Yes… that REALLY just happened! And if there is one thing we know, it's that the great Matt Serra knows a thing or two about dethroning a champion in a MAJOR upset! On today's episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim Norton and Matt Serra are joined by MMA coaching mastermind Sayif Saud of Fortis MMA — who helps the guys unpack just how newly-crowned UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland was able to shock the world by dethroning Israel Adesanya at UFC 293. With Strickland's win opening up a multitude of possibilities for the UFC's red-hot middleweight division, the guys mull over the idea of an immediate rematch while discussing whether Adesanya's high fight activity rate plays a factor in what the former champion will do next. Later on, Matt takes us from the top of the card on down with his favorite takeaways from the other fights that happened on this exciting pay-per-view card in Sydney. The guys wrap up the show by circling back to the stakes of Strickland's win and where it stacks up with the greatest championship upsets in UFC history.
Israel Adesanya is expected to defeat Sean Strickland at UFC 293 on Saturday as he is a massive favorite in the main event of the promotion's return to Sydney. Should he perform as the betting odds suggest, would Adesanya go on to face Dricus Du Plessis, or — should he defeat Paulo Costa at UFC 294 — Khamzat Chimaev? On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck discusses the potential matchmaking for Adesanya if he defeats Strickland on Saturday, if Du Plessis could get passed over for Chimaev, and Dana White's comments about Du Plessis earlier this week. Additionally, listener questions include the UFC 293 card and the lack of buzz behind it from top-to-bottom, what could be the Fight of the Night, the best and worst UFC pay-per-view lineups of the year to this point, when Leon Edwards vs. Colby Covington could happen, what the welterweight division could look like in six months, and more.

The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with UFC legend Matt Brown and MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin discussing the fallout from UFC Paris and looking ahead at UFC 293. Ciryl Gane got a big win in the main event at UFC Paris but did we learn anything about him that we didn't already know? Does he need to take on a top grappler like Tom Aspinall, Curtis Blaydes or Jailton Almedia to truly prove he's still an elite heavyweight? Plus we react to Rose Namajunas' debut at flyweight and the news that she plans to stay at 125 pounds for the future rather than making her return to the strawweight division. We'll also look ahead at UFC 293 and try to convince ourselves that Sean Strickland has a legitimate chance at upsetting Israel Adesanya. We'll also tease what could be next for Adesanya if he wins — a grudge match with Dricus Du Plessis or could Khamzat Chimaev present a more interesting