Energized "The Face Off" previews the Clan Wars 40 main event between Dee Begley and Indra Davis, promoted as the promotion's first professional women's bout and first women's main event after fans voted it the top fight on the card. Both fighters discuss excitement about headlining, growing recognition for women's MMA in Ireland, and repeated postponements that have delayed the booking. Indra Davis, 34 and turning 35 in 2021, says she moved to pro quickly despite limited amateur MMA experience, citing age and scarce Irish pro opportunities; she comes from grappling, jiu-jitsu, and boxing while praising Dee's striking pedigree. Dee Begley says she has trained MMA for about four or five years after a striking background starting at MMA Cork, and expects a fast, unpredictable fight rather than a simple grappler-versus-striker matchup. They name training partners and coaches, thank sponsors, and give fight predictions: Davis picks a submission finish, Begley imagines a first-round ground-and-pound TKO but prepares for three hard rounds. Hosts plug the June 5 pay-per-view and broader support for Irish regional MMA.

[Music] [Applause] [Music] okay what's going on guys and welcome to a brand new episode of the face off russ introduced a guest we have the main event clown wars 40. we have andrew davis versus d begley ladies how are you doing good happy yeah d yeah yeah great and ready to go so we're we're actually making this the main event officially uh intro what would it be i was thinking i didn't think that was announced yet the clown was put up a poll and this was the number one fight that people wanted to be the main event so like this is a very special fight according to the fans definitely definitely is indra what would it mean to you to be the main event oh well uh definitely a bit of surprise um adding another layer of excitement and you know dare i say a bit of pressure as well but um i think you know it's my ego doesn't allow me to believe that this is just for me and dee i think this is the country showing its support for female mma you know and for women's mma and for that reason i am like very grateful very proud and really humbled as well so yeah i'm delighted i think it's it's really good as much as it kind of gives me some goosebumps um it's a good thing and i and i like i say i think it's it's it's funny because we have um my team we've got three other pro fights on the card um uh in the on the main card as well and i mean we've got michelle we've got andreas and we've got ian cochlin i mean they're all black belts you know they're my coaches you know so training tonight's going to be a bit awkward to tell them yeah especially andreas he'll be freaked he's not the main event yeah but again like he's always been such a huge supporter of me and and i know he's definitely behind women's mma so i think he will understand and he will be delighted for us thank you very much how do you feel about main event yeah i kind of probably like reiterate what like a lot of what hindrance said you know really excited i've been on the main card of a few shows before but you know to be the main event would be definitely you know something more exciting and something new and yeah 100 for females mma like it's huge just you know the way it's being recognized more in ireland and you know it just goes to show how strong it is in ireland as well with like liam court's big win last weekend and you know how everyone else is doing you know on the bellator scene um so it's it's it's a great you know thing to be you know reflecting that like nationally on on the kind of regional shows and stuff yeah that's why for the people watching now they do not want to miss this on june 5th come on 39 on 40 going down the same day the link is going to be down in the bio to buy the pay-per-views you have to make sure to buy the pay-per-views to invest in irish mma yeah one thing i will say is that here over on the android show we always actually try and give equal opportunity to both sexes and i must say i find mixed martial arts is the one sport in the world where men and women are seen as equal uh you're seen for your skill set enough for your gender which i think is absolutely incredible and if you ask me and barry who our favorite sports athlete is of all time we'll both tell you katie taylor is our favorite we think she's the greatest other sports person of all time so um yeah so we we just think it's uh fantastic that uh you know it's a sport where both sexes are put on an equal playing field and you know what it it's great to see that you know your fight so far has been voted by the fans be the most intriguing fight uh out of all the points on clown wars 42 and that wasn't just me and ross jumping on and voting so many times so let's get let's get let's get into the fight er indra i'm going to start with yourself how do you feel uh about your opponent d and where do you think you hold an advantage over um well i'm delighted you know that i get this opportunity um it's i've kind of jumped for to pro kind of quickly you know a lot of people have asked me why but my age like i'm not going to going to lie to you you know i'm i'm 34 i'm going to be 35 this year um i've done a lot i've i've trained a lot i've competed a lot in grappling in jiu jitsu i've had a few boxing matches a couple mma fights um amateur and yeah i mean it is quick you know i think in an ideal world if it was a younger me i'd say hang out a little bit longer and get some more experience but i think the way it's going at the moment and there aren't that many opportunities either and so i am like delighted that it's that it's dee i think she's uh you know really big in irish mma i've been watching her for years and she's been on the striking side i've been kind of doing more of the grappling so and i think for anyone who says you know oh it's typical grappler versus striker i think they're going to be quite surprised you know i mean it would be remiss of me not to be you know working my striking my stand-up game and i'm sure dee's been working or grappling and i know she started off in mma cork and uh they've got amazing grappling a ball grappling cage grappling so um yeah i think it's gonna be more interesting even than maybe people are anticipating yeah this is also the first ever professional women's fight on clown wars as well so just a bit of extra history on top of that as well yeah and then dee what about yourself uh how do you feel to be fighting nindra and where do you think you hold the advantages um yeah so i'm really really happy i really appreciate um indra taking the fight because