UFC Women’s bantamweight champion, Julianna Peña joins The Pivot and is ready to set the record straight with Ryan about who the champ really is after Peña pulled off the win against Amanda Nunes.
“I’m here to say ‘I told you so,” to Ryan for picking against me and saying I didn’t have a chance,” Julianna first says as she sits down. Channing and Fred ofcourse egg on the banter and tell Ryan they might not be able to help him if she tries to fight him.
Ryan admits he was wrong but that his UFC prediction was influenced by being a longtime fan of Amanda and he is sorry for shit talking her as an opponent.
Learning more about Julianna’s journey to the top of the sport, Fred gets into her background as well as some of the legal troubles that she faced while coming up the ranks. “I only fight to get paid, no more street fights,” she jokes with the guys.
Channing is amped up as he hears the fight in her and how much passion she has for being the best in the cage and her approach to being a professional athlete.
The conversation moves into motherhood and relationships and the challenges facing female athletes to balance both the personal and work side of the sport.
Preparing for the rematch in early summer, Julianna says how she still will approach the fight and training as if she is the challenger with a target on her back to be dethroned as the champion.

I love the beginning. Channing: "Don't hit me" Julianna: "Don't worry, I don't fight for free"
Yea she does in a bar fight with a bouncer .lol l👀k it up .lol
@@Beautycatestant You clearly didn’t listen through the whole thing 👀 lol she clearly states she got tricked out of her position and being drunk didn’t help either and around the wrong ppl 👀 she stated she’s never do that again and she doesn’t recommend that anybody else do that 👀
@@anonuser3653 lol , obviously you didn't look it up !
Fighting for free is way more badass
@@theboogeyman9813 lol not really. Anyone can fight for free. Not a lot of people paid millions to fight. Fighting for free means you just like everybody else. Being paid to fight means you on other level, more "badass" and special in your craft.
RC stays having guests with some type of beef with his commentary 😅🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Good content lol
Good content let’s work it out with a conversation in front of the world …If I say something about you in public I should fix it in public also
He doesn’t have an easy job, he’s got to speak his opinion, I like how he always accountable for himself
.
Just based on the smile by Channing’s face by Julianna telling the fight story you can tell he’s done some relatable stuff.😂😂
Game recognizes game!!! Lol
Channing is nuts lol
"I know, I don't fight for free" Her confidence is supreme. Love it
It wasn’t ridiculous to pick Amanda over Juliana. Amanda was beating the breaks of the best in the world for years.
Steroids have been helping her and all of them are on something. So the one with the best dope won
@@bjvu9460 that avi 🔥 bro!
@@bjvu9460 You dropping jewels 💎. Facts I see you are aware of what these athletes really do to compete.
@@bjvu9460 i love how ppl make these accusations with no proof.
@@4uFriday those aren't "facts". no one in the comment section know if they are/were bothhh using or not...
I admire the way y’all changed her energy from being (understandably from her perspective ) annoyed at RC to her being open and clearly enjoying the fellas company . 👌🏼 that’s that realness and Humility of the pivot crew. Unbelievably dope and consistent content every time . Thanks guys
Channing Fred and Ryan all have different personalities and and have the ability to connect with different people on different levels..... Let's give Channing his flowers because he single-handedly lighted the mood for JP
I agree, she came in direct and not very warm…..that defensive stance being melted away made me admire the trio more and what they bring out of ppl.
This is a great point. It went from being what I thought was about to be the most awkward episode, to a great one.
Annoyed? Naw, she was pissed. She stated basically she only came on the Pivot to face to face confront RC.
She was reserved and then by then end very open. Definitely like the dynamic with her on this, they let her talk and let her tell her story, and asked questions. The dynamic of the 3 of them is so good tho.
See that's what I love about RC..He has no problem speaking truth and being humble when he's proven wrong about something. That's professional. Love the interviews. The guests. The comradery...Awesome
Let's be honest, Amanda has defeated all these UFC monsters easily and she is still at her prime so why wouldn't anybody pick her to win?
@@DogWater2011 the real money with the underdog
@@whodat5492 that's the truth
@@DogWater2011 The vast majority of all the 'experts" picked her to lose. That is why it was such a monster upset. So her "beef" if real, with RC was stupid.
