00:01:17.448 --> 00:01:17.969

Panthers and Rice Young is back.
00:01:25.914 --> 00:01:27.694

How about you, chris?
00:01:42.581 --> 00:01:44.265
I mean I'm very excited what the Panthers are doing.
00:01:44.265 --> 00:01:51.936
I love how our defense has played these past two weeks, basically winning us the game at the end in overtime.
00:01:51.936 --> 00:01:55.963
So I definitely love what we've been doing.
00:01:55.963 --> 00:01:56.745
Yeah, it's been a good week.
00:01:56.745 --> 00:01:57.748
It's been a really good week.
00:01:57.769 --> 00:02:01.769

00:03:26.263 --> 00:03:30.245
So shout out to everybody All right, well, let's get into this fight.
00:03:30.245 --> 00:03:33.086
Man Diego, oh yeah, tyson.
00:03:33.086 --> 00:03:36.348
Mike Tyson went at age 58.
00:03:36.348 --> 00:03:38.789
So let me set the stage for you a little bit here.
00:03:38.789 --> 00:03:41.711
Okay, so they've been training for months now.
00:03:41.711 --> 00:03:43.693
The fight was supposed to happen in July.
00:03:43.872 --> 00:03:46.074
Jake Paul had time to fight a fight in between.
00:03:46.235 --> 00:03:48.116
Yes, he did fight a fight in between.
00:03:48.116 --> 00:03:52.177
He did because Tyson had the ulcer, supposedly not age-related.
00:03:52.177 --> 00:03:56.948
All right, hey man, it's finally fight night.
00:03:56.948 --> 00:03:57.393
It's finally here.
00:03:57.393 --> 00:03:58.120
They're fighting on Netflix.
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.426
Tyson did look pretty ripped last night.
00:04:01.426 --> 00:04:03.467
He had a slap and all that that we'll get into.
00:04:03.467 --> 00:04:06.181
Tell us who you got.
00:04:06.181 --> 00:04:07.123
Why give us your take on this fight?
00:04:07.123 --> 00:04:08.669
I got jake paul.
00:04:09.030 --> 00:04:09.793
Uh, I just think.
00:04:09.793 --> 00:04:14.284
I just think it's his time, partially it's his time and I think he's ready to.
00:04:14.284 --> 00:04:26.766
Uh, he's not gonna prove all the doubters wrong even if he wins this fight, because even though people are saying paul's gonna win, they're still gonna say oh well, you knocked out or beat a 58-year-old man, it's not what you were saying before.
00:04:26.766 --> 00:04:30.771
But whatever, it's still going to mean something for him if he was to win.
00:04:30.771 --> 00:04:40.142
I think he wants it and I think he's got the endurance, he's gained a little bit of weight so that he can fight with Tyson.
00:04:40.142 --> 00:04:46.913
But I just think his agility is still pretty quick, can defend himself, has some power.
00:04:46.913 --> 00:04:49.641
I just think he's a good matchup.
00:04:49.641 --> 00:05:01.675
He can knock him out at any point in time, but I also think that he can tire Mike out and just kind of tire him out and then possibly knock him out at the end or just take it to a decision.
00:05:01.836 --> 00:05:05.127
Okay, one more thing before we go to Chris.
00:05:05.127 --> 00:05:09.290
So okay, you said take him to the end or decision knockout.
00:05:09.290 --> 00:05:10.733
Give me a prediction.
00:05:10.733 --> 00:05:12.685
So I know you have Jake Paul winning the fight.
00:05:12.685 --> 00:05:13.826
We know you have that.
00:05:13.826 --> 00:05:14.949
You've held steady.
00:05:14.949 --> 00:05:18.341
I've been back and forth, I've waffled, admittedly, so Okay.
00:05:18.341 --> 00:05:20.648
But you've said from day one Paul's going to win.
00:05:20.648 --> 00:05:26.281
You haven't wavered, going to win, you haven't wavered.
00:05:26.281 --> 00:05:27.223
So give me a prediction.
00:05:27.264 --> 00:05:27.786
Is he knocking him out?
00:05:27.786 --> 00:05:28.367
If so, what round?
00:05:28.367 --> 00:05:29.228
Or is it going to be a decision?
00:05:29.228 --> 00:05:29.408
How many?
