[MUSIC]
[MUSIC]
(VOICEOVER) MMA INSIDE THE CAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
(CASEY) WELCOME TO MMA INSIDE THE CAGE BRINGING THE WORLD
OF MIXED MARTIAL ARTS STRAIGHT TO YOU.
I'M YOUR HOST CASEY OXENDINE AND I'M JOINED BY MY
VERY SPECIAL GUEST CO-HOST LL NATE JOLLY WHO IS COVERING
FOR MY USUAL SIDE KICK CYRUS FEES.
YOU KNOW NATE YOU ALWAYS SEEM TO PICK UP THE BALL AND
RUN WHEN CYRUS FEES GOES AWOL.
(NATE) WELL YOU KNOW WHEN CYRUS FEES GOES AWOL IT'S
THE ONLY TIME I REALLY GET TO PUT SOME OF THAT SPECIAL
STYLE THAT I HAVE ON THIS SET.
IT DOESN'T NEED IT ALL THE TIME BUT EVERY ONCE IN
A WHILE, YOU GOT TO MIX IT UP.
(CASEY) WELL THE LL NATE JOLLY STYLE CERTAINLY SPICES
THINGS UP.
YOU KNOW THIS WEEK WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A LOOK BACK AT
THE HUGE EVENT THAT WAS UFC 146.
OUR WEST COAST CORRESPONDENT IRIS GARCIA WAS OUT THERE
IN VEGAS GRABBING A TON OF KILLER INTERVIEWS AND
GETTING ALL THE BEHIND THE SCENES STUFF.
NOW WE'LL ALSO CHECK OUT THE RECENT DOCUMENTARY THAT
COVERS ONE OF THE LAST WEEKEND'S BIGGEST WINNERS
DAN HARDY.
PLUS WE WILL GET SOME HEATED COMMENTS FROM URIJAH FABER
AND DOMINICK CRUZ FROM THE TWO EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS THAT
WE GRABBED THERE.
IT'S ALL THAT PLUS A BIG MAIN EVENT.
BUT FIRST IT'S TIME FOR OUR BREAKING STORY OF THE WEEK.
OF COURSE UFC 146 HAD A TON OF HYPE AND A VERY WELL
MATCHED CARD WITH A TON OF STAR POWER.
FORMER WEC CHAMP MIKE BROWN KICKED THINGS OFF IN
THE UNDERCARD WITH A UNANIMOUS DECISION VICTORY OVER
DANIEL PINEDA.
THEN OF COURSE GLOVER TEIXEIRA AND PAUL SASS BOTH
GRABBED ROUND ONE SUBMISSIONS AND IT WAS DAN HARDY
LEADING OFF THE FX PORTION OF THE CARD WITH A SICK KO
OVER DUANE BANG LUDWIG.
(IRIS) GOT OUT HERE WITH DAN HARDY WHO JUST DEFEATED
DUANE LUDWIG IN UFC 146, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR VICTORY.
HOW EMOTIONAL WAS THIS VICTORY FOR YOU?
(DAN) YOU KNOW THIS, WAS AND I KNOW PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY IT
BUT THIS WAS THE BIGGEST FIGHT EVER FOR ME.
YOU KNOW THERE WAS A LOT ON THE LINE FOR THIS.
YOU KNOW MY LIFE WOULD HAVE GONE ONE OF TWO WAYS
AFTER THIS FIGHT AND I DIDN'T KNOW OR DIDN'T HAVE ANY
REAL CONTROL OVER IT.
SO, ALL I HAD TO DO WAS JUST PREPARE MYSELF BEST I
COULD AND GET IN THERE WITH THE FRAME OF MIND THAT I
HAVE THE ABILITY TO WIN AND I DID THAT.
YOU KNOW I'M THANKFUL FOR COMING OUT ON TOP TONIGHT
AND I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE FUTURE NOW.
(CASEY) CB DOLLAWAY GRINDS OUT THE DECISION VICTORY
OVER JASON MAYHEM MILLER.
(IRIS) HERE WITH CB DOLLOWAY WHO JUST DEFEATED JASON
MAYHEM MILLER, CONGRATULATIONS IN THAT VICTORY.
WHERE YOU AT ALL FRUSTRATED WITH HIS ANTICS AND OFF
THE GONG, DANCE AROUND A LITTLE EVEN WHEN YOU
PUNCHING HIM, MOVING HIS HEAD AROUND?
(CB) NO, I EXPECTED ALL OF THAT.
MY HEAD COACH TOM VAUGHN SAID, DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO IT.
