  • HOAM | Where Will Michael Page Fight Next After Announcing Free Agency?

    Michael "Venom" Page surprised a lot of people on Monday when he announced he was a free agent on The MMA Hour after his previous deal with Bellator had run out. While Bellator has the option to match outside offers, the options for Page are likely aplenty. Will "MVP" return to Bellator, head to the UFC, or a different promotion?

    On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck reacts to Page's announcement, where he believes the UFC could find themselves on the list of suitors, and more. Additionally, listener topics include Mayra Bueno Silva's submission win over Holly Holm in the main event of UFC Vegas 77, who Islam Makhachev could fight at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi, UFC London, the ticket prices to attend a UFC event, rumors about the UFC 291 fight between Paulo Costa and Ikram Aliskerov, and much more.

    You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.

  • Fighter vs. Writer: Does Francis Ngannou Have A Shot Against Tyson Fury? + Matt Brown On How Gaethje Can Beat Poirier at UFC 291

    The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with UFC knockout king Matt Brown and Damon Martin discussing the latest in combat sports including the boxing match between Francis Ngannou and Tyson Fury.

    After leaving the UFC in free agency, Ngannou secured exactly what he wanted with fight against Fury but does the former heavyweight champion actually stand a realistic shot at winning? Is Ngannou’s only hope that he can land a big bomb to finish Fury?

    Plus we look ahead at UFC 291 and breakdown the main and co-main event as Dustin Poirier battles Justin Gaethje and Jan Blachowicz takes on Alex Pereira.

    Brown will not only give his thoughts on the fight but he will detail what Gaethje has to do to beat Poirier this time around after falling to him in their first encounter.

  • On To the Next One | Matches To Make After UFC Vegas 77

    After her impressive second-round submission win over former champion Holly Holm in the main event of UFC Vegas 77, Mayra Bueno Silva has certainly made a case to fight for the bantamweight title recently vacated by Amanda Nunes. Was the victory enough to push Bueno Silva ahead of either Julianna Pena or Raquel Pennington, or is there more work to be done?

    On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and guest host Jed Meshew attempt to answer that question from a matchmaking perspective following Saturday's card at the APEX. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Holm, Jack Della Maddalena after his very close split decision win over Bassil Hafez in the co-main event, along with fellow main card winners Francisco Prado, Jun Yong Park, Norma Dumont, Nazim Sadykhov, and more.

    • UFC Vegas 77 Post Show | Did Mayra Bueno Silva Just Earn A Title Shot By Submitting Holly Holm?

      Fresh off the incredible UFC 290, the world's premiere MMA promotion returned with another APEX offering, UFC Vegas 77, and while the card as whole was somewhat forgettable, the main event gave us something to talk about as Mayra Bueno Silva staked her claim to a bantamweight title shot by submitting former champion Holly Holm in the second round.

      Following UFC Vegas 77, MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew, Eric Jackman, and José Youngs react to Bueno Silva's big win, Jack Della Maddalena's difficult test against short-notice opponent Bassil Hafez in the co-main event, the lightweight futures of prospects Francisco Prado and Nazim Sadykhov, the consistent entertainment value of "The Iron Turtle" Jun Yong Park, and what was quite possibly the final women's featherweight fight in UFC history.

      • UFC Vegas 77 Preview Show | Should Holly Holm vs. Mayra Bueno Silva Headliner Be For Vacant Title?

        Following an epic UFC 290 event, the UFC returns to the APEX on Saturday for UFC Vegas 77, and with the women's bantamweight title currently vacant, the stakes are high for headliners Holly Holm and Mayra Bueno Silva. But could the stakes have been even higher by adding the title recently vacated by Amanda Nunes?

        MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Shaheen Al-Shatti discuss the main event between Holm and Bueno Silva, the stakes involved in the bantamweight tilt, if the belt should've been on the line, and, at worst, if a title shot could await the winner following Amanda Nunes' retirement. Additionally, they'll discuss the card as a whole, Jack Della Maddalena getting rebooked against a promotional newcomer in the main event, the backstage pull-apart between Norma Dumont and Chelsea Chandler, and more.

        • HOAM | Reaction To Jamahal Hill Vacating Title — How Will New Champ Be Crowned?

          As if the combat sports news cycle couldn't get any crazier this week, Jamahal Hill announced on Thursday that he ruptured his Achilles tendon and will be vacating the UFC light heavyweight title. With the belt vacant once again, Jiri Prochazka getting ready to return, and Jan Blachowicz vs. Alex Pereira booked for UFC 291 later this month, how will a new champion get crowned?

          On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck reacts too Hill's injury, and lays out some of the options that seem to be in play to keep the title picture moving forward. Additionally, topics include Francis Ngannou getting the fight with Tyson Fury, the fallout from UFC 290, Robbie Lawler's perfect retirement and how the UFC is capable of greatness more often than fans are getting, Islam Makhachev's options for his lightweight title defense in Abu Dhabi, Alexandre Pantoja's next move after winning the flyweight title against Brandon Moreno this past Saturday, and more.

        • BTL | Francis Ngannou vs. Tyson Fury, Volkanovski Dominates, UFC 290, Adesanya vs. DDP, More

          While UFC 290 this past Saturday was one of the best fight cards the UFC has delivered in quite some time, the headlines were moved from that incredible event to one of the promotion's former heavyweight champions as Francis Ngannou got the fight he wanted.

          On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel will discuss Ngannou getting a boxing match with heavyweight champ Tyson Fury in October, the chances Ngannou has, and how the UFC will respond. Additionally, topics include UFC 290's top storylines, Volkanovski's dominant win against Yair Rodriguez, Alexandre Pantoja's victory over Brandon Moreno in a classic, Dricus Du Plessis shocking the world by stopping Robert Whittaker and his subsequent face-to-face with Israel Adesanya, #UFCVegas77 this Saturday headlined by Holly Holm vs. Mayra Bueno Silva, and more.

          Host Mike Heck moderates the immediate rematch between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and Morning Kombat's Brian Campbell.

          • No Bets Barred: Are Holly Holm And Mayra Bueno Silva Fighting For Uncrowned Champ Status At UFC Vegas 77

            Coming off the sensational UFC 290 card, the world's premier MMA organization returns with a disappointing follow-up: UFC Vegas 77, headlined by a women's bantamweight fight between Holly Holm and Mayra Bueno Silva. Is it a good card? No. But nonetheless, the No Bets Barred boys are back to break it all done.

            The conversation starts with the majesty of UFC 290 where both Conner Burks and Jed Meshew had winning weeks, and much fun was had by all. Then it's on to new business as with a lackluster, difficult card, both men have to pick their spots to find value. Topics discussed include whether the main event will crown the best women's bantamweight (now that Amanda Nunes has retired), Jack Della Maddalena's short-notice switcharoo, and the brilliance of the lightweight division.

            Tune in for Episode 53 of No Bets Barred.
