Energized Show hosts interview Owen Roddy, Conor McGregor’s long-time striking coach at Team John Kavanagh / SBG Ireland, recorded during early COVID-19 lockdown in Ireland. Roddy describes discovering MMA via a UFC 1 VHS, finding Andy Rowan’s school class, then training with John Kavanagh, David Jones, Peter, and John Donley before moving to SBG Finglas when the school club closed. He explains his nickname Rowdy, his own Cage Contenders win, a subsequent loss to Wilson Hayes, and retiring from fighting after injuries to focus on coaching—work he says he was always destined for, including years cleaning mats and teaching kids when he could not pay gym fees. Much of the conversation covers Conor McGregor’s rise through Cage Warriors and the UFC, the Alvarez and Diaz performances, the Mayweather boxing spectacle, and Conor bringing Irish fans and teammates along with him. Roddy also discusses his online MMA fit workouts during lockdown, Conor’s charitable hospital PPE donations, the rebound of Irish regional shows like Cage Legacy Fighting Championship, Clan Wars, and Chaos, and his view that winning finishes matter more than promotion choice for reaching the UFC. He closes excited for Conor’s return after the Donald Cerrone win, expecting a Nate Diaz trilogy eventually, and describing how his gym and family now run smoothly when he travels for camp.

Pro Wrestling it was the Purefoy and Nana seeing obviously a young boys Gracie choking people a little skinny young hope is Gracie killing everybody and I was like I need to find out where this is going on yeah I am I checked the paper that's where we used to see all the ads for martial arts back in the in the end of the Herald and I ran a few cloves it was an anime and then just by chance I was in sixth year in school and I'm walking through we're through the school hall pass a library and I see this this stocky feather showing kids after they were a virus and I was like holy [ __ ]

blocked there was more and I'm up on stage schibetta boxing for a ages because John figs and wanted to have gladiator music before my actual barked at me music so it was under stage and it's taken a bit uncomfortable cause I didn't know what to do I was at the shadow box and I was at the community and then I was gonna stand there and I'm getting ready to walk down with a tank on and welcome to the cage O'Brien I popped his head in locked out there's more ants alright give a little old man I love you Paris I can't give you a hook I will [ __ ] you and what I thought just just there walking off dancing I didn't realized I don't even think he watched habit for you see did you turn to chat or one of the ring girls all be in trouble Shannon Gilbert II like great art I was only ammonia decayed you see I born he's not even looking he's like that talking to the pool well then he say yeah so yeah it was my pool yeah that's dope that's up I'm gonna play heatedly he's a head-on collision that is Oh bro era that's an amazing story well there was a massive fire at times I wasn't that again a sound guarantee yeah that was big for yeah he was a you ever see bet it was like it was going it you know just let people know that were on the level or on the level to fight in the UFC and people from the UFC or previous Indy web staying it was a huge Foley it was it was meant there on I think I don't know whether it went out low it was on TV you know we were cage contenders John fakes and you know although he's a bleeding nothing he managed to get it in stone like TV deals and get it in the paper so it was it was a huge a catapult for origin made our show and oh it was one of the guys that was out there at the the top of the tier for that show were one serves up yeah so much later hahaha you were like obviously after died after being a UC vet this is back in 2012 now bored I did really like what was sort of being said here what we sort of thinking that time because obviously the goal it was to get to USC and yeah we but what was sort of gone through your head there and after you know yeah my goal was the same as this but was the same as everybody's goal and well it's a professional and a naval well you know at that time it was to get to the UFC you know you know we started in may years ago and we go over was get to the UFC make enough money to buy gas that was it and you know after the GUP and uncommon feel a very difficult for sound I'm gonna get you know coming through tough tough around and I'm getting the wind was huge I think was only a couple months after that the kind of things only two or three months after I kind of wandered we won the second belt or wherever and then he got into the UFC so I was I was I was hoping that I was I was on that road I was definitely on that road for them then I don't yeah I heard my we next four against Wilson Hayes which which I lost you know there was like I know I obviously did they told you last for a and also like Wilson what some reason hazy he also funny obviously training partner with Dominick Cruz as well like to fray holding back pills as well but I got like after that like I mean obviously the oxy we're gonna get into what happened if people haven't already seen but like like a lot of people not like a lot of athletes some people we've had in the show it's just a lot of stuff comes down to timing like we had shown him out even there on the show like two days ago one here he said like the perfect home coming into the contender series