  1. FAME REALLY CHANGED TIM.
    HE QUICKLY WENT FROM PREPARED COACH TO UNFOCUSED COACH. HOPE THE OLD TIM WILL BE BACK.

  2. Diesel such a G humble enough to share that moment with Randy when he was a young kid, & thank em for that. Mofuckas “too cool” to bring up something like that.

  3. crazy how all these dudes have taken and given out enough abuse to kill an elephant. but yet here they are lmfao. Great podcast

  4. Joe trained at Miletich in the past it be cool to get some of those guys from the past on, Jeremy horn, Robbie lawler, Pat miletich, Jen’s pulver etc

  5. They paid this mf 25k but dudes now get 50k to show… which is worth LESS than that $25,000 in 96. $297 less.

  6. Joe get a VersaCimber!!! Best cardio machine while keeping the pounding off your legs. I got one because I was fighting years ago and the genera Nick Diaz was sponsored by them, first person I saw sponsored by them too. Had to get one and they’re the best

  7. Randy seems so switched on and a genuinely chill dude . Riggs you funny bastard and timbo thanks for the pod , somehow always have the perfect balance of fight questions and my internal stoner questions . Big love from Australia 💙

  8. Fedora was effing crazy good, But so is Randy couture but he didn't have a organization helping him out as much as they could,,, I love Randy but still for door was crazy for knocking out Tim Sylvia and Aurloskey back-to-back

  9. Love the pod Tim and love seeing Joe on. Joe if you’re reading this we absolutely love your stories on the pod please never stop coming on you make this pod even cooler just being on it man

  10. Randy is 100% on the Mount Rushmore of MMA don't give 2 shits if anyone disagrees nobody accomplished what he did!

  11. Tim the sean title fight exposed the fickle fans but i met you at 288 and knew before you were a good dude but that solidified it further, always got a fan here, God bless

  12. Randy is wrong on Francis walk around weight Francis said himself he walks at 280-290 there’s even a videos before he left the ufc him on the scales he was 295

  13. The American GOAT.
    Captain America.
    Met him at that Arnold’s after beating Silvia for the belt…got a photo with him.

  14. Lesnar 81inch reach

    and I heard Francis has to cut to make HW

    this is from Google but i probably believe Randy more.

    Good questions at the end when Tim wanted to wrap it up a touch early

  15. Randall " Tex" Cobb… check him out…not an MMA fighters , but a kickboxer , boxer , actor…check him out on YouTube… Hoping that someone will have him on their to podcast…h e is a legend and damned funny…
