   (drumbeats) Joe Rogan podcast,…

   1. JRJoe Rogan0:00

      (drumbeats) Joe Rogan podcast, check it out. The Joe Rogan Experience. Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music plays) It's dope, right?

   2. JPJulianna Peña0:14

      Yeah, it's pretty cool.

   3. JRJoe Rogan0:15

      It's ... I don't think that's technically an NFT. It's like a digital representation of the NFT. He gave me an NFT too, but you have to put that in, like, an NFT wallet, which ...

   4. JPJulianna Peña0:26

      I don't know.

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:26

      Yep.

   6. JPJulianna Peña0:27

      Just roll with that, yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:28

      Well, what does that mean? (door closes) Like, what is an NFT wallet? What is that-

   8. JPJulianna Peña0:31

      That's how you store it.

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:32

      Exactly, but what does that mean? (clears throat)

   10. JPJulianna Peña0:34

       I was right there with you when you were talking about, like, you have no idea what this stuff is, and it's really complicated and everything.

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:40

       It's w- it's weird that they're so valuable. That's what's weird.

   12. JPJulianna Peña0:43

       Well, and ... But I'm actually gonna, like, try to start one.

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:46

       You should.

   14. JPJulianna Peña0:47

       (laughs) Yeah.

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:47

       It seems like a scam-

   16. JPJulianna Peña0:49

       Yeah.

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:50

       ... that, like, people are willingly participating in, so, like, okay. But this guy, Beeple, like, he's an amazing artist. He does art every day. He puts a new piece of digital art out every day, and he's done it for 12 years.

   18. JPJulianna Peña1:02

       I saw it, yeah.

   19. JRJoe Rogan1:03

       And he's got a gallery that they're building of all these, these kind of things, like this Elon thing, of these j- giant digital artwork pieces-

   20. JPJulianna Peña1:12

       Yeah.

   21. JRJoe Rogan1:12

       ... where y- it's ... So that's, like, he's a different thing. Some people are just making NFTs of, like, a- an image of them, like, at the park or something like that, like-

   22. JPJulianna Peña1:21

       I, I'm trying to figure out, like, what I can give to, like, the super fans, right?

   23. JRJoe Rogan1:25

       Mm-hmm.

   24. JPJulianna Peña1:25

       So, like, I'm like, "Do they want, like, an old, like, fight bra or something?"

   25. JRJoe Rogan1:29

       (laughs)

   26. JPJulianna Peña1:29

       Like, do they, do they want, like, tickets to the fight? Like, what do these guys want? Like, what do you mean, you know?

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:34

       They definitely want a fight bra.

   28. JPJulianna Peña1:35

       Yeah.

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:35

       Yeah.

   30. JPJulianna Peña1:36

       So I think I was gonna, like-
2. 15:00 – 30:00

   Mm-hmm. …

   1. JPJulianna Peña15:00

      because I feel like, at the end of the day, those are all excuses.

   2. JRJoe Rogan15:03

      Mm-hmm.

   3. JPJulianna Peña15:03

      And you gotta be able to perform, and that's the bottom line.

   4. JRJoe Rogan15:06

      Yeah. And as a professional, especially now as a professional and a world champion, like, you're in this st- like, you really have to, like, make sure everything is aligned properly: your mind, your rest, your recovery, the whole deal.

   5. JPJulianna Peña15:19

      Yeah.

   6. JRJoe Rogan15:20

      What is next? Do you think a rematch is next?

   7. JPJulianna Peña15:22

      Absolutely.

   8. JRJoe Rogan15:23

      Yeah?

   9. JPJulianna Peña15:23

      There's still naysayers out there.

   10. JRJoe Rogan15:24

       (laughs)

   11. JPJulianna Peña15:24

       There's still people that think it was a fluke.

   12. JRJoe Rogan15:26

       But I get you.

   13. JPJulianna Peña15:26

       There's still people that are harassing me.

   14. JRJoe Rogan15:29

       But you're still angry.

   15. JPJulianna Peña15:29

       There's still people that are, like, being like, "She's gonna kill you." You know, they, they were like, "Ten seconds and you're dead," you know. And so, I- I- I just- I would love nothing more than to, to put the naysayers to bed f- for one last time.

