introduce the guest man to today we are bringing you everyone's favorite UFC bantamweight it is the dawn kayin lran kayin how you doing my friend never better l h yeah not bad not bad it's good to see yourself happy today kayin how are you keeping bu I good L have my it's what Tuesday now F weeks next week of my last hard hard Spar I'll spar again on Thursday I'll have one more but it'll be like probably bigger gloves bit of a move around but a really hard one today with two guys so that's done uh weight is good training camp has been touch W of three more so days unbelievable so no good lot I'm uh really really really excited for five week and trve down to Manchester you know what I mean ready to go Kaylen does this one feel that a little bit extra special because obviously you had the you had the debut you know what I mean like things went wrong with the walk out then you know what I mean you know it must been a nerve-wracking fight it was it was it was a close fight then you you know you rode that wrong in Atlantic City now you're back you're fighting basically in front of what could be a a HomeTown crowd really um not too far from the gym I'm sure you have a lot of people coming over from Ireland does this one feel like like by far the biggest one for you yeah by a right but to be honest this is my first time in a UFC pay-per-views my first time with like a really really good camp behind or behind me going into it it's the first time that I've F fighting on a card with guys that I've like before I was in the UFC I was looking up to Leon I was watching all these guys I was watching Arnold Allen stuff being brutally honest when I was like warming up in uh or even training on fight we at Atlantic City it was like guys like you're [ __ ] I don't know big Swedish guys like on four in new these B were quite poor to be honest this time I'm going to be about a pay-per-view with aate Fighters probably the biggest card the UK has ever had if with the two Champions it's not fight we get that's usually whenever like the commotion starts building for a card but it's going to be big lad and uh round here obviously I'm 40 minutes down the road P fighting there's I don't know how many hundreds to have now thousands of scers going down so it's it's it's big over here like and uh I can't wait L I'm I'm more than ready for it you know kayen last time we had you on you said you felt like a loser and obviously you wrote that wrong like what way you feeling going into this one feel like a [Laughter] winner uh [ __ ] I'm not there yet lad I feel good feel really good the last one like it wasn't even oh yes I'm the man of won at the UFC like I was not it at all it was just like a s of relief really thank [ __ ] cuz again I say I was with all nbody on fight week watching them train I like I [ __ ] better win CU half these counts are useless that's what I was thinking to myself as a I better [ __ ] win at this level got the win uh relatively happy how it went like anytime you're ripping out 108 at UFC level you can't be too hard on yourself of course you want the Finish but just happy to get the win lad and H I I don't feel like a loser so much anymore but I still feel have a lot a lot to prove absolutely no we were absolutely puzzled for you man it's not it's not very often arand has a florider in the Octagon flying the flag and then getting the win it was uh it was great for Irish MMA wasn't it Ross yeah absolutely absolutely and look he'll be one of three Irish fighting on the card um obviously sha AB Ban's fighting on the card and Kei for Crosby fighting on the card as well um how is how has it been getting ready for the time difference when you're fighting obviously you're going to be fighting later in the in the evening have you made any changes or preparations for that do you know what lad I leave no stone unturned anything I could do this game I I try and my Camp was 10 weeks so I don't like a pre-amp I was traveling [ __ ] travel every were travel Tob done a lot of training when in that 10 weeks fit but 10 weeks is what is camp Camp that's where I'm on my ice B me meditations me I know I know what I'm going to do 10 six weeks in advance I know what what I'm doing on the wensday as when my Camp is dialed in so if I can do anything to get Advantage I'll do it and the first so like nine weeks ago and then eight weeks ago I just trained as normal done my normal weeks training and then on the Saturday night I went and woke my body up at sign up this 24-hour gym here in Liverpool L1 and I went and train at midnight and I done one on the Saturday night and then I done again the Saturday night the SEC the second week of camp and quickly realized that this is easy I don't need any preparation to go at this time I'm going to be fighting at 120 it's say the second C second fight on the prelim card which starts at one so 12 130 I was going at roughly midnight this I thought this is easy and then I thought that it was AFF of my recovery for the Monday morning so I Haven do one session on Saturday take Sunday off and I'm back on the Monday for three so I was thinking it's a fact my recovery on the Monday it's easy to do so I like I actually don't think that I need to prepare so I cut it out that's the truth I st doing it because thought it wasn't benefit of me and it was easy to do it I didn't need to prepare for it but then now when I'm coming towards the end when I get to Manchester certainly I'll I'll start training at midnight I'll wake my body up at that time but that if I had to train tonight at 120 I could train at 120 absolutely no problem whatsoever so that's the truth I was thinking that I need to prepare for it and I cut it out because I thought it was hindering my training camp that's that's to be honest now if I was Leon and um different