00:05:29.408 --> 00:05:30.130
How many rounds is it eight, eight?
00:05:30.130 --> 00:05:33.346
I think he knocks him out in the seventh round.
00:05:33.906 --> 00:05:43.257
Okay yeah, because I think he's gonna be able to hold off early, because early is when mike tyson is going to be as dangerous at most dangerous.
00:05:43.257 --> 00:05:51.730
I think he's going to be able to play well then and tire him out, and then he's going to hit him with the shot in the seventh round and end it and win it.
00:05:51.730 --> 00:05:52.759
Okay, all right.
00:05:53.579 --> 00:05:54.545
Chris, you're up man.
00:05:54.545 --> 00:05:59.411
Well, I hope that Jake Paul doesn't take it, doesn't take the win.
00:05:59.411 --> 00:06:04.086
I'm sorry, I've been a doubter this whole time and he's kept surprising me.
00:06:04.086 --> 00:06:18.250
So you know I might be everybody's bad luck charm, I'm not going to lie, but I do think that it is 58-year-old, mike Tyson, so I really can't call this a fight and I'm leaning more towards Paul.
00:06:18.250 --> 00:06:23.319
But hopefully Mike just turns back the clock and locks that beast man.
00:06:23.540 --> 00:06:34.228
I just think that you know that you see everything on social media him talking about him, not necessarily wanting to leave a legacy, and he just wants to.
00:06:34.228 --> 00:06:38.903
Kind of, it seems like he just wants to get this over with at this point, not necessarily like he's.
00:06:38.903 --> 00:06:41.490
The competitive fire is still there.
00:06:41.490 --> 00:06:44.668
So that's what I think might be the difference in this fight.
00:06:44.668 --> 00:06:47.790
So it's really like nobody has anything.
00:06:47.790 --> 00:06:50.709
Well, I think Jake Paul has everything to gain with this fight.
00:06:50.709 --> 00:06:52.786
Mike Tyson really doesn't have anything to lose.
00:06:52.786 --> 00:06:57.759
Like his legacy cemented, our feelings about him aren't necessarily going to change Now.
00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.747
If he does get knocked down, everybody's going to be like okay.
00:06:59.766 --> 00:07:00.850
Mike, what are we doing?
00:07:05.259 --> 00:07:07.208
But I do think that this is going to be a very entertaining fight.
00:07:07.208 --> 00:07:09.958
I again hoping Paul doesn't win it, but I think that he might have this one.
00:07:09.978 --> 00:07:11.887
Okay, okay, yeah, and Paul might have this one.
00:07:11.887 --> 00:07:13.632
Yeah, it's a tough one, man.
00:07:13.632 --> 00:07:15.466
I've gone back and forth.
00:07:15.466 --> 00:07:17.367
When it first came out I was like Tyson.
00:07:17.367 --> 00:07:35.072
Then about a few weeks in, I was like wait a minute, man, tyson is 58 years old and it's hard for me to unsee Kind of similar to Ant-Man, right, it's hard for me to unsee Luka going in there and taking his lunch money at home.
00:07:35.072 --> 00:07:39.915
It's hard for me to unsee Tyson's last fight against McBride.
00:07:39.915 --> 00:07:58.329
Right, tyson I'm not counting Roy Jones Tyson was 39, okay, much more swole than he is now, and he's sitting there on the ropes and said I just don't have this in me, no more, right, I'm done, okay, and just look defeated and I don't know if mcbride is that much better than paul.
00:07:58.329 --> 00:08:03.084
So I mean I yeah and I was back in the day and
00:08:03.165 --> 00:08:06.312
I was back in the day, so that's weighing on me.
00:08:06.312 --> 00:08:09.689
But on the other end, right, I see Tyson.
00:08:09.689 --> 00:08:12.129
I feel like he has a lot more motivation right now.
00:08:12.129 --> 00:08:15.990
His kids hasn't really seen him, at least his younger kids now.
00:08:15.990 --> 00:08:17.264
They haven't seen him fight.
00:08:17.264 --> 00:08:23.079
So I know he wants to show out for them and that's a big motivating factor.
00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:24.185
I know that firsthand.
00:08:24.185 --> 00:08:25.504
My kids can motivate you.
00:08:25.504 --> 00:08:27.185
So you know he has that.
