MMA on Player FM

The PPV era is (maybe!) winding down, and on Saturday, we’ll all celebrate by (maybe!) shelling out our hard-earned dollars to watch UFC 320, where Magomed Ankalaev will defend his light heavyweight title in a rematch against Alex Pereira.

Doesn’t feel like there’s a ton of sizzle headed into that one, but hey, with Carlos Ulberg absolutely devastating “The Devastator” Dominick Reyes last weekend at UFC Fight Night in Perth, perhaps we’ve already got a halfway interesting challenger waiting for the winner?

Also, though … “Big Ank?” Nah. We’re not doing that. We’re not saying that, dude.

The co-main features Merab Dvalishvili putting his gold on the line against Cory Sandhagen in — let’s face it — a fight we all expect Merab to win.

In other news: holy fucking shit, did you see Wanderlei Silva get knocked out cold by a guy in a tuxedo in Brazil this weekend? It was bad, man. BAAAAAAAAD.

Wanderlei Silva got knocked out in a post-fight brawl, and I'll give you my thoughts on that to start today's show. Then, Jake Matthews is appealing his controversial loss to Neil Magny at UFC Perth in a scenario I’ve, admittedly, never seen before. Plus, after beating Dominick Reyes, Carlos Ulberg says he wants to be the backup for Magomed Ankalaev vs. Alex Pereira at UFC 320 on Saturday. And my take on Pereira accusing Ankalaev of hiding from him at the UFC P.I.

And after demanding $100 million and 100 "golden visas," Conor McGregor now claims he’s negotiating directly with the U.S. government for The White House fight. And finally, if the UFC had to choose between Jon Jones or McGregor to headline that event, who would they pick?
