Greg was on vacation this week (but is back for today’s show), Brad has paid TMZ and has some pictures to show of his week.

WWE travelled to Boston this week. Someone probably paid $60 for a couple of Sam Adams Summer Ales.

SmackDown was a pretty good show. Sami is now a SmackDown star. We get too much MFT.

Alexa vs Piper Niven started us off with a fun match. Alexa picked up the win.

Melo Don’t Miz took on Fraziom with Melo and Miz dissension and a win.

Drew MacIntyre tells us it’s all his fault.

DIY and the Street Profits had a great back and forth match. Maybe we see a 3 on 3 match with these teams in future.

R-Truth and Ron Killings showed up backstage… it really depends on which direction his hat is turned.

Finally we get MFTs and the Usos (Jimmy, Sami and Jacob) in our main event.

Khamzat Chimaev is finally getting his chance at UFC gold, but will Dricus du Plessis keep him waiting?

It's the biggest fight of the year and one with major stakes as to the future of both competitors. Will Chimaev finally grab gold or will du Plessis stake his claim as one of the best fighters on Earth?

Ahead of this weekend's event, MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee and Jed Meshew preview the the middleweight title fight main event, the co-main event bout between Aaron Pico and Lerone Murphy, Bryan Battle's tough weight miss, the rest of Saturday's big event, and much more.

The UFC signed a massive deal to move to Paramount starting in 2026 - ending pay-per-views! I’ll tell you what that means for fans and fighters. Then, Caio Borralho finds himself in an unusual spot as the backup for UFC 319’s main event in Chicago, while still set to face Nassourdine Imavov in three weeks.

Also, Khamzat Chimaev says his striking will be the key to beating Dricus du Plessis, but who’s actually the better striker? Plus, why I’m interested in what happens when an unfiltered du Plessis and Chimaev share a press conference, and whether a loss for Chimaev would be a career ender.

Later, a fight week video of du Plessis and Chimaev shaking hands has people debating who’s bigger - but does it really matter? And finally, my official prediction for the main event!

Chapters:

• The end of pay-per-view (00:00)
• Caio Borralho’s unusual spot (15:24)
• DDP vs. Chimaev: Better striker? (24:24)
• UFC 319 press conference (33:19)
• Is a loss for Chimaev a career ender? (40:39)
• DDP vs. Chimaev: Who's bigger? (47:46)
• UFC 319 official prediction (56:00)
