Going Rounds Podcast

Lots of decisions on the card for UFC 321 but there were some good fights and a couple of great finishes. The unfortunate ending to the main event made the event feel disappointing. Eye pokes are a real problem in this sport and it ruins so many good fights! Mackenzie Dern put on a great performance and won the belt. A full recap and breakdown coming up.

The UFC Perth card had an Aussie in every fight but 1 and they came out almost perfect! With some controversy in 1 fight the main card was almost filled with finishes, while the prelims were mostly decisions. Either way this card gave us some interesting outcomes and some exciting fights even with all of the doubts and shade being thrown at this event.
