#2346 - Jim Lampley

Joe Rogan podcast. Check it out. The Joe Rogan experience. Train my day. Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. Oh,

really? That was your closest male friend?

Unexpected. Unexpected. But over a period of time, we just got closer and closer and closer and, you know, very brotherly. And the last public appearance Emmanuel ever made was my wedding in September of twenty twelve. And that night the wedding was at our house in Del Mar, California, and that night he, his girlfriend came to me and said we have to leave early. Emanuel's having stomach pains. He was in oncology by the next week. He was gone by three weeks later. Oh. So very touching to me and, you know, deeply symbolic of my love for him and thus the Kron Cat.

Yeah. What a classic Jim. And he was one of the first guys to realize, like, if you crank the heat up, it actually gives guys better conditioning.

He realized a lot of things. Yeah. And he he Emmanuel was a genius, in a lot of ways. And there were a lot of, sort of time honored rules and techniques in boxing that he quietly upended. Yes. Because he was more advanced in his point of view and thought process.

And then everybody else sort of followed his lead. Once

they understood what

he was doing. Once he if you

saw the McCrorys and Tommy and those guys, why wouldn't you imitate?
