Joe Rogan Experience #1260 - Lennox Lewis & Russell Peters

Don't crashes crash as much only that's the issue
Four three two
This time we're live ladies and gentlemen, we are live with the great and
powerful Russell Peters
Hi, and one of the baddest motherfuckers ever get into the ring. Yes, Lewis don't
mess with the best
That's a fact that you know you're walking around on this earth one of the baddest
motherfuckers of all time
Verified a hundred percent feel good about it, too. It's gotta feel good. Yeah,
don't get in any fights
But you know what else you have your wits about you a hundred percent you you're
smooth and relaxed
You know, how did you do that? Oh, I started out that way
It's like, uh, you know
Apple don't fall too far from the tree type of thing. I've always been that way
collective thinker
soft-spoken
and
What you don't know about me what you don't know about me when you do know
about me. You love me even more
Do you exercise at all anymore boxing wise do you hit the bag and well not not
hit the bag?
I'm more into like working out with the weights. It was like it was hard for me
when I retired. That was the worst part
Uh, what was the hardest?
Just you know saying okay, you know
I'm eating more so I need to exercise because I'm not doing no exercising, but
when I start exercising
I'm training for a fight, right?
So it's like okay training training
Why am I doing this? I'm not gonna fight, but I'm still training for a fight.
So
Mentally, I had to say to myself. Well, let me try the soft things
You know, let me play tennis and all these different sports, which I can play
and that kind of helped me a lot better
Yeah, that is an interesting thing with fighters a lot of times when they're
done they're done. They just get look at my dana
Yeah, well, he's apparently gotten back. He's training back. He's got he's back
in training camp, but my dana got big
You know why because he probably got an instagram people started talking shit
because it's kind of fat. That's what made me want to lose weight
Really? Yeah, people talking shit. They were like, holy fuck. Did you eat your
whole cast?
You do look like you're losing weight though. You look pretty slim. I lost 21
pounds with our with our dear friend
John Jack Machado. Well, hey jiu-jitsu will peel that weight off. Yeah, that's
a fact. Yeah, that's some strenuous shit
You ever thought about doing jiu-jitsu locks? He's scared of me. He won't do it.
Oh
Let me tell you when I was growing up
I had I had friends that did wrestling had friends that did kickboxing all
these different
Mediums and you know, we would always practice with them whether it's wrestling
whether it's
kicking whether it's doing whatever play fighting you did all that stuff
Yeah, yeah, because everybody always wants to test the boxer right and say well,
you know
How does he fear up against a karate guy? How's he fear up against a kickbox?
How's he fear up against a
MMA guy? Yeah, they always fare financially better
So, uh, you know for for me, I didn't really throw my weight around like that
You know, it's like don't mess with me. Okay, if you mess with me something's
gonna happen
And then they don't really mess with me. I kind of carry myself like that,
right?
Because i'm so serious at sometimes like, you know, they can take they can
sense the seriousness of it
Serious but still easy going. So there's no reason to push you right?
I'm silent but violent. Oh, I like that
silent silent but violent
It is an interesting thing though about about fighters is that you're when you
think of exercise you think of exercises
You're preparing for a big violent event. Yeah, whereas for most people they
just don't want to be fat
They want to look good. They want to get in shape and you know
It's a lot of people on instagram. They're just working out really hard every
day, but there's no reason
Right, you had a reason. Yes. Yeah, so when the reason's gone. It's like, hmm
Now what how do I maintain this shape listen without maintaining that lifestyle?
Yeah, you think of another reason? Yeah
Oh, everybody like you you know, you look good by the way. Thanks. He does look
good
Lennox has seen me since I was 147 pounds
Really? You were 147 pounds at one point down when I first started boxing. I
was 147. How old were you? 15. Oh, okay
I met him probably when I was 16. Oh, really? Yeah, you guys have known each
other that long. Yeah
I know his parents. Yeah, wow and his and his mom and his brothers. Wow
We go back we're deep. That's crazy don't realize that it was like, you know, I
see him as a big star now
I've seen him in movies and commercials rescuing people
You know, I mean, I'm like yo, this is the kid
You know, he's grown up
He's on tmz
I literally used to sell him mixtapes in the 90s. He was already world champ
and I'd be playing the mixtapes
Yo, sell me that and I'm like, I just made it. He's like, I'll give you 20
bucks. I'm like
You just made a hundred million dollars. Can you give me a hundred bucks?
Yeah, well, you know, everybody was making tapes back then
Yeah, you remember those days where people are aggressively trying to sell
tapes on the streets?
Yeah, I wasn't even trying to sell it. I was just playing it in my car and he's
like, you know, he had the new shit going on
You know, that was he had the real shit. So I had to
Get a get it. I didn't I didn't have that contact to get the music
So he had the music contact. So a lot of people don't know russell's a legit dj
I reluctantly gave his mixtapes
Reluctantly
Yeah, it's good move
Um, when you know when you see him wrestling with people on tmz you see that
shit? We're wrestling with the jewel. I was trying to
I was trying to see what happened after he didn't throw no punches though
No, I was coaching. I was yelling good get his neck
If you watch it, you see I went for his arm to pull down to get his neck
Yeah
And then the other guy in front of him pulled him down and I couldn't get the
neck
Could you tell us what happened? I mean, all I seen was a guy walking out and
you grabbed him
No, if you watch it
Let's watch it on TNT
Okay, so here's what happened. Let me tell you what happens
I'm there looking at a ring, right?
