Cub is such a cool, down to earth dude. Always been a fan. Wishing him nothing but the best.

I can't get enough of this podcast, the level of guests that are pulled in is off the charts. To the point now where every fighter wants to be a part of this or respects Rampage so much they they'll come on here. Keep up the great works fellas, I'm a fan for life💪🏽🔥💪🏽🔥💪🏽🔥.

Been watching Cub since WEC and never miss his fights. This episode made me more of a fan. JAXXON PODCAST is king. Legendary guests constantly.

As a casual cub fan this pod gave alot on insight into his life and I’m loving every minute, never thought my fav podcast would be hosted by rampage😂😂

Cub Swanson is the reason I started training striking. He was the first person I saw fight that made it look cool to me. The way be boxes looks so damn smooth. I would still put money on him against 45ers in the top 10. And easily one of my favorite fighters ever.

Cub Swanson is a legend! Can’t wait to watch this!

Swanson is a world beater. Def all time top 25, top 15 guy in the FW division. He deserves to be in the hall of fame for his contributions to the Featherweight division.

Cub is such a good dude. Chopin' wood for pretty 20 years. Win some, lose some but 100% always shows up and gives it all without bitchin or layin' down the excuses. Like Poirier, the Miller bros., Pettis etc... It's sad we're losing those kinda guys and their work ethic.

That Kron fight was wild! Don’t know how Cub didn’t drop him with those body shots in the first round! Cubs a legend that doesn’t get enough respect

Melvin got his in the end by going on about a twenty fight losing streak.

I MET CUBBY AT SPAR STAR MMA @ COMMERCE CASINO IN L.A. MUCH RESPECT 🍺

Cub is the genuine article. Always rooted for him and continue to, to this day. Excellent storyteller, also.

Cub is the first UFC fighter I saw using his celebrity for good, he was doing volunteer work with at-risk youths, or something along those lines. It was remarkable to see such the beast giving back in a role model setting. Instantly I was a fan!

Legendary Cub. Ill never forget when he beat up my Math tutor (Dooho Choi)

Cub was so exciting to watch. I’ve always shown support for him since the WEC days. I appreciate the amazing matches that Cub has been in. Many blessings to him and his family.

I've been a Cub fan since the WEC. Very proud of him and the man he's become.

Cub is such a solid stand up dude. Went to a memorial day weekend fight in Las Vegas. Garbrandt vs. Almeida. And I was probably middle row. I had on a KillerCub shirt and KillerCub hat and out of nowhere Cub Swanson came up to me in my row and said what’s up and we took a picture together and talked about his next fight coming up. Such a crazy experience and humble interaction with Cub. I’ll always hold onto that memory. Favorite fighter of all time.

Cub puts the 'G' in Legend

Damn gotta appreciate these fighters even more after this pod what they go thru with injuries shits crazy

Good Ol "before we wrap this up" Bear!

This guy is legend. Fight for his pride and you can tell his honestly respectful this is so rare these days and his gonna be a great knowledgeable coach. Keep it up champ 💯✊🏼

Cub and Rampage are real men, unfortunately nowadays there's not many of us left ❤

Rampage always such a great host

I met cub pre covid at the ufc gym torrance in California, he is and will always be my favorite fighter, he's attitude towards the sport and fans and style of fighting made me love the sport of MMA he truly embodies a martial artist. Win or lose cub has inspired me. Thank you cub

It was so exciting to watch Cub growing up! I wish he gets more recognition

Let's see Bruce Buffer and Herb Dean on there! I think Chris Cyborg stays somewhere out by you guys too.

This has to be one of my favourite episodes. So much respect for Cub.

Cub vs doo ho choi was one of the best fights I’ve ever witnessed. Thank you for that memory Cub!

Cub is one of my favorite fighters to watch. Back in the day I remember flipping through channels and seeing Cub fight on FuelTV. I've been a fan ever since.

Been waiting for y’all to get him on here. This should be a good episode.