00:08:27.185 --> 00:08:33.347
So I've just gone back and forth and in the weigh-in man he looked good.
00:08:33.347 --> 00:08:33.950
He looked good.
00:08:33.950 --> 00:08:38.067
Now again he's got the knee brace on.
00:08:38.067 --> 00:08:39.272
You know what I'm saying.
00:08:39.272 --> 00:08:40.684
He's kind of got the limp.
00:08:40.684 --> 00:08:41.845
So I'm like, oh okay.
00:08:42.065 --> 00:08:46.830
I don't know about that, looks great but he's muscularly but I just don't know if he can.
00:08:46.830 --> 00:08:57.828
He I think he has like the power in him, his upper body, but like I just don't know about his mobility and that knee with the knee brace, that's looking, yeah interesting, so yeah so there's so many factors, man.
00:08:57.849 --> 00:09:01.177
So, with all that said, I'm a rep.
00:09:01.177 --> 00:09:07.327
I'm a rep for my era, I'm a rep in my age bracket All these older than me and I'm going to go ahead.
00:09:07.327 --> 00:09:09.951
And it's as far as money on the table, all right.
00:09:09.951 --> 00:09:13.096
Officially, I'm going to put my money on the table with Mike Tyson.
00:09:13.096 --> 00:09:16.346
So I, I started with Mike, I went to Jake Paul.
00:09:16.346 --> 00:09:24.332
Now this time to actually slip, slip the bet into the to the slot, I'm going with Mike Tyson.
00:09:24.332 --> 00:09:29.025
So I think we've got $100 going to Haven House Services in Raleigh, north Carolina.
00:09:29.025 --> 00:09:32.648
They have a boxing program for kids after school.
00:09:32.648 --> 00:09:34.865
So we're donating $100 to them.
00:09:34.865 --> 00:09:37.091
So if Tyson wins, it's in my name.
00:09:37.091 --> 00:09:39.580
If Paul wins, it's in your name, all right.
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:41.081
So that's how we're going to do that.
00:09:41.582 --> 00:09:46.149
Okay, All right, so man anything else on the Tyson-Paul fight?
00:09:47.631 --> 00:09:49.394
No, let's see Sign to watch it.
00:09:49.774 --> 00:09:51.022
Let's see let's do it.
00:09:51.082 --> 00:09:53.759
Cannot wait for that fight, all right.
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:55.125
Well, let's move on, man.
00:09:55.125 --> 00:09:59.659
Let's go to the NFL, man.
00:09:59.940 --> 00:10:01.201
Snuck in Jay and Daniels.
00:10:01.201 --> 00:10:06.447
Yes, I had to slide him in because so many people were so high on Jayden Daniels.
00:10:06.447 --> 00:10:09.370
So hey, you guys might have him in your top three.
00:10:09.490 --> 00:10:11.552
I can't wait, and we haven't discussed this.
00:10:11.552 --> 00:10:12.373
At least I haven't.
00:10:12.373 --> 00:10:15.255
I don't know what your top three is.
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:19.508
I don't know if any of us know who has top three.
00:10:19.508 --> 00:10:21.460
He may be having the CJ fall off a little early, oh man.
00:10:23.446 --> 00:10:24.909
So, hey, we're week 11 right now.
00:10:24.909 --> 00:10:26.306
There's 18 weeks in the NFL.
00:10:26.306 --> 00:10:27.686
We're over the halfway mark.
00:10:27.686 --> 00:10:30.168
Now it's officially time to start talking MVP.
00:10:30.168 --> 00:10:33.966
So with that said, Diego, I want you to start us off.
00:10:33.966 --> 00:10:36.408
Go three to one MVP.
00:10:36.408 --> 00:10:38.787
Okay, give us three, two, one.
00:10:38.787 --> 00:10:41.389
Tell us who you have in your race as of today.
00:10:41.389 --> 00:10:42.698
We know it's fluid and it can change in your race.
00:10:42.698 --> 00:10:43.715
As of today, we know it's fluid and it can change.
00:10:43.715 --> 00:10:44.743
Give us your MVP list right now.
00:10:44.802 --> 00:10:47.264
I have an honorable mention, but I'm going to save that until after.
00:10:47.264 --> 00:10:49.371
I just have one honorable mention.
