I am. We're up. It's buffering. That's it, we're live. We're live. Put your fucking cans on my brother. Put the cans on. We're all professionals. We're all professionals. Is everybody drinking? Yes, we have Buffalo Trace here. We have whatever you want. We have vodka. We have all kinds of shit. What do you like? What do you like? Vodka club? With a splash of crayon? Nah, it's not fucking. It's not us. You don't gotta worry about that.
You can't hear it? You don't hear it now? You don't hear anything? Jamie will check it out. It might be a wire's loose. I thought he was running for the drinks, too. Does he play bartender, too, Jamie? He'll bring over us bottles. We got some stuff you can mix it with, I think, but I don't know. Do you need mixes? Nah, I don't need a mix or nothing. I was just gonna do a vodka with a club. I don't need no cranberry. We have club soda? Yeah, I don't know if we have club soda. Am I being a fancy pants? A little bit.
What are you guys drinking? A little hair with a dog? I'm the only one that doesn't drink. Whiskey with a ice ball. You're not drinking at all? I mean, I'll drink a little. I'm not a big drinker, but one in Austin. Give me some of that. Give me some of that. Oh, shit. Come on. That's what I'm saying. Give me a little bit. Let's go. All right. Brendan Chubb, stay on that wagon, sir. Have to. Stay on it. Guys. Otherwise, I turn into a gremlin.
And by the way, I smell and new with Tatiana Suarez, if you ask me. Oh, yeah. All day. I saw her just, I was just watching some of the fights, and I saw her just take down Jessica Andrade and smoke her.
Jesus. She's like nobody's business. And she's not easy to get down. She's a fucking. She was Gatorade High School Wrestler of the Year when she came out.
And then she won the Ultimate Fighter. She was a savage, and she got hurt. Wasn't she a national?
She had a couple of injuries that derailed her career for a little bit. She was on the Olympic team, but then got cancer. She defeated cancer.
Was it cancer? What kind of cancer? She beat cancer. Jesus. She's a savage, though. So good at wrestling. We labeled her the Khabib of the women's division.
Oh, here we go. We got something to mix it up with. Oh, LaCroix. Here we go. There you go. Oh! All right. I didn't have a sip of this. That's okay. I'm easy. Thank you, man. I appreciate it.
Yeah, that's a good fight. Shawn Weigh-Lee is such a monster, man. She's so hard to bet against. That lady is such an animal.
When's the last time she fought a real wrestler? She has not. She's never fought anybody like her. Not even close.
Neither of them have fought anybody of the caliber that they are. That's why it's a great fight.
They're also both older. I think Tatiana's 31, and then a homegirl, Weigh-Ling, is what, 34?
Isn't that crazy to say? Because Alex Pereira's 37. Different.
Yeah, isn't it? That's weird, though, right? You're like older, 31, you start going, hmm. Isn't that interesting?
Lighter weight classes, too. Lighter weight class. Lighter weight class female, like older, they turn into fucking gremlins.
How about fucking Pantoja? Pantoja's a fucking stunt. He might be the best guy pound for pound alive.
He might be right up there with Tapuria and Islam and Jon Jones and everybody else who's in the conversation.
But he's small, so no one cares. Yeah, but goddamn, man. He was so good against that Japanese cat.
I was like, my God. And that Japanese cat didn't have that first-time jitters.
