Speaker 2 (00:29):
Before you know it, World Baseball Classic, before you know it,
some great fights, before you know it, NBA into full gear,
NFL Draft. But can I give you some shitty news?
I just saw not news, but I looked up. When
is our next three day weekend? Like we just had
a nice holiday weekend? People at President's Day off?

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Will you start the show? Debbie Downer, Memorial Day? Thanks
hitting negative.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
I know Easter Sunday, but we don't get days off
of that, So everyone watching and listening, you gonna have
to use those company holidays because we don't have there's
no national holiday.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
For two and a half months. Well, I'll give you
something good to look forward to. You got some good
fights this weekend, man, some good fights yeah, less god, I.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Know you're also pumped about a month from now, Mike Diathan,
Floyd Mayweather. Yeah, and you got Gina Corono and Ronda
ral See lots of announcements this week. And speaking of fights,
this weekend, it's a UFC main event, UFC Fight Night,
it's a middleweight main event Bro Strickland twenty nine and

(01:30):
seven versus Anthony Hernandez fifteen and two, and Strickland Sean
Strickland just off his rocker, unhinged, probably the biggest maniac
in the fight game ever. And we're talking about guys
like Mike Tyson, guys get punched in the head for
a living dude. The press conference with this dude, people
were just like, yeah, keep going, keep going. I listen,

(01:52):
this is an uncensored podcast. I don't even want to
play some of the stuff this guy says.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
I would feel uncomfortable playing there.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
He went after gay people, trans people, women, every like
this guy. He's so fucking unhinged. I don't know what
where he isn't offensive.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
This guy can't speak a sentence without offending somebody. He's
just out of control. It's insane. So I leave that
on you. Over promised Fox Sports Radio Nation. If you
haven't seen his press conferences or any of the hype
leading up to this fighting, or any interview with this
maniac again, too many punches to the dome, I think
check him out on your own time. Honestly, it's almost

(02:31):
waive that it's almost funny. It's sad and funny all
at the same time. I mean, you could get a
laugh out of it because you're like, yo, is this guy?
It was fucking for real. It's unbelievable. So it got
us thinking, right, Yeah, we've lived in some crazy times,
watch some crazy fights, some crazy athletes who are the
most unhinged athletes of our lifetime.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Well, listen, Sean Strickland, I'll give you the analogy. You
know what a girl superad. Let's say she's got an ass,
you praise, she's got the perfect body.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
You know, ass worship is a big thing.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
But you know, when a girl is like a twelve,
you'll put up with her being the biggest pain in
the as Ever, when athletes are really good at what
they do, We've tolerated quite a bit over the years,
and I'm glad you compile the list with me because
besides Strickland, being a good fighter. For years, we tried
to find a home for Antonio Brown, team to team

(03:24):
to team, until he finally ripped off his jersey and
left the field. We tried to do everything to accommodate
this guy.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
I mean, what an exit. And the sad part again,
much like Strickland, it's sad and funny at the same time.
The sad part is how great he was and when
we met him early in his career, what a nice,
personable dute he was. I don't know what happened, but
even just this week, he's in the news because he's
filing for bankruptcy or whatever. Meanwhile, he's posting videos of

(03:52):
his brand new grill. Have you seen it? Of course
I'm crazy. Maybe I am crazy. One hundred thousand dollars grill,
one hundred thousand dollars diamond grille. But he's bankrupt. Look
at this guy. What happened? No, I'm off his rock No,
not off his rocker.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Un un well, speaking of a speaking of rockers, John
Rocker Atlanta Braves picture. In the two thousands, late nineties,
two thousands, Berry talked about all the minorities in New
York and said, all this racist stuff and everyone's like, ah,
that's John Rocker.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah, I'm thinking back to all the earlier highlights I
have in my dome in the brain, I'm thinking like
the mad Hungarian Al Roboski, the picture, the guys that
seemed unhinged. But then you got John Rocker and he
takes the cake because he just defended everybody.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Let's let's make a line in the sand. Yeah, that's
the saying, right, a line in the sand, line in
the sand. This side like unhinged, meaning like peculiar. I'm
talking unhinged, like says some shit that you're like, what
did they say? John Rocker was the most unwelcome dude
at then say stadium in New York. He insulted everything
about the melting pot that is New York City. And