story of course I actually think they're probably I think they're maybe better off than the ls that are on slightly before them like if you're on at 5:30 you probably could get asleep if you're on at 3:30 to 4: that's tricky like when do you sleep I I think it's I don't think anyone actually has any idea but that's just me personally that I had started to prepare for it and then thought it was hindering my training camp and my sleep and my recovery so I cut it out have you been drinking any wine in this Camp wine I don't I never Dr wine in my life lot just going by the the wine opening your hand but that was a gift you see that table out got all these things from the my fight and everything UFC what else you have the enero glasses there the contract I have eno glass up there is that the fail drugs test you just showed us there I don't know what the [ __ ] I've got everything I've got my cage War gloves and my cage Legacy belt and Mazda fight night I've got everything I've got everything here yeah it's a it's a it's a probably an epic setup you got yeah we have to get you to send a photo afterwards of H of your uh your setup all your memorabilia that you have there absolutely love it and uh what will it be what will it be will it be the gloves for for this fight that you'll keep as memorabilia or what you do with them uh I I actually would you believe this I've lost my gloves from Atlantic City that's that's the [ __ ] worst thing ever I don't know I don't know where they went I took them in the train one day and I've lost them I don't I'll keep whatever I can keep I think my sponsors been bir they want the shorts I'll give them that but I'll keep something that I lost a poster in New York on the rip last time which is the worst thing ever left in the hotel but I keep something L I keep everything I keep my chain from the winds I keep I'll buy something and I'll keep something all me passes and everything here but my hand Ra's covering blood I'll keep us something that now bury myself bury with get buried with him on a m you know and kayen obviously you're man who keeps an avid eye on the bwe division I feel like you know every fighter signed to the roster in the bwe division they're all potential victims at some stage what you make a Roman tarez I don't think he's all good that's me being honest I don't think he's all good he's better than Angel Pago step up 100% not even close to lapis I think he is a left hand that's what he is bit of a knck attack I think he's a cringy cringy cringy kid who's very overconfident been texting me right bit the [ __ ] uh what's he been saying he's just like laughing very dismissive of my skill set and I'm tell him this is literally the first fight he's ever had when I was winning kage wars titles and fighting lapis St he's fighting boys with like [ __ ] nine and eight records like over there it's like he's a left hand I think I'm going to nullify his game walk him down win every single second nullify his game walk him down make him tired and stop him that's am might I actually know that's going to happen I don't give him the advantage anywhere say he's literally a striker with a left hand he's lead he leads with it he counters with it he can't throw his lead hand I just think I Ain going to make him TI and walk through him I don't think I'm going to make him TI I'm going to walk I don't like him is he the bad guy in this fight I don't I don't know I don't care he's an Oregon cringey bastard I have much he putting up uh his Instagram name is catch D hands he puts up his woman cornered him the last time that is the weirdest thing I've ever heard in my life he woman cornered him he shares all the stuff about his woman uh uh he's fat he is arrogant he put up a CT scan of a dog in his chest and says he's got that dog in him 100% serious I just don't like the guy he's a cringy American Weirdo And I'm gonna walk him down and bit the [ __ ] out him I can't wait L I can't wait to fight him can't wait to fight him and one more for the bad guy I'm not I don't like I'm don't a style I don't think he's that good a fighting either to be honest for someone so Oregon he's literally a left hand and I've always seen him comment on a load of posts that you're tag did and stuff that he like nearly my I have like fan pages and like people like tags him and he like gets in he's like so I as soon as I talk to this guy he's going to want to kill me it's going to be the easiest thing ever like I don't I can say this you can Tagg him because he gets in these rows with like my friend stuff online like he's like he just loses his head I'm like you're such a you're such a you're like when I see that I just think you're not ready for this level you're just not ready for how could you be ready for the UFC if you're like literally beefing people on when someone says I'm going to smash him he's like oh my God you and he goes on and I'm like you're just not ready for the UFC L you if you actually like visibly affects you like you think I don't get that every [ __ ] week people call me [ __ ] like if you don't if that affects you like you're just not ready for this level simple as that he's never competed at a high level against anybody he's nine and two with two knockout losses as Pro UFC debut was an absolute scrap that honestly I don't think that he won maybe you want to give it to him that was a rematch on a guy knocked him out that guy was [ __ ] let's go let's go you Arrogant Bastard let's go can remember last time someone left a French flag on your post you know what I think I I actually think the French get on like like me yeah I think they do I think that they actually like put it this way you took you took a fight that no one had any interestes in and it was one of the most talk B fights of the night uh no I don't