1. 0:01 – 3:15

   Afro talk, grappling escapes, and women’s fight gear choices

   1. JRJoe Rogan0:01

      ... two. Good?

   2. AHAngela Hill0:06

      Yeah.

   3. JRJoe Rogan0:06

      Hello, Angela. What's going on?

   4. AHAngela Hill0:07

      Hi. What's up?

   5. JRJoe Rogan0:08

      I was amazed that you could get those headphones on. I was wondering.

   6. AHAngela Hill0:10

      (laughs) Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan0:11

      That's ... You got the best Afro in the game, for sure.

   8. AHAngela Hill0:13

      It, uh-

   9. JRJoe Rogan0:13

      Who's even close?

   10. AHAngela Hill0:14

       It, uh, condenses. Um ...

   11. JRJoe Rogan0:15

       (laughs)

   12. AHAngela Hill0:16

       I mean, Caceres got me beat, though. Alex Caceres.

   13. JRJoe Rogan0:18

       Yeah?

   14. AHAngela Hill0:18

       Yes, yeah. That's-

   15. JRJoe Rogan0:18

       He do- he gets crazy, yeah. (laughs)

   16. AHAngela Hill0:20

       That's my goal, is ... Those are my hair goals, is to get, like, a nice, big, like, fluffy 'fro like his.

   17. JRJoe Rogan0:25

       When he fights, I always wonder, like, I get... That seems like it would be harder to pull out of things, don't you think?

   18. AHAngela Hill0:32

       No, it's actually ... It's kind of like a ... You know, uh, those connecting joints where it's like, it's kinda like a big ball that goes in-

   19. JRJoe Rogan0:40

       Mm-hmm.

   20. AHAngela Hill0:40

       ... but, like, when you pull it out, it's like ... I don't know.

   21. JRJoe Rogan0:43

       It pulls out easier.

   22. AHAngela Hill0:44

       It pulls out easier, yeah.

   23. JRJoe Rogan0:45

       Oh.

   24. AHAngela Hill0:45

       It's kind of like a, like a joint like that. So, like, uh, you think you have a good grip, but then the hair just like whoosh, you know? Like, it condenses.

   25. JRJoe Rogan0:53

       Well, especially, like, if you put grease in your hair or, or hair conditioning, or anything that makes it extra slippery, right?

   26. AHAngela Hill0:58

       Yeah, I guess. But like, it's, it's pretty ... It's just the fact that it can go small even though it doesn't look like it. I feel like people think they have a better grip than they do.

   27. JRJoe Rogan1:09

       Hmm.

   28. AHAngela Hill1:09

       Like, I've ... Like my, uh, I think my title fight in Invicta, uh, the girl locked on, like, maybe three or four guillotines, and every time, I was just like whoosh.

   29. JRJoe Rogan1:19

       (laughs)

   30. AHAngela Hill1:19

       You know (laughs) like, it just, like, popped out. (laughs) And people kept going, "It's deep. It's deep." But like, I, I swear to God, my Afro gets me out of, uh, tight situations.
2. 3:15 – 4:50

   Wardrobe malfunctions, Leslie Smith toughness, and the MMA union idea

   1. AHAngela Hill3:15

      But, uh, I don't know. I always, uh, had this joke with, like, my teammates that I was gonna get famous by being, like, the nip- the nip slipper. Like (laughs) -

   2. JRJoe Rogan3:24

      (laughs)

   3. AHAngela Hill3:24

      ... I would use, like, certain, like, Muay Thai clinch techniques to just like whoop, pop the girl's boob out.

   4. JRJoe Rogan3:30

      (laughs)

   5. AHAngela Hill3:30

      So I'd always get to fight the popular girls because, like, they knew, "Oh, she's fighting Paige VanZant. We're gonna see some Paige VanZant titties," you know? (laughs)

   6. JRJoe Rogan3:38

      (laughs)

   7. AHAngela Hill3:38

      And that would just, like, you know, raise my stocks, so ... I haven't done it though, but ... (laughs)

   8. JRJoe Rogan3:43

      But you've thought about it in training?