DON'T GET SUCKED INTO IT, THAT'S HIS GAME, NOT
YOUR GAME, STICK TO OUR GAME PLAN, DO WHAT YOU'RE
SUPPOSE TO DO AND YOU'LL COME OUT ON TOP SO.
SO WE DID.
(IRIS) HERE YOU GO.
(CASEY) COULD BE CURTAINS FOR MAYHEM THERE IN THE UFC.
(NATE) YEAH, IT'S UNFORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCE TO.
YOU KNOW HE'S A GREAT ATHLETE, DIDN'T HAVE A GOOD
FIGHT, UNFORTUNATELY BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU KNOW
HE FOUGHT HIMSELF A GUY.
HE FOUGHT A GUY THAT'S AN EXCELLENT WRESTLER AND
HE STAYED ON TOP AND DID WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO TO WIN.
UNFORTUNATELY FOR MAYHEM APPARENTLY THIS IS JUST
THE RUMOR ON THE STREET, HE GOT A LITTLE
AGITATED BACKSTAGE AND MAYBE SAID SOME THINGS HE
SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID, MAYBE GOT A LITTLE OUT, I DON'T KNOW
BUT DANA WHITE DID ANNOUNCE THAT BECAUSE OF HIS
ANTICS BACKSTAGE THAT HE'S NOT GOING TO BE INVITED BACK
TO THE UFC, AT LEAST NOT RIGHT NOW.
(CASEY) ALWAYS SOMETHING CRAZY FROM MAYHEM.
THEN JAMIE VARNER MAKES HIS RETURN TO THE BIG SHOW
HANDING EDSON BARBOZA HIS FIRST LOSS VIA TKO ROUND ONE.
(JAMIE) YOU KNOW I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I'M LIKE IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING.
I HONESTLY, IT WAS SURREAL BECAUSE I HIT HIM WITH
ONE SHOT EARLIER AND I ACTUALLY BACKED UP AND
MY TRAINER'S LIKE PUT PRESSURE ON HIM, PUT PRESSURE ON HIM.
BUT I'M LIKE THERE'S NO WAY THAT HURT HIM, THEN I WENT
IN THERE AND HIT HIM AGAIN AND I SAW HIS EYES ROLLING BACK
IN THE HEAD AND I'M LIKE YEAH, I DID HURT HIM, LET'S GO.
SO I JUST, I WANTED TO STAY ON HIM BECAUSE HE'S SO TOUGH
AND SO DYNAMIC.
I DIDN'T WANT TO GET CAUGHT WITH ANYTHING.
SO I STAYED ON HIM.
YOU KNOW I HAD, I TASTED BLOOD IN THE WATER AND JUST
WENT AFTER HIM AND WENT FOR THE KILL.
(CASEY) AND DARREN ELKINS SNAGS A HUGE UPSET WIN
OVER LAST YEARS ULTIMATE FIGHTER WINNER DIEGO BRANDAO.
OKAY THEN IT WAS TIME FOR THE MAIN CARD, WITH STEFAN
STRUVE SUBBING LAVAR JOHNSON IN ROUND ONE, STIPE
MIOCIC STOPPING SHANE DEL ROSARIO ROUND TWO, AND
ROY NELSON WITH A BIG KO OVER DAVE HERMAN.
MAN THAT WAS OUTSTANDING, WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON ROY NELSON?
(NATE) WELL MY TAKE ON ROY NELSON IS THIS I THINK
IT'S REALLY COOL THAT THIS SPORT STARTED WITH A
WHOLE BUNCH OF GUYS THINKING HEY I CAN DO THAT AND
HE ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE A FAT GUY THAT WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO FIGHT, THAT WOULD BE SITTING AT A BAR SOMEWHERE.
HE COMES IN THERE KNOCKS A VERY TALENTED GUY OUT, COLD.
(CASEY) HE HAD TANK ABBOTT STYLE.
(NATE) YEAH, EXACTLY AND SO A LOT OF PEOPLE MAY NOT LIKE HIM.
HE DOESN'T HAVE THE FIGHTER LOOK, BUT HE'S A
FIGHTER THROUGH AND THROUGH, YOU KNOW.
HE LIKES ENTERTAINING FANS AND THAT'S YOU KNOW PROBABLY
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT HIM THE MOST.
(CASEY) YEAH, AND BJJ BLACK BELT TO BOOT.
