Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Our.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Two on this Wednesday. It's a pizza Wednesday at that
Shrimp and bacon, pesto pizza, barbecue chicken pizza and vodka
pepperoni pizza.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Who is it better than we do? Nobody?

Speaker 2 (00:18):
All right, we're fully assembled, fully equipped. Fritzy is back
in body. I don't know if in mind. He's still
a little under the weather, but this is his Willis
Reid moment. He's out just for a cameo and could
steal the MVP. Dylan is here. We got Marvin Paula,
yours truly in the backroom, guys. Stat of the Day
has always brought to you by Panini America, the official

trading cards of the program. Good morning, those watching on
Peacock or are great radio affiliates around the country, over
four hundred around the world. Eight seven seven three DP
Show email address dpat Danpatrick dot Com, Twitter handle the
DP Show. We got a bunch of people calling in
talking about the World Cup up talking about Messi comparison

(01:02):
to Wayne Gretzky. You got Ronaldo and Messi. Is that
like bird in magic? It's good. It's fun getting people
to talk about this NBA Finals ratings ABCESPN had the
most watched NBA Finals since nineteen ninety eight with Michael
Jordan the Bulls in the Utah Jazz Saturday's Game five.

(01:26):
The average audience was twenty four and a half million viewers,
peaked at thirty three million viewers, and it's the most
watched NBA Finals Game five since nineteen ninety eight. Statura

(01:51):
The Day brought you by Panini America, the official trading
cards of the Dan Patrick Show. We have a new
poll question. We'll get phone calls coming up. Paulie said,
this is an unbelievable poll question that he has that
it could be debates, bets attached to this.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
It is that important.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
It's a bit of a sports social experiment. Football is
the biggest sport in our country. Soccer the biggest sport
on Earth. Not really a debate. Whose career would you
want Eli Manning? Remove money, Eli Manning two Super Bowls,
likely going to the Hall of Fame, very good quarterback
in the sport that a lot of people love in America.

(02:34):
Or you could be Lino Messi likely going to go
down as the greatest player in the most popular sport
on Earth, remove what they make. But what did you
guys think you would do? And what do you I
want to bet on the results?

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Are you betting now or do you want to wait till, Like,
how do we know that you?

Speaker 4 (02:53):
I'd like to give our answers first and then we
can bet on the results, because I'm curious if being
the best ever at the biggest sport on Earth, Trump's
playing football because football is still the most popular sport here.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, I'll go first, but I want to throw out
this caveat MESSI can't really live in a normal world,
Eli Manning.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
He can't.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Eli can come and go. Nobody's going to be mobbing him.
Nobody's camping out of his house. If he goes to
a restaurant, there's not thousands and thousands of people. You
might have a couple of people coming over and saying,
can I get a picture? So you got to factor
that in as well. That with that stardom, that global stardom,
MESSI doesn't have a normal life when you have a

(03:41):
full time security team.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
You got to factor that in.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
I would still want to be Messy because that's global.
I'm the greatest. I'm in the conversation. Eli's not in
the conversation. He's going to be a Hall of Famer
and he's won two Super Bowls, and he'd bet I'm Brady,
but I would take Lionel Messi's career.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yes, Paul.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
And it's interesting. You grew up loving football. You played
some football, You've never played soccer. I really love soccer.
You like it now, but it's that's how powerful Messy is.
It's a sport you don't really want to play.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
I appreciate it, yeah, but I was never a soccer
fan just because I was playing other sports. I felt
like those who played soccer played soccer because they, you know,
weren't big enough to play football or whatever. It might be.
Brother in law who played in college. I mean, I
get it. I just I didn't get it when I

(04:37):
was growing up. I mean I didn't get golf till
I was thirty five. I'm like, that's my dad's sport.

Speaker 5 (04:44):
Todd, I'm gonna go because it's NFL. And the reasons
you gave, you know, two time MVP. He did it
in New York, and he did it both times against Brady.
Mainly again because I'm just much more into football than soccer.
I'm gonna go you Li.

Speaker 6 (04:56):
I am in Dylan, I'm gonna go Messy, and he's
the goat Marvin Messy.