   9. AHAngela Hill3:44

      I've thought about it.

   10. JRJoe Rogan3:45

       Only in training?

   11. AHAngela Hill3:46

       Only in train- ... I tried it on the guys in the gym. (laughs)

   12. JRJoe Rogan3:48

       (laughs)

   13. AHAngela Hill3:48

       Lift their shirt up. "Oops, sorry." (laughs)

   14. JRJoe Rogan3:50

       Has anybody ever done that on purpose in a fight-

   15. AHAngela Hill3:53

       Uh ...

   16. JRJoe Rogan3:53

       ... that you know of?

   17. AHAngela Hill3:55

       I don't know. I think the one person it backfired, uh, with was... I don't remember who she was fighting, but Leslie Smith's, uh, boob popped out once.

   18. JRJoe Rogan4:02

       Did it really?

   19. AHAngela Hill4:03

       Yeah, in a ... in one of her Invicta fights. And she did not give a fuck. Like-

   20. JRJoe Rogan4:07

       Oh, she's crazy.

   21. AHAngela Hill4:08

       Yeah, she's crazy.

   22. JRJoe Rogan4:09

       Her ear was hanging off her head in that Jessica Eyefight.

   23. AHAngela Hill4:11

       Oh my god, yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan4:12

       You could see into her head.

   25. AHAngela Hill4:14

       Yeah, yeah-

   26. JRJoe Rogan4:14

       It was cra-

   27. AHAngela Hill4:15

       ... her skull is a-

   28. JRJoe Rogan4:15

       She was like, "Don't stop the fight! Don't stop the fight!"

   29. AHAngela Hill4:17

       Yeah.

   30. JRJoe Rogan4:17

       I was like, "This girl is gangster."
3. 4:50 – 7:51

   Healthcare gray areas and the reality of training injuries

   1. JRJoe Rogan4:50

      Does that ... W- what it's ... I, I, I haven't looked into that. Like, I haven't looked at, like, what do they ... what do they want, what are they trying to accomplish, what's not correct that they wanna fix?

   2. AHAngela Hill5:01

      Um, I think, um, just any, any grievances that the fighters have in general. So, like, healthcare, um, uh, salary, uh, just things that, uh, everyone kind of agrees on is, like, not good enough yet-

   3. JRJoe Rogan5:18

      Right.

   4. AHAngela Hill5:18

      ... in the UFC. I think those are the things that they're working towards. Um-

   5. JRJoe Rogan5:22

      How does healthcare work? Are you guys covered in training, or are you only covered for fights?

   6. AHAngela Hill5:27

      Um, as far as I know, uh, if you book a fight and you get injured, I think they cover it, but I think it's also a gray area where, like, they could not cover it and they're not legally obligated to fix you.

   7. JRJoe Rogan5:41

      Hmm.

   8. AHAngela Hill5:41

      Um, but I think in the past, they have. Uh, I'm not sure. I can't think of any, uh, any examples where they haven't, like ...... um, you know, taking care of the medical expenses of, uh, someone who got hurt. But I know, like, a lot of times, fighters don't claim it in time, like, after fights or it's, like, a- a little nagging injury that becomes a big deal further down the line. Um-

   9. JRJoe Rogan6:06

      And it happened in a fight, but they waited too long?

   10. AHAngela Hill6:10

       Yeah, yeah. Either that or just, you know, just wear and tear from training in general.

   11. JRJoe Rogan6:15

       Mm-hmm.

   12. AHAngela Hill6:15

       Like, you can't, I can't go in for, like, a loose tooth or-

   13. JRJoe Rogan6:19

       Right.

   14. AHAngela Hill6:19

       ... like, a, or like, a, a shoulder that I tore in practice if I wasn't getting ready for a fight. Or-

   15. JRJoe Rogan6:24

       But that seems so crazy because you're obviously fighting in the UFC. You have a long-term contract.

   16. AHAngela Hill6:29

       Yeah.

   17. JRJoe Rogan6:29

       You've been fighting in the UFC for years. If you're training, you're training to fight in the UFC.