(04:58):
you know if he said that today, you know, no
doubt he'd be kicked out of the league.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
And when we say line in the same pack, then
they're also excluding like people who got arrested for crazy things.
And like, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Said, because it's so serious, I'm keeping like children in spouses,
like any abuse type of stuff, I'm keeping out of this,
Like I mean, you're gonna put an Aaron Hernandez on
this list.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
No, this is more of a you know they're on
hany these guys are out of control. And speaking of
John Rocker, right, he's the guy who comes to mind
and we still talk about because he was so out
of control, so unhinged. He only played six years, but
he was part of that winning brave dynasty. Right, but
six years he was thirteen and twenty two eighty eight
saves like, we have this vision that we dealt with

(05:40):
him only because he was great.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
He was okay, he was just more of a personal
lot of stuff, a lot of things. I don't think
this guy is mean spirit. In fact, I think he
might just be misunderstood but unhinged as well. Dennis Rodman
out of control. I don't know what story I like better.
And I know you know the stories. Actually, you know
what A spot or video shows a picture of him
getting married with the wig on. How about that story

(06:02):
as a woman unhinged? But my two favorite stories about
Dennis Rodman. And I was gonna say, well, or I
could add when he hung out with Kim Jong un.
I was gonna say when he told Carmen Electra women
fell out of the ceiling. That's why he cheated.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
She caught him cheating now is his excuse. Yeah, they
fell from the ceiling.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
And the other Dennis Rodman story that we learned when
we watched Last Dance. He was m I A Phil Jackson,
Michael Jordan Pippen. No one could find them. There he
is with Kim Jong Un, which is wild. They turn
on the TV and he's hanging with Hollywood Hogan.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
In the NWL, he wrestled, he had different color hair, unhinged.
He was one of the first with all those tattoos, right, piercings, everything.
The worm man, Dennis Rodman is definitely on the list,
especially for the time because even at the time, he
was the only guy who's tatted up like that and
pierced like that and was wild like that. He was

(06:56):
a wild man, out of control Dennis Rodman. At the
same time, he was a great basketball player, the greatest
rebounder maybe ever.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I don't think anyone says bad things about him, So
that's why I'm saying, it's not like he's a bad dude,
just unhinged.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
And uh, I think the last one is sort of
borderline because she did commit crimes and everything.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Well, I mean, well, here's the deal. You can blame
it on Galuley and his goon, that's it. But the
reality is Tanya Harding, the fact that whether she claims
involvedent or not, the fact that someone took a pipe
man Nancy Carrigan's leg. It is Olympic season and we
did get Tanya out of it, which is a pretty

(07:34):
good movie showing off that she's not just hot. That's
called glamour casting, by the way, Margot Robbie. So yeah,
we're not bringing oj up into this conversation, right, just
Tanya Harding.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Can we end with oj oh J? Simpson? Can you
go back to that spot? Why why oh Man so terrible?
And it ties into the Winter Olympics? There you go?

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Am I wrong by remembering she won silver? I don't
remember what did Nancy Kerrigan wins? Well, you know, doctor
boy chat GPT.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
I don't remember how that ended GPT. All right, So again,
based on Sean Strickland this weekend against Anthony Hernandez, a
lot of people tuning in just to see him get
an ass whooping middlewaight main event UFC Fight Night this weekend.
This dude out of control. That being said, enjoy the fights.

(08:29):
Speaking of fights.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
But by the way, she won bronze in ninety two
and silver in ninety four, never won a gold medal.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Nancy Kerrigan. Okay, speaking of fights, that leads us to
something we do on over promised a list you don't
want to be on conversation you want to be part of.
They might be ass who might be asked this week?
Well they're not quite ass yet, but I'll tell you
this based on fights this weekends. Ryan Garcia twenty four
and two. Ryan Garcia is fighting for the one van

(09:00):
WBC strap as they say. He's fighting Mario Barrios, who's
twenty nine to two and two the Aztec Warrior. If
Ryan Garcia loses to Mario Barrios, he might beat ass.
Let me tell you why.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Maria's last five fights is a good fighter, but Barrios
is boring. So Garcia has a chance to win back
some fans because his last fight was boring as hell
when he fought up what's his face?

