It's been 11 months since we've stepped into the Dojo but we're back...for just this episode lol. Seven years ago we recorded an episode dedicated to women's history month and in 2025 we're coming back to show the ladies in combat sports some more love. This time we both highlight 15 fights each to check out that span across MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai, Boxing and more. And it wouldn't be an DTP episode if we didn't have some random ramblings. Elsewhere we briefly talk Leon Edwards Vs Sean Brady, ONE 172, and we shout out U-God of Wu-Tang because why not. Thank you guys for still rocking with us after all these years. We hope you enjoy!

On today's episode, Mario Kalpou talks about surviving in the wild and his past experiencesMario Kalpou's lifelong fascination with nature's bounty took root at a young age.

He deepened his love of harvesting from the wild and honed his already advanced outdoor skills when he traded the metropolitan restaurant world for rural New Zealand. Kalpou opened an extreme-adventure lodge and became a professional guide for overseas clients.

Hear Matt and guest co-host Brett Okamoto talk with Beneil Dariush, and preview UFC 275, on today's episode of UFC Unfiltered! First, Matt and today's co-host, ESPN MMA reporter Brett Okamoto, kick off the show. After Brett reveals how Michael Bisping made him miss a flight for the first and only time, he and Matt preview UFC 275 this weekend in Singapore. They discuss why Rose Namajunas losing the title is more motivation for Joanna Jedrzejczyk to perform against Zhang Weili, whether or not Taila Santos has the skillset needed to defeat UFC Women's Flyweight champion, Valentina Shevchenko, in the co-main event, and why the UFC Light Heavyweight champion Glover Teixeira has a clear path to victory against Jiri Prochazka in the main event. Then, Beneil Dariush joins the show. He reveals his reaction to Conor McGregor bashing him on Twitter, explains what common mistake Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje made when they faced Charles Oliveira for the UFC Lightweight belt, and shares why he might be open to taking a fight with someone ranked below him. Matt and Brett close the show by previewing the rest of the card on UFC 275, including the UFC Flyweight showdown between Manel Kape and Rogerio Bontorin, and the featured bout of the prelims between UFC Middleweights Brendan Allen and Jacob Malkoun.