THEN IT WAS TIME FOR THE CO-MAIN EVENT WE'RE
TALKING CAIN VELASQUEZ UTTERLY DOMINATING BIG FOOT SILVA
IN ONE OF THE BLOODIEST FIGHTS I'VE SEEN IN A VERY, VERY
LONG TIME.
CAIN GETS THE ROUND ONE TKO AND THEN IT'S MAIN EVENT
TIME, THE HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE WAS ON THE LINE AS
CHAMP JUNIOR DOS SANTOS DOMINATES FORMER CHAMP
FRANK MIR, TAKING HOME THE ROUND TWO TKO, WHICH WAS
MY PREDICTION.
NOW NATE WHAT WAS YOUR TAKE ON THAT FIGHT.
(NATE) YOU KNOW MY TAKE ON THAT FIGHT WAS IT WAS A
GOOD FIGHT.
JUNIOR DOS SANTOS STUCK TO THE GAME PLAN AND IT WORKED FOR HIM.
I WOULD HAVE HOWEVER LIKED TO SEE FRANK MIR GET A HOLD
ON BOTTOM AND SEE WHAT HE COULD HAVE DONE.
IN MY OPINION FRANK'S BEEN IN, YOU KNOW WELL IT'S
NOT OPINION, HE'S BEEN IN FOR ABOUT 10 OR 11 YEARS AND
I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SEE HIM MAYBE GET A CHANCE TO GET
ON TOP ONE MORE TIME BEFORE HE YOU KNOW BEFORE HE HANGS IT UP.
BUT IT WAS A GREAT FIGHT (CASEY) WELL YOU KNOW CAIN
AND JUNIOR BOTH LOOKED INCREDIBLE.
SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE THOSE TWO LOCKING UP
NEXT TIME FOR THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP.
(JUNIOR) MY FISTS TALK FOR ME.
WHEN MY FIST TALK FOR ME, EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS,
THEY ARE THIS LANGUAGE EVERYBODY CAN UNDERSTAND IT.
(CASEY) WELL BIG THANKS TO IRIS GARCIA FOR THOSE
BIG INTERVIEWS.
NEXT ROUND WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE BIG DAN HARDY
DOCUMENTARY EVERYONE HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT.
BUT FIRST GET YOUR GUARD UP BECAUSE IT'S TIME FOR THE
MMA INSIDE THE CAGE HIT PARADE.
(CROWD NOISE AND FIGHT SOUNDS) (CROWD CHEERING) (COM1) SUCH
A GOOD WELL ROUNDED GAME POSSESSED BY JIM ALERS
AND HE'S THROWING DOWN A LOT OF UNANSWERED SHOTS IN
THIS CRUCIFIX.
(COM2) YEAH MATTEUS IS GOING TO HAVE TO START MOVING
HERE, (COM1) THIS IS GOING TO BE DIFFICULT TO GET OUT
OF THIS POSITION.
THE REFEREE RICH MITCHELL IS TAKING A CLOSER LOOK (COM2)
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH POWER THESE SHOTS HAVE GOT IN
THE ELBOWS MIGHT DO SOME MORE DAMAGE.
(COM1) YEAH, ABSOLUTELY THESE ELBOWS ARE GOING TO BE
VERY HURTFUL AND THAT IS ENOUGH FOR RICH MITCHELL
AND JIM THE BEAST ALERS.
(CROWD CHEERING) (FIGHT SOUNDS) (COM1) HE'S
JUST GETTING TAGGED.
THIS IS WHAT RAYMOND WANTED TO DO THE FIRST ROUND AND
LET'S SEE IF HE CAN PUT HIM AWAY.
(BELL RINGING) (COM1) HE PUTS HIM AWAY AT THREE MINUTES
AND 14 SECONDS.
(COM1) NOT JEREMY HORN BUT I'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT WHEN
HE GETS OVER HERE.
(CROWD NOISE AND FIGHT SOUNDS) (COM1) OH MY GOODNESS
THE (CROWD NOISE AND BELL RINGING) (COM1) OH
MY GOODNESS, THAT'S A HIGHLIGHT REEL, EL PSYCHO
WITH THE HIT.
OHH!
(CROWD CHEERING) (COM2) AND WHAT IS UP THAT IS A
NASTY KNOCK OUT.
[MUSIC]
[COMMERCIALS]
[MUSIC]
(VOICEOVER) MMA INSIDE THE CAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
(CASEY) ALL RIGHT WE ARE BACK, ROUND TWO ACTION.
YOU KNOW DAN HARDY IS ONE OF THOSE FIGHTERS THAT
HAS EXPERIENCED THE UPS AND DOWNS OF THIS SPORT IN SO
MANY WAYS.