Speaker 7 (05:03):
I want to be the greatest at something.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
Right, Paul, Yeah Messy, no doubt.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, yeah, so I don't. I don't think it's much
of a debate. Now, if you said you could be
Tom Brady or you could be Messy, yeah, Paul.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
I thought that made it too easy on football fans
because he's similar to Messi in our sport of football.
Would you want to be a very good quarterback with rings?
I think this is gonna be a very close pole question,
and Eli's gonna get like forty.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Because there are people who don't think Eli's a Home
of Famer, right, but they love football like Fritzy loves football.
You'd have to come up with a better football example
for me to make this closer.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
Eli was booked today.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
That's why.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Okay, Oh, that's half the reason of the pole question. Okay,
would you rather be Peyton Manning or Messy?

Speaker 4 (05:52):
I'm gonna I'm gonna throw the BS flag on that.
I think we need to go with someone a bit lesser.
No offense to you. He is a you know, going
to be a Hall of Famer has to rings.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
I would still want to be messy over Peyton Manning.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
That's that's pretty impressive.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yes, he's the he's the greatest, He's the goat. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
If you said you could be messy Lebron or Tom Brady,
is it obvious that you're going to take tom Brady's
career because you know Lebron is in the conversation the greatest.
Because I don't want to put Jordan in there, because
I would take Jordan. Uh but if I said you

(06:35):
could have like you could throw in Tiger, you could
throw in I can't throw in Mike, uh, Lebron, tom
Brady with messy, yes, Dylan, Yeah.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
I guess like every obviously up for debate goat in
their respective sport. Yeah, would be what Jordan Gretzky mess
just for saying Jordan's gonna win that. Yeah, Yeah, Jordan's
gonna win that. Like I could put Gretzky in there
as well Otani, But yeah, who said who do we

(07:08):
have on the other day?

Speaker 8 (07:10):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (07:10):
C C.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Sabbabi has said Otani is the greatest baseball player of
all time.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
He homerd last night. I think he said four. Yeah
for you do.

Speaker 6 (07:21):
I think it's a little soon. The crown and the
best baseball player of all time? Will he barring any
you know?

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Okay, does he have to have three more great year?
Like he could have three more MVPs?

Speaker 6 (07:37):
Right, he's gonna get when he's basically a locket for this, Yes, yes, Todd?

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Would Ali hold his own in a poll like that?
Or because it's boxing and uh, you know, he called
himself the greatest, but obviously some of the accolades of
some of these other you know, players we've talked about
in other sports. But where would you put Ali in?

Speaker 3 (07:53):
You know, it's worldwide, it's global.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
He was a showman, he told you when he was
gonna knock somebody out.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (08:05):
Sure, I don't have any problem with that. Yeah, I
love mixing in all the goats. But I think that
the Eli Manning angle makes this tougher because you're picking
a good borderline Hall of fame guy in the sport
like Fritzy picked it because he loves football that much.
It would really help if Messi were also booked today
because Eli's already on the show just saying.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Uh, yeah, it's not a debate. The only thing that
I wouldn't want is MESSI can't live a normal life
the rest of his life if he wins another World Cup.
You know, you see when he goes to a restaurant
in Miami, word gets out.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
There's thousands of people. You know this. It's not Taylor's swift.
This is messy. Yes.

Speaker 6 (08:52):
Would you rather win a World Cup or a super.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Bowl World Cup? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? Do you get a ring?
You beat the world? You beat the world.

Speaker 6 (09:03):
But don't we call the super Bowl like you won
a World Championship.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
No, it's the World Series. But super Bowl is just
us here in the United States.

Speaker 6 (09:12):
Well, I heard a lot of Knicks fans say they
want a World.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Champions Hey, I'm fine with that too. You are, yes,
our Knicks. Nicks go New York Parade tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Oh I know.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
I did say that the two back room guys Anthony
and Rob could go to the parade tomorrow if they
took off their shirts and they actually put uh N
and Y like they were together, and that they could go,
but they had to paint. One had to have an
N and one had to have a why, and they

(09:44):
they had to walk together the entire parade. The entire time. Yes, Dylan,
that seems fair.

