Summary

As it stands right now, it's the perfect time to examine how's next for Dustin Poirier. So let's do exactly that. If you're wondering about Khabib's back and forth about retiring, let's look to "The Office" for a point of reference. Then there's Dan Hooker's interview. If it was intentionally funny or not, was brutally honest and spoke volumes. Finally,  Kamaru Usman spoke up and in doing so, directly impacts his legacy. Presented by: Athletic GreensProduced in Association with Springfield Media  Our Sponsors:* Check out Shopify and use my code chael for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com* Check out Shopify and use my code chael for a great deal: https://www.shopify.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you feel when you switch to Geico and save on your car insurance? It's like going to work

0:05.2

on one Thursday morning and thinking to yourself just one more day until Friday. But then somebody

0:11.3

in the elevator says, happy friday. Then you check your phone quickly and discover today is

0:16.7

actually Friday. So yes, happy friday, random stranger in the elevator. Happy Friday indeed.

0:24.1

Yep, switching and saving with Geico feels just like that. Get more with Geico.

0:36.0

What's happening, guys?

0:37.6

Happy Wednesday!

Joe Rogan came out and picked Michael Chandler to beat Connor McGregor. That's a headline. I didn't see it. I didn't click on it. A little bit surprising. Rogan doesn't usually jump involved in those things. And it seems as though he must have been offering something. I mean, he must have just been offering because it's not as though that's a fight that's on the table. It's not as though that's a fight that will ever be on the table in the short term. You don't take the guy that

1:14.1

just won and put him against the guy that just lost. I mean, you know what I'm saying? So I feel like Rogan kind of went out there a little bit. Kind of stuck himself out there, but it does make me go, well, let me do the same thing. Let's take, let's take a look at that fight. I would pick

1:10.7

Chandler as well to beat McGregor.

1:29.3

I would do that on the guys that Chandler is a multiple time all-American wrestler and that he could

1:35.9

take Connor down and keep him there the same way as we saw Khabib do, just for an example.

1:40.9

I wouldn't be overly bullish on that. I would not tell you to go part with all of your money for that bet, but I would pick Chandler in the fight. So I tend to agree

1:49.4

with Rogan there. However, I'm more speaking to the phenomenon, the very short-term memories that

1:55.0

we have, to base somebody's career, and we all do it. I'm guilty of it too. But we will base

2:00.3

somebody's career in Connor's case based on seven minutes of fighting. We will base it on seven minutes of action. And it's one of those things had Connor beaten Porier. There's no way Rogan is picking Chandler to beat him, at least not to just offer it out of the blue, a mythical fight. And I don't think that many of you would either. It's just we saw

2:18.3

Connor, who has appeared invincible at times, to be very invincible, to come out, I mean,

2:24.3

open, beat twice, beat three different ways. He got beaten the takedown department, he got his leg

2:29.3

beat to death and he got knocked out, beat three different ways, but you're still basing an opinion

2:33.9

on seven minutes

2:34.7

of action. And I've been very quick to say that I accept Connor's reason. I don't look as an excuse,
