What this part covers

machinesummary, machine-written

Yes: he invites al-Yaqoubi to a civil, respectful discussion because he rejects the claim that Sahih al-Bukhari is impossible to doubt. He expects it will never happen.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth says he would love to have a discussion with Shaykh al-Yaqoubi on Sahih al-Bukhari, having watched a clip of him saying it is impossible to doubt it. He quotes an Urdu couplet about not being Mount Sinai that crumbles at a glimpse, inviting the other party to come face to face whenever he wishes, and says the claim that Sahih al-Bukhari cannot be doubted is not a nice one and makes things complicated. If al-Yaqoubi watches this and is interested, he says, the discussion would be respectful and civil and the propriety due to His Eminence would be maintained, though he will be himself, but he expects it will never happen. He then moves on.
