It's time for Carolla and Mayhem.

Game on.

All right.

Mayhem.

What's going on in the world of combat sports and beyond?

In the world of sports with the bad online show today.

Look, I think I told you last week that Ilya Tuporia is moving up to 155.

He has already declined a fight with Armand Surukian.

Now, look, I know this is like some weird inside sports type thing where it's like, okay, so the guy goes up from 45 to 55, you'd think that they'll put whatever in front of them.

But no, they're just suddenly saying he's got like the juice, you know, to be able to kind of pick his fights right now.

And yeah, people were asking him about fighting Armantzarukian, who's kind of a grappled dude

and, like, would maybe give him some trouble taking him down.

But nah, he says he's looking to, like, fight for the title already.

It's a very strange thing.

I don't know what Dana's going to say about this, but he's already

like shut down the possibility of fighting with Armand.

Now, he's not saying, he's not going to go, I don't want to fight him because I'm scared

or I think he might win. I'm not going to find him because I don't think fans want to see it.

It's not going to make an exciting fight. That's the strategy.

Whatever it is. But you find them because I don't think if fans want to see it, it's not going to make an exciting fight, you know, whatever it is.

But you think mostly when guys don't want to fight other guys, it's because they don't, they see something that's not favorable to them.

I think so.
