05:17He's just talking about the general state of things in Japan and general state of things

05:24in Japanese MMA.

05:25The guy's been talking for an hour.

05:26He's talking about the same stuff.

05:27What are you going to say?

06:13Men.

06:14Did he say why he was on a cross when he came in, Hans?

06:24Is he like the savior of MMA and wrestling tonight?

06:27You know, before we were looking for the word to describe, you know,

06:31because there's not really an analog in America,

06:34but I think the Jesus of Japanese MMA comes close to it,

06:38talking about the importance of it.

06:40Now, we've got some Arabic-looking men strutting the catwalk.

06:42What's all this about?

06:43Hans, you've got to get on with translations.

06:47What the hell's going on here?

06:49I'm a little bit scared here.

06:50I'm just going to back up.

06:51This dude's got a sword in his mouth.

06:52You've got, like, Persian terrorists entering the ring.

06:54You know, he's still talking as if he doesn't see them.

07:00Okay, the terrorist with the orange turban looks a little like me.

07:04I'm a little disturbed by that.

07:06What's going on here, Hans?

07:08Guys are carrying swords.

07:09Swords happening.

07:10Crazy pimp suits here.

07:12This man looks a little wild.

07:16They got weapons.

07:18One of them's got a kendo stick.

07:20One's got a sword.

07:21Be careful.

07:22This is going to be dangerous.

07:23All right.

07:24Mike, I'm just going to stand behind you.

07:27Waste a little guy next to him.

07:28Okay, maybe it's a peaceful thing.

07:37It looks like it.

07:40What's going on here, Hans?

07:42Who is that man wearing the $500,000 wall?

07:45Oh, he's just cracked Inoki over the head!

07:48What's going on here?

07:50Throw one of my limp balls at him, Mike.

07:53What is going on?

07:56He just cracked Inoki over the head with a kendo stick.

08:00See, that's why we have Homeland Security in America.

08:02Inoki's going to take the scarf off.

08:04Inoki's going to slap him.

08:08Inoki's going to do some serious ass-whooping here.

08:11Oh, Inoki's taking the jacket off.

08:17Inoki is not to be messed with.

08:19You've messed with his hair.

08:20You've upset Inoki.

08:23Oh, look at the big man calling him on.

08:26Now, the turban dude, who looks strangely like me,

08:29has taken his jacket off.

08:31Mike, they all look like your relatives.

08:32What's going on here?

08:33Oh, the two turbans are fighting each other!

08:36What's going on here?

08:38I just want to see Inoki deliver a chop to someone.

08:44It's Inoki versus these crazy, turban-wearing, weapon-bearing guys.

08:50This dude with the worst fake beard I've ever seen.

08:53Oh, he said I come in-

08:57Don't fall for his handshake, Inoki!

08:59He said, I come in peace, despite the stick and the sword.

09:02He's not coming in peace.

09:03Carrying a friggin' four-foot stick and a bunch of flowers and a sword.

09:07He said, the little guy next to us has yet to do anything.

09:10So, Mike, if Inoki strikes this guy, we take this guy down.

09:13Okay, you and me can handle him both.

09:14We're tackling this dude right here.

09:15And Hans, you just try and translate it best you can.

09:18We let Inoki handle the two turban guys, we hit the little guy next to us.

09:21Look at the little guy.

09:22Ooh, there's the kendo stick to Inoki.

09:27Inoki's gonna smack someone.

09:28I can feel it, Mike.

09:31I don't know what's going on.

09:33I don't think the crowd knows what's going on.

09:35But it's so exciting!

09:40Okay, now, Orange Turban is down in front of our commentary position here.

09:45Okay, they're leaving.

09:47All right, they've given the kendo stick to Inoki and the sword.

09:50Inoki's handing back the sword.

09:53Little turban dude still hasn't moved.

09:57And, well, obviously, Inoki's not gonna kick their ass just because they're left.

10:02Okay.

10:03So, that was very strange.

10:07He said, I haven't been hit in a long time, it hurts.

10:14He said, in order to close off a year, as I was saying.

10:21Let's close everything up.

10:24Wait a minute.

10:25What the hell just happened?

10:26What the hell was that all about, Han?

10:27You can't, you can't.

10:28Talk about respect for elderly.

10:29What's going on here?

10:30A hundred-year-old Inoki?

10:31Is that you gonna beat me here, Han?

10:33He's 68, by the way.

10:35He's 68.

10:37Whatever.

10:38Three turban guys show up, kick his butt.

10:39Who are the three random turban guys?

10:41I have no idea.

10:42What was it the random cross that Inoki came out of?

10:44Why didn't they have a camel?

10:45I mean, what the hell is going on here?

10:46Whose bars of flowers are they in the ring?

10:48Why are they still there?

10:49This is why it is difficult to translate those things.

10:51I have no idea who those guys are.

10:53Nobody's talking.

10:54What are you seeing?

10:55Who is.

10:56Me.

10:57Son.

10:58Who is.

10:59Me.

11:00Son.

11:01You know?

11:02Ha ha ha.

11:03That's what I was waiting for.

11:08I'm gonna try and touch it again, Mike.

11:10I have to say in seven years of coming here, that is the most bizarre thing I've ever witnessed.

11:14Who was that picture of that had?

11:16Was it Ricky Dolzan?

11:17It might have been Ricky Dolzan.

11:18I'm not quite sure.

11:19Anyway, that was all a bit strange, but highly entertaining.
