Speaker 2:Something's going on, something's in the mix.
Speaker 1:No, but honestly, he deserved to lose that.
Speaker 2:Before we get into it, let's just talk about our night, where we were, what we did, because you know we're always.
Speaker 1:We're always fucking wilding out.
Speaker 2:I've had a rough couple weeks.
Speaker 1:Where did this idea come from to go to a bar in the middle of New York City? I'm a homebody, bro Low key. I don't like going nowhere, but.
Speaker 2:In the middle of New York City.
Speaker 1:I'm a homebody, bro, low-key, I don't like going nowhere, but I am just like you, no, no, you actually like to go out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1:But when we both go out we are like it's a vibe. Yeah, we are the time, we are the show, we be wilding and we just being ourselves at that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, nothing fancy. We did do something a we be wilding and we just being ourselves at that. Yeah, nothing fancy, nothing. We did do something a little different podcast-wise. We did some street interviews and stuff like that. Shout out to Diamante Sports Bar though yeah, diamante.
Speaker 2:The drinks are banging Owner manager Sarafina. That was awesome. She's also like a promoter too, I believe. But whatever, that was a good night, good vibe, good atmosphere, all boxing fans, all boxing fans. And, as a man that dabbles in almost all types of sports bars, from high class, low class to bottom of the barrel, they did something so right sports bar-wise that I loved. So they had a DJ on right and the DJ was kicking.
Speaker 1:I got to get his name and shout him out. He was vibing. There was two of them. There was two of them. They his name and shout him out. He was vibing, there was two of them. There was two of them.
Speaker 2:They was both vibing. Yeah, yeah, there was, there was.
Speaker 1:They was doing their thing.
Speaker 2:Nah. But so, as a sports bar, though, there's one pet peeve I have, that I hate, I hate, no matter what the sport is soccer, football, anything but particularly now we're going there for a boxing fight, right yeah. So they had Everybody in the mood for the prelims and stuff, right, boom, cut the DJ for the main event. Now we hear the announcers, we hear the crowd, and they had the sounds of the fight playing, which I loved, and that was great. I was scared, I was a little scared yeah, you were talking shit.
Speaker 1:I was scared, I was scared Y'all. They're going to put the sound on.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and they did up for that man.
Speaker 1:That was great, I don't know. You probably harassed him because he was going no, no no, Puma was going back and forth. I'm like he's not going. I was drinking. He's watching this. Yeah, he was. First of all, he could not stop drinking. We already had a whole bottle of Don on the L-I-R-R. Like why did you buy a whole bottle of Don and then we had to give it away?
Speaker 2:We didn't. We gave like we drank half. It was one of those little bottles. We drank half of it. But yeah, I don't know, man, I don't know.
Speaker 1:And you was going back and forth like yeah, I'm about to wash the fire, so lately I learned this we saw people's passwords.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that was funny. Oh shit, we saw somebody's Amazon shopping list, amazon shopping list, because they. I saw a dildo on there, I think Did you.
Speaker 1:Nah, You're lying ass Shorty was.
Speaker 2:It was a great time. It was a great time. I did drink a lot of tequila, so did you, so did you. But I learned, I developed. It was your fault, man, I know I had woke up with a headache, and when I get hungover now, it's just.
Speaker 1:I'm done for the day.
Speaker 2:Gotta eat Chinese food and just lay out it's like Chinese food, bad eats, but that's what I wanted Usually. If the fight's in New York, we're going right.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:These Brooklyn Barclays tickets for all the records they broke and everything. No, yeah.
Speaker 1:Way too steep.
Speaker 2:I'm glad we didn't go too, because I would have been Me too, because I saw some of our fellow podcast friends, like fellow content creators, where they were sitting and it wasn't where we usually see them sit and I'm glad we didn't do that but good for them getting out there and we got enough content just going to the bar. But that's what I wanted. I wanted that exact environment that we had. I wanted it. It was all boxing fans. If it wasn't boxing fans, they were there to see the fight my pretty much.
Speaker 2:What was your?
Speaker 1:vision. What the shit were we talking about? Going to the streets and shit.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, we're going to get better at that too. Let's talk about we could talk about that. No, we'll talk about that at the end. So, yeah, we did some street interviews and we'll touch on those. Just look at the Instagram. We did some clips posted it. We're going to do more of that, but for future reference. So let's do it like a little sober. I'm looking at those videos. I'm looking at those videos and I'm like yo. I want the record to show that I do not do cocaine. I never tried cocaine, but now I know why everyone asks me are you on coke? Because I'm looking at these videos of me and I'm like holy shit, I am wild, I'm making facial expressions.
Speaker 1:We need to be sober.
Speaker 2:You need to be sober, but when I get wild, I'm making facial expressions.
Speaker 1:We need to be sober, you need to be sober, but when I get drunk, I don't know if you're going to be the same vibe. Nah, yeah, you are the same vibe.
Speaker 2:So my new magic trick, I learned, is like order two drinks at once so you don't have to go back. But that little leeway, right? That little leeway of going back delays how fast you're drinking, and I got to do that, that got to do that, that's what I got to do. Just one drink. If you want a drink, you come with me. If not, I'm getting one, because I was I didn't want no more at a point. While we were there, while we were there, they ran out of Don Julio.
Speaker 1:At the spot At.
Speaker 2:Reposado. Yeah, they ran out of it. That's what we were drinking to, yeah, so someone ran to the liquor store and got more, and we, we drank that bottle too.
Speaker 1:Yo what I was killing it. Good on them though. Yo shout out to them though, man. Yeah, that was great.
Speaker 2:And again, when you do that with the music, when you have the music on for the prelims and then you play the sounds of the fight, the main event, and kill the music, that is like clutch, because I hate when bars don't do that and Diamante's did do that, and that is so clutch. Clutch because the music gets everyone in the vibe. You know people watching the prelims, whoever their favorite fighter is, someone they know dancing around, and then they cut that. The fight's on the main event, you see the entrances and boom. That is how you do it and they did that. So I love that and, believe me, I know my sports bars.
Speaker 1:I think I was born in one I think we was watching someone jihad beat up.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:We saw someone jihad beat up.
Speaker 2:I owe you 50 bucks too. Sander Martin was on the undercard. I thought Sander Martin was going to do his thing and run away. No, he decided to bang. I'm like this motherfucker decided to bang with a giant and that did not end well for him, and I bet Willie with it. I was like, yeah, he's going to run, he's going to run away from this dude all night and then score, score, score, like he did. Tia, nope.
