Let's get serious Thank you joe joe diesel rigs for joining us. Yes last week. We had a Q&A and then he canceled about 10 minutes before That fucking dying well, you could have let me know the night before I tried my hall was gotten the car Drag myself. I sort of got you saw the state of me would have been you for bastard Yeah, a little bit more notice always helps. I wasn't ready to call it in tell Okay, we got the great Tommy Mcmillan here Making his UFC debut April 4th and we're getting prepared We're prepared to kill to kill and it's going to be brutal diesel. How was your sickness? What was your symptoms if there was any

God damn it. It was the it was like a normal flu, but it just way worse. I couldn't get out of bed Every injury I had like my man in my back of my ankle. They just throbbing like a fucking bottle Just boom, I just like to film my heartbeat in it. It was just hurting sounded like a little COVID-19. Oh fuck fuck that Yeah No, no, no, not that but it was it put me down and I just that my first I've never been in bed for that long I was fucking starting to freak out and have a hard time with it a lot of people got it That's what you said. I'll I'd be I'd be I'd be surprised somebody had his bad side. I did really Okay, well we're back. What'd you do? Do you watch a show? Would you eat soup? No, just me it took good care of me. I just fucking finished up. Why watch the entire fucking entire seasons of the office again Are you one of those guys who's just a big pus when you're sick? Yeah, I always say my tummy. Oh Yeah, I actually I would say I'm not I'm not well That's what I say and then if they I'll be honest if I if they don't tend to me Goodbye, I can't deal with I will if I'm not you know because that that is it

That's a problem that I have admittedly, but it's not gonna go away And I need to be fussed over I do I got some embarrassing, but yeah And when they're sick do you get them soups for sure? I'm yeah, I'm a very good partner. I must say I really yep save the beard if they need Hold down here Okay, this weekend head now tomorrow. Well, I'm I'm there now. I'm there now. I'm in Montana now as you're listening to this My boy Bushito Berserio Leo Berserio. Oh great falls Montana legend. He's having his first show Wednesday night So I'm gonna go help him Commentate for that and then Friday morning driving to Missoula and I got three soldiers fighting in Missoula, Montana in the Adam Center, so that should be a good time one guy's making his pro debut And then two other guys are have some tough fights coming up So I'm excited to go there maybe because you fly in Friday, Joe. So I'll I'll I'll be there and then maybe we could go to get a nice to great falls or Missoula Missoula nice. Fuck yeah, Missoula a nice dinner or something in Missoula on Friday

Nice. Fuck yeah. What place to usually go down in Missoula to eat there's a bunch of good places There's a bunch of really good places. Maybe Saturday Walk into the old Stockman's bar really they have a nice jakers down there They do have a jakers. I would rather go somewhere else than jakers though. I turned his nose up at it Yeah, the old Stockman's bar where I used to be a bouncer Really? You ever gotten a gun fights down there? No, not too bad not too bad I think we've talked about that before but this weekend we uh went to the wrath and boy was it good? It was good. It was sick that the amount of kids it were that were in the stands That were inspired. I've never heard Sean say fuck dude. I want to wrestle and he's got this whole new wrestling motivation I'm like we've been to sick wrestling matches before We've been at like collegiate matches that are sweet, but there's just wrath puts on the show There's lights. There's music. It's pumping. They're the the crowd was sold out And he's just like I love this sport out. I love this sport He's in your doing down blocks hitting straws and sprawls. You see him Tom. I saw like what got into this guy

Little sticks flying. No, I don't even I've wrestled my whole life But I've never been a fan of watching or anything and even I tuned into that and then I was telling you and I came in here I was like bro, I want to I want to get in there and do that. That it looks fine So yeah, we got to knock this little butterball out and then uh knock the next guy out and then we get you a wrath match Out with a couple guys out and then but they're making it a show and it's not some boring shit where it's like every three matches They go to intermission it takes 40 minutes between a match They run it really quick and every match is such a sack max match Olympic champion versus a national champion versus Starverse star They're not doing the team stuff. It's just individuals Um, yeah, just individuals and it's not like boxing like you said where they have a podcast in between each fight That's good. Yeah, it's not so fucking annoying like that. We ended up seeing Mirab Mirab and his team and everything was fine. Everything was good They had a buddy on the card and then Mirab versus Henry when we were walking out of the arena We kind of rushed out of the arena. Sean was really rushing. I mean, he's gets anxiety around a lot of people and

Henry was after his match. Sean, Sean God fucking pussy He said that. I heard that when I Went up and slapped that little midget if I was there. I would have on god I like that kind of shit. You talk shit to me and my team. You go see that's that. That's a kind of fucking nuts I wish I wish I wouldn't would have would have been hanging out because it could have built for something a big because I know He is wanting to wrestle in that wrath. So And that that match will happen eventually eventually your eye made it a close match 46 year old Your eye. I mean, it wasn't super close, but his stance was so staggered and he wasn't moving his feet at all He was like just giving Henry those low singles So easy. Did he wrestle like that in college? Is that something that's changed over time with him? Who? Oh, you're right I don't know if he wrestled in college. He didn't he wrestle. I think he just made the problem is sure We'd have to move up to middleweight to be at the same weight classes Henry nowadays. Yeah Yeah, little torta When his coach says his coach was getting a little pumped up himself. I guess so I didn't hear that

I didn't hear that saying he's gonna make come back captain That guy's always saying some fucking horse shit, bro I would have died to be a fly in the wall when Henry canned him Watch for how he probably just threw himself about his house. You can watch it. It was on UFC countdown Not when when they keep out the cameras are off. He probably hit his knees For sure No, I want uh, what's his name? Um, who's who's uh, Mirab's coach. It's usually in his car. Oh that Asian guy. No, uh Al Jo's coach Ray Longo. I want Ray Longo. Oh shit. I want Ray Longo. Ray Longo is barely standing up That's what I want him Oh, that's good. He pins me. Yeah, he snapped me in the front headlock burr cage He runs this big old burial and nipples in your mouth as he puts you on your back

