Legendary MMA journalist and fellow host of 'The Ringer MMA Show,' Chuck Mindenhall, joins Petesy to discuss the biggest grudge match of 2023: Alex Pereira vs. Israel Adesanya 2, which takes centerstage at UFC 287 in Miami on Saturday night (5:55).

The lads consider the ramifications of another loss for Adesanya and how it could potentially change the overall view on his legacy. They also speculate as to whether the loss to Pereira at UFC 281 has given ace coach Eugene Bareman more room to work with his celebrated student.

Also on the show, Petesy recaps big European performances at PFL’s season opener and Bellator 293. He also ponders whether a win for SBG’s Kiefer Crosbie over UFC veteran Alex Oliveira could catapult him into the UFC.