Speaker 1:I mean he scared the shit out of me. I'm like yo. Look at Puma, Know what the fuck he's talking about yeah, because he did do good.
Speaker 2:He just had no pop, yeah he definitely did good.
Speaker 1:He definitely did good man.
Speaker 2:But Another thing I liked about Diamante's real quick. So Subriel Matias was fighting and I had him in a parlay that someone lost for me, but we'll get into that in a minute. Subriel Matias was fighting and I didn't expect it to be on, but the girl working the front door giving the wristbands and collecting the money.
Speaker 1:She was watching it.
Speaker 2:I see on her computer she had it on. She's a real boxing fan. She knew Valenzuela, she knew him or something, and she was like a real boxing fan from Germany. So yo, it was all boxing people there. That's what I love and, like I said, a lot of the girls that were there weren't boxing people, but they were there supporting boxing and that was good to see, man, and that's.
Speaker 1:You know what was like super surprised, I ain't gonna lie why, when you said all right. So when you say we was going to. I think I know where he's going we's going to the city, to a bar, all right, I wasn't expecting a whole bunch of black people I was yeah, I'm like whoa this is my type of spot, usually me and like jimmy corner you know what? I just found out, what when the um winter brothers, uh, the owners yeah his best friends with the jimmy corner dude oh jimmy I guess, yeah, he.
Speaker 2:Uh. He passed away from covid, but I got his picture right there okay, up there in the top right. But uh, yeah, yeah, he was like muhammad ali's cut man in muhammad ali's corner yes, um the winter.
Speaker 1:You know the company, but jimmy's corner they kept they.
Speaker 2:So they went to my you know the company but Jimmy's Corner they kept open, thankfully, because I thought they were going to close it into the same, which is good, but that's a different vibe. This was more of like a lounger, but yo it was it. This was the vibe I knew, I knew, I knew I People are people, I don't care, and everyone was cool as shit. And I was. I was the only white guy yeah.
Speaker 2:Like no bullshit. Like you know, usually there's like oh, I was the only white guy, I was the only black guy, but there's always a few sprinkled in there. No, no, no, no, I was the only sprinkle. There's no other sprinkles. How many millie? Yeah, the white boy came out. It was funny, though, everybody loved it, but a few didn't. How many milli?
Speaker 1:Three milli willy. Three milli willy, three milli willy, no.
Speaker 2:No, I deleted it. I deleted it.
Speaker 1:I deleted it oh you deleted it, I deleted it. I have it, but I deleted it.
Speaker 2:I was going to say transparent, but I was just so drunk asking dumb questions puma is good, we gonna get shadowbanned yeah, yeah this guy be saying some wild shit in the comments and people with other people pictures.
Speaker 1:What'd I say?
Speaker 2:oh yeah yeah sorry delete that too. Yeah, uh, yeah, the alcohol, yo disclaimer, disclaimer. I'm learning. I'm learning as I'm going, like I've always had like a private account right and like trolling. So this whole podcast shit is new to me, do not get drunk. And social media, like don't do it. And that goes for us too, like with our editing and stuff, like I want to get shit out there quick.
Speaker 2:So when I'm drunk, in my mind I'm like yeah, yeah yeah, this is a good idea, and then I look at it the next moment Nope, nope, don't get that out of there. Alright, on to the fight. The main event Wait wait, hold on. Rewind.
Speaker 1:I just gotta, you know, shout out to Caesar Salads and French Fries.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, yeah, we did. Damn, we are a vibe. That was the train ride in.

Speaker 2:Let's get into it Now. We'll break down the fight. You heard about our night. It was really supposed to be a low-key night, but once you get the band together, the band starts playing. One thing I want to say real quick about that night?
Speaker 1:What made my night?
Speaker 2:was. This dude comes up to me and I thought I was about to get beat up or something because he wasn. What made my night was. This dude comes up to me, right, yeah, and I thought I was about to get beat up or something, because you know he wasn't from where I'm from. So, great guy, great guy comes up to me and he's like, yo, yo, you, that beep with the hat, with the heart hat. He's like, yeah, yeah, that's you, you, that beep with the heart hat.

Speaker 2:Tank Davis is a rock star. I say this every time he fights man. That guy is a rock star.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you kept on saying that he is a rock star dude. He's on a different level of aura. He really is. He has aura.
Speaker 2:He hopped into that hip-hop culture. Bro, I'm looking at him, come out, everything he does and he knows his audience. He knows his audience, he knows his audience and somebody told you that, yeah, you know my audience. If you're listening, my audience is fine. All right, there's three of them. There's three people in the audience. Nah, but so he, he knows his audience for real, because even when he's warming up with the wife beater on and the yankee hat that was funny.
Speaker 1:That shit was cool. He broke records in brooklyn straight up.
Speaker 2:You would think. You would think if he didn't have that big tattoo on his back. I know why he got that Because I'd be like oh man, he's from New York, that's a New York guy right there. He's from New.
Speaker 1:York. We adopted him Literally.
Speaker 2:Even when he speaks, it's like is that a Baltimore?
Speaker 1:accent. He don't sound like.
Speaker 2:Baltimore, yeah, but he's got the East Coast, like it's just because of the way he looks, though. Like, because of the way he looks, you're like, damn, this guy's from New York. Right, this guy got to be from New York and Baltimore. Every East Coast city is a lot like. You know one another.
Speaker 1:Like.
Speaker 2:I heard some Baltimore accent.
Speaker 1:Like, just like it's this young streamer that was on with Kosta Natt, he had him on there. He was like saying to you I'm like yo, you don't hear that from Tank, though. You forget like you don't hear to you, like all that shit, when I was in Florida to see our guy Lorenzo Medina right. Yeah.
Speaker 2:We went out to dinner and Floridians, be wild so. I'm waiting, I'm waiting and some dude comes up to me Like we're waiting for an Uber or something. No, no, a valet for the car. Some dude comes up to us and he's like oh, where are you from Boston? You got to be from Boston. I'm like who the fuck are you talking to? He's like no, I'm not from Boston, buddy, you're from Boston.
Speaker 1:I was like where are you from?
