Ilia Topuria’s called his shot, and on today's episode, I give you my reaction to Topuria's first-round knockout of Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 in Las Vegas. Does this make Topuria a global superstar? And will he get Arman Tsarukyan next, or will it be Paddy Pimblett? Despite Dana White pouring cold water on the idea of Topuria vs. Pimblett.

Later, Alexandre Pantoja deserves more credit for what he did to Kai Kara-France. And finally, my sources tell me the Magomed Ankalaev vs. Alex Pereira rematch is officially happening.
