Speaker 1 (01:43):
What up, guys? Is Friday. I'm in Nashville. Big fights tomorrow.
But Dana White went on full sin and started letting
out all kinds of information, So let's talk about it
on today's episode, brought to you by Total Wireless, the
official wireless provider of UFC. They're in your corner with
unlimited five G data that will not slow you down. Hey,
(02:05):
Dana White went on full sin yesterday, and I don't
know if he was supposed to tell us all that.
He told us. We're gonna get into all of it.
One he said ilio Islam could happen the moment Islam
becomes Walter Wait champions, he feels there's a super fight
to be had. We all kind of agree, but maybe
(02:25):
Dana knows something that we don't know. We're gonna talk
about that. John Jones said he's back in the testing
pool and it was for one reason only that the
UFC said that they are. President Trump said that he
wanted to do a fight at the White House, which
is our third topic that Dana White touched on, saying
something in this quote, un full Sin, that makes me
(02:46):
believe that this is not a thought, this is actually
a reality. So first, Islamahachev and iliot To Puria are
circling each other's houses right now, right if you're at war, right,
these two dudes are on the beach waiting to go forward.
And it's interesting. Dana White was on Full Fin and said, hey,
(03:10):
if Islam becomes Walter Way champ, you immediately have a
super fight. Aliab Dela Ziz, Islam's manager, was on uh
Henry and Tomorrow's podcast. What's it called again? These guys?
The podcast is called uh God, I can't remember the name.
(03:30):
I was on it last week. Pampa Pound, Yeah, it's
called Papa Pound. I cannot believe I was on the
bank like that Aliap dela Ziz on Pampa Pound and
he says that had Balal lost, Islam was going to
fight against Iliot the Pouria. So essentially all the things
(03:50):
we thought leading into the Balah Mohammed Jack dela Madelena
fight was exactly what it was going to be had
he lost Jack dela Madelaine. I mean, we would have
gotten Islam versus Iliot to Pooria. So in that sense,
when you hear that from his manager, you feel like
(04:10):
it's not as far off as you may think whenever
you see those guys kind of not being able to
come to terms on that fight. Obviously, we know that
there are some big fights in the UFC. I don't
know that there's a bigger fight than the UFC can
make that's gonna be bigger than to Pouria and Makachev
(04:31):
if they are to fight guys. Iliot Tapooria is a
massive favorite over everyone in the UFC except Islamikachev, and
that in itself tells you what people think of Islam.
Because of how highly regarded Iliot to Pouria is right now,
especially after becoming the UFC lightly champion in the fashion
(04:52):
that he did against Charles Olavera. But Dana said it
right away, it's it becomes walter weight champ. You have
a super fight. But what becomes of the promised Iliot
had to make to the UFC to not move up
to walter weight if he became the lightweight champion. There
(05:12):
are a lot of things moving right now in the
uf SEEN. A lot of it is centered around those
two guys. Right You have one guy who depended the
belt four times, has five UFC lightweight title wins, most
in history, going up towards seventy to try to become
a two division champion in Islama Kachev. You have another
guy in Elliot Taporia, who beat the two greatest featherweights
of all time, moves up to one fifty five, beats
(05:35):
one of the best lightweights we have seen of this
era in Charles Olivera in one round and everybody wonders
what's happening with him. Patti Pimlen walks into the cage.
Armant Serrukian's still there. Now. You hear the boss saying
you have a super fight. And what we know about
the UFC is when there is a super fight. It's
hard to turn away from it because not only does
(05:57):
it bring the bucks, he brings the eyes. And that's
a fight that I think would bring a lot of
eyes to the UFC and the product, and I believe
it would be a very good fight between two of
the best mixed martial arts on the fan planet right now.
A he's one of the greatest on the planet. Islam
has proven to be the Pamapollo number one fighter in
the world, and that's been the case for a while now.