Speaker 2:beers. But yeah, the fight, the fight itself. And then what does he do to cater to the crowd more? What are you wearing, willie? A Yankee, fitted and Dipset.
Speaker 1:Oh, he had a Dipset came out Comes out with Dipset right that was fire I don't care what, nobody say, nick Young on Instagram was wowing like you had old ass Dipset man, this fucking Dipset Cam'ron was so Cam'ron so old ass Dipset, I love. Cam'ron. I love Cam'ron. Amazing Cam'ron is funny as hell.
Speaker 1:He feel how he feel about Dipset or whatever the case is, but that shit had me going as Because if you don't know this Puma, but we grew up like we grew up as Dipset was everything to us in Long Island. For some reason, in Long Island, dipset was everything we was wearing pink t-shirts, baggy ass t-shirts, everything do-rags, pink do-rags all that shit.
Speaker 2:Five for $20 at Foot Locker back then.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and even my cousin. His nickname is 550 Flea.
Speaker 2:What's that Explain?
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I can't explain everything about it.
Speaker 2:I'm being serious, I'm not making a joke the nickname Flea came from Cameron. Okay.
Speaker 1:That's what Cameron nicknamed him from Okay. And he was like yo. He thought he was Cameron back in the day.
Speaker 2:That's awesome. Yeah so, but Dipset too. We're the same age basically, but same thing. All the schools. Remember the Nextel phones with the ringtones? Yeah, it was all. Dipset or 50 Cent Yo, pick your poison, Dipset or 50 Cent. We had the 50 Cent tank tops too, and that's how I knew my white ass, that's how I know what they've said and I know the songs. I can't tell you who's who or what's what, but I know the songs.
Speaker 1:So I pledged right my fraternity and shit. So we got gifted paddles and shit. Somebody drew Max B on my shit. Yeah, max B, because I got Max B, because I used to love Max B. Max B was that nigga right. So we had Max B but Lil Wayne's my favorite artist. But Sosa, he wanted Lil Wayne on his because Lil Wayne was his favorite artist, so he got Lil Wayne. I ended up getting Max.
Speaker 2:B on him.
Speaker 1:But Dipset was like our life.
Speaker 2:So he comes out to Dipset, right, the whole Diamantes goes crazy. The fight didn't even stage it Like yeah, and everybody was so in the aura. Like you said, yeah, they missed Lamont Roach's shoes. His boxing shoes were fucking amazing.
Speaker 1:Oh, I didn't get to see. I think they were.
Speaker 2:Jordan 4s or 5s, I forget which Jordans and they were boxing shoes and I'm like what the fuck?
Speaker 1:No, this is why I don't. This is fucked up. Now you even think about it. These guys are so cool with each other. Did they plan to wear camo together?
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that's true too.
Speaker 1:I was like nah, this is getting weird and awkward right now.
Speaker 2:They were playing.
Speaker 1:I was like nah this is getting weird and awkward right now. It was a little weird they were wearing both camo.
Speaker 2:I'm like how do you?
Speaker 1:even tell we know who too If it was two Ukrainians fighting each other, you wouldn't even tell.
Speaker 2:But listen, I said let's get into the fight now. We talked about the antics, the rock star stuff. What really matters is the fight. That's what really matters. It really matters, and let's get into that. Willie and me got in a little argument. Willie was and I get it Listen he's been to my house for a TO fight. To's my favorite fighter for his antics in the ring.
Speaker 2:And when I have a fight I get nervous, I get nervous, I get anxiety. It's your favorite teams in the World Series. Every boxing match is like a World Series because anything can happen and this fight kind of showed that. But I said a long time ago and a long long time ago that if Tank doesn't knock you out, he's beatable. You know what I mean? That's a big if, obviously. And now this just kind of put the icing on the cake and proved that. I know it was a draw and it's disputed or whatever, blah, blah, blah. But it was close enough that you could make an argument for either guy. And if he doesn't knock you out, this is now two times. This just sealed that theory that I have If you could weather the storm, you could beat Tank. And this kind of proved that.
Speaker 1:And Willie was very emotional, he's like nah, he let him do that, he let him fight. I'm like what are?
Speaker 2:you talking?
Speaker 1:about Now. This is the fucked up part. This is what I think. It was hard for Tank to get up for this fight. He didn't have no type of fight, like no type of argument, no anger, unless it was somebody else in the stands like talking to, like another family member, the mom. He was being nice, like he was being too nice and friendly. I did not like this type of.
Speaker 2:But I'm gonna blow your mind real quick. I'm gonna blow your mind real quick. I did not like this type of fight and I don't dislike Tank and I don't. I'm not taking anything away from Tank, right, but when you can't get up for a fight, this is where your team comes in. So where is his team at?
Speaker 1:Because let's rewind, let's talk about that, let's rewind. He switched his team up.
Speaker 2:Let's rewind.
Speaker 1:Oh, this is bad bro.
Speaker 2:Let's rewind, remember, versus Mario Barrios right.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:What did Floyd Mayweather do in that fight? When they were still cool? He went over to the corner. He's like yo yo, tank, tank, tank. I need the 10th, 11th and 12th. I need the 10th and 11th, 12th. The unofficial scorecards have you down. And what did Tank do? He lit his ass up and got the stoppage in the 11th. Lit his ass up and Tank got pissed. He's like what I'm down, what I can't Boom. Where was that from the corner? I didn, but you need that. Yeah, this is. You need that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you need. It was a whole switch up with the trainers and stuff. This was not a good look. No, it was not the same Tank, and you know what it is too. And then you know you're watching the press conference, the post conference, and then they saying like Tank didn't know what round it was, so what the?
Speaker 2:hell.
Speaker 1:What is going on? This is a championship fight.
Speaker 2:You are.
Speaker 1:Javante, take Davis, stay humble, he was bugging out, stay humble. He was bugging out this year, this fight. He was really bugging out. He was too nice. He was not thinking. It's like you're acting like you didn't know the rules. You're bugging out. Out here.
Speaker 2:So let's talk about the knee, and then I want to say something about that, because I think things would have been different and for a weirder sort of a weirder angle I think if Tank, if that ninth round, when Tank took a knee because something got in his eye and the ref didn't count it a knockdown, steve Wills was like man what the fuck?
Speaker 1:That was the ref fault. Yeah, that was really bad. Honestly, that's a red fold. He started counting.
