A lot of clowns want to run there mouth about you bear. You put these fighters in positions to greater their likeness. Don’t listen to dumb fake listeneds
@10vanaqv many episodes he is clearly indifferent to the guest(I didnt say dislike), versus this one where he is clearly interested in having a conversation and excited to be there
Big John is one the greatest ambassadors of MMA. Most people don’t realize how important he was to the sport being sanctioned and creating the rules. Josh was one of the most underrated fighters of all time in my opinion. He was so good! Such a complete fighter!
@ he retired in his late 30’s, really close to 40. And yes I guess I meant to the casual fan, I’ve brought up his name lots and they have no idea who he is. lol. You seem like you know mma so you know who he is and how good he was.

I believe Big John over Tank any day. People might not like John, but the dude has a crazy good memory and if you listen to his podcast you'll see him pull off crazy facts that Podcast Dave verifies on the spot. Tank is a life long alcoholic & drug addict who has been caught in lies his entire life.
Big Johns right man Tony should open a gym or just train and coach some fighters. Obviously he doesn't want to walk away from the sport so why not. Tony's a fucking legend in mma man. I'm sure he would be a great teacher.
9:00 Josh Thompson spitting valuable insider facts that you may underestimate unless you've trained a lot. Long limbed guys are the worst to fight in both grappling and striking. All u gamblers out there take note of that when betting your money.
Loved this pod!!!@... well love them all but big john and the punk are 2 of my mma favorites!!! Although I heard allot of this before it's always great to hear again... love yall
Love you guys and the guests you have but you gotta let people finish a thought/story without bickering/arguing/making fun of eachother. I get that it's a joke for you guys to argue but it's frustrating to hear a guest or Rampage start a story and it gets derailed immediately and then forgotten about
Should have rather had them on separately, John Mcarthy is extremely underrated, has been around since the beginning of the sport, literally wrote the rules for the sport as we know it today , has been around for everything he has a wealth of stories.. Josh is alright too I guess.. but we need a Big John only podcast for sure..
This mentality of "they made way more than me in my day" needs to stop. Ufc athletes deserve the most as possible. Revenue share,these guys are risking their health far greater than any sport.
Josh Thomson has said repeatedly that he wants fighters to make as much as possible, and he hopes that the UFC athletes will get a larger percentage of the revenue eventually. Just wishing for it won’t make it happen though. It’s going to take time, especially because the fighters seemingly have no intentions of unionizing like many other sports. He’s just being realistic and saying that fighters need to be smart with their money and set themselves up for what they’re going to do after retirement. Top MMA fighters are now at least making enough that if they’re smart with their money and platform they should be able to set themselves up for retirement, which wasn’t the case for most fighters when Josh and Rampage were coming into the sport.
A lot of insight information on how the unified MMA rules came about at this moment 55:20 shut out to the Jackson pod for all these amazing podcast and content👍
@@frankp9573 what are you talking about? The ref was already stopping the fight when they threw in the towel. Mike Beltran said he never even saw the towel in an interview. That’s why it’s not recorded as a corner stoppage on Thomson’s or Diaz’s MMA record.
Never have I ever listens to big John & Josh’s podcast. But I listened with rampage Also how does 🐻 not know the difference between dom Cruz & dom reyes, LAME
1:16:00 lets not forget tim is a serial liar and horrible person and also cheated first by grabbing yoels glove which allowed him to hurt yoel with cheap illegal blows
This is the second JAXXON pod I've listened to all the way through, the first being the one with Shannon Briggs. This is a great interview. Being a big Ariel Helwani fan, I was put off Big John and Josh's pod because of what they said about him (a lot of MMA media folks rag on Ariel for clicks). But I really liked Big John's stories and Thompson has good insight. Will have to check the Weighing In pod now.
have to stop comparing the pay structure for MMA with boxing or other major sports. thats how this pod will start sounding like all the other sour grapes sounding mma pods. MMA wasnt sanctioned in every state let alone in most countries 20 years ago! josh mentioned fighters today are getting paid way more now than they were back then. why do yall think that is? i hope this POD doesnt start sounding like literally every other mma pod and start whining about the same things.
1:06:00 John & Josh fight all the time, but Bear & Rampage go to war. Josh & John usually hash it out pretty quickly and really have been a lot nicer with each other the last 6 months or so.