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Who did Ryan Garcia fight?

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Last time?

Speaker 1 (09:27):
He fought and lost to Romero, So that was boring.
That was his worst fight. Well, his last four fights
were this. He got knocked out by Gravante Davis. Then
he beat Oscar Duarte. Yeah, no contest. Devin Haney, even
though he was dominant, Osteren ruined the fight. No contest.

(09:48):
Then Unitim' STIs while getting knocked down by Rolely Romero.
So if he loses this fight, this run he has
is popular run boxer, social media, superstar, handsome guy, but
he's a little just speaking of the last conversation, a
little unhinged.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
You've seen him saying some questionable stuff on social media.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Right, this might be the end of him as a
serious boxer. I'm not saying it's the end of Ryan Garcia.
I'm saying as a serious boxer because Mario Barrios, who
has the won forty seven belt WBC, his last two
fights ended in a draw. He's sort of a boring
He's got more weapons than Ryan Garcia. But Ryan Garcia
has better weapons. He got a draw against Abel Ramos,

(10:29):
and he fought an one hundred and forty eight year
old Manny Pacchio. Yah pokea forty six forty eight years
old and he got a draw against Pacchio. So if
Garcia can't beat Mario Barrios, it's over.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
But it's gonna be a bad Garcia, you know, Garcia
had the bad loss against Roley Romero, that was embarrassing.
The loss against Gravante, Tank Davis body fine. I remember
the body shot. He took a knee and just couldn't.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Recover the weight clause he was dehydrated.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Yeah, is he lost to the best pound for pound
guy in Tank Davis. I'm not holding that against Ryan Garcia,
but I think he needs to recover from that really
shitty boring. Remember New York City closed down Times Square
fight that was all lackluster.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
That was Garcia's lost. That was a big upset. That
was terrible. Yeah, So if Ryan, if he loses, Ryan
Garcia as a boxer might be ass So we're hoping
to see a ready to fight and prepared Ryan Garcia
of the past list.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
So I'll watch that if I if I catch up
on Today Tyters and Love is Blind, then I'll watch Ryan.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Garcia fight and the Cat Williams special. Bro, you gotta
watch that. I was good. What he said, I have
a square head, he said, has a square head like
Harman Monster, like Harman Months he talks about. Speaking of fights,
he talks a lot about Mike Tyson, how he put
money on Mike Tyson to beat Loca Jake Paul and
when he saw Mike Tyson with his ass out, he
knew it was over. I mean, I think we all did.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
I remember when Mike Tyson came down to the ring,
I was like, why did I bet on Mike Tyson?

Speaker 1 (12:06):
So hey, Ryan Garcia might be asked if he loses,
may the best man win? A think he's gonna be
a decent one.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
I think there's a trend on today's over promise. We
went over unhinged athletes. We just talked about who might
be asked, and now we're going to get into are
we using our last brain cell?

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Last brain cell? R it living brain cell. There's a
new sport in town. It's not basketball. It's even dumber
than that. They're calling it run it and it's exploding
in Australasia and they're saying it's the next level sport.
Did you just make up of your country? That's what
they're saying, is the exploding sport in Australasia. Two athletes

(12:46):
twenty meters apart, brain damage bait. Take a look, what
is this? Just full force? That's it? That guy's dead.
He died right there. Concussion one dude carries the ball,
other dude full speed trying to stop them. It's like
an old football drill going one hundred miles per hour.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Canas you know, when what are the scariest moments in
the NFL? Remember when Tua was on his back and
his hands were like yeah shaking. That was, I don't know,
the scariest shit.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Two dudes, two concussions and you got all these fans
loving every second of it. On purpose, Yeah, and it's
all run it.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
This isn't wide receiver over the middle on a slam
pattern and Ronnie Lott hits him in nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
This is on purpose. So it's not the first basketball
level of dump sport we've seen in recent history. There's
other ones. Yeah, run it, crush it, crush your skull
is what's happening here. Again, other sports that require your
last brain cell. The ain know White's behind one of them,

(13:55):
and that's power slab again very viral. You've seen these
videos and it breaks the first rule of fighting. Protect
yourself at all times. That's what makes it terrible. No
one's protecting themselves now there. It is what is referee,
referee is protect yourself at all times, shake hands, have
a good fight. That's what makes this terrible. Can't lie