Speaker 2:And then I read I just read now New York State Athletic Commission came out and said that there was no instant replay because there was an error. There was a technical error. Well, that's weird, because we got the instant replay right away. La Fitness. Right Out here on Long Island LA Fitness, there's pickup basketball. He's walking around with the camera. I've never seen this shit. And when you call foul he shows you the replay. So how are you telling me there was a technical error?
Speaker 1:Something's up, something's up LA Fitness getting out of power.
Speaker 2:Shout out to that dude bro, I swear to God, I saw it again today?
Speaker 1:No way. This dude just walks around. Is it on the internet too?
Speaker 2:No, no, I don't know. I see this is in person. This is today. He walks around, bro, they're playing, they're playing basketball Five on five, whatever.
Speaker 1:Are they paying this guy? I don't know bro.
Speaker 2:He's in his Whatever. He reeks of weed, he brings a speaker and he videotapes every game dude On his phone. I don't know how much memory.
Speaker 1:This he's got to be making content online.
Speaker 2:Bro, when there's a foul called, he shows you. I'm going to ask for a picture with this dude he shows him, so you could do that. But there's a technical error on the biggest fight with breaking records in Brooklyn. No, no, I don't buy it. There was something going on, the fix was in a little bit and this is the boxing problem.
Speaker 1:I called that from the beginning.
Speaker 2:You didn problem I called that from the beginning.
Speaker 1:You didn't. I called it from the beginning. I called the shit from the beginning. You know what fucked me up though? Fucking Vegas. I really, instead of using my box, believing what Tank and them were saying, tank was telling y'all this was going to be the toughest fight, everybody knew it was the same style, the style they know each other, can I say?
Speaker 2:something.
Speaker 1:I knew that he was putting him on and exactly what the fans got when I said what was going to happen happened.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I blame the corner for this, Because, listen, if they would have counted that as a knockdown, if they counted that as a knockdown, as they should have, I think we see a whole different tank from the 10th, 11th and 12th oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:We see a tank.
Speaker 2:I think we're going to see a whole different tank right now since he got the draw, yeah, but if they counted that a knockdown and Tank knows he's going to lose. They should have gave him a loss, though, because he was just very, very lackluster, like you said.
Speaker 1:I think he could've stopped him. I think he could've. Yeah, me too. The thing is, Lamont fought a great fight.
Speaker 2:He did and stayed to the game plan. Every shot that Tank threw that landed. Lamont was like he threw back. Yes, but Lamont, he was just enough, not a half step but like a fourth of a step out of the way, just to take enough power off that shot.
Speaker 1:Yeah he let him be first a lot. Lamont, let him be first. And he countered that's one thing. Tank never fought a counterpunch like Lamont, and that was a great style. Well, he did. I told people like yo, this is going to be a great fight. They know each other, blah, blah, blah. Vegas caught me when it's like the odds was crazy. The odds was crazy. You kept on pointing that shit out.
Speaker 2:But it's true, man, it's true, it's true.
Speaker 1:We got caught up in the hype with the odds instead of reading between the lines, and it really fucked us up. I fucked this up.
Speaker 2:I said that and it's going to put him on. I don't know, man, I kind of disagree, because if Tank, just like you said in the beginning, couldn't get up for this fight, and that's his team's fault, that's everybody in his circle's fault, because during the fight again, if they would have called that a knockdown and Tank knew I was going to lose, knew he was going to lose, it would have been a totally different take.
Speaker 1:I think Tank gets a matter there. Tank surprised me because he was up, he was up and he was chilling and this is what I don't get People that know boxing right. Technically, if you get a knockdown, that doesn't mean that it's going to be a 10-8 round.
Speaker 2:It doesn't mean that, no, no, true, true, true. It doesn't mean that.
Speaker 1:More times than not, it's going to be 10-8 round. A person can dominate that round and still win the round or tie the round, so y'all making a big deal. It really affected the fight, the definition, if you take a flash knockdown or something like that, it's not technically going to be a 10-8 round. No, as long as the fighter come back and dominate that round and Tank was really dominating that round as soon as he came back from wiping his. I don't understand how that little wipe did anything.
Speaker 2:We'll talk about that next.
Speaker 1:No, but if Come on, bro, if you was, we did mitts with people. Yeah, people, yeah, right, we did myths with people. You box, bro. Sweat is coming from everywhere. Yeah, yeah, so if your eyes burning, your eyes gonna fucking burn like the whole time. So that little wipe didn't do nothing. That was weird, bro. So why did you take a knee? Why did you take a knee tank? Why did you take a knee? Because your eye was gonna burn regardless. Because if you're hitting sweat from the gloves, sweat from your face, sweat from your braids, all that is going to burn the whole time. It's not going to stop.
Speaker 2:This kind of shows that, like Amanda Serrano remember she pulled out of the fight. She did the right thing.
Speaker 1:That's what I was going to bring up. I almost forgot about it.
Speaker 2:Yes, she canceled the whole fight, but that good on her. Now, looking back, tank, almost that should have been a knockdown and it might get switched. They're talking that they're going to go back and look at it and switch it because it was that bad. It was that bad Not only that, he got hit with a jab and then took a step back and went down. When you get hit with a body shot and take a step back and go down, it's a knockdown. And I think Steve Kim posted that and read my mind and I was like, yeah, dude, you didn't even wait or roll around the ring and then take a knee.
Speaker 1:I would have gave him, maybe, benefit of the doubt he should have just ran for the rest of the round or some shit. I didn't understand it. I thought it was stupid.
Speaker 2:And this is a diehard Tank fan, so I thought it was stupid and this is a diehard Tank fan.
Speaker 1:So when you say, when you were saying like, when you were saying that shit, I'm like yo, this is dumb. Yeah, this is so dumb. Like. When you say, like Tank is kind of like off the racks in his mind he's off the racks for this one. Like I don't know what he was thinking and like who he thought he was.
Speaker 2:So there was an interview. There was an interview with the other dude from Long Island that does the podcast with Chris Algieri. Oh no, no, no, it wasn't him. It wasn't him, it was some other like podcaster guy, I don't know. They interviewed Tank and Tank was like they're like, have you ever had a job? And Tank was like, no, I've ever had. You know the rules then, guy, you don't know anything else but boxing. And I actually felt for him. I'm like, oh wow, this dude's from the mud Like holy crap, bro, if my only job was something from the day I was eight until now.