then like Snoop Dogg shared tomato everything blows up you know me same way like it certain things that happen a certain pull they're not getting that caught up to do see like look what happening boy like give it a different any sort of regrets you know I'm sure it's very hard to have any rest no no very happy way yeah I didn't get to do actually of course like you know that wasn't my fault after the lawsuit was a nice to be enjoyed that for you but when I said I had moments to win that for you and I think I you know I thought I wanted to check around and I thought you know coming out when today toward I just look in the stronger for yeah well I got clipped and I I lost and I wanted to come back after that you know injuries stop me from coming back so it's a bit I was a bit annoyed it was a bit down for a good world I you know we check to see and you know I you know I'll try be bested see if we could get around the injuries pull folks and I couldn't and then I made a decision and after a couple of months of engine to to just focus on coaching and and took me on a [ __ ] boiled right now that's pretty made you like Topher and a harder and better coach to be like right you still felt like it something left to get there so you're gonna transition and just like give it that extra bit you know yeah yeah they come in look what even what party stone as well we're in as well like with his gym like it's yes you're a lot of a lot of a top employers if they get fully used and everybody go into house and put still like stop Rudy they feel like left gift to give to the game so I think that's what that's here I was always going to be a coach I think you know if I coached for many years world for you and our coach in Johnston you know pretty much after the forced Monta tale of China with John of his coaching classes I think you know I was teaching kids class right and I've always coached and and I think from teaching kids classes from from an early stage you learn to be patient and you know you lantern out it's it's a long road and yeah you know he only expects small steps from compete but you can't expect people to be superstars straightaway although they're the few the command that are unique and have some some attributes and some coordination that is just a little bit better than everybody and they did you know they're the unicorn said once you try and keep you know the world called Conor McGregor one of these boys that came in where there which was he just had it all from they you see someone who's like absolutely beautiful to coach just because even way he sees things himself is so unique you mean like his taunt and his precision yeah I mean obviously you can help enhance that board that's something he naturally has yeah exactly like a lot of the greats out that they it's probably cuz they spend more time like you know I spend a lot of time what you can find you know what the tape on people and whatnot but like you know you'd be getting messages off corner at between in the morning 4:00 in the morning what do you think of this what you think that so when everyone else is sleeping he's he's still thinking about the game and the great celita and they you know didn't they get very creative with our own soil and they don't really implement they don't really imitate other people they just implement their own game and you know and that comes from your personality and your attributes and stuff like that for all the greats are very yeah you know all the greats don't look the same as each other they're all very unique you know remain they all have their own soil and that's what it would say - you know for its coming up as well it's yeah it's great look a Conor and say look he's got a you know it was this really well in those that we know trying an implementer but you shouldn't just imitate him because you're never gonna be as good as room and you know you know me and it's not you know there's so much that goes into being a foyer and personality attributes that all comes into just be yourself and be alone for you know I mean then you can be you can be the number one you know I'll see Connors had some unbelievable performances throws UFC career but when he fought Alvarez I actually thought that was the greatest challenge of performance anyone's ever put on do you agree with that or like were you happier with the album 30 and second stolen dulce I think one I think one thing is an Conor was very a he'd been very consistent in point he came in the lead he was in tip-top shape he'd been walking consistently for a couple years and it built up to this moment the following alvarez and you know that he was just one point he was just flawless you know everest is very very tough he's durable he'd be tricky and other as just couldn't even get off the mark he just he just caught everything we we need web browsers for every one second goes and just go yeah so as I said you can top that up as well it probably was like I've heard so many great memories were walking back honor although and Diaz coming back off a loss secondly as for you there's another nada you know huge moment for the team but a very big moment for Conor to to come true you know to overcome adversity and go back in and deal with and not change anything you know some fighters with we'll look at that I'm gonna do exactly the same we're gonna look at what happens and we're gonna we're gonna fix it you know it's very brave to things talk like that as