00:00
And where is the fight? Is it in Florida?
00:02
Um, the first card is in Los Angeles, but we're going to be traveling all over the world.
00:07
Yeah, all over the world. So are you making good money?
00:10
Oh, absolutely. And beyond that, they're taking care of the athletes.
00:13
We get a 50% revenue share, which is really unheard of in the MMA.
00:17
And who are these people with all this money?
00:19
That's a good question. It's the GFL.
00:21
So, but I mean, it has to be a collaboration of people with money.
00:24
So like, I think because, you know, there's been a lot of,
00:26
there's been a lot of fight leagues that have come and gone,
00:29
like passing gas. Do you believe in them for the long term?
00:35
Oh, I believe in them. They've definitely proven themselves to me already.
00:38
And I have a very, very good team behind me that does fact checking and
00:43
from everything that they've fact checked.
00:45
So are you, are you getting, um, you like doing the TV shows and filming TV shows?
00:50
Like you did dancing. I've done a million shows in my career.
00:54
I was on MTV and everything else. I've filmed movies.
00:57
I thought it was so much fun filming TV shows way more than like,
01:01
I do TV every day for a living. You seem like you like TV.
01:03
But I actually liked filming movies better.
01:06
And like the craft services where they cook,
01:08
they're cooking filet mignon and omelets for you all day.
01:11
Whenever you want, you got your own filet here.
01:12
They don't have anything here. This place sucks.
01:15
Like you have your own trailer. You know what I mean?
01:17
Like, wasn't it cool? Yeah.
01:18
Do you like it better than being punched?
01:20
I like movies. Well, no, I like movies better than TV.
01:23
I feel like movies are way better than TV.
01:25
Movies are better than TV, but no.
01:27
Hannah, are you doing any TV shows?
01:29
I have not done any. But I think you should.
01:31
I would love to.
01:32
I think once you guys take over the global league,
01:34
you should start doing more TV shows together.
01:36
And then once you make the real big money doing TV and making movies,
01:39
then you won't have to be punched in the face anymore.
01:42
From the movies I've been in, GFL is taking care of us far better than movies.
01:45
Now listen, you can't possibly, uh, how long do you...
01:48
Are you trying to convince us to change our career path here?
01:51
Yes. What's going on?
01:51
At some point, I'm worried about you being punched in the face and in your brain.
01:55
I want you to be making movies and make tons of money and be famous that way.
01:59
You're great fighters, but you can't do it forever.
02:02
Like all these fighters get older, right?
02:04
Yeah, doing it while we can.
02:05
Well, you're doing it while you can, which is awesome.
02:07
Where did you start fighting?
02:09
Orlando is where I'm at now.
02:11
And that's really where I started my training.
02:13
And, um, yeah, I've been there for the last 10 years.
02:17
And that's my home.
02:18
Where did you grow up?
02:19
I grew up in Oregon.
02:20
Oh, in Oregon. Where in Oregon?
02:21
Uh, the Pacific Northwest. So...
02:23
Yeah, I know it. I've been to Eugene.
02:26
Near Eugene.
02:27
I like it there. They have good weed there.
02:29
Are we on the air? Can you talk about the weed?
02:31
No? No? That's a no.
02:32
Um, they have great weed in Oregon.
02:34
I've heard.
02:34
They really do.
02:35
Uh, I just wanted to say that just for the sake of the people there and the civilians.
02:40
Uh, so who are you fighting in your first fight? Do you know?
02:42
Oh, we haven't been told yet.
02:43
Oh, what is it? Like a surprise?
02:45
No, I mean, we're still so far out.
02:47
So typically, uh, fight camps are six to eight weeks.
02:50
So as the date approaches, I mean, we just found out that the...
02:54
Yeah, the draft just happened.
02:55
We just got picked to our team.
02:57
So, uh, information will be unfolding.
02:59
Woodley's in it. Holly Holm. I know her.
03:02
I know Frank Mir. I know Chris Weidman. He just retired.
03:04
I'm really good friends with Uriah. I call him Heap Faber.
03:08
And, uh, Shogun.
03:10
I know every single one of these fighters in this, uh, league.
03:13
That is fantastic. Now I know both of you.
03:15
Thanks for coming on Coast to Coast.