Speaker 2:I know. I know Like when we interview pros and talk to pros, we're just fans, right. They know shit and throw shit at us that I never heard of and I've been watching boxing my whole life. You know what I mean, like you know, and those are lower level pros. You know what I mean. They're not on Tank's level.
Speaker 1:They know a lot. They know a lot, you know.
Speaker 2:So he was looking for excuses, and here's something else I want.
Speaker 1:The whole team was looking for excuses that was bad, though.
Speaker 2:That was a bad look, but it is okay.
Speaker 1:And you still fought great, so you didn't have to come up with them. Excuses like oh, you got to draw, yes, but the hair part, okay, I can understand it.
Speaker 2:He did admit I fucked up. Yeah, I understand it, because you can't put water.
Speaker 1:You can't like if somebody put ice on your head and shit like in the corner. You can't do that when you have those braids fresh like that. His fresh was crisp.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but then don't come in there with braids, Don't come in there with yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1:That's what Amanda said. Amanda said all natural, Like you got to put in a style that your braids is not going to be in your face or some shit.
Speaker 2:You're going to war. You're going to war, right you?
Speaker 1:can't be doing that. Come in there with a fro. Somebody said.
Speaker 2:You're going to war.
Speaker 1:I don't know who said that he said come in there with a fro.
Speaker 2:Get the good old edge up. Came out with.
Speaker 1:Dipset, get the good old edge up. He tripped out on that one, but I really don't think he lost that fight. But it was close as hell. So even the fact that it was- close as hell.
Speaker 2:he lost that fight, so say none of that controversy happened. He lost that fight. It was a bad look and it's okay. I want to tell.
Speaker 1:So if he didn't take the knee, what you thought If he didn't take the?
Speaker 2:knee, he probably would have got the decision, but I think a draw was still If he didn't take the knee.
Speaker 1:It's still a draw. You think it's still that close?
Speaker 2:Still a draw. Yeah, the knee kind of like flusters your brain. When you're watching it You're like, wow, he took a knee.
Speaker 1:I think there's going to be a big wake-up call Yo, but he did get.
Speaker 2:He got hit with some shit, bro, he got a chin?
Speaker 1:I never see a knee buckle.
Speaker 2:I never see a knee buckle from a tank like that he got a chin.
Speaker 1:He got a chin.
Speaker 2:So props to, we're not taking anything away from Roach, bro. No, roach, nah he came to win.
Speaker 1:He came to win. Roach showed up bro and he came to. He really put himself on. He's like, this is my chance.
Speaker 2:I'm going to show y'all and good on him dude, and now he's going to be making some money and he gained a lot of fans to me and me specifically, a lot of respect.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I seen that shit today, you posted.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because, bro, he was humble as shit in defeat, like humble as shit in defeat. But this is my problem with boxing we always have problems with boxing. Last week, right, turkey Al-Sheikh, we had all that controversy when he went around the ring to the actual scorecards and looked at the scorecards Not the scorecards that don't count he went to the unofficial scorecards, he went to the actual ring scorecards. He's like you're down, you're down, you got to do this, you're down, which is totally, totally wrong, and live TV did it. And we, five days later, seven days later, whatever it is, again there's a new controversy and we all forget about Turkey on the Sheet. It's crazy, dude, this boxing shit is crazy. I don't know how you forget about that one. Yeah, but still, that is new.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a new controversy, but that's boxing is it's really been like that.
Speaker 2:It's really been that. It's literally been like that for the last huge fight. It's never going to get credibility. It's always something Forever. It's never going to get.
Speaker 2:It's always something and it's going to continue to how the fuck New York State Athletic Commission says there was a technical error on the replay. And I'm going to say it again and I know my listeners already heard this, I'm going to say it again LA Fitness, fucking. A guy reeks of weed walking around videotaping the games and then when someone calls a foul on his phone he shows them and we got instant replay on the foul call. But on the biggest fight broke all the records in Brooklyn Massive, massive, one of America's most popular fighters.
Speaker 1:This is crazy $80 pay-per-view $80 pay-per-view Boxing is getting weird. $80 pay-per-view Shit is crazy bro, and this is the reason why UFC is kind of winning.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but they're also starting.
Speaker 1:There's too many belts.
Speaker 2:Same thing, though they're making the same errors, slowly but surely.
Speaker 1:I was listening to Keyshawn, keyshawn, even though Keyshawn, with these station bodies and these belts they be dragging and people don't even want to fight for them.
Speaker 2:Shit's no more.
Speaker 1:They don't want to hold the belts. Everything costs them money.
Speaker 2:These fighters is now at least Turkish Turkey. He's not Turkish. He's not Turkish.
Speaker 1:At least he's paying these fighters At least pay for their belts.
Speaker 2:They get paid, though, they get paid they get paid, at least paying for belts.
Speaker 1:You see Shakur is looking clean. Now he's like yeah, this is my biggest payday, he getting money. They all say that, though.
Speaker 2:They all say that Belts matter the four main belts and the ring magazine.
Speaker 1:The man that beats the man. The belts matter, but the fact that you're keeping these people paid. Who are they paying?
Speaker 2:I know, I know they don't got no insurance for the fighters or nothing Like come on now. That's true, and that's on them, that's on them Like come on, now the people.
Speaker 1:This is a prize fight and this is prize fighting at its best. Everybody want to get paid and you're going to have to. Somebody's going to have to give up some money for these fighters, man.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, the fighters are doing fine at that level, Tank's level they're doing fine.
Speaker 1:Who's on Tank's level? That's getting paid. Canelo, yeah, canelo.
Speaker 2:Canelo, nah, canelo getting paid Canelo's the most. Canelo's different. He's a different team. He's a different team.
Speaker 1:But I'm saying like who else is there that's getting paid?
Speaker 2:like that Anthony Joshua gets paid a lot of money.
Speaker 1:That's why everybody want to fight Tank bro. They want that money.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but also too, like I said, I mean Shakur still didn't do a pay-per-view yet Shakur beats Tank. Though, if Tank fights like that, if he fights like that, if Tank fights like that, shakur, yeah, if he's bullshitting.
Speaker 1:No, I don't think he's going to. He don't like Shakur, so I don't think he's going to come out like that. But Shakur is a different type of. But this is good.
Speaker 2:This is good, this draw.
Speaker 1:This is good for that.