like she said like opportunities to fight in ireland at pro level are like few and far between um so very happy to be fighting indra and like that um i think yeah very kind of similar uh it like people do think like you know that i'm like i am high level striking and that i come from that kind of a background but um you know i've been doing mma now for like four or five years so my grappling has you know gone up levels in that time uh so yeah it's going to be it's going to be a really um interesting fight i'm interested myself you know and you know the way like fights go it's that first you know 30 seconds minute of the fight and you're feeling each other out and uh yeah i feel like it's going to be a high-paced fight and that yeah it'll be something that the fans will want to see because it's it's not what you're expecting so yeah so it's good and then uh do you just follow up on that do you have any female fighters that you look up to um whether it be in mma or me in boxing i'm sure everyone looks up to katie taylor but do you have any mma fighters female ones maybe like snake haven't earlier court that you do look up to yeah like i i definitely like you know the girls i train with are like they're [ __ ] they're all fighting on that level they're um fighting with bellator uh really high level girls and like that shinee kavanagh like i do rounds with her and like she'd humble you like she would i don't know that yeah so um no she's been a great um training partner and like really like you know if i can kind of you know cause any bit of trouble for her uh grappling and and striking yourself like you know i'm happy and then like the likes of danny neelan you know she's been my um train my aspiring uh partner you know and she's you know she's bringing a totally different like um angle to it really high level stuff so you know i'm more prepared than ever for these girls who are and like of course i look up to them because they're doing what i want to be doing so um you know i'm i'm a newer pro than them and like that's where i see myself now in the next six to twelve months yeah also for that win over the weekend that okay came out absolutely it was unreal it was actually so good for like uh the mma in general in ireland just being like you're never out until the last second you're still never out like yeah she got something into it yeah yeah yeah but but like she also capitalized like that triangle was on before before she knew about it so like i mean like there are the opportunities that uh that uh come to fruition and she took it and as well like obviously she had a difficult weight court as well which uh i i definitely feel sorry for her and i i i don't know if this is like well i try not to make sex but like obviously like women have like you know like a menstrual cycle and stuff like that and like that can obviously affect your weight and stuff like that and i'm sure if you you are fighting what's called around and that time that like it can become far more difficult to cut the weight so uh i think that's something that's like totally overlooked in women's mma i was just having that conversation the other day i think it's something that'd be really interesting to start a conversation with some other women first and then maybe yeah well definitely yeah i don't think we should be here talk about it now because yeah that was i don't know enough about it but like uh my partner is like personal trainer as well and like she like obviously discloses what her clients have she doesn't tell me what her clients say what she tells me like the effect it has on like just her training alone yeah and then like i just thought about it about like where you couldn't uh around that time like you mean like it must become an extra sort of element that um yeah also one more thing you have to kind of try and factor in and time wise and your weight and your diet and your mood and your energy and like oh just keeping going but um yeah yeah and then what do you mean being postponed and postponed and postponed it hasn't helped the situation at all that's what i was thinking but obviously like people do know that they're in the gyms that do train like they do train with women they don't understand that's what they're pushing this to be number one you know yeah yeah yeah absolutely and i suppose uh i just want to answer uh you guys i'll start with yourself this time out of all the women's mixed martial arts in the world who's the one who you think your game is most uh comparable to ah the one i would most like to be comparable to um well i i love rose's style um i i just i just watch her striking and it's just she's just she has such flow i mean her her rhythm is is next to none and i that's what i would aspire to you know and i know she's got amazing jiu-jitsu and amazing grappling but because she's got this beautiful flow like her last few fights have just been stunning just the the kind of whippiness of of her her strikes and and when it lands it's just perfect you know she doesn't expel too much energy she just really gets it done it it feels like she can't ever be exhausted because she's just timed everything perfectly that would be my my yeah i aspire to that you know buzz do you remember being there live in person for thor gross we were at ufc 217 when she beat yoni and jay check it was insane we're actually with a load of joanna fans so like that didn't go down too well what about yourself dee uh who would you like which style do you think most similar to yourself for me um i i like the idea that i will be kind of similar to um valentina shevchenko just that kind of like kickboxer soil the strong legs and but she also has like you know the the grappling game in there as well and you know that that powerful kind of movement and uh yeah i'd like to think um you know my style would be similar to her definitely not as tall as she is but um my legs are deceivingly long so we have elite mixed martial artist in the world also uh it's incredible to see you know how dominant they they've been against their opponents as well um you know i mean i always just think um out of all the women uh i think actually rose number eunice and valentino shushanko are the best under any given night uh i think amanda nunes uh although she is considered the women's goat she does uh i think have a lot more physical advantages over opponents she seems to be bigger she seems to be longer she seems to have carried a lot more power as opposed to when it comes to actual technical skill and ability rose valentino i think are our next level hence why valentina could hang in there with amanda