JRE MMA Show #13 with Rose Namajunas & Pat Barry

and we're live what's up oh nothing thanks for doing this appreciate it yeah
thanks for having
me i like how you dressed very casual look like yeah it's all about comfort
these days like part
like monk like there's like a lot of monk like to what you got the shaved head
and the wooden beads
and the whole deal yeah yeah i mean i kind of decided that like ever since
cutting my hair
that uh i don't know i'm just gonna do away with like not being like not being
comfortable in any
area so heels um you're gonna have to pay me to do that really yeah i don't
know it's just uh
i'm not a big fan of heels because i can't run away in them that's good i think
that's why they
made them yeah it only makes sense like girls wearing tight skirts where your
legs are constricted
right yeah or tight dresses that go down to your knees especially yeah those
things are that's like
a thing where girls can like barely walk you have heels your your toes are down
it's like the opposite
of being strong it's like you're very vulnerable right very vulnerable yeah
like um i don't know
if it's just because of like the way i grew up but i was always like looking
over my shoulder like
anytime i was walking down the wrong alley i was always uh you know ready to
scope out the area
you know just run and be able to run i think everybody's like that though right
i mean especially
girls you should be yeah i mean just me in particular just because i was the
only girl that looked like
myself i was the smallest all the time or youngest or like the only white girl
on my block so it was
always like uh i stood out and um so yeah i like to i like to be safe that's
smart yeah or be able to
like you know throw a kick in these pants yeah those were those like sweatpants
or something what do you
got on uh these are called harem pants harem pants yeah let me see get up there
with that oh they're
crazy they're like they got cool designs on them what are those designs um i
don't really know but
they're super comfy and i got um they came off this website called harempants.com
or something like
that and what are the wooden beads about so this is um this is a i got it from
a friend uh cassie rob
who's also a fighter she's my teammate um back at home and she uh she gave it
to me leading up to
the fight with yoana and uh just for some strength and courage i think this is
supposed to
like give you like some type of confidence or whatever yeah it's just like an
energy beat i don't
know if it really like i mean i guess it works but if you believe it works it
works exactly yeah that's
kind of how i always feel about it's like a placebo effect right yeah i gotta
tell you that your victory
speech after you beat yoana was my all-time favorite because it wasn't even
just about you or about
the fight it wasn't about anything it was just you expressing yourself pat what
are you doing over
there you all right checking out this uh okay yeah no uh i just think that um
uh it was an awesome
yeah victory speech it was really amazing it was uh you were you know you were
just spilling your
heart out and it was in your your moment to shine and in your moment to shine
you you didn't make it
about you i think i fight better that way you know when i'm i'm you know it's
always about me like
throughout the training camp like everybody like my coaches and teammates they're
always you know
helping me and it's just it gets to be a bit much sometimes you know and i want
to um i want to help
other people um it fills my spiritual cup more um you know your spiritual cup
yeah um i think that you
you know i've uh you know if you if your hands close to to give you know you
can't be open to receive
kind of thing and um i think that um the more that i can give to people the
more that i can get myself
you know and i think that um you know just like plants and animals the way you
know if you look at
nature everything is a symbiotic relationship i think that um humans can be the
same way that's an
interesting way of looking at things have you always looked at things like that
no uh uh i shouldn't
say not always but i always was a person that you know wanted to be outside
wanted to be in nature
i grew up in a like urban jungle in milwaukee and just concrete everywhere you
know no place to go
outside except for you know just playing in the alleys and stuff but uh um my
my lineage is from
lithuania where they're like very in tune with nature and they're pagans and
like slash christian
and uh so they really you know just just my whole family you know they come
from living off the land
and stuff like that and so that's always been something i wanted to do um i'll
just put in a
situation you know just to you know try and do martial arts and trying to like
uh you know
i guess control my emotions and stuff just living in this you know chaotic
environment that i grew up in
and um nature is where i felt the most peace at so that's always something that
i connected with
and then the more that i kind of uh focus on nature and uh animals and stuff
like that i noticed that
you know there's a i don't know i try to live my life the same way well it's
just interesting leading
up to that fight too that you are kind of like the antidote to a lot of the
things that people are
getting annoyed at in mma all the trash talking and all the negativity and all
the like fighting at press
conferences and you just shut all that down with joanna i mean there needs to
be balance you know
it's like i mean i i like entertainment you know i'm not i i you know i should
talk sometimes too you
know right but uh i there just has to be a balance you know it has to be honest
too like if you really
feel this way about somebody like if you're really upset with this person yeah
say how you feel but like
don't just go out of your way just to be entertaining because you think it's
going to be funny or something or you
think it's just going to be like it's not genuine you know right right but it