Speaker 2:fight this is good for Tank. You don't need to lose.
Speaker 1:No, you don't need to lose, but this was a loss for Tink.
Speaker 2:No matter what, this was a loss.
Speaker 1:This is a lose-lose and this is a win-win for Roach.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So, regardless, roach won in this. You know who really lost? We did, because we all bet it with Vegas.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, and they sold us out.
Speaker 1:They sold. They had us hyped up but. But when I was looking back at the Roach and Herring, Herring, jamel Herring, from Long Island. Yeah, so I was watching back that fight.
Speaker 2:First ever sparring interview.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was watching back that fight that morning and I'm like damn Tank about to knock him out because he's going to run into something, because he was lunging in. He wasn't even lunging at all yeah. That's what I'm saying the game plan was fantastic by Roach and he stuck to it.
Speaker 2:I'm not taking anything away from Roach Roach. Just because of what he said post-fight, I fucking gained so much respect for him.
Speaker 1:He's a dog bro Well-spoken humble as shit, bro.
Speaker 2:I was like, yeah, I don't really care If you had to wipe his face, wipe his face, I still think I won. Blah, blah, blah Like focused, Focused, focused. But this is, this happens in boxing man, this happens when you get A little bit too Rockstar, like yeah, he's a.
Speaker 1:He's a rockstar bro.
Speaker 2:Yo. Can we talk about Something else? I noticed On him and and it was fucking me up and when they were looking at his hair and stuff before the oil spill, when they were looking at his hair before the New Orleans oil spill, when they were looking at his hair, right, he has that pain tattoo above his right eye. It's like in red, it says pain, and I was like yo, that's a sick tattoo, that's badass, rockstar rockstar. When he was fighting, though, right, I kept thinking he and I was like yo, that's a sick tattoo, that's badass, rockstar Rockstar. When he was fighting, though, right, yeah, I kept thinking he had a bruise or he was bleeding. It wasn't good optic-wise. Yeah, because I'm like yo, is he bleeding? What the fuck is he bleeding? And it was a tattoo. That's crazy. I'm like what the fuck? I?
Speaker 2:didn't really notice that Is, he banged up Like what the fuck.
Speaker 1:He wasn't. I seen him beat up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he wasn't beat up yeah he didn't get beat up.
Speaker 1:He didn't get. Frank Martin did more damage. He's boxing though dude. I don't know what's going on. I don't know.
Speaker 2:What.
Speaker 1:Like I don't see it. I don't see it.
Speaker 2:No, but I've never seen. But I hate losing that You're not supposed to do that?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I hate that, but we saw Tank get beat up Like his face.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he wasn't touched. He didn't touch at all. I don't understand that and that's nothing against. It doesn't matter. Win rounds.
Speaker 1:He didn't win and he definitely got hit with shit, though he got hit with. I never see him lose that many rounds early normally.
Speaker 2:Dude, he does not throw enough punches. I say it all the time you got to throw punches he knows that though he's setting up the whole time.
Speaker 1:He's set up the whole time and then, when he was trying to be first and fight, that was the best part of the fight. It was both the inside fighting and then Roach took it, though Roach did his thing.
Speaker 2:Roach took everything.
Speaker 1:Roach did his thing, it's the style, because the Philly shell and the shoulder it was like a shoulder roll and counter punching.
Speaker 2:Like that was Tank. Did you see two when Tank, Tank footing?
Speaker 1:was off Roach was holding him.
Speaker 2:Roach was holding his one arm and Tank hit him with the shoulder in his face. And then Roach took a half way out and hit Tank, and that's all tactics.
Speaker 1:He came ready, Yo Roach came to fight.
Speaker 2:But I will say, I will say apparently there's a rematch, they're going back and forth. Now, yeah, that's what. I don't get Tank's pissed.
Speaker 1:I don't get that.
Speaker 2:There was a rematch clause. Yeah, it was a rematch clause. If Tank clause, Only Tank had the rematch clause apparently.
Speaker 1:Okay, no problem, there he's the A-side.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he is.
Speaker 1:All right. So whatchamacallit Roach had the first post-conference right, had the first one, and he was already talking about fighting Shakur, like if I can't get the rematch.
Speaker 2:I'm going to fight.
Speaker 1:I'll fight Shakur, we cool.
Speaker 2:We set that up. So I did see, though, after going forward, what's next for Tank, right, yeah, I did see after Tank was saying that he somebody he's like. Yeah, yeah, you know I might get, and I like Tank. Tank was kind of humble, you know, he was not in the ring.
Speaker 1:He was mad cool about it In the ring in the ring. I didn't like what he was doing but oh shit, he was cool about it too. Nah, in the ring Yo, I got to give a quick.
Speaker 2:This actually made me so happy, and it wasn't that Tank lost, or this is nothing against Tank, no, no, listen, listen, hear me out, hear me out.
Speaker 1:Nah, this guy was waiting for this moment.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, I forgot to bring it up earlier, but this made me so happy, bro. Like think about this for a second. I hate, I hate, like some boxing fans, I fucking hate them. As a diehard boxing fan, like yourself and like millions of others around the world. I don't know if it's just because it's a New York thing. New York switched up on Tank right.
Speaker 1:New York switched up on him.
Speaker 2:New York be switching up period, but they kept it real in this one Tank. 90% of the people in that building were there for Tank. He had New York. I'd say 95% of the people were there for Tank. He's there cheering and they booed him because they knew they kept it real. Bro, and that to me, you never know when you're a rock star like that. That to me was crazy. Tank's getting booed. He's like why are you booing me? And that probably lit a fire under his ass and New York may have saved Tank. We're going to get old Tank back. You know what I mean Like getting booed like that. He's never fucking felt that, never got booed, got booed bad. And they kept it real. And even in our street interviews they all kept it real.
Speaker 1:Everyone kept it real. And I was like wow, this over.
Speaker 2:It's great to see man, but when he got booed I'm like holy shit. Fans are being real. Fans are being real.
Speaker 1:But you know what he said yo, they gonna love you and hate you.
Speaker 2:next time Love you one minute, hate you next. But this was rightfully so though.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was his fault.
Speaker 2:He said it was his fault, so I'm talking strictly in the ring, strictly in the ring, and it's nothing against Tank, it's just to see the fans do that. I was like wow, that is good to see, like holy shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he got to do better. I hope this light a fire and don't retire off of this, please.