Speaker 6 (09:50):
I mean I actually asked them, I said, if this
was the only way, if the only way for you
to go to the parade was to also fly to
Carolina on Saturday and go to the hurricane, because they
said they would do that, so they seem very amenable
to taking if off.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Yeah, we're not doing that, but yeah Carolina, we're not
doing that parade.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
That's Saturday.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
But if the back room guys want to go to
the parade tomorrow, but they have to paint their chest,
now we can decide they can have a G and
an O for GO, or they could have an N
and a y.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
You could have uh jay and B for Jalen Brunson.
Whatever it is, Yes, doing.

Speaker 6 (10:30):
Do they have to go tarps off on the train
into New York?

Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yes? All right, I like that, and I went video, Yeah, yes, point.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
If it's G O and they put go, they could
call switch spots and be og.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Okay, all right, I'm going to give it to you versatility.
I'm going to give it to you bloop bloop, Drew
and Columbus. Good morning, Drew. What's on your mind today?

Speaker 9 (10:51):
Five eleven? When you have the lovely Rebecca low On.
And you ask you where to go, I'm going to
recommend that you up an Arsenal Tottenham match. I'm a
massive Arsenal fan. I've been to the North London Derby.
I also have season tickets to Ohio State and I've
probably been the fifteen Ohio State Michigan games. And I'm
gonna tell.

Speaker 10 (11:11):
You it is a tea party compared.

Speaker 9 (11:13):
To an Arsenal Toton match. If you want to understand
what it means to those people. I mean, those teams
represent the streets those people grew up on. It's just different.
It's just different.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Yeah, And I want to experience that. I haven't been
able to experience that.

Speaker 11 (11:28):
Now.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
There's a couple of sporting events that I would like
to see in person.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
Dan and Denver. Hi, Dan, Hey Dan.

Speaker 12 (11:38):
Thanks for taking my call.

Speaker 11 (11:40):
Five nine, one hundred and seventy five. I just had
to call in.

Speaker 8 (11:43):
To correct my younger brother doing in Denver.

Speaker 11 (11:45):
You just spoke to Steph Curry Messi. He's a great cop,
but Messi is the goat. He's Jordan, He's Gretzky, He's
the best ever. There's really just no doubt about it now.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Well, I think we were talking about when you see
Steph Curry, you go, that guy does that, and that's that.
So I don't think that you were saying that Steph
Curry is Messi. It is the comparison of you look
at somebody and you go, how is that guy doing that?
And that's what you get with Messi as well. I
think Messi and Gretzky very similar.

Speaker 7 (12:18):
Yes, Marvin, Yeah, I think Messi's more impressive because he's
short compared to regular people. Steph Curry might be the
tallest guy that we perceive as being short, because when
you see him in person, you're like, damn, he's a
legit six'.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
Three.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah when we were with him In tahoe and you
guys got to, see you, know when he was sitting
down AND i walked in and he stood up and
gave me a big, hug And marvin, Goes, damn he's
taller THAN i. THOUGHT i, said, yeah he's like he's six.'
three but out there when he's on, the floor he looks. Really,
Small yeah paul short for, the sport tall, in, life,
yes yes, doing yeah if you.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
To put, in perspective he's the same Height As, derrick
henry who looks like a giant on a, Football.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Field well but he would probably kind of look like
a giant in real, Life too like he's a.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Large, guy yeah, you know.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
You know who's a Guy That. Brandon jacobs, Oh, yeah
god we saw him and we might have been at A.
SUPER bowl i don't know what, it was but like
he was a. Big guy and that's a, Running back like, you're,
going damn he's six', Four, to, sixty yes dud you

(13:29):
can make an.

Speaker 5 (13:29):
Argument FOR both but i was curious what everybody thought
is a tougher? Sport to play hockey or soccer since
we just Made a Messy gretzky.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
And, Alis, hockey hockey yeah hockey with all.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
The endurance of the running versus skating.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Hockey in soccer.

Speaker 8 (13:46):
You.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
CAN stop now i know you get breaks with, hockey
NEAR shifts but i mean you're doing all of, that
on skates and, when you fall you're not, falling on
turf you're falling on ice and that pucket coming at
you one hundred. Miles an, hour and guys it was
so Unbelievable what. The hurricanes did there'd be shots on

(14:08):
goal and these guys would be just sacrificing their body
and not everything is padded and they have to have welts.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Bruises all over.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
But, oh my, god no hockey you, got to stick.
You gotta puck you, got the ice. You're on skates
they want to take.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Your head off.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
They're allowed to take. Your, head off hey you nearly
took his head off two. Minutes, For, you YEAH pauline.

night great, cigar not, Expensive, great, cigar yes poem.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Isn't this gonna?

