Petesy Carroll and Chuck Mindenhall are joined by Drake Riggs, who is on site in Seattle for Henry Cejudo vs. Song Yadong, to discuss a crazy week of news in the combat sports world.

First, they look at Ilia Topuria vacating the featherweight title, leading to Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes competing for gold in the UFC 314 main event (06:12), before the conversation switches to Paddy Pimblett’s biggest fight to date against Michael Chandler (22:16).

The discussion turns to the welterweight shake-up that saw Jack Della Maddalena granted a title shot against champion Belal Muhammad (40:32), with Sean Brady stepping in to replace JDM against Leon Edwards in London.

Reacting to yesterday’s episode of The Boys in the Back, the lads consider NewYorkRic’s comment on the obvious size difference that will exist between Islam Makhachev and Ilia Topuria should their clash happen (48:51).

Finally, Riggs gives insight on the biggest storylines from Seattle (1:00:00) before Mindenhall discusses whether the short notice replacements have affected Saturday’s boxing blockbuster from Riyadh (1:07:00).