He does he looks like he's got some fat nips on him too. Yeah Our boy Bryce Meredith wrestled and fucking damn near pinda national champion like he put him on his back I jumped up and I was squealing But I didn't know there was like literally five seconds left. Uh, what would he put him on his back with? The kid almost finished a shot on him a single leg and he just kind of hipped over and put him on his back And it was so sweet. Uh, the whole card was so fucking sick every single match was so badass Armand vs. Georgio was badass. Georgio looked jack May may or may not be on a few supplements. Definitely is And what he he wrestled in Ohio. That's why I'm not sure where he wrestled uh, but He he was fatigued. He was fatigued with all the emotions that were going on in that match and I think I think Georgio just clubbed him not super hard the first one and Armand got pissed and then Armand started slapping him So that's where when it kind of escalated But I'm glad like Georgios not pressing charges once I saw him in that neck brace. I'm like, oh god

I thought for sure he got in in the neck brace to like build the case I was thinking like oh like Armand's got a lot of money. This kid's definitely about to like It really out of fucking but it didn't but it didn't the cool thing about those matches. There's no commission Yeah, no commission. So that went down. No, thankfully no one got their face stomped But People were kicking. They were kicking faces. Yeah, I don't need it because it was sometimes some of those Things what they were hard to see just from the camera and certain spots you were sitting But if you go back and look at all the replays from all the different cameras That kid was definitely had a little short shot. Yeah coming from Armand at the end of the match for the way he was You know, like there's couple just straight up nasty eye pokes and then It's like he knows he knew what he was doing Bro, if you're gonna do that shit the fighter like him You gotta expect them to beat you in the wrestling match and then hit you the short shot Well, I thought even been asked her and said I thought he was looking for Away kind of de-cube because he wasn't gonna wrestle he wasn't gonna wrestle him He we he was looking like I didn't do it. I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I'm yelling. Come on Georgie

and And then he ended up going back out there wrestling, but fuck it was entertaining and I'm sure Rafa when that was going on like No, fuck this is our first one. I think he was on Amazon Prime or maybe the next one's gonna be on Amazon Prime They're deals up with foxation, but this just brought millions and millions of eyes Did anybody get knocked out during the little scuffle like I thought that did because really I thought his dad Because dad was laying there flat for a second, but someone kind of just laid it down like fucking that like Dandelion will fucking these rights Being bragged off the mat that'd be terrible Yeah, that's huge man. I'm glad to see I mean, I love wrestling. I love that's huge for the sport man. That's great and yeah now It's just gonna get bigger and bigger and bigger. I'm hoping they can keep this up I think they can though like that show was sold out. There wasn't a seat open in there You think was it was a majority of just like high school wrestling kids there. What do you think it was? Yeah, high school wrestling kids fans of fighting Fuck yeah It was cool. It was so so sick the only thing that would maybe take it out as if UFC said hey you guys can't do it anymore

Oh, yeah, and if the UFC said that Well, well the thing is every UFC fight you got to sign a new contract So they could put that in the new contract because right now if they're said you you can't do that all the sudden Then everyone would have to soon sign new contracts So I'm curious. I hope they don't do that But I'm wondering if Dana's looking at this and like hey, I'm gonna do my own Yeah, I could see him doing that other than that I feel like it'd be just kind of beneficial like the people the UFC fires that go and compete in that you know just because of more publicity get more people Involved in what they're doing. I you know, I think a lot of wrestlers probably Or want to tune into arm and anything armans doing now coming up. Yeah, which is crazy and it looks like they got announced a submission only match 10-minute submission only match already the rematch So someone in Brazil came up with some serious bread Oh, yeah, you know they're gonna get paid good for that. They already just came just signed a rematch Definitely had some bread awkward. Yeah, I wonder if Raff wanted to run that one back

But then armans probably like okay, these kids are pretty good wrestler. I felt it. He's not easy Why wrestle him again when I already just beat him so now Hype Brazil rematch submission only Srukey and verse Paulos um and I'm curious because it's not like Srukey's a guard guy So for Srukey in the front headlocks maybe but still there wasn't even one point in that Raff match where he got a Georgia in a front headlock Maybe I don't know how good Armand's guard is is he gonna pull guard is he gonna try to get him into single leg X and get him into a leg reap Have you seen him on his back at all? No, but you know it is though like you're a wrestler that's never I don't know how much rest uh to just do Georgia like a kid has done But like even if he did take armen down like he's probably gonna put himself in a bad spot You know if it's scrapping like giving him an arm or something to yeah to tie on to Okay, boys and girls this brand is taking over the entire martial arts world from kickboxers in Europe to boxers in the UK to UFC fighters

Here in the US everyone's using this and look online. You see every kind of powder imaginable green drinks mystery blends for proprietary formulas You can't even pronounce. It's expensive. It's confusing, but this this is simple Zapple is just essential minerals designed to support your lifestyle and naturally optimize to stostro no hype ingredients No crazy stimulants just what your body actually needs You take these three capsules with your first meal of the day because these vitamins are fat soluble So they absorb better with food. That's it. We're talking zinc magnesium vitamin B D A and K2 plus shellage it And as you'll go on to for all your strength recovery and hormonal support I've been on it for about a month now and I genuinely feel the difference I'm waking up sharper more drive more focused and if you're a guy who remembers how mornings used to fill back in your 20s You know exactly what I mean energies up recoveries better. I feel 20 years younger It's tested for elite athletes, which means it's safer guys competing in the UFC I know guys like Carl's protests are using it rain or derider

They're now officially partnering with our podcast if you want to try what some of the best fighters in the world They're using check the link in the bio. Trust me on this one And we had Colby Covington. This could be a lie could not be But I know they're probably working on it raft seven, which is the next event I'm pretty sure it's in Tampa, Florida, April 18th and Henry versus Mirabs on there Which is going to be a hard fight for for Henry because Mirabs such good shape Henry's gonna have to keep building And you can tell he's not trained super hard. He was very fatigued in that year. I match So Mirabs gonna be a tough match For Henry and then they say the main event Colby Covington versus Armin That's a sick match. That's a sick match. Colby Covington is very very good wrestler Um, I don't know who's gonna win that. I don't know who's gonna win that probably be it probably be around 175 pounds also Maybe 180 pounds. It could be See next month Tampa, but I'm fired up for it. Everyone's talking about it. Huge for wrath

Huge Okay, here we go You have see up coming. We'll hit that and then we'll go back to some of these questions We had a lot of Joe Diesel rigs questions from last week. I can't wait to head So Kevin all gets it done against Brandon Moreno He gets it done five-rounder A lot of people were were counting this kid out Counting this kid out and he he gets it done five rounds gets run Marlon Cheeto Vera loses another Cheeto type decision Unfortunately, what do you think what do you think the reason he keeps losing for? Ah, I just don't think he's I don't think he's really Improving too much. I mean With his athleticism, there's not really a ton you can improve on either But he has his own gym now and I he just does privates with his coach Jason I don't know. I mean, he's in a tough spot now. He's got three three losses in a row You have see he's not gonna cut him. He's still a big star. They'll give him two more fights Even if he lost another one. I don't think they'd cut it. Have you have you has he had any win since he got a title shot?