YOU KNOW HE BEGAN HIS TEAR THROUGH THE UFC WITH FOUR
BIG CONSECUTIVE WINS, WHICH LANDED HIM THAT TITLE
SHOT WITH WELTERWEIGHT KING GSP, AND ALTHOUGH YOU
KNOW HARDY WOULD BRING A GAME ATTEMPT HE WOULD LOSE
THAT BOUT AS WELL AS THREE CONSECUTIVE FOLLOWING.
AS WE KNOW NOW, HE DID BREAK THAT LOSING STREAK THIS
PAST WEEKEND WITH THAT INCREDIBLE KNOCK OUT
OVER VETERAN DUANE LUDWIG.
BUT LEADING UP THERE WAS THIS VERY SPECIAL DOCUMENTARY
BEING FILMED THAT FOLLOWED THE UNIQUE STRUGGLES THAT
DAN HARDY DEALT WITH IN THIS DO OR DIE SITUATION WITH UFC.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT RIGHT NOW.
(MUSIC)
(DAN) MY NAME IS DAN HARDY, A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW
ME AS THE OUTLAW.
(MUSIC)
(DAN) I'M A PROFESSIONAL FIGHTER.
(MUSIC)
(DAN) I WAS BORN IN NOTTINGHAM ENGLAND.
I LIKE TO FIGHT.
I HAVE A LOT OF TATTOOS AND MOWHAWK; I DON'T MIND HAVE A
BIT OF ATTENTION DRAWN TO MYSELF.
(MUSIC)
(DAN) I GET PAID TO BEAT PEOPLE UP AND I
LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
(LAUGHTER) (MUSIC)
(DAN) I HAVE, I HAVE A LOT OF FUN.
WHEN SOMEBODY SIGNS A CONTRACT TO FIGHT ME, THEY
OBVIOUSLY THINK A LOT OF THEMSELF.
THEY THINK THEY'RE BETTER THAN ME AND THEY THINK THEY
CAN PROVE IT.
I TAKE THAT AS A PERSONAL INSULT.
(MUSIC)
(DAN) THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO ME
IS MAKING THEM REGRET THINKING THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO FIGHT ME.
I WANT THEM TO KNOW THAT I'M BETTER THAN THEM AND I
WANT THEM TO KNOW THAT MY INTENTION IS TO HURT THEM.
(MUSIC)
(CASEY) WELL YOU KNOW NATE THAT DOCUMENTARY LOOKS TO
ME VERY, VERY INTERESTING.
DAN HARDY IS ONE OF THOSE SPOTS, YOU KNOW TALK A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE UP AND DOWN AND
YOU KNOW HE WAS ON THE CUSP OF BEING CUT.
YOU KNOW WHAT'S THAT FEEL LIKE?
(NATE) WELL YOU KNOW THE BEST WAY I COULD EXPLAIN IT
TO SOMEBODY IS IT'S LIKE LOSING YOUR JOB.
BUT IT'S A JOB THAT YOU'VE WORKED MAYBE 10 OR 15 YEARS
TO FINALLY GET TO THE TOP AND YOU MIGHT LOSE IT JUST
BECAUSE OF A COUPLE OF BAD DAYS AT WORK ON THIS
VERY SCARY SITUATION AND I'M SURE THAT HE IS GLAD AND
EVEN MORE GLAD THAN I AM THAT HE GOT THAT VICTORY THE WAY
HE DID.
YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARE IN A SITUATION WHERE PERFORMANCE
IS THE KEY TO WHETHER YOU LIVE OR YOU DIE, COMING BACK WITH
A STATEMENT LIKE THAT KNOCKING OUT A VETERAN LIKE THAT,
THAT IS DEFINITELY THE WAY YOU WANT TO DO IT IF YOU WANT
TO KEEP YOUR JOB LONG TERM.
(CASEY) WELL YOU KNOW DAN HARDY IS ONE OF THOSE
GUYS THAT I EXPECT TO SEE IN THE UFC FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.
SO EVERYBODY TAKE A LOOK AT THAT DOCUMENTARY WHEN YOU
HAVE A CHANCE.
IT'S CERTAINLY WORTH YOUR TIME.
BUT STICK AROUND RIGHT HERE WHEN WE RETURN FOR ROUND
THREE WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A LOOK AT A COUPLE OF
INTERVIEWS FROM URIJAH FABER AND DOMINICK CRUZ AS WELL
AS OUR MAIN EVENT OF THE WEEK.
