What makes a fight weekend unforgettable? Start with a UK card that rewards the early watchers, add an underdog who outsmarts a younger prospect, and fold in a heavyweight main where cardio—not power—decides the story. Then drop into Philly, where Jaron “Boots” Ennis turns a bruised sports week into a statement at 154, and close in Brazil with Charles Oliveira refusing caution, outclassing a wrestler on the feet, and sealing it with a second-round choke that shakes the arena.

SPEAKER_00 (00:00):
It's Philly and I like the fight happening episode
55.
Listen, man, we had boxing, wehad UFC, we had business done
with the Brits, and we went toPhilly.
Okay?
Now and we went to Brazil.
(00:23):
This was a great weekend.
See, I started my weekend,right, with the UK card.
Start the UK card from the topto the bottom.
Now, what I love about watchingcards from top to bottom is that
you don't miss the banger fightsin between those co-main and
main events.
Let's talk about that.
We're talking about the Allenversus Mahmoud.
(00:48):
Heavyweight UK match.
One of the matches in there wasBilau versus Jannad.
Jannard is a young man.
Bilau is 37.
Now he's supposed to lose onpaper.
The last fight was a draw.
Other people said he got it.
This person said he didn't.
It's pretty crazy to have theseodds stacked against you,
(01:12):
especially in boxing, becausethe judges have to give it to
the guy that's going to be thelonger star.
That's how it usually goes.
And MMA as well.
If the guy's not a star, he'sgoing to get fucked on the
cards.
Now, this guy didn't get fuckedon the cards.
He outstruck.
He outfought.
He damn near dropped him in thethird round.
Shout out to Bilal Fauez.
(01:34):
I cannot believe that this37-year-old roared back that
way.
He looked more athletic.
He looked smarter.
He looked faster.
He looked stronger than a muchyounger man.
Kudos to him for coming backafter that, though.
Now, when we go to the mainevent, I thought Dave Allen had
all the tools to win this match.
(01:56):
I just think he didn't have thecardio to get past his own.
Like he just didn't throw enoughpunches.
If he could throw 10 morepunches per round, he would have
won that match.
The other guy was tired.
The other guy started boxing.
He started outboxing Dave Alleneasily.
(02:17):
Easily.
Just picking him apart.
So like I like Dave Allen.
I think he's a great champion.
I know his story.
I know how he talks about mentalhealth and things of that
nature.
So I respect him as a man.
But when you're in there withthese guys, you gotta have the
cardio.
And that's what's that's whatlost him the fight.
He could have won this fight.
(02:37):
Shout out to his opponent.
He wants to fight Anthony Joshuanext.
That's a good fight for bothmen.
Let's see if Anthony Joshua canget past these types of fighters
at this level after so many bigdefeats.
You know, he just lost to DuboisKO.
So he's coming off of a loss,and it was shocking.
(02:58):
He got dropped a lot in thatfight.
He took a lot of damage.
Now, speaking of damage, we getinto the boxing card, the innis
boots boxing card.
He's at 154 now.
It is great to have him breakthe curse of Philadelphia this
week.
We'll get into that later.
(03:18):
Let's talk about the Cobainevent.
Guido versus Alexis.
Guido dropped him in the fifthand finished him.
It was crazy.
These heavyweights are thumpers.
Everybody, pay attention to theheavyweight division.
These guys are thumping.
Every fight is action-packed.
Even the Dave Allen fight wasaction-packed from the bell till
(03:41):
the end.
So if you see a heavyweightdivision fight, you should tap
in.
Shout out to those guys.
Shout out to Guido.
I can't.
He got the belt now.
He got the WBC ContinentalAmerica's heavyweight belt.
So shout out to him.
He's a title holder now.
And the heavyweight division iswide open.
(04:01):
Wide open.
Anyone can get in there.
So when you're watching theseguys, they can win two, three
fights and end up fighting Usik.
Just give him some time.
Now, in this game, my man Lima,no time at all.
First one.
One and done.
KO.
Listen, the Eagles lost.
(04:22):
The Phillies lost.
Boots ain't losing.
He's probably that pissedbecause of that.
It's been a horrible week forPhilly fans.
And Boots turned it around, man.
I'm really glad and excited forhim for the 154 division.
I think he can beat any of theseguys.
Any of them.
Name somebody, I think he couldbeat him.
(04:44):
I think he's the next one up.
You know, the next top-tiertalent that's going to be
running amok across boxing.
He's going to inherit the crownfrom Terrence Crawford.
Terrence Crawford only got twomore fights in, and he's going
to retire.
That's what he said.
So we got to start looking atEnnis Boots, Decor Stevenson,
(05:05):
other fighters that are just asgreat, just as good, with great
skill sets, just like him, thatknock people out in the first
round, put them in a fuckingblender.
Now, speaking of people andputting people in a blender,
bro.
Out in Brazil, shit got real.
We got Charles Olivar coming offa KO loss to Ilya Tapore.
(05:29):
Everybody and me, and me, sayyou shouldn't fight this soon.
We were all wrong.
Now, let's get into the Colemanbecause we already know about
the main.
Let's get into the Coleman.
We got Figgy getting the W overMontel, split decision.
It was a close fight.
It was that close.
It should have been a splitdecision.
I don't know where this does.
Like the Bantamweight division,the division he's in is stacked.
(05:52):
I just saw Henry Sehuda.
He wants to fight Peyton Toblettright now.
He's booked to fight him.
The champion is about to fightPeter Young again.
Adamweight is a oh man.
It's a shark tank.
It's a shark tank.
And honestly, it's probably oneof the most exciting divisions
in the UOC.
(06:13):
The UC is loaded with excitingdivisions.
Like it's always something greatyou want to see.
Way Lee is about to fightBallatina.
So like it's it's it's real.
The best versus the best.
That's all we're getting incombat sports.
We see Charles Oliveira get thesub in round two in Brazil.
He is undefeated in Brazil.
(06:33):
He shouted out his family.
He raised his kid like it wasLion King.
Like this is real shit, man.
You can't make it up.
It was great to see that forCharles.
It's great to see him in a wincolumn.
And he just bullied him.
Bullied him on the feet,bullying him on the ground.
Gamrod, known for his takedowns,known for his wrestling game.
Didn't want his takedown, didn'twant to wrestle, he wanted to
(06:56):
strike, and he got outstruckedand then he got choked out.
So shout out to Charles.
He called out Max Holloway.
That's a pick em fight.
If Charles get him down, it'sover.
If Max can keep it standing, hecan knock him the fuck out.
The fight.