   18. AHAngela Hill6:33

       Yeah, exactly. And, um, I think, uh, I think a- a lot of instances, they still take care of the fighter. But I know, like, if you're, like, on the lower end, if you haven't really-

   19. JRJoe Rogan6:43

       Hmm.

   20. AHAngela Hill6:43

       ... made a name for yourself yet, um, sometimes, you know, even if you just don't ask, like, you don't get taken care of. It's not, like, it's not in your cr- contract once you sign, like, "Oh, I'm gonna fight this many fights." Uh, but there's nothing in there that says, "If I get injured after signing this contract, y- I'm covered medically." So, um-

   21. JRJoe Rogan7:06

       (sighs)

   22. AHAngela Hill7:06

       So yeah, I think that was, that was the main reason I was like, "Oh, this is a good idea," um, just because, like, I know so many fighters who book fights just to get their injuries taken care of-

   23. JRJoe Rogan7:17

       Hmm.

   24. AHAngela Hill7:17

       ... you know? Um, or they, they'll fight injured and claim an old injury.

   25. JRJoe Rogan7:23

       Mm-hmm.

   26. AHAngela Hill7:23

       And, like, and that's their way of fixing whatever-

   27. JRJoe Rogan7:27

       Yeah.

   28. AHAngela Hill7:27

       ... they broke during training, so.

   29. JRJoe Rogan7:29

       That sucks.

   30. AHAngela Hill7:30

       It's horrible. And-
4. 7:51 – 13:35

   Training as a 115-pound pro: partner size, safety, and learning from TUF

   1. AHAngela Hill7:51

      Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And most of my injuries happen outside of camp because I'm either training stupid, training with someone I, who, who I shouldn't be training with, like someone too big or too inexperienced, or, um, or I'm just, like, fucking around. Like, when I'm fighting someone who's my size, it's a lot less likely that I get injured.

   2. JRJoe Rogan8:10

      Right.

   3. AHAngela Hill8:11

      But when I'm throwing my bones, like you said, at somebody who's way bigger than ... It's easy, I can hurt my hand punching them.

   4. JRJoe Rogan8:17

      Right.

   5. AHAngela Hill8:18

      You know, break my, break my, like, or break my toe, like, kicking them, you know? And-

   6. JRJoe Rogan8:22

      But that's, for someone like you who fights at 115 pounds-

   7. AHAngela Hill8:26

      Mm-hmm.

   8. JRJoe Rogan8:26

      ... it's even more difficult, right?

   9. AHAngela Hill8:28

      Yeah.

   10. JRJoe Rogan8:28

       Because the lack of people that are your size to train with, and you're also training a lot with men.

   11. AHAngela Hill8:33

       Mm-hmm.

   12. JRJoe Rogan8:33

       And it's, uh, uh, and it's cra- it's crazy because at a professional level, like, you're, you're right there. You know, you just m- beat the shit out of Hannah Cifers. It was a crazy fight.

   13. AHAngela Hill8:42

       Thank you. (laughs)

   14. JRJoe Rogan8:44

       It was huge. But that was a big fight for you.

   15. AHAngela Hill8:46

       Yeah.

   16. JRJoe Rogan8:46

       Like, you're, you're in the heat right now.

   17. AHAngela Hill8:48

       Yeah.

   18. JRJoe Rogan8:48

       You know? I mean, you're-

   19. AHAngela Hill8:49

       Yeah, yeah.

   20. JRJoe Rogan8:49

       ... you're right there. So for you-

   21. AHAngela Hill8:52

       Yeah, I'm excited.

   22. JRJoe Rogan8:52

       ... you're, you're, you know, you're at the top of the heap in this championship realm, right? And, uh, to train with people that are bigger than you or to take chances like that, like, there's no other sport that would have that.

   23. AHAngela Hill9:05

       Yeah.

   24. JRJoe Rogan9:05

       You know?

   25. AHAngela Hill9:06

       Yeah, and it's like the lack of women as well.

   26. JRJoe Rogan9:09

       Mm-hmm.

