Welcome to TB Sports Cafe is tonight on the show,
we're all here, well most of us, and we go
into the sport of power slap. Basically when someone stands
up and slaps someone in the face. That's what power
slappers as hard as they can. Yeah. Yeah. We also
look at some new sports involving fish, which is stupid.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
I mean, you wouldn't know that by then pretty popular?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Well, I don't know. I don't know because I haven't
seen the shwe yet.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Does what I mean?
Speaker 4 (00:46):
So you wouldn't know about the fish because yeah, yeah, we.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Might look at new sports and they might involve fish.
How about that?
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Well, then that's a bit contrived because you didn't the
fish aspect of it was the back of the and.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I have a piece of footage that you can't wait
to see, you can't wait to unsee. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's at the end of the show. And I apologize.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
Now, what about Jerry Collins.
Speaker 2 (01:21):

We made some money paid off? Explain that well, I
bet on it target to beat Auckland, which was a
bit awkward. But I also been on I.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Read I read this nonsense and you said that this
is at Marks Tips and everyone's going out the guys
and more on on social media, and so I wrote
the first time I've seen this. I haven't been back
to check what you said, but I just wanted to
make sure that.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Do you respond on social media?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Is that first time ever? I was just sitting because
Rick sends all us shipped through and you're just sitting
and you're thinking, ah, there's another one to come through
a sports cave that I meant to share, you know,
or whatever, and then there's one of his Marks bets
for the week, and I was just going, oh, he's retarded.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Next week.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
The way I do is I say these are Marx
bets and that they don't work. Then everyone goes one
lidiot and if they do work, I come on the
show and I claimed quit. Its like, look at that
I got two of the UFC fights right, and also
I don'g a bit nor.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
But overall you only had five percent success.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Well I got three wrong as well.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Yeah, but he got the ones right that we're paying
higher than the ones.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
And so I made some good money. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
When you say good money, what is good money?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
I think I made be one hundred bucks or something
like you made. Yeah, Yeah, it's.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
How much do you want? How much do you start with?
And how much do you.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Yeah, it give us a percentage.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Well, I think i'd bet one hundred bucks and I
think I've made one hundred and.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
Ten okay, ten dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, I made ten dollars.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
It's a ten percent return. Yeah, in a very short
period of time.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah. And and and the UFC is what you know,
my expertise in UFC is what came through.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Well.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
As he was unlucky yesterday, wasn't he because he was
so ahead, was he? Yeah, yeah, he was. He was
in complete control. And then he sort of caught when
he looked like he went quite hard and round.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I think it was round four three?
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Was it?
Speaker 7 (03:41):
Was it?
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Third round that it finished?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Fourth round finished fourth round.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Yeah, he went quite hard for three minutes, so I did. Yeah,
but it's fourth for the first few minutes, and he
looked like he got a bit tired and he just
caught one and then he got choked out. But he
was in control.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Don't forgive me no to get one thing wrong in that. Yeah,
and that and that sort of sport. It's all over.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
But he's so he's so beautiful to watch, you know,
like his movements are very great, full and as opposed
to the other guy was clunky. But he's just he's
a bit like Ali in terms of its just the
way he moves and the great style elegance. I hope
he doesn't I hope he doesn't quit. No, he's still
still the best.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
So I was looking through old sports capes because that's
what I do during the week. That's that's what I do.
So I look at myself when I was twenty years
younger and stuff. Yeah, is that not normal?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Not really? No?
Speaker 5 (04:31):
No, okay.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Es or what do you mean? What sort of.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
VHS is it?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah? Yeah, I'll get the VHS player out and.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
He's got all NEDSLF from those automatic cameras stuck on
the tape. I was an eventual book, yeah years ago.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
No, No, and I I found this. One of our
favorite guests was All Black legend Jerry Collins. Can I
introduce a fist guess for the evening?
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Is it wrong to have a couple of beers before the.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
So you had a bit of a risk the last week.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
Yeah, it was suspended for the last few weeks. Like
I wasn't an accident. Was named Allison and yeah, like
when you play sport, you don't intentionally got there to
hurt someone.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
But I mean.
Speaker 8 (05:22):
Double standards, like if he were South African and Australian
and it wouldn't have been like any you would in
the back on the back of one of those and
I suppose you know.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
If you were standing up straight, you.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Would have gone on the che.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Knocked about you're lawyer.