get too much stuck I don't get too much stuck from the franch at all know there's couple of not really I guess some support like matches of sport on on inst from French to be honest but uh no I don't think I'd actually love to go to the French show on September 28th I'm more Sting the UFC for for two tickets if they give me to just to to get to I think that' be good buz uh French the French crowded man is probably the Hub of Europe even like pfl like Doom Bay and that it's [ __ ] it's special like so not fair play and did you get much sck for holding the Irish flag of wrong the last time out yeah I did yeah with good reason you know the worst thing about that is I literally before I went out I took a second I was like right I literally thought about the Ivory Coast before I walked I was like how do I do this and I done it wrong which is like makes it so much and then I had the Asen D actually tweeted me back she said like off the top of my head I can't she told me how to do it right and I actually would need to go back and look at that because I end up doing the again but I did get a bit of stick and and with good reason I I think I think you're holding like right in front of you and then when you flip it over your head it goes the wrong way or something like that yeah I have the flag sitting right here don't dude give us a practice run there you know what how the [ __ ] with it Earth that's the thing I don't even know see that I'd have to think of that one L I'm not [Laughter] going practice PR your practice in will definitely yeah what's called that you can have John Gilly's uh what's called drill that IM with you the walk walk up to he took sck in the last one because it was the stupidest thing everybody walked out with the flag and then uh like I done the way with the flag walked out with the flag put the flag around me they're about to kn that have won and then they told Gillies no Flags so he had to come take the flag off me but he was told by the UFC to do that and it looked like he took the flag off me so people M him saying I English can't ripping the flag off but he was told to take the flag off me but I don't know why because because I literally had the flag the whole way but I don't know hopefully it's allowed in Manchester probably not but hopefully it is yeah they never took the flag off McGregor speak speaking of Connor you and Conor are now best mates again how that go down that was a good that was a good segue how' that go down K good lot I I don't think I'm on the Christmas list like but I think I think we're half civil I don't know if you could see the video lad l i I'm now 28 years old like I'm about to go 2 and0 in the UFC this year I don't need validation from any man like I don't care if people like me or not like I don't I'm doing well myself one ual title in the I don't care but I would rather have a relationship with McGregor than than than a negative one of course he's someone that inspired me of course looking up but I don't care I don't actually care so he came into the I exactly what happened I was up at as a pul fight the uh Bator thing and uh I was up in the crowd kind of away from everybody else but I got bad people in the toilet stuff was kind of away and then I the priz guy was there sponsored me me and turn sponsors Paul sponsors the PF M he's the man and uh he's called Paul Hark and I ter as we'll get a photo with with with Paul and we go down to the bar Lo clock me and [ __ ] about I don't know load woke up and get phos of me young kids and stuff there it's cool and immediately everyone runs away from me and I'm like what the [ __ ] that was B weird because McGregor's come out and he's obviously cooler to the ball R McGregor and I go to Paul I heard turn around as well he missed it he way for a piss so he didn't get the me I he he was actually raing uh I go to Paul the play guy I go Paul get me in here like talk this talk with McGregor CU he's like in the barer and he both laugh I go L him serious get me in here talk this and uh he went and got the pfl guy and and says oh he's in the UFC get him in as he's saying this I've scaled the fense like I'm in I'm in the barer to see and I go to m here so like well and he goes me here and then he kind of goes and then he comes up to me and he's like H just not at home but he's home with obviously the for thing and that and then I got he started talk my fight coming up and congrats in the win and stuff so no it was it was good lad he uh physically looked phenomenal if I'm being if I'm being honest but I think you can tell from the video like I wasn't F buying over anyone like I I was I think he he he he can of have a people up to like test their energy and I just look I i' I've had a [ __ ] 185 pound darn Hill in front of me eyeballing me as he's thrilling me left hands like that will not affect me like you will not you will not no one no man this Earth's going to do that to me like I don't so he kind of Lo up he I feel like he probably respects that and wasn't fan boy him I don't know but it's good to have I'd rather have a relationship with him than than not and I would absolutely love to share a car with him because his fights are the best fights his they've always been the best fights they inspired me he as a kid growing up so that would be cool like but no it's better to be in civil with him than not isn't it yeah so it was overall a positive interaction as fans well as fans may we want to see we want to see that as well you know yeah oh million percent is positive I he's uh he was talking about the congrats on your win stuff and talking about the next one it was five weeks out there I was tell him so no it was good it was good I'd like to see him back happy days he one person brought up there I have to ask Darren H he he had a box match