  • UFC 323 Post-Fight Show: Petr Yan's Historic Performance
    Dec 7 2025

    Petr Yan became the UFC bantamweight champion of the world by defeating Merab Dvalishvili via unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 48-47) in the main event from Las Vegas, Nevada. He achieved this victory and the status as a two-time champion (three if we count interim titles) by turning in one of the most dialed in and inspired performances in UFC championship history. As you’ll hear me talk about in this episode, his march back to the title was as improbable as it was impressive.

    We discuss the significance of Yan’s performance, the tragedy of the co-main event, Payton Talbott’s breakthrough moment and much more.

  • UFC Qatar Results: Topuria-Tsarukyan Must Be Next
    Nov 23 2025

    At UFC Qatar, Arman Tsarukyan didn’t merely batter and submit Dan Hooker in the main event, he showed a vastly improved depth and well-roundness of skill. It was so impressive, in fact, that I just don’t see how any fight can be next for UFC lightweight champion Ilia Topuria other than Tsarukyan.


    In my UFC Qatar post-fight show, I discuss Tsarukyan’s best-ever UFC performance, what I’m vexed by Ian Garry’s game, the UFC return of Kyoji Horiguchi and so much more.