Speaker 8 (05:42):
When I was young, the old man, because I don't
I don't really like running on the road because people
see you're running on the road at us like where
hood and did old Mike tssons.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Fing, you know, running late at night.
Speaker 8 (05:51):
But when they come to watch me and I walked
around the field and say he hit this mini, you know,
it was like run down, he's taking the work. So
I would run and he'd followed me and then like
he clicked onto it that was running through serves.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
So he said that I had to keep up with
the money.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You will probably have to put the lift the Hood
a bit second. See where you're going.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Oh, my daddy can't fit in the mon he's like
six foot four.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
Last take the roof off.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
That was a family car.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Apologize you were so good, Ronnie.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Yeah when you when you said that you had a
few beers. Did you have a few beers with Jerry
before the show?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Did you?
Speaker 7 (06:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Potentially he was, he was.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
He was actually holding it together a damn so bitter
than I was.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Yeah, what's that?
Speaker 5 (06:45):
That's what happens when you're three times a size. Yeah,
that's why you've always been a relevantly slower processing. Slower processing. Yeah,
it's like a sponge that just sucks up moreorus. Yeah,
Sea cow So he uses the air of a ballist.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's not funny character.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Look, I'm just trying to bring myself into the show.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
It's we've got a special guest. We're going up international
this week. Yeah, we're going to Virginia. We've got Big Delvin,
who is a power slap. So, can you explain what
power slappers? Make it?
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Big Delvin or Big del Boy Delvin Delvina? What power slappers?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I love it because it was a power slapper, power slapper,
power slap like Lana, you don't know what power slapper
is there?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Well, I'm assuming it's something to do with slapping and
using a bit of power.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Well, it's like arm wrestling, you know, but it's it's
sort of structured. But they stand at the at the
podium and and they've got like a free.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Free cuff, right, So it's not a woman with way
way with morals. It's not a power slapper.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Jes that's I mean, Dana White's behind us, but that's
taking it to the next level. Yeah, well, where is
the guest?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
I just wanted to get our stupid questions out of
the way before.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
The guests that happens and has it? Has it been
modified from the game that we played at school, which
was the Handslippy?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah, no, I had nothing to do with that.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Nothing to do with that.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Now this is like the you know, the Errant Curta
in the seventies.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Parental parental can't do it as a parent anymore. So
we evolved into.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
It was you know, I'll give you a clip friend
of the Yeah, I mean, I would love to have
a dollar for every wooden spoon that was broken over
my ass while my mother.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Yeah, wooden spoons were quite good.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
You can't do that anymore.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
He get a strap from old man.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
You know, when I think about it now, the brother
and I were pretty you know, we deserved it, but
he didn't really do.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
It with any malice.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
You know.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
He would take come to the room and be lying
in being halftime and he would strap past. I remember
a couple of times he said, boys, come on and
bring the strap and we went, what, you know, what's
just for? He actually said this is for all the
stuff I haven't caught you for this week, saying to him,
(09:07):
that's not fair. It's not fair, he assumed, But I said,
that's not Life's not fair. Thats not fair.
Speaker 5 (09:19):
I mean the human Cannibal had a party trick where
he would take party tricks as he had take his
belt off and he'd say, right, you know, you've got
to bend over and I'm going to give you you know,
you give me three on the back back of the ass.
And if I show no pain, ah, you know, I
don't have to have a be If I show pain,
(09:40):
I'll drink a beer. And so you'd get this and
you'd smack him on the ass as hard as you
could and he'd show no pain. And then he'd get
you and it'd be you'd be off up the road
and it turned it around and wat you with a buckle.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
So obviously before we talked to the Delvin, you know
his his fighting name is country Hoodlum Country. Yeah. I
mean I think having a fighting name, what would you.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Well, what was it?
Speaker 4 (10:07):
You mean I seem to recall it was the well
I had to really I kind of evolved from the
country carstrader gray showed, and then I sort of got
more more more, you know, became the the the country circumciser,
you know, and so it wasn't quite as full on
as the country cars rader.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
So and and was that part of your fighting technique
or was that just an that was all anothering?
Speaker 4 (10:32):
You know, if if you're gonna you know, it's like
eye gouging anything. You know, when a fight, you've got
to you've got to do that kind of stuff.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
You know, how how many you know, complete source of
circumcisions did you have to give before you got the name?
