Ryan and Paul are back with the latest episode of In the Clinch, covering the week that was in mixed martial arts. In our "We Have to Talk About" segment, Ryan goes off, once again, on open scoring and how it's long past time that it be implemented in major MMA organizations. Paul ran a Twitter poll while recording and kept updating throughout the show. That led into a breakdown of this weekend's UFC show from the Apex where there were 3 split decisions on the main card, all of which may have gone differently if the fighters had known the scores. They go over a busy week in news including a possible Fight Night from Long Island, an official location for UFC 277 and a rumored one for 278 and the announcement of UFC's Paris debut in September. The guys close the show by sharing memories of past UFC Memorial Day weekend shows as Ryan laments the fact that UFC no longer runs shows on what used to be the biggest weekend of the year for the company.