Cub is MMA royalty. Epic fights since the WEC days. Its cool hearing Cubs story!

dude, this level of insight on gyms and coaching is soo damn nice to hear. as a coach, it is nice to hear fighters appreciate certain styles of coaching and notice it. i think thats important for fighters to hear. cub should really harp this out there harder because this stuff is important. ive had this happen to me when i was in high school training. i was getting ready for my first amateur fight and sparred with someone getting ready for a pro fight and nobody stopped us from going hard. he kicked my leg soo hard while i was going for a body kick of my own, it really twisted my motion as i got kicked that hard on my lone leg. maybe a freak accident but when i replanted i felt a pop and was in soo much pain. i tore my acl. that derailed soo much for me at the time. now i coach and train smart with a lot of athletes and to hear cub talk about this just reassures my stance on it.

Cub was always a favorite in the WEC & UFC. Great interview .Kingdom was a great show.

You guys have the best MMA interviews. Much love Cub! Been watching you since the WEC. The WEC was a great promotion.

My man. I am so honored to listen to this warrior. I’m 5th degree black belt bjj and Cub is the truly meaning of living bushido. OSSSS

Cub is a true warrior who has evolved into a legend

Cub is a forever a legend in my book. Amazing to see how intelligent he is.

Bear we love you but stop saying we’re ready to wrap up then carry on for another 30 minutes The guest won’t know how deep they can go with there answers after you Say we’re wrapping up every 20 minutes You can leave we’re here for rampage and the guests ✌️

Cub was always one of my favourite fighters to watch. A true fighters fighter.

Been wathing Cub fight since WEC days. Always brought the war. True Warrior. Tough and skilled as hell.

This podcast showed me a whole side of Cub Swanson I didn’t know, made me an even bigger fan of him

had no idea what these professional fighters have to go through. But what insight he has gained re: the proper way to spar, condition etc. Cub was a great fighter. looks like he will make an even better coach.

Ashamed to say I didn’t know about Cub until I saw this podcast. I’m a fan now! True gentlemen warrior!

Cub is the first fighter I ever met in person! He signed my star wars wallet at ufc 214😂👊

Cub just seems like a solid human…good stuff.

Power comes from the ground, the legs and the hip. Punching with the whole body not just the arms like a lot of people do. My teacher is 155-160 pounds, about 63 years old. He hits like a ton of bricks. No one hits harder than him consistently. Other guys 200+ pounds might get similar power (from our style) But the way sensei does it with every single technique: jab, straight punch, hook, uppercut, sweep, front kick, etc.. It's all about technique is the moral of the story.

Hearing Rampage talk about Rammstein and singing "Du Hast" is not what I was expecting in this pod

Cub has always been such a class act. Thanks!

I loved how goofy Cub was in his WEC fights I was watching the other day. Dude just loved fighting

This is by far the best platform for fighter interviews...!!!

If Bears a Bear, then that's the most dangerous Cub I've seen 😂😂 Jokes aside you guyz killn it

Love the charles stories. He’s my favorite fighter and I love hearing these little things about old school charles

This podcast has only 2 downfalls. I wish they was longer and dropped on time. They are so busy tho so I get it. Keep it up Bear and Rampage.

Cub Swanson. Man... What a Kool dude. I've been in the fight thing since the beginning. I'm 59 . Turned pro at 42. I was a black belt in Tang Soo Do and Ed Parker Kenpo when I saw the first UFC... After the fourth event I started Jiujitsu with Rickson Gracie. It was 1996 and there were no "American" black belts yet. You had the Gracie's and Machados. Everyone else students. Ricksons highest ranking guy was a brown belt Chris Saunders and trained with him mostly because Rickson was in Japan or Brazil alot. We became surfing buddies after I moved from LA to Ventura. I had a bunch of ammy fights (before CAMO) .. for like 8 years while doing ammy fights where ever they were often driving myself paying $20 sign waiver and hope you have a opponent. There was no MMA gear yet . And MMA wasn't even a word. It was NHB no holds barred. Tapout just starting slinging t shirts out of they're trunk of car if you were fighting at the event you got free t shirt and stickers . Vale Tudo was the Brazilian word for MMA then. King of the Kage ,Gladiator Challenge...were some of the bigger shows locally. And you could watch your fight by buying the VHS or renting from video stores. I've only met Cub as in a handshake in fighters warm up area chilling . Either my guys fighting .. I have had a couple jobs teaching jiujitsu or grappling at MMA gyms and have met a lot of fighters UFC ,Pride etc. and ended up being good buddies and ended up being they're coaches. Jeremy Scorpion Jackson he was staying at my place and training together when he got falsely accused of felony counts. Lodune Sincaid a everywhere champ except UFC also coached at my gym and did a affiliate school in Florida .RIP. buddy. I just wanted to say how this could've been easily a five hour podcast with such a Kool humble fighter,coach,father Cub Swanson IS the REAL deal for sure. He is a great Coach and his take on other Coaches was dead on. Also how Conor took over his spot and why they didn't fight. The injuries...yes lots. I can relate to a lot of his experiences. What a great podcast easily could have him on as a guest again. I could go on and on 35 years in combat sports... Ok thanks you guys.🎉 TCB⚡