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well it's time to gauge because some of those people circumcised.
Did you just do one?
Speaker 7 (10:58):
What did you do around behind it?
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Well, that's what you see, you know, a lot of
them happened before the match as well. Say that's really hard, but.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
Yeah, a lot of them happened at birth.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You know some of them had nothing to do with you.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Yeah exactly. You know I take credit for them.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, and what about you, Mark? What would you fighting?
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I'm not going anywhere after that.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
In a bad place, street name, fist animal something.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
My fight name was Rick, read the ball, just Rick.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Yeah, you'd be like ten Ton Bundy. Remember ten Tons Bundy,
Tin Tun Bundy was a wrestler and he was.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
It wasn't lied, Yeah, that boxer, that's his name.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah, yeah, you'd just be.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
But a foot.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
You could be your favorite food, like pasta joe or something.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Yeah. But I think calling a fighter spaghetti is really
sort of the spreading man, the spaghetti man.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
No, yeah, it's.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
Just grew a little.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
No, I'm going to leave you start cleaning names. I'll
be tarnished for the rest of my life. What happened
last time we fell down?
Speaker 3 (12:31):
That rabbit?
Speaker 5 (12:32):
Leave it to that side of the table. You've done
a great job.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, just go straight to slapping.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
How is it hey?
Speaker 7 (12:37):
Man?
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Him?
Speaker 7 (12:40):
Very well?
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Mate? What do we call you? We call you Delvon
or big Dealvan or.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
I got a lot of nicknames. Is whatever you want
to call me? What's everyone works for you. You won't
call me that.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
You the name of your Christian But I'm presuming country
hoodlum is a stage name performance. Where do you? Where
do you aim the shot? Somebody standing there, They've got
to be still. They can't turn their head towards the
slack where you aiming going behind the ear, on the
on the jaw.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
They call it like a slap zone. It's like, you
know a little bit under the nose and above the
jaw line. Like if you get under the jaw line,
they'll call that clubbing. So it's like like right there,
like if you get too much, if you get too
much of the ear, they'll call that club in too.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Speaking of clubbing, that there are you know, pumping devices
that can you know, grow things. Is there a hand
pump that can make you pump your hand and make
it bigger so it's carrying more blood.
Speaker 7 (13:38):
I see people they use this little little wrench thing
they squeeze, you know, make their hands tighter. But I
don't know if it'll make your hand bigger.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
But well, what about what about sort of milking the
arm from from the top towards the you know, let's
call it the.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
Hand, like the forearm.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Yeah, just milking, milking more blood in there or you know,
I mean, I guess.
Speaker 7 (13:57):
I mean, I don't know whatever it is. I'm sure
people do certain you know, do certain different things whatever,
whatever works they technique and stuff.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
But to be it has to be an open hand
and below the ear because if you get the air
you could make someone death.
Speaker 7 (14:12):
Yeah, you don't want to get it to two back
there because they'll call that club and two gotta be
like right here, you know it strike zone.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
I'll tell you what, because now you're looking like confused.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
No, I'm just I am new to the sports. So
if you could break it down a little bit for me.
Isn't there is there weight restrictions or height restrictions.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
Yeah, they have weight they have weight classes.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
What's your what's your white class?
Speaker 7 (14:38):
So I started out at heavyweight, but when I went
out there, I was I was small. So heavyweights like
two o six to like two sixty five, I believe.
And uh, the guys out the first two guys that
went up against was like two fifties two forties, and
I was like two fourteen, so I moved down to
light heavyweight, which is like one eight five to two
o five.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I've got some footage actually that will play, which is
this is what power slappers.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
H oh my gosh. So it's all about the strength
in your neck.
Speaker 5 (15:25):
Yeah, but there's also the beard, like a good beard's
legal obviously, you know you Yeah, you.
Speaker 7 (15:32):
Would think it would be a cheek coot, wouldn't It
is that nah that you can wear You can wear
a beard some people. A lot of people be missing.
They misjudge the chin and hit the beard. They'd be low.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
Ah.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
Right, are you're allowed to feel allowed to you know,
I've always thought this is what Andrea Berchelli would do.