well a lot of people wouldn't wouldn't have to have the guts to do what he did yeah I mean every memory Walker Makana is is a huge memory and the oil coin has surpassed the previous like I know rostrum to the toilet that the the main ones now but like if you look back the very very first one went in in Sweden and then it was obviously the first time going Sweden like it yourself uncountable compete and so I the first first one going out like well what were your feelings like own in for it like for the first time out there in Sweden and like yeah like an has like weird like it did still got that same feeling for each for you cuz they've just got bigger and bigger and bigger you know yeah well I mean the force yeah you know it's even the Conor that just storms true everybody you know and in Cage Warriors and you know getting the two baths and Cage Warriors and then getting the knowledge for the year for the year the USA Sam it was a big test and you were like holy [ __ ] can he do it on the noisy like you know can this is you know apparently this is a different caliber for both think they're not we compared it like you know all the other orders can organizations that are pro level there's not a huge difference it's it's it's it's a lot harder to deal with the pressure but kind of just eats up that pressure and laughter so it was near breaking yeah I remember walking this arena and Sweden you know AB lineage looked huge he looked small the next day but he was you on the cheese man he's a big fella book like you just you know Connor we're kind of joined it kind of joined the gym on stab winning its voice about he kind of brought this belief that I am he was unstoppable and that we wouldn't stop and he just said the only things you know killing people are knocking people out and I'm gonna be it is an evil achieve I'm gonna get this belt so everyone just started believe me and then everyone was there doing good I mean I was first I didn't really but that's forcefully I was nervous and there but he went in and did it in the stores yeah I remember remember they just brought out I remember it was just brought a note on the back the micro his youtube channel dad like behind the scenes I have you got his tooth on and then you and I are from the backer and after and like you were just Aryan like yeah you were this comfortable in cameras we're damn well yeah now it's a mate like it happened that all that document it is unbelievable but then like teens got grown and grown and grown and you know like like you're a very humble guy yeah it must be like this is unreal because we're getting like a five-star everything dan Reid yeah I mean it was it was a shot instead instead like almost from something I like only Mike Tyson could really understand yeah obviously yeah yeah so after after force for you if you know kind of Kona had arrived and you know he hit the you know he hit the big time straight off the bar and I was here it was it was a war and it was crazy just to think that you know we're on this journey where you know we didn't know then we are a coin near the corner had something special early but until you until you win those belts and until you are the biggest the biggest name in you know in combat sports are one of the biggest names in sports until you wear diapers and you don't know and we didn't know for just every everything he did he just kept crying and a chlorine I'm like the next was was a with his Holloway in emboss and I'm like [ __ ] he's broke he's broke the US and then he's back and he's fighting in there for capital of the world Vegas where they're where they're Pola and you can't get bigger than this and then it's back to Boston for a fever see it would just kept rolling and he was talking and he was the one that one thing is well I kind of did was he brought everyone with him everyone the country you know when we had we didn't really have an else going on at that time you know we didn't have we didn't walk or power over yeah we didn't have an ambassador and we didn't have a Paris and that point around and said like this is for you go ahead you know we had no horn and one direction and that wasn't as prominent like when he said oh I don't know she wasn't definite was approached nothing wasn't probably yeah you know so but yeah so like it was just a kind of a little foil upon the orders people's irises and I said look I'm going on this journey we're all on we're all in it together come deal with icons come join me and everyone got behind and it was just it was insane and then the rest of their orders for you start making the TFC yeah and then it just it just kept building and build and it was it was an it is a crazy crazy story and believable thing to be pried off I think PC Carol is references who say no it was our like Italian 90 or USA 94 you know around with the Conor McGregor hair courts and everything like it was a [ __ ] believe everyone going to it then you see Dublin happens as well I'm like everybody chemo on every no dress is emitted it's gas Ali I don't think that Connor coaches goes towards the gold just taunts the gold you know it's amazing that everyone was going around with it that they're born everyone's going around with the tiki bar was everybody was was in a treaty peace you just it just calm down the road only it's a talent through these he was reckoned at all it was crazy and it still there's mana those are my the way by the doors were like it's you know