What's up, everyone?

Welcome to another episode of the Wayne Inn podcast.

I'm joined today by my man, Dustin Poy, the, man, let me just ask you a question. How long is it going to take me to finally get you on here? It's been what? About a year now? Bro, we're kind of playing tag a little bit chasing me around, but I'm here. We're here. We made it happen. Oh, Memorial Day, too. I know, I know. It's weird, man. I felt bad. I was like,'re here we made it happen on Memorial Day too I know I know it's

weird man I felt bad I was like man can you get you on this week can we get you on this week you're like how about on Monday I'm like it's Memorial day you know that you're like yeah absolutely we can do it though for sure man yeah lightweight champ brother you and I've been friends for a long time and I know we see each other in passing, you know, but we had a, I tell people a lot of, I tell people all the

time, I said, but we had a, I tell people a lot of,

I tell people all the time. I said, there was a moment where I went out and I trained with you at Frankie Eggers. And I talk about how big you were, how great you were, how, how damn, how impressive you were to me back then and how young you were at the time. But man, I can't brag enough about you man you're one're one of my all-time favorite fighters, and I know you fought two of my teammates, and I just, but I just ultimately

want to say, man, like, you're one of my all-time favorite fighters, man. And I'm not gaslighting you, but I'm just being honest with you, man, like I love, I always knew what I was going to get when I tuned in to watch you fight is I was going to get someone that stood in front of you.

You did a little bit of movement here and there, but you're like, no, you were a true

fighter and it, we don't see those. We don't see them as much anymore these days. But you are that. Thank you, man. I appreciate it. I pride myself on that. Dude, I went in there to finish my opponent or to be to be finished. know i put myself in harm's way there was a

fight every time i fought and uh but thank you for saying that but you man you're the legend bro

i'm a fan of you for a long time we just we had those moments when you're talking about when you're

talking about how we trained a long time ago you should put some emphasis on how you whip my ass

nah you're the biggest 145 pounder,

and I tell people this.

I'm like,

this guy was so big.

You were like 181, 180, something like that. Probably so, yeah, probably. It was like 172. I was like, and when Frankie told me that you fought at 145, I was like, there's no way. Like, there's no way that I talked to you.

And you're like, yeah, I fight at 145.

I was like, this is insane to me how big you were.

And you were so talented.

You were giving me such fits because of your South Paul stance, you had the power. You had great wrestling, take down defense as well. And I was like, damn, this dude can do everything. And then I just remember Rogan used to tell me how big I was for lightweight that I stood next to you. I was like, there's just no way, man.

Yeah, I was at 45. I had a great time when Frankie brought me in for that month, month and a half, staying in New Jersey, dude, that was like an eye-opener for me to see the way a former world champion does his camp and stuff. That was, you know, I soaked in the whole trip. It was great for me. Frankie came out to AKA before he got his title run and he had his first couple of fights in the UFC.