No, really god that happens. I don't think so I don't think so you lose your confidence like that. It's fucking tough to get it back Well a lot a lot of people the shugs fight. They're never the same after a fight You were saying that look I look closer at it. You're right. For sure But coming off fight with sick. I think it's sick to see some kid like that go from on rank to to number six I feel like you're gonna start seeing more stuff like that in the UFC with all these younger stars coming out Yeah, you see it already high-ranked guys fighting, you know Yeah And then Daniel Zell-Huber takes another L He's had like three fights where he's a huge favorite and he loses Bobby King green TK out him Really? It's a good win for Bobby green Bobby green would be just such a hard dude to fight or to train for no one fights like him No coach would teach you to fight like that hands straight Down by your waist Coming up like a hammer, but still he's still fun to watch. Oh, yeah sweet and then this weekend

I'm pumped up UFC 326 Huge middleweight bout Rainer dritter versus cow burhalio. So be Rainer dritter's first fight back after that Brennan Allen match Where his coach threw in the towel Taking on the big cow burhalio 17 and two if you guys had to bet 10,000 right now max hallway versus Charles Olivera who you betting it on I'm betting max max five rounds. I know he's just so He's so good at five rounds and he's so good at moving left moving right switching southpaw stomp and teaping moving around and Charles Olivera is going to be stalking him down putting a pressure on him 155 pounds max is going to be really hard to beat yeah really really hard to beat People forget max was given Ilya to play a lot of problems by say same thing out of everyone Ilya's fought max gave him some of the most problems Didn't I think he won the first round? Didn't he in the yeah, he was moving around he was giving him some some problems for sure

How old is max 35 Believe he's 34 and I don't know if you saw you kidding me damn Charles is also practicing the the point in the swing in at the end I don't know if you saw that but he's been working on it. Oh, Charles. What Charles is not gonna shy away from pointing at the ground and slugging in the pocket His sharp chin will fucking take a shot off that one Yeah, it's not a smart thing to do on the prelims. We got Cody Garbrant verse long shower Not sure who that is beautiful fucking name long shower Yet long shower God which should be good And then uh, yeah, I'm excited for that. So we'll have to we'll have to tune into that while we're in Montana Corner in the fellas. What do you think about a yeary verse Oldberg that just got announced You're Yuri dude the way that guy fights Hands by his hips even in the pocket those hands will be by his hips when his right hand goes out his left Hands at his hip when his left hand goes out his right hands by his hip

But it's awkward fighting guys like that and especially at that way when someone's that explosive and they hit that hard with Forance gloves unforgiving It's a coin flip you to get knocked out or you're knocking them out So that's gonna be good. It's gonna be real good. And then also it's looking like the White House is gonna be featuring Either Jones verse Alex Pereira or Cyril gone verse Alex Pereira. What do you guys think about that? Wow please be Jones Got I mean people will complain if it's uh Pereira vs. Cyril gone, but still dude. That's not an easy fight for Pereira No Cyril gone is a clean 265 And it's fast and sparky South Paul too. I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure he is a South Paul. So it takes away that calf kick a little bit more Foo I don't I don't even know who I'd pick in that fight Oh, I would ride lean towards I say I'll go now. I really would

That's not a bad bet. It's not a bad bet. He'd be he'd be definitely be the underdog bed. It's a good money bet It is a good fight for Alex so because of all the heavyweights he probably has I mean that he could fight Jones aspen all are gone I mean he's got the worst wrestling by far. So it's probably the best matchup kickboxing match for sure John Jones vs. Pereira John Jones the thing is about him again. He's gonna be big. He's gonna be 255 And he puts you on your back and you're gonna be in trouble He's not gonna be afraid to shoot on Alex Pereira and it's easier said than done because Alex Pereira's so long He stands far away But John Jones is just another level on the mat Who know who and again? We every time these legends come back We expect these legends to be the same as they were before You never know. It's true. Most of these legends they leave for the final fight flat in their back. You know, it's terrible Everybody's used to seeing their heroes just leave like that You know, so it's rare when you see one that leaves on his own terms. It's cool Yeah, yeah, the other rumor is apparently Ilya said fight news is dropping this week

So it's kind of looking like we got him and Gachi on the White House as well, which I don't know. I would love Would it be beautiful wouldn't it be beautiful is just and saying he's done after this win or lose It's easy to say that if you win If you win and you're guaranteed your next fight to make six seven million dollars guaranteed It's hard to pass it up. It's hard to leave when you're at the top. He lives like a pauper though. He lives very minimal. Yeah, by himself and you know, and I mean it's so I mean If he came back, I would I wouldn't think it'd be over the money Situation they'd be more loyal for him It would be smart if if Justin was able to get out of that fight alive and he won It would be smart for him to call it good. Fuck yeah. Well, I would love to see that He was saying to he was actually on neon stream And yeah, you could tell his house wasn't anything crazy anything like that But he was saying that he actually used to Have intercourse before the fight on fight day Sexual intercourse and then shower up and head right to the arena. What do you guys think about that? I dig it

