Chris “Mad Dog” Russo joins Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber and declares the Yankees have no excuse not to reach the World Series, arguing their payroll and the state of the American League put major pressure on Aaron Boone and the organization. Russo also unloads on the Mets for letting Pete Alonso leave, putting more blame on Steve Cohen than David Stearns and raising concerns about the clubhouse dynamic involving Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto.

Anthony “Mad Dog” Macias finally sits down with the MMA History Podcast after years of pursuit. At UFC 4 he was billed at 190 pounds, weighed closer to 160, and drew Dan Severn in the tournament. He went on to win multiple eight-man tournaments in Oklahoma and the IFC, then met Kazushi Sakuraba at Pride 7. Macias tells the unfiltered story of the headbutt era, promoter Buddy Albin, the controversial nine-second UFC 6 meeting with Oleg Taktarov, and the early fights that never made official records. He also discusses two decades as an Oklahoma referee and raising sons who now compete. The only podcast dedicated 100% to preserving mixed martial arts history through interviews with the men who lived it.0:00 start0:46 MMA History Podcast intro 1:19 Joey Venti's guest introduction 1:35 interview start 2:38 current life/ career3:17 fighting during the headbutt era 5:11 announced as a state champ wrestler 6:04 introduction to submission grappling 6:41 thoughts on promoter Buddy Albin 10:40 Anthony Macias sons MMA career11:02 lying about weight on UFC application 11:44 Buddy Albins relationship with the UFC12:39 UFC 4 name draw for matches 14:01 Anthony Macias vs Dan Severn 17:12 Anthony Macias vs Oleg Taktarov 18:22 early training partners 18:48 working for Andy Anderson 19:50 refusing to joining the Lions Den20:37 cornering Oleg Taktarov 22:34 Oleg Taktarov vs Dan Severn23:03 Anthony Macias vs He-Man Gibson25:27 alternate bout at UFC 6 26:19 full contact fighter interview 27:17 rough childhood growing up 28:18 working out with Ron Tripp28:41 conversations backstage at UFC 630:28 relationship with Buddy Albin after UFC30:52 thoughts on Tank Abbott 32:22 Ken Shamrock vs Oleg Taktarov 35:01 Underestimating Vladimir Matyushenko 36:27 OFFF 8 man tournament38:35 Anthony Macias vs John Dixson39:36 Anthony Macias vs Jason Nicholsen40:29 IFC Ukraine event 43:35 IFC 2 8 man tournament45:12 payment for 8 man tournaments46:11 Anthony Macias vs Brian Gassaway47:55 fighting over 20 bouts in 1 year 49:00 meeting John Perretti 49:50 Anthony Macias vs Allan Goes51:29 thoughts on Andy Anderson/ stories56:27 Oleg Taktarov vs Renzo Gracie 1:00:42 having grit and durability as a fighter1:02:19 tearing hamstring during fight 1:03:43 Anthony Macias vs Frank Trigg 1:05:08 Anthony Macias vs Wes Gassaway1:05:29 rematch with Vladimir Matyushenko1:06:57 Anthony Macias vs Cedric Marks 1:08:47 taking a 2 year break 1:09:35 Anthony Macias vs Kazushi Sakuraba1:12:13 experience in Japan1:12:42 relationship with Steve Nelson1:13:34 Anthony Macias vs Tony Ross1:13:59 relationship with Paul Smith 1:15:07 C3 struggles staying in business 1:16:07 Anthony Macias vs Jesse Jones 1:16:31 Anthony Macias vs Eiji Mitsuoka1:17:15 Anthony Macias vs Chad Cook 1:18:00 FFC promotion1:19:27 Anthony Macias vs Josh Neer1:21:07 Combat Corner program1:21:54 Anthony Macias vs Kevin Gittemeir 1:22:28 issues with Rafael Lovato 1:23:24 turned away from Jean Jacques Machado 1:24:50 Gene LeBell1:25:02 Anthony Macias vs Shonie Carter 1:26:34 having an underrated career1:27:26 C3 and their limitations1:28:28 Evan Tanner1:29:16 receiving different black belts1:30:14 dealings with Bob Shamrock 1:31:01 future plans for Neko Macias1:34:36 Mikey Burnett1:34:47 receiving the name Mad Dog1:35:03 interview wrap up 1:35:55 outro/ closing thoughtsInstagram https://www.instagram.com/mmahistorypodcast?igsh=aHVweHdncXQycHBy&utm_source=qrSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/3q8KsfqrSQSjkdPLkdtNWb?si=aL3D5Y3aTDi-PQZdweWL8gApple Podcast MMA History PodcastYouTube https://youtube.com/@MMAHistoryPodcast?si=bj1RBXTZ2X82tv_JOutro song: Power - https://tunetank.com/t/2gji/1458-powerMike - The MMA Detective - @mikedavis632 Cash App - $mikedavis1231Venmo - Mike-Davis-63ZELLE: Cutthroatmma@gmail.com / ph#: 773-491-5052 Thank You for your supportMMAHistory #UFC #PrideFC #noholdsbarred

But after his conviction was overturned on a legal technicality, he walked free. Within a year of being granted his freedom, Joseph Taborsky teamed up with Arthur Culombe, and over the course of roughly six weeks, the pair terrorized Connecticut, murdering six people in a brutal robbery spree that became known as the "Mad Dog Killings."Sources:
