JRE MMA Show #128 with Kamaru Usman

- Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
- The Joe Rogan Experience.
- Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
- Just gotta, you know, make sure
that you sign a whereabout is up to date.
- Is that what you just did?
I can't believe they woke you up at 5:30 in the fucking morning.
- Oh yeah.
- That's ridiculous.
- They don't care.
- But that's not even not caring.
That's like negligent.
It's like if you're, if you have an athlete
and the athlete has to rest and recover
and you're waking them up at 5:30 in the morning,
you break their sleep cycle.
You're affecting the training.
You could cause an injury.
You could, a lot of shit could be wrong.
- But I think for them, it's, it's, oh, we're, we're,
I don't, well, I don't know, cause I'm not them.
But, you know, I think some people,
fighters feel like, oh, it's there.
Oh, we're going to catch them.
- Yeah.
- It's 5:30 in the morning.
We're going to catch them before they do anything,
which is, which is stupid.
- Well, Ali was saying that it's EPO,
that it's like short lasting.
So if people take it and they take it at night,
it'll be out of their system by the time USADA shows up.
If they show up at 9:00 AM, then, you know.
- I wouldn't fucking know.
Maybe he would.
- Yeah.
- Like Ali, how do you know that information?
- How does he know?
How does he know?
Well, you know, if you're a manager, you, you're dealing with at least one cheater.
- Yeah, I'm sure.
- If you have 50 clients, there's a guy in there that's doing something funky.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
- What percentage of fighters do you think are doing something?
- Do I think nowadays?
I mean, it's, it's tough.
It's tough.
Cause I never really, I never focused on that.
I never worried about it, but I, I did know that, you know, yeah.
Some fighters, you could just, you could see back in the day, like, Hey, this
is not normal.
- Right.
- Last year I saw you, you didn't look like that.
- Right.
- And yeah.
So I think, yeah, back in the day, back in the day, pre USADA.
- Oh yeah.
- You could say, you could say, I would say a good, maybe 25 to 30%.
- I think before USADA, it was higher than that.
- I think there was a time where it was, I don't know what the percentage was,
but I think it was a lot of fighters.
And then it got real squirrely with the testosterone replacement shit.
- Yeah.
I do remember that time.
- That was the dumbest time ever.
The fact that they didn't think that through and they just let people game the
system like that.
- It's, it's, it's funny to me because, um, I get it all the time now.
- Of course.
- Like people, people accuse me all the time.
And, um, and I haven't really told the story, but so I, one day I saw like
people kept tagging me in this video and there was this, some fucking guy, some
dumb ass that's on YouTube that, that swears he can spot people that do, you
know, PDs.
- Oh, it's probably more plates, more dates.
- Maybe.
- Yeah.
- I don't know.
- Derek, he's been on the podcast before.
- Yeah.
So he's like, yeah, I know that guy's doing it because I can see the marks on
him and stuff like that.
And so he starts to point, they, they start pointing out cause I have, uh, like,
like five scars on my stomach.
Like, you know, like burn, like discoloration on my stomach.
And it, and he starts, they start pointing at that and he starts talking about
it and making up this whole theory.
And it kind of, it kind of hurt my feelings a little bit cause it, it should
make you happy.
- I was out.
Okay.
So that's, here's the story.
I was a little self-conscious about it because, so this is what happened.
I was in college.
This was my, I want to say junior year, sophomore, junior year going into my
junior season.
And, um, actually I think it was after my junior season.
So I, I started getting these, I got it like a mole on like my stomach and I
got one like on my, my hand.
And I, I'm one of those, I'm kind of like a clean freak.
Like I shower, you know, after practice right away.
So I start scratching it and then it starts bleeding.
So I'm like, fuck, that's not a regular.
I thought it was like a pimple.
That's not a regular, like a zit or something like that.
So, and then I, you know, over time it was like, maybe it was like five little.
It was like tiny.
You could barely see them.
So I'm like, you know what?
I'm going to ask the doc.
We have a team doctor.
I'm going to ask him about it.
So I went in for a physical.
And then I went before the season, I asked him, Hey, you know, I have this
right here.
I don't know what they are.
So he looks at him.
He goes, Oh, these are non-cancerous moles.
They're just little bitty moles.
You know, it's very, very common.
I'm like, shit, not for me.
I don't know.
Common for me.
He's like, yeah, they're very common.
I'm like, yeah, well, how can I get rid of them?
I try to scratch them and they bleed and he's like, yeah, you don't want to do
that.
What we could do is I can burn them off.
And I'm like, okay, fuck it.
Let's do it.
Cause Hey, spring break was going to come up.
Like I started, I started, I started, I'm lifting now.
I got a body now, you know, I'm a, you know, I'm a junior and I've looked jacked.
So I'm like spring break is coming.
I want to look jack.
I want to look good.
You know, so I don't get walking around with those.
Fuck no.
So he's like, I can burn them off.
So he burns them off with, I think nitrogen or something like that.
So he burns them.
And then he goes, Hey, those are going to fall off in a couple of days, you
know, just give
him time.
So I'm like, okay.
But I was so like, I was still training heavily during the summer because I was
just like an
addict of wrestling.
I wanted to, for me, I wanted to get catch up to everybody and I wanted to
exceed everybody.
So this was my time, the summer that that was my time for me to catch up.
So my dumb ass, I go back the next day.