These way better when rampage actually likes the guest.

Early mma is a mystery to the new audience
This the first time Bear didnt say they were the most requested guest
Wait til the end
cuz these two clowns are far from it. mccarthy one of the all time worst referees in history. he was the sole definition of a narcissist referee.
@@BrutalInsights Big John "McCartney" is a total clown, I can't stand that guy. " Tank Abbott".
1:38:25
lol
🤣
I'm literally blown away at how Big John remembers fights so vividly dude so much respect to him and Rampage is looking like a fighter again!
Its easier when you're not the one getting the memory erased.
don’t take anything that comes out of big john mouth for gospel. the man doesn’t let the truth get ahead of a good story
Interview Josh Rosenthal (UFC Referee) , he had a major pot bust and arrested a decade ago, Dana White was shocked by it. Would love to hear his story
Always wondered what happened to him
Great recommendation! I hope this happens!
We need tj and Cody on the pod!!! I will do this every week now lol
Facts. We got bisping and Luke together. And rampage and Evans together. It’s only right

yeah big john chats bullshit . 95% of the things he’s said have never happened
Love Big John
@afrikaunite3041 so what? they're good stories
Bruh that introduction. Poor Josh lmao

After banger after banger after banger after banger
I really appreciate when worlds collide. The Weighing in Crew with the Jaxxon crew
Rampage looks super prepared for the reshad fight! he looks like early 2000s rampage right now
Getting robbed at thong point 😂😂 fkk that's going in the vault
Josh and John keep it real af its refreshing
Josh and Rampage have good chemistry.
Did you guys know big John was there when they made the 12-6 rule? People forget man
People forget man, 12-6 elbows were a marauder
Jon Jones brought that on himself... He shouldn't have committed the 12-6 elbow. It was all on him ......People forget man
True and not a lot know Big John one of those ppl who put together the MMA rules
That rule sucked, he deserves no recognition for helping put in place a terrible rule.
@@Doezha92he didn’t dummy he was the one that was against it
You guys really get the BEST guests. Love Bisping and now Big John, loving all the legends you guys get.
Dana and Lorenzo sent private detectives to look for Rampage's watch that got stolen by a stripper? lol They're so real for that.
Brock Lesnar needs to be on here. Now that would be a unicorn.
You'll probably never see Brock again after the allegations involving Vince McMahon.

Best two MMA podcasts together 😊
1:01:50 Paul and Tank did a podcast together talking about the situation
”The White’s of your fingers” and Rampage 😂😂😂
54:39 😂😂😂 love the fistbump after!
I’ve met big John a few times. He was always very cool and answered any questions I had about Reffing. Same with Dan Mirgliotta.
26:04 Rampage to Josh "You love grappling, but for some reason, you like starting off in Nth/Sth position..." 😅👌👏
Classic Rampage joke 😂
@Viking4real pure master-class blaming it on big John.
Y'all are Awesome, thanks for the great shows!!
Big John's memory is freaking amazing. This guy will tell you what he had for breakfast on January 4th, 1997 and exactly what time it was.
Josh Thompson is the golden retriever of mma. Has zero thought behind his takes and is just happy to be here
Goddamit lmao
Focus on yourself brother ✌️
‘Just invest a grand in Amazon, you’ll be rich’
Josh Thompson, financial genius😂
But yeh, he’s a nice guy I like him
💀🤣🤣🤣
His name isn’t Thompson tho

Let’s gooo! Now put ur damn clothing on the same site as ur “jewelry”.
Im a casual i didn't know Josh stopped Nate Diaz 😂
Almost half the fighters Nate fought, he lost, he was a cool journey man fighter
He didn't quit and wasn't knocked out. His team threw in the towel.
He was pretty good but injuries held him back. Not that he would’ve been a HOF but he’d be remembered a lot more 🤙🏻

It up! And I love that you’re not scared of Rampage and dish it out on him. 🤣🤣🤣

Better shape rampage gets into the better his overall energy is.
Man rampage looking in the best shape I have seen him in in a minute! Keep it going champ! 💪
Tony Ferguson was in perfect form when he fought Josh Thompson that’s how Tony should always be remembered as.
Whoa word on the street is these two are the most requested guests on the podcast
Josh Thomson is super smart and articulate.
