| 0:00.0 | All right guys, we're at the Apex man. It's been a long day. We grinded in. |
| 0:10.1 | Grind and grind but obviously we got to hit the big news. John Jones, Steve Bay and |
| 0:18.0 | the coaches official. It's official. They will fight at Madison Square |
| 0:22.8 | Garden later in the year for the heavyweight championship for the world. You know, |
| 0:28.2 | right after John fought in March, we kind of expected this to be the match. We |
| 0:34.0 | thought that we would get it this weekend at International Fight. We would now |

| 1:32.4 | it's still going to be tough to fight John Jones. But when I watch Jones in that |
| 1:39.4 | fight against Cyril, he didn't look as good as he usually does. He wasn't as |
| 1:46.3 | fast. You know what I said that a little bit. But in this matchup he's going to have to be. |
| 1:50.2 | You know, I thought that the time to beat John Jones in heavyweight was in his |
| 1:56.9 | first fight because it was so unfamiliar and unknown to him. But now that he's |
