Jim and Matt are back on UFC Unfiltered with veteran guests Michael Johnson and Jimmy Crute ahead of UFC 318.

Michael discusses his resurgence at 39, including a new mindset, stem cell treatments in Cancun, and how he’s embracing the gatekeeper role while aiming for one last title push. Matt, fresh off his own stem cell therapy, is especially curious about the impact ahead of Michael’s fight with Daniel Zellhuber.

Later, Aussie light heavyweight Jimmy Crute joins the show — and Matt immediately crowns him a fellow Kimura Savage. Crute opens up about bouncing back from a five-fight winless streak, adjusting to the New Orleans time zone, and what to expect in his bout against veteran Marcin Prachnio.

Jim and Matt wrap with their UFC 318 picks — including the BMF title trilogy between Holloway and Poirier, and other must-watch matchups.

Dustin Poirier's final UFC fight is just days away as he faces Max Holloway for the BMF title in the main event of UFC 318. With so much accomplished, and with so many memories made, what is Poirier's best moment as a professional mixed martial artist, and what will his legacy be?

On an all-new edition of BTL, the panel discusses Poirier's incredible career, and what he leaves behind in the sport of MMA. Additionally, they'll answer questions about the rest of the UFC 318 lineup and grade the card as a whole, Jon Jones saying he wants to fight whoever is the heavyweight champ at the White House next July, Conor McGregor saying he's back in the testing pool to fight on the White House card, and much more.

Join MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew as they discuss these topics, and much more.
