On Episode 3,593, the guys recapped UFC and PFL events. They also had a guest, Fabian Edwards, who is main eventing the next PFL card.

Khamzat Chimaev just beat Dricus du Plessis in a one-sided fight at UFC 319 to become the new UFC Middleweight Champion. We discuss the results of that fight, and the rest of the card, in the first half of this week's show.

Then we take a look at the UFC's new deal with Paramount+, as well as the PFL results, and a preview of the upcoming UFC Fight Night: Walker vs. Zhang.

Catch us Wednesday nights at 6:30pm on CFMU 93.3 FM, and online at http://www.thehammermma.com, The Itunes Store, MMAPodcast.com, Player.FM, find @SteveJeffery on Twitter or just email us.

UFC 319 is a wrap and Khamzat Chimaev is the brand new UFC middleweight champion after delivering a one-sided, grappling-heavy performance to beat Dricus du Plessis in the main event. With Chimaev finally realizing his goal of becoming a world champion, where does the undefeated phenomenon go in his first championship defense?

Is it the streaking Anthony Hernandez? Or perhaps the enigmatic Reinier de Ridder? Should the UFC Paris main event winner between Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho be anointed as the rightful No. 1 contender?

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 both Chimaev and du Plessis following their championship fight in Chicago. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Lerone Murphy after knocking Aaron Pico out cold in the co-main event, Carlos Prates following his brutal knockout of Geoff Neal, along with fellow main card winners Michael Page and Tim Elliott, and more.

At UFC 319, Khamzat Chimaev controlled Dricus du Plessis en route to an easy unanimous decision win, but the bout wasn't exactly a showcase of middleweight's renewed might or Chimaev's boogeyman status.

UFC 319 had some great moments leading up to the main event with several highlight reel finishes. Anthony Hernandez putting a surprise whooping on Chase Hooper, Joseph Morales making his second stint in the UFC count in a big way, Oleksiejczuk and Susurkaev both getting the job done inside the distance, as well. The prelims were definitely to be celebrated.

When we got to the main card, we were on a nice little adrenaline high, and here comes Tim Elliott taking out Kai Asakura like the stealthy spoiler he is. What are we to do with Kai after this? Carlos Prates put the nicotine beating on Geoff Neal and Lerone Murphy sent the angels out with their bugles for poor Aaron Pico.

And then there was the ugliest main event to ever exist. Was Chimaev dominant? Yes he was. Did he even try to press further for a finish? No he did not. Was Dricus fighting like he was just pulled from the 7-Eleven? Yes he was. Am I excited by the prospect of Khamzat dominating the division? Hell no, but here we are with a stinker of a main event and a new champ that looks like he’s afraid to do a single thing outside his comfortable wheelhouse. Now, let’s check out the rest of the results and bonuses while we’re here.

Khamzat Chimaev is the brand new UFC middleweight champion as he dominated Dricus du Plessis for 25 lopsided minutes in the main event of UFC 319. Now that Chimaev has shown he can deliver big results in a five-round fight, is there anybody at middleweight who can beat him?

Following Saturday's pay-per-view event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card, Chimaev's impressive showing, the fan reaction, and who could be next for "Borz" and du Plessis. Additionally, they recap Lerone Murphy's Knockout of the Year contender against Aaron Pico, Murphy getting champ Alexander Volkanovski's attention, other standout moments, and much more.