Yeah
And that guy's sitting down
Earlier had checked to see if the door was open
He went out to spit and now he really he thinks the door's open
So now he thinks he's just gonna get up and walk away with this ring
This is where he makes his little move
And then they lock the doors and then i'm standing there i'm like what's going
on
And i'm like he takes a swing at my friend's father and then i go no no
I try to get his neck and that guy pulls him you see
There's a lot of opportunities at the neck there so no, but i'm trying he's a
big strong guy too
You got to go over the top
I was trying, but I had three layers on
I had a jacket a sweatshirt and a long sleeve shirt and that is an issue
And then uh, so then i try to go for the arm, but everybody sees everybody's in
my way
So i'm like give me the arm just let me get the arm move dad move dad
Amazing there you go
Who's the guy in the big chain?
Who's the guy in the big chain?
That's uncle david
And there i get i get the arm
Who's the guy with the backward baseball hat?
Now i'm pushing the arm down
And you'll see i lock the wrist here as soon as i lock the arm he says he says
okay
He stops moving right there he goes okay okay okay
Yeah
And i got the wrist you see the wrist popped?
Yeah a little wrist lock little steven seagal style
That was my fredson paishal lock
Oh there you go wrist locks are legit he got up again?
No no no this is just a different angle
Oh different
I want to know how far we was going to make with a ring
You see um you see that wall where my cousin is hiding?
Yeah
When he was trying to get out he whacked his head against that wall
Oh no
And uh and he cut his ear open
The the the thief?
Yeah
So whatever happened to him?
Uh he got arrested
Where was this in toronto?
No in new york city
No shit
Right in the jewelry district
Wow
So it's funny that they wouldn't that's what a like ill planned out move
Yeah
You don't think that they know that people grab things and run away?
Well there's that and he apparently this guy had been coming to the store for
six months scoping out scoping the place out
Oh, that's hilarious
I just coped it out poorly
But that's hilarious
Yeah, just silly
Do you have to go to court or anything with that?
I don't know I haven't heard anything since
Do you worry about that?
I mean I just put him in
All I was trying to do was hold him there because
Right
All the doors were locked
I'm like
It doesn't make sense to get into a scrap with the guy
If I could just put him in a choke hold or a lock then until the cops come
But the thing is like you could injure him
If you injure him then they sue you
Believe it or not
Really?
Yeah, as ridiculous as it sounds
How does that work?
Well Russell's not really a law enforcement officer
I could see if you had
I know but it would have been dangerous to everybody in the store if he was
running wild
True
Yeah
I mean look he's lucky you didn't crack him
Yeah
You know
I just locked him up and I said all right
As soon as I locked him up he goes okay
And I go okay good
And then he had one knee down and one leg up
And I kicked that leg out so he'd be on both knees
Look at you
Get rid of his base
That's right
I was trying to move his base
Move the base
Okay I got a question
Okay
Now if the whole thing happened again
How would you do things different?
I would have told everybody to get out of my way
So I can get him in a choke and hold him
Okay
Would you just put him to sleep?
Yeah
Just put him to sleep
Lay him down
Yeah lay him down
Tuck him in
You went back home and obviously feel good about yourself
And did you kind of run the whole thing through your mind a couple of times
like yo
This could have happened or what could happen in this situation?
No I started thinking after if he had a gun or if he had a knife
But I'm like if he had a gun he would have pulled it out right away
Wow
Yeah
Yeah
You know he's not here to surprise you with a gun
He's here to scare you with a gun
Well if there's that many dudes on him too good luck pulling that gun out
Yeah
Yeah
One of us would have got shot but probably in the foot or something
Probably not
You probably got real urgent if you saw him reaching for something
Yeah
It would have changed
Yeah I think knees to the head would have kicked
Everything
Everything
I know I watch a lot of karate movies
There's different things you could do
Like
Do you ever want to practice karate?
You ever like want to do something different?
That's why I was asking you about jujitsu
Yeah
Because you know when you're a world heavyweight champion boxer
After a while you're like what other shit can I learn?
I kept arm locking him when we were in England
I kept hugging him and putting him in an arm
You know great Bruce Lee fan
I love fighting movies
And you know martial arts has always been a part of my life
And I say that because every fight I fought
Before I fought that fight I watched a martial art movie
Really?
Yeah
Like what?
Like Chuck Norris, Bruce Lee, that kind of shit
Jackie Chan
Five Deadly Venoms
Oh the real shit
Yeah so you know those kind of movies
Carter Wong type stuff
You know
Yeah I like that
And that just got me in that mental state
Like you know
Do you watch MMA today?
Yeah
Do you ever watch it and go
If this was around when I was fighting
Would I do this?
The only thing I think about that
Because you know
Like I said
I was in the wrestling
And I did wrestling when I was younger
And boxing as well
So I didn't know they could combine them to
Until I got older
But you know
My focus was more on boxing
But you know
If they got paid a lot of money
I probably would have done it
You know
Yeah that's how a lot of people feel I think
I think like right now
The money's not quite there
It's not quite
It's for some people
Like Conor McGregor
Or Ronda Rousey
Right
But for the other folks
It's not
It's not enough to ge
