The Joe Rogan experience.
Like, did you see the UFC this weekend?
I didn't and I won't.
Oh my God.
Brian Ortega and Alexander Volkanovski had one of the craziest title fights I've
ever seen in my life.
It was wild.
And I kind of wish I was there.
I was out of town for that one.
That was my hunting trip, so I had to cancel it.
But God damn, it was so good.
It was so crazy.
That was a fight you couldn't call.
Because Ortega almost won twice with two insane submissions.
Once with a, he got him on the bottom with a guillotine, or he mounted him,
rather, with a guillotine.
And then he got him on the bottom with a triangle.
It was insane.
And Ortega is known for his submissions.
His submissions are some of the best in MMA.
He's a Torrance Jiu-Jitsu guy, right?
He's from the original Gracie Academy in Torrance.
That's where I train.
Keep going.
Horian ran the school, and his sons, you know, Henner and Heron, and Brian Ortega
came from there.
It's like lineage.
It's lineage.
It's like some of the purest Jiu-Jitsu that you're going to get.
And when you say fundamentals, like Brian Ortega has perfect fundamentals.
You know, Krohn, Gracie.
Perfect.
Perfect fundamentals.
They do everything to, like, this razor sharp.
When he dove on that guillotine choke, I was like, that is, like, I wish people
could see how beautiful that is the way I see it.
Yeah.
Because I know how hard that is to do.
The way he slipped it in and got mount on the world champion.
Yeah.
Full guillotine mount on the world champion.
And the guy got out.
I mean, he's gurgling.
It's as deep as it gets.
And when you realize how good Brian Ortega is, and what he's in right now, he's
in a mount, but he's also got his legs crossed underneath, which is like the
most ruthless mount.
Because a regular mount, you're on top of a guy, and the guy can kind of buck.
But Ortega's got his legs crossed.
So that kind of guillotine with a guy like that is death.
It's death.
And that crazy motherfucker from Australia got out where 99.99% of the people
who have ever lived would have tapped out.
Yeah.
That fucking savage is like, not today, bitch.
I'd rather die.
I did a deep dig on Brian Ortega.
So good, dude.
He was on Schaub's Calabasas Companion.
Yes.
And probably one of the most interesting human beings I've ever heard talk.
He's an actor, and he just doesn't come at it as an actor, which is how I come
at it as.
Like, just a regular person.
He's an actor?
He was acting before he did fighting?
Please, please.
No, we don't have to pull it up.
No, no, no, no.
Is that true?
Let me know.
Hold on.
Brian Ortega was in a movie with Shia LaBeouf.
They were both in the movie, but that was like the first, or maybe he's done
very few things.
Was that when he was already fighting?
When was that movie?
Very recently.
Oh, yeah.
In Schaub, they were like, Schaub was an extra, but Brian's in it too.
But they probably brought Brian in because, you know, he's already fought for
the title before.
He fought Max Holloway.
He knocked out Frankie Edgar.
I mean, Brian Ortega has been a bad motherfucker for years.
I heard you talk.
Well, I got into a deep dive about him, and I do a thing called Open Tabs,
where I keep all the tabs open in my Safari browser,
and then I do a podcast about telling you about all the shit I learned over the
weekend.
And I had a big Brian Ortega one, but I took it out because sometimes with cage
fighters,
maybe what I say isn't what they hear, and I don't want to piss any of them off.
I know what you're saying.
Like, some dudes are super sensitive.
Well, I'm sensitive.
I'm sensitive as fuck.
And Brian Ortega was in this movie with Shia LaBeouf, and he said, he told this
crazy story about Shia trying to fight him.
And I was like...
Oh my god, that's hilarious.
And I was like...
Is that real?
Is that real?
Yeah, yeah.
I heard the story, so I mean...
That is hilarious.
And so, but Brian Ortega, the way he was telling the story was like, it was
good.
Like, it was legit good storytelling.
Like, he can do jujitsu.
I can tell a motherfucker's story.
Right.
And the way he was telling the story...
Was like the way you would do jujitsu?
No, not at all.
Actually, if I knew jujitsu, yes.
He was telling it good.
He was telling it good.
