The Craic returns! In a special Wednesday edition of the show, Petesy Carroll is joined by Chuck Mindenhall and Ben Fowlkes to break down the latest evidence surrounding Jon Jones's recent criminal charge, including Jones' seemingly self-incriminating posts on X (0:38).Jones' retirement disgruntled a lot of MMA fans, including Andy Aspinall, father and head coach of newly crowned undisputed champion Tom Aspinall. Petesy discusses his sit-down with Andy, who didn't hold back in criticizing the UFC's handling of the heavyweight title picture (26:06).So what's next for the heavyweight champ? The trio considers the top contenders for Tom Aspinall's first title defense. Ciryl Gane, Francis Ngannou, and Alex Pereira are the names most fans are calling for. The guys weigh the pros and cons of each option (37:59).Jon Jones may be dominating the headlines, but UFC 317 is fast approaching. The lads preview the Ilia Topuria vs. Charles Oliveira super fight and close the show highlighting their favorite storylines heading into this weekend's card (49:36).
The gang comes together (with their special guest - Inferno) to discuss the retirement of Jon Jones and the many ways the UFC bungled their heavyweight division. They talk about all the mistakes made by both parties and then try to wrap their heads around how Francis Ngannou isn't someone the UFC is pursuing. The gang then talks Jamahal Hill laying an egg in his fight against Khalil Rountree Jr. They then preview and make their picks for the stacked UFC 317: Topuria v. Oliveira card. All that and another edition of "Stuff We Like."
Two years after Tom Aspinall said he would retire Jon Jones without even fighting him, that's exactly what happened as UFC president Dana White relayed the news of Jones' exit at the UFC Baku postfight press conference. Less than one hour later, reports surfaced of a criminal summons filed in Albuquerque Metro Court accusing Jones of a misdemeanor charge of fleeing the scene of an accident in February. What does it say about Jones' true legacy that the end of such an unrivaled 17-year pro career would come in the most Jon Jones way possible? Minutes after announcing fans could expect double the amount of Dana White Contender Series cards in their next broadcasting deal, White quickly shot down any thought of Tom Aspinall vs. Francis Ngannou by disparaging Ngannou's integrity. How big would an Ngannou return be to repair all that was lost in Jones' title reign for the heavyweight division? Khalil Rountree Jr. dominated Jamahal Hill over five tactical rounds in a headlining bout to decide who's coming and who's going in the light heavyweight title picture. Rountree showed off the evolution of his maturity following a title loss to Alex Pereira by patiently picking apart Hill en route to three knockdowns and a wide victory by unanimous decision. How impressive was Rountree's performance? Plus, Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford embark upon a global press tour. And the fellas break down UFC 317 storylines. It's Morning Kombat Monday with Brian Campbell, Luke Thomas and the entire MK crew!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Islam Makhachev needs to fully commit to welterweight, and I'll tell you why. Plus, Daniel Cormier says Makhachev may only have three fights left. Also, my reaction to the video of Conor McGregor punching a man in an Ibiza nightclub. And the latest on Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall, with Dana White saying he's ready to “move on” if an agreement isn't reached soon.Then, my thoughts on Arman Tsarukyan getting named the backup fighter for Ilia Topuria vs. Charles Oliveira at UFC 317. And what would Francis Ngannou's legacy be if he'd never left the UFC? And finally, the story of how I ended up paying $12.5K to keep someone on The Ultimate Fighter.Chapters:Makhachev needs to commit welterweight (00:00)Cormier: Makhachev may only have three fights left (10:58)McGregor punches man in Ibiza nightclub (16:52)Dana White ready to “move on” from Jones vs. Aspinall (23:06)Tsarukyan named backup fighter for UFC 317 (30:36)Ngannou's legacy (39:13)How I ended up paying $12.5K to keep someone on TUF (47:45)To support this program, please leave me a review on Apple Podcasts or submit a rating on my Spotify page.
Fighting isn't just physical combat – it's a journey that reveals who one is at their core. This revelation forms the backbone of my passionate breakdown of what makes certain fighters special in their approach to MMA.After briefly recapping UFC Atlanta, where Rose Namajunas proved her technique translates perfectly to 125 pounds and Kamaru Usman secured a run-of-the-mill victory over Joaquin Buckley, I dive into Jon Jones' latest attention-seeking behavior. His calls for a Francis Ngannou fight while avoiding Tom Aspinall expose a calculated strategy of pursuing unrealistic matchups to avoid legitimate contenders. listen to me explain why the economics simply don't work!The heart of this episode explores the upcoming Hill vs. Roundtree fight through a different lens. Khalil Roundtree embodies what I most admire in fighters – those who discover martial arts as a path for personal transformation. Unlike fighters born into combat sports traditions or those who join to escape trouble, Roundtree represents athletes who find in fighting a means to channel emotional energy into disciplined growth. His journey from someone just looking to lose weight, to a world traveler training in places such as Thailand shows how fighting becomes more than competition – it becomes IDENTITY.Want to see more of my analysis?

