Tony Ferguson Will Beat Paddy Pimblett a...

About this episode

On today's episode, I discuss:

  • Mateusz Gamrot defeating Rafael Fiziev and his consequent callout of Charles Oliveira (00:58)
  • Why I think it's wrong to count out Tony Ferguson against the undisciplined Paddy Pimblett (5:56)
  • Why I'm surprised Ian Garry accepted a fight with Vicente Luque (12:28)
  • Colby Covington's callout of lightweight champ Islam Makhachev, and why I applaud him for it (28:47)
  • What Marlon Vera doesn't know about USADA (36:28)

Plus, I talk about the UFC middleweight title picture (22:30) and I also sound off on the Miami Dolphins!