over in uh dubo there did he get much steak stick that he h ConEd a take down at the end offer no but he deserves stick I feel I don't know I like see him back in M like he left M now he's [ __ ] on the car of two midgets over in Dubai I don't know it's mental is the fight not to make him versus Mike Perry and be knuckle no I mean I wouldn't want to fight Mike Perry and bar knuckle uh I think pure boxing would probably suit tell better that way but uh by the way Mike Perry puts his girl in his Corner that's that's cat there's no two ways about it uh I can't wait to say that to M ofs he gives me this like it gives all this like oh I'm from the hood one of Os from America like oh I'm A Gangster all this [ __ ] it's like GL you had your woman cornering you like you can't scare me so I that's weird Sam Alie did as well actually um I'm sure there's other ones as well uh kin like obviously the Irish M fans love seeing you compete like you're obviously going to be out in action uh you see Manchester 304 on July 27th uh as you said you're going to be on around 120 would you be interested in getting out again this year I know you mentioned you want to get in the Conor card I know you mentioned the France card as well like how active you want to be this year I wanna run through Ramon Tavarez seven weeks to the night after fight R Rosas Jr in the sphere back to back in and out B this fat absolutely walk through him and kill him and be back in the gym and camp on the wday on the Tuesday whatever it is go and enjoy the son all my friends who are coming over are coming to Liverpool for the day two L against bar for anyone watching they're going to put us up they all are in finals onone it's going to be a good day but I'll go back in camp on the Tuesday absolutely 100% even if this is a blood bath and raon drops me and [ __ ] after come through a scrap and I can't train there two weeks I'll fight Ramon in the sphere seven or sorry rosis in the sphere seven weeks after that's my plan L it's the only way to do it in this game look at Prime Mark and the come up 18 months you B out I know how many fights is you look at Alex P now going in on two weeks no and put man clean out so I go and smoke this kid seven weeks later go and smoke Royal Ros j i one of the names in the division I changed my [ __ ] life so that's my plan L back to back and then may be gr Cameron to and a shot at you come the end of the year on the McGregor card n he's going to the pfl that D couldn't care less with him oh he's done he's done and dusted he G is done yeah well look he he had his he had his opportunity and he blew her to get a shot at% K yeah kayen do us a favor when you're over there get a picture of with ke from Sean as well that like the Irish fans would love that the three the three Irish for all together um K is there anything else you want to say to the people tuning in because uh as you know like people around to us being like when he's getting K on the show like we love having you on bud like is else you want to say the people who are going to be tuning in to see you win a cage Wars tri4 in Manchester but and nothing not just thank you very very I've been home right but the last uh only the weekends I got home now because I get the same flight get the train here on Friday morning and I go back I go back on the Sunday night so I'll be home right but now maybe two three times a month for the weekend and there's support from my land in the airport in Belfast whatever wherever I go in the north of Ireland throwing da Belfast is unbelievable it's humbling and thank you very very very much I'm going to slap the nose off this cont I'm going to batter him absolutely walk him down and batter him I'm going to try for Theon tarez sorry I keep saying this they try for the Roy russas fight seven weeks to the day after if that all happens obviously fighting's nuts but that's my plan if that all happens I'm going to grab the mic and call for UFC Dublin that's that's what's next for for all of us really is what I'm is what I'm planning you know but thank you very much is what I would say more yeah well look we have uh six fighters in the UFC now from Ireland so like I think it's about time they come back come back to Du I think it's uh let's make it happen yeah 100% yeah the July 27th is Ireland's very own Euro final yeah it is you know I I've been over in England I was [ __ ] good to see them B to P it that way I was very the Scout they say like Scout not English I don't know if you've seen P not about it but there's a lot of student like my down she lives down in the baltics a lot of students that are in Liverpool from around England [ __ ] hell it's good to see them bit yeah they all e the to ass that night that's the thing like uh like the RM fans when they see people doing well especially in the UFC to get even more interested and the hype gets bigger and uh like that's why we love cover the sport but K man we we appreciate your time we look forward to seeing you competing 27th and we'll let you get on with the rest of your day bu thank you boys anytime en show up the Irish so Ross that was The Dawn yeah top top top-notch bloke and um obviously very very talented can't wait see him perform uh and I think I think this is a great card to be on as well uh as he was saying it's like probably the biggest card the UK's had potentially ever and I'm going to say like it's definitely the as you would say the Super Bowl of European MMA for this year anyway yeah not sure we're ABS buzzing for it as well yeah absolutely absolutely but uh maybe if we uh well not quite closer to home but if we uh move into the more uh no European leagues of MMA uh cage Wares up this weekend baso you excited for him yes so cage Warriors 174 is on this Saturday in the Indigo at the O2 Ross that's