   27. AHAngela Hill9:10

       You know? Because even if I'm training with, like, a bantamweight, uh, if it's a woman, like, it's not as dangerous as training with, like, some of the bigger guys. Like, the, like, guys and girls are kinda like different sizes. Like, if I'm, if I'm training with a guy who fights at 115, he's gonna be, like, four foot tall.

   28. JRJoe Rogan9:29

       Right, right, right.

   29. AHAngela Hill9:29

       You know? So, so it's, uh, it's like the weight distr- distribution is different.

   30. JRJoe Rogan9:34

       Mm-hmm.
5. 13:35 – 22:10

   Turning the corner: anxiety, the Randa Marcos fight, and present-moment focus

   1. JRJoe Rogan13:35

      You've, you've obviously gone through some improvements and some change. Like, what's changed with you over the last, like, four or five fights?

   2. AHAngela Hill13:43

      Um ...

   3. JRJoe Rogan13:43

      Because you've, you've ... You keep getting steadily better, but particularly the last two. I think you should be on a four-fight win streak, because there was-

   4. AHAngela Hill13:52

      Oh, stop it.

   5. JRJoe Rogan13:53

      But you, you had that one decision-

   6. AHAngela Hill13:55

      No, I did too. I did too. Yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan13:56

      ... with ... I, I don't ... I forget how to pronounce her name.

   8. AHAngela Hill13:58

      Zhou Ning Yan.

   9. JRJoe Rogan14:00

      Yeah. Is that how you say it?

   10. AHAngela Hill14:00

       It sounds like a cat.

   11. JRJoe Rogan14:02

       How do you say it?

   12. AHAngela Hill14:03

       Like nng. Zhou ... I, I don't know how to say it, but Zhou Nan-

   13. JRJoe Rogan14:06

       But y-

   14. AHAngela Hill14:06

       ... Zhou Nan Yan, I think.

   15. JRJoe Rogan14:07

       That's the lady you had in a triangle.

   16. AHAngela Hill14:08

       She's on the ... Yeah, she ... And she's on this, uh, card too.

   17. JRJoe Rogan14:12

       Oh, okay.

   18. AHAngela Hill14:12

       The Auckland card.

   19. JRJoe Rogan14:13

       Yeah. I thought that was a bad decision.

   20. AHAngela Hill14:15

       Thank you.

   21. JRJoe Rogan14:15

       But you, you had her locked up in the tri- so I get ... Sometimes when I, when I do commentary, people get mad at me.

   22. AHAngela Hill14:21

       (laughs)

   23. JRJoe Rogan14:21

       Like, either the fighters or other people. But that was one where fans of her got mad at me.

   24. AHAngela Hill14:26

       Ah.

   25. JRJoe Rogan14:26

       Because you w- you guys were right in front.

   26. AHAngela Hill14:29

       Mm-hmm.

   27. JRJoe Rogan14:29

       And you had her in a triangle, and I was yelling, "Pull the head."

   28. AHAngela Hill14:32

       Oh.

   29. JRJoe Rogan14:32

       I was yelling, "Pull her head. Pull her head."

   30. AHAngela Hill14:34

       (laughs)
6. 22:10 – 28:41

   Hypnosis, flow state, and making competition feel familiar

   1. JRJoe Rogan22:10

      Have you ever thought about going to, like, a sports psychologist?

   2. AHAngela Hill22:13

      I have, I have. Uh, like, there have, I've tried a couple people in the past, and I really just feel like everyone kinda says the same things.

   3. JRJoe Rogan22:22

      Yeah.

   4. AHAngela Hill22:23

      Uh, so I feel like if you're getting it from any resource, that's good. Like, I started using, uh, that mindfulness app.

   5. JRJoe Rogan22:31

      Oh, okay. Which one?

   6. AHAngela Hill22:32

      Uh, I forget what it's called. Um-

   7. JRJoe Rogan22:34

      Headspace?

   8. AHAngela Hill22:35

      It's the, yeah, Headspace.

   9. JRJoe Rogan22:36

      Okay.

   10. AHAngela Hill22:36

       I was gonna say, it's the ones with the cartoons.

