SleepyJ and Mean Gene talk UFC 324 betting. UFC 324 marks the promotion's return after a six week hiatus, with the first event airing on Paramount Plus from T Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. SleepyJ and Mean Gene break down the card with a betting focused lens, highlighting the platform shift, earlier start times, and a main card built around recognizable names and divisional stakes. The headliner features Justin Gaethje against Patti Pimlett, a matchup framed as a defining test for Pimlett and a potential final run moment for Gaethje. Both hosts lean toward Pimlett, citing his grappling strength, confidence, and recent performance, with expectations that the fight ends inside the distance by submission or stoppage. They note Gaethje's power and durability but question his long term resilience after years of high damage bouts and recent retirement talk. The co main event pits Sean O Malley against Song Yidong following the cancellation of the originally planned Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunez fight. O Malley is viewed as a motivated contender looking to re enter the title picture, with his striking precision, reach, and movement expected to exploit Song's defensive openings. Both analysts believe the betting line undervalues O Malley and anticipate either a knockout or a decisive performance that positions him for another championship opportunity. On the rest of the main card, Natalia Silva is favored heavily over Rose Namajunas, with volume, pace, and trajectory cited as key factors. Silva is described as a future title challenger, while Namajunas is respected for her résumé but seen as struggling against the division's emerging elite. The heavyweight bout between Waldo Cortez Acosta and Derrick Lewis draws divided opinions, with SleepyJ preferring a fight ending inside the distance while Mean Gene takes a plus money shot on Lewis, emphasizing heavyweight volatility and knockout power. The prelim headliner features Umar Nurmagomedov against Davidson Figueredo, where Nurmagomedov is expected to make a statement following a recent loss, with both hosts favoring a finish rather than a decision. Overall, UFC 324 is presented as a strong return card, blending divisional clarity, betting value, and potential star building moments as the UFC enters a new broadcast era.

It's happening. The Paramount+ Era is upon us. What surprises are in store? We'll find out on Saturday, as UFC 324 goes down, featuring the interim lightweight championship fight between Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett. How does Pimblett (more than a 2-to-1 favorite) beat Gaethje? We're not totally sure, but maybe that's why we're dumb podcast hosts and the oddsmakers are the oddsmakers. Plus, Kayla Harrison's pile-of-trash neck forced her off this card, which was kind of a big loss. And Conor McGregor says his UFC contract is “void,” since pay-per-view doesn't exist anymore. Could he be… right? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Busy Thursday as we get ready for the colder temps to move in along with the snow! Should start sometime this afternoon & continue through tomorrow. In the news this morning, actor Timothy Busfield recently turned himself in to authorities after allegations of child sexual abuse and now he's facing new charges involving a 16 year-old girl, an ICE agent was attacked in Minneapolis yesterday & shot a man in the leg, Verizon has resolved it's outage from yesterday and has promised to provide account credits to it's customers, a man who heckled President Trump at a Ford factory has been suspended from his job…but a GoFundMe for him has already raised almost a million dollars, and a recall on Super Greens dietary supplements. In sports, the Bucks take on the Spurs tonight, the Badger men's basketball team face Rutgers on Saturday, a look at the NFL Divisional Round schedule, the College Football National Championship game is on Monday night between Miami & Indiana, Adam Theilen officially announced his retirement yesterday, and it looks like John Harbaugh is going to be the next head coach for the Giants. We let you know what's on TV today/tonight and we also discussed a list of "nearly perfect" comedy films and added a few more of our own. Cool story about an influencer who goes to farmer's markets to highlight local vendors and completely changed the life of a mom-&-pop beef jerky brand from Texas! And speaking of snacks, we looked at Instacart's list of the Top 10 Super Bowl snacks. If you're looking for something Super Bowl-esque, Cup Noodles is releasing three chicken wing-inspired flavors just in time for the big game. It's Hypothetical Thursday and Brian went first with his question, "Would you rather have constant diarrhea or constant constipation?" Jean asked, "Which Boston sports team would you pick to win a championship?" Elsewhere in sports, the UFC Bantamweight Championship fight between Kayla Harrison & Amanda Nunes at next weekend's UFC 324 has been postponed, a bunch of money & guns were stolen from Greg Biffle's home just weeks after his tragic death in a plane crash, and a high school football team is cancelling it's next season after it went winless….and scoreless for an entire season this year! Office Cora joined us just after 8am to talk about what she's up to this weekend in the 715. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman who found an interesting charge on her Chick-Fil-A receipt, a stranger who knocked on someone's door at midnight and asked them to make a pizza, a mom in the UK who made her kids pay for their own McDonald's, and a #FloridaWoman who tried to avoid being arrested by shitting on the cops.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's episode of Good Guy / Bad Guy, Chael & DC continue the conversation centered around the new UFC Middleweight champion, Khamzat Chimaev. Following his win vs Dricus Du Plessis, Khamzat told Chael that he should be the #1 Pound-4-Pound fighter in the UFC… Well, he came in at #4 this week, so do the guys believe that is the correct ranking or should he be higher? Khamzat Chimaev. Merab Dvalishvili. Kayla Harrison. These are just a few names that are UFC champions and their background is in wrestling. So that got DC + Chael thinking… Are we in the “era of the wrestler” in the UFC right now? Plus, what is the biggest fight the UFC can make right now; Khamzat vs Islam or Islam vs Ilia? Sticking with matchmaking, with two big fights booked at middleweight, who will come out the #1 contender?

