0:00.0 | It was good. It's the one and only MVP and I'm here doing room service diaries. |
0:05.5 | Luke and Brian actually met them. I believe in Vegas. You know, honestly, I didn't know who it was going to be. |
0:15.0 | When I saw them just now, I was like, oh man, that's cool. It's going to be you guys. Love the guys. Love the energy. |
0:19.5 | I was raised on like, if you make one mistake in school and a mistake could be wearing the wrong shoes and you're getting ripped the whole day. |
0:25.5 | Alright, here we go. We are joined by one of the most unique MMA fighters really in the world. Certainly in the Walter Way division. |
0:35.0 | He's got a big fight coming up, which just got announced today. We were bouncing through London BC. We like, we can't stop in London without talking to one of London's finest. |
0:43.0 | MV Pizzle MVP Michael Venom Page. How are you sir? |
0:47.0 | I'm good, man. Pleasure to be here. We're in your neighborhood. Not really, but more or less. Definitely like I said, this London is small. |
0:56.0 | As long as it takes ages to get across London, London in general is small. I go everywhere. |
1:01.0 | Do you like London? |
1:02.0 | Yeah, and I do. There's a lot that I don't like. That's more political talk. So I leave that, but in general London is a great sea. |
1:09.0 | I was told you off camera. I'd been here in 19 years. Yeah, you said it looks great. Yeah, there's some cities like you leave and you come back five or ten years later. |
1:17.0 | Yeah, shit kind of went to hell, but no, London looks good. There's always a new developments and new buildings and things going up all the time. |
1:24.0 | So it's always tough to do here. |
1:27.0 | It's sort of a broader question, but like we had an event last night. We met a bunch of MMA fans. We've been for a few days. We talked a bunch of fighters. |
1:34.0 | It feels like MMA is big here and is doing really well, but it feels like there's so much untapped potential. |
1:42.0 | 100%. It's still weirdy enough. I think what it is over here in the UK, there's still a bit more of a boxing country. |
1:50.0 | So they favor more the boxes. They favor, you know, and even that is weird, even down to like a sponsorship. |
1:56.0 | So for myself, trying to get sponsorship, especially on the way up, it's difficult because people used to kind of turn their nose up at MMA. |
2:03.0 | So as much as they watched it, as much as they knew who I was and as much as they kind of knew a couple of key fighters, it was still kind of like, it's a bit too brutal for our company. |
2:12.0 | So it's definitely slowly coming out of that, but yeah, it's not quite there yet. |
2:19.0 | But getting the very small taste I've got of British culture here and the attitude of people in there, they seem like it's not like they would get caught up on the stereotype of cage fighting or anything like that. |