it is a visa because you know with what so many puts everything that are on the lawn you know and says he's gonna do things and works very hard whoops unbelievably hard to achieve those goals and you deserve everything you get you know I mean a lot of people won't say hey I'm gonna put it out there there who need to be afraid of lose and now are afraid of what people would think well I think the people are kind of that says it has all the glory look at Mary Hussein stuff as well so it's very small sect way of just saying stuff like even like the auger team took off like I mean your football team started playing better like a the women's teams again into the Hockey World Cup that I think was a symbolic oil they're everything like a dictator they're winning championships might be fun as well like I know I'm missing something here where's old me I don't know I said that first pulled ahead that was everyone sort of it was like look he's saying that he's doing it always should trying to be more confident self and look what you can achieve and then yeah everyone I think what somebody one person opens the door and you know one person doors what's you know to be impossible then there once once one person does it and everybody can say it's actually possible everyone knows it's like that in for minimal the prominent lawyer yeah couldn't be Don could be couldn't could meet on not humanly possible one person those I forget to go his name and he's now known I think it was within a couple of months you know 40 40 people at on so yeah yeah well could you 5k in 40 minutes as well it's great turn all that before we even get into the later met demand there's boy with the movie and everything you're just sorry Connor at the hallway true like yeah like I mean did you fully get to see all out or like but but because I can everybody's - like you were there you were living it there to hold home right in the met the center of it like whereas like everyone back here in our own was just like quiet is going on you know yeah yeah I still don't know you know I like to look back on saying and chains and stop yeah I'm still moving we're still living it you know yeah you know Jonathan's video I was as well this videos as well that's one thing the Italian on you me using only four it didn't have you know yeah yeah so it's all I did I loved watching that did the documentary yeah we went to the premiere and I hadn't seen and it was watching backup was like even then at that time it was like Jesus man look over what we're pirate I look what kind of gonna look at what we should you know help them do you know it's been a it's been insane and I wish a you know when I'm a lot older when I'm you know 60 or whatever I can Kennedy say I left I left something behind as well they're gonna have to be honest they're gonna be the statue you Connor and John was also Connor he was also like you know he give you props he gave John props he give Sergei pops you give item props like he was always couldn't give him back and even to this day so come back but look I'm giving away PPE and all the hospital's their meanings only in chrome hospital yesterday I think a lot of people who like to think you know he's this bad boy or whatever he's always like Stone Cold Steve Austin but a ha actor something Haiti like he's like a bag or whoever loves you know it ya know I mean obviously like you know things you say like in regard like you know you know before for each and getting royal to open all of that and you know that's that's part that I kill him you know to me I bought people don't really and you know you know he's been in the media for some other things that haven't been great but you know we're all only human and we all make mistakes or whatever but you very rarely get to see all the Google boss you know not I mean people clothes on do you know how anymore and then have years and he never leaves anybody behind he brings everybody in he keeps people there you know I've been there from day one you know the stuff we stay on for therefore the force responders never as well I'm the town aeration fairy you know you wouldn't even know they meant the donations probably just important to people and it's a you know sick people and see kids and you know we either was a lot but he doesn't get the credit for all the chords but he always gets he always gets a note for so many bad but just that's definitely one thing I want to bring up because like obviously covering mixed martial arts like yeah like there's not that many opportunities that myself and Ross have gotten from it you don't mean like we do call football as well and Ruby or them like it seemed like no one want to touch you with like what a pole would cause you covered MMA so we don't wanna go near that but then like Connors there becomes a champ champ like I mean any other sport you would have been given a statue no jokes like you I mean those statues random Buddha then also like it if you do something wrong and then ever it all of a sudden people come out of nowhere you know and it's like where we use what we do to him gold for the country it don't seem like it only seems like he's like almost rebelled against being knocked back by the country I know they're the people the hard work and working class people would have been back home and then as I got bigger and bigger and bigger people would support and for their I think like the newspapers know if they had a back too much beginning I think