00:10:49.371 --> 00:10:52.107
I think it's a valid one, but I'm going to save that until after.
00:10:53.081 --> 00:10:55.004
Number three I got Josh Allen.
00:10:55.004 --> 00:10:57.265
He's put up some good numbers.
00:10:57.265 --> 00:10:59.466
He hasn't turned it over a lot.
00:10:59.466 --> 00:11:04.635
Of course he's put up the touchdowns, the yards, and you know, of course he's put up the touchdowns, the yards.
00:11:04.635 --> 00:11:07.219
For me it's really the record the Bills have and how well he's playing without a digs.
00:11:07.219 --> 00:11:16.909
That shows a lot for him, shows how much he's grown over the last year, a few years, and he's just been kind of carrying the Bills on his back to victory.
00:11:16.909 --> 00:11:19.047
So yeah, I got Josh Allen in there.
00:11:19.047 --> 00:11:20.365
I think he deserves to be in the mix.
00:11:26.700 --> 00:11:27.522
Number two this, this kind of a shocker.
00:11:27.522 --> 00:11:27.981
I have saquon barkley.
00:11:28.001 --> 00:11:39.451
He's been playing amazing this year, like especially lately, like carrying them running touchdowns, even receiving, like he's just been doing everything and like it's just really the impact he has on the eagles.
00:11:39.451 --> 00:11:43.793
I think he's added a whole new element that's scary and that they didn't have last year.
00:11:43.793 --> 00:12:14.181
Deandre swift played much better last year and he's on the eagles and how he is playing in chicago, but so the philly backs have always been good, but I think saquon being there has just added another level of just like scariness for them and I think that's why he's in the conversation and number one I got lamar uh, he's just been he's been playing amazing, leading the league and well up there in touchdown passes, passing for a ton of more yards than he's ever passed for okay in this amount.
00:12:14.321 --> 00:12:19.192
So hasn't turned it over, still been running, uh, for a lot of yards and touchdowns.
00:12:19.192 --> 00:12:25.077
So I just think he's really playing more like a pure quarterback that can run elitely.
00:12:25.359 --> 00:12:25.500
Okay.
00:12:28.225 --> 00:12:30.769
He's kind of playing like Kyler, if he threw it more.
00:12:30.890 --> 00:12:38.106
Okay, but Tyler, is he kind of playing like Josh Allen, or do you think more like Kyler?
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:41.125
That's actually a better comparison.
00:12:41.147 --> 00:12:42.009
You think more like Josh Allen?
00:12:42.100 --> 00:12:43.668
He is playing kind of reckless like Josh.
00:12:43.870 --> 00:12:44.595
Allen a little bit.
00:12:44.595 --> 00:12:45.163
Yes, he is running reckless.
00:12:45.163 --> 00:12:46.028
Yeah, I think that's a better comparison.
00:12:46.048 --> 00:12:47.054
He is playing kind of reckless like Josh Allen.
00:12:47.075 --> 00:12:47.697
Yes, he is running, reckless yeah.
00:12:47.719 --> 00:12:51.129
I think that's a better comparison.
00:12:51.129 --> 00:12:51.570
That's it.
00:12:51.570 --> 00:12:53.394
And then my honorable mention is Derrick Henry.
00:12:53.394 --> 00:13:03.386
I would have had him over Saquon, but I just think Saquon's impact on the Eagles was a little bigger and two Ravens in the top three.
00:13:03.386 --> 00:13:05.460
He has had a big impact.
00:13:05.460 --> 00:13:06.865
Had to pick Lamar.
00:13:07.147 --> 00:13:14.014
Derrick, and he's probably had the play of the year with that run where he jumped over the guys.
00:13:14.701 --> 00:13:21.254
You think I can pull off a backwards hurl you know what.
00:13:21.336 --> 00:13:21.716
I'm saying Ah.
00:13:22.160 --> 00:13:23.687
Question is do you think you can pull off a backwards hurl?
00:13:23.687 --> 00:13:24.773
I don't know If I get the right angle.
00:13:24.793 --> 00:13:25.857
Do you think you can pull off a backwards hurdle?
00:13:25.857 --> 00:13:27.544
I don't know If I get the right angle.
00:13:27.544 --> 00:13:28.168
I think I can.
00:13:28.168 --> 00:13:30.428
You might be able to jump over.
