Jake Paul and Nate Diaz will compete in the boxing ring in Dallas this Saturday, and the build has felt much different than most Paul bouts, but has that changed the interest levels for Diaz's first bout outside of the UFC? On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the Paul vs. Diaz matchup, the build being a bit strange with Diaz being a bit nonchalant about things, which fighter has more pressure on them, and stating a case that Paul losing to Diaz would not be a terrible thing for the YouTube star. Additionally, topics include the fallout of UFC 291, Justin Gaethje seemingly changing his tune for a fight with Conor McGregor and the chances that fight could happen, how Dustin Poirier has reacted to his loss to Gaethje, Derrick Lewis becoming a free agent and the odds he signs with the PFL over re-signing with the UFC, Saturday's UFC Nashville card, the stakes in the main event between Cory Sandhagen and Rob Font, and more. This week, the panel includes MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew discussing the big topics in the world of combat sports.

On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck gives his thoughts live from Dallas ahead of the fight, along with other questions surrounding the 10-round fight. Additionally, listener questions include a possible Justin Gaethje vs. Conor McGregor fight, where Cory Sandhagen and Rob Font would go with a victory in the UFC Nashville main event, Jamahal Hill, how the UFC 294 card in Abu Dhabi looks on paper, grading the UFC's slate for the month of July, the chances Derrick Lewis would choose PFL over re-signing with the UFC, what's next for Stephen Thompson after Michel Pereira's weight miss ahead of UFC 291, and more.

Usually, when Justin Gaethje delivers devastating kicks, they are to the legs. Turns out, he can kick you in the head pretty hard, too. Dustin Poirier found that out the hard way Saturday during the pair's main event fight at UFC 291. Now that Gaethje has knocked out Poirier and claimed the BMF "title," he's also the assumed the No. 1 contender for the actual, real lightweight title, as well. So, it was a pretty good night of work for him. Plus, we talk Alex Pereira's victorious but frustrating light heavyweight debut, Derrick Lewis landing a flying knee and stripping his shorts off (because of course) and the downfall of Tony Ferguson.

Justin Gaethje captured the BMF title, got revenge for a past loss, and likely earned a lightweight title shot with one epic head kick of Dustin Poirier in the main event of Saturday's UFC 291 event in Salt Lake City — the second consecutive pay-per-view card in the city to end with an emphatic highlight.

Right before heading off to Salt Lake City to cover UFC 291 for ESPN, Chael sits down to get into all of the latest MMA news, as well as this weekend's must-see card. On today's episode, he talks about:Michael Bisping's high praise of Tom Aspinall and Chael's take on how the British star can get to the UFC heavyweight title (00:58)Why the world's (supposedly) most dangerous man -- Jon Jones -- is a coward on social media (9:20)The official booking of Paulo Costa vs. Khamzat Chimaev and why Chael thinks this could be one of the top fights of 2023 (18:33)Whether Chael thinks we'll actually see a rematch between "retired" fighters Jorge Masvidal and Ben Askren (27:47)Then, Chael spends the rest of the show talking about UFC 291 and why tomorrow night represents a do-or-die situation for several fighters on the card (33:25). Plus, official predictions for Jan Blachowicz vs. Alex Pereira (57:17) and Dustin Poirier vs. Justin Gaethje 2 (1:03:25).And more!

It's UFC 291 fight week! With just three days until Saturday's explosive card, Jim and Matt are joined by a pair of fighters on the PPV main card in lightweight Tony Ferguson and light heavyweight Jan Błachowicz. Joining the show first is Tony Ferguson, who has a message for those trying to write off the 39-year-old's career as a martial artist and shares how he's reset his focus going into Saturday's fight against Bobby Green. The guys then make some picks from UFC 291's card before former light heavyweight champion Jan Błachowicz hops on the show ahead of his fight in Saturday's co-main event. Błachowicz speaks on the ever-changing state of the light heavyweight division and iterates his desire to fight for the title once again provided he beats Alex Pereira in the former middleweight champion's debut at 205 pounds. Once Błachowicz leaves, Jim and Matt wrap up the show with picks for the light heavyweight co-main and the BMF belt main event between lightweight contenders Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje.

There's a lot on the line for many of the fighters on Saturday's UFC 291 event, including the headliners vying for the vacant BMF title in Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje — but do they have the most to lose on the entire card, or does somebody else have more on the line in the long run? On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck answers that question, and makes the case why the main event competitors are at the top of the list. Additionally, listener topics include Derrick Lewis' future win or lose on Saturday against Marcos Rogerio de Lima, the welterweight title picture, Alex Pereira's explanation for the viral Walmart video, Tony Ferguson's wild media day scrum, where Kevin Holland could be ranked should he defeat Michael Chiesa on Saturday, and more.