that's one of your most famous favorite favorite Arenas yeah most been to the Indigo about seven times they said say h great spot I've probably been in the Indigo maybe as many times I've been in the three Arena but probably not far off the truth yeah a lot uh what they're doing this time is right they're doing a prize fighter Bantam way tournament so uh sherzad quadrian is taking on wesy MAA and in the other semi-final Aiden Stevens finding Alex Alexander LOF and then there's a reserve bout of Alexandro Giordano against Michelle martig nanii Russ before we get into the Irish fighters who do you think will actually win that whole thing I like l i I think like L is like super super exciting he obviously had the absolute War H Luke Roy and I think he's the man to beat to be honest and I actually think if Marton like was wasn't in the Reserve I consider um fancing him for but I know I think I think L was pretty class watch yeah how much does the win gu 50 G's baby jeez lovely uh right I'm going to get into the Irish Fighters first R right um opening up the card we have uh compound martial arts's very down EMR Darcy she's taking on Camila burstrom last time EMR Darcy got the win in Dublin and she's taking on camil burstrom who's actually making her Pro debut and had a record as an amateur as one and seven do you like this fight forer um look I'm not really mad that she's fighting someone who is one and seven as an amateur I think this fight is probably I'm going to dare to say easier than her last and the last one she won in 60 seconds so um I think uh I think this is going to be another chance for em uh em to Showcase herself I think imy is like definitely got very Cris boxing um and I think she's someone that cage warrier should probably latch on to and potentially look at building a division around because she's got the talent to do it um she's maybe a bit on the quieter side in nature in terms of personality wise but like she she's lay with her hands in the in the cage and I think she's definitely want to watch um I can't wait to see her Point yeah the thing is see the way when sh s with the UFC they sort of they sort of pushed the way sh was good friends and Molly cage War should push more that EMR is good friends with Shauna uh Ross then also Georgie grov from hul martial arts is taking on Tommy Bruning H kayin was actually training with Georgie groov so uh this is actually a big fight for Georgie yeah absolutely um Kayan was telling us off the air there that uh he was really really impressed with Georgie's wrestling and that's why he brought him over for his camp for UFC 304 and we've seen Georgie on the amateur scene um we've seen him smash through people and once he gets on top of you he is Relentless and I don't really expect much to change coming into the pro scene I think he is unbelievable as a Grappler and I think his hands are coming on my only one sort of query for this fight is that is at Bantam white I think i' rather see Georgie fight professionally a flyweight but uh potentially that's not an option for him at the moment in cage Warrior so uh or maybe just for this card should I say so let's see him out there but I'd like to see him my flyweight next yeah it's probably once you get a once you get a big win with cage Wars they tend to sort of make you the aide uh Ross for Academy irelands Matthew Elliott is taking on Luca Bando uh matchu he he was originally in cage Warriors then he did the Octagon Challenge Series now he's back with cage where he's got a win last time out in Dublin didn't he so this one is a big fight for the boogy man yeah he's he's back in the featherweight uh weight class is far more natural to him than he was doing octagon at lightweight um look Matthews wrestling is as Elite as it gets really uh on the island of Ireland he is a top-notch Grappler um I just think when he does get those takedowns I just want to make sure he's very active uh from that top position this time I know uh you know he had that very controversial fight against Ryan Chelly which H Ryan got the nod in and I think hopefully he's learned from that lesson he's back in the cage wies yellow cloes and look again like I'm not just saying it because they're Irish but I'd favor Matthew ell to get the win here speaking of Ryan shell he's taking on Nick Bagley and like Ry was on a bit of a trajectory I know when he was fighting in the tree Arena he lost to Tobi yeah yeah but like with a win here against Nick Bagley he sort of puts him back amongst the fedway totle conversation yeah it absolutely does H look Nick bagy is a cage Warriors veteran um he is an absolute physical specimen he's as strong as KNX um he also won on that D Card uh in he won on that D Card sorry in the ODS not the last one the one previous so look I think I think this is a very very tough fight for Ryan CH but it's definitely a winnable one for him and I think um I think this one will probably be as mentally as tough a fight as it will be um you know skill-wise as tough a fight and this this time he's getting back in there against someone who's in the upper restant of the division and he'll have to go in there and make sure he gets his hand raised yeah and also Adam shell will be fighting the following week in Manchester on the Thursday a cage Wars 175 Manchester obviously yeah absolutely and don't for don't forget um also on this card we have uh GTA sector not that thing man but Jesus man sorry you B right uh Team Ryo is very on J Harris has taking on joani Scott it says here in the bantamweight division but it's obviously the flyweight division Ross J Harris has become a bit of a star in cage Wars um I remember before he made his debut we were talking to the cage Wars people were like this this is the guy to follow the stuff he says is absolute golden