he would have been I think you just felt out of place like not you almost felt like he was do it he couldn't do any better but he still wouldn't get the plaudits for it you don't wanna be accepted I think that was maybe and then obviously being such a superstar it's hard to feel like a natural anywhere you know like he's a he's an absolutely phenomenal I mean for me I find it hard to be Jamie and Connor shields it's funny very different I think I think everyone would find it very difficult he you know he carries down his partner about it to him you know he still he still you know if it's a chosen you know handshakes and pictures that he needs to take he takes like I mean I get a small little taste of that when you know if you're coming out after the weigh-ins and you're trying to jump in because with me he won't leave after the way adds I won't go home with the rest I'm allowed to move away from there go somewhere but even I thought like people are my lovin a just for a picture and I'm trying to run away and all this is insane so and that's only it totally nee little taste of what he has the video with so you know it's it's not easy to come even for Petula's car this has been for coming on the show like doing this coming on they call me they said we've had like so many of the quixote made form a teammate's everything like I'm the show hope you like your looks which remains a story terrible like like we were actually so appreciate to get like first-hand information you know yeah but people say you're the noises going in the game and like I like everyone's maybe Stephen one Roy Thomson poor lady you're definitely pushing them cool if I think I was a crush on him honest to god Kelly's like oh he's the nicest person ever ever met as a Kelly I'm literally sitting here but you can't he's next level would you like to work with him yeah I'd love to pick his brain and he's he's got a phenomenal story man yeah I'm on his YouTube channel so ever I do have a little have a little nose in stuff like that phenomenal for a very intelligent for you know and he's unique II you see it isn't this is immature he doesn't copy anyone he's his own for he has his our own story and that's what made him the superstar that he is as well we were over 40 minutes into this conversation and no one said the words fluid money Mayweather yeah you have to get into that obviously that came up in conversation people saying like Floyd Mayweather first Conor McGregor like like myself lost a few old videos on em you're like already amazing but like it didn't really seem like a go happen you know like Porter tell us about it when you got the call being like forget a new care this is not gonna happen help I said no Floyd is not going to slow he's not gonna take the risk of have him come in there that was not gasps it was best Conor McGregor 501 if he goes and kicks flow in the face you know when they can establish as soon as Conor's management was talking to Floyd's management once they once ever heard that I was like a new UFC bar mediating as well so once I won't ahead all parties were talking I was like this is deafening gonna happen because it's too much more need to be made you have you have the current most popular sports person I think Connor was the most popular sports person on the planet probably run our limit or not low me maybe ran out when to compete Conner is well that's really for the DA's camp I missed him that old ones there that they for some reason we'd ever say it yeah yeah and it also went you know Taylor was pretty party don't know where I was listen apologize like I feel a bit feel a bit left over the post yeah Carl Matthews you know you have to be on the ball everyone just pops him before you know so it does be a those be my never know who was going to tone up at the gym to watch him train I come over to the guy for a map yeah the box and that the spectacle it was it was insane it was insane and you know for me you know I'm not a I'm not a straight boxing coach you know I'm an MMA coached him and so there was a lot of pressure on me and I felt I was in the other sport you know when I'm nervous updating on anything I just I just say to myself give it a hundred percent don't watch all the tape you can destroy it look for holes you know which you know there wasn't many more there is like nobody's perfect there's nodes and everybody's together and you come from you can find all over the people's game games and come up a game plan instead to try and try and attack that but it was a lot of pressure it was loads of pressure on corner which he and swallowed up and laughter you know as he doors we went under Ward's Hall hebes and there's another world tour the world tour was like when did you ever see Africa 10,000 10,000 people for press conferences and and different cities all over the world it was mad and then you know it was a great performance by Konnor and we we had we had a couple of we had with the game around the corner well about something we knew Floyd would switch elope but as we said we didn't know that he would return into the pressure foyer and electronic you know he throw shots on his arms and stuff like that and they can't get forward but they and then we made a few mistakes I don't think we could correct those and I definitely think no you know Connor could definitely need he [ __ ] get the nod the next time on that one you know because he landed his shots he landed more shots than anyone