Jim Norton and guest co-host Din Thomas are joined by MMA legend Bas Rutten for a lively recap of UFC 316. Din gives props to Bas for his unique insight into both the streetfighting mindset and high-level martial arts, setting the stage for Bas to break down what stood out most on the card — including how Joshua Van reminds him of a young Max Holloway. Bas has so much fun he sticks around when UFC bantamweight champ Kayla Harrison calls in. She reflects on her Olympic roots, the emotions behind her recent victory, and whether a showdown with Amanda Nunes might be on the horizon.
UFC 316 is in the books, and despite the MMA community feeling somewhat indifferent about the fight card on paper, the most recent UFC pay-per-view event delivered big moments, and certainly a lot to discuss in the fallout — including dominant championship finishes for UFC champs Merab Dvalishvili and, the UFC's newest titleholder Kayla Harrison. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to UFC 316, Dvalishvili's sensational performance against Sean O'Malley, and discuss if Dvalishvili is the bantamweight GOAT, and if not, what he needs to do to get there. Additionally, topics include Harrison's submission win over Julianna Pena to claim the women's bantamweight title, how massive the potential fight with Amanda Nunes is after their staredown on Saturday night, Patchy Mix losing a lopsided decision, his reaction to the loss, and where the performance ranks in letdowns for UFC debuts, UFC Atlanta, PFL Nashvillie, and more. Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and our old friend Shaheen Al-Shatti.

Merab Dvalishvili continued his dominate run in the Bantamweight division with his submission victory over Sean O'Malley at UFC 316 in a title rematch. He continues to get better with age and the fellas ponder how he can be stopped. Kayla Harrison claimed the Women's Bantamweight title defeating Julianna Peña via submission. Amanda Nunes could be next for Harrison in a highly-anticipated superfight. Patchy Mix made an underwhelming UFC debut against Mario Bautista. Is this proof that there's a huge gap between the UFC and every other MMA promotion or was Mix just outmatched? Plus drama with Keyshawn Davis after he didn't make weight and was stripped of his title when his match against Edwin De Los Santos was canceled. To top it off, he was ejected from the arena where his brother Kelvin Davis had just fought against Nahir Albright, after allegedly assaulting Albright post-match. Can Keyshawn Davis ever recover from this dreadful weekend? And Dana White revealed that Jon Jones already accepted the fight against Tom Aspinall. Will the fight actually go down this calendar year?

With UFC 316 just days away, Matt and Jim welcome two fighters making their second appearances on Unfiltered: rising flyweight Joshua Van and heavy-hitting welterweight Khaos Williams. Kicking things off, Matt finally gets to meet 23-year-old prospect Joshua Van after missing his debut episode — and wastes no time bonding over Bruce Lee movies before breaking down Van's upcoming clash with veteran Bruno Silva. Focused and self-aware, Joshua explains why he's preparing for the best version of Silva — knowing how dangerous a fighter can be coming off a loss. In the middle of the show, the guys dive into the UFC 316 card — sharing thoughts on the title fights between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O'Malley, and Julianna Peña vs. Kayla Harrison — plus Kelvin Gastelum's return, Patchy Mix's Octagon debut, and Kevin Holland's wild schedule. Matt and Jim each make three official fight picks heading into Saturday's stacked show. Then it's time to catch up with Khaos Williams, who joins ahead of his short-notice bout against UFC newcomer Andreas Gustafsson. The welterweight striker reflects on his turbulent path — from getting jumped and stabbed in his younger years to a life-changing entry into MMA. Now 31, Khaos talks about staying grounded by embracing risk, investing in real estate, and focusing on long-term growth both in and out of the cage.