I've done it. I've done it I've pumped got the demons out and then headed to the battle heavy. I'm Always the day before you know, I used to I used to abstain a long time thinking it was it was bad for me I mean, it's not it's I mean it's a good thing to put a put a pounding on the week of the fight for sure I mean How long you go before the fight is up to you, but yeah, I think it's good to Good to go. Yeah, I think I think a majority of that is just in your fucking head If you if you do some butt fucking and then head to the arena And you're like, I don't give a fuck what that thing affecting me one day and it's probably not gonna impact you It's something to be said for that for your legs to be you know, you feel it in your legs or something If you if you're a jane opera butt fucking that day, you know, I believe I have I've been the recipient of of wasp legs after that. I think I can't remember exactly, but I think it's thanks We're shaky. Yeah, really? Well, especially if you J went off you might have some shame going in there You need a confidence not J not J if you if you're if you're gonna J just save it save that feel but if you're pumping

Oh woman a woman Go in there feeling like the shit Sometimes after you don't you get done doing some fucking your your flexing in the mirror looking at your traps like But then there's times where you've just made a complete fool yourself and you're standing there fucking like a shrimp dick Fuck I you don't you don't want to go in there like that. That's for sure. Yeah Yeah, maybe pop a blue chew before then if you're gonna be fucking on fight day You might pop for that you might get in trouble for that one so be it I wonder if you actually because it's a Basil it's a basil dolly, you know, yeah, well, that's what oh a shadow Tristan go that NFL player He said he took Viagra before every game Man you'd be able to tell with me. I'll be looking red like a lobster. Those blue shoes. I just get it looks like I'm fucking sunburned Just your whole body just your whole body my face. I'm just like holy fuck.

Dude, I've been a fuck I've been a have been a gem lately. I have lately like what last four days that you've been sick of your house I haven't gotten a fight in a long time. Honestly. That's good. I've been like fucking six since that since that time and that Gash Jason. It's almost like you're getting more wise. I fucking am. I'll tell you that because I don't want trouble Even though I like at the wrestling thing I would have fucking sprung up there like a fucking rooster and probably gotten a fight But it probably wouldn't be good for me. I feel like it's easy to avoid fights when It's like a random person that's like not a fighter, but if it's another fighter or combat sports athlete It's like I bro like let's find out that if you think you know anybody can catch these hands That's what I'm saying, but like a random person that's a little tweaker wasp. Yeah, not even

Oh, yeah, fucking I will hammer a tweaker wasp if need be. Yeah, I mean things they have to say must be probably Rapt-up harder, but yeah, like wander and I bitch or something So like that'll get you Smoke shops people who are on the smoke yeah Smoke shops the last person on place on earth to ever get in a fight people who smoke weed are usually just like lady Why do you look at me? Well, they're just laid back like Tommy if you would have been the exact same situation that I wasn't a Smoke shop I was I was I was I left yeah, I had left the um The the jars right next door and I was over there. I forget what I was getting I was talking to the owner and the guy walks in there. I kind of breaks his neck looking at me I'm like fuck you look at that. He's just Fucking walks up to me and tell her fuck I got close up from me hidden with the right hook and down he goes And then he's like and then he wakes up. He's like god.

No, no, no, no, no, I shouldn't let him get that close I mean he fucking he beeline four old rigs and he fun got a taste

He didn't want another one. Look to the map throw the overhand Oh, it keeps you out of here. If you and Diesel could have dinner with any person in the world. Who would you choose who you got Tommy? I could have dinner with any person dead or alive Dead or alive. Oh Damn, that's hard. Just pick one. Mm-hmm 42 Doug Oh Probably some bad bitch. Really? Yeah, probably yeah, because then you shoot my shot. What about Leonardo DiCaprio? I like K. That's what he's got going on. Yeah, probably some hot like actress or something.

Oh, she should have dinner with her not a bad looking gal there Set the one that was called like like area like a Nazi for doing that commercial. I never saw that

I never saw that what's a fight that rigs always wanted but never got Chris Lieben Chris Lieben's 185 pounds yep That would have been good. That would have been good. I think you might have pieced him up. I know I was that's the boy beat Chris the crippler. He was an alternate fighter number one one night. He'd had he would die his hair red Like he knocked a knock vendor out with the fucking with a with a school yard uppercut we uh We uh, we've we've we've heard this one many times. Ask Diesel how he losses virginity It was when he was really young and the dad of the girl was filming it real weird situation So we can cry to my mother like a child. I was I was damn I was out because I would Classify that it was a rape Yes, yep cried afterwards. Are you going to are you and rigs going to be doing more fight companions? I really enjoy that.

Yeah, yeah, we will we would Or give a guy god god. Why are these people? Another fucking homosexual one. It is would Diesel rather get 15 back shots by a guy or give a guy 15 back shots We can skip that no, no, I'll answer that. I'd fucking of course. I'd be I mean I'd rather do the pounding than taking a pound You who well you wouldn't be rather you rather be just fucking I just said that's that's a hypothetical question that anybody would answer the fuck you damn What is rigs his favorite street fight moment of all time? Which one was the most worth it? My my first street fight Your favorite oh fucking the very first one ever got into started the whole damn thing for me Yeah, when I fucking my brother was giving some weed for one of his friends beat the fuck out of me and

I would give him like my lunch money. I was like 11 years. I've been I started boxing at that point But still my mentality wasn't there yet and this kid was like 16 I was like 11 something like that But I was developed so I was a big kid But I remember backing up like like a hundred yards like please no, please no, and then fucking couldn't back up anymore That's when it came out. Mm-hmm. How's a great day flailing? Yep, flailing And then then I realized my father. I got like love for my father So I just kept good kid did matter if he was professional on the street Dad liked it. Mm-hmm. That's good. That's good always when the pops supports it Yeah, you I mean you any more like just saying One of the one of our family members not my mind, but other family members They've said it's like I am not gonna raise my kid if my kid is anywhere close to Maybe getting bullied or someone beat me and I want him to leave that situation and this dude You need to crack that little squirt right in his fucking nose and then that then they'll learn Not the bullia and dude. I mean I have to raise my kids

I mean I grew up with nothing real hard life and they gave my kids everything everything and now if someone someone pushes Joey and calls him a bitch Yeah, all the physical capabilities to fucking smoke him. Yeah, and he but he would I said a sweet kid Son would take it in slapping face and not doing anything. She's so nice. Yes. He's a really coming my son's got a huge heart good kid, but he's just Doesn't have that in him and my daughter doesn't I raised my my both kids the same way and you have to be different towards your boy than your girl You know, I mean you can raise a girl soft and and you know the relationship with the father is very important with kids, you know with the with a daughter For rigs best round you've ever had in a real fight Hmm where you're just like that was one of my better rounds up ever had That's a good fucking question again. I would say Nick Diaz and third my third round my five days It's nice came alive again Can you elaborate on sleeping is a skill? I'm trying to explain to my wife that she needs to learn Sleeping is a fucking skill dude. It is if you're a room