Speaker 3 (23:17):
Make, it harder well?

Speaker 2 (23:21):
YOU doubled DOWN i. Know, i, DO yeah right i take. It,
all back well IT'S just, like i mentioned my Favorite Tequila.
Is FORT deliza well i, Can't get IT so maybe
i start bringing UP brands that i don't REALLY like
and i throw people off.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
The, Scent, here yes.

Speaker 7 (23:37):
Marvin the funny Thing about the knicks is obviously they're
in the biggest city, in the world but they have
like a small town feel to. Their Championship run mike
brown went to the restaurant and everyone's clapping for him
like it was The end Of Hoosiers and gene hackman's
walking to the local diner. And everyone's clapping that's, how
it feels and the whole city rally around then like
it was just some Small town In.

Speaker 11 (23:57):
Ohio.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
OR indiana yeah i think that's a great point of but,
It's the team like nobody felt larger than The Team
because jalen brunson made a point to, make a team make,
this a team make it feel, like a Team. Just
like villanova villanova wasn't a great basketball team from The
Standpoint of Filama jama Or georgetown OR, duke or, ucla

(24:20):
but collectively like that's, where you go that is that was. A,
great team yes doing.

Speaker 6 (24:27):
Would You Rather be Jalen?

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Brunson, or manning well YOU know how I Feel. ABOUT jalen.
Brunson i Do I'm. Taking jalen brunson. Eli has two
here's A, question for eli what was? A Better Pass

(24:49):
mary O Manningham or david tyree? A better pass, because
to me. It's it's obvious The Pass to marry manningham
is one of the greatest passes any quarterback. Has ever
thrown you Factor In, the super bowl a, game winning
drive and The fact that i'm standing on the sidelines

(25:11):
and he makes That throw, AND i'm thinking i don't
know where he's, thrown this to but it's going. To
be intercepted that pass was. Unbelievable and underrated The One.
With david tyree he just. Threw it, Up you Know
it's Like Montana. TO dwight clark I still think joe
was trying to throw that out of. The end zone
but that Throw To, Mary, o manningham yeah it defied. Logic, And,

(25:36):
PHYSICS yeah paulie.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
I hadn't seen this one. In a while eli's on
his own, five yard line there's a touch of pressure,
in his face, there's double coverage and he's going towards
the sideline and he puts it in. The only.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
Spot it's incredible it's, a, Good.

Speaker 7 (25:50):
Reminder, yeah marv yeah the impressive Part about the tyree
catch wasn't the throw or the catch or the catch
was but the second most impressive part was him getting
away from the.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Two defensive linemen that was. The, impressive part well he
should have been called in the, grasp probably so but
you know it Was an incredible we do talk, About
The catch, david tyreek Catch but what eli did to
get that throw. Off that's underrated but The Throw to. Mary,
omnaghaan Awesome yeah pall messy couldn't have made, that throat

(26:24):
now he could have Kicked It.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
To mary omanaghan he could. Have done that he could have.
Threaded the Needle, Patrick, And, nashville hi patrick what do you?

Speaker 8 (26:33):
Have?

Speaker 14 (26:33):
For me.

Speaker 10 (26:35):
Hey dan just wanted to, say second time long time
six three TWO twenty and i wanted To comment on
Paul's comparison of european soccer. TO college football i think
college football should adopt the model That soccer, in europe uses,
whereas the clubs along with, paying the players directly compensate

(26:56):
the clubs whose players. They buy from Clubs like my
liverpool will still dominate, the transfer window but the smaller
clubs they Buy From like buyer liver cus and will not.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
Lose, Their, PLAYERS yeah patrick i.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
BROUGHT that up i brought that up a. Couple of
times if you, lose a player let's say you're The
coach at toledo and you lose A Player. To Ohio
state ohio state should be paying a transfer fee to
the smaller, schools because, then you know it helps them with.

(27:32):
Their Athletic budgets ohio state not going to put a.
Dent in theirs but if you're taking these players from
other schools that, want to transfer it's. A transfer fee,
but you know eventually we're going to Be Like. The
premier league you're GOING to have x. Number of teams
they're going to be playing, on their own and then
you'll have the rest. Of, college, football yes hun if

(27:54):
you're already paying.