else landed on Floyd and it was only fatigue that I stopped them you know I actually remember looking at the scorecards are for you and they were like very warm soil from a weather do you think that that's just cuz box is a bit cropped or what sorry are you not saying injured yes and then obviously didn't like like ever since I saw that all the fight maybe believe something there from just moans like just go for like myself even rust on this podcast they get it it didn't matter peeper like two years or Sox we're just like here we want to do this again you're just reading mate like push me that little bit further like yo main quarter yeah I'm like when he knocked out although I was like this guy can do it like he and so I was like hey Luke Lee not just like oh he just needs to do is twitch for once and he'll knock him out I just believe you know like I'm see you know me I only believe what I see and I just I can see it happen I know we didn't have come boy I had the police and also I always smell like very biased I mean that song made you know Connor corner when you because we see in kana do why he doing it it just it just gives you a bit of confidence that don't care though you know just a matter what anyone thinks if you want to do something go deal with you know you may fall a few poems learn from your mistakes get up do it again go again you know physically your brain is a computer it's gonna fall you're gonna fall on you're gonna fall down everyone's gonna laugh don't do it just cancel it for you just better keep pushing through nobody came back it's only the people are actually you know don't listen to that voice and just do it anyway they're two people that have some success I believe you know no man so we are all just a couple years ago oh just said to me selves just say yes to everything it's a nightmare use it I'm gonna come do this yeah do it yeah yeah cuz I'm like I don't want to have the fear of not doing something I'm not I'm missing an opportunity so I always say yes to everything which is not a grating at forums work in our eventually I say yes or but after a while I don't loiter or it doesn't suit me I do it or at least they get able to go so say yes to everything for drugs with you coach and Connor and Roy can unturned your pains do you want a percentage a fluffy you know when you did the Bay Mac was better but look if you don't talk business Voltaire free like you didn't so many mass events but like what was the what was the best one that you're at because I got abused you told them you obviously have a 205 and the Mayweather one like yeah Mendes one obviously alder what Mike what what's the what's the best for a man like one knew what the ticket to the right show you know the one in the ring so I mean I see I was gonna say the one of the Rings Rachel Oh actually that's a funny story Connor so kind of stayed you within the ring so they can show you a little bit they had a cry yourself but that's when people there is a can't really pick one I mean I just I'm just happy to be that's the thing it is so made smart but as I said I'm from Bali more you know you're looking to I don't want to be saying but looking to do this you know everybody it's you know yeah what we we make a rudder leaves generated in our we we do what we can but like you know you're not expected to do great it's like beans like six or seven Champions League finals like if we pick yeah yeah you know just that's that's weird my life was when they might I've just been good you know no we're very fortunate now is of a beautiful wife and kids I have a whole over me head I've been I've seen it you know all aspects of like you know I mean you know the top of that's here in a department develop seen at all experience all and no man that's that's a law world spans you know like Oh see there's the first one we probably got to have a chapel I got like from the outside look at here like where's your crowd of you and the whole team and like what is Thorne has changed a lot of people's mindsets on like just the way living life and gone first off it's it's really made a new wave of making younger people now cook like the immense people have started and doing every may now just to be coffee one day have a push down to do something because they may not take there and make career but that the confidence might make them like go for a promotion or tell the boss to [ __ ] off or go for that personally fancy I mean a lot of different aspects of life yeah man you gotta you gotta get off and you have to do what you know because what up was you're gonna be you know you have to walk you know mean you have to make money and these are things that you know you have to do but like if you find some that you'll often do that learning often make you money and on a minute and I mean you don't have to be a millionaire you know don't meet me all you need is only needed and by locating oil in most of us most of us you know there's a lot of harm is still out there perfect most of us are feeling okay we have a roof overhead we've got family around us and we you know for living are not we're not in Africa where you know in indirect straighter you know the media nobody's warned countries for now like I mean they could people with absolute millions they really change mindset you know in some child like your family there will be a your food and the food and electricity and they could be like kind of the infinite before that yeah more watch