Speaker 2:No he's not. He said he's like oh, he's like. Yeah, I said three fights I might need for.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he might have to. He's hungry. He has to fight Shakur, but they were Lamont and him. He has to fight Shakur and beat him. I don't even care about the Lamont fight.
Speaker 2:I heard Loma, though man.
Speaker 1:I hope it's Loma. Yes, and I hope it's. Loma's slippery bro, Loma's slippery yeah, but I don't understand.
Speaker 2:Tank showed me something in this fight versus Roach, though that helps him and makes me lean more towards him versus Loma, when he went to the body like that Going to the body like that is going to fuck. Loma up and that's what Tio did when Tio beat Loma beat the shit out of Loma. Tio fucking was eating his body up and just being aggressive, but Tank needs to throw more punches. You need to throw more punches.
Speaker 1:But they both like to start off slow. So that's going to be weird. Loma will throw more punches, but they both like to start off slow, so that's going to be weird.
Speaker 2:It's going to be a slow start. Who's going to win those rounds?
Speaker 1:You know, loma, loma with the jab.
Speaker 2:Probably. Loma's a counterpuncher too. The in and out movement, yeah, yeah, and I don't know, we don't know what version of Loma we're getting.
Speaker 1:He's old but back foot up off the ground. Not good. He wasn't even that tall, taller than you. I'm excited he was the bigger person, but you got to get back your footwork, was not it? This fight?
Speaker 2:I will say this though If they were to have a rematch Tank and Roach, I'm putting like three bands on Tank, KO, TKO. Swear to God, I don't even have that.
Speaker 1:I feel like he's going to come out crazy.
Speaker 2:I'm putting like and it's nothing against, it's nothing against Roach, but I'm just. He knows what to do. Now he's going to be more focused. This was good for fans. Still think he should have got the L. I don't like that. I think he should have got that. That was a knockdown. That was a knockdown.
Speaker 1:If they would have counted that shit, it would definitely have been an L, but I still don't think Roach did enough to beat the champ With the knockdown, though.
Speaker 2:Come on.
Speaker 1:That should have been a knockdown.
Speaker 2:That should have been a knockdown, but to make it a 10-9, you gotta really you gotta really dominate.
Speaker 1:Tyson Fury versus Wilder, you can really dominate.
Speaker 2:Wilder won. Tyson Fury versus Wilder won. I think it was the 12th when he got knocked down or one of the rounds I forget which one. It was so long ago now and just had that flash knockdown. It was wilder, it could crack. Yeah, that I think should have been like a 10-9 round. A 10-9 round. After the knockdown, but it was like he was crushing him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you do have to dominate dominate, but he didn't lose that round necessarily.
Speaker 2:Yeah, if it was a knockdown.
Speaker 1:If it was a knockdown. But he lost, they gave him that round without the knockdown.
Speaker 2:So that's what I'm saying. You're saying it would have been a 10-9 round for Roach. Two of the judges had it a draw.
Speaker 1:It would have been a 10-9 round for Roach.
Speaker 2:Two of the judges had that round. Oh, I'm sorry, had that round for Tank. That's what I'm saying yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm trying to. I told people I'm like yo that round.
Speaker 2:Yeah, without the knockdown. Yeah, yeah, I can agree with that. I can agree with that.
Speaker 1:I'm saying if it was a knockdown, that means that you know what I'm saying, I see what you're saying yeah, so you're saying without the knockdown that's a tank round. That's a tank round. Yeah, I can agree with that. I can agree with that. Like it was a Like. If you look it up, it's a flash knockdown they going yeah. You know what I'm saying? It's not a.
Speaker 2:Technically, though, he should have been disqualified. You can't go to your corner, for you can't go to yourpiece. Yeah, Play the game, run away, wrap up. The mouthpiece part was IQ. Yeah, but he didn't. You can't go to your If I'm fighting, right.
Speaker 1:My nose.
Speaker 2:If I'm fighting right In the middle of a fight. Hold on, sir, hold on, let me run to my corner. My nose is bleeding. I can't. In the middle of a fight. Hey, hold on, sir, hold on, let me run to my corner. My nose is bleeding.
Speaker 1:I cannot.
Speaker 2:You can't do that shit.
Speaker 1:Yo, you bugging out and.
Speaker 2:Steve Wills man.
Speaker 1:Where was your bug eyes?
Speaker 2:We're giving you the eyes, Steve, we're giving you the eyes. I can't do it. He yells at me. Every fight, too. He yells at me.
Speaker 1:And he's a good wrestler. Yeah, like what the fuck bro, that was bad dude.
Speaker 2:He's looking bad. He even said. He even said that could be a knockdown. That could count as a knee count. That could be a knockdown, no shit.
Speaker 1:He took a knee. We are boxing is just weird.
Speaker 2:It's the hardest sport to bet on, bro. The hardest sport to bet on Because, unlike any other sport, there's more controversy in boxing than anything.
Speaker 1:Vegas caught us with this one. They made the odds how the odds was.
Speaker 2:The odds were right.
Speaker 1:The odds was not right because Tank and them knew. No Tank was gonna, they knew man, the styles make fights, and that style was not. Tank knocks him out.
Speaker 2:Tank has pop, bro the shots he was hitting. Tank has fucking pop. The only thing is Tank has pop, bro the shots he was hitting. Tank has fucking pop. We need more of that. We need more pop in each round, not this load up shit, this load up, set up, set up, set up.
Speaker 1:That's why he carried his power late.
Speaker 2:I blame the corner.
Speaker 1:You couldn't really hear him because the media has shown replays that New York State Athletic Commission couldn't it was a video Like Tank really don't fuck with Calvin like that or something Like he was not even talking to him.
Speaker 2:Money is the root of all evil man.
Speaker 1:You get too rich and you forget about, but we don't know the story, we don't know, who did who dirty. We don't know who took somebody's money?
Speaker 2:No, we don't. Somebody probably pocketed somebody Nine times out of ten, though. Probably probably said some crazy shit, like you said in the beginning when we started this whole spiel, right?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:You said he didn't get up. He couldn't get up for this fight.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:That's because of money. He's sleeping in silk pajamas.
Speaker 1:Yeah well, yeah, he gave him money, but Now he's hungry. That's the crazy part. I've never seen him so friendly. He really went up to him after the fight.
