if I wasn't a fighter I'd be I would I'd probably be in the uh you know or the dope game maybe the rapping I don't know I mean if I wasn't a fighter maybe I'd have some dude with the sport but I like the first days we're gonna take the first answer Chuck [Music] then gentlemen boys and girls we'd like to welcome you outside the GGN news network I'm your host with the most fun - Nemo aka Nemo Holmes and today on my show I got one of mixed martial arts greatest fighters coming from Stockton
California close friend of mine you may know him from knocking [ __ ] out and being banned from the league for doing what we do he's here today to have some fun and talk about it give it up for my man Nick DX Nick what it do what to do slow motion how you being loved one all right so tell me what you've been doing since the last time we seen you in that octagon yeah no I just really was making the rounds trying to help out in camps when I'm you know I got guys
that I train I've trained in you know I'm training Witt they have camp so I jump in a little bit you know and help out a little bit but I've been you know giving a little seminar here and there going you know I had 500 people show up so proteins show up one day and was just kind did a little you know just doing what I can do some rather than nothing so you you like more or less like a mentor and you like sparring and you still stand in the game because the people still
love you and they still want to they want to hear what you have to say basically right yeah well I was I think I was like someone told me that the other day I was like 49 or 45 or something like that on the on the UFC roster the first you know 45 people mmm so now they got like you know six hundred or a thousand or whatever you know whatever number it is yeah but you part of that original lineup that first came out yeah yeah yeah you show people how to really get it
in because you know coming from a small town like Stockton and then you know doing your thing representing you always stayed down I'm representing taking on whoever whatever they put in the ring you got in with really won't even know weight class when you first started right yeah well no I was right when they started weight classes well they had a few weight classes and then they added a 55 division or I want to add that 55 division lightweight division and then that's when I sort of fighting and yeah because the weight was like off
like you could be like 20 pounds heavier there's somebody yeah you could be yeah you know that was it was good it was a good show back then I was like they did it kept it like that in Japan for a long time and then pride did you ever see holies Gracie fight yeah yeah that's how I got that's how I got started putting people in trial chokes oh you went to go train woody so I was I'm not really fanatical about fighting now I'm not like oh I love a fight but when I started
I was more like okay why don't you know people nobody want to watch it you know and then I'd go and I'd train I found this place where people were doing whether this guy Steve Heath he was a blue belt in jujitsu he had learned from Cesar Gracie yes where you guys blew the tops yeah our cousin so they're all cousins and family and graces so I already knew when I was looking at when I watched you know and nobody else wanted was you know a big fan UFC Fan but I you know I did
a little bit of karate and little you know a little bit of boxing so I was watching and then I started training there and I'm telling my friends but look I'm choking these big old pro right cuz everybody that was in MMA early on that all looks like pro wrestlers and it was getting it like Pro Wrestling oh yeah there was no weight classes and was you know butts are the people that were in that it was some big dudes and I was like 6:15 Chuck putting choke on him so I was okay there's submission
hold the Gracie brothers submission hosted like where people getting underestimate the little guy no more because the submission to break that big guy down or you go to submissions I was in competition my fur all the way 15 so I was like I think 22 or something I was doing high level like competition a Pan Am's although it was different though now they have the whole you know IBJJF whatever you know it's different now it's a business now yeah before it was just like you know it was rules and everything yeah using the beginning world
was basically their knuckles it was you know it was brawling did you ever go to London and get any one of those bare-knuckle fighter to have out there no not money no no everyone you asked what a [ __ ] pinnacle is that yeah right and I didn't know [ __ ] for real no no they got some [ __ ] where they got a [ __ ] underground and it'd be a bunch of old [ __ ] they got this one dude he's a cold chimp when this muhfucka show up he get drunk as
a [ __ ] he beats anybody to get in the rain would I would they pick good no I don't think it's a big payday it's a lot of dead going on but I don't think the five just getting out of that car so tell me what did they suspend you for because what I was told was but you got suspended for normal athletes like in the NFL or the NBA would get like a couple of game suspension to keep continuing on with a season but they did something to you that was a little different
