BKFC was lit with Eddie Alvarez and Chad Mendes goin' at it. Conor McGregor was there givin' tips, and Mike Perry made his mark by bashin' Luke Rockhold's mouth. UFC 288 previewed with some dope fights, and the Knicks lost the first round, but still got a chance. #MMA #UFC #MixedMartialArts #FightNight #FightIsland #Championship #KO #Submission #Octagon #MMACommunity #MMAFighter #MMATraining #UFCFightNight #UFCChampion #UFCFighter #UFCGym #UFCPerformanceInstitute #UFCFitness #UFCFan #UFCCommunity

BKFC had their best night ever, as Mike Perry rearranged Luke Rockhold's face in the main event before facing-off with Conor McGregor, and Eddie Alvarez & Chad Mendes put on an instant classic! In the UFC, Song Yadong finished Ricky Simon, and here in the ATX Melee FC crowned two new champions. ONE Championship announced they're no longer in the Francis Ngannou business. Along those same lines, Eddie announced he's no longer marrying Ana de Armas... Also in the news, Nate Diaz turned himself in, Izzy went into his rematch injured, and the Power Slap house was apparently a drug candystore. Friday is Cinco de Mayo, which means it's a HUGE weekend in combat sports! Saturday, Canelo Alvarez defends his undisputed super middleweight title in Guadalajara against John Ryder and Aljamein Sterling defends his UFC bantamweight belt against Henry Cejudo at UFC 288. Friday night, Demetrious Johnson headlines ONE's first foray into the US to defend his flyweight title (with Sage Northcutt making his return) and "Big Country" Roy Nelson is in the main event of Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA. And if you're a night owl, John Dodson and Juan Archuleta can be found this weekend at RIZIN 42. In a special Round 4, Jordan talks to former Pro-Bowler and Lights Out Xtreme Fighting owner Shawne Merriman about this Saturday's LXF9, airing live on FUBO TV. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's BKFC's world, we're just living in it. Yes, UFC Vegas 72 happened and Song Yadong shined, but it was hard to beat the star power of BKFC 42, which featured Mike Perry, Luke Rockhold, Eddie Alvarez, Chad Mendes and, somehow, Conor McGregor! What's next for the leading bare-knuckle promotion? On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, guest host Alexander K. Lee ponders what other MMA stars would be an ideal fit for the BKFC and whether Gamebred Promotions' upcoming event this Friday can benefit from the bare-knuckle buzz. Additionally, topics include where Kamaru Usman now stands in the contender line, whether Israel Adesanya reclaiming his throne takes the air out of the middleweight division, thoughts on the main event and potential sleeper fight at UFC 288, Paul Craig moving to 185, Amanda Lemos in the title picture, what's going on with Francis Ngannou, media row randos, and more.

On this episode of Slip The Jab, we recap Jon Jones defeating Cyril gane and debate whether or not he's finally cemented his legacy as the GOAT. We explain why a title defense against Stipe Miocic isn't as fun as it seems, why MMA Twitter is stupid for thinking Gane threw the fight, why every fighter should be upset Geoff Neal got a bonus after missing weight, why Valentina Shevchenko getting an immediate rematch should be a given, and why we think something smells fishy when it comes to referee Jason Herzog standing up Valentina for inactivity. We also play the biggest and smallest bag, go over the highlights of the event, Conor McGregor looking like he got a little botox, and discuss Rogan being MIA during the filming of Jake Gyllenhaal's new movie "Roadhouse". Afterwards we give our Slip Picks and Ianalysis for UFC Las Vegas (Petr Yan vs. Merab Dvalishvili), take a fan question about Rogans Real father calling him out, discuss Darren Till getting released from the UFC, and why Aljamain Sterling should have been able to sell his backstage altercation with Henry Cejudo, since he's such a great actor. We also go over this weeks banger alerts that include Luke Rockhold vs. Mike Perry and Eddie Alvarez vs. Chad Mendes, Play our Post Fight Song of the Week, and end with a first ever "Post Fight Skit of the Week." Smells Like HumansLike listening to funny friends discuss curious human behavior.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showVISIT OUR WEBSITE: https://slipthejabpodcast.comSLIP THE JAB MERCH: https://slipthejabpodcast.com/shopALSO AVAILABLE ON:Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/STJSpotifyApple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/STJApplePodcastsFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Twitter: https://twitter.com/slipthejabpod
