     Do you have trouble with motivation? What about self-discipline? I was lucky enough to sit down with two dedicated young men and came away feeling inspired and motivated to be better. Jaycob has recently lost 100 POUNDS and Bubba is hardworking college athlete that enjoys the grind. This was my favorite episode that I have done and I know you will get something positive from this episode. 

     Two warriors, Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker, went to battle at UFCVegas4! They were fighting as if their life depended on it. True grit and determination was shown by both of these martial artist! My hat is off to both of them. As a fan, I could not of asked for more. If you have not had a chance to watch this fight, I highly recommend.

     In episode 6 of TalkSmackWithMac I discuss the thought of a 16 team NBA playoff format. Would this format benefit the NBA and add a new dynamic to an amazing sport? Or, would a 16 team format hurt competition? 

     Mark Cuban is an amazing owner. He takes care of his players and always tries his best to put a solid team together. Is he the best owner in the NBA? Best owner in all of sports? 

     Could Jason Kidd in his prime stop Russel Westbrook? 

In this episode I am joined with Piggybankpickz and we discuss some football. The Dolphins are a team in a particular situation where they can either turn it around or still play horrible. Is Ryan Fitzpatrick going to be great this season or is he going to fall off a cliff? When will Tua start and Josh Rosen has gotten lost in the shuffle. Will Rosen ever get an opportunity to prove why he was selected in the first round? In addition to Dolphin talk, we talk about the arrival of Tom Brady and Gronk in Tampa Bay. Brady is already changing the environment surrounding the Buccaneers but is he going to be able to turn back the hands of time and win another Super Bowl well into his 40's? We end the episode with some fantasy football talk. Sleepers and must haves. 

Lebron is having an amazing season and it should not go unnoticed. His numbers are ridiculous, per usual, and the lakers are nearly unstoppable when he is on the court. When Lebron sits, the Lakers are nearly a lottery team. But, Giannis is destroying everyone every time he is on the floor. His numbers are scary and his team has the best record in the league. My choice for MVP is Giannis Antetokounmpo.

     In this episode I sit down with Kenneth Santiago and talk boxing. We discuss if Deontay Wilder stands a chance in his trilogy fight against Tyson Fury, we talk about young upcoming boxers, and we also talk about what motivated Kenneth to start boxing himself. Great episode, give it a listen and let me know what you think.

In this episode I sit down with guest Travis Moore and we discuss the return of the NBA. We also talk about our favorites to win the championship and some of our favorite young players including Jayson Tatum, Brandon Ingram, and Lonzo Ball. Take a listen and tell me what you think. 

In this episode we talk about UFC251. The fight card is ridiculous! Awesome match ups and opinions on who is going to win. UFC251 is the first card taking place on "fight island". With no fans, the interactions between fighters is amazing! Is Conor McGregor really "retired" or is this just a publicity stunt? What about Masvidal?