[MUSIC]
[COMMERCIALS]
(VOICEOVER) MMA INSIDE THE CAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
(CASEY) ALL RIGHT ROUND THREE ACTION.
YOU KNOW TWO GUYS THAT HAVE STAYED ON THE HOT SEAT
OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS HAVE BEEN URIJAH FABER AND
DOMINICK CRUZ.
THESE GUYS HAVE WENT ONE AND ONE IN BOUTS AGAINST EACH OTHER.
THEN WENT ON TO COACH OPPOSITE DURING THE LAST SEASON OF
THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER.
OF COURSE THEY WERE SLATED TO FACE EACH OTHER YET AGAIN IN
A RUBBER MATCH UNTIL CRUZ WAS UNFORTUNATELY INJURED.
NOW NATE TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS RIVALRY AND WHAT
IT HAS SHAPED UP TO BECOME IN THE WORLD OF MIXED MARTIAL ARTS.
(NATE) WELL THIS RIVALRY IS GETTING TO BE HUGE.
NUMBER ONE, LET'S START OFF WITH BOTH OF THE GUYS.
URIJAH FABER 45 POUNDER, WEC CHAMP, DROPS DOWN TO 35
ALWAYS A RISKY MOVE.
DOMINICK CRUZ ON A TEAR ABOUT THE WEC, ON A TEAR IN THE
UFC, AND I THINK THIS RUBBER MATCH IS GOING TO PROVE TO
BE A PUT UP OR SHUT UP FOR ONE OF THESE GUYS.
I MEAN, YOU CAN'T TALK AS MUCH TRASH AS THEY'VE TALKED
ABOUT EACH OTHER AND NOT HAVE SOMEBODY KIND OF YOU KNOW
BOW DOWN WHEN IT'S OVER.
(CASEY) OH, ABSOLUTELY, WELL IRIS GARCIA WAS OUT THERE
IN VEGAS AT UFC 146 AND SHE CAUGHT UP WITH BOTH
MEN, NEITHER OF WHICH WERE AT A LOSS FOR WORDS.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT RIGHT NOW.
(IRIS) I'M HERE WITH THE UFC BANTAM WEIGHT
CHAMPION DOMINICK CRUZ.
SO UNFORTUNATELY OF COURSE YOUR NOT GOING TO BE
FIGHTING URIJAH, WILL WE BE ABLE TO SEE THAT?
OH, GOOD SO WE ARE?
(DOMINICK) I MEAN THE GUY'S NEVER SHUTS UP.
HE'S ALWAYS GOT EXCUSE.
I'M SURE HE'S JUST NOT GOING TO GO AWAY.
SO I KNOW I'M GOING TO SEE HIM AGAIN AND I'M GOING TO BEAT HIM.
(IRIS) WAS IT REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE WORKING
WITH URIJAH LIKE ON THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER BEING
AROUND HIM SO MUCH?
(DOMINICK) WELL HE'S JUST AN IDIOT.
SO HE SAYS STUPID THINGS ALL THE TIME.
THAT'S THE, I MEAN YOU JUST GOT TO LISTEN TO HIM AND
IT GOES IN ONE EAR AND OUT THE OTHER.
YOU KNOW HE'S JUST GOING TO SAY IGNORANT THINGS AND
YOU JUST IGNORE HIM BECAUSE HIS OPINION DOESN'T
MATTER, WHAT HE SAYS DOESN'T MATTER.
SO YOU JUST, ALL RIGHT, WHATEVER FABER AND YOU
JUST YOU'RE THERE.
IT'S LIKE GOING TO WORK WITH SOMEBODY YOU DON'T
LIKE EVERYDAY.
I MEAN EVERYBODY DOES IT ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
IF YOU CAN DO IT PEOPLE, SO CAN I AND I DID AND YOU
KNOW IT'S OVER, THE SHOWS OVER.
IT'S A BITTER SWEET FEELING.
(IRIS) WOULD YOU STILL FIGHT DOMINICK CRUZ?
I KNOW I SPOKE TO HIM EARLIER AND HE SAY NO MATTER
WHAT HAPPENS HE STILL WANTS TO FIGHT YOU.
(URIJAH) OH YEAH, OF COURSE, I'LL FIGHT HIM RIGHT NOW
IF HE'S HERE.
I THINK HIS HANDS AND LEGS HURT, BUT YEAH, WE'RE GOING
TO FIGHT AGAIN.
