CHAEL SONNEN
About this episode

Chael begins today's episode by recapping his experience at last Friday's Eagle FC event, revealing the details of his conversations with Kamaru Usman, Khabib Nurmagomedov and Henry Cejudo along the way. Then, Chael wonders if the heavyweight super fight between Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones will ever happen (13:55). Plus, Chael discusses what's on the line this weekend between Sean Strickland and Jack Hermansson (32:30), whether Said Nurmagomedov makes sense next for Sean O'Malley, and if Jake Paul would be successful in NASCAR (40:46).