But you're allowed to feel the opponent's face to work
out where the drawlne is.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
If you're blind, you probably good.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
They call it. They call it a measure. So you
do get to go up there and you know, have
a measure first, but you know you can go on one,
two or three.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
If you if you're if you're doing it doing a
measure and you're sort of pretending to enjoy it, you
might be able to play few mind games with them,
you know, just start striking their face.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
And yeah, I mean you still you have to tell
the referee in your opponent which hand you know, what
hand you're striking, and on which which number you.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Can't smart hands?
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Hey, look, I think that boxing some famous boxes you
to say that getting hit by George Foreman is like
a Matt truck, you know, real powerful. Getting it by
Joe Fraser was like a Ferrari fast but both hurt.
What sort of technique works best for you? I mean,
is it about trying to put as much power behind
it or as fast as you can?
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Good question?
Speaker 7 (16:43):
I fight, you know because a lot of people had
to go on one. But I feel like the more
you go on two or three, you know you got
the good perfect measurement, and you know you get you
can wind up better.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
But we're talking about it, you know, I fight.
Speaker 7 (16:54):
It's all in it's all in the wine.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
In the follow up, we're talking about the you know
you want to slap, you want.
Speaker 7 (16:59):
To slap through the face. You want to just stop,
you want to slap through the face.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Yeah, So where are you aiming? You're aiming like an
e an e passed your head.
Speaker 7 (17:07):
Yeah, you know when you when the wind up there,
you're going from the ground up like the ground like
you know, you're trying you're trying to lift them to
the sky type.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
But that's just we're talking about slapping. What about what
about the receiving of it, because you have to receive
them as well. I mean, how do you oh yeah,
what's the strategy there? I mean all right, I.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
Mean I just if they if they go on three.
I just watched the wine up the whole time, and
then when he's on his last call and he's coming,
just I just closed my eyes, bite down and brace
the impact.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Did you get a.
Speaker 7 (17:42):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah you got and you got like two
little cotton in your ear or whatever. But that's it.
That's all you all you got and.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
You can't move your head toward it. Any movement of
the head would.
Speaker 7 (17:52):
Be they'll call that flinting and your pony and get
an extra shot.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
For training? Do you have like crashed his dummies or
who do you? How do you train for this?
Speaker 7 (18:03):
They'll use like a like a pool noodle, like a
pool new little something. That's what they That's how they
was working on the measurement and stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
How did you get discovered. How did they How did
you end up in pal slip?
Speaker 7 (18:13):
I would say street beats because I did a lot
of you know, the backyard fighting or not. And a
guy had reached out to me on Instagram. I thought
it was a scam, to be honest with you, When
he reached out to me, I thought it was a scam.
He was like, I'm so and so producer of this,
producer of the tough Man whatever. And I you know,
I clicked on his Instagram. He only had like one
hundred something followers. I said, this can't be true. This
can't be and then they set up a zoom call
(18:37):
like two weeks after that or a zoom call and
then reached out two weeks after that and flew me
to Vegas.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
And the prize poll. What sort of money do you
win for? If you do you win?
Speaker 7 (18:47):
Yeah, it's different. So you do get you get paid
for you know, of course, you know, showing up and
then you get paid for winning. And that's just on
like the pre tape shows, and then when you get
to the live events you get even more. And you know,
if you get like the main event and you get
if you're like a chance, you probably get, you get
more than that, and if you get a knockout and
(19:09):
they like your performance, they'll give you a performance bonus too.
I ain't got one of those yet, but you've actually
opened My next one, I get one.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Looking at your fights, you've you've knocked someone out and
you've been knocked out.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (19:21):
So my first one I won by a knockout, which
was when I was in the house when I did
the The Real the Reality TV series. And then the
second one I lost to the decision. We went all
three rounds and uh, I think they gave it to
him because I stumbled the last. His last lat made
me stumble a little bit. And then my third one
I got, I got knocked out. That was in February.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
There are there slaps where you just go, oh, that
was so good, and you know you have timed a
well like we were like a baseball shot. When you're
whack one, you know it's out of the park.
Speaker 7 (19:51):
You just I'll say, I say my first masters it
felt good. But my second and my third one, I
slapped them and they just stood there look at me.
I was like, oh, snap, snap.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
And what do you do you like put your hand
in pittrol to make it hot or do you want
to make it really soft and supple the moisturize.
Speaker 7 (20:07):
I mean you put that little powder on there. And
you know some people try to do like wid fingers.
