The last ride
Hey Ariel,
on the latest episode of the Joe Rogan Podcast with Belal Muhammad, the two talked about his fight against Sean Brady and Brady saying that someone on the internet threatened him or his wife that he would bury him in the desert.
Jamie said that Sean told this on your show, to which Rogan said that you like to make people say certain things. What are your thoughts on that?
I think it's a shame that he seems to have such an opinion of you and we will probably never see you and him on a show together.
Best regards from Northern Germany to the whole crew, you make time go by faster at work.
Hello Ariel!
On Monday’s show, you and the guys briefly discussed UFC / WWE comparisons. It got me thinking, and two immediate comparisons came to mind:
Jorge Masvidal and Razor Ramon
Ben Askren and Bob Backlund
Both MMA fighters resemble their WWE counterparts in appearance, personality, and fighting style. Masvidal famously KO’d Askren at UFC 239, and Razor destroyed Backlund in less than 4 minutes at Wrestlemania 9.
Could their possibly be a better UFC/WWE comparison that actually played out in both?
