00:00Let's first talk about what probably was the worst of the four title fights.

00:04I mean, he had four title fights, two-ish night, some great fights,

00:07but then there was one that left some serious lacking,

00:10and that was Austin No Doubt Trout defending his title against Carlos Trindad's Snake.

00:14I mean, CTS got the knockdown the first round.

00:16He's up 10-8.

00:17You figured, oh, man, the young buck's going to come take this title,

00:20and then he just tried to coast on one round the rest of the way.

00:23I don't even know how it got to a six, honestly.

00:25I had it done after five.

00:26What did you see, you know, ringside there as these two were battling,

00:29and really not really throwing for four of the five rounds?

00:33Well, you know, what I really recognized right from the beginning is Austin Trout,

00:38he's had a lot of championship rounds, and Carlos Trindad's Snake has not,

00:42and that's a huge difference.

00:43I mean, I think Carlos, next time he'll have a better understanding,

00:46and just like sometimes the big bright lights make it a little bit different.

00:49I think he will understand, hey, I have to throw more punches.

00:52But Trout, just a constant professional, it is that experience.

00:55Those eight, so many, whatever, how many title fights you've had,

00:58those rounds you've done, that is immeasurable to have that kind of experience,

01:03and you utilize that, and you know where to throw and where not to throw.

01:06He did enough.

01:07He went there, started laying a lot of left hands in the body, got inside.

01:10He was just busier.

01:11He was active, and he landed more shots.

01:14Yeah, and I mean, I know they always say that the judges are supposed to be

01:16impartially, not supposed to give a little more credit to one guy or the other,

01:19but that title always does.

01:20And to be the champ, you have to beat the champ,

01:22and he certainly did not try to beat the champ.

01:24It seemed like after he got that knockdown, he just fought not to lose,

01:27which was weird, given what we've seen from him before.

01:29But hopefully, we'll probably see him back very soon.

01:31The young guy, a lot of great wins under his belt,

01:34so we'll see what is next and if he learns from this one.

01:36But someone who has learned from title losses

01:39and has turned it into just dominating title defenses now, of course,

01:43is Britton Hart.

01:44She had that one against Ty Emery here, just another situation.

01:47Ever since she's dropped down to 115 and got this title,

01:49it's just a showcase for her.

01:52It seems like every time Ty Emery had some great punches.

01:54She had some power that she showed at times, but it was another, you know,

01:57just clinic of Britton Hart moving and sticking, hitting you,

02:00getting out of the way, and just doing her thing for five rounds,

02:03picking her opponent apart.

02:04I mean, Britton Hart is just unbelievably good, unbelievably talented.

02:08But just, more than that, she's just, she epitomizes it

02:12when we say you have to be a dog.

02:13Every time she gets hit, she fires back with harder punches.

02:16I mean, that's something you can't teach.

02:19That's something that has to be, I don't know if it's born into you

02:21or it's just beating you through life.

02:22I don't know what it is, but Britton Hart has it in spades.

02:25Every time she comes to fight, I mean, Ty, I thought,

02:28very formidable opponent.

02:30She's so strong, so powerful.

02:31And every time she cracked Britt,

02:32Britt came right back with two, three punches of her own.

02:35That was an unbelievable fight.

02:37I mean, both those females are warriors.

02:39They went to battle.

02:41I mean, Ty Emery's face was a wreck at the end.

02:43And Britt is just, I mean, I don't know what to say about her,

02:45tough as nails.

02:46And her confidence is just at such a level right now.

02:49You're not bringing it to her.

02:51I mean, she's going to fire back every time.

02:52I don't think people are knocking her out.

02:54She's just the queen of 115.

02:56I don't know what else to say about it.

02:58And, you know, it's not even like some novel striking.

03:01She's doing some crazy angles.

03:02Just simple one-two, one-two.

03:04And she just picks you apart the whole fight.

03:05And it probably frustrates you even more so

03:07when it's just the same two punches that she's just eating you up with

03:10as you keep going round after round.

03:11You also had an incredible comeback there from Tello.

03:15Hamasi won the first two rounds, it looked like.

03:17And then Tello just comes through and just starts knocking him down,

03:21knocking him down before he gets the finish there.

03:23And, you know, kind of a sad fight there with the former UFC,

03:27you know, longtime heavyweight Alexi Olenek, the bow reconstrictor,

03:30not fighting because he wants to, as he flat out said,

03:32just fighting because he has to and taking a beating in his BKFC debut.

03:37Yeah, that was tough.

03:38Man, just some extremely powerful fighters.

03:43I remember the guy trying to take his shirt off at Wayne's.

03:46He couldn't barely get it off.

03:47It was unreal.

03:48I was like, this dude's an absolute animal.

03:50He's a monster.

03:51I still think if that fight gets past the first round,

03:55maybe halfway through the second round, he tires out.

03:57You know, if he could have got worn out a little bit.

04:00But, man, nobody's taken too many of those shots.

04:03That guy looked like a physical specimen.

04:04Hits very hard.