the end of the show they're very thin I was gone an hour yeah yeah II was I was like I was I was neither gonna have to talk to kids it was weird [Laughter] and then if he's in the bank you don't it's it's not even it's not even real it's just it's just so the people that are around you you know that's that's what's important what's making the current situation there was well of the gourmet because I go see better for I've never come over like multiple times you've also you're being on a brave as well yeah yeah exactly what you sort of make it the our scene now because did you come back yeah yeah a lot of people it's don't know what avenues to go down maybe and you've been there done that you know yeah it's it's there's a big the big swords now were orders for is comin back he and we missed the call in a generation or we missed it you know a group of four other people because of unfortunate that the debts of Chaco Valley own you know where or - animecon it went into a little town there for a bit but you know all the work that I'm doing with the amateur stuff like that and then all the other shows in OAM at all coming over here would show Cage legacy doing great and I don't sell and clan wars and chaos all these already shows the stand to come back and did you know that humor is Forrest and that the team phenomenal and and there's a clear path and for everybody to you know to get to that money and to make a living Otis you know the man and that's the goal and whether it's go to the UFC or whether it's notable at or you know whatever your goal is a fort just full-on Cage Warriors I mean where we go would go was the phone in case whereas years ago I remember watching Cage Warriors on school II forget what channel was probably didn't network or somewhere like that and I was like all of the free on that show and I did and then obviously it was from a noob Antony what see but like and I wherever your goal is you know you had this an opportunity there and there for everybody and there's a phenomenal talent hill at the forest coming out and you know for me personally of Junior World Championships cadet world champions I have amateur world champions you know I have you know or helps probably the best best for in the world you know man okay so it's it's grown its feeling great and oh yeah you know just just keep building you know yeah do you believe people falling down better toward that they have no opportunity for in USA because I know we've we've we've had other photos that are like for the caterers and they believe that they can only go for caged worse you see you know like I mean like it some people wouldn't have the greater voice the cool pumps possibly get off you hear now you know well no I mean it doesn't matter if you're winning fights if you're winning for each everyone will have it simple as that way they're not where they were they afraid to do that they're not afraid but we read where you'd say yeah well people think I think that I think that the thing is if if you go and your for you on bail at all and you're losers you won't get Sony to do you ever say come in to go to cage warriors and you're not gonna get so into the UFC if you go any organization if you win listen if you win and you win successfully like like you know you finish people always say this what I said to me for its go in Finnish people and I'm just keep you on there and everyone will have you cuz you're yeah yeah hot stuff it's as simple as there and it doesn't matter which loop you want to take if some people financially need that money you know but there is you know it's harder to cross over from Bellator to the UFC it's that's obvious because the few them are you know that huge organizations and a huge movie this huge money pumped into them so yeah it's definitely hard to go from Bellator to the UFC oh you know I mean it is an easier real to go Cage Warriors because they are a feeder shelves for the USA but some people some people need money some people you know this is the lowly hood and I mean so they go they're gonna go peloton and you make a shitty you know and I'm making good wedge to make a good money and I live in comfortably well that's that's to go yeah I mean we have Reds around there naked he said he gets he was just treated as a he wasn't treated great in the OSI and in bounce or he's treated like as part of the part of the Bellator finally almost on there you know as I said some people have to make it like this they're livin so if at the end I think you should just come down to like well today we want to do a dinner for ammonia like you I mean whatever their real ambitions are they should just go away and underground a belt or on 20 grand you see I mean like no mean yeah exactly you know some people some people money is not it's not the aim the motivation so so but it's that's um you sit down and you discuss with your coach yeah you know and and Yoko let's say did to go hand the left were in a more gender go in the left I want to go cage workers I want to go UFC yeah all right brilliance that's that's what you want to do brilliant what do you want to do all you want to get on but I wanna make it quick you know make a few Bob and look for the like you can see this morning serious money if you're a boil I want to do that because it's quicker and I need the money I want it for you okay legacy and have a cool few proud for you some geeks in orders for isn't call it day I want to compete on the only