it starts there's something else that happens outside of fighting yeah as you
as your popularity
gets bigger you're not doing it but it happens to you yeah yeah you just find
yourself in that
position somehow right yeah and i'm happy for it too because i'm busy all the
time before it would
just be fights then downtime and then hope to get a fight again start training
camp now it's like
i have stuff planned as soon as this fight's over i have other things going on
and it's it's good
busy is good but like i said it's just i'm so thin my mind is always thinking
about something
non-stop that's crazy yeah i don't like the other day i was driving i'm like
who the fuck even is this
guy anymore yeah damn dude well shit well then i guess i don't know i got i don't
know if i can uh
hit up my bookie and take my money off of dustin fourier or not dude but if you
swipe up now you
we'll match your first deposit though what's your code dustin okay good i might
have to get in and
wager on it um dude it's pretty crazy to think that two white guys are now
going to the middle east to
fight each other it seems pretty crazy you know yeah right um very white what
would y'all do for
new year's man new year's we actually got a hotel room down here in deerfield
beach okay and uh it's
probably about 10 minutes from my condo just to break it up you know i've been
here since um let me
think big beginning of november so training camp just training going to the
back to my condo going
to the gym back to my condo it's just i needed to break it up and okay i
thought new year's was a
good idea to just get a hotel room get out of my condo and uh take a morning
off did you it was you
and your wife did you go with the kiddo yeah yeah me my wife and my daughter oh
nice yeah now and this
is personal you'll have to answer it and uh but do you is there like a do you
put a stop on the
intimacy of y'all's relationship if you hadn't into a fight like do you fight i
hear that about fighters
no i've always heard that about boxing and stuff they say it takes your legs
away or or whatnot but
dude i've i've came and knocked people out and i've not came and knocked people
out too so i don't
really believe in it damn damn i wonder if i'd rather have a guy who's already
recently
ejaculated yeah knock me out or a guy that's full of knock me out you know
yeah i guess they're all different i guess it's different yeah yeah
uh i don't feel it i don't i don't believe in the in it takes your legs away i
don't think you don't
nah i don't think wow so that's never really been a thing in your head where
you're like okay
when i was younger i used to i used to you did yeah you know i was watching
fightville and if
you uh if you want to get amped up for anything if you want to end up spray
painting a building if
you want to fight somebody whatever you want to do arson if you go watch fightville
dude you will
be freaking pumped for it yeah um when you watch that do you still relate to
that to that dustin
poirier like it's you're getting you're you're growing up yeah the last time i
watched it was a
few years ago but just sitting there why i feels it feels like such a long time
ago and i'm such a
different person and go about fighting and and the thoughts of preparing for a
fight so much
different and man it really feels like a different world when i'm watching it i
know it's me i'm
watching i remember going through all the things in the videos but it's just so
different man so
dude they shot it so well yeah it took forever to shoot really it probably took
three years to shoot
wow and they have so much fights and footage that aren't even didn't even make
it to it
the problem was um the guy who was filming it lived in new york with his family
and he would just come
down periodically whenever he saw a time in his in his schedule to shoot and he'd
come down for three
months here a month here so it took a really long time to film the whole thing
damn yeah yeah they
shot it i was looking they shot it through the cage almost as if they were
watching animals a lot of
times like in some way you know what i'm saying the the way it looked like yeah
very uh yeah like you
said like animals tribal very tribal yeah it just had like a i felt like i was
watching uh
you know like i remember at lsu they used to have those videos of mike the
tiger all the time they'd
shoot them just kind of going through the cage you know or doing something yeah
and uh it just
reminded me of that but and r.i.p to the to the lion i'm sorry the tiger at the
truck stop right there
oh yeah oh yeah did he die again dude i i mean one time i think is the limit
that's true bro wow
cats have nine lives maybe you're right that's true but louise yeah they got a
camel there did you
hear about this uh-uh yeah you know a truck stop i'm talking about tiger truck
stop right right off
the uh the basin bridge oh i don't even know if i've been there yeah dude on
the chafalaya bridge
right between baton rouge and lafayette yeah they had the tiger truck stop and
they had a real tiger
yeah and a camel took his job yeah oh yeah unbelievable but the camel camel
recently bit
somebody oh yeah yeah yeah yeah bro that's a louisiana camel bro dude because i
think they
made the camel quit smoking cigarettes right right he's having some withdrawals
um dude when you watch
uh what's going to be different you think like heading into this fight what do
you think could
be different about it dude every every fight's different whether it's the same
opponent like this
as a rematch or or a completely guy a different guy never fought before every
fight's so different
because i'm in a different place in my life in my my you know life's different
every fight so
just trying to learn and uh be smart moving forward you know not just in
fighting but in life just
trying to move with with strategy and not emotion man and that's that's the
that's my goal
i'm just sitting on your front porch wondering how could i be so far from my
home
and my mind is somewhere else but when i find it i'll patch up where it's been
blown
