- Oh, by the way, by the way, Rosie, before you go.
What did you think of the Tyson-Jones fight?
- [Rosie] Oh my God. Darling, can we talk?
I mean, first of all, I mean, I love Wiz Khalifa.
I really do. - Yeah.
- We Dem Boyz, that's my song.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't want it at a boxing match though.
I just want straight fight and you know?
That was a little irritating, let's just be honest. Right?
And I know a lot of fight fans too
were a little irritated by it
because the fight family, real devoted fight fans-
- Yeah. Yeah. - ... It's universal.
You know, they all don't like just rap.
You know what I mean?
- Right, right, right, right.
- The two undercards were great.
That one... The co main event was a tragedy, you know?
Against Nate Robinson
against Paul. - Jake Paul. Yeah.
- Jake Paul. That was stupid.
That was dangerous and stupid.
You know, boxing is the hype business,
man you don't do that. You don't do anything like that.
- I think, I think. Yeah. But I think...
I think he thought because he's like an NBA,
cause you're certain level of fitness when you're like,
when you're an athlete.
And then I think he just thought that,
"Yeah, like, I can fight and I can punch this kid."
But Jake like trained.
And Jake is not even at the level now,
like I say this respectfully,
it's not like he's a good boxer yet,
but he at least trained.
It doesn't seem like Nate trained.
Like he just walked into that punch, like this,
hands, I was like, what are you doing?
- Let me tell you what help him with him, with Nate.
You know, you're toughest opponent
when you walk into the ring is yourself, right?
- Yes.
- Because the fear is just trapping you.
And you know this as a standup comedian, right?
You know this as a performer.
When you go out on the stage,
no matter how many times you do it,
the butterflies hit.
- Right.
- And you learn how to manage that feeling.
- Right.
- You learn how to push through that fear
and step into your greatness.
He couldn't push through that fear.
He tried to charge through it.
He panicked and he just kept charging.
- Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
- You know? You have to stay calm
and composed as a good professional fighter.
And it takes years to become that. Years.
And that's why I said it was reckless and dangerous.
Now, about the two uncles at the barbecue fight.
Loved it.
I loved it.
And you know, if Tyson didn't get high before the fight,
I think he really could have did some serious damage.
You know? I know he said he got high during
his other fights. - Right.
- You know what? Dude, you're over 50 now,
there's a difference.
You know what I'm saying?
This is a woman talking with arthritis all
throughout her body right now.
So, it's like... But he was putting a serious
hurt on Roy Jones.
Roy Jones is an elite fighter.
I don't wanna take nothing away from him,
'cause he was very, very smart to hold and clinch.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. He clinched that whole fight.
- The whole fight.
But, Tyson won that fight, man.
He won that fight. - He really did.
Can I tell you the difference between the two of them was
like, I was like kudos to Roy for coming out.
'Cause it was great to see, for us, for the nostalgia.
Like, if you've loved fight.
I mean, I was watching since I was literally...
I'll never forget the fight where he
knocked the guy out before the people could get
into the... Like, just into the stadium, you know?
Like that was... I've watched Tyson my whole life.
So, for me it was like reliving my childhood.
But like, Tyson came for a fight.
Roy came for an exhibition
and you could see the difference in the two.
But, I don't know what your favorite...
I'd love to know what yours is.
My favorite moment was when the bell rang
and then Tyson hit Roy and I was like,
"Oh, no, Tyson's go-."
And then he hugged him afterwards.
And it was such a beautiful, like...
Like you could just see Mike's growth in life as a...
Like, in that moment for me, it was my...
It was easily my favorite.
I don't know what yours was.
- My favorite was when Snoop Dog just went off the charts.
He was a hot mess that night. You know?
And it was hilarious.
You know what I mean?
I mean a lot of cursing, using the F bombs,
using the N word, I could've done without.
But man, he had me rolling. - It was funny.
- I couldn't stop laughing.
He was so, so funny. You know? - Yeah.
- But you know what? That's...you know,
it's supposed to be a gentleman's sport.
It's supposed to be like that.
And you're right. You're right.
He has grown. You know? And it is a beautiful thing.
But, for me it was that line,
"It's like my two uncles fighting at the barbecue."
- Right, right. - Come on.
- It was so perfect.
Before I let you go.
I know I've taken so much of your time.
Do you think... do you wanna see the Anthony,
the Joshua-Deontay Wilder fight?
'Cause now they both have the one loss
which sort of evens it out.
'Cause I wanted to see that fight desperately.
I mean, even before, like everything that happened.
I don't know what you think.
- I definitely wanna see that fight.
- Yeah.
- I really do, I really do.
- Do you have your money on anyone?
Like who do you think would take it?
- I think if it turns into a boxing match,
Anthony Joshua will take it.
- Of course.
- He will break him down slowly.
- Right.
- And he learned from getting dropped by Andy Ruiz,
not to take this for granted.
- Yeah.
- So, but you know, Deontay Wilder does have that one punch.
- He does man. That's, yeah.
- (murmurs) In there, you know
because of Anthony Ruiz could, I mean, you know?
- If Andy Ruiz.
- If Andy Ruiz could sneak that knockout.
- Yeah.
- You know? And he dropped him.
He didn't knock him out, but he dropped him.
That means that Deontay Wilder has a chance at that.
But you know what?
Tyson Fury exposed Deontay Wilder.
Now, boxers know that I say
this criticism with love. You know?
- Right.
- But he exposed him because Tyson Fury was underrated
for a very, very long time.
- Definitely.
- But that man does know how to box.
And he has a street grit to him
and he has a meanness to him. You know?
And he overcame all of his issues. You know?
He still has mental illness- - Right.
- ... But he went and got help.
And when you get help with your mental illness,
it makes you a better performer.
It makes you a better fighter,
because you learn how to manage all of that.
- Right. - You know what I'm saying?
Like, how Nate Robinson didn't have that (murmurs).
Yo, do you know what my sister called me?
My sister, she calls me, she goes, "He still has a career."
I said, "Oh, yeah?"
She goes, "Yeah. In the mattress business."
- Oh man.
- That's what I say.
- All right, Rosie. I can could take all your time.
- You're right, thank you.
- Thank you so much again for joining me,
I appreciate you.
- Bye. - Bye.