I wasn't sure what to expect from this interview... I will say this, you all have created a podcast that is deeper than a round table talk. This is better than any podcast or news station out. Listening is so on point and the respect and honesty is key. You all have welcomed so many people on the show that have stories to tell and I'm glad you all are asking these tough questions and engaging with her in a professional and respectful manner. I never heard about Julianna before, but the way she has the courage to speak and tell things how it is. Real Great job everyone from cameraman to producer to editors to interviewers. I'm proud
This gave me smiles and laughs. Thanks fellas
Totally agree, well said
Ryan Clark was right ! LOL
RC one smooth cat. He got it out the way early and she respected how he dealt with it. Fred takes his research seriously and that pivot question really reset the conversation. Channing questions really gave her the opportunity to say what she felt in a straight forward response. I did not know about her but now I do. She is different and very thoughtful. Great interview. You guys really know how to make your guest comfortable and you see it from how open they are in talking. Your content is incredible. Keep pushing💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿💯💯💯.
I 👍 agree 💯
They all bring something different to the table. Great interview. Love to see Julianna get the spotlight!
Your understanding is special
@Rising Star - This is a great break down on how these cats do/did their thing. All respect.
Anyone watching this after the fight Nunes X Pena 2 ?
Fred calling himself out for that question had me dead. Leave those questions for Channing. Lol
Facts, he shoulda let Channing take over at that point 😂😂
I lied to yall. I said I wasn't gonna say this anymore. BUT...These 3 gentlemen make their guests feel comfortable. So comfortable in fact, that they can be upset with one of the guys and still end up just comfortably spilling it all. That's why this podcast is absolutely amazing. And also...Fred Taylor is for real a journalist now. Blood be doing mad research on the guests and asking the REAL questions. These guys are dope, fam. Peace from Mississippi.
Thank you for bringing her on, I wouldn’t have known her track record if she wasn’t a guest, also the way that Dana just gave Ronda rousey the belt was wild! This episode was amazing!👏🏾
The did the same thing with Jose Aldo
@@justinolson9208 Aldo was the WEC champion prior to the merge with UFC. I'd say that is a difference.🤷🏿♂️
Ronda didn’t want the belt she wanted to fight for it. She was the Strikeforce champion which was absorbed. She’s have been fighting the same opponent. It just means one less defense
@@auniquedisposition9009 and 10 years undefeated
She is the real deal - her grind is incredible after so many setbacks. Love to see this show "pivot" to all things sports...
Love this episodes the diversity, the inclusions & the range of the episodes
Julianna has a new fan in me! Especially with the "This is not the year of love for me.... Love is the downfall for athletes" Love this episode fellas, keep them coming
Mee too!!!...
Damn if she said that it’s a cold line
Ran into these guys totally by accident. Great interviewers! Great conversation! Great sense of humor! I like these guys!!
Freddy opened the floodgates for channing to go crazy with the next question lmaoooo
You guys are killing it. Great content. Great interviews. The Pivot puts the guest in the spot light. No egos on this show. Everything happens for a reason.
@Tony G because it’s true
Well said and I concur.
@Tony G Dam Tony why we gotta be weirdos to appreciate these guys where they came from and where they are taking it?? They left a successful show for principles. Wish I could leave my raggedy ass job how they treat me 😒😒😒
Frfr!!!...I fuckz with The Pivot!!!
@@baltazarpacheco8035 frfr!!!...
Wow, Home Run! I am more and more impressed with the three of you every episode I watch. What a great interview! Julianna's comment, "no, I'm a prize fighter and this is what I do" was most excellent. I will be sure to purchase the ability to watch her next match. For real! Very intelligent woman on a very intelligent show. Thanks To All.
Fred asking Channing Quests🤣🤣
Love how they told us to expect less content, and then they open the flood gates.
They need to have this same meeting again...today!
Yo y’all gotta respect the grind they said damn a schedule they just been dropping content back to back!!
That boy Channing is smiling his ass off since he got that new grill 😂
stop it. he was still chessin wit the crooked smile💯
😂😄😂
@@GodisReal44418 ☠️☠️☠️
He always smiled. Raggedy teeth and all.😊
Right lol! He looking good though.
She walked in that room strong as hell 😂
I 👀 this like I watch 85 South keep showing versatility with diversity minority Black culture athletes , insights only a true Baller can give Given knowledge at the same time , 3 Kings Keep up the good work💯💪❤
&& Daddy Issues (Tony Baker)
Wat
"Daddy Issues" is another podcast yo watch. Lead by Comedian Tony Baker
Facts. Fellow 85%er💯
@@pandaemoniumbad Bet
These boys are on a Rampage with the content … I never heard of Juliana but ima a fan now
Talk about adversity and patience! Love the conversation and letting the athletes tell their side of the story!
“Don’t worry about it, I don’t fight for free”. That’s what’s up. Power, financial boss. Great commentary fellas. Learning something new everyday is wealth.
Julianna has really converted me. She is a real dog in the octagon and has this swagger that is smooth, confident, and yet charming. I was not pulling for her in the Nunez fight but she has grown on me. Her energy and gift for gab is infectious, I have crossed over. Awesome to see her on the Pivot. RC handled her bold attitude to confront like a master class. He gave her respect and a platform to voice her feeling and gained her respect. Oh, I have also been sucked into this show...love it.
Frfr!!!...
JULIANNA MORE THAN HEARTH THIS FIGHT SHE HAS A DAMAGE BIG BLOCK EYE FACE
she's destroyed nunes u didn't root for her after that? lol
AMANDA DESTROY JULIANNA SHE HAS A DAMAGE BIG BLOCK HER FACE SHE MANY EAT JABS
Amanda DESTROYED Julianna many Eat Jabs her FACE HAS A DAMAGE. THIS FIGHT FOR PROMO FOR TUFF AND REMATCH. JULIANNA WON A FLUKE AND RIGGED
Let’s be real here. She was a 9-1 underdog. Any true fan knew she had a slim chance and she pull the biggest upset in years. A lot of people got it wrong even fighters
She is not underdog. She is the most trash talk.
@@robertsmith3885 ????
Y’all getting into MMA - y’all really killing the game with the diversity of guests and topics
Great content,u guys are killing it...your understanding of sports being broad & not limiting your podcast to just football & basketball is a smart idea bcos it will attract a bigger audience,you guys have mastered the art of interviewing....its fun,fresh & informative
Love the fact the fellas do their research on their guests and are prepared for the interviews. Love The Pivot.
this was a dope interview today yall. like the way yall conducted it! great vibes
I love that you guys are not only tackling all sports and giving them their light but all aspects of life! This what we envisioned when you first started and you are more than delivering!
And this aged well.. bet Ryan was punching the air in joy after the second fight 🤣🤣
Julianna Pena, great guest! Love the show, and the female guests. You guys teach so much, keep it up! Tough questions, like love, and Ego. Every athlete depends on their ego, but egos can cause problems in relationships. How to manage your ego is the biggest challenge a young man faces, and that's when you pivot
Go Raiders!
Great interview guys. Made me forget all about that other show🤷🏿♂️
Damn this was great. Who couldn’t love Channing. He has such a good energy about him and he makes the show so much fun. You see the similarities between fighters and football players.
Channing said I got 3 dudes on the ON SIGHT LIST LMAOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!
I came here from pats channel……..I didn’t know who your guest was or you guys but I really really enjoyed your show I’ve subscribed so you got me ..🤷🏼♂️👍🏻🤣😂🤣😂🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧much love fellas.
Crowder looking clean with the new teeth…Can’t stop cheesing haha. Great episode and what a way to expand guest list and dive into MMA. Big fan of the Pivot
She's so well-spoken and confident, nice getting to know a little bit about Julianna
Much love. Content keeps coming.
Great show as always. Fellas keep it coming. Met Crowder a few times, same guy on tv as in person.
Love the diversity of athletes !! I’m an inspiring female boxer myself. This was great. Thanks guys.
my boy channing smiling extra hard now😂💪🏽
Maaaaaannnn I love it!!!!! Between y'all and All the Smoke...... Great interviews 🔥🔥🔥
Great discussion! You guys provide great content, and the conversations have substance!!! Keep it coming!👊🏾
Love ❤ how Pivot is bringing the ladies to the conversation circle with their voice. Channing is lovin 💕 this he's so into her story about kicking ass. Pivot is so good it keeps a smile on my face and wanting to hear more. 👂
Thanks guys for your great show.i am so happy to see my former professional athletes sitting around the table to discuss and debate everything.the pivot took athletes to a higher level than sports .keep it like this guys great interview. Much love ❤️ and support for you.peace and be smart.
Great interview. All the questions we wanted to be answered.
I thoroughly enjoy guests coming on and having beef with Ryan 😂😂😂 I also enjoy Channing enjoying it also
Love how you guys not just sticking to one sport and branching out to others. Keep it up. And RC I hit the like so you get paid lol
Love the chemistry you guys have
I love how much content yall are putting out
Thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Good job guys!!!
Every video you guys put has me learning, I didn't know Errol and became a fan and here I am again
Very refreshing to see a humble, intelligent, beautiful woman hold her own in so many areas. Another Great interview.
I love every guests and conversations y’all have every episode
One of the best interview I have seen... I just subscribed ☺️ 😊 😀 👍 👌 💛
Why does Jules get 5x finer every time I see her 🤣🤣🤣 just watched her episode with Joe Rogen right before this haha
Thank you Pat For showing us about this podcast. I chose this one before the Shaq one. Worth every second. Thanks guys
Loved this interview!!
👏👏👏👏👏 Loved the episode. I used to be a fan of mma until it became so commercial. Great fighters disappeared once everything fell under the UFC umbrella. Fred, you are always a gentleman. Although you were uncomfortable, you were tactful and respectful. Your delivery is "Mr. Right", Channing is "Can't Get Right."
This was great....and completely unexpected! Lovin this podcast & the guests they pulling in...im a fan! Freddy T gotta get on board wit the ufc action. Once he does he'll be addicted
Shine on ‘‘em Channing 😬
💀😂
Great interview, keep it up guys.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love all the different lanes y’all tapping into and staying true to y’all selves. This convo made me a fan of hers out of the octagon first and from how she was talking I know she’s a animal in that octagon. Another banger from the fellas hands down the dopest pod out and I can’t wait to see who’s up next
You gotta be extremely dedicated to do MMA and be great at it like she is. I did martial arts as a kid, was successful, placed 2nd in a Kajukenbo grand national tournament as a purple belt, and like a year later I gave it up cuz I was just burnt tf out. You can tell she loves what she does, like genuinely loves it.
Even her STORY telling recap is efficient, detailed and NOT Missing a BEAT on how it's told! I'm All in engaged
You guys do your research and each of you has your own role in the conversation. Great chemistry, great podcast. Keep it up.
This thumbnail is like the movies that have some great acting
I love her confidence already 😍
Brandon Marshall went to KZhead and made sure algorithm never lets the pivot get past 500k subs... There's no way this show has only 250k subs after all this time
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 bro the show is not even a year old. Having 200k in 3-4 months is crazy! And that’s why us fan should promote it more 🙌🏾
@@christynsiny7415 wrong.. especially when between the 3 of them are already pretty famous especially ryan.. Look at nelk boys.. They suck as hosts.. but brings on pretty big guest since starting just 10 episodes ago, and now have 1.4 million subs.. its all about how they promote it, and the youtube algorithm
That was a great interview I really do like the question ask and the fun y'all have a lot of fun.
Great interview as always !!
Channing!!!!!!! We loving that million dollar smile! Shout out to Dr. A! She does good work.
I love how Channing is himself and everyone lets him be him. The fellaz have great chemistry. Great job on the podcast y’all
I'm late to this episode, this was great
I love this show, real authentic conversation.
As a huge fan I am of the ufc and everything about it I’m super excited and happy that finally they broke out on a dope podcast like this. I’ve been waiting since it started. Dope. Need more ufc fighters!
I want D.C!
@@victorguzman6744 can’t disagree.
@@ZayWaVy96 r.c & d.c's energy is awesome!
She said it when she said some people starting problems because they have nothing to lose in reality they do, they just don't know it.
Well said
Love this show
This is my favorite episode so far. Great!!!!!!!👍👍👍
Channing with the TEETH! New man!!
I love her story. She is a true champion!
FAKE
Lmao hahaha Channing is hilarious 😂
Great Episode... Love to see more fighters on here
Great show so glad I watched it will watch the rematch. She's a very interesting and intelligent woman good luck to her in life.
I how they make the guest feel comfortable they don’t talk over them or ask bad questions
Ryan got the hell out of there quickly, after the hug exchange, at the beginning. 😂
“Don’t hit me “ “I know i dont fight for free” 😂😂😂😂😂
I admire how JP handled the interview with grace, class and professionalism! 💛☝🙏
Really loved this episode fellas. She has layers and this conversation was able to show some of them and what women UFC fighters go through! Definitely a fan of her now! She's a dawg💪🏾! And thank you fellas, for making us the viewers feel like we are right there in the room.
Great interview love you guys
Much love and support fellas, great show😎