Speaker 5 (27:55):
The smaller schools to embarrass, and humiliate them it seems
like they go hand in hand that you can at
least give them some compensation if. You're, approaching players.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah but we're not going to, be doing, that you,
know moving, forward you know and it'll, be you know
in the next ten years where You're Not. Playing texas,
state you know you're gonna you're gonna have a schedule JUST,
like the nfl and you.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Won't be in.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
These other schools there's gonna be programs that have to
drop sports because they will not. Have the, revenue so
yes you're paid five hundred thousand dollars to be, a
sacrificial lamp and that five hundred thousand. Is really important
but this is a way that maybe you can compensate
some of those schools who do find somebody who proves
to be kind of a diamond in the rough and,

(28:40):
then they, transfer You Know. To ohio state you. Compensate
these schools Carlos. And, El, PASO hi carlos.

Speaker 9 (28:50):
Kdp six.

Speaker 12 (28:51):
Four twenty, five LAST night as i was, WATCHING the
game i was, thinking of comparisons like we've been talking
all AND the one i wanted to drop today was
last night we Saw Something if michael Jordan on the
wizards decided to play or just display fell as, a

(29:12):
point guard and then we kind of found out that he's,
just as good, if not better as. A point guard
it's Just seeing what messi is. And, Is doing anyway
thank you appreciate, It.

Speaker 10 (29:27):
All, Right.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Thank you Carlos, Chris, In, connecticut hi chris what do you?

Speaker 8 (29:31):
Have?

Speaker 10 (29:31):
For Me hey Comparing messi to Eli Like comparing Dan Patrick.
To rich eisen you want Family Feud in Rich Eisen?

Speaker 15 (29:41):
Is rich?

Speaker 3 (29:41):
Isisen, Thank you, chris it's true. But it's. Rough, IT'S
true yes i.

Speaker 6 (29:49):
Feel Like with, A messy comparison i would have an
easier time moving off of him With Like a tiger
woods or Maybe Like. A roger federer i Guess something.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
Individual polly wants to have a rebuttal it's. Not a
comparison the poll is more. OF an experiment I knew
that messi would. Win this poll my guess it's going
to be seventy. Five percent percent but the fact that
twenty five percent of the voters would PICK a good
nfl quarterback over the best ever in the biggest sport,
is telling.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Well those are people who may not they're. Voting against
soccer they may not Be. Voting for, eli, It's like
uh i'm not going to vote. For.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
Soccer. Exactly yes yes do you.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
Want to guess what the early results of. That poll are, i'm,
gonna say uh seventy four Percent. Voting for messi.

Speaker 6 (30:44):
Seventy seven point eight percent, are Saying elime No.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Maggie In, Minnesota, Hi MAGGIE.

Speaker 16 (30:55):
HI hi dp i want to keep the conversation going
about what, sport, is, harder. Uh soccer hockey i've had
extensive experience IN, both and, uh for me it's it's
always been soccer mainly because hockey is still a hand. Eye,
Coordination sport uh soccer is a foot. Eye coordination sport and,

(31:18):
it's super unnatural. Especially as, youngsters you know if you
learn how to skate a get hockey is uh is difficult,
on the ice but you learn how to skate and,
it becomes easier, becomes, pretty, natural stopping starting all that.
Sort of, stuff whereas, soccer you know you're trying to
take a ball with your feet and and hockey is

(31:39):
just still hand, eye, you, know golf tennis hockey have
have an instrument. In your hand it's all extension, of
your arm but it's all still. Hand EYE coordination so
i wanted to keep. That debate going And, Uh, And
messy yeah messi's, goat.

Speaker 11 (31:51):
All, Right. Thank.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
You maggie, yeah for me just what, hockey players, do the, physicality, the,
endurance speed quickness doing, it on ice.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
Guys that are allowed to take your. Head off, it
to me it's.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
It's hockey now you KNOW boxers when i when you
go to, a boxing match like, a heavyweight match and
if you're lucky to sit, close.

Speaker 8 (32:21):
You know one.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Guy's walking in two guys walking in one is. Not
walking out they might be, carrying them out and there's
nobody who. Can help you and to Be There when
Mike Tyson fought michael spinks or When He, fought marvus frasier.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
It's a. WHOLE different, world i mean That's That's, The Roman, Colosseum.