   11. JRJoe Rogan22:38

       Yeah.

   12. AHAngela Hill22:38

       Um, and that, that really helped, uh, just, like, kinda calm my nerves-

   13. JRJoe Rogan22:42

       Mm-hmm.

   14. AHAngela Hill22:43

       ... and keep the anxiety, uh, from, from being crippling.

   15. JRJoe Rogan22:48

       Sometimes what happens when you go to a coach is the fact that you physically go to someone and you sit down with a ps- a ps- it's like a different level of commitment.

   16. AHAngela Hill22:57

       Uh-huh.

   17. JRJoe Rogan22:57

       You sit down with this person. This person formulates a strategy for how you address some of the issues that are going on in your mind.

   18. AHAngela Hill23:03

       Mm-hmm.

   19. JRJoe Rogan23:03

       And then sometimes you can go to a hypnotist, like, uh, Vinny Shorman.

   20. AHAngela Hill23:08

       Yeah, I heard about that.

   21. JRJoe Rogan23:08

       Do you know Vinny?

   22. AHAngela Hill23:08

       No, I know.

   23. JRJoe Rogan23:09

       Vinny Shorman, he, he's fantastic, and he's done a, a lot of, he's, he actually hypnotized me. I asked him to hypnotize me 'cause I wanted to know what it was like.

   24. AHAngela Hill23:16

       All right.

   25. JRJoe Rogan23:16

       It's very weird. It's very weird. It's like you're there, but you're not really there. It's like you're in a room next to-

   26. AHAngela Hill23:21

       Did he make you, like-

   27. JRJoe Rogan23:21

       ... he didn't touch me. Nothing.

   28. AHAngela Hill23:22

       ... bark?

   29. JRJoe Rogan23:22

       No, no, no, no.

   30. AHAngela Hill23:23

       Oh, no. (laughs)
7. 28:41 – 35:10

   Late start origins: from office job to Muay Thai addiction

   1. JRJoe Rogan28:41

      How old are you now?

   2. AHAngela Hill28:42

      Um... (laughs)

   3. JRJoe Rogan28:44

      You don't wanna lie?

   4. AHAngela Hill28:44

      Uh, yeah, 20-something.

   5. JRJoe Rogan28:46

      26?

   6. AHAngela Hill28:47

      Yeah, yeah, that's the magic number.

   7. JRJoe Rogan28:49

      (laughs)

   8. AHAngela Hill28:49

      Uh, no, I'm 34 this year.

   9. JRJoe Rogan28:52

      Oh.

   10. AHAngela Hill28:52

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan28:52

       Well you look great.

   12. AHAngela Hill28:53

       Thank you. (laughs)

   13. JRJoe Rogan28:54

       When did you start training?

   14. AHAngela Hill28:56

       Um, I s- I did my first Muay Thai class when I turned 24.

   15. JRJoe Rogan28:59

       Oh, wow.

   16. AHAngela Hill29:00

       Yeah, so I called it my, uh-

   17. JRJoe Rogan29:01

       Maybe that's the thing, right? Like you don't have the wear and tear of like-

   18. AHAngela Hill29:05

       Yeah.

   19. JRJoe Rogan29:05

       A lot of people start when they're 10 and-

   20. AHAngela Hill29:07

       Yeah.

   21. JRJoe Rogan29:07

       ... and then by the time they get to 24 they already got-

   22. AHAngela Hill29:09

       They're all jacked up.

   23. JRJoe Rogan29:09

       ... MCL all fucked up-

   24. AHAngela Hill29:11

       Mm-hmm.

   25. JRJoe Rogan29:11

       ... and back's a mess and neck hurt.

   26. AHAngela Hill29:12

       And it probably stunts your growth too a little bit. I don't know, I, I f- feel like some, something happens.

   27. JRJoe Rogan29:18

       If you cut weight, it certainly does.

   28. AHAngela Hill29:19

       Yeah.

   29. JRJoe Rogan29:20

       Yeah.