   16. JRJoe Rogan15:41

       Oh, yeah.

   17. JPJulianna Peña15:42

       Yeah.

   18. JRJoe Rogan15:42

       Now, have you guys started discussing when and if that can happen?

   19. JPJulianna Peña15:47

       Yes. Um, and, you know, in my mind, in a perfect world-

   20. JRJoe Rogan15:50

       July 4th.

   21. JPJulianna Peña15:51

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan15:51

       July 4th, we're getting it.

   23. JPJulianna Peña15:52

       Right?

   24. JRJoe Rogan15:52

       Yes.

   25. JPJulianna Peña15:53

       Yes.

   26. JRJoe Rogan15:53

       Yes.

   27. JPJulianna Peña15:53

       Let's do it. Yes.

   28. JRJoe Rogan15:54

       Yes.

   29. JPJulianna Peña15:55

       I'm t- I totally would love to fight in Vegas.

   30. JRJoe Rogan15:56

       It's the biggest card.
3. 30:00 – 45:00

   No, Spokane. …

   1. JRJoe Rogan30:00

      three weeks ago. Okay, so that's what I was referring to. Um, so you were in Tacoma, right? That's where you're out of?

   2. JPJulianna Peña30:05

      No, Spokane.

   3. JRJoe Rogan30:06

      Spokane, that's right.

   4. JPJulianna Peña30:06

      Spokane, Washington. Yeah.

   5. JRJoe Rogan30:08

      Spokane is, uh... That's, like, towards the middle.

   6. JPJulianna Peña30:10

      So, uh, so there's a mountain range that separates the state of Washington. Seattle's on the coast and the ocean, and then Spokane's on the exact opposite side.

   7. JRJoe Rogan30:18

      Spokane's better weather, right?

   8. JPJulianna Peña30:20

      Yeah, yeah, because of that mountain range.

   9. JRJoe Rogan30:22

      Because it doesn't rain-

   10. JPJulianna Peña30:22

       Yeah, it rains-

   11. JRJoe Rogan30:22

       ... all the time.

   12. JPJulianna Peña30:22

       ... all the time in Seattle, and then it's, like, a really dry heat over in Spokane.

   13. JRJoe Rogan30:26

       That's better. I'll take that. That-

   14. JPJulianna Peña30:27

       Yeah.

   15. JRJoe Rogan30:27

       ... rain's for the birds.

   16. JPJulianna Peña30:28

       Yeah, no. (laughs)

   17. JRJoe Rogan30:29

       Fuck that.

   18. JPJulianna Peña30:29

       It's depressing.

   19. JRJoe Rogan30:30

       It's so depressing.

   20. JPJulianna Peña30:30

       They need the psilocybin over there-

   21. JRJoe Rogan30:32

       (laughs)

   22. JPJulianna Peña30:32

       ... because they're so depressed because it rains all the time.

   23. JRJoe Rogan30:34

       Yeah, I remember when I was there. We... The... One of my escape-from-LA trips was, uh, Seattle, before the shit hit the fan with COVID.

   24. JPJulianna Peña30:41

       Right.

   25. JRJoe Rogan30:41

       I was thinking of taking my family and moving to Seattle.

   26. JPJulianna Peña30:44

       Yeah.

   27. JRJoe Rogan30:44

       And we looked around there, but I... (laughs) I had a buddy of mine who was a coach at 10th Planet in Portland, and we, we looked at Portland too, and he had moved up there-

   28. JPJulianna Peña30:53

       Yeah.

   29. JRJoe Rogan30:53

       ... from LA. And I go, "You don't miss California at all?" He goes, "No, dude, man, it's fucking amazing up here."

   30. JPJulianna Peña30:57

       Yeah.
4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

   There was so many…

   1. JPJulianna Peña45:00

   2. JRJoe Rogan45:00

      There was so many excuses, and it was the way that Israel beat him.

   3. JPJulianna Peña45:04

      Right.

   4. JRJoe Rogan45:04

      I mean, Izzy just lit him up like a Christmas tree.

   5. JPJulianna Peña45:07

      Right.

   6. JRJoe Rogan45:07

      And that was not a competitive fight-

   7. JPJulianna Peña45:09

      Hmm.

   8. JRJoe Rogan45:09

      ... by any stretch of the imagination.