Kamaru Usman proved the doubters wrong with his win over Joaquin Buckley at UFC Atlanta. I tell you what it means for Usman going forward and how the rest of the welterweight division should get matched up. Also, my thoughts on Paul Craig's illegal upkick against Rodolfo Bellato that led to a no-contest, and whether Bellato flopped to get the call.Plus, Francis Ngannou seems interested in a fight with Jon Jones. I tell you what I think of that idea, and whether the pundits are right to call Jones is a quitter if he never fights Tom Aspinall. And Ilia Topuria says he "hates" Paddy Pimblett. To cap off the show, I give you my recap of Final X Wrestling, which took place over the weekend.CHAPTERS:Credit Kamaru Usman (00:00)Matchmaking the welterweight division (10:04)Craig vs. Bellato - no contest (19:52)Jones vs. Ngannou speculation (30:35)Is Jones a quitter?

On today's episode, I tell you why I have a problem with Islam Makhachev basing his future on the outcome of Belal Muhammad vs. Jack Della Maddalena. And for everyone doubting Kamaru Usman ... have you forgotten who Kamaru Usman is?Then, I look ahead to Bo Nickal vs. Reinier de Ridder this weekend at UFC Des Moines, but apparently, Nickal weighed needs to cut a considerable amount of weight this week.

Fresh off defeating Leon Edwards at UFC London, I'm wondering if a title shot is next for Sean Brady. Then, my rare interview with Charles Oliveira (translated by Gabriel Checco) where we discuss what's really going on between Oliveira and Ilia Topuria. Plus, I explain why I agree with Oliveira's claim that he deserves a shot at Islam Makhachev's title. After that, PFL's Donn Davis tweeted at Jon Jones that he could make him $50 million to fight Francis Ngannou, but is that more worth it to Jones than fighting Tom Aspinall? Also, Aspinall trolled Jones with a rubber duck at UFC London, and Alex Pereira might be trolling me! Plus, I love Ilia Topuria's new nickname for himself, and some of the initial fan reactions on social media are hilarious. Finally, with Gable Steveson's collegiate wrestling career now in the rearvier mirror, I explain why he needs to make a decision on his future right now.To support this program, please leave me a review on Apple Podcasts or submit a rating on my Spotify page.CHAPTERS:Sean Brady's next move (00:00)Charles Oliveira interview (9:20)Oliveira interview reaction (20:26)Jon Jones to PFL?

On today's episode, Rafael Fiziev steps up on short notice to replace Dan Hooker at UFC 313 against Justin Gaethje. While Fiziev said yes, Gaethje is also revealing the names that said no - including Dustin Poirier. Then, I tell you why it was a dirty move for Chris Eubank Jr. to slap Conor Benn in the face with an egg. Plus, Francis Ngannou admits he wasn't fully confident before the Tyson Fury fight, and I really appreciate his honesty. Also, what will Henry Cejudo do next? Darren Till also wants to return to the UFC; remember that time he fought Dricus Du Plessis in a close fight? And finally, I tell you what I enjoyed from the most recent FloWrestling Night in America. To support this program, please leave me a review on Apple Podcasts or submit a rating on my Spotify page.