Some people like do their hands cut or whatever. But
as long as you don't as long as you don't
cough it, you good. Just as long as you getting
that strike zone.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
So they did the reality TV show. Were you part
of that as well?
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Yeah? They just they just released season three. I was
on season two and what what?
Speaker 6 (20:30):
What?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
What happened in the reality show? What was the whole
idea of that?
Speaker 7 (20:35):
It's called roll to the title? Like who will make
it on? Because like if you lost in the first
you got sent home, and then the second one, if
you lost, you're supposed to get sent home. But they
signed everybody and everybody made it to the next round,
so it's all try to get to the title.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
What was that experience? Like, what was that experience like
being on the reality show?
Speaker 7 (20:55):
So it was my first time on the plane, so
that was that was fun. It was my first time
on the West coast, first time on the plane, and
you would think it would be more chaos than it was,
but it was pretty calm, and you can't speak for
season three, that's a little bit more chaotic. But season
and season two was chill.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
What are you prefair that that that's the slapping or
the street fighting? What you used to do? What do
you still?
Speaker 7 (21:18):
Slapping? Is where the money is at. But the street
fighting is a lot a lot easier. You know, you
can defend yourself, you know, fight back or whatever.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
But you know, actually, I've got some footage, We've got
some footage from YouTube, yeah, of you fighting, So let's
just have a look at that just to get.
Speaker 7 (21:37):
Country what's popping is the whole lot boom aka country
hugging fighting out corporate Virginia. Let's get this work.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Help and.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
You knowing chilling yours. We gotta one of the two
streets in the yards.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
He takes me back.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
If you get a you know, typically I'm presuming most
of the fighters are right handed, and you'd probably be
well versed in receiving one from the left hand, so
your face, But what if you get a left hand
or a cat hander. Have you ever had one of those?
Speaker 7 (22:39):
Yeah, my second match, the one that went to the
decision was the left hander.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
Is it different?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Major?
Speaker 7 (22:46):
You didn't expect it. He like, uh right, you know,
uh left on thrill all dang. You know the whole
time I would I didn't even think about getting smacked
with the left. I mean it's school, so I'm just
smacked with the left hand.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
Right.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
So you know what, Now, what about the fights that
we've just seen? I mean, what's that underground YouTube sort
of I think saying I didn't know about that. That
looks like a lot of fun.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
Yeah, yeah, So that's that street beast that started in
two thousand and eight, And it's basically, you know, if
you had a problems with somebody in the streets, instead
of taking it to the streets with gun violence or
you know, weapons whatever, just knuckle up and then drop it.
After that, it was mainly the soft bees, and then
you know, people got attracted to it and turned into
a sport. So now they hold an event like once
(23:30):
once a once a month. So what's a big, big event?
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Now?
Speaker 5 (23:35):
The limit did you have with the with the guys
that you fought?
Speaker 7 (23:37):
What was I fought all the ten guys? I thought.
I didn't have no beats with nobody. I just did
it for fun. So mainly I signed up just to
do it for fun, so and.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
People are beating on you. So it's a little bit
like dog fights.
Speaker 7 (23:52):
Yeah, so all that was fun. I didn't have no
problems with nobody.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
So have you always enjoyed fighting or yeah?
Speaker 7 (23:57):
So I'll say eighth grade, my eighth grade year, ninth
grade years when I started fighting, and then when I
got older, I found out the street beats and I
got involved with that.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (24:08):
And so who's the one guy in the world that
you would at least like to take the slap from?
Is there somebody who's just unbeatable?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
I mean I ain't.
Speaker 7 (24:16):
I wouldn't. I wouldn't turn it down. Of course, nobody
wants to get slapped, but if I ever get the opportunity, definitely,
definitely not gonna say no to it.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
What about someone like Mike Tyson? How would he go
as a slapper?
Speaker 7 (24:27):
I mean yeah, I mean that's a good name. You know,
it's a it's a slap, So you're likely to either
either you're gonna eat it or either you go to sleep.
That's the only two options. You can't you can't, you
can't flinch.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
You thought the guy who bites people's ears off isn't
going to give you an open hand and slap. He's
just going to club you.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Yeah, probably will if you get. If you get two clubs,
you know you you lose automatically.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Mate, I reckon that. You just have a competition. Anybody
can take Mike Tyson's best punch. If you can do that,
then I'll give you a million.
