UFC 327 is coming in hot.

0:02.9

We got the PFL challenging the UFC at the same time.

0:06.8

That's huge for them.

0:08.0

I don't know if it's smart, but it is huge.

0:10.5

They're standing on business doing this.

0:12.7

This is very, very, very strange that they would decide to do this during negotiations for a new TV's rights deal. But they just want to see where they're at what do you think my man john morgan tuesday night lives that's what we're calling this john morgan and the i don't know if i want to call myself the punk i'm 48 years old man what are we doing these days but again i'm out here starting fights john morgan how you doing my man i'm good bro i mean a lot to talk about. First, let's just say if there's ever a good use of AI, I mean, it was that graphic that opened things up right there, right? I mean, there's AI slop out there, and then there's just absolute AI gold, and that was beautiful. And yes, normally I would say at your age, you shouldn't necessarily need to go by the pawn. But I see you out there in the streets, trying to make these fights come together.

0:57.2

I see these out there in the streets trying to make these fights come together. I see these headlines. We just talked about last week, Josh, we're going to be kinder. We're going to be more positive. We're going to be putting good energy into the world. And then there's the headlines coming out. You know as well as I know, man. it's hard to take the fighter out of us. Us true OG dog fighters, old school guys, we didn't do it for the money. You know, I mean, like, I'm not out there suing dudes in the street, right? They come in, you know, and when they say it's on site, it means it's on site. But like I don't, like I said, I don't, I have nothing about respect for naked got up the respect especially for his brother we came up on the same cards together

1:31.1

everything like that it means it's on site but like i don't like i said i don't i have nothing but respect for naked

1:27.8

not the respect especially for his brother we came up on the same cards together everything like that

1:31.8

for the same area man but you you brought me up and you know the conversation i brought you up a

1:37.1

bunch of times because we were talking about fights and it is what it is man but i mean i got another one

1:42.2

i got another quote tomorrow i'm dropping as well so look there's a lot out there like i said man if you want the fight you have your people call my people they got the number they've been chatting before we got it going there's no reason to hide around it so look uh listen i talked enough about nate yesterday if you guys haven't seen the clip i dropped it yesterday and uh guys can check it it out and go from there. It's on the, it's on the wiening and YouTube channel. So outside of that, man, I'm looking forward to this show right now. UFC 327, I would say on paper, it's probably the best card of the year. Oh, I love that you're starting with that because I was just going to get your take on this because here's what I'm thinking about this card, Josh, is a casual fan or whatever might just take a quick look at it and say, oh, I don't know, it's not that good.

2:26.4

But when you look at the matchups themselves on paper, the storylines, how closely contested they are, what it means for everybody in there. I really,

2:35.2

really like this card. And it really got me thinking about a little bit, you know, sometimes when we sit back and we talk about, is this a good card, is this not a good card? Are we really looking at the same things? And I feel like sometimes it's only like, hey, is Connor McGregor on there or is Ilya on there.

2:51.1

And if so, it's a good card.

2:52.5

And if not, it's not.

2:54.3

This to me is a really, really good card. So I love that you're coming out of the gates saying it's the best card of the year. This is what we do, man. We're nerds this way. We love these, we love these fight cards. And I got to be honest, man, people, I think people are underestimating Carlos

3:10.0

Olberg and people, I think the expectation is, you're going to come out, he's going to

3:16.2

just kind of baffle him with his movement, he's going to like catch him slipping.

3:20.0

And as the fight goes on, he's going to take down control Oberg on the ground, fight's going

3:23.5

to slip away from him, all of these things.

3:26.8

But at the end of the day, Yuri Pachasca has not gotten any better since being in the UFC. He's still the same really unorthodox style guy. Not much has changed except he's been knocked out a couple times. That's it. Like there's not, you have to find, if, if, if Oberg is just patient with him in front of him and pick and he was picking and he starts to pick and choose his shots, I think he has success. He, because let's not pretend like Yuri, some great wrestler. He's not an All-American. He's not, he doesn't come from a wrestling background. He only got takedowns against Glover to Chera as the fight went on and got tired.