You have all the lights on you're looking at your phone You don't have any red light blockers on and you're watching the TV you're getting all this blue light in your eyes and You're surfing right before you fall asleep. There's a good chance. You're not gonna get into a deep sleep if you're drinking caffeine A good amount of caffeine past 2 p.m. Past 3 p.m. Good chance. You're not gonna get some great sleep So having your room set up to where it's like your body just knows when I go in this room It's time to shut down Slow down the mind a bit and sleep good I mean it's all everything though if you go to bed dehydrated. You can't sleep like shit. So you just gotta you gotta Make sure you're hydrated Go into the room that's set up for sleeping It's really easy to find these nice light bulbs on Amazon that are red light light bulbs You just switch them a couple of them out nighttime click those babies on Red light blockers or blue light blockers are really cheap these days. So having that is there real benefits that There is really a lot of science with that there is yeah I got those red light bulbs in my room It's just so much nicer than having that bright

Spoken overhead light just piercing your eyes to really nice and chill. I'm like a bad. I pretty fucking get around in the dark pretty well nowadays Damn, yeah, but leaving my phone because all my all my bedrooms upstairs. So leave my phone downstairs in the kitchen That's been a fucking game changer. I'd wake up and usually I grabbed that month. I could go out in the balcony and start fucking getting stoned again But sorry just went back sleep. It's too fun getting stoned surfing the phone. It's fucking fun But it is also nice and it feels good for your brain and your body when you do put that phone away And maybe if you're gonna go watch a show with your girl or ever and you're just focusing on that one thing scrolling watching a show. It's just too much Yeah, when you're about to just lay down and shut the old eyes you feel like shit about you I feel terrible about myself like if fucking keep turning off the The time limit on the phone like nope, nope, and then just keep cuz I'm just scrolling you know I mean I've gotten better. I haven't fucking rubbed I haven't jade off in a long time really watch porn a long time So me doing that and it's I'm doing well in life man. I really

As of this last week. That's beautiful. No, no three weeks three weeks It's three weeks and since I haven't been smoking the weed like as much. I mean, I'm a real I'm not gonna put him down all the way. I do enjoy too much Smoking all day someone around looking looking like a fucking beat Nick. No more of that shit. Yeah, that's good It's from our our boy bird dog here. How would diesel rigs handle the people who were on the Epstein list? I'd fucking butt fuck each a one of them No, but actually Really, I wouldn't do it. I fucking each each one of those people should be fucking right and subjective the same thing those kids were I fuck I agree find some big guy Burned alive too if you would make or some big black guy who just will really put a smile on it on those little buses If you wouldn't if you'd make the death penalty for fucking any severe sex crime, especially against kids You'll watch how that shit just drops off, you know, I'm saying I mean a lot of these These pedophiles don't fear that shit anymore because because pedophiles run everything. No Yeah, I just watch this new new documentary out on Netflix. It's like this killer

This killer who was an absolute fucking psycho, but he's he was a he's a good looking guy And he had Thousands and thousands of emails and girls trying to get with him and he murdered these like girls cold-blooded neat He said that he murdered him cold-blooded and he had all these gals online. What's his name multiple girlfriends? I'm trying to find it. This was a real killer killer Oh, yeah, and it's one of the new documentaries is actually it's actually really good. What's the night stalker Richard Ramirez It is the handsome devil. It's called the charming killer. Was it was it Richard Ramirez? Wade Wilson. Oh, fucking that Yes, yeah, it's just a fucking crazy kid seriously and gals loved it That's crazy these gals fucking loved it. They got horned up from it. You know a lot of women They have rape fantasies. I had no idea about that. You know that I've heard that That's crazy. I've heard that a lot of women won't admit it because that's embarrassing And I mean not saying they would want that to happen to him. Yeah, but it's a bean flicker form for sure. Really? Mm-hmm

Damn it Can we get a joe diesel rigs day in a life start to finish morning to evening every day is different Doing things The fucking night That would be a good thing maybe that'd be a good YouTube video fall around joe rigs for a day go to the smoke shop Getting a couple dust-ups and don't try to just button it up just for the video Yeah, we don't want to know mill bull shit again I was not gonna show it the hell I actually That morning that morning was oatmeal, but just a can of spam if I could like if somebody how long doing a doing a live for spam really spam Spam from the makers of Arizona. So it's possible of real spam. Mm-hmm. What they lit that the only the the makers are from Arizona That's crazy Man, that's crazy. We got to get some some of those like AI photos that they do of rampage. We should get some our rigs done That'd be sweet. What was that? Um, which ones they'll just have like fans will send in these AI photos of rampage like him with

Diddy and then rampage like but the fuck you got me We're gonna be dead here. It was like uh, it was Mount Rushmore of him P. Diddy Epstein and R. Kelly Oh my god You quit and fuck you he's fun. He you just keep bugging me about coming down the video. I think he's coming down soon I think he's coming down soon. No, he wants us to go down there for that show. God damn it I didn't be fun. There's also a fucking lot of a lot of questions. We didn't do we do need to go down there It was tiki tiki. I talked to tiki yesterday. He did me like he he just fucking cracked that one On there um crack them into the lips. I forget what the guys in particular is a good guy I like tiki every time every interaction I've had with him. He's been a good guy Worst argument you and Joe and or Sean have had how did you overcome it? Try to think on argument me and you remember I remember if fucking I got myself involved over something with you and Cody And fucking completely embarrassed myself Yes And I'm the I'm I'm a few I'm quite a bit older than you so I should have fucking well That was a couple years where we weren't I mean like a year that we didn't really talk because you moved on

