Top Turtle MMA

You’re locked in the house with nothing to do. The guys at Top Turtle have you covered.

This week we’re giving you some theoretical matchmaking for when we return to UFC normalcy. ‘Gumby’ gives you his pick for the right challenger in every division and Dave tells him why he’s wrong.

Plus, we’re checking in with two fighters during their quarantines. First Lauren Murphy gives us the lowdown on both her division and who she’d like to fight next. Plus, she tells us what she’s reading. Then Randy Costa tells us why he’s about to be impervious to one of the deadliest shots in all of MMA.

Nobody can be certain about what is to come next for the UFC, but we can give you everything we got.