and give her such a hard time yeah no definitely and i think um uh amanda nunez as well kind of i think it showed against jeremy like she doesn't have the strongest grappling background but she's able to force a position you know against someone who's the same size as her and you know so it's yeah amanda has some power though like what a fighter like those knockouts i wouldn't that's one person i think like just because of the wave difference as well i don't think i'd like to find them yeah well i wouldn't really want to fight france and ghana either you know i think i think i go past thanks very much me and barry always actually play a game of how much money would it would you take francis that was in the millions it's always it's definitely the millions yeah for free oh stop guys one thing that we haven't asked our face off and guys i'd love to ask you guys is what is your favorite fight of all time start with yourself there india ah she uh put me on the spot there now thank god you asked indra first [Laughter] me and barry tell you our favorite points give you a bit of time yeah yeah yeah my favorite fight definitely is rory mcdonald robbie lawler too well i thought that was absolutely epic um it was more it was more when it came down to the fourth round and the boat like just stood there covered and blowed and stared each other down i was like you can't you can't actually write these moments in may and i was like that was absolutely incredible and so that was my favorite fight ufc 189 lola mcdonald too bad well no i'm not actually too sure i was going to crack a joke saying and ganu against um black beast i'm not actually too sure it's just um i actually prefer watching the people train and the build up to the fights i know the fight's just the result of all the training put in the hard yards but like i i almost rather watch like the the countdown videos or the build up and watching people like really put everything into it and see how much they put into it and then thrive on fight night but um obviously like i mean the night conor mcgregor knocked out jose aldo like the world changed you know i remember ross actually ross was just falling asleep in the second knockout happened he was like up like a like popcorn everywhere you know but uh that was something else yeah i mean the irish amazing last few years is unbelievable yeah absolutely and i think everyone knows all the money i think yeah i think everyone knows exactly where they were when conor mcgregor like knocked it out it was definitely wherever you went yeah well i think my second favorite of all time is like ufc 142 it was actually chad mendez versus jose aldo too that one was an absolute barn burner for scrap and i think it's like almost goes under the radar is one of the best ones of all time doesn't connor stand outside wasn't even sort of the pink and brown yeah just stand and stare yeah you have some memory like i mean like i i watch most of the ufc's i watch a lot of one fc and and so on but i like the women's fights for me just they stand out in my memory even though i probably have enjoyed men's fights just as much if not more but for some reason they they stick in my head and i think it is that element of oh i want to do that or i want to you look that good when i'm doing that so um but yeah so i mean if i'm just gonna go to very recent history and say uh rose and zhang i think especially because i called caldish for uh for rose so a bit proud of myself for that one yeah and what about yourself dee um i it's kind of like for a more recent one i'd have to say zang and joanna i thought that like fight was outstanding uh i was actually terrified for you wanna have that fight home i don't know if you guys remember when mark hamnick fought jose aldo and he had that like massive lump on his head like she looked like frankenstein like i don't mean that a bad way but like badly injured yeah that fight was absolutely incredible it did one fight of the year um and i just i thought a spectacular like what a showcase of skill like it was outstanding and then like from a male fight i was thinking of like robbie lawler mcdonald popped into my mind but i'm even kind of like more recent again like as a as a striker i thoroughly enjoyed max holloway and alexander volkanovsky like both i like thoroughly enjoyed those like they were enjoyable they were like oh yeah thank you when does max holloway not put on the show when losers draw like he's incredible and he's my mate so like that's not true that's not true don't listen yeah guys obviously before we wrap things up um is there anything you want to say to each other we need a prediction first bosmo all right yeah so you're going to have to predict your own fight ladies and so who wants to go first i think dee's going to win you know like you can't no obviously not okay well in in my in my daydreaming it's always been first round uh tko ground and pound win for me but i am preparing for a three three-round battle you know absolute hellfire that's what i'm ready for that's if it goes that way i won't be surprised you know and i'll be happy if it goes that way and that's exactly what you're trying for yeah andy um you have to say andrew is going to win so i'm going to win via via uh in like a similar in my head when i think about the fight and funnily enough i'm i'm kind of thinking like uh submission win kind of you know shocked the the nation um yeah submission win or like a finish anyways um i don't want to be uh what's the word oh i'm blanking i don't want to be like yeah yeah i don't want to be too overcome today like oh first round um you know i like i could see it in in the later ends as well but yeah i think it's a mission finish i'm going to say that i'm going to put money on that in fairness we actually had one fellow on here and he did what's called these totals opponent he's going to finish him in the first 60 seconds yeah some of these face-offs have gone mentally yeah yeah they are you ladies have been at the most most respectful but like also i think um for this occasion you know being the first women's main event and you have to see it believe it and make it happen that uh especially the first uh women's pro fight that clown was put on and i just think that it's an incredible um achievement for you guys and i think it's an incredible acknowledgment of your guys skill level as well that uh you guys are going to be the main event at clan wars 40. uh we are definitely looking forward to seeing it and i'm going to say it again if you like irish mma whatsoever whether you only watch conor mcgregor or you watch bellator you