Speaker 7 (24:56):
Box you know. Yeah, you know, if the money. If
the money's right, they say, if the money right, they say,
or will be.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Able to let you go.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
If I see you in the street over in the US,
I'll probably cross the road because I'm a little bit scared. Hey, yeah,
I'll tell you who if you looked at the group
of us, who would you say is the best that's slapping?
Speaker 7 (25:23):
Hey? You you could imagine because the dude that knocks
me out, I said, he's like an older, older guy,
you know probably you know, he's a mechanic work on farm.
So I feel like, I don't know, people got the
old man's strength some time.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yeah, I've got the old man's strength, but.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
He's got the old man's guts as well.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
But besides the old man's strength or whatever it.
Speaker 5 (25:45):
Was, and the old man gray pubes, Yeah, it might
be a sport or something.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Yeah, it could be my sport or or it could
be lying the sport because she once slept mark and
it was probably the highlight of the show. Let's just
have a look.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Yeah, hey, girls, girls get involved into it too.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
Take us.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
I heard, I heard, it's been a long time coming.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
We all wanted to do that.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Yeah, a half many many things.
Speaker 7 (26:18):
It's just imagine getting the opportunity to slap somebody, would
y'all turn it down?
Speaker 2 (26:23):
No, well like these three of us that we're all
like the slap one person. Yeah, you just don't get
slapped back, that's.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
All I said. Did they get a chance to slap
back right?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
No, No, we just make sure the first one is
a good one.
Speaker 7 (26:37):
But yeah, you would think so. In my last too,
I had I had the coin toss one and it
didn't do me no good.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
I reckon.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
It'd be great to have like a barrel of fish
that you can choose from, like dead fish, like smacking
people with a fish with a dead fish.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
That'd be great.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
Yeah, big, it's massively anything, but accuracy is not so good.
Or you can get like a flat fish that gives
you the full flounder takes the whole face it's gonna
slap the whole thing and pop the drum.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
Mate.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
I'll let you go Bigdalvin. I've got we've got some
slapping to do here. Actually, blue cod.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
There's a start of someone.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Yeah, you've started something. All the best for your next
your next bite about and.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
And half okay, yeah, shut.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Up, Mark.
Speaker 7 (27:23):
I appreciate it. Thank you for having me, thank you,
thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Good luck, mate, take it easy.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
Appreciate you all joking and joking sor I think Mark's
onto something. We talk about new sports all the time
on the show, don't we The fish slap where you
get to choose a fish from the new sports, new
sport brilliant.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
I mean you just you have to scale it or
maybe you know, you can leave the skirt maybe the
un you know, the unqualified around.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Instead of having waits for the for the fighters, waits
for the fish.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Yeah yeah, but you can pick whichever you like. I mean,
you could get a flounder, which you know you're going
to get a lot of coverage with but it's easy
to swing. Or you could get like a blue cod,
which is a big, heavy thing, but the chances if.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Someone showed up with hold it. Someone showed up with
like a giant tuna.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
Well you could, but you've still got to grab it
by the tail and you've got to swing with your arm.
You got to use a tail, no gripping glove, and
you just got a calf for the fish.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
I'm not sure if it's a North Island thing or
just a girl guy thing, but the idea of slapping
someone of the fish doesn't.
Speaker 5 (28:34):
The other thing.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
What is the perfect segway is that we used to
run competitions on our show on Sports Cafe Inventor Sport
and it really brought out the creativity of our our viewers.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
That's genius.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
We should go back to that. Have a look. Here's
some of the entries. So this is called biscuits. So
you put a coin in your bottom and you spin
around and then you eject the coin to see how.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Far it can go.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
It be it went up the other way too far.
Well that's an awkward throw. And it went up the
other way. You had to throw the hammer backwards something. Yeah,
but they're not Yeah, and obviously the measurements very important.
It looks like it's in a rugby club, which is
not surprising. So that's biscuss. This is just simple mud slidely.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
You know, this is simple anymore health and safety.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
This should be an Olympic sport. This is really simple. Now,
this is dropping a rugby ball outside of a high
building and catching it. Now, what made this particular one
more interesting is this is the same building that the
police were based. So you're dropping the ball and then
catching it and then running away from the police. That
was one sport and then the final one. This is
(29:48):
an absolute New Zealand classic. This is big test cale lacrosse,
I think so obviously used with a pig or a
sheep test of it might be it might be a
sheep test caull and then using shovels and spades to
project the testicle around the farm mate.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
The one thing that this does prove is how bloody
old we are because this this is footage from a
long long time ago.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Yeah well, actually the thing is that that was off
of BHS. That's how long ago was.
