00:00A good example, Tom, is this fight next here I want to talk about with Durden and Osborne.
00:07I mean, you know, Durden, bro, he's lost like five of his last six fights, six of his last eight
00:11fights.
00:13That would have been unheard of in the old days.
00:15Like, you wouldn't have lasted.
00:16They would have been like, no, you got to go.
00:17You got to go.
00:18They need fighters now.
00:19So if you're entertaining and you lose, fine.
00:22They're not going to hate you for it.
00:23But both these guys both need a win.
00:26Like, between Osborne and this guy, one of these guys needs to walk out of there with a win.
00:31It's basically a pick-em.
00:32What do you think of this one?
00:35Yeah, this is a tough one.
00:36I mean, Cody Durden, a guy I made a lot of money on, you know, early on in his UFC
00:41run.
00:42I got dog numbers on him a few times that, you know, really just made no sense.
00:47He was one of those guys, grinder, wrestler, just going to, like you said, he's going to bring the fight.
00:54He's going to, he's one of those scrappy dogs that, you know, you really kind of like to back because
00:59you feel like he's a good dude.
01:02You hear him talk.
01:03He just seems like a good dude, hardworking guy.
01:05And he brings it.
01:07And, you know, I cast a lot of tickets on him.
01:09But when you're not the highest level of guy and your style is to be kind of gritty, it does
01:18tend to fade pretty hard at the end of your career.
01:20And that's kind of what we're seeing with Durden.
01:22And he's fighting Osborne who, you know, I've lost a lot of money on this guy.
01:28He's got a lot of skills.
01:29He's got power.
01:30He's able to grapple.
01:33He's a very well-rounded guy.
01:34But, you know, fight IQ, not always there.
01:37I've had, you know, fights where I'm like, yes, O'Day is just dominating.
01:41And then the next thing you know, he's getting, he's diving in for a takedown and he's getting guillotined.
01:46And it's just like, dude, come on, what are you doing?
01:49So, very, very tough.
01:51Both guys kind of chinny.
01:53Both guys do have some upside here.
01:57It's tough for me.
01:58I feel like O'Day probably gets it done.
02:00I feel like he definitely has the power to knock Durden out.
02:04But if Durden goes back to his wrestling roots and really just kind of pushes a high pace, I feel
02:10like he can win this fight.
02:11But when it all comes down to it, first of all, I think the fight ends.
02:16I don't think it goes to decision.
02:17So, if you want to bet, you know, a fight doesn't go, that might be a way to go.
02:21I think one of these guys does get finished.
02:24But I feel like O'Day kind of, he's just kind of got the power.
02:28And Durden's chin really has been a problem recently.
02:32So, I really, I have to lean, I have to lean O'Day here.
02:36But, yeah, to me, this is just, this is just a kind of a toss-up scrap war.
02:41And one of these guys is getting finished, I think.
02:45All right, we've only got two minutes already.
02:46Time is really flying by here.
02:48What was your final decision with the Smith and Brown?
02:51What was all said and done?
02:52What are you going to do there?
02:53Because a popular parlay, I was looking at this.
02:57I've seen other people like this as well.
02:58Now, everybody's on Zachary Reese, so against Mickey Gall.
03:01Will you agree with that, that Reese is going to beat Gall?
03:04Yeah, I do think Reese probably should win that fight.
03:07Another kind of, you know, rough fight on paper.
03:10But I do think Reese probably should win that fight.
