Conner Burks and Jed Meshew have you covered in that regard, with both men backing Jamahal Hill and the rest of the big favorites, leading to a monster 7-leg parlay from Jed.

The UFC is littered with names right now who could reasonably deserve a title shot and probably aren’t going to get one because of circumstances beyond their control. But who’s getting the rawest deal?

The gang hits that debate and more on this month’s edition of the MMA Fighting Rankings Show. Mike Heck and Steven Marrocco join co-hosts Shaun Al-Shatti and Alexander K. Lee to unpack the fallout of UFC 277 and discuss the latest swings in the MMA landscape (3:15). Does Brandon Moreno have a case to be the No. 1 flyweight in the world (15:47)? Did Amanda Nunes do enough to reclaim the title of MMA’s best female fighter (25:15)? Is Derrick Lewis’ latest slump just a blip in his career or a sign of things to come? We also look at the latest crop of new blood to enter the rankings to predict who has the brightest future (37:50), debate the title shot conundrum (55:40), and much more.

Amanda Nunes reclaimed her bantamweight title and champ-champ status with a one-sided unanimous decision win over Julianna Peña in the main event of UFC 277 this past Saturday. Despite Nunes' dominance, should the UFC go ahead and book the trilogy fight when both women are ready to return?

On an all-new Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck gives his thoughts on the title picture following the UFC's most recent pay-per-view event.

PFL lightweight contender Anthony Pettis and UFC veteran Sam Alvey join the latest episode of The Fighter vs. The Writer.

As he prepares for his first shot at the PFL playoffs, Pettis addresses his shocking submission loss to Stevie Ray in his final regular season matchup and how his own errors approaching that fight ultimately led to his demise. Pettis will also discuss what it’s like to get ready for the exact same opponent as he prepares to face Ray again on Friday, just weeks after their first meeting in the PFL.

Sam Alvey also joins the show to detail how the UFC offered him the chance to finish out his contract with one fight remaining despite a lackluster resume over the past few years where he’s amassed just an 0-7-1 record over his last eight fights.

Alvey reveals how the UFC gave him the chance under the assumption that he would retire afterwards but he has other ideas. He also discusses his recent work on TikTok where he’s amassed a very loyal following with more than 130,000 people tuning in to get his thoughts on fighting and a behind the scenes look at the UFC.

All this and more on the latest episode of The Fighter vs. The Writer.