was just the way you
handled yourself like because her whole thing is talking her whole thing is scaring
people i'm the
boogie woman coming to get you yeah you know all that stuff and you were just
dead faced and i think
that her head up i really do uh you ever see that video of like the what was
that video
about how to humble a bully not that one the one you just showed me earlier was
like is this dude
like standing in front of an elephant oh yeah and he like started charging at
him and then he was
like calm you know and he just stood there yeah that guy got lucky very lucky
he got lucky that elephant
really didn't want to trample him yeah we just watched that uh elephant is
coming through in his
like yeah i've seen the river run yeah just stands there in one spot and it
stops that guy got lucky
but yeah i think that don't try that at home no yeah no yeah that's a different
thing obviously
because you're talking about an animal right right um but it's just i think it's
a good analogy to
to draw from like yoana's energy she was very like chaotic and very um in my
face and very threatening
intimidating yeah and like yeah don't go out of your way to stand in front of
an elephant that's running
at you like that don't put yourself in that position but i i had to be there
that's my job you know so
um so when you're in those situations where you like you don't know what to do
you know you just
stay calm yeah well you didn't just stay calm you stayed eerily calm and you
were like reciting the
lord's prayer when i asked you that i was like whoa i was like what are you
saying over there
you're like i'm reciting the lord's prayer like yeah yeah honestly because like
the whole uh the whole
training camp was just crazy but like that week in particular like i was
convinced that
this might be my last fight this might be my last day on earth like i i was so
just like ready for
anything at that point you know why were you thinking there might be your last
fight i don't
know if i'm crazy i don't know um just because uh i don't know i think i
started to think that almost
like every fight is because it's uh crazy way to make a living yeah yeah it's
tough um but it's the
best thing in the world especially the the all of the all of the the stressors
that came along with
this fight in particular right especially all of those like extra press and
then we have but we've
had a in that fight we had we had a few like kind of i don't want to say
magical moments but say for
instance uh we bring mishka with us everywhere we go um your dog yeah our
flight was delayed three
hours four hours and when we landed we landed like a few hours after that truck
drove through the park and
killed all the people in new york which was right by our hotel which if we
would have been there on time
we would have filled signed the posters and then been outside at the park
walking misha so i mean
just little things like like that like we would have been outside maybe at that
spot and had been
witness to that thing or at least would have heard it or something you know and
that would affected me
you know and um the antifa march yeah and there is just all this stuff about
you know like people
are going to be protesting and stuff like that and they even like the day of
the fight and i just get
a lot of anxiety over that stuff i get anxiety over like big crowds of people
and it's like
you know this feels like crazy yeah um you know and it's uh yeah i just i i
wasn't even just thinking
about the fight with yoana it was more than that you know it was like whatever
what all her energy
represented to me like all my past like um just negative people that you know
uh you know want to
want to strike fear into your heart you know and um i wasn't gonna let that
happen even though i was
scared but you know i just uh i wasn't gonna stop doing what i was doing just
because of that but you
were like eerily focused like one time she stuck her fist in your face and
touched your face you
didn't even move yeah because i know she needed a reaction from me you know it's
just like um it's
just like with anybody you know if you don't give energy to something negative
you don't feed the fire
you know yeah that's gotta be a mindfuck for her though right because she's so
used to people reacting
to her and head butting but you know going head to head with her and trying to
show her and you just
stayed calm yeah because i mean you know it's it's uh either you really i mean
it's either one of two
things either you really dislike me enough to like you know put your hands on
me outside of the
competition or it's fake you know or it's a character or you're just doing this
for show right you know
it's either one of the two and i just don't think she's really a bad person i
just think that you know
she's put in this position and maybe she you know that's what she felt like she
had to do well i wrote
something about the vulcan ozdemir daniel cormier fight the other day that what
ozdemir was trying to
do and what cormier was trying to do it's like they're trying to sow seeds of
doubt that you're
trying to there's a real issue with someone that's about to fight where you're
about to compete and
it's this crazy nerve-wracking thing and the unknown is always there you don't
know what's going to
happen right so if someone can convince you i'm going to you up you're like god
damn is he going to
me up yeah you really start thinking it if you if it's in your head and that
one of the things that
daniel said in that fight was that there's there's levels to this thing like
you think you're going to
come in and fuck me up this is crazy this he's not you you're not you you haven't
experienced this yet
right and that's just something that i you know i i i uh have a lot of respect
for you want to still
you know and i think it's great that i was put in this position to face her
because i had to get
better in order like i had to uh get up to that level you know to face her and
i had to uh do a lot
of research and uh work on m