Yeah, and you thought I moved on so you were just throwing my name in the dirt. No, no, no I mean Cody was would would tell me something and it would probably sound a lot worse than it was That's just not right I used to have a bad a bad habit of inserting my fat ass writing the things that shouldn't be involved with that's one good thing I think about me is as soon as I hear a story I Automatically my mind think about what would that person say? That's a good thing to do you do you've always fucking been objective without you all bring some story to you What happened? You'd be like, uh, yeah, right? You're right. There's just two fucking points of every story. I mean chug never really gotten our little bit a little bit of heat Arguments but at the end of the day, I remember another one. I remember when when Um you and it was right when Sean, Sean moved and you guys living together and Yes, and you and it was over over the the boot of the bread or something like that. It was over the dishes. Oh yeah And I had a um who came who came over fucking and then you guys came over to his rescue trying to give him dishes

I don't feel bad for him. I felt boy because it's his because that's when Dan had a conversation with me and was like He's just and he was just getting abused by Tim Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it's because we're leaving to practice and I said hey, these are my dishes So if you want to use them you clean them and put them back right after things he was used to as mother taking care of him Yeah, and he had a plate a plate He just made a bean burrito he had a plate in the dish in the sink and a spoon and we're about to go to practice I was like hey bust that dish out real quick No, I'm like all right. Well don't fucking touch my dishes again And then what did he send you a video of him eating off in napkin like he's just a some poor star Frank did Frank because Frank came over Tim's Tim's so hard on it Frank's like just Tim's hard on and Sean's and he's in the car like look at look at his head I think that's oh yeah, yeah, that's the only fight you guys and pretty much got into right yeah If ever we're into a fight. It's like he's pretty he's pretty he's pretty good Not especially now looking at things objectively and be like okay. What makes sense what doesn't

Yeah, he grew up a lot when he moved on here. That's for sure. Yeah, no for sure and just like All these guys you all these guys that have had so many fights in their life and been in so many situations That no one else has ever been in has had had like Being injured cutting weight so many times being half in a fight in front of millions of people There's a certain type of like wisdom you get from that for sure And I'm gonna be a believer that you know if I've went through some situations in life You know these kids if I can they can learn from my mistakes. I have to go through them. That's fucking huge Because I never had anybody like that. I was First want to do all that all this stuff, you know, so then any any pain of forwards huge in life, man Yeah Yeah, so definitely like especially the probably these last four years Sean's matured more than ever Sure, and I think it up a big part is kids Having kids Wanting to be around those kids. It kind of makes it he's a good father. He's a

He's always wanted to be a dad. He's always want loved kids want to be a dad forever. He's always wanted to mix the baby That's crazy In internet personality that is exact same off camera. There's a ton of them There's a ton of people that are the exact same as you think they would be Tell some like Brian Callan, Chale Sun and Joe A lot of the people I'm around it takes a real skill to be able to every time that camera's on you're putting on a persona That'd be exhausting. Well, actually, I thought Chale did that for really good Especially in the beginning when he was when he got cut from the UFC Then he went back and started, you know making himself a heal more. I got I've seen Been commercials with him and he's just super quiet and that camera goes on. He just hits it You know, he starts to eat plays a character. Yeah For sure Do you think sugar has been proving has been improving the past two years And what do you say is improving improving what improving with like being at peace with your life big time

big time and improving on figuring out what's important in life truly what's important and what you want from your life big time to And I think that's even helped more with him having money and cars and all this like nice Sick material stuff and realizing like damn, that's just it's cool But the most important thing in your life is your relationships with the people that you care about That's true man. It just is no matter where you're at Do you ever find a different way you only have so much room in your life to To tend to so many friendships You know what I mean? Like you have a lot of acquaintance like people that call friends But only only so much time to actual you know, tend to friendships with and you do like do you ever have any time We just tell people I just don't have time for a fucking friendship, you know what I mean That's why I think a lot of the times I don't do that much shit because I see I feel like I'm hanging out with my friends and stuff all day here at the gym So then when they were doing this we're doing this like I'm just gonna chill. I'll see you at the gym tomorrow

And we'll hang out again, but I'm just gonna chill and I just don't we don't don't do that much Because I feel like I'm around my friends all day every day usually at the dojo You are for sure That's what at least you should say because she was a stand-home mom and then I would go home and I would say it was work But it would mean maybe I'll be fuck around the boys all day So it'd be a release for me, you know, it's I'd ever looked at it like that was it's like hanging out with your boys all day at work Tommy gun how's you how do you feel your trainings going for this bout? Really good. I mean better than it ever has been before I'm about Well, it was a five weeks out this weekend And if I just compare it to I you know, I kind of always compare camps Journal every camp and just compare to the things I was going through last Fight camp, you know, I feel like I'm in an even a way better place last fight camp You know, I couldn't grapple all camp throw any kicks or knees Because I'd flare up my back and I probably grappled more the last two months than I have in the last two years

So I'm thankful for that and I and I feel better than I've ever felt before Yeah, I got I wish I wish so bad Let this fight was in a big arena, but it's okay. You're gonna be comfortable to apex You're gonna be good no matter where to at that. That's what I was saying. I'm you know, I love to perform I want to fight in front of the big arenas it, but you know, I'm gonna I'll earn my way there I have no problem with going and knocking this kid on the apex I'm super comfortable in the apex. I just thought you know an undefeated Russian Armenian grappler there broke him. I've been there before And yeah, I'm super excited to get back there I think it's a good a fight card for me to go out there and stand out and cash a hundred K. So Yeah, it's gonna be by definitely belonging a big stadium You know people people want to see me fight. I'm a big draw But I have no problem going and knocking this kid out and then you know Hopefully on the next one to get in a big arena or something. Mm-hmm. What was it? What was the main lesson you learned from that first UFC debut? I mean, it wasn't my debut. Do you feel like it? You feel like this is your debut?

