AI summary AI-generated from the transcript
Russ and Barry of the Energized Show appear on KCLR 96FM’s Saturday Scoreline during early COVID-19 lockdown to discuss sports without live crowds. Most of the MMA talk centers on whether UFC can still run Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Tony Ferguson behind closed doors or at a performance institute, Dana White’s push to make that bout happen, and the history of prior cancellations between the two. They argue UFC can profit on pay-per-view without a live audience, cite strong numbers for Khabib vs Dustin Poirier in Abu Dhabi, and note Cage Warriors in Manchester already ran with no fans. On Irish MMA they name Paul Hughes, James Keller at Counterculture, and middleweight Wilfer as fighters to watch, and describe Energized as a broad Irish-sports podcast born from a radio course, now covering MMA, rugby, soccer and event coverage. They also mention a recent Michael Venom Page interview on their show and plug upcoming Skype episodes and social channels.

saturday scoreline your music your sports with thanks to the full range of the vehicles at lahars the home of Skoda enjoy Kenny the Hertz does ie welcome back to KC our Saturday scoreline don't know what happened there are some gremlins in the system now I hopefully I'm able to say that I'm joined on the line by both of the guys from the usually usually popular energized podcast boys are we going on very happy Russ and Barry thanks so much for joining and your patience I don't know what happened there he thinks they have a saying - Russ hi Barry how how we cope and rolling a sports podcast and there's no sports on how you get your small fix like when mine you were buy a gold back in the day on YouTube 1999 1999 yeah yeah just unruhe feet on repeat whadaya know what one that one of the things that you'd still be able to may be able to get your spoiler fix on is the UFC with Vanna White talking about khabib and Ferguson and he seems adamant dad's gone ahead yeah oh see oh see yeah the thing is was helping Russel we were talking about this and we said that we wouldn't care if they had it in the UC Performance Institute just a-- to them let them go but they Russell say I as a fighter would you you don't need to feed off that energy is that it's not something that would be in trend in instinctive into you to be able to feed off the energy of a crowd I think these are two quite unique characters and I don't think either these two actually care about Krebs being honest sure when he was fighting against mojo Johnson he was beating him open and talking today in Hawaii and for him yeah and Pony fergan seems to be an absolute madman and he does not see hair at all that anything bar for you because we're talking about do boy as a possible place but with the whole world being in short owner you reckon in its it's like a Performance Center job I think where the wielders way and where there's Borja I'm only involved anything is possible so I think they can probably get fight and we're sure though there's no m kron four's case in Monica's bones I may belong there imagine that did have a bed bed the other facilities to be able to set up something like that in Monaghan I'm sure that there's only be more than bed for coming with it yeah cage was on last night in Manchester and there was no there are no fans so I mean it is it is possible sport who knows if there is if it makes podium a sense and everyone will be tuning in yes certainly well it's so it's so it's creating content for people to be able to to watch and with a fight like could be even Ferguson especially a lot of Irish people come across a khabib Jews to the fight rope MacGregor it's a it's a really interesting fight to happen and speaking of McGregor talking about interests and fights are looking at Goethe then maybe next for him yes on the Roizen on Roddy I think was dawn talking today better possibly happen in July local cars anyone stay busy this year he says he's an active season I think the always ladies and County help hop sale bars and a bit of training so book its most PPV whether you love him or hate him or whatever your opinion knows is of you make sure you watch it one way or the other don't you attend your possibility of an 80s as well because that door is still open they brought it and open up a new door against Katie you don't mean it was really ugly for him yeah well both of you bought them coming off the back of fighting a cowboy Israeli it seems like it's like looking at the UFC though I said the past the past three events Fright Night would call off you'll see Columbus UFC Portland called off a but like white why is it the could be given Ferguson for it why is that the special one that's making to go ahead like Dino White said whatever it takes it's probably not even in the US but the fight is happening right in 2015 Tony Ferguson folks like to be for the first time could could be pulled out due to rib injury and Tony Ferguson Barbosa in 716 Tony opportunism forgot to pull over for you and then cream has boys Darrell Horcher since 2017 could be made too much tiramisu and then yes you couldn't make weight and then without fight and then still maintain Tony Ferguson sent over some warriors I could be a low acquaintance for the belt so this is the fifth point this point has been made but the real reason is my happy made is that a dog cage review yes the UFC can actually make a load of money from selling the fight for my home they don't actually need people in the audience and they make an awful lot of money the last one can be partisan Poirier over and in Abu Dhabi yeah so 1 billion page views I'm 1 million pay