UFC rankings don’t actually matter. I’ll tell you why. Then, Brendan Schaub says Dricus du Plessis could become a three-division champ. Do I agree? Also, why it’s unfair to hold Khamzat Chimaev’s past withdrawals against him, and why questions about his conditioning won’t matter when he faces DDP at UFC 319. Plus, my reaction to rumors of Ronda Rousey’s return to UFC.

Chapters:

• Rankings don’t matter (00:00)
• Can DDP be a three-division champ? (13:49)
• Chimaev’s history pulling out of fights (21:07)
• Chimaev’s conditioning (28:19)
• Ronda Rousey’s rumored return (37:45)

On Episode 3,590, the guys had a UFC preview and two guests. Payton Talbott, who had a new Immortals card coming out, and they talked about his fight career. Kieth Jardine also came on the show to promote his new movie, witch he wrote and directed.

On today’s Good Guy / Bad Guy, Daniel Cormier & Chael Sonnen react to Khamzat Chimaev speaking for the first time ahead of his UFC 319 middleweight title bout vs Dricus Du Plessis. Khamzat stated “The belt is not important to me… I want to make money & have a lot of money”, how did the guys take such honesty from a fighter? He also mentioned that he believes he has what it takes to become the first 3-division champion in UFC history… how likely is that feat for Chimaev? Also, Chael is hyped about the possibility of Fluffy Hernandez calling out Renier de Riddier for a middleweight BMF fight. And, Do Bronx has his next fight… he will take on Rafael Fiziev in Rio later this year… Is the 3 month turn around too quick for the #4 ranked lightweight?

UFC star Conor McGregor hasn't competed in over four years, but with the former two-division champ officially back in the testing pool, does that enhance the belief that the sport's biggest star ever will actually compete inside the octagon in 2026?

On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses that topic — if you choose it to be talked about — and the confidence levels in a possible McGregor return to active competition. Additionally, topics may include Tatsuro Taira destroying Hyun Sung Park in the main event of UFC Vegas 108 and the Fight of the Year contenders that preceded that contest, the countdown heating up ahead of the UFC 319 main event between Dricus du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev, the UFC being back at the APEX once again this Saturday for UFC Vegas 109 headlined by Anthony Hernandez vs. Roman Dolidze, and much more.

Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup — with a Q&A twist — between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and José Youngs.