   30. AHAngela Hill29:20

       Yeah. So yeah, I didn't, I didn't really do any sports after, I guess, middle school. And from-
8. 35:10 – 52:53

   Amateur success, going pro, and the TUF whirlwind

   1. JRJoe Rogan35:10

      So how long was it between your first class and your first fight?

   2. AHAngela Hill35:14

      Hmm. It was about, uh, nine months.

   3. JRJoe Rogan35:18

      Wow.

   4. AHAngela Hill35:18

      Yeah. So-

   5. JRJoe Rogan35:19

      So right away you're like balls deep into this thing.

   6. AHAngela Hill35:22

      Yeah, yeah.

   7. JRJoe Rogan35:23

      Without ... For lack of better expression. (laughs)

   8. AHAngela Hill35:26

      (laughs) What e- I, yeah, I'm like what else deep could I be?

   9. JRJoe Rogan35:28

      Yeah. What's-

   10. AHAngela Hill35:28

       Yeah.

   11. JRJoe Rogan35:28

       ... what can a girl do?

   12. AHAngela Hill35:29

       Nah, I was balls deep.

   13. JRJoe Rogan35:30

       Ovaries deep?

   14. AHAngela Hill35:30

       Yeah. (laughs)

   15. JRJoe Rogan35:32

       Yeah.

   16. AHAngela Hill35:32

       Um ...I was, yeah, I was really into it and I hadn't considered fighting yet, but, um, but my coach was like ... It wa- I think it was around the time ... Have you ever t- heard of, uh, the WKAs?

   17. JRJoe Rogan35:44

       Mm-hmm.

   18. AHAngela Hill35:45

       So it was around the time of that, and he was taking a couple people down. He was like, "Hey, you wanna do WKAs? You wanna have a fight?" And I was like, "Oh, are you sure? Like, are you sure I'm ready?" And it was kinda, uh, halfway because ... Well, I don't know if this is why he asked, but once I said yes, uh, there was a girl that used to train with us who was also doing it in my weight class, and he was like, "Oh." (laughs) "This is gonna be fun."

   19. JRJoe Rogan36:12

       (laughs)

   20. AHAngela Hill36:12

       So, so yeah, I thought it was cool that he had that confidence in me 'cause the- all the other girls who were in the tournament had been training a lot longer than me, uh, for years even. So, uh, yeah, I was just like, "Okay, let's, let's do it. Let's see what happens." Like, I was scared, but I wa- also wasn't, like, putting all my eggs in that basket. Like, I didn't think anything was gonna come from doing Muay Thai. It was just fun at the time.

   21. JRJoe Rogan36:36

       Right.

   22. AHAngela Hill36:37

       So I went and I beat two girls, won the little- the champ- regional championship or whatever.

   23. JRJoe Rogan36:44

       Wow.

   24. AHAngela Hill36:44

       And, uh, from then on, I was just fighting. They had this show, uh, in New York called Friday Night Fights, and, um, and I got a few ch- shows on that, or a g- a few fights on that. Um, I went 14 and 0 as an amateur Muay Thai fighter, then when- before I went pro, I was trying to get an MMA fight just so I had, like, one or two amateur MMA fights under my belt so if I do decide to do it, I'd have that experience, but no one would fight me. So I ended up going pro anyway. Had two pro Muay Thai fights, and then I had my first pro MMA fight two days before the TUF tryouts.

   25. JRJoe Rogan37:27

       Wow.

   26. AHAngela Hill37:27

       Yeah. (laughs)

   27. JRJoe Rogan37:28

       That's so recent.

   28. AHAngela Hill37:30

       Yeah.

   29. JRJoe Rogan37:30

       That's crazy.

   30. AHAngela Hill37:31

       Yeah.
9. 52:53 – 1:00:07

   TUF experience, rankings frustration, and why ‘being ranked’ can mess with your head

   1. JRJoe Rogan52:53

      So then when you were on the show, how bonkers was that?

   2. AHAngela Hill52:57

      It was pretty nuts. I mean, I- I feel like I had a lot more fun than the other girls who lost. (laughs)

   3. JRJoe Rogan53:03

      'Cause you just enjoyed it?

