Podcast appearances and mentions of phil dunlap

Ismael Barroso is the old man we all want! This weekend, he took on Ohara Davies and put him away in the first round. He reminded everyone that he may be 40, ancient in the sport of boxing, but he's got the mythical old man strength. With the win, Ismael Barroso captured the interim WBA World Super Lightweight title and possibly a rematch with Rolando Romero. Of course that is possibly up to whatever Ryan Garcia decides to do. Regardless, Ismael Barroso had a spectacular performance and it was fantastic to see. In the main event, we had Vergil Oritz returning, this time at 156 against Fredrick Lawson. It showed us that not all first round knockouts were created equal and his was disappointing. After hurting Fredrick Lawson, Vergil Ortiz pounced on Lawson and referee Tony Weeks called the fight off. Fair or foul? Weeks responded on social media that he saw that Fredrick Lawson had two scans tell them he had a brain aneurysm. Then a third doc was brought in to change all that. Now we're looking down the barrel of Vergil Ortiz vs. Tim Tzyu, and that's a fight we all can appreciate. What did you think of Vergil Ortiz and Ismael Barroso on DAZN?

Joseph Parker defeated Deontay Wilder and ruined everyone's most wanted Christmas present that is Anthony Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder. The performance from Joseph Parker was nothing short of fantastic and Parker deserves all the praise and big name fights he gets going forward. Not to take away from Jospeh Parker but Deontay Wilder looked like HOT GARBAGE! It also makes sense that Joseph Parker trains with Tyson Fury, the only other man to beat Deontay Wilder. In addition to Deontay Wilder losing to Joseph Parker, we will talk about Anthony Joshua beating Otto Wallin better than Tyson Fury did. Anthony Joshua has got much criticism for looking bad since the Andy Ruiz loss. But this fight marked a return of sorts. But I won't be so quick to say AJ is “back” per se. I want to see that from him in his next couple fights before I can say that he's back. Regardless, it was a throwback performance from Anthony Joshua with the fifth round finish of Otto Wallin. What's next for the former heavyweight champ? Lastly, we talk everyone's favorite decision merchant: Dmitry Bivol. He took on Lyndon Arthur and looked great. Dmitry Bivol dominated the fight from bell to bell but lacked that killer instinct that we all love from him. Bivol is great but what did it cost us? All 12 rounds of 1-2's and 1-1-2's. Does Dmitry Bivol face Artur Beterbiev next? What did you think of Joseph Parker defeating Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua returning to form and Dmitry Bivol cruising to the win?

Phil Dunlap, a martial arts legend, carries the torch of the Kachin arts from Northern Burma, a lineage steeped in tradition passed down through generations. With an impressive record of 119 professional fights across various disciplines, Phil's early career was marked by his exceptional fighting skills. However, his journey took a resilient turn when a car accident left him with a broken neck, defying the odds to make a triumphant comeback at 36.  Phil's story of determination also includes a victorious battle against cancer, cementing his legacy as a fighter and teacher, with a strong commitment to sharing martial arts with all. Phil's expertise spans beyond Lethwei and Naban, extending to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) where he holds a Black Belt from Ricardo Calvalcanti.

The two primary martial arts of Burma are Lethwei (a form of bare-knuckle kickboxing featuring headbutts) and Naban, a grappling style that allows palm strikes, and with a focus on ferocious pressure and unforgivingly applied submissions. Phil Dunlap has a lifetime of experience in both of these Burmese arts, with a lineage that stretches back to his grandfather's time in Kachin State during World War II. In this episode, I talk with Phil about how these two seemingly divergent combat styles actually complement each other remarkably well, the cultural factors that influence how martial arts are practiced among the different ethnic groups of Burma, the past and potential future of Burmese grappling, and how his combat base in Naban still sees him medalling at high-level BJJ tournaments well into his 50s.
