UFC: Vettori Beats Holland | McGregor-Poirier Drama | Bellator 256 Recap | Ep 142

Another Monday, another HUGE MK as the boys are back to FULL STRENGTH with BC and Luke both in studio for the first time all month. It wasn't a huge weekend of combat sports but the guys have a lot to get to, nonetheless. At UFC Vegas 96, should Caio Borralho been awarded a stoppage victory over Jared Cannonier? What else stood out from the card? Now that PFL has officially started promoting Francis Ngannou vs. Renan Ferreira, what do the guys think about this fight? Tom Aspinall is going as close to scorched earth as he can when it comes to Jon Jones. Will this work in getting Jones to fight him (assuming he beats Stipe Miocic)? Why is Dana White so curiously in the tank for a fighter he’s routinely been at odds with? Shakur Stevenson has signed a two-fight deal with Matchroom Boxing and has his first fight on the card in Saudi Arabia in October. Was this a wise decision and, realistically, what is a likely second fight? Luke and BC also look ahead to Let’s to September 14th which sees #caneloberlanga going up against UFC 306.

Another amazing MK is coming your way this Monday as Luke is back from vacation and joined by the one and only, man in the hat, Chuck Mindenhall to break down everything that happened at UFC 305. First, Dricus du Plessis defeated Israel Adesanya via submission in the fourth round. What does a victory like this prove about du Plessis? What does a loss like this do to Adesanya's legacy? What should be next for du Plessis? Sean Strickland? Robert Whittaker? Khamzat Chimaev? Or Alex Pereira at 185 or 205? Kai-Kara France blew right past Steve Erceg in Saturday's co-main event. Does this make KKF the top UFC flyweight contender? Did Erceg take this fight too close to his war with Alexandre Pantoja? Dan Hooker somehow turned back the clock against the smothering Mateusz Gamrot. This likely pushes him into or close to the top 5. What fight makes the most sense next for him? Lastly, Tai Tuivasa lost his fifth straight fight in the UFC, dropping a lackluster decision to Jairzinho Rozenstruik. Is there any real fix for what ails him? Can we talk about how insane that scorecard from judge Howie Booth was? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoicesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Absolutely LOADED show for you donks this Monday as Luke & Brian go hard recapping UFC 304. In the main event, Belal Muhammad made sure his name would be remembered in history by upsetting Leon Edwards for the welterweight title (and breaking Luke's 35-and-over title curse). In the co-main, Tom Aspinall needed just 60 seconds to demolish Curtis Blaydes in their rematch to defend the interim title before the respectful callout of Jon Jones.
