- BTL | Reaction to UFC 331 Announcements, Usman Nurmagomedov’s free agency, UFC Belgrade, and more
Usman Nurmagomedov is the hottest free agent in MMA, especially with the new MVP-PFL merger.
This past weekend, Nurmagomedov fought out his PFL contract in style, running through Archie Colgan at PFL New York in the first round. Now, Nurmagomedov has to choose between being the face of the new MVPFL promotion or attempting to follow in the footsteps of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev, and vie for the UFC lightweight title.
On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to Usman Nurmagomedov’s win over Colgan at PFL New York and where the top lightweight goes from here. Additionally, the panel discusses the rest of PFL New York, Dakota Ditcheva’s underwhelming win, Uros Medic’s big win at UFC Belgrade, the recently announced main event for next month’s Noche UFC card, and more.

43 min - On To the Next One: Matches To Make After UFC Abu Dhabi
Magomed Ankalaev certainly has the résumé and credentials to be next in line to fight for the UFC light heavyweight title, but the former champ’s performance in the UFC Abu Dhabi main event didn’t seem to impress the MMA community. With new champ Carlos Ulberg out with an injury and expected to return in the first half of 2027, does Ankalaev get the first crack at Ulberg in an attempt to regain the belt?
On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what’s next for Ankalaev after his fifth-round stoppage win over Guskov, and if a title fight is coming up in his next fight, or if he has to compete again. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Ramazan Temirov following his first-round destruction of Steve Erceg in the co-main event, along with fellow main card winners Magomed Zaynukov, Rizvan Kuniev, Abubakar Vagaev, and more.

57 min - UFC Abu Dhabi Post-Fight Show | REACTION To Magomed Ankalaev Getting Stoppage In Lackluster Headliner
Magomed Ankalaev got back in the win column in his first fight since losing the UFC light heavyweight title, but it wasn’t the most memorable performance in recent memory in the main event of UFC Abu Dhabi. Following the win, should Ankalaev get another crack at the title when Carlos Ulberg is ready to return, or does Ankalaev have more work to do?
Following the UFC’s most recent Fight Night event, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card, Ankalaev’s victory in the lackluster main event against Bogdan Guskov, and where he goes in a weird light heavyweight division. Additionally, they react to Ramazan Temirov’s brutal knockout victory against Steve Erceg in the flyweight co-main event, Magomed Zaynukov’s successful UFC debut and his ceiling at lightweight, and much more.