Mouse and become an amateur world champion you it's up to you there's it's up to you whatever you want to do you do you sit down you'd this would this cooks for the coach and the coach will back him 100% simple as you just said a couple things there and like I was like and what you love coach I love it there's been it's been it's been all up and down for the past 17 and 18 years you know I was coaching I coached as I said John Calvin it toured around to meet in the shared in terms right I couldn't pay it Affairs better roads toured around he says I can't really pay the fee he's kind of forward exactly can he do and Tom was like yet now butter he can clean the Masters so I cleaned the mats and then after I was loading the mats but then I was a little train and all the glasses so Tintin I was in the his gym every day and I was getting good quick and then he was like I only getting pretty bored as the kids program on teach the kids program I said yeah it's the kids program and they're teaching the kids program I wouldn't want to use to travel all over the place I used to walk from 73 uh in in Finglas I was going for a cliff so welcome seventh it's free so I'd get the booster to walk I don't mean the booster talent I gonna buzz from towns to Harold crossed I teach a class and house cause up for eight o'clock I teach two classes there sorry jump on another my boss had a rough on him teach another class plan him get on the boss practice cross trying push from there to town from talented Timmy goth and I did that for here I saw a lecture okay the good postcards how better go both card Rafa which is a [ __ ] half of Adele the country and eventually going on the road it's got a fourth year and a Ford Fiesta and I had a had a for ages but it was afraid the joy will cruise chew or China because the hell so used to I used to go on these personality well then I used to go trade over the house cross I'd spent now and the house across there Rock Hill sorry I spending the day on record broke their 11 2011 teach teach the kids classes four to six and training even come home so believed it did for in a coach and a limit because otherwise it probably should have joined in the for yourself yeah and how many good things I've come a bit like I mean I mean that's that's the key as you said you couldn't pay your fees and they were there you can know that way well there before it before after shot the show like I ought to thank you for coming on like a great shot well like people will go mad at the end of you don't ask you what do what do we see when we when when do you think you might get back involved with the obviously Connor Connor is next for you cause like I'll see he's come back you want to make this unfortunately you know we had big glands and this is at the point a little bit of a spanner in the works for and you know it's hard and I would her to know when it when when there's not schedule also and things just trying to pretty much happen overnight when I come here the converse for it is like I just target is to target yeah cuz I was talking 80 now and now he's fighting yeah so to speak very quickly next week yeah yeah I'm excited to see that the see how do FC doable and I fingers crossed some of the restrictions are lifted them and Connor I now was we're ready to go on there Kono's in a great place for his last for you and you could see it you know phenomenal performance those great decision this marble and you know he's enjoying trainer which is which is the big king and what you know it's one thing enjoying trainable when you're in camp and it's it's torture that's when you see you stack on a losing the ride he was a hundred percent right off even true free week where you know I mean you can't even look at Connor because if he's country and obviously like everyone but I believe losing my mom in a calm way it was brilliant he was in great form you know it was I think I think it was the Tuesday the last training session he was getting a bit royal tour but that was just because he's like on [ __ ] Berlin to go on it I think he's he in one of his in nobody was there and release me you thought that was like I just want to go on now I've been trying on I longed for him I'm ready on I mean Gordon good Nick on for it open I just want to smash it and you could see that happens kind of for you because wearable you you know I don't know I don't know when he's gonna fight I mean I'd be excited and pretty excited to see him back in there again look like everybody else with and yeah I'm looking forward I think with the Ferguson kg for a premade novice Iike Biebs waiting in the wings for the winner laughs do you think that really open source the Diaz trilogy oh yeah you know kind of said that a long time ago that will happen I believe it's still gonna happen when we don't know boy that's it that's a cracker for eat man yeah but he used to say this years ago he saw many options and he doors because one because he's the position he's that they'll get himself said the position he stepped upon himself into everybody wants the for him is a beacon just pick and choose who you monster for you but you know I'm sure I'm sure he wants to fight Diaz again I know a week for definitely wants to get his hands on a babe again I'm sure he'd be happy to for gauge the or Ferguson or anyone idly one that makes sense you know Conor kind of will take for you just wrap it up just a quick rationale when you get the call to be like