Even though I know what technically is, but it would be hard done. I mean, it doesn't feel any different I just you know, I have so much I'm gonna do in the sport and I truly believe everything I say So it's just kind of like another stepping stone for me to go out there and prove myself, but you know, I did uh Um, I did learn. Yeah, I was gonna say I've never been 15 minutes with a killer like that and then battling through some adversity You know, I mean, I go back. I've watched that fight over and over again and uh I was beating him up the first two and I've meant to fight you know, stop two of his takedowns Had a minute of control time in the front head lock and then uh It was cool to to get clips like that and go through that hard first round still end the round on top Never needed the bell or the ref to save me one time And then just you know, keep walking that kid down and breaking him It just kind of reminded me of you know who I am and I am who I say I am and it was kind of cool to To show everybody else that you know because I obviously talked the way I talked caring myself the way I Carrying myself and to go up there and shut out a lot of the the haters

It was pretty cool, you know, I was getting a lot yeah, I was getting a lot a lot of DMs before that fight a lot of people Count me out a lot of people say I'm gonna get ragged all, you know, and the the only time that kid ever Had any you know true chance against me is when I got clipped by by a nice shot But other than that, you know, I felt good in there and it was fun I had a lot of fun. I live for that shit like That third round was so fucking fun Yeah, I can't wait to get back in there and do that again. Yeah, it's crazy the amount of Confidence you get when you go 15 minutes Well, especially in that case scenario where you got dropped in the first round you got Got caught in a tight guillotine and it wasn't like a slow 15-minute pace It's pretty easy to go tip for tat with someone slow 15 minutes Well, it's a hectic. There's grappling scrambles. Someone gets dropped It's like a lot of pressure. There's just a lot of things going on still going 15 minutes You get a lot of confidence from that. That that was worst case scenario Yeah, worst case scenario for sure. It was definitely cool to show off my I didn't really get to show off like all my wrestling abilities

I only used it for like defensive wrestling, but a lot of people think like I just like can't wrestle or something And I you know, I went out there. I stopped nine to ten shots take downs between the the second and third round If I probably would have got taken down one time in those rounds, you know, I could it could have cost me the round So just having that kind of that kind of pressure and to build a go out there and still feel as good as I did in there and just Yeah, it was a good experience and It's gonna it's gonna make these these next performances what they are going to be You know what I mean? It gave me the confidence and I'm ready to go out there and cash 100k April 4th Yep, we're in for a treat So they say the Georgio armen match is ten minutes Ten minutes submission only Two minutes. Okay, you're you're wrestling wrestling's a two-minute sprint get a little bit of a break 30-second break and then the wrestling's Two minutes a little break two minutes a little break two minutes a little break Get little breaks and then with that that that match with Georgio Georgio after the second round got about a three-minute break

taping his fingers Ten minutes ten minutes unless you know how to control your emotions staying good positions not make a mistake That's a thing wrestlers aren't really used to they're used to these six-minute matches Max and then they come into grappling and a black belt match is usually ten minutes long Um, they could be paying him good. I probably yeah. I'll see why I'll see you take that. What do you think? I mean, I think Srukin's gonna end up submitting them probably around The five-minute mark. So now I'm gonna say I Wouldn't be surprised if it was a hunter grand It's good for not getting punched in the face 100 gram for ten-minute grappling match. Yeah, you got respect that hustle It's not bad at all, but the thing is again The Georgio thing is like It was fucking entertaining. He he got his name went up tons from that match. Yeah, same with almonds Yeah, I think that's about it boys and girls you got anything else Nick

Our Bitcoin our Bitcoin is still real low Stay strong When it gets below 40k I'm fucking gonna buy as much as I can yeah Is that is that the marker when they said if it goes down below 60s kind of torpedo, right? I feel like it I don't know just from what I've been reading and just seen in the past cycles I went I feel like it could bottom out around like 32 35k pretty easily There's there's been seven times in Bitcoin history that it's dropped like this below 50% and then after reaches all time highs Really oh shit the time is coming diesel.

Well, I mean there were some Narratives about Ian Gary like he was getting written off like well known for a cuck Yes, more than anything else. Yes, and then he came back. I forget the fight But whatever one it was it was after the shop God. Who do you fight after that? He fought after a shop car. It wasn't it wasn't oh below. That's who it was I think his win over below was the greatest rebrand in MMA history And what made you think the rebrand worked like because you can't be if he's a cuck in just this pussy and all that And then he goes in and beats the former welterweight champion in a dominating fashion That's I mean and totally new narrative. Yeah, yeah, for sure For sure. Yeah, it seems like the the whole cuck thing is kind of going away for Ian Gary Which is good. It's like the motherfucker is gonna be a world champion at some point So I'm just going away started with fire by the way great to meet you my man great to meet you

Right now I'm a character. I got to get out of character tempo. Okay great to great to be here All right, little breather. Okay, wow. Yeah, no Ian Gary man. Yeah, I didn't think about that Coming in here with fire, but after that ball all win. I mean, I think he could be next for is on Makachev for the welterweight title We don't have a match that's been made yet for that championship. Well, do we know I've seen like you know They make those fake posters. I've seen it, but I don't know if it's legit Like I don't know if it's official. I mean, yeah, I don't think anything's really official I mean, they usually don't have fighters sign ND at NDAs, but I'm curious if they're gonna for this one And they make make it want to be like a big reveal But who would you guys rather see Michael Marais or Ian Gary? I think Ian Gary right now. Yeah, I think Michael Marais, I mean striking profound everything like that I think one or two more fights make it undeniable next in line But Ian Gary skill set wise right now might have more on the table to face islam

But to think about it too. I think ever since Ian Gary kind of felt the home with shoot a box and training with Charles Oliver there and who doesn't love Charles Oliver? I feel like that's totally helped him shape his mind his image and overall He's been a lot more impactful fighter since training with that team. I agree That Michael Marais dude. He I mean, I watch videos of him on X and stuff. I'm like he's a freak athlete too He's not just fucking giant. I mean, it looks like he walks to 15 Possibly 220 six two and he can spring off the floor He's just like a freak athlete and I feel like If anybody's gonna have a chance, it's gonna take a freak athlete like that because islam you see him at 170 And he's looked like he walking in the cage one ninety two one ninety three He is a true true 170 and when he gets on top you It's like if you don't have some sort of horsepower you just not getting up. Yeah, right But with him have we seen him get a win besides a knockout Michael Marais. I don't think so. I think he's about 18 chaos or something I think that kind of worries me like if I'm on shirt dog and I'm betting

