Fight Talk Unlimited

This week we present an action-packed show with plenty of discussion about fighter pay, Joe Rogan and Ronda Rousey are both agreeing on UFC not paying fighters enough, Colby Covington is complaining about UFC refusing to offer him fights, and 85,000 free tickets are being dispensed for an outdoor viewing event for the White House event.

This week we look forward to another UFC event featuring a main event of Josh Emmett against Kevin Vallejos. We also recap last week's BMF Title card where Max Holloway ended up getting dominated by Charles Oliveira. We also discuss the UFC White House card and the underwhelming main card fights already announced. Specifically, we mention the Jon Jones snub story and how it might result in him fighting on an MVP Promotions card in the future. We also recap and preview boxing action and chat about some other recent news items. Tom also gives us his psychic vision of the week, Tony provides us his Tornado Warning, and Rich gives out a couple lame "Dad" jokes for the week.

This is an action-packed episode. We discuss lots of boxing and MMA results and previews, but we also cover a lot of news about upcoming fights. Tom, Tony, and Rich have a lengthy discussion about Claressa Shields boxing Cris "Cyborg" Justino in a boxing match slated for the undercard of Carano versus Rousey on Netflix. We also chat about the rematch of Pacquiao versus Mayweather. We get into the schedule and results for boxing, and we also recap the Strickland versus Hernandez card in depth. Rich and Tom give their leans and likes for Saturday's UFC contest with Brandon Moreno squaring off with Lone’er Kavanagh in the Mexico City main event. Rich also gives his take on Zuffa Boxing's latest power move in signing Connor Benn for a multi-million dollar contract. He dissects what the new kid on boxing's block is doing to piss of competitors, ruffle the feathers of some of their other promotion's MMA fighters, and corner the boxing market with "other people's money."

This week, we take a close look at Zuffa Boxing and the first UFC show aired on Paramount Plus.

Bear with our early technical difficulties on this broadcast. We started out fine before Psychic Tom ended up being disconnected, and then we proceeded without him for a few minutes until we found a way to reconnect with him. The show really gets rolling when the crystal ball reception gets cleared up. Tony gives us a profound Tornado Warning about life and Tom looks at old school versus new school in boxing terms in his "Psychic Vision." 

Rich gives us a run-down of the two biggest fights of the weekend in boxing. Agit Kabayel remained undefeated in a battle of heavyweight unbeatens, even after getting cut and outclassed in the opening round by the taller, lankier Damian Knyba. A bigger upset unfolded as Super Lightweight Boxer Dalton Smith remained undefeated with his nineteenth straight professional victory over Subriel Matias (now 23-3). Matias seemed to be taking control of the fight with Smith withering when the tide turned and Matias ended up wobbling all the way to the ground in a whirlwind of punches from Smith. The referee didn't give Matias much of an opportunity to recover when he rose to his feet and tried to continue. Both fights ended with quick, but justified stoppages designed to protect the fighter. 

We cover some other related and unrelated news and wrap up this show in just over an hour this week, barely giving much of a look at the first UFC event on Paramount coming up, which just suffered the loss of a co-main event matchup for the ages. Amanda Nunes will not get to battle Kayla Harrison yet. A neck surgery changed the timeline on that fight recently.
