Here are our thoughts, leave yours in the comments.

The UFC Apex delivered a pretty solid fight card at the weekend featuring a wave of knockouts, plenty of drama but very little controversy – that happened on the scales the day before.

Despite 8 consecutive finishes to rap about, surprisingly today's show goes heavy on judging after an event that saw a trio of weight cuts being missed and a high-profile eye-poke penalty being distributed early.

Boxing is booming, right? So where have all the championship fights gone?

No male world champion has had more than two world title fights this year. The pound-for-pound list is littered with single figure outings, whilst the women's game isn't much busier.

In a time when stadium fights and unifications are regular, why has nobody taken 2026 by storm? Can you name a Boxer of the Year this year?

The boys get stuck into the facts of figures of the sweet science in 2026.

Nine first round knockouts – 11 in total – from 14 fights isn't just insane, it's a new UFC record.

And so, whilst the main event may have sucked the gas out of the room – we kind of expected that – prior to the women's flyweight title being contested their was violence all over the place in Salt Lake City.

We discuss the current state of women's divisions in the UFC, before getting very excited about the plethora of knockouts served up in Utah and the unveiling of three fights for UFC 335.

Ben Whittaker retained his unbeaten record in the pro ranks, but all talk of a world title fight coming next should be shelved as, once again, he muddled his way across the finish line.

The Olympic silver medallist dominated Irishman Conor Wallace for nine rounds of their title eliminator, only to run out of gas and was left hanging on in the closing stages.

The boys review the main event and the rest of the Birmingham card, which delivered from top to bottom.

Ben Whittaker is starting to look like the real deal inside the ropes, living up to the huge potential he had after medalling at the Olympic Games. But, who has he actually beaten?

'The Surgeon' is ranked incredibly highly by every one of the tin pot organisations, despite the fact he's never beaten anybody ranked in the top 100 at light-heavy.

This weekend he gets the chance to put that straight against Irishman based Down Under Conor Wallace. Litmus test time.

We also discuss Denzel Bentley's decision to walk away from his world title after seemingly being abandoned by Queensberry.