Speaker 2:You keep saying that. But he didn't go there to lose Tank did not go there to lose or draw.
Speaker 1:He said in the ring he was like yo, you're not going to win this. Remember that scene. He said that Roach said that he knew.
Speaker 2:Roach was humble. He's like that's boxing, I know, I know. But Roach says I think I did enough to win.
Speaker 1:You can make that argument. I'm the superstar.
Speaker 2:You can make an argument.

Speaker 2:That was funny, nah, hey man could more people are going to want to fight tank now you know. So that's good. Yeah, that's good. I, I definitely want to see a big name. Though he needs a name still, this wasn't a good look. It wasn't a big name. He needs an. He needs a name. He has. No, the. The best name on his, his career, is jose pedraza, and which is great. And he knocked shit out. He knocked his ass out, right yeah, because he was hungry. He knocked his ass out, right yeah, because he was hungry.

I'll have one, I'll find you one. Nah, for real, it's a little dangerous to me. Times Square is a shithole as it is. If you're not from New York, you don't know that. You think it's just nice and pictures. Times Square is a fucking shithole. Nobody likes that dirty-ass Elmo. That shit's going to shithole Nobody likes that dirty ass.

Speaker 1:We took them out with the same nickname.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you got Haney. Who is Haney fighting? Oh, oh, fucking Mexican dude. Fuck, I don't know which is. Ramirez. Haney's fighting Ramirez oh yeah, which is great, because Ramirez could crack and still test that chin. I think Haney's going to win, but it is what it is. And then on the undercard, I heard through Rumorville we got a heavyweight fight. That's in the mix Jared Anderson versus Jarrell Miller, Big baby versus big baby. If that happens, that's crazy. Big Jarrell Miller just posted something tonight about it too. Won't do our show. For some reason, though you got to pay him. I didn't say it. See you in the screets. I'll see you in the screets. Man, I ain't got no money for you. Sometimes professional boxers ask us for money to do a podcast. What I say to them is walk around my local grocery store with me, and if you don't get recognized and I do I'm not paying you. Going forward.
Speaker 1:Damn, that was a shame.
Speaker 2:Going forward, going forward. Yeah, I don't like that. You know, I'll meet you at the top, meet you at the top Five years. I'll be here, you won't. Yeah, that's really it. We don't got much. Ending on a low note.
Speaker 1:Ending on a low note, that was a low vibration, a little low vibration Low vibration. Don't like it, don't like it, don't like it, what else?
Speaker 2:we got. Let's talk about our night. Uh, that's it really. We just same shit. Yeah, same shit. We're actually gonna. I'm trying. Oh, I got some groundbreaking news. A friend of mine owns a brewery uh yeah, in miniola, new york. So it's the first stop after queens on the long island railroad, so it's a short train ride from people from the city. And he reached out to me and, kind of like I was talking to Diamantes about, he wants to put something together with a big boxing fight in our podcast. So that's great news. I'm trying to do like a benefit or something and we'll raffle some shit off. It's in the works. I got to wait for the right fight. He just got the UFC and boxing going. He told me that. He said he wants to do something. That's cool. Those drinks are strong. It's a brewery. Bring your diapers, because we'll be pissing our pants that night.
Speaker 1:Let me know I'm about to invite the whole Amityville.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I got to tell them that boxing attracts a different crowd than you're used to, sir.
Speaker 1:It's going to be a whole area.
Speaker 2:At least folks don't do breweries. If I'm not inviting people, it's going to be crazy. But for real, I want to get some pros there, maybe Jarrell Miller. If he doesn't listen to this, I'll pay you for that. One buddy, okay, heron, alex, yeah, what else? What else? We got anything. You got anything. Nah, talk about your fit. You didn't. You didn't talk about your fit. You're in the salmon pink.

Speaker 1:Yeah, Simbran and Y. You already know that's the only brand I wear.
Speaker 2:Explain to me and our white listeners though. I know Cameron right, but is he in dip set? Like dip set's a rap group right. Yeah, okay, I don't know, dude, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I'm not versed in this shit. Yeah Well, cameron, I think I don't know the whole story. Cameron started it.
Speaker 2:And then, there's money. Money got involved, yeah, so.
Speaker 1:Cameron.
Speaker 2:Yeah, speaking of rap beefs.
Speaker 1:Speaking of rap beefs Santana, JR Ryder.
Speaker 2:I don't know if it's true and I don't want to get too off topic and we're going to close out with this because this is basically the tank show Tank tanking show.
Speaker 1:Tank tank.
Speaker 2:Somebody said that 50 Cent tells a story and he never tells it fully, but remember him in the games Beef.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And then apparently the game sent people to 50 Cent's studio.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know how true and don't quote me on this. This is all hearsay or whatever, but I heard it from 50 Cent's version of hearsay. Someone left with a bullet hole and it wasn't 50 Cent and that was kind of the most gangsta shit I heard, because 50 does talk a lot of shit.
Speaker 1:He talk a lot of shit.
Speaker 2:But he must be real because he got shot nine times, yeah, but besides that, so did my guy Survived nine shots, did you? Know, lil Tjay got shot too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I heard he got shot.
Speaker 2:That's my guy Lil Tjay.
Speaker 1:So Cam'ron got shot too.
Speaker 2:I'm not saying that means anything Like it's not cool to get shot. We're not saying it's cool to get shot.
Speaker 1:It was the crazy part about Dipset. This is why Cam got his podcast with Mase and he's like that's bad energy Because they don't even like each other, apparently.
Speaker 2:Joel.
Speaker 1:Santana and Jim Jones. The whole Dipset is a little broken up right now, so I don't know what the beef is with Cameron.
Speaker 2:That music did use to hit, though, and that was when mixtapes were a thing I remember so obviously. As a white guy, I used to get the mixtapes Like damn, this is Like I love Fabulous, f-a-b-o-l-o-e-s.
Speaker 1:I just love hearing the stories. Now you know that Cameron got his own podcast, so he talk with flea. That's his other shit Okay, he we are going down stories like roads and how, how Jim Jones and how he Jim Jones, not really from Harlem and he's like he's like right now they beef it, so he's talking about like crazy.
Speaker 2:but it's just like the background stories in boxing.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of similarities there, like how Joel Santana they used to kind of put him on punishment Like yo, you got to write this song and I'll come back. By the time we come back, da, da da. You can't go this way who?