the thing is I I never got this I never tested positive for I never I never you know and that was the verdict in the end because then you know when you go over and you make an appeal and it's like okay so in in was all you filled out the application wrong you know and I said well you know last time I filled out the application right I was supposed to fight Eddie Alvarez way back 80 operas love to fight that Conor McGregor right now I'll specify him way back when I was fighting it
you know in light weight and in Strikeforce and I fill out the application wrong and so Armando Garcia was like the lead you know to do to the NSAC back then he pulled me from the card and he did a whole bunch of crazy stuff they got rid of his ass but uh behind some paperwork yeah yes I pull because I put you know Oh what are you doing less like you know month I was like well you know this is out of competition but you know and then so I cuz I'm like okay I'm
gonna test and then but I'm under the limit so what you know yeah well so it's all it comes to me that I'm like okay that's kind of a scam but whatever I have they lifted that and allowed you to get back yeah because sherrod Sonny yes honey sure sure so she oh they had a share from slimming yeah they made a petition to turn the suspension over so then she put a retweet or something you know oh she got by getting a little bit of put yes it is who here have you met no
my mom's always a big huge fan no I was always you know I will share what's your business man man when we was kids she was something special with that long hair man you understand me her and Sonny Bono you did share what it do I let my nephew in real life you grew up in Stockton man stocking is that considered central California or Northern California it's not as northern north no there's not a lot going on I mean there's not I mean it's not there's there's you know if you go to school I guess
and you do you know for me I'm just I'll add training I always had training on three to five fights a year 37 fives from 17 years later all I was think about was wait what am i eat I had two five six year girlfriends and you know I just stayed really still girlfriends mess you up where you absolutely know it's because of a attitude or is it because of a sex no no that you know is you anything you're dealing with you gotta just you know moderation do you think the sport has grown since
the day you liked it to the day you stopped like as it grow yeah yeah it's been it's I mean it's being multiplied I mean now you got girls you know recognizing me or you know because they watch also the [ __ ] and then won't get it well you know and then that's need is what did you know that that is Nick and then Nick vo so what's handy hey let me knock my [ __ ] out there like I never heard of you before right but then you're like have you ever heard of
what don't you ever heard Ronda Rousey I'm like that you know yeah yeah yeah yeah I'm just saying that brings up I get a lot more attention now I mean who was your favorite fighter today I don't know lady Carlos Condit Carlos Turner no no he's a nice guy though but uh let me add my brother Nate yeah and they don't stylist is our knowledge like Carlos Condit because he you know amounted to at least somewhat of the level of doing what I do I mean you know but I think he stands a little up
right this past year we lost Kimbo Slice what was your relationship ship-like with him we was all that we was always hanging out of the strike boards events or that had me taxi back in the day yeah just spoke lines for real yeah Tim was less was a bit a headline the whole show he would be me and Kimbo Slice it was me it was I mean I know it was the Kimbo Slice show but it was it was me and the Kimbo Slice show that's why because I was even a fighter that was bringing
the MMA crowd and he was the Bourbon Street crowd and they both y'all was dogs y'all was kicking yeah and we was you know in Texas and out here now I think I want her in LA before that's dope - yeah Kimbo Slice rest in peace real [ __ ] [ __ ] yeah I need this stormy France reporting to you live from the beautiful Seattle Washington Sunday through Saturday our weather is looking a little bit bipolar it's kind of like a lot of the women out here Sunday through Wednesday it's gonna be super hot

guys to do something and you know I don't know I had some character to their lifestyle maybe they need to paint their hair like people used to do yeah for real you know I was always thrown a fit about it right like somebody I'd fight somebody they had their hair painted and I was like this it's not enough that this guy asked us to win a fight against me you know he's gonna next fight but he's got to do it with his hair like being on blast like pink mohawk and he's doing my making a
scene just a wild man right yeah making a scene before the scene I felt bad though I thought this one dude who did that and they want to beat him up pretty bad and then I didn't even really I don't even think I shook his hand out to the fight and then I feel bad about that and I think I wrote him on I think I even dragged messages in one time or somebody I was like a mess forever but he didn't misses me back I got some questions I want to ask she called everyday