I go to school and I'm back to the school and I go in and I go drill.
I go wrestle.
I couldn't stop.
I was just training all summer.
So I wrestled and I didn't think anything of it.
I was like, okay, they just burned those, but nothing has happened yet.
And so I wrestled.
And then later that evening, I'm sitting in my, I go, I get down, I'll get in
the shower and
I'm showered.
And all of a sudden I just burning down there.
And I looked down and I had like scrape them off.
Like, so as soon as he burned them, he said, don't do anything.
They're going to fall off on their own.
But my dumb ass wrestled and it rubbed up against it.
And now they all fell off.
So then they scarred it.
Cause now I was like out for like seven days, like putting Neosporin on it just
so they
can heal.
And then they scarred over.
So I have those from just that moment.
So then this fucking guy's like, oh, he's, he's doing PEDs.
Look, look, he's got the marks on his stomach.
And it hurt my feelings.
I'm like, I'm, I'm like one of those guys who I'm like, I don't even think
about PEDs
because my work, even if I don't care, I probably have dealt with someone that
was cheating
or competed against someone that was cheating.
But my work will far exceed all of that.
And so when I see idiots online or saying, oh yeah, I know for a fact he's
doing PD.
I'm like, have you ever been to fucking Africa?
Have you been to Africa?
There's a lot of Francis Ngannou's walking around.
There's a lot of guys like me just walking around.
And because of the work and because of the way that I fired, they're like, oh
no, he's definitely
gotta be doing something because they can't explain why.
You are the way you are.
Why your performance exceeds what their, their mind is mentally capable of.
They can't explain it.
There's a photo of you.
We're on top of the cage after one of the victories.
Oh yeah.
And you're like this, like.
It looks preposterous.
Like if I didn't know any better, I'd be like that motherfucker's on some shit.
Genetics are real man.
Oh it definitely is.
Genetics are real.
This is not, everybody did not get the same deck of cards.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah that one.
Look at that one.
Come on son.
If I saw that shit.
If someone said, do you think this guy's on the juice?
I'm like highly likely.
Yeah.
Adrenaline.
Everything.
And I think this, yeah, this is right after the Masvidal fight.
Oh man.
And I just, yeah.
Was that your sweetest victory?
The second Masvidal fight?
It's tough.
Tough to call.
That one was so shocking.
No, I think the first, the first Covington fight.
Yeah.
It was probably the sweetest.
Just to stop him.
Yeah.
And I was like, I deal, you deal with so much.
We deal with so much things going into fights.
Before fights.
And I don't think that was going into fights.
And I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
Yeah.
I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
Yeah.
I don't think that was going into fights.
I don't think that was going into fights.
Yeah.
I don't think that was going into fights.
Before fights.
Before fights.
And I don't think people care.
People don't care about.
But I don't think people understand.
So to make it to that fight.
Just to get in there.
To step in there on fight day.
Nowadays, I'm so grateful.
Because you deal with so much.
From family.
From relationships.
To children.
To injuries.
To finances.
All of that.
And coaching.
To where by the time you actually step in there.
It's like peaceful.
This is like I'm grateful to be in here.
That I actually made it in here.
So I think that Coventify.
The first one was probably the sweetest.
It was just too much.
There was so much shit talking.
He puts people in a crazy state of mind.
Yeah.
Because he goes dark, man.
He goes after your family.
He goes after your friends.
He goes after past relationships.
He just tries to find anything that he can light on fire.
Yeah.
There's an art to that.
I mean some guys.
Yeah.
Some guys.
It works for.
But it's.
For me.
What I would love to do is ask.
And hopefully in the future I can do that.
And just sit down with these guys.
And ask them.
Like what.
How did you feel after that?
Like what.
Like are you.
You.
You.
You've got to be human too.
You've got to feel something.
Right.
After you go that far.
And let's say you don't win.
You do lose.
How do you feel sitting at home?
Can't be good.
That.
No.
You can't.
Like I know how bad you feel losing.
I've lost now twice.
So I know how bad that feels at home.
How do you feel when you got your ass kicked.
And you did all of this shit talking.
All of this and it didn't work.
All negative too.
Yeah.
Really negative.
Oh yeah.
There's a dark energy and a dark aura that just surrounds that.
When you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then when you do lose people get so happy.
Oh yeah.
When you talk so much shit.
And you're so mean and nasty.
And then you lose.
People get so happy.
Connor.
Connor the first.
Oh yeah.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Oh man.
That was.
Yeah.
Like.
Perfect example.
I think.
Habib went from like maybe.
Maybe two to three million followers to like 12 overnight.
When he was on top of him pounding on him go let's talk now.
Yeah.
Let's talk now.
Let's talk.
And he's just punched him in the face.
He's got.
Habib's got some savage moments.
Oh man.
I think one of my favorite.
I think.
I don't know if it was.
It might have been the Edson Barbosa fight or some other fight where he was.
He was on top of the guy.
He was holding him with one hand.
Holding his face.
And he was beating his face with the other hand.
I was like.
This is the most savage shit I've ever seen.
Michael Johnson.
He did that too.
Michael Johnson.
He was gotta quit.
That was very sweet for me.
That one was.
That one was hard to watch because Mike was like my training partner at that
time.
We were really like training together.
And Mike was on the upswing because Mike had just killed Poirier.
Yeah.
And he was.
Mike was really having a great, great run.
I got