YOU THINK AFTER ALL THIS IS DONE ONCE YOU'RE DONE
FIGHTING DOMINICK CRUZ WOULD YOU EVER MAYBE BECOME FRIENDS?
YOU GUYS WILL EVER MAKE A TRUCE, HOPEFULLY?
(URIJAH) I'M NOT AGAINST THAT.
HE'S AN ALL RIGHT GUY.
HE JUST GETS ON MY NERVES.
BUT I HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN MY LIFE THAT GET ON MY NERVES.
SO YOU KNOW I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH TIME WE'LL BE
SPENDING TOGETHER BUT YOU KNOW IT IS WHAT IT IS.
(CASEY) ALL RIGHT THANKS AGAIN TO IRIS AND HER GUMSHOE TACTICS.
BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S TIME FOR FIREWORKS, AS WE PRESENT
OUR MMA INSIDE THE CAGE MAIN EVENT OF THE WEEK.
(COM1) WE HAVE JOHN THE WHITE MIKE TYSON, PHILLIPS IN
THE WHITE SHORTS, TOMAS PENZ IN THE BLACK SHORTS.
TWO, GO TOE TO TOE HERE AT FIGHT NIGHT 6, (COM2)
PHILLIPS LOOKING BIG AT THIS WEIGHT AS HE ALWAYS
DOES IMMEDIATELY, WITH A BODY SHOT.
(COM1) SOME REALLY GREAT BOXING THERE FROM
JOHN PHILLIPS AND THIS IS WHAT WE'RE USED TO SEEING FROM
HIM GETTING THE DISTANCE AND THROWING OFF USING THAT,
THAT BOXING CRAFT THAT HE HONED ON, ON THE (COM2)
HE'S NOT WASTING TIME, (COM1) AMATEUR OLYMPIC CIRCUIT.
(COM2) HE'S NOT WASTING ANY TIME HERE
IMMEDIATELY ENGAGING, FLOWING FORWARD VERY WELL BUT
JUST LEAVING HIMSELF OPEN, GOOD SOLID DOUBLE LEG
FROM TOMAS PENZ.
WE'RE GOING TO SEE WHAT THE GUARD OF THE SWANZE MAN IS LIKE.
HE'S LOOKING FOR A TRIANGLE, IS JOHN PHILLIPS.
BUT PASSING TO HALF GUARD.
A GOOD USE OF THE KNEE SHIELD TO GET BACK IN AND FORCE
A SCRAMBLE BACK TO HIS FEET.
(COM1) YOU KNOW PHILLIPS IS A LITTLE; HE HESITATED FOR
A MOMENT THERE AND PENZ LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GOING TO TAKE
HIS BACK.
HE'S STILL THERE.
HE'S STILL BATTLING FOR IT.
(COM2) YEAH, FANTASTIC SCRAMBLE HERE, EARLY IN
THE FIRST ROUND TWO HOOKS, NOW ONE HOOK, NOW FOR TOMAS
PENZ, JOHN PHILLIPS EXPLOSIVELY TRYING TO
REVERSE OUT AND, EASING UP A LITTLE BIT ON THE HOOKS
AND HIS WRIST CONTROL THAT HE HAD AND JOHN PHILLIPS IS
GOING TO LOOK TO MAKE HIM PAY FOR THIS TOP POSITION NOW.
BETTER BE CAREFUL THAT HE DOESN'T OVER EXTEND HIS
ARMS THOUGH.
PHILLIPS SENT A SIGNAL EARLY WITH THAT BODY SHOT THAT
IT REALLY DIDN'T MATTER IF PENZ KEPT HIS HANDS HIGH.
(COM1) AND A MISTAKE BY PHILLIPS THROWING UP THE
KICK, PENZ CAUGHT IT VERY QUICKLY, TAKES IT BACK
DOWN AND SITS IN SIDE CONTROL.
(COM2) YEAH REALLY NICE COUNTER FORM TOMAS PENZ,
DROVE FORWARD GOT THE PICK UP ON THE LEG CHANGED THE
ANGLE VERY, VERY NICELY, QUITE A HIGH SIDE CONTROL HERE.
BOTH KNEES UP AND YOU SEE HOW HE JUST GAVE A BIT TOO
MUCH SPACE AT THE HIPS TO ALLOW PHILLIPS TO SHRIMP
AND PUT THAT KNEE BACK IN.
(FIGHT SOUNDS)
(COM1) PHILLIPS DOING WELL TO GET HIS HIPS
TO THE SIDE BUT HE JUST SQUARED HIMSELF UP AND
ALLOWED PENZ TO JUST DROP HIS WEIGHT INTO THE GUARD.