um in the bill up to this fight now I like obviously he was over in Thailand training but I saw some clips he was saying that he's getting a lot of attention and he doesn't know how to really deal with it what way have you seen Jer in the gym and what what do you expect from Jer in this fight as well look J Jer is very much a student of the game he's he's someone who's constantly trying to learn off the people around him he's also very very keen on like sharing techniques he you know know he might start Shar sharing a technique and then someone else might start sharing technique he is someone who loves martial arts he's been engrossed in the sport since he's 10 years old and not only that like he's got like an infectious personality he's someone who people love to be around he has all these one liners that come straight off the cuff um I think especially with h Lonnie kavner H going on to Dana W Contender series like he's the person who cage Warriors would love to build and put flyweight belt round uh round his waist yeah definitely yeah and then um also tkfs sorry where here now James Webb Jam web finally announced that he's taking on Adam bansky in the live heavyweight division H Ross James Webb heavyweight division yeah James web was he middleweight champion or was he yeah middleweight champion this is Debut a l heavyweight so uh can't wait to see it um I always remember seen him fighting Patty mcari and just like the sheer size of his back I was like this guy is an absolute monster I think he's going to be a real problem at like heavyweight um I think he'll probably have a speed advantage and like I said like his his grappling game is really really good and I think if he gets a hold of some of these guys like heavyweight I I think he's gonna be a real problem for them and also he's fighting his opponent on short no so I expect nothing less than get his hand raised yeah it's not very de deep division in cage where it's a heavweight division so like he can almost go for a total shot next uh Ross Jordan v chanic is on the card again against Adrian Kea um you got you got to think Jordan vennis is racking up the WIS hoping for a danway contender series call up you got to think that's that's where he's at and he said he's not interested in the belts anymore he's he's hoping for it like Luke Roy is getting a Dano Contender series call up Lonnie kav is getting a danao contender series call up you got to believe believe that uh Jordan v janers is looking for one of those also yeah and also the interim Flyway title is on is is up for grabs Nicholas Le blond is taking on Amir malikpur um hack was meant to fight Le blond but uh this is the fight um I'd actually go Nicholas Leeland so would I I think he's got great finishing capabilities and uh sometimes a flyweight you don't see see people uh finish many fights but uh this guy is an absolute killer and um was a did he be taka I have that right did not be WR Curtis Ryan Curtis sorry was it yeah yeah I think so yeah he got him in that Bulldog choke wasn't it yeah anyway yeah that was actually Ron Curtis's last fight as well um yeah well then cage Warriors make sure to check it out the Saturday like as we said there's going to be one two three four five six Fighters fighting out of Irish James so uh it like it definitely shouldn't be missed uh a few things I want to just jump over quickly Rose n un has won over the weekend against Tracy Cortez by decision we put a poll out then on the Monday who do people want to see Rose fight next either a Macy Barber or B Aaron blanchfield Ross who do the people decide they want to see tog Rose fight next Macy Barber yeah you're correct 61% R Us are you surprised with that no I think I think like Aon bfield is so young like I feel like that fight will happen eventually you know I mean like it's not like Ma barar isn't but I feel like she's has a larger name in the UFC at the moment even though I think Aaron blenfield is actually the better of the two yeah then uh this weekend the UFC Fight Night is back Amanda Lemos is taking on Verna Jan Dera and one of the cards that not everyone is looking forward to seeing um I actually put a qu before I get into the people's questions Ross just answer this question for me what are you most looking forward to this weekend cage Warriors or the UFC cage Warriors hands down yeah like sometimes UFC just put out too many cards and it's just like is this one in the Apex like it's just just not great card all like um Ross talking about ignore my question what is it in the Apex I don't [ __ ] know uh talking about big boxing fights Mike Perry is taking on J Paul this weekend this was actually meant to be the weekend that was J Paul was meant to be fighting Mike tyon what you make of this fo and what do you expect from this fo I've only seen a small bit of build up for it um look I think it's a f that's somewhat captivating uh I'll be cheering for Mike Perry and not I'm not being like a Jake Paul hater I've sort of gotten over that phase but uh I just really like Mike Perry uh I think he's top of the range I think he's probably pound-for-pound had the best post fight UFC career out of anyone so uh long may it last and I'd love to see the bkfc king go in there and be Jake Paul yeah this one's the obviously the weade is going to suit Jake Paul but uh nobody has that dog in them like Mike per woof wof Jesus man the Apex Ross it is in the Apex your favorite thanks Bo I'd love to go the Apex but like I just don't like watching the fights as much there anymore Mandos 37 years old Vera janre Roba 39 years old 36 oh man Jesus if they the rank I think I think go for lamos on that one yeah I would as well but I think if you have to rank the main events this year so far that has to been the top three best ones yeah yeah absolutely