Shadowing Practice: BREAKING: Hokit vs. Gane at Madison Square Garden - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
Well, I just got a call from the UFC, and I am never the guy that gets – I don't break news.
2
I'm not against breaking news.
3
I just – I don't – I got news.
4
They gave me scoop, and I thought it was out there.
5
I thought I was being brought in on, like, the celebration.
6
Listen, Josh Hogan is going to be fighting Surreal Gone, Madison Square Garden.
7
But when I was told, I thought I was being brought in on the celebration like is Josh and Team Bad Guy Inc.
8
And I thought I was being brought in on a celebration.
9
I go to the dot coms.
10
It's not out there anywhere.
11
So I think they use me.
12
I think I'm the guy that got the news.
13
And I got to turn this around.
14
And it can take me up to 45 minutes to make a piece, but then get it to you guys.
15
But believe it or not, you got loading times.
16
And then there's an audio thing.
17
And there's an edit you have to run through.
18
And there's an approval process.
19
My point is, unless you find this out somewhere in the next 45 minutes, then I am breaking this news.
20
Madison Square Garden, Josh Hogan, is going to be fighting for the world championship against Surreal Gone.
21
Now, I didn't think to ask any questions.
22
I didn't really have any.
23
I was just listening.
24
In fact, I thought that the call was in for something else and that this had just come up.
25
But then they got off the phone and I realized, oh, they just called to tell me.
26
How cool is that?
27
So I feel like this is my job.
28
I feel this is my job.
29
I'm supposed to come and tell you guys, and I think that's incredible news.
30
Now, when I got off the phone, I realized I hadn't asked a question.
31
I assume it's for the Undisputed Championship.
32
I assume that Surreal Gone is the Undisputed Champion.
33
but from hanging up this phone call
34
and before i'm able to make this to you i was a guest on errol hawani's show
35
and errol brought it to my attention
36
that surreal gone has not been named the undisputed champion now i pushed back on ariel
37
and said hey ariel i'm well aware that we make this up
38
that we adhere to the rules we make up on the spot
39
but i don't think there needs to be an announcement that Cyril Gaughan is the undisputed champion.
40
I think he just is.
41
I think that's why you have an interim champion in the event
42
that the undisputed champion cannot continue and then he gets elevated, and Errol goes, well, he said, Shale, historically, what are you referencing that to?
43
I'm changing Errol's word a little bit, but he said, well, what are you referencing that to?
44
He said, think back, even think of Tom.
45
The most recent time this happened, they held a press conference.
46
He's like, well...
47
Guys, let me tell you about the DraftKings Sports app.
48

58
That's code SUNNIN.
59
Just download the DraftKings Sports app today and stay in the game.
60
With DraftKings, the crown is yours.
61
Yes, they did hold a press conference, but out that press conference is where they announced that John Jones was relinquishing the belt.
62
It was a simultaneous, and they happened to do that through a press conference.
63
Tom is the one that broke the news to us that he was resigning the title.
64
so there won't be the ability for a press conference
65
and i believe simultaneously that this takes place but i can't help
66
but to agree i don't actually know that
67
but hocus fight for the belt there'd be no reason to accept there'd be no reason to accept back the undisputed title,
68
let alone give back the heavyweight title, if you weren't in a position to get on with it, I want to get this right.
69
I don't break stories.
70
They don't call me for stories.
71
So I want to get it right.
72
And I just have to give you this little caveat that I was so flattered they called me, I guess.
73
Is that the word?
74
That I didn't ask anything.
75
I just said, okay.
76
And now Ariel is pushed back just a little bit.
77
Here's the thing in conjunction with all of this happening, a picture gets released from Alex Piera.
78
He's in the UFC's office.
79
He has just done a deal.
80
He releases a photo with Hunter Campbell in the office, which is very consistent with guys that just did a deal.
81
And Piera's got this huge smile.
82
He looks very happy.
83
Now, we don't have a caption and we don't know what that is but a picture is worth a thousand words.
84
And if you're attempting to deduce what you should get from that, it looked like Pierre got some news that he liked.
85
Without knowing what happened, I can at a minimum tell you they do not bring you into the office to discuss small stuff.
86
Small stuff goes through a manager.
87
Medium, medium-high stuff will go directly to you, but it's still done over the phone.
88
I need to see you in the office.
89
is a whole different level.
90
So what could have happened?
91
What are the guesses?
92
If Alex came in and got a fight and it made him happy, Alex really wanted to fight at MSG.
93
He asked for it.
94
Now he did want to fight Cyril gone, but he made a bigger deal about MSG.
95
And Alex likes to turn him around quickly.
96
And Alex has done that as a favor to the company.
97
So now if he's asking and saying, hey get me back in there there's no place else for me to go this entire year
98
and don't tell me i'm sitting until next year and they did that form that could warrant a big smile
99
but i feel like there's more i just feel it i
100
don't i haven't been told this isn't my way of like easing into something i wasn't supposed to mention
101
but i i feel that alex is likely to be fighting volkov
102
which is likely to be a number one contenders match and
103
if that comes on the same night which i believe
104
that it will i believe
105
that was the smile as i got my way i got my fight i got on madison square garden
106
if if that is the case that is really an extravaganza of heavyweights
107
and if i'm wrong about volkov then you're gonna insert pavlitch and if i'm wrong about that that, then I've got this whole thing backwards.
108
But, that sounds right.
109
A number one contenders match between Volkov and Alex, that sounds right.
110
Now, that has the potential to deliver one thing that you'd rather not have,
111
but it's something you deal with all the time, which is it would set up a rematch with God, whether that was a rematch for Alex or a rematch with Volkov.
112
It would set up a rematch.
113
I think the UFC likes to have a flexibility to make a fresh match when they can.
114
But it still sounds right.
115
To act as though Piera that's done
116
so much isn't going to get another opportunity is just being a jerk if you say that.
117
And you're being a bigger jerk to act as though Volkov doesn't deserve something very special.
118
And the one thing that Volkov doesn't have, Volkov doesn't understand the game.
119
but but the one thing that he he hasn't had that can benefit him is the right opponent
120
that if i'm not a guy that's going to play the game hey listen plenty of them don't
121
khabib went on to be a massive star he didn't play
122
the game chuck liddell never played the game went on to
123
run an entire era possibly the most recognizable mma fighter in
124
history he didn't play the game either islam doesn't play the game so there's a way there's definitely a way
125
But one thing that all those guys had was an opponent who did.
126
An opponent who did get it.
127
And that alone, my association, can elevate you.
128
And may I suggest, Alex Pierre plays the game.
129
If Volkov gets on a docket at MSG opposite Alex Pierre, it's a tremendous spot for Volkov.
130
Shaping up to be a tremendous card.
131
trying to do my part.
132
They gave me this info to get this info to you guys.
133
Hope you enjoy.
134
Josh Hokett is one win away.
135
Think about where he was one year ago today.
136
Now he is one win away from being the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
137
Thank you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
