Jim and Matt are joined by two fighters slated for action at this Saturday’s UFC APEX card.

They kick off the show reacting to the just-announced, stacked UFC 317 lineup.

Next, Cuban featherweight Yadier Del Valle drops in to share how watching old UFC VHS tapes in Cuba inspired his martial arts journey. He talks about earning his UFC shot on Dana White’s Contender Series and previews his debut matchup against Connor Matthews.

Later, featherweight veteran Julian Erosa joins the show to explain why he took a quick turnaround just 35 days after his most recent first-round finish. Now in his third UFC stint, Erosa reflects on his mindset shift and prepares for a showdown with Melquizael Costa—a clash of fighters riding three-fight win streaks.

Finally, Jim and Matt close out the episode with their picks for Saturday’s UFC Fight Night: Burns vs. Morales.