Speaker 5 (30:21):
Yeah well, I reckon the sport. That would be bloody brilliant.
I'd love to see it happen and it would be
the person who can get the biggest fish onto a
rugby field.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
During a game.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Why, what's the idea of that, Well, it would be bloody.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
We're going to see people throwing like a little fish on,
but people actually having to run run it like a
king on. You know, if you can get the fish
on the field, the biggest, they've got to take it on.
They've got to take it on, they've got to run
it on the field, the biggest fish.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Just drop it go on, No, don't do not do that.
Speaker 5 (30:50):
Well, it's so boring at the moment. You've got so
many stoppages and play for the referee blowing things up.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
Just run a shark out or someone gets injured and
they've got to take like the golf buggy cart out.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
You know, you sort of got it.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
And big what's your fascination this week with fish?
Speaker 5 (31:09):
Well, I just think they're an amusing, amusing thing to
get on the rugby field.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
So just trying to think of any sports and then
making a twist on them by adding a fish to
the sport.
Speaker 5 (31:19):
Well, I mean streaking. You know people now are doing
it with their clothes on, so it's all a look
at me, look at me. Well, okay, happy to look
at you, but bring a fish on.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
Yeah, put some Jeopardy in there. Yeah, yeah, and be good.
Use to those you know, those posts you haven't fish
and chip shops, you know what I mean. So you
can use that as you you know, and go you
know what I'm going to go with the.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
You know, I just love to see somebody in the
middle of a rugby game sprinting out, you know. And
if you're not, know, that's cold. But if you do it, no,
you even better with like a great big kingfish onto
the field and just dropping the kingfish, because then you
know who does security go for? You know, where's the
camera go.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
I'm instantly distancing myself from that comment. Why because I
do not want to get involved and that someone does
knock yourself out. I have no responsibility for it.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
I've got every responsibility.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
You've done this before.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
You lead by example. I feel like if you did
it first and you became the role model or the ambassador.
Speaker 5 (32:16):
For this, okay, the perfect the freshmonger, a freshmonger.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Then you could see the president people have really understand.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
Certainly the all that game has just been.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
So what happened last time was when Mark and courage
into Streak and the offered one thousand dollars per security
guard they beat. I had to pay, well, that's going
to pay.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I had to pay well, all right, now, I'll say
five grand for the biggest first run onto an internet point.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
It's still alive. There's a bonus.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
It's sort of like, you know, if it's the best
knock out of the handslap, there's a bonus paid. Okay,
biggest fish onto an international rugby games. Do not do
the brand.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
No one do that ever, because and segways, really you're
already setting all the bits up on the show. I
had to bring something that, something great this week. And
for me, something great was the reaction of the New
York radio guys. So the Mets a baseball team in
New York, and to try and sort of come up
(33:16):
with some different gimmicks, they got Grimace, you know, from McDonald's.
So they got Grimace to throw out the first pitch,
and and after Grimmace throughout the best the first pitch,
all the Mets kept winning.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
Grimace is the purple guy out of McDonald McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
You don't know Grimaces. So there's Grimace. That's what looks like.
So they got Grimace.
Speaker 5 (33:36):
It's when he's smiling.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
But what happened to the clown Ronald McDonald.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
That's from there. That's the pen. They're not friends. Look
at the creep there, the redhead one.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
So then so then that so they did Grimace?
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Anything to do with the stick?
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Hey, shut up, everyone, I don't say anything.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
I'm trying to link to my bit of video.
Speaker 3 (33:57):
Get them.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
So they did Grimace, and.
Speaker 5 (33:59):
Then they tried to turn into the game.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
That was a problem.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
After Grimace, they got they got the Hot Tour Girl.
Do you know the whole to a girl?
Speaker 5 (34:07):
Say, it's the same theme, what you're a pervot?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
No, they got the Hot Tour Girl. And this was
the reaction the.
