Fight Breakdown - Mayweather vs. McGregor

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Five, four, three, two, one.

SPEAKER_2 (0:09)

Fresh from fucking Dublin, Brendan Schaub returns.

Joe Rogan (0:15)

I want to live there. You were in the motherland for days.

Brendan Schaub (0:18)

I was, man, the motherland, now it's the motherland.

Joe Rogan (0:21)

Well, it's sort of one quarter of my heritage.

Brendan Schaub (0:24)

It's the capital of filing, that's for sure.

Joe Rogan (0:26)

Rogan is an Irish name, I don't know if you know that, lad.

Brendan Schaub (0:29)

Is it really?

Joe Rogan (0:30)

Yeah, I'm one quarter Irish.

Brendan Schaub (0:31)

Everyone out there, bring Rogan out. I'm like, what do you want me, talk to him, man.

SPEAKER_1 (0:37)

Rogan, you're Irish, aren't you?

Brendan Schaub (0:39)

Aren't you?

Joe Rogan (0:41)

Fucking animals, bro.

Brendan Schaub (0:42)

Favorite place I've ever been.

Joe Rogan (0:43)

Really?

Brendan Schaub (0:43)

Yeah, man.

Joe Rogan (0:44)

Those are savage, savages.

Brendan Schaub (0:46)

They're just, they're not even, it's not even that they're savages, they're super friendly.

Joe Rogan (0:49)

Yeah, they're very friendly.

Brendan Schaub (0:50)

Like so friendly. Not that people were, you know, in Australia or London or Manchester weren't, but in Dublin, they were like, I was like, damn, I don't want to leave, man. Like, I loved it.

Joe Rogan (0:59)

I was thinking yesterday when I was watching like Conor McGregor work out and like all the people were surrounding him while he was working out, you know, one of those open workouts. It's real weird.

You know, he's standing around hitting the bag and he's he seems to just be doing his work, doing his normal work, you know, hitting the bag. But there's just this circle of people like right there.

Brendan Schaub (1:17)

He's a lion.

Joe Rogan (1:18)

Well, it's not like that. He can't even move. No, he can't like dance around. He can't back up too much. He's just right in front of that bag. And he's got to pretend those people aren't there as he works his combinations.

Brendan Schaub (1:28)

Right. It's just a show to hype the fight more.

Joe Rogan (1:31)

I guess it is.

Brendan Schaub (1:32)

And then the boxing purists make fun of him.

Joe Rogan (1:34)

His movement. They won't make fun of him if he lands the way he did in that clip of Pauly.

Brendan Schaub (1:38)

That's what I'm saying.

Joe Rogan (1:39)

When he landed that straight left, blam! And snapped Pauly's head back. I'm like, hey Pauly, why didn't you talk about that?

Brendan Schaub (1:46)

He's been on a tear just going off.

Joe Rogan (1:49)

Really significant. But if a guy like Conor McGregor does that, that is straight and clean and sneaky.

Brendan Schaub (1:55)

16 ounces too, huh?

Joe Rogan (1:57)

And a little off-speed, like a little off-speed in the initial part of the movement, and then he drops it in, bang! That's like snake-like left hand.

Like, he's getting super comfortable if he can do that to Polly Mollinacci. Like whatever you say about those clips, all we know is that that's what we've seen. We've only seen these little short little clips. Like right here, watch this left hand. Watch how he sneaks this in.

Brendan Schaub (2:21)

Speed, son, timing. Are they ounces on too?

Joe Rogan (2:25)

That left hand is fucking legit. Because it's super legit. Here it is again. Watch this.

Boom! Dude, that is down the pipe.

Brendan Schaub (2:37)

That's the 12th round, but still Paul, the two time world champion.

Joe Rogan (2:41)

I don't know what round that was. I don't care.

Brendan Schaub (2:43)

Me neither. I don't care either.

Joe Rogan (2:44)

If Conor can do that with that kind of speed to Paulie Mollinagy and time that like that, that's lit.

Look, you can't sleep on him. He's got magic.

Brendan Schaub (2:53)

That's what I'm saying, Joe.

Joe Rogan (2:55)

It doesn't always work.

Brendan Schaub (2:56)

It kind of does.

Joe Rogan (2:59)

A little magic too, you know?

Brendan Schaub (3:00)

Different type of magic.

Joe Rogan (3:02)

Yeah. But that, you know, in that fight, Nate Diaz had the magic and it was just not Conor's night.

Brendan Schaub (3:07)

But the rematch was Conor's night.

Joe Rogan (3:09)

Nah, not really. No, I don't think it was. I think the rematch was both of their night. I think if you really want to look at that fight, honestly, the second fight, I don't think you see a winner. The only thing that I think you could say makes Conor a winner is that he dropped Nate.

Brendan Schaub (3:23)

Multiple times.

Joe Rogan (3:24)
