Video Transcript
And this, this feels like a tough matchup for Neil Magie man.
He's coming off a knockout loss in the first round to Michael Morales who, yeah, he might be a little thicker than Carlos Prote, but he's kind of built in the same way, man.
Like 6 ft, 78 to 80 inch reach dangerous young guy.
Knockout power.
Like it's just like, it's, it's, it's a tough match up man and Neil Magie is not one to shy away from anyone.
I was going through his resume before this and I'm just like, even when he loses, dude, it's like Shaco Gilbert Burns like he is losing to Ian Gary like he is losing to really good guys.
These are the only fights that Neil Magie fights at this point.
He only fights these top guys, these young hungry guys or the top of the cream of the crop.
He's one of the gamer like the most game fighters that, that exist.
Carlos Paz minus 750 makes sense to go even further than that.
Carlos Pros by knockout minus 350.
That's like a, that's like a Frank Zingano number on the knockout.
That part.
Yeah, I guess, I guess if he's gonna win, he's gonna knock him out, right?
Like we assume he just, he, he, uh his last fight was finishing the Leach, what was his last fight?
Who also is like a durable iron chin, kind of dude.
I think of Magie as durable.
I know he's been finished before, but sometimes it tends to be like submissions and it's not like usually the one hitter quitter, but protest feels like he, he's one of these guys who is gonna make a name for himself doing that.
The patience that he showed in that, in that Lee fight too was he had him rock several times and kind of just waited for the right moment.
Sniper on him.
Uh He's super fun to watch.
He's very exciting, this whole fighting nerds team, his man, they're so good, man.
They're so good.
They're so aggressive.
They're so hungry and like they got this swagger about him and I love the, you throw the glasses on like instantaneous marketing.
It's sick, man.
It's sick.
So like, I, I can't help but cheer for them.
Like it's, it's always cool when you kind of have like a, not a gimmick but like you see this team kind of rising like this and watching them have this success is awesome and not only that, but they're exciting fighters too.
It's not just like they're having success, but they're grinding like they all come to go to war and it's, it's, it's wild right now.
They're actually all exciting and they all have personality that Silva barking at the cameras.
Carlos Pro is outside ripping heaters.
Kyle Baal is always willing to cut a promo.
Like he's just like I am the son of God Kyle Baha.
Like is Matty Ice also, uh uh from that team.
Did I make that up there?
Is Rio Huffy is also on it.
Another great one.
I'm pretty sure there's a female fighter.
Maybe it's not Natalia Silva, it's somebody, if Natalia Silva is on there, I don't think she is, somebody else is part of that fight Nerds team, but they have a pretty cool logo.
I have to say everything about it.
I'm loving what they're doing.
