Listening now. I was not prepared for the grey dreads. He looks wise lol and has a lot of miles and life experience for still being only 47 years old. I was going to guess mid 50s by now but he started so young. Such a unique pioneer and Legend this should be good.

Carlos ā€œThe Fighting Figā€ Newton. He was probably my favorite fighter of his era along with Bustamante. Both got screwed over by the UFC in a number of ways. I always wanted to see Newton rematch Henderson in Pride. No idea how it would have turned out but that was a fight that deserved a rematch.

The only reason for me to go to Ontario would be to train with the legend at his gym.

6 buses with 6 guys each LoL

Sounds like crazy talk, but he is one guy I could actually see just tearing a group of guys a new one with finishing move after finishing move. Highly trained with elite speed, explosion, and strength is a rare rare combo.

No doubt.

Bocek in particular I remember sitting down watching MMA connected with Showdown Joe Ferraro and I was stunned when he made the news that Bocek retired.

He was only 30 or so?

Guy fought RDA, Bendo, Frankie Edgar etc.

His UFC run was great. Hopefully Carlos hooked you up with their contacts and we see them sooner then laterā€¦or John Alessio or Joe Doerkson lol :laughing:

Kinda gotta pry Carlos a bit for info on his fights lol. He didnā€™t delve into the Menne fight at all. That was a big tournament that Dave ultimately won would have been cool to hear more about that experience.

Otherwise this was a great interview.

Carlos still has so much fight in him but heā€™s directed it towards the MMAFA now.

Newton is one of my faves!

Newton x Pele has all elements of what makes MMA great.

Have you listened yet? His story on getting stabbed sounded like enough action to make road house a boring ass flick.

And he still flew to Japan to be at the card he missed. To show the promoters and his opponent like hey see guys, I was stabbed Iā€™m not bailing out / ducking.

The Ronin.

Need part 2