   9. JPJulianna Peña45:10

      No.

   10. JRJoe Rogan45:11

       And I think when you're a guy who steamrolls everybody and walks down Yoel Romero-

   11. JPJulianna Peña45:15

       Yeah.

   12. JRJoe Rogan45:15

       ... and you look like a just destroyer.

   13. JPJulianna Peña45:17

       Right.

   14. JRJoe Rogan45:17

       And then this skinny dude just lights you up-

   15. JPJulianna Peña45:20

       Right.

   16. JRJoe Rogan45:20

       ... and fucks you up, and then dry humps you from behind when he's beating you up.

   17. JPJulianna Peña45:25

       (laughs) Not a good look. Yeah.

   18. JRJoe Rogan45:27

       And then Marvin Vettori beat him up too.

   19. JPJulianna Peña45:29

       Yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan45:29

       That was a good fight though. That was, that was a close fight, but M- Marvin Vettori's a fucking bull, that guy.

   21. JPJulianna Peña45:34

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan45:35

       There's another one. How the fuck is that guy 185 pounds? I stand next to him, like, "How are you... You're a heavyweight."

   23. JPJulianna Peña45:40

       Yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan45:40

       Like, how the fuck are you 185 pounds?

   25. JPJulianna Peña45:41

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan45:42

       They're so big.

   27. JPJulianna Peña45:43

       Yeah. I- I just know that I heard anyhow from one of my friends who is signed with the PFL that she was gonna stay with the PFL. And then I think yesterday-

   28. JRJoe Rogan45:50

       Interesting.

   29. JPJulianna Peña45:50

       ... they said that they signed a new deal and that, I believe that she's staying with the PFL.

   30. JRJoe Rogan45:56

       She should, if she makes good money. I mean-
5. 1:00:00 – 1:02:48

   He's still... never got…

   1. JPJulianna Peña1:00:00

      still doing it.

   2. JRJoe Rogan1:00:00

      He's still... never got fat-

   3. JPJulianna Peña1:00:02

      Yeah.

   4. JRJoe Rogan1:00:02

      ... always fit. You know, Floyd would go to a nightclub and then leave the nightclub and, uh, have his drivers drive the car home and he would run behind the car.

   5. JPJulianna Peña1:00:11

      That's awesome.

   6. JRJoe Rogan1:00:11

      Run miles, and in his fucking jeans and sneakers and shit.

   7. JPJulianna Peña1:00:14

      T- that's one guy-

   8. JRJoe Rogan1:00:15

      Yeah.

   9. JPJulianna Peña1:00:15

      ... I would just die to meet. I would love to meet him.

   10. JRJoe Rogan1:00:17

       His motivation apparently... I mean, obviously he loves money.

   11. JPJulianna Peña1:00:20

       Yeah.

   12. JRJoe Rogan1:00:20

       And his motivation is most certainly money, but having that money-

   13. JPJulianna Peña1:00:22

       I think that's why I love him-

   14. JRJoe Rogan1:00:23

       Yeah.

   15. JPJulianna Peña1:00:23

       ... is because he loves money so much. Like-

   16. JRJoe Rogan1:00:25

       (laughs) Money Mayweather.

   17. JPJulianna Peña1:00:26

       And he does, and he does it good, you know what I mean?

   18. JRJoe Rogan1:00:28

       Oh, yeah.

   19. JPJulianna Peña1:00:28

       He's styling and profiling.

   20. JRJoe Rogan1:00:30

       Yeah.

   21. JPJulianna Peña1:00:30

       Yeah.

   22. JRJoe Rogan1:00:31

       But he's always involved in like these strange thing... Like he's in Dubai all the time, like involved in these weird NFT deals and stuff.

   23. JPJulianna Peña1:00:37

       (laughs)

   24. JRJoe Rogan1:00:37

       Like-

   25. JPJulianna Peña1:00:37

       Yeah.

   26. JRJoe Rogan1:00:38

       ... he's a fascinating character because he literally never lost his motivation.

   27. JPJulianna Peña1:00:42

       Yeah.

   28. JRJoe Rogan1:00:42

       Even though he was worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

   29. JPJulianna Peña1:00:45

       Yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan1:00:45

       He still... And he's just been so brilliant in taking these fights-