Speaker 6 (32:44):
Guest dylan if we were to combine, hockey and soccer
would that be the hardest sport where you're on skates
and you have to kick a soccer ball.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
And you would be using your, Skates, on grass yes that, would, Be.
Yeah yes marvin some hockey players have to know. How,
to box, also, oh.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
Yeah, yeah, Yeah yeah yes tod the uh.

Speaker 5 (33:04):
Getting back to where you're, SAYING about boxing i just
went to. A few fights the sound of the punch
that you don't pick up AS, much on tv and
seeing the contortion of someone's face as, they're getting hit
and the blood and the things that aren't necessarily picked
up as readily when you're.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
Watching on ten and it used to be you went
fifteen rounds for. A title.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
FIGHT fifteen rounds i mean you Look Back at ali frasier.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
At fifteen rounds and just. Pounding, Each, OTHER yeah Paul
i think.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
I'd rather get punched by a boxer than a, hockey
player though because when they, drop the gloves. Those are
knuckles there's a little. PADDING in boxing i know the punches.
ARE way tougher i don't want to get punched by. A,
HOCKEY player well.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
I don't want to get. PUNCHED by anybody i guess
if it was a, Choice, of two okay you, can
get well you don't want to Get. Punched, by tyson
no let's go someone. A little low give me like
A Nice. Middleweight, aaron crawford yeah he's five. Hundred Career,
Wreck tommy, Hearns oh man I've Been watching tommy hearns.

(34:06):
Videos here lately it. Don't you know don't, get.

Speaker 11 (34:12):
Me started.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Man these guys. Are so quick they're so.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Quick And powerful and hearns was built differently because he
is tall for his weight class and that reach. And
the quickness and when you See Him fighting roberto duran
and this is hands a stone and damn is he
Coming at and durand knows. He's in trouble, at one

(34:39):
point he's trying to Be Cocky, with Tommy hearns and
hearns is having nothing to. Do, With it man it's
just a matter of, you're going down how do you want? To, Go,
down Yes marv and i've worked. Boxing matches before you
don't realize how long. Three, Minutes is yes like when
anybody here that's been, in a fistfight the fist fight
is probably thirty to forty. Seconds your, Hops you're right

(35:01):
you're like even if, you're you know hitting a speed
bag or just, hitting you know a stationary bag and
you do thirty seconds and you're sweating.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
And, You're, Exhausted yeah paul.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
But if you Get Punched, by tommy hearns it's one
you're down and, you're probably unconscious so you. Don't Feel
Much if jeff bookaboom pulls your jersey, over your head
he's doing eight punches to your head.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
And holding you up.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
Whilst.

Speaker 5 (35:25):
Doing, so true yes with so many fights we've, seen
over there with a, lot, of, hugging dancing holding at,
least you know in. The recent years but that and you've,
mentioned It Before that hagler hearns fight from the sound
of the bell when they just went after each other
for those few rounds you knew it wasn't gonna last
very long the way they just destroy each other?

Speaker 3 (35:42):
From second one?

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Was it true we should check on this during The
break that hearns right from the opening bell Went, right
after hagler and people, ARE you know i think the,
announcers WERE shocked but i think that didn't he, Have
Likeomic issues tommy hearns, like bathroom issues and that. He,

(36:05):
was trying, NOW once again i could be spreading a a,
lie a tail spinning, a yarn here but like They
Wondered why tommy hearns Went, right AFTER hagler and i
remember hearing somebody say that maybe he.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Had, Stomach, ISSUES yeah pauling.

Speaker 4 (36:25):
I do find some stories that said that, was, a
rumor unimproven and. Interviews, afterwards debunked okay but They Said,
that tommy hearns, notoriously slow starter purposely was told to
and decided.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
To, swing, early yeah boy that.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Didn't go well, hagler was tough and you he lost
that One Fight To sugar ray leonard because They Said
That sugar ray. Leonard, outscored him now none of Those,
punches hurt marvin and that was, the you know he was.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Like he didn't he.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Didn't hit me he, didn't hurt me but they scored
it like should array landed a. Lot of, punches all
right let me, take. A break man we're all over.