for you $69.99 of top I'm pretty sure comes close to 70 million dollars seventy million the invoice make quite good but rough you have very good mats very quick mats quick mats if you're looking at what are you watching Cage Warriors yourself then if you're saying that there's no crowd and I'm a professional wrestling fan so I've been watching some wrestling with no with no crowd it's a bit kind of eerie and it kind of throws you off a tad bit but when you're watching the fights where you still have to enjoy them more did you watch Cage Warriors in Manchester yeah sort of those like you guys you get more of an insight to watch me in bed yeah we're kind of it kind of breaks it down for anything you have to get the fans to get you going wears an avoidant you're you're you have to go or else you're gonna get K old and is there anyone we should be watching over on the Irish scene like being down here insult any way of - Pricer EEE be our top MMA guy is there anyone that we should be watching over in Ireland in Gary the future you call these ice-t brilliant that Paul use also another ones will go for out here hey he's up north he looks very very good for like maybe if you ever walk in a balance problem like yo man it's hot the wrath is the lawyers tell them so you know James Keller is still on the rise over there at counterculture face you undefeated and Wilfer you put a middle way so you mean the Columbarium is it's a small so needs a bit bit of a Roble bad mainstream media hmm and then and like to yourselves you're trying I can see from say your your social activity social media activity that you're trying to promotion all things Irish MMA and all things Irish you know you're it's it's not just MMA its rugby it's soccer and they give us a bit about what the energize show is about I should be directed into money and science yeah we're going to bury first okay the pressures on no but something else we did a radio course together and once we finished it we wanted to keep doing stuff on the mic so we were like right we're or so that's what we what we know the best about an unfortunate Conor McGregor started popping off as well and he was flying the flag so so I'm so we're like the arts football team as much as they weren't doing amazing ebook like Robbie Brady had scored the goal in the euros as well so that helps us know they're koi big and then a Katie Taylor and then like Mikey comes and then the artists would be team as well when the grand slam we've just been going on the Irish wave and they're just going to events and it's just I'm pretty of doing it with your best mate and there's a if there's a lot to be positive of I know like when it comes to say the the Irish soccer team we have a lot to look forward say would you follow us much on the I say the Stephen Kenny say two things yeah yeah minbari actually yeah a lot of butyrate actually follow our podcast we actually reduce them all and with the web for teach game I think it's nice to sort of follow the young people and then see them the season go through because I think I think what Ireland praise was we were getting the European Championship following those or the semi-finals of the quadric on another seventeen and then it doesn't seem to go through but I think an interesting thing what's gonna happen Brown is that the euros being moved to 2021 if we actually get there who will be the manager I was just a note asking contract was itself 2020 and it's even can you expose take over in 2021 so I think it's got to get very sort of finicky on the contract whether it's there you take over off the euros or whether you take over after 2020 it will be very very interesting well oh why can't you just put the two of them in at the same time I've mixed mixed hell fever system on your fear and then have them take over you be having both teams both teams play different styles that's the thing like Mick McCarthy is just like long ball merchants whereas Stephen Kenny may as well call me in now they feel I made this face look they created this problem so now they should deal with it yeah well yeah it's it's it's an interesting thing to to look at as you said there's two different two different styles of football player we seen Liverpool having core managers as well not so long ago Jared Hulya was co-managing was Evans that he was called managing way and it didn't seem to work out there and you know obviously there is a succession plan happening where Kenny is going to take over naturally and it's not kind of the two of them competing for a four you know that further job ultimately but as you said the the different signs of footballers and Kenny probably want to bring in his own players as well yeah you know like I mean obviously it's a terrible thing with kron4 is going on what I mean they're like these artists players and he'll have like another year to develop we're sort of right now is the owner twenty ones are still Rob or lay people like Adam idea or aren't Connolly playing in the Premier League right now although their team's mallika relegated Dale's party stay and get more games on so they'll be better next year for next year certainly and I as Ross what can we expect thing coming up on the energized podcast show yeah we're gonna Skype each other but back to be interesting there there could be a some technical difficulties there every week we give you the latest sport news hope you won't would be consolation about the consolation we also have a bit of back and forth the banter as well and somebody's totally wrong things like while we watch some ethics or whatever so we actually just trying to have a bit of craic and and just a high level
