I feel like I deserve a big Victory and that's exactly what I'm going to get. a big win uh yesterday John said it's okay, it's okay, it's okay Cyril yesterday John said that above all else, he knows he won't lose to you because Francis Nagano outplayed you and he just can't see himself losing to someone who I left work by Francis Naganu, how do you respond to that? Yes, I made a lot of mistakes again. Francis uh uh in the wrestling game because I expected more from him hitting him so I didn't focus on a western game so he surprised me he did very well and you see he's a very strong guy so yeah I committed one mistake, tomorrow it will be Jon Jones again.

Everyone knows the level of Jon Jones' running game, but I'm focused on that. I'm focused on that so we work on it and we'll be ready for him and just one last one for you Cyril, obviously a win on Saturday for your heavyweight champion, which is incredible, but you'd also be making history if you were the one. first man to achieve it. beating Jon Jones, what would that mean to you to make history by beating Jon Jones? It's Luke like a belt. This looks like a belt. For years, everyone has known that he is not a Christian and that is why I respect this guy.

I respect your career, but tomorrow it's gone. be two men Two fighters I'm a good fighter you know him everyone knows it and we're going to have a big fight but we're going to get a guy like that yeah it means a lot to me and have a bet too Cyril just said Francis is very strong and he was surprised that I underestimated how strong you are. Yes Yes. It's interesting to hear Cereals say it was a strength problem. I spent a lot of time in the weight room. um, you know, I feel like not only am I a very strong athlete right now, but I have a lot of technique, uh, it's more than just strength, so it makes me feel even better that he thinks it was strength that he got. him to the ground um, I come with a lot of strength, a lot of endurance and, most importantly, a pretty strong technique, okay, go ahead, who has the next question?
If I show ahead, friend question for John John, why do you think Cyril is the best? incomplete fighter in the top five in heavy, you know, I respect the surreal again, I really do, and I say this with humility, but you know, I study film constantly and I see a lot of patterns, you know, when it's in a position, there are things that really love. to do, he goes to the same pit alive when he's in the opposite position, he has his tendencies and other than that, you know, I notice that he doesn't really have much wrestling, he relies on evasion trying to escape, he relies on Jiu Jitsu instead of a solid takedown defense and the same with the running game.
You know, I saw Francis Nagano be able to accumulate. I think maybe five six minutes of overtime in that fight and Francis is not a guy known for controlling people. at the top, so he has the punch down. I don't think defensively he's a very strong kickboxer. He has a really good offense. As I said, his defense relies mainly on his footwork and two other big holes are. Jiu Jitsu and wrestling and many fans are wondering what song you will sing on Saturday night. I'm thinking a little bit about Champions, here I am, I'm a traditional guy, yes, the Champions. that's how I feel, yes sir, last question for Cyril Cyril a lot of people are wondering online about his hand injury, how is his hand going in this fight? she's healthy, very healthy, I don't have any problems, no feeling right after the injury, uh, from the injury to uh to uh to today nothing nothing everything is perfect for Jon Jones John you've dealt with so many different styles, so many different fighters , what do you see in surrealist that in its attributes make it a definitive foreign challenge?
I would do it. Let's just say his footwork is weird for a heavyweight, it's not something he usually sustains for an entire fight, the first round, the second, maybe even the third round, depending on how things go. He moves a lot more than the average heavyweight, um. but I've seen through footage that usually in the championship rounds a lot of those bounces go away and then another thing that makes them really different is that a lot of heavyweights rely on proper defense to block punches and kicks or us. I've noticed a serial gain, he just likes to back off very quickly, um, but that's his gift, his ability to move his feet, uh, outside of that.
I feel like everything about his skill set is stuff I've seen before. surrealist recognizing John. Like the goat, do you feel like what you did at your camp? How to be restructured to fight the goats? Yes, Sam, I'm very happy to have taken this opportunity. I noticed it and I like the feeling. I like the feeling. I like it. boy I like the feeling, I know we had a lot of fun behind it and I like that comeback from three years ago, that's great and I'm very aware of the whole opportunity. I know who this guy is and I'll say it again another time. and we are going to make a war, there is no reason for that message.
I mean, this question is for Jon Jones, who he opened as the betting underdog. You are now the favorite at -170. Do you think it was disrespectful that you opened as the underdog no I don't think it was disrespectful uh the Surreal Games have been very active he's been very busy in the UFC. I understand that there are a lot of fans who have never seen me compete before and, uh, it is what it is, um, I imagine a lot of people were investing a lot of money when I was the underdog and the bettors had to change that very quickly, so I received a follow-up question.
I have you on my parlay. Do you have a chance of winning this Saturday? What was that? What was that? What's that? What's that? It's you? I'm you know I'm not a big fan of gambling, but I would say that gambling, I mean, it's not the worst idea. I like that good question for Jon Jones. Nowadays you live a very low-key life shooting guns, you have your dogs, you lift weights, but on Saturday night, if you win, you become the heavyweight champion of the world. You have an after party here in Hakistan, it's Las Vegas Sin City, so how is Jon?
Jones will get the win on Saturday night. I'm not going to turn on at all. Amen, you don't want to see me turned on. I'll leave it at that, yes. And finally, a question for Cyril Dios, would it be more rewarding for you? beat the greatest consensus of all time or become the world heavyweight champion. If this happens, we will have big parties on Saturday night. I have to move on. You hear surreal talk about wanting to win this fight and being considered a target it just doesn't work that way it doesn't work that way um, I'm honored, I'm honored that people consider me to be that kind of athlete, it means a lot to me and My job is just to try. be as humble as I can and keep working hard, stay focused and, uh, let people decide, know who Jordan is, who Lebron is and stuff like this, um, I'm just going to keep working hard.
Keep giving glory to God and I will continue to do the best I can, that has always worked for me. Tell me about that long jump to layoff. The wrong dismissal was using. UFC changed during that time. Yes, the organization changed a lot. It's like that. much more professional um our security staff is bigger the production team is more professional our staff members are very friendly and um it's just amazing it's amazing to be back with the fans they're more amazing than ever it's a great thing It's a great thing with which I'm still trying to catch up on.
What is happening? It's really surreal for me, if I'm honest it's amazing, you guys are beautiful and I love you all, it really is amazing.
