Mikey vs who...? UFC BJJ had people thinking it was maybe an April Fool's joke but nope, the main event for UFC BJJ 8 features an unknown challenger for Mikey to beat down, raising many questions about why such a match would take place.

In this episode we discuss a lot, including:

  • Caio Terra's lack of injury management throughout his career
  • Joao Miyao's superb Scottish twister
  • Polaris's expansion into Spain
  • Whether Nicky Rod will bother to do ADCC 2026
  • The genius underground event in Australia called Scrap Mats
  • UFC BJJ 7's best matches
  • UFC BJJ 8's baffling choice of main event

    • Patreon supporters also get to hear about:

    • Jiu-jitsu in Kazakhstan
    • The most recent season of PFL