Cub is an OG. I’ll never forget his fight with Do Ho Choi!

Always liked Cub Swanson as fighter and person in UFC interviews. This is epic podcast going in-depth on life and fight history and now made me an even bigger fan. 💯🆙✅👌🏼

Big vouch for “Hurricane.” He’s such a nice and humble dude and an incredible jiu jiteiro. No surprise he helped Cub when all the others stonewalled him.

This is hands-down the best MMA podcast out there right now. Rogan‘s MMA podcast isn’t as good as it used to be

Cub is a great fighter and true warrior. Went at it with some of the biggest names in MMA. Much respect. Let’s get Tikki on for an episode.

Awesome guest this week! You guys are killing it. Cub was such an exciting fighter to watch, well rounded and dangerous. He was insightful and honest in this interview and it’s awesome to see he’s training the next generation of talent.

Top guy, for a long time. World class speed 🔥

Killer Cub! such a legened.. this dude embodies what it means to be a fighter. Both in, and out of the cage. I feel lucky To have watched your career. Thank you for doing this podcast what a great time hearing your stories. Look forward to part 2

Cub has always been Da Man , always look forward to a Cub fight , glad to see him looking good

One of the best episodes, Cub has so much experience and knowledge and is able to communicate very well

Been watching Cub since WEC days, Legend of the lighter weight divisions. Genuine fighter and human being, authentic as they come.

This gonna be a good one, but gotta save it for work tn😂! LOVE THIS PODCAST

Amazing episode!!!! Cub is an absolute LEGEND of a bloke!!! You already inspired us all, fella!!!! You did win!!!!!!!!! Honourable man and a very cool dude!!! Love to see!! You were great with him, thanks lads!!!! One of the best podcasts online!!! Keep up the great work! 🙏🏻

Aight ya’ll got to have bear to an amateur MMA fight! Have rampage coach him through the chronicle🎉

Cub Swanson has always been one of my favorite fighters, the guy is just a legend.

You should get jens pulver on, he’s an awesome guy who’s had a very hard life but still came out of it as a nice guy and hell of a fighter in his prime

Dudes an awesome coach.

As an up and coming fighter, listening to Cub talk about training and things was eye opening. Most coaches are not like that wow, I needa get to that gym 💯

Cub is the shit. I love the guy

He's a Legend & “One of the Best to Ever do it”

Despite Bear's (usual) cringe comments, this was one of the better podcasts on here.. Well done!

Wow what a story Cub. Respect brother from Sydney Australia.

You got Cub?!! You guys get all my favorite fighters! And your interviews make them my favorite people as well. Thanks!

One of my fav fighters dam, this podcast is killing it

Been watching this podcast on repeat, y’all bringing in my favorite guests 😂

Awesome podcast, you can tell Bear puts a decent amount of prep into these. His questions are solid and not your run-of-the-mill type mma questions.

I always thought he made a mistake when he dismissed Conor after Conor called him out. May have been a game changer however Cub is still a legend....beautiful destruction!

🔥🔥🔥 another great episode

This interview has so much golden nuggets. Absolutely love this.
