Incredible guest! Gerard Gordeau has had a pretty crazy life and is also known as the dirtiest fighter of all time. Looking forward to listening to this episode!
Dirtier then Dirty Bob?
Lol Those 2 might make the Finals of the Dirty Tournamentā¦ Yvel would be in the Semisā¦
Dirty Bob would also be an interesting episode and on the wish list to him get the Lytes Out treatment.
You read my mind with the Holy Trinity of Dirtiest Fighters
I have dirty Bobās phone number on WhatsApp
Remco is very close with Dirty Bob
i know another guy who deserves honorable mention
You thinking Jon Jones has done enough to warrant entry to the Dirty Tournament ā¦ oh I get it Branko for sure in there too lol
this should be a fantastic podcast. the dutch are known for blunt honesty. i canāt wait.
give it to Lytes out
no doubt
I didnāt laugh.
It pissed me off a little.
I like Rogan ā but him going all-in in the Ronda hype was ridiculous.
āOnce in everā lol
Didnāt he even get kind of choked up talking about her once?
I I wonder if he had a secret love crushā¦
Matsui vs Schrijber is a fun fight to rewatch.
Matsui is a tough dude.
Winston, itās gouging you half a moron

OUI ARE LIVE !!
Great ep!
I loved the word association with Gerard Gordeau lol
Mike: Dirty Bobā¦
Gerard: Good Sportsman
Smoking a Cig in the rules meeting in front of everyone day before the fight was great.
I would loved to have seen that Gerard vs Branko fight he spoke of and it would be funny if there were 0 fouls total in it
But one question that I wished you would have askedā¦ what was that Salute before entering the cage at UFC 1, was it savate or not lol?