okay I think it's time to get into the questions that were sent by the people uh first of all everyone for thanks for tuning in uh really appreciate when you get involved on the show asking questions no matter how good or bad the questions are first one kilan SE hey L do you any recent interviews with kayin talking about tarez klian bought that episode for you you yeah but you record this episode just for you kill you okay I'm getting onto it now here we go there's actually a good few questions here so uh I'm going to start at the bottom Jack kville MMA says Nate Kelly scared of Damen mcgan what does Nate Nate the Great Kelly's name always get put with Daman mcgan and is Nate the gr scared of Damen mcgan I think Daman McAn at the moment is the consensus number one amateur Flyway in the country and now look there's obviously other ones who are right there with them um a few in his own gym kieron kugan Omas Oliver H Shay Cleveland like there's some top the range ones and uh Nate Kelly is is the war Hughes getting the most men Spotlight in the country so I think um whether they want to me or not I'd say there's a a small bit of jealousy and the mentor recognition Nate the Great Kelly's getting compared to what Daman mcan's getting on a global scale um I think the you know the guys who in fi are trying to get that make that fight happen and you know get Damon GG and that Spotlight in that shine and then you know the guys in pfl um Bellator are trying to match Nate favorably uh you know how he gets his hand rais each time uh I would love to see the fight at amateur and why not but both are looking at putting on four ends clubes soon so I think once they both put on four round CL I think that fight goes out the window yeah that fight should be easy made it quite easily because uh as you said Damian fights out Fai Paul Hugh's team obviously Nate the Great is in SBG and uh I saw now there they're adding more Irish fighters to that Bellator London yeah uh so next question is Devon cutter MMA when do you think we will see McGregor back there was actually there was a bit of more talk about McGregor there because of Donald Trump getting shot um Dana was on with Pat McAfee and he was saying that he's thinking Conor is gonna be back this year Connor and chander had it back and forth talking about Donald Trump saying see you this year so Ross what what are you feeling right now I'm thinking the end of year like the Vegas event so what what what have we got have we got a UFC 305 pay-per-view yet no is that the sphere oh 305 is arisna and trick oh yeah okay so we have that right 306 I think it's going to be omali versus morab in the sphere is three going to be toore defend his belt I would say whether it's against Holloway or volkanovski and 308 I'm not too sure 309 is an MSG and I think they're going to Stipe versus um Jones Jon Jones so I think Jones got Jones has got in trouble again yeah but I don't think that I don't think that'll have a factor on that when's he not in trouble like yeah exactly he's better when he's in trouble anyway uh 310 I think is a December card I think that's when we see I think it's normally around December 14th I think that's when we get McGregor versus chanler Merry Christmas everyone yeah that will be a good Christmas for Everyone um I iore Amore deore J hello J well here we go he actually sent in two questions I'll start with this one do we think John kav has become bigger than just a coach well he is more than just a coach he is more than just a coach he's like a businessman like TR Alta is like a multi-million dollar company like it's on it's on the stock exchange so like yeah definitely and like obviously he holds like such influences with uh promotions like pfl and Bellator and you know I mean like when they come to AR like you know I mean like he's at the table like letting them know what he thinks is good or bad and like whether people love it or hate it like you know I mean he's earned a lot of sway uh in this country for around the world his opinion carries you know what I mean so uh carries weight so uh yeah he's he's far more than just a coach yeah and also from J also why do you think more top level prospects are choosing the train abroad I don't think I don't necessarily think it's more now than ever but I think like places like bang are becoming more like I think they're becoming more accessible like back in the day like um you would have seen like uh Joe doy uh Paul Redmond and Dean Barry I know just three people for a fact all went over to try star and trained over in can that's at one stage and Miles price went over and trained in AKA like Fighters have always traveled and trained I think just you see it more now on social media yeah also as you said about bangt in Thailand and the fighters like to go over and just like sort of immerse themselves in the culture and new bodies as well yeah new bodies like I feel likea in the in the better weather I feel like you know you have the opportunity to you know train and then recover probably faster and then obviously they're over there just concentrating on fighting they don't have their home life to get in the way yeah it's I think it's a good thing like it actually it is a good thing and what it it just a lot of these Fighters they have to realize as well that they need to be creating content Non-Stop and also shout out to Amy scy who's one of the best content creators in the country and she's only an amateur but uh yeah shut up 1% better every day baby yeah but this is the fighters need to I must be doing this creating the content getting people more invested more interested like like I know it's a summer now here in Ireland and it doesn't feel like it but when you see people away on holidays you're actually like so interested like because like