  • Ep 23 - UFC214 - UFC Favourites - Garcia/Broner - Lukaku/Morata - Popularity of Womens Sports
    Episode 23 and we've finally got new mics! Thanks for putting up with us for the past 22 weeks, and hopefully now it'll be a bit kinder to your ears. We start the show by breaking down the blockbuster card that is UFC 214. From there, we reflect a bit and talk about our favourite UFC fighters, fights and events. On the same night as UFC214, we have Mikey Garcia taking on Adrien Broner - Luke and TK give their predictions for that. Jack leaves us at this point and Connor steps in to debate who will be the better signing - Lukaku or Morata? To conclude the show, we ask whether womens sport could ever reach the same popularity their male counterparts.
    Hosted by Luke Byron and joined by Tom Kennett, Rory Ford, Jack Evans and Connor Harmer.

  • Ep 22 - Mayweather/McGregor - New Face of UFC - Gerrard/Lampard/Scholes - Most Dominant Sportsmen
    Following our most successful ever episode last week, we kick off this one by tackling the Mayweather v McGregor press conferences. Once the fight is all said and done on August 26th, there's a chance that McGregor won't fight in the UFC again - if he doesn't, we debate who we feel could take his place as the new face of the UFC. We've put it off for a while, but this week we argue between ourselves as to who we feel was the best player out of Gerrard, Lampard and Scholes. To conclude the episode we reflect on more Wimbledon success for Federer, and ask if there are any other athletes who have been more dominant in their chosen fields.
