| 0:00.0 | What's happening guys? Happy Friday! And thank you for joining another special episode |
| 0:12.7 | of your welcome guys. We are just hours away from UFC 262 and coming up on today's show. |
| 0:18.9 | I'll give you my official predictions for Tony Ferguson versus Benny D'Arruch and Charles |
| 0:24.7 | Oliveira versus Michael Chandler. But before we get there, I promise you guys on Wednesday that if |
| 0:30.7 | you wrote me in questions on my YouTube channel that I'd potentially ask them to today's guest, |
| 0:36.4 | Jake Paul. He's one of the most polarizing figures in combat sports right now. So why not begin |
| 0:42.7 | here first? Here's my conversation with Jake Paul. Jake Paul can't box, Jake Paul can't compete |
| 0:52.2 | and Jake Paul can't beat Ben Asgrit. Are things that I used to think and speaking of, |
| 0:58.5 | let me talk to the man Jake Paul. What's going on pal? What up boss? How are you man? I like this too. |
| 1:04.8 | Looking sharp. Looking real sharp. You know what? I appreciate you saying that. I don't see color |
| 1:09.0 | real well and I even went with the hanky. I took a few risks today man and I'm not a real risk |

| 1:19.6 | you're not a real risk taker man. You didn't want to back me for this fight. I was watching all the |
| 1:26.4 | all the YouTube videos every single one of them. Well, I hope in hindsight you see it as a compliment |
| 1:32.4 | because you don't get a whole lot of times in life to surprise people. You surprised me but you |
| 1:38.0 | surprised a lot of people. I mean, Dana's on that list. Asgrin's on the entire 2008 Olympic team |
| 1:43.6 | is on that list. You surprised a lot of people. By the way, you did it pretty quick. Thank you man. |
| 1:48.6 | Yeah, I mean, I knew that was what was going to happen. Like I said at the whole entire time, |
| 1:53.6 | I said first or second round and I think at this point, you know, people are starting to realize |
| 1:58.4 | that what I'm saying in these pre-fight buildups comes to fruition every single time and it's not |
| 2:05.1 | by luck or by chance. And so I love when people are doubting me, it just adds fuel to my fire |
| 2:12.2 | and it motivates me more. And I have the ace up my sleeve. Like that's what people don't get here. |
