Summary

On today’s episode, I react to what we saw this past weekend at UFC Saudi Arabia, including my issue with Michael ‘Venom’ Page being the underdog in his win over Shara ‘Bullet’ Magomedov, and why I don’t envy the position that Israel Adesanya finds himself in after losing to Nassourdine Imavov. Plus, Dana White said he will explore other options if they can’t make Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall happen, even though I don’t believe Jones has officially been offered that fight yet. Then, why I should’ve begun investing in TKO earlier. And finally, did Khabib Nurmagomedov give Conor McGregor PTSD? And why is McGregor attacking fellow countryman Paul Hughes? Gambling problem?

0:12.7	your welcome. Coming up on today's show, we're going to talk everything that happened with
0:16.9	Audasanya, everything that happened with Sharia Bullitt, everything that should be happening
0:23.2	that I'm going to share with you today. In fact, let's begin here.
0:33.7	Sharra Bullitt. I'm not ready to let this go. I'm not ready to let this go.
0:39.4	I'm not ready to let this go.
0:42.5	This was such a... And everything's so clear in hindsight, isn't it?
0:45.8	Monday morning quarterbacking is very hard.
0:48.6	The difference over here is we talked about this a week ago.
0:51.3	We said this is a nightmare of a matchup.
0:53.0	I told you, go to my
0:54.5	partner's draft kings and take their money. They got Bullet as a favorite. And if you're
0:59.8	looking at it on paper, Bullet has never lost. MVP lost his last fight. Like, generally, those
1:06.5	numbers jump out. MVP is closer to 40. And Sharia Bollett is closer to 30. It's one of these things.
1:17.2	Those numbers jump off a page. But they were the wrong numbers. And Bullet has it for sure.
1:27.8	Bullet is a star.

1:39.7	We can all agree you could put him in a Hollywood movie right now.
1:43.9	We can all agree that when something
1:45.3	on social media pops up with him, we go watch it. We can all agree if you go to YouTube and
1:50.6	you watch the pieces the UFC put out when it's a piece with him, the numbers are higher, right?