(COM2) I THINK PHILLIPS HAS REALIZED THAT HE'S
PROBABLY NOT IN THAT MUCH DANGER FROM TOMAS PENZ IN
THIS POSITION BUT ALL THE SAME I'M SURE HE WOULD RATHER
THE FIGHT BE BACK ON HIS FEET.
(COM1) AND HE'S LOOKING FOR A KIMURA HERE, JOSH ON THE
LEFT SIDE OF PENZ, (COM2) YEP HANDS CONNECTED AND LET'S
SEE IF HE CAN GET HIS HIP OUT TO THE SIDE, REALLY USE
HIS BODY TO OPEN THAT GRIP UP AND TRY TO TRACK THAT
ROTATOR CUFF.
(COM1) HE'S VERY POWERFUL IS PHILLIPS AND HE REALLY
NEEDS TO USE HIS WEIGHT AS WELL TO FREE THAT ARM AND
THEN POWER THROUGH.
YOU CAN SEE PENZ IS GOT HIS HANDS GRIPPED TOGETHER BUT
IF PHILLIPS COULD REALLY CONNECT HIS HIP TO THAT,
BUT HE ABANDONS THOUGH.
IT'S A GOOD SUBMISSION ATTEMPT THOUGH.
HE'S GOING TO MAKE, HE'S MAKING PENZ THINK, SORRY.
(COM2) LAST FEW SECONDS IN THIS FIRST ROUND.
BACK AND FORTH FOR ALL OF THOSE FIVE MINUTES WITH
THESE TWO WARRIORS.
(COM1) VERY NICE FIGHT TO GET US STARTED HERE THOUGH.
WITH THE ALL SYSTEM STRIKING OF JOHN PHILLIPS AGAINST
VERY WELL ROUNDED TOMAS PENZ FROM THE CHECK.
(COM2) I THINK PHILLIPS IS PROBABLY GOING TO REALIZE
THAT KICKS ARE GOING TO LEAVE HIM A BIT TOO OPEN HERE.
HE THROWS HIS HOOK COMBINATIONS VERY WELL.
(CROWD NOISE)
(COM1) PENZ STEP FORWARD GETS CAUGHT WITH
A ONE, TWO.
(COM2) THE CROWD CALLED OUT IN APPRECIATION, JUST
THE POTENTIAL THOSE SHOTS HAD.
(COM1) PHILLIPS REALLY STANDING IN FRONT OF PENZ.
(COM2) OH, NICE A BIT OF JUDO WORK THERE FROM TOMAS PENZ.
(COM1) A GOOD TAKE DOWN AGAIN FROM PENZ.
HE MANAGED TO GET A HOLD OF A SINGLE, PICKED UP SWEEPED
THE LEG OUT AND SIDE CONTROL AGAIN FOR THE CHECK MAN.
(COM2) PENZ TRYING TO PUSH FORWARD WITH THE RIGHTS TO
SET UP THE LEFT.
(COM1) WHOA, JUST LIKE THAT, (COM2) AND A BIG ELBOW!
THREE OR FOUR GETTING THROUGH THERE, JOSH.
(COM1) THAT'S A VERY TIGHT MOUNT FROM JOHN PHILLIPS
FEET LOOKS VERY NICE AS HE LOOKS TO MOVE HIGHER.
REALLY, TAKE THE ELBOWS AWAY FROM THE BODY OF TOMAS
PENZ, AND ISOLATE THE ARMS AND MAKE THE STRIKING ALL
THAT MUCH MORE DEVASTATING.
(COM2) YOU CAN REALLY SEE THE AMBITION FROM PHILLIPS HERE
TO GET THIS FIGHT TO AN EARLY CLOSE AND ANOTHER BIG
LEFT ELBOW.
THEY'RE REALLY COMING THROUGH THE GUARD OF TOMAS PENZ.
(COM1) I LIKE HOW PHILLIPS KEEPS TRYING TO PUSH
FORWARD THROUGH THIS HIGH MOUNT AND IT MAKES IT
THAT MUCH MORE DIFFICULT FOR PENZ TO ESCAPE THE POSITION.
(COM2) NOW SEE WHAT PHILLIPS HAS GOT HERE.
(COM1) WOULDN'T IT BE SOMETHING IF JOHN
PHILLIPS COULD EARN HIS FIRST EVER SUBMISSION VICTORY
INSIDE THE CAGE?