(06:22):
I love hearing stuff like that. I love whenever we
get those types of updates from the Boss because I
love when he's in a situation where he's super comfortable
and he just kind of starts to talk, Because when
he just starts to talk, you get stuff like this
where he was talking about Daddy, was talking about the
White House, he thought about John Jones. I mean, he
(06:43):
just was giving a lot because he was in a
bit of a comfortable environment for him. But first and
most importantly to me was the fact that we may
not be as far from Tapuria Makatchev as we may
have believed initially. When you hear his manager saying and
it was the next fight had one other thing happened,
(07:04):
and the fact that you hear Dana White going, uh,
super fights right on the verge. If Islam becomes to walkaway,
champ onto John Jones. So John Jones retired a couple
of weeks ago, and so many ran to call I
said it. I said he quit because he didn't fight
(07:25):
Tom Asmnal, and so many people said he duck. I
was in this weird situation where I don't want to
say he ducked from someone, but I was saying he
quit fighting. I still don't believe. For I don't believe
that he's afraid of anybody. I just don't think that's
how any fighters see, especially one that has had the
(07:47):
success that he's had. But Dana goes and says yesterday
that he's back in the testing pool, and then Jones
himself enters the testing pool the day after the White
House card gets officially announced by the President. When the
President goes, we want to do an event at the
(08:09):
White House. Same day, John Jones gets in the testing pool.
You guys know, if you watch good Guy, Bad Guy
the other day, I said, listen if there is a guy,
because if it happens, it's on fourth of July. We
need an American to win right now, guys, we don't
have an American in the top ten PAMVA POM. We
don't have an American in the top ten PAMVA POM.
(08:33):
We don't have an American champion outside of Kaila Harrison.
Now that John Jones retired, So who do we spend
out there on July for it to get a victory?
I say, send John Jones. He's gonna win, that's what
he's done his own career. If it's gonna be somebody
that we have to trust to win for the country,
(08:53):
you send that dude. And that's me saying that is
a guy that has never seen eye eye with that dude,
never seen that. I'm saying, if we got to send
an American mail to go get a victory, you better
send John Jones. And then you start going down the
list right the Max Holloways in, the Dustin Fouriers, who's
retiring next weekend, so many other great champions. If we
(09:17):
absolutely need a dub, you got to send the man
that's proven to be the baddest dude out there, and
that is Jones. Uh. You know John said when he
announced that he was coming back. He said, I called
(09:37):
the UFC headquarters the same afternoon on the fourth of July.
I'll leave it at that. America Now that tickles my pickle,
he said. Essentially, he needed something to motivate him, and
fighting at the White House is something that motivates him
and he would do that. But does he go out
there and fight Tom aspinalf still right, because you gotta
(09:59):
imagine by that point, Tom will have fought a couple
more times and possibly I've defended a championship. He may
still be the world champ walking into the White House,
and John Jones is gonna have to go, hey, hey,
get our independence. He said, he fight anyone, So I
(10:20):
mean that means he fight Tom Aspina right back in
the same Honestly, John doesn't have a choice but to
fight Tom if he comes back, if Tom's still the champion,
that that is just what it is. And honestly, as
fans of fighting, you guys should be excited because anytime
he fights, it's better and the sport is better when
(10:40):
John Jones is around. Last thing, guys, Dana White said.
The last thing Dana said was Kyle was asking him
what would be his dream card and he said, Jones
versus Asphall, con McGregor versus Michael Chandler. He thought that
would be the perfect one. And the guy started talking
(11:01):
about this, this this Kyle Mean, and Dana goes the
usc landscape will have changed by then. We got a
whole year. Hey, initially we thought this was just a thought.
It's not a thought. It ain't a thought. When Dana
starts saying stuff like like definitive, like the landscape will
change by next year, we have a whole year. This
(11:22):
isn't a thought. The White House is happening. This fight
card is not well, maybe we'll go to the white House. No,
it's happening. They're going to the White House. I've heard
these conversations publicly, and every time that idea starts to
turn into something real, the wheels are in motion. This
(11:43):
is how the sphere started. This is exactly how the
sphere started. Where it was a thought, we're gonna go
to the sphere. We want to try to go to
the sphere. Then it was like we're a year from
the sphere. There's time we can figure it out. Then
all of a sudden, we're at the sphere. That is
how it happens. So in my opinion, I'm planning to
(12:05):
go to the White House next year. Guys, Old DC's
going to the White House to watch a UFC fight
is happening. I know things seem impossible at times, but
with this group of people, I mean Donald Trump, the
President saying it, and then Dana White saying what he said,
we got a year. There's a lot of time to
plan for it in a year. If there's a person
that makes things happen like this is Dana White. A
(12:28):
lot came out of that interview last night. Get excited
because we aren't as far away from Islam versus Ilia.
And John Jones's back, so he wants to fight at
the White House and we're going to the White House. Unbelievable.
Next week if you have Next week is UFC three eighteen.
I cannot wait to get back to New Orleans. I
(12:48):
can't wait to see my people. But tomorrow we start
in Tennessee. That is really beautiful. Thank you guys for
