- The Joe Rogan experience.
- Do you think you could still throw down?
Like if it had to happen?
Like if Jake Paul called you out?
- Well, he probably fucked me up.
- Really?
- He's a really good boxer.
He's a good boxer.
- What if it was kickboxing?
He doesn't really know how to kickbox.
- When I was a younger man and I had good knees,
I could be kickboxing people,
but I could barely get through a workout
without being in pain now.
There's a reality of knees and backs and shit.
- Have you tried the PBC peptide?
- Yeah, that too is also a really good one.
- It helps you maintain,
but there's a big difference between maintaining
and working out and then being able to train for a fight.
- Yeah, so you think interesting.
- Like being able to train for a fight,
your body would break down.
- Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Jake is interesting, man.
He is excellent at trolling.
- Dude, he's good. So is his brother.
- Yeah.
- His brother's, we played a video
of his brother wrestling Paulo Costa.
- Yeah, yeah.
- His brother is fucking legit.
He's a legit athlete.
- Yeah, I think he wrestled back in the day.
- Yeah, yeah, he did.
Wrestling college.
Jamie tried to shut it down and say it was like junior college,
but it was actually real college.
- No, no, no, no, no.
- That's that Ohio rivalry right there.
That's what that is.
- No, listen, man.
You gotta give credit where credit's due.
I know those guys like to troll,
but Jake and his brother are both legitimate tough guys.
They're tough.
- Do you think that you need trolling now for fight sports?
Are we at a point where like,
that's the only thing that engages the casual fan?
- Well, Khabib Nurmagomedov is the biggest draw in combat sports.
And he doesn't do any trash talk.
- But is that a reflection of dominance?
It's like, are we kind of watching to see if he'll lose?
Like the Mayweather effect?
- Well.
- Like how many people are rooting for,
like Khabib seems like incredibly like sweet guy.
And he's like a consummate professional.
But I feel like the way you market the fight is not in the way
that when we were younger watching Roy Jones,
we're like, yo, Roy's gonna do some crazy thing.
We're like, puts his hand behind his back
and he just knocks the dude out.
Like we were rooting for Roy to win,
even in his most dominant time.
I feel like now the way you promote the fight is,
oh, this is the perfect guy to take out Khabib.
You know, like Justin's the perfect,
oh yeah, you know, he's got striking,
but he has a wrestling background.
We're kind of like thinking of different ways
where you take them down.
Whereas like, yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if like,
I don't know if we're,
if we're rooting for him to win in that way.
- Well, if you're a fan of his,
you're rooting for him to win.
- Sure.
In Afghanistan and that kind of stuff.
- When you have a guy who's,
Khabib's 28 or 29 and 0,
and really has smashed everybody in front of him.
- Yeah.
- You always wonder like,
who's gonna be the guy that solves that riddle.
- Yeah.
- And Justin came real close with those leg kicks.
- Yeah.
- He was, he was really fucking up his leg.
- Yeah.
- And, but Khabib figured out a way
to get the fight to the ground,
almost finished at the beginning,
or the end rather of the first round,
and then got him in the second round.
- Yeah.
- He's just, he's on another level.
- Yeah.
- And that's one of the things that happens when you're,
I mean, you gotta realize that guy is supremely disciplined.
- Yeah.
- Supremely dedicated.
Like doesn't drink, doesn't smoke,
doesn't fuck around, doesn't abuse his body,
always fit, always in shape, always training,
and lives like a champion.
And it's like very religious, like very devout Muslim,
like doesn't, doesn't fuck.
- I think that helps.
- Oh yeah, he's so disciplined, no partying.
He's not partying, he's not doing coke and banging hoes.
There's none of that.
He's just smashing people.
- Yeah.
- You know, but I think he's,
they're trying to talk him into having more fights.
- Right.
- But he told his mother that he was gonna retire
after he fought Gaethje.
- Yeah, I remember seeing that.
- But you know what, man, he's in his prime,
and you only get one prime.
- Yeah.
- You know, and as the most dominant man in the sport.
- Yeah.
- What's going on here?
- It's that weight cut he had there.
It was going around again from his last fight.
- Oh, he always cuts a lot of weight, man.
- But it was apparently very brutal.
- Yeah, it's brutal.
- But what more can he prove?
- He's not really 155 pounds.
Like he's, there's a thing in mixed martial arts
that we all just accept,
and it's a sanctioned form of cheating.
Like you're pretending you're 155 pounds,
so you draw your body out.
You dry out to 155, and then you fuckin' balloon back up.
Eat a lot of spaghetti and balloon back up
to 200 pounds after the weight cut.
- Yeah. - It's nuts.