(COM2) MOST OF THE GUYS TEND TO GIVE THEIR BACKUP
UNDER PRESSURE, (COM1) OH, HE'S GOT THE SHORT CHOKE
NOW FOR THE WELSH MAN.
(COM2) PENZ LOOKS LIKE HE WAS IN TROUBLE BUT PHILLIPS
IS READJUSTED, VERY MATURE GRAPPLING PERFORMANCE
THERE FROM PHILLIPS.
(COM1) IT'S BEEN A GREAT PACE ON THIS JOSH; I CAN'T
BELIEVE WE'RE HALFWAY THROUGH THE ROUND AT THIS STAGE.
(COM2) TOMAS PENZ DONE VERY WELL TO SURVIVE THOSE,
THOSE ATTEMPTS.
(COM1) PHILLIPS LOOKING FOR AN ARM GUILLOTINE FOR
A SECOND, NOT QUITE ABLE TO SET IT UP.
(COM2) PENZ COMING FORWARD WITH A COUPLE OF
STRIKES HIMSELF.
(COM1) PHILLIPS HAS GOT THAT FRAME IN THAT HALF GUARD
BUT DOING A GOOD JOB STANDING UP TO TRYING TO NEGATE IT
IS PENZ (COM2) AS WE GET INTO DEEPER WATER HERE.
(COM1) OH, WAS THAT A HEAD BUT FROM PENZ FOR A SECOND.
(COM2) IT LOOKED, IT LOOKED SO.
I THINK THE REFEREE HAS SPOTTED SOMETHING.
(COM1) OH TRIANGLE ATTEMPT FROM JOHN PHILLIPS.
HE'S GOT IT LOCKED IN.
HE JUST NEEDS THE ANGLE HERE.
(COM2) REALLY GOOD TECHNICAL (COM1) HOLDING THE HEAD AND
HE HITS AND HE'S GOT THE SUBMISSION.
(COM2) JOHN PHILLIPS GETS HIS VERY FIRST SUBMISSION HERE
AT CAGE WARRIORS VERY NICELY DONE INDEED.
[MUSIC]
[COMMERCIALS]
(VOICEOVER) MMA INSIDE THE CAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
(CASEY) WELL YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN A REALLY GREAT EPISODE.
YOU KNOW PRETTY MUCH CENTERED AROUND THE MEGA EVENT THAT
WAS UFC 146.
NOW YOU KNOW IT'S USUALLY TIME FOR MY CURTAIN CALL BUT
MAN YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING YOUR OWN SO WELL.
I THINK I'M GOING TO HAND IT OFF TO YOU AND LET YOU
HANDLE THIS THING.
(NATE) WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YOU KNOW I THINK THERE'S AN UNDERLYING KIND OF STORY
GOING ON AT THIS LAST UFC, A COUPLE OF GUYS.
NUMBER ONE, JAMIE VARNER A GUY I FOUGHT, A TOUGH GUY BUT
FOR A WHILE HE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH HIS CAREER.
HE WAS ON A THREE FIGHT LOSING STREAK DIDN'T KNOW IF HE
WAS GOING TO COME BACK, LOST A FIGHT, THOUGHT HE WAS GOING
TO RETIRE, STUCK WITH IT, STAYED THE COURSE AND
CAME BACK TO HAVE AN IMPRESSIVE KNOCK OUT OVER
AN UNDEFEATED GUY.
ONCE AGAIN, DAN HARDY FOUR UP, FOUR DOWN, WHEN YOU'RE
FOUR DOWN YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN REALLY MAKE
IT BACK BUT HE STUCK WITH IT, KEPT TRAINING HARD AND
ONCE AGAIN HE CAME BACK AND GOT ON TOP AND IT'S JUST
LIKE THOSE THINGS HAVE NEVER, EVER, EVEN HAPPENED AND SO
I WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE GUYS.
IT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU NO MATTER WHAT YOU'RE DOING,
NO MATTER WHAT YOU'RE INTO, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE DOWN TIME.
BUT IF YOU KEEP WITH IT A LOT OF TIMES YOU CAN PICK IT
RIGHT BACK UP.
(CASEY) WOW, WELL THERE IT IS LADIES LOVE NATE JOLLY.
YOU KNOW STAY TUNED NEXT WEEK AS WE COME BACK WITH
MORE ACTION.
BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S CASEY OXENDINE, (NATE) LADIES
LOVE NATE JOLLY (CASEY) AND THIS HAS BEEN MMA INSIDE
THE CAGE.