(14:18):
UFC boxing you're protecting yourself, swimming in, not getting wet, sticking,
move there's no sticking. There's there's only sticking, there's no moving.
Can't lie. I've thought about doing this to you, but no,
I can't lie.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
If Dana White said Cavino Rich, you guys want to
come hang front row power slap, I hate to say,
but we'd go, but it seems so barbaric.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
And I'm not some big because you're sitting dune. I'm
not some big lame. I'm not some I like a
good fight, but you're right, defenseless seems wrong, Like that's
the difference with power slap. Sure we watch. I don't
want to sound like a hypocrite. Of course I'm watch
it like watching that train wreck? But uh, is it safe?
Is it fun? Is it? Our last brain sell pretty much?

(15:03):
Power slam cove? Yeah, I mean, what are we gonna
do next? Nut kicking? Like imagine like, oh you're up?
Beavis did that the buttonhead, didn't he? Yeah? So yeah,
that would be the next sport.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
I looked this up because like, what are the other
dumb sports that maybe didn't catch on or at one
time we're allowed, you believe politically incorrect, but at one
time dwarf tossing. Dwarf tossing, Yeah, what's the real thing?
It was like, yeah, toss the little guy.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
I don't know what Stummer run it or dwarf dwarf tossing.
But how about limbo skating.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
I saw this and I'm like, wait, I'm sorry what
limbo skating?

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Apparently you skate and then you get on all fours
or like you could do that. I bet they used
to do that back at the old skating rinking. I mean,
that's pretty impressive, though, limbo skating. I strap my helmet,
can give you the no, not that helmet, my other helmet. Joggling.

(16:08):
I scraped my helmet on the floor.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
Joggling you mean when people jog and juggle at the
same time. That sounds not like the lamest thing I've
ever heard of.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
That's really stupid. Yeah, joggling people imagine like your son's
a joggler. Yeah, wait to go, kid, appreciate that you
kid involved in any sports, your kid playing. I got
one kid, he's a LARPer, he's LARPing yeah. And the
other kid he's a jo. Yeah, he's a joggler. Joggling
that's how you know you failed.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yeah, let's see what else we Oh, I got one.
I know you're down for a good arm wrestle. Even
back in the eighties, remember thumb wrestling. Yeah, have you
ever toe wrestled? I bet you eat your dictoes, you'd
be good at this. I do have big toes, which has.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Giant dick toes. Look at gross. But again, if there's
a market for run it. Yeah, toe wrestling, I guess
is a big deal. And it makes me think of
Seinfeld's bit on the biathlon speaking of the Winter Olympics.
Oh yeah, it looks like you're missing the slow mode,
the of the final move. What he did the over
the top of his big toe. There he is the

(17:09):
toe jam champion. Imagine a toe wrestler on a on
a first date, like, oh my god, Like, what do
you do for fun? Like what your side hustle? Dude? Yeah,
fu toe wrestle. Seinfeld does this whole bit the involuntary louge.
How it's the only sport where you could take someone
from the stands and just throw him down Like yeah,
like how stupid. It is like, oh, he pointed his
toes gold medal, What a great afflee. She also talks

(17:31):
about how stupid the biathlon is a cross country skiing
and then shooting a gun. He goes, how many he says,
how many alpine skiers are into this snipe game or
something like that. That's funny and he goes, that makes
as much sense to me as swimming and shooting a gun.
What are you doing? No? Swimming and strangling somebody's what
he says.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
So did you do you see Colin Jost at the
Olympics this year He said that he went on a
bob sled run. Yeah, and it felt like his bone
We're gonna thought of his body and his spine was
gonna be crushed. He goes, we watch these people on
the bob slide and luge and we think, oh, yeah, whatever.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
I guess it is impossible. He was the most the
most terrifying thing he's done. I'm sure it is frightening,
but I mean he did it right. So either way,
last brain cells, sports, which one stands out to you?
Which one are we forgetting? And enjoy the fights this weekend?

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Man?

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Well good one, enjoy us up at Covino and Rich
hashtag over promised, hashtag Covinos the man.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Is this the time that I should announce our first
ever Covino on Rich Hill wrestling tournament.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
