Ep. 90 - Strickland going to "war" UFC FN recap


Listen Later

Big week in the fight world and we’re covering all of it.

We start with our full breakdown of Strickland vs Hernandez, what actually mattered, who impressed and who didn’t, and where it leaves the division. Then we look ahead to Moreno vs Kavanagh and chat through the matchup, the stakes, and why this one’s sneakily important.

Plenty happening outside the cage too. The Mexico card looks like it might be in a bit of strife, so we talk about what’s going on there and what it means moving forward. We also get into the never-ending Conor McGregor saga and who his opponent realistically should be at this point.

Fight announcements are rolling in. Van vs Taira is locked in, and Blaydes vs Hokit has been confirmed.
