LytesOut: "John Peretti" Extreme Fighting Battlecade

He was also featured prominently in the Carlos Newton episode.

Again, not a complaint. Peretti is a fantastic guest.

4th time he has been on I believe

2 with Igor
1 with newton
1 solo

I have photographic memory

I felt like he was in an early early episode but I think he was just talked about heavily

True

most of the episodes ^

Johns a character haha. Goes after Joey unprovoked.

Another phenomenal episode from John and Igor.

I really appreciate you guys developing a rapport with John, because he’s exterior is so polarizing most people never get him to open up the way you guys have.

There’s a good Perretti quote there I’m stealing to tell my students.

“He’s (Bart Vale)a big guy. And big guys often accept mediocrity”

The most concise way I’ve ever heard anyone articulate that idea.

Good to capture that thought. It stood out.

shit, i missed the part about bart vale, and i asked for his opinion on bart…
ok went back and found it. thanks, mike

ps hume was once on youtube commenting on his fight with ken shamrock and said it was a work
in kens book he said the fights were real but the handfull of really good fighters would carry the other fighters to make it competetive
i can recall perretti saying back on eddie goldmans show around 2000, that he would announce a potential matchup, and pride would sign those same 2 fighters to fight for more money

About to have to jump on a conference call.

It is with a company I have raised a lot of issues with or had issues with, generally let the tech nerds fight this stuff out.

Trying to decide if want to be John P like, or Sergio, or maybe Igor.

Ok EFF it they may get some John P lines thrown at them today, but more than anything if it gets bad I may adopt the same level of disgust and mix in a “they won’t debate me”

More likely just a " I don’t understand the question"

If any of you guys ever want to jump on a post interview wrap up

The door is open

I tried to get HKP to do it in a wrestling mask… he said no

Did he? I’ve only heard both he and Barnett say it was not a work.

I’d love to hear it though if he did.

My take on that rewatching recently changed my opinion on that matches legitimacy

That would be awesome. He doesn’t do many long form interviews, but that dude has stories from every era

@Captain_Kaboom

its possible it was an imposter
but he pretty clearly let ken suplex him at 1 point…
