1:18:44 probably just do what they say. to the wall. But like, but then it's like, it's not that, but no, the problem, the problem was like, I mean, maybe. But yeah, I was going to be my first confirmed kill, you guys. killing anybody. Why? And think about people So I was Hey what else I'm sleeping on a gym. Have you ever slept on a mat? the night i go to a party and then that little voice in my head a little voice in my head that

1:21:50 Wow. That's fair. She was fucking awesome. Yeah. hungry and you go fucking kill your neighbor and feed them to your family i'm assuming you would I think you have to take into consideration Just the sheer amount of trauma that you've experienced, and you hold that up as a shield Right, but you don't have, you have dude. She said, would you wave your fucking wand? She's i'd put you in jail well she's a girl

1:25:29 This could happen. I mean, clearly, dude, if you were there, the guy's fucking following them. Like, we were about to fucking kill this guy. I'm like, you motherfucker, dude. had a very small number of them that you only met once you started fighting so i gave my girl that What if she has like, I don't know, Yeah, you'd do it. Yeah. so does that make you a decent human being well there's sometimes people make compromises and

1:28:14 Fuck, dude. They found a ton of bodies But just, like, wandering through the fucking and the moment yeah yeah and the moment you realize there's no waterfall with fucking pussy But I do know that if someone did fuck with you, you would spike them on the head. That's the move. So there was a guy named Albert Derov. durov is a great wrestler so i'm like all right sure i'll be your wrestling dummy for all these

1:31:05 I'm like, what are you fucking talking about? I'm going to lay off Islam. I mean, it's one of the most popular religions in the world. I mean the fact that guys You know as he created the earth Well, you said you don't want women working because you recognize the importance of a mother's role. what'd your stepdad do he was an architect oh fuck okay that's funny so you you and you were

1:33:33 You think about doing stand-up? Like, that's how I got into comedy. It's easy to crack the ice. I mean, he's also in a cult, by the way. Khalil Rowntree's in a cult, too. What do you mean? They're in a cult? Yeah, they're like in a weird fucking cult. I mean, you can treat him like Dominic Cruz. Alliance? Yeah, Alliance. I mean, he's also in a cult, by the way.

1:34:11 What? I enjoy talking to him and somebody invited round trim like god damn it why'd you invite this guy he's just a fucking the mat. And he was like, Sean, Cruz did fuck a chick I was into when I was like 16. And it was like, you know like that one when you- It was awesome, right? Back to my story. I'm so, well, Fucking dweeb right fuck him. I love that dude, too

1:37:17 And I was like, oh, I don't want to. unless you're a dirty feminist. so alina dude she's like fucking 5 10 big dude she's big dude like she's like like she's big You cannot even joke about that. Well, yeah, you- Is he like a self-proclaimed feminist? I was hitting on a chick once right and a couple years pass and I tell him this and he goes to the PI, and he files a complaint in the performance institute that I brought this up, and I made him feel, like, uncomfortable or sad.

1:40:08 It wasn't bad. It's like your sense of humor with a sensitive person could create real problems. He like looked over, shut up, mom. No, I think it was like a big fight. I get it. That's one thing that I'm happy the UFC would never person. I'm pretty open-minded, but gotta like somebody sent me like a video of a guy in a dress with a hard-on Yeah, dude, no.

1:42:23 Yeah. There's no more battles, man. say they're non-binary to me is like, listen, you don't have to embrace masculinity and you don't And if they don't say that, you can yell at them This is a true story, man. and he wore a dress and my girlfriend and like fuck them up he has a family And so they're heterosexual. Every now and then you'll meet kids, right?

1:45:00 I'm pro. If I have a kid and I think he's gay, I'm going to do everything I can to make this kid not fucking gay. dick all the dick dude yeah you know get a, get a boyfriend. Hopefully I like him. It'll be an interesting Thanksgiving. I remember my day when fucking black people couldn't go to school. I think there's an out. that at the end of every empire they become become obsessed with gender. And that is one very weird thing that I never saw coming.

1:47:46 What about all these other actual biological women that are running around that have been a woman their whole life? And it's, again, it is a way where people become special without doing any work at all. Are they kids? Like, I mean, I'm 32, you guys. So like, it was fucking weird. I mean, I remember. I kid, there were still hate crimes against gays. I'm 32, you guys, so it was

1:48:59 he wouldn't let me cut in the lunch line. I mean, my buddy out and then we for what's really going to be a fucking long string of lawsuits which is 100 It's social media. And you immediately get love because of it. Bro, I would love if that shit happened to me. I'm like pseudo famous. solution. I don't think affirmative action is a solution. I think the solution is what we talked

1:52:10 be a gigantic project and i said he was like the one and i made fun of him for not being black what the fuck's his name You have to understand, like, just that alone. I used to train at a black gym at Millennia with Lorenz Larkin. Hardcore. And that's how kind of millennia reminds me. black segregation. And then I was like, I got the bull in his arm.

1:54:44 I'm going to fuck you up regardless. And I was like and that's like kind of when it hit me You're this white person that I don't fucking like. because I respect those people. Because it's a shit means of production. this i'm like those punches aren't land dude i have a chin of a girl you guys seen alex knock me out you and said, all right, motherfucker, let's bang.

1:57:51 he threw a couple combinations all miss and the court and his course coach is like yeah man those but i mean those aren't landed punches right so yeah no i really wish they would change that but It's the shadiest business. There's a lot of setups. It's definitely easier. Lomachenko, Devin Haney, what we spar on Friday. because you have less injuries when you're not getting wrestled and you're not That's why I fucking... It's definitely easier and also the less guys pull out of fights for sure because you have less injuries.

2:00:31 Well, also, I think Jon Jones hates me though. Like, let's just say, like, this was tainted. Imagine ruining a guy's career if you're wrong. But I don't know what that means. You got a long, long highlight reel I'm going to be like Jon Jones. Like I'm the piece of shit, dude, but like, I've never, like, I mean, Like I'm always like like So, you know, he tries.

2:04:18 I've tried to understand that many, many times. just needs to bend the fucking knee. wasn't fucking horrible yeah no putin's a piece of shit yeah but all that is the whole thing is Just rubble. they are 100% going gonna wake up every day with you're just, you're making your kids like i mean if if you were on if you were on your tweet tweeter right now talking about like

2:07:10 You know, like with how much money we gave to Ukraine, I talked about this in a press conference. It's probably not something that we can fix. fucking good there's not many people who spar him that hit him right same with me it's like again i You have people live in this world fantasy. that you will fucking quit. All the time he's like a fucking evolved around

2:09:52 It's like what is bringing you success? Like, you take someone like John Jones, that motherfucker was inventing moves. Yeah. it's nice going to a fight no i sparred alex i fucking sparred artem levin i did i sparred me What is that like? shit i thought we're up is it funny so i walked into the gym once it was like my birthday the way of a woman he's like you can make a woman you know climax with a woman, he's like, you can make a woman, you know,
