joins
that list of people that have one belt in two divisions,
(06:15):
and he assures himself to be remembered as one of
the greatest of all time.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Another person that's.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Gonna be remembered as one of the greatest of all
time in Valentine's Chefchenko.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
She wiped out Jeohan way Lee. That fight proved why there.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Are weight classes. She looked so much bigger than Jehan
way Lee. She controlled her effortlessly. She really did just
dominate her in a way that I didn't expect. So
many people thought that Waylee was gonna win this fight.
So many people thought that her speed or athleticism could
(06:52):
present some problems to the bullet, but.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
She presented no problems. Man. She just showed that she
on a different level.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
You know, she has now defended the belt eleven times
in her glorious career, our one UFC title fights.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Eleven times.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
She has defended the belt like nine or ten, nine
because she wanted that she wanted again.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
When she beat Alexa nine defens is two wins.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Only John Jones and Anderson Silva, I think have that
many title fight victories.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
She's in rarefied air.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
There is no one like Valentini, Chef Jako, and I
believe it's time that people start to give her the
respect that she deserves. I know she is universally praised
for being a great fighter, but I don't know that
she's just a great fighter. I think she's one of
the greatest of all time, and I believe that now
we should be having the conversation about her and a
man to do this.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I know, I know everybody kind of.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Wants to be quick to everybody wants to be quick
to knock that argument off to the side.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
But I don't think it's just it's like Lebron and
Michael Jordan.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Maybe we older people still think Michael Jordan's great of
all time and the young kids think that Lebron James is.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
But at least now there's a conversation.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Wait, for so long, nobody even wanted to talk about
someone that could potentially be as good as mj.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Now at least there's a conversation.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
I believe it's not for us to start having the
conversation on whether or not that Latina chef Chaenco now
should be considered the greatest female fighter.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Of all time.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Great job to the champ the bullet. I don't know, man,
I don't know who's gonna stop her. Then he thought
this was going to be her hardest challenge.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
She proved that it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Michael Morales beat Sean Brady in the first round. Michael
Moraless so many thought he was struggling with the rustle
of Brady, especially after the way Brady looked against Leon Edwards.
He wiped him out. This kid is now nineteen and er.
This kid has so many finishes. This Walt's wait to vis.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Is so crazy.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
I mean throat lows and just because I've been calling
fight for eight hours, but I want to make sure
I give you guys this. This kid's nineteen to zero
and he just knocked out the number two guy in
the wall in the first round. In most cases, Morales
would be easily identified as the next guy for a
(09:26):
championship opportunity. Unfortunately for him, he's in what may be
the deepest weight classman uf SE.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Now, we have so many guys in.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
This weight that have undefeated records one loss, eighteen nineteen.
It's insane some of the records that these young men
have in this weight class. But it was a beautiful
performance by Michael Morales. Carlos Protest is a madman, but
tonight he knocked out a former champion in Leon Edwards
(09:56):
in the second round.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I mean wrestled in the first round.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
The whole time was talking to him, telling him I
didn't come to GRAPHI, I came to fight. Ultimately, he
got Leon to stand with him a little bit and
he put him to sleep. Now, okay, a younger guy
knocking out an older guy generally isn't that big a deal,
but Leon's one of.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
The best strikers in the world. He's been there for
a long time.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
That was very impressive by Protest, and in most cases
that would have guaranteed him a title fight. Unfortunately he
fights at one seventy where it's just so deep guys.
Next week Ian Gary fights Baba Muhammet. Gary just beat
this guy Protest in April. That's how good this way classes.
But tonight, ultimately Carlos Protest made a statement and he
(10:45):
should be lauded for that. Ben Roandeni knocked out Vaniell
Dariush in sixteen seconds. Sixteen seconds, Ben was Soandeni knocked
him out. When Saden he lost to a notells, so
many were ready to write him off. He has now
won three fights in a row and he just knocked
out that most highly ranked guy he's ever.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Beaten, and he did it in sixteen seconds.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
The changes that he has made are really starting to
pay dividends for him, so he should be proud of
what he did.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Bow Nickel had one of the nastiest head kick knockoffs ever.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
It was exactly what that kid needed after losing his
first fight, so many people were ready to write him off.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
He proved tonight that not only.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Should you not write him off, but he's getting better.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
He said that head kick up beautifully.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
They're doing some great work with Bowl down the American
Top team, and bow does still look like one of
the guys, an American born guy that could potentially be
a world champion. Aaron Blansfield submited Tracy Cortes. I questioned
her early because she wasn't wrestling. Her striking ultimately led
(12:00):
to her wrestling and then getting a submission. So hats
off to Aaron, who now was on the short list
of people could potentially get a title opportunity.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Ethan Ewing b.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Malcolm Wallmaker dude took that final forty eight hours notice.
Watching him do what he did really does show you
how special these fighters are.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
This kid's special man.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
It was amazing to watch hats all Kyle Dawkas and
others knockout victory, our submission victory as he returns to
the UFC by saying er Susa Kayev with a TKO
Eric Eric mcconico in the third round. It was absolutely fantastic, guys.
Before I get to my total warlest fighter of the night.
(12:45):
I want to tell you one last thing about Islami
katchav Unano ties Anderson Silva for the most consecutive victory
in UFC history at sixteen. That's crazy to do what
he has done. There are a lot of big fights
for him. I still believe that the Iliant for fight
is the biggest one that they can make in the UFC.
(13:06):
Guys now with time to my total wireless performance of
the night, and honestly, I'm gonna give that to bow Nickel.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I thought that head kick was insane.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
The way that he set it up, the way that
he landed it, the way that he put him out
was unbelievable. To show that level of striking as a
wrestler tells you that bull Nickel really is jumping to
the next level. So congratulations to bowl Nickel from being
my total wireless fighter of the night and getting my
total wireless performance of tonight guys every year Madison Square
(13:40):
Garden is fantastic. I said to Dana White after the
very start of the main card, this is one of
the best fight nights of my entire life, and he
agreed it was fantastic. We have one more paper duty
in the year in Las Vegas. It has been a
great year for the UFC and I'm so happy to
be a part of it and to be a part
(14:01):
of this organization. It's amazing man, great champions, great fighters.
Everything honestly is the final pay per view of all time.
So make sure you guys tap it in New York

Speaker 2 (14:15):
But I cannot wait to get back to calpur So.

that you guys watch this for granted.
