00:00Big fight coming up Jake Paul you know and also the Mike Tyson yeah who do you
00:07think has this one right here I mean who do you have your money on. It's a very even fight to be
00:11honest it's even because of the age of Mike Tyson in this in this okay I think
00:17it's an even fight because of the age of Mike Tyson he's completely obviously out
00:21of his prime when in his prime most of his fights were almost attempt to murder
00:26so literally Jake wouldn't have stood a chance nobody would even commission or
00:30sanction a fight against him and Mike Tyson and Jake's always on a win-win
00:35situation he's fighting guys that if he lose you lost it is guy you lost the
00:39time you lost the Anderson Silva lost to Nick Diaz or Nate Diaz so he's always
00:44in a position where if he wins he goes up if he loses it's like okay he took a
00:49risk he took a chance so I like the fight I'll be at the fight I was
00:53originally fighting on the card you can find a formidable opponent that made
00:57sense so now just to support the event and be a part of a big event in combat
01:02sports so what you're saying is you don't have a declared winner yet you're
01:06just like and you know what I'm glad I don't have to like sometimes when I
01:10commentate sometimes when I analyze I gotta have a strong who I think should
01:14win but I'm gonna watch and I'm gonna see who's gonna win they're gonna go out
01:17there and do the work okay I mean and what about you for fighting right now I
01:20know a lot of people are talking about you getting back yeah what's going on
01:24you know what's funny is um I never I never retired I never left MMA I just
01:28took a break man I was an athlete from the age of 10 to 40 I needed a break man
01:32my mind is just always in kill mode wait did you just sorry did you just say 40
01:36because you don't yeah I'm 42 but I was an athlete non-stop from 10 years old
01:44to 40 years old with no break 30 years straight in pain and after I fought Jake
01:48a couple times I took a took a year just to travel just to go to concerts
01:52and just be normal and regular for a second no training I didn't train at all
01:56and then it was a whole year cap where everybody Floyd wanted to fight then he
02:00didn't want to fight then KSI wanted to fight then Manny Pacquiao wanted to fight
02:03those are big fights so you can't just evenly replace those fights so that was