you look out the window and it's [ __ ] raining so uh it is a good thing and uh long may continue abolutely Al kosi asks will you come to San Diego to do a live show cage where event wants to spare and he wants to get out that checkbook we'll be there yeah we're gonna have to ask Gran B to sort that out uh DH Newman next Irish fighter after Danny to sign for the UFC yeah so uh Danny is going to do road to the UFC which was predominantly been like an Asian uh Market thing um so she'll be fighting on that uh she got a contract for for it uh it was on our story although I don't know whether it was public story or not but here's me spilling the beans one way or the other uh next a fter to make the UFC it's actually hard to say sometimes because um there are some people who obviously are large stars and like you don't know what the story is with with their contract like I don't know how many fights James Galler has less than his contract like but if his contract was up that's probably something who the UFC will be interested in looking at pardon I have an answer okay and well I'll get let you TR your in a sec and then obviously like James Sheen is the cage Warriors champion at the moment so like you know I mean like if he beats uh Janis bachar who was on The Ultimate Fighter um that's that's something to look at but like I wouldn't count Patty MC or on because I feel like they're already in there but go on B you say who you going to say I was going to say paty your arm so uh what do I have to give another one now no it's okay you can say paty your armor that's like two you can't say them too it's like geez who can I say oh yeah I think either paty mcari or ran Shaban yeah like obviously James she you said good out there well these are the ones who are doing the things to get into the UFC if that makes sense the things that people have seen um yeah they're probably the main ones I I look at right now yeah right as of right now with the closest at the top of them top of the mountain yeah obviously there's loads of young young Fighters but they still have to keep winning you know yeah and who knows someone like J Harris like wins once twice more I wouldn't be surprised if Dan White tried to get him on the contender series as well yeah well J came to mind but Jer obviously has to keep going uh DH Newman also asks same question as Deon cutter uh when do you think and Cher fight we're saying the end of the year that's what we're thinking yeah H Shane Mack gin are you interested in an Australian correspondent for the Irish that are fighting down under laughing emoji um I don't think we've ever like invited someone into the party with us to do it but if there are some other Fighters that uh are fighting down there and Shane you want to make us aware of it let us know but uh shout out to Alan Philpot because uh he's the main man repping down there yeah I think like Alan philipot and um benzo Hughes yeah the only two that come to mind right now um okay spearing detail one of the biggest legends that always gets in touch um he goes hi Lads great to be back bit of a left field one what do you think is next for Jordan fu henich yeah I think I think we touched on that on the cage Warriers I think he's looking for a contender series shot obviously he's fighting this weekend it's a catch white out9 he's moved dropped the lightwe uh I'm looking forward to I really enjoy watching Jordan VI CH fight um that man gives it all in there every time I know you can say that about every people but like when we watch that PA youth fight like he has no quit them and uh yeah I think he's an absolutely phenomenal fighter I think he's got the looks and he's also got a bit of personality to him as well so I would love to see him sh yeah definitely uh following on from that question he goes uh is Jordan fenich following Paul Hugh the steps fighting contract no title fights are asking for any um I'm pretty sure it's a slightly different scenario with Jordan ven I'm pretty sure he's not fighting for the title um because he wants to get that UFC call up um but again I wouldn't be surprised if uh pfl or Bellator came in with a large water cash for Jordan vew tennis that he didn't necessarily say no also when you win the title you have to fight three fights is it is it you you're basically you're toy into a new contract then yeah and then so yeah yeah so yeah that's well some of the people don't know that you know um also shout out to schade nein fighting on cage Collision this Sunday Russ as well yeah I couldn't see much about that card I El don't know what weight classes that either didn't say anywhere yeah it didn't say it either but we move on uh next week is a big show we're going to be breaking down UFC Manchester Trail four we should have a very big guest on the show as well and also cage Legacy Dublin is going down as well there'll be two pro points on the card Max L will be fighting on it and so Conor McCarthy Conor McCarthy finally getting a new opponent yeah it's going to be a great fight see I'm looking forward to the card um great that and KY got a replac opponent and a better opponent as well and then uh obviously Max L taking another step up in competition as well uh I like the Co Way event Main Event now I wasn't that Keen on the last com event yeah well I mean we're here to give our opinions and also as I said earlier on the show on the Thursday cage Warriors Manchester be gone down R Russ just recapping the show we had the dawn on it's great to see him back great to see him coming off a win as well last time when he said he was a loser I felt a bit heartbroken for him but uh he's way better crack when he's coming off for win uh we covered the UFC not an amazing card this weekend all the action will be looking at cage Warriors 174 London followed