   4. AHAngela Hill53:04

      'Cause I was just, yeah, I was just there for the experience. Like, I think coming in there, and this is kinda how I view my marriage too, is like going in there with low expectations. (laughs)

   5. JRJoe Rogan53:15

      (laughs)

   6. AHAngela Hill53:15

      Made it actually a lot of fun, and now I'm still married, you know? (laughs)

   7. JRJoe Rogan53:20

      That's hilarious.

   8. AHAngela Hill53:21

      But yeah, um-

   9. JRJoe Rogan53:22

      Ugh, that's a funny way to approach it, right?

   10. AHAngela Hill53:24

       (laughs)

   11. JRJoe Rogan53:24

       Because if people go crazy high with the expectations-

   12. AHAngela Hill53:27

       Yeah, yeah.

   13. JRJoe Rogan53:28

       ...you know, no one's gonna meet those expectations, you're gonna be disappointed.

   14. AHAngela Hill53:30

       Exactly.

   15. JRJoe Rogan53:31

       Uh-

   16. AHAngela Hill53:31

       I got married in City Hall, I tried out for TUF after one fight and, you know-

   17. JRJoe Rogan53:36

       (laughs)

   18. AHAngela Hill53:36

       ...now I'm living large.

   19. JRJoe Rogan53:38

       And what- what- how are you ranked right now? What, where do they have you?

   20. AHAngela Hill53:40

       Uh, I don't know. I don't know. I don't, I doubt I'm ranked. Uh-

   21. JRJoe Rogan53:44

       You must be.

   22. AHAngela Hill53:45

       I've never been ranked. I've-

   23. JRJoe Rogan53:46

       What is it, how many girls are in the 115-pound division?

   24. AHAngela Hill53:49

       I don't know. I think, I think, uh, I've fought most, most of them. I've fought, I think I've fought about half of them, half of the top 15.

   25. JRJoe Rogan53:58

       Yeah.

   26. AHAngela Hill53:59

       And the problem is I haven't beaten anyone that's ranked now.

   27. JRJoe Rogan54:04

       Hmm.

   28. AHAngela Hill54:05

       So that justifies them for not putting me in the rankings.

   29. JRJoe Rogan54:09

       I would've thought after the Cifars fight you would get ranked.

   30. AHAngela Hill54:12

       I don't- I don't know. I d- I haven't looked, and I've stopped looking. Uh, I think, uh, well, I was ranked once. I beat, uh, um, Mor- how do you say her name? Moroz? Maryna Moroz? Do you remember her? Tall, skinny-
10. 1:00:07 – 1:06:44

    Judging problems: Houston controversies, open scoring, and more judges

    1. JRJoe Rogan1:00:07

       That's gotta be so frustrating when you're fighting as a professional and the judges... Uh, (sighs) I mean-

    2. AHAngela Hill1:00:15

       Yeah.

    3. JRJoe Rogan1:00:15

       ... you know, they say this so many times. The Houston fight was fucking bananas. That card-

    4. AHAngela Hill1:00:19

       Dude, and I was so happy you guys went on that rant, because I've been seeing it, like-

    5. JRJoe Rogan1:00:22

       Dominick was going crazy.

    6. AHAngela Hill1:00:23

       Yeah, yeah.

    7. JRJoe Rogan1:00:24

       Dominick was so angry.

    8. AHAngela Hill1:00:25

       Yeah.

    9. JRJoe Rogan1:00:25

       He was so angry. And afterwards, he was still angry.

    10. AHAngela Hill1:00:28

        (laughs) Yeah.

    11. JRJoe Rogan1:00:28

        He was so fucking mad, and he should be. He should be. It was, you know, the, the... Whoever the fuck scored Jon Jones four rounds to one over Dominick Reyes should never score a fight again.

    12. AHAngela Hill1:00:39

        Yeah, yeah.

    13. JRJoe Rogan1:00:40

        There's no way.

    14. AHAngela Hill1:00:41

        Because it's like the criteria that you use to say that he was dominant one round, you can't possibly use that for the next round.