I'm looking for someone who has like 20% wins decision 20% wins submission 20% wins knockout kind of worked out like that But if I see a hundred percent Finish rate all in the knockout It kind of shows me that he has limited ways to win if I'm betting on that And do we see islam getting knocked out? I can't picture that. I just can't I mean, yeah, he got slapped with the head kicked years and years ago over a decade ago. I'm pretty sure Yeah, it's getting interesting, but back to your stuff So you you started up used to got a little setup going and a nice setup And did you know how to run like an XLR mic to a zoom or yes, dude It's such a basic setup my buddy Trevor actually one day he just came over and he was like I got this mic setup But I'm not using it. I feel like you'll lose something cool with it So I was like all right, whatever. I was kind of like down feeling it in my feelings going through a rough patch And the next day I just put out my bets and the video kind of like did decent and I was like this is easy So every day I just put out a one-minute clip usually it's like a hot take

But just like a unique opinion and they've been doing great like the last few like all over 100k and then Raff ended up reaching out and they were like oh come to Arizona whenever And do uh cover this event raffle six with henderson who do in your right favor. That's tonight. You guys said you're going right me there and Yeah, just one thing led to another and so they reached out to you on Instagram. They reached out on Instagram. Yeah, dude That's so badass. That's so badass. Yeah, and anymore I mean it is so simple anymore To put up the good quality content And it's the best when you actually are passionate about it enjoy it and those are the people that start taking off And you do a minute clip a day so do you save up in your notes? What's kind of clips you're gonna do or do they pop up the night before or is it just kind of sporadic? I try to be as organic as possible like if there's trendy things going on right now I think those do the best But if there's not like remember there's that big gap I think around January where there wasn't a fight It makes it a little more difficult to write but then I'll do like top three greatest wrestlers in MMA or

Biggest fraud checks, you know what I mean and do it like that kind of timeless Kind of content, but I think it's easier when there's more relevant things out for sure And it's anymore are you on tiktok and snapchat? Yeah, all platforms. I put it out I need to put out more longer-form content though, man Yeah, the longer-form content it takes us I mean you just clearly skilled at it and I think you could do good at it Like starting a YouTube you're saying yeah, yeah like I'm on there, but I'm just posting like shorts reels One-minute clips, but I man I got content from this trip Maybe that'll be like my first long-form content with it. Oh, that'll be good because where do you out of Buffalo, New York? Buffalo, New York and what do you do for work? This right now and it cost you jitsu as well. Where you where you guys? How long have you been trained jitsu? About eight years sweet shout out lumber city combat sports hell. Yeah, that's awesome And you guys trained mostly in the gear. No gear It's about 50 50, but I think no gear starting to take over They've been like eliminating more G-classes and kind of making them no G Yeah, I freaking I have such a passion for the key and I love the key so much

But again, it's like all the kids that come in here. They're coming from wrestling background And I don't really have a lot of people in the gear that are like my goals be a G world champion I have a few, but most people are MMA guys wrestlers, no G guys So I'm just like well, I'm gonna start kind of moving in that direction. I just think it's smarter. You think it's more profitable? I think so. I think so. I mean my no G-classes are just absolutely packed When I was teaching a lot of the G-classes my G-classes were packed too So I mean hard to say hard to say with the kids we have the kids do G- twice a week And then no G- and wrestling the other three days of the week So we're trying to mix it up But again to keep up I'm glad the UFC is gonna start Keating away from these like Russian or just guys who are pinning people because I'm like for me I'm looking at it and I'm like I need to start training these kids at four five six seven years old If we're gonna keep up with those guys in the future at all But now I mean rumour has it. They're trying to get away from these guys that are just have submissions on the record That just hold people down when Sean Shelby when McManard look at those topologies and shirt dogs

I know for a fact they want to see TKO or KO on there and that's gonna help you big time Yeah, how do you feel about the trend of Matching up guys more so for styles and exciting fights rather than just that number next to their name I mean, I think Sean Shelby and those guys are so fucking good at matchmaking They've been they're the black belts at matchmaking. I think they're so good and I mean the grapplers would run through it everyone if they didn't do that most of the time Are you referring to like the MVP matchup? Well, just all all matchups in general in MVP one that that took me you know by aside Like I didn't think that was the type of matchup they would be going for for a guy like him I kind of think it makes sense because he's such an entertaining fighter not that matchup But I always thought he was in a weird spot because I could never see him being champion in the UFC at this point of his career But he's so exciting and he's right on the threshold of like a top five top three Like if you could beat Jared canna near like that you're kind of like you know as a lead as it comes in that division

So he's in a weird spot. I think who did they give him? Uh, they gave Sam Patterson in the UK He's tough. It's a tough night out. Yeah, I'm not a familiar with that guy But like put to your point too Jared canna with all that momentum you have there and coming over from a different organization Then coming to the UFC and then going to Sam Patterson I don't think that was on anybody's radar just watching the trajectory where he's gonna fight in this career Yeah, sometimes I mean you if you have a manager It's really good at negotiating and they negotiate you big contracts You they say hey, I want a hundred fifty K a hundred fifty K to win a hundred fifty K to show Maybe this much more if I finish this guy They're like okay, we're not gonna give you good fights We're not gonna build you up then you're gonna fight the most elite people we have if we're paying you that That's a good point. That's probably what it is. Yeah. Yeah, for sure Um, I'm glad you guys got to see Tommy spar a little bit. He's a beast dude. Tommy guns, right? Yeah I was talking to him after I he was on the Danaway contender series Yes, he went against arm and through cans cousin David was going You see David in all armans vlogs being his grappling buddy

And that was another fight like we he had a injury We didn't get to grapple for that fight and then we're going against David We're going. I'm like walk a little stressed out, but Tommy's a fucking dog He's a dog dude killer bee killed mentality. Yeah, and that's the type of fight you want to see in the UFC And I think I mean, I obviously it's got to be organic But the UFC needs a Nick Diaz type character and I think he has the potential to be that I could see that He has the potential because he's genuinely like he's not a bad guy, but he's generally like a bad boy He doesn't give a fuck and he'll talk shit to anybody's face and he he's got great great conditioning The longer the fight goes the better it is in his favor He was a three-time state champion and wrestling so he can wrestle very good Um, I'm pretty excited. They give him a great matchup this first matchup April 4th some guy from Greg Jackson's But I think he has a potential to win a lot of bonuses You could tell he believes it too like he looked me dead in the face and he was like I'm gonna be a world champion
