Jim Norton and Matt Serra kick off today's episode by unpacking the biggest takeaways from UFC Oklahoma City, including Dricus Du Plessis' bounce-back win over Kamaru Usman, what that result means for Sean Strickland's next title defense, and where Usman goes from here.Then, Chase Hooper joins the show fresh off his first-round submission win over Mitch Ramirez. Hooper walks the guys through his rear-naked choke, opens up about the pressure of entering a fight on back-to-back stoppage losses, and discusses how baby No. 2 being set to arrive at any given moment affects his timeline for his next fight.After more UFC Oklahoma City reaction — including Christian Leroy Duncan's rise, Fatima Kline's impressive win, and Tommy McMillen's splashy arrival — Alden Coria stops by following his win over Stewart Nicoll. Now 3-0 in the UFC, Coria explains to a curious Matt Serra how the rush of fighting in the Octagon compares to Coria's exhilarating experience of climbing hundreds of feet into the sky as a cell phone tower technician.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
A Marine officer, professional MMA fighter, and jiu-jitsu practitioner came home from his third combat deployment in Mosul and sat down at a table with a loaded Glock. His mother called his phone at the exact second he began to pull the trigger. Joe De Sena sits down with Lee Stuckey, founder of America's Heroes Enjoying Recreation Outdoors (AHERO), a nonprofit that has served over 13,000 veterans and stopped more than 600 suicides in 16 years. Lee breaks down how he rebuilt after nearly taking his own life, why he swapped every toxic relationship in his circle for someone healthy, and how a four-pillar framework became the structure that holds his life together. Things You Will Learn: Why controlling your environment and your circle changes your trajectory faster than willpower alone. The four-pillar framework Lee Stuckey uses to audit his physical, financial, emotional, and spiritual health every week. What a one-for-one relationship swap looks like and why it forces accountability into your daily life. Tools & Frameworks Covered: One-for-One Swap: Remove one parasitic or toxic relationship and deliberately replace it with someone who helps you grow across four pillars. Four-Pillar Weekly Audit: Physical, financial, emotional, spiritual. Sit down weekly with your family or team and assess each one. Get 1% better daily with a deliberate plan.

From surviving one of the darkest childhoods imaginable to becoming one of the most feared knockout artists in the UFC, this is the remarkable and unflinching life story of Drew McFedries.In Episode #339 of the MMA History Podcast, MMA Detective Mike Davis and Joey Venti sit down with former UFC middleweight contender Drew McFedries for one of the most powerful and honest interviews in the show's history. Drew opens up about growing up in a home destroyed by addiction and prostitution, where drug dealers and violent strangers constantly came through the house. As a young boy he became the protector for his younger brother and two little sisters, learning early that if he could not fight, the people he loved would pay the price. He discusses his mother's murder, being stabbed himself, and how every statistic suggested his life should have ended in prison, addiction, or an early grave.Instead, Drew walked into a gym and transformed into a devastating striker. The conversation explores his early days at the legendary Miletich Fighting Systems, the brutal sparring sessions, training alongside Matt Hughes and Robbie Lawler, and his rapid rise through Midwest tournaments. He shares stories from his first fights, the Lee Murray bout with no formal training, his battle with Crohn's disease that sidelined him for nearly a year, and his UFC debut on just 17 days notice against Alessio Sakara. Drew also reflects on key moments with fighters like Nate Quarry, Claude Patrick, Steve Dao, Tim Sylvia in his corner, and the unique challenges strikers faced in getting booked.Beyond the cage, this episode delves into deeper themes of survival, making different choices than the environment around him, family trauma, fatherhood considerations, and finding peace later in life through fishing, biking, and quiet reflection.This is far more than a typical fighter interview — it is a raw masterclass in resilience, personal accountability, and turning darkness into drive.Guest: Drew McFedriesEpisode: #339Fellow historians, welcome back to the only podcast 100 percent dedicated to preserving mixed martial arts history.Like and subscribe for more in-depth MMA stories direct from the fighters who lived them.

At six foot five and 118 kilos, Brando Peričić is one of the most physically imposing heavyweights in the UFC. But behind the fighter is a story most people never see, a story of an absent father, childhood bullying, depression, suicidal thoughts, and a young man who had every reason to fail, yet refused to. In this episode of I Catch Killers, Gary sits down with the Adelaide-born UFC heavyweight in a raw, honest, and deeply personal conversation that goes well beyond the octagon. Brando opens up about growing up in a Croatian household with a single mother working two jobs, a father who went to prison, and a childhood marked by anger, confusion, and pain he didn't know how to carry. From getting expelled in year 10 and working Adelaide's roughest pub doors, where he was stabbed, bottled, and coward punched, to sleeping in the gym while chasing a dream everyone told him was impossible, Brando's journey is as brutal as it is inspiring.