    15. JRJoe Rogan1:00:47

        Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. Like-

    16. AHAngela Hill1:00:48

        Yeah.

    17. JRJoe Rogan1:00:49

        ... Jon won for sure the last two rounds.

    18. AHAngela Hill1:00:51

        Mm-hmm.

    19. JRJoe Rogan1:00:52

        And he might've won the third. Might've won the third. I watched it, I watched that fight three times since then. I'm like-

    20. AHAngela Hill1:00:58

        Hmm.

    21. JRJoe Rogan1:00:58

        ... whew, that third round is fucking close. Dominick-

    22. AHAngela Hill1:01:01

        Yeah.

    23. JRJoe Rogan1:01:01

        ... landed some real good shots, but so did Jon.

    24. AHAngela Hill1:01:03

        Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    25. JRJoe Rogan1:01:03

        So did Jon. Jon kept pressing.

    26. AHAngela Hill1:01:04

        That was, like, right when he started-

    27. JRJoe Rogan1:01:06

        Yeah.

    28. AHAngela Hill1:01:06

        ... like, slowing down.

    29. JRJoe Rogan1:01:07

        Mm-hmm.

    30. AHAngela Hill1:01:07

        Right?
11. 1:06:44 – 1:13:12

    Travel to New Zealand, early COVID worries, and a long animal-intelligence detour

    1. JRJoe Rogan1:06:44

       So you, are you leaving from here straight to the airport and going to New Zealand?

    2. AHAngela Hill1:06:48

       Yeah.

    3. JRJoe Rogan1:06:48

       What is that flight? Does it take three years? How long does it take to get there?

    4. AHAngela Hill1:06:51

       Ah, man. It's gonna feel like it.

    5. JRJoe Rogan1:06:52

       (laughs)

    6. AHAngela Hill1:06:52

       It's like, I think it's 15 hours.

    7. JRJoe Rogan1:06:56

       Whoo.

    8. AHAngela Hill1:06:56

       (laughs) 15 hours.

    9. JRJoe Rogan1:06:59

       15 fucking hours.

    10. AHAngela Hill1:06:59

        So yeah, I-

    11. JRJoe Rogan1:06:59

        Now, are you worried about coronavirus and shit when you fly?

    12. AHAngela Hill1:07:02

        Yes.

    13. JRJoe Rogan1:07:03

        Yeah.

    14. AHAngela Hill1:07:03

        Yeah. It's a-

    15. JRJoe Rogan1:07:04

        Kind of have to be, right?

    16. AHAngela Hill1:07:04

        Yeah.

    17. JRJoe Rogan1:07:05

        Yeah.

    18. AHAngela Hill1:07:05

        I, I mean, I'm less worried about it than, uh, Adam. He's like the worrywart of the two of us. So I'm kind of like, "Ah, I'll be fine. You know, whatever." But it's definitely, like, a thing that I should be worried about. Like, uh, I think it just showed up in San Diego-

    19. JRJoe Rogan1:07:21

        Jesus.

    20. AHAngela Hill1:07:22

        ... uh, like last week or something.

    21. JRJoe Rogan1:07:24

        Mm-hmm.

    22. AHAngela Hill1:07:24

        Like two, two people had it in San Diego. And now that they're testing for...... uh, they're using a different test to detect it. They're getting even more cases of it, so-

    23. JRJoe Rogan1:07:36

        So scary.

    24. AHAngela Hill1:07:37

        Yeah, it's already-

    25. JRJoe Rogan1:07:37

        You know where it came from? I was just, uh, listening to a podcast.

    26. AHAngela Hill1:07:40

        No.

    27. JRJoe Rogan1:07:40

        Yeah. Um, my friend, Ryan Callahan's podcast today, they were talking about it came from people eating weird animals from a marketplace, like bats and snakes and shit.

    28. AHAngela Hill1:07:51

        No.

    29. JRJoe Rogan1:07:51

        Yeah, bro. In China, they eat whatever the fuck they can get ahold of sometimes.

    30. AHAngela Hill1:07:55

        Yeah.