Speaker 9 (34:15):
Yankees have ever Judge and one Soto breaking records, Ruth
man O gerrig and the Mets have Grimace and now
Hot Tour. Come on, Brake can't take it. I cannot
take it anymore ridiculous. And then you want to my
fans get so ticked off and upset. It's embarrassing. It's
(34:38):
the biggest deal in the world. No, absolutely doesn't mean
anything on the field.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
No, but that's the problem.
Speaker 9 (34:43):
The product on the field isn't good enough, and you're
coming up with these chilly gimmicks that are laughing stock.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
It's a joke hot tour.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
I think I just want to talk about this direct
the show.
Speaker 5 (34:55):
So that's exactly my point with the fish on the field.
I didn't even know you're going to show.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
That's the point.
Speaker 5 (35:01):
Yeah, the show that will the rugby saying.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
It's a gimmick, bringing fish heaven the field.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Saying, don't bring in gimmicks, because just make the sport.
Speaker 7 (35:10):
Mate.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
I think everyone's going to realize that that guy is
just a bit tightly wound. You know, he's just got
to relax a bit.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I'm relating to him just at the moment.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
Yeah, well you've always been a bit tightly wound. Just
relax and enjoy it. When a big king he comes
on with the fish here.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
And you guys, you guys have obsessed with fish. I mean,
Lana wants to know about grimmers.
Speaker 5 (35:31):
See here in New Zealand, he's everywhere. Yeah, people had
to dress and grimmers so nervous. Who do you want
to be out of the mcgild's cars star anyway, he got.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Look, stop corrupting. So I want to I want to
tell your story. Okay, God, So when I was working
for Rugby New York. I had this great idea, which was,
how do we get rid of these hoodies that we
had that were no longer able to be sold because.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
They look like health and safety.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
And we've changed a lot about the club. So I
thought it was a good idea to give them to
the homeless. I thought we had like a container load
of hoodies. It's given them to the homeless people of
New York. It's cold in New York. And that was
well received. Unfortunately, over the next sort of month, I
was getting videos of people begging stuff in our merch.
Someone broke into our captain's house and on the security footage,
(36:29):
the burglar was wearing our merch.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
So did they think that was part of the team
or do they realize.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
That, Yeah, all these like all the homeless people of
New York were supporting Rabbing New York. So it didn't
go down too well. And then there was a point
which was a low point. So we can't show this
video on the on the show, but I can show
I'm not going to show it to you, Lana, because
because you're doing it, but I'm going.
Speaker 5 (36:50):
To try so you have you've actually shown you this.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
I've seen it. This is In fact, it may have
been suggested that I passed it on.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
This is a couple, This is hu that's what this is.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
To watch this stuff.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Yeah, and like here, if you ever that, don't show
it up to the camera because lean up in jail.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
Well, no you will because you've just forced us.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
You can't force us to watch.
Speaker 5 (37:15):
Well, you delete that from your phone.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
This is the tenth time you've watched it.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
That's not And you have an issue with people running
fish under the field.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
I was just using it as an example.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
A couple of people in the subway.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
Yeah, a couple of people on the subway.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
No, when I got my health and safety debrief before
going on the subway, that was part of the health
and safety debriefs.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
A man and a woman expressing themselves together on the subway,
and both of them were wearing Rugby New York. Both
of them were wearing Rugby New York hoodies that I
had given.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
To the homeless.
Speaker 5 (37:53):
But why did you show us that she forced us
on recorded the red lights.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
It's just the punchline of my story.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
You had an issue with Mecca running Spider Man footage.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
I look at this, there's like a father putting a
kidding the Spider Man suit and sticking them to the walls,
and apparently that.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
Was not right. We have to go legal in this something,
just to clear um going right.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Well, the good thing is I've got Big Delvin's number
and I want to bring him over.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
Needs to give you a slap. That's what you need.
That's you know, we need the dwarf to cut with
the young fella to come in here. Aaron, Aaron had
to give you a table slap. I think that would
be the appropriate, the appropriate, the table slaps on the table,
full leverage to slaps you in the face.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Anything else you want to talk about, I'd like to
end the show right now.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
Well, I think you did that about ten minutes going.
Speaker 5 (38:53):
Video, I think you've ended the series.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
I think you edited the All I did was showing
quite as going good.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Is there money?
Speaker 3 (39:01):
And you know you're just over reaching.
Speaker 6 (39:06):
The end.
Speaker 9 (39:07):
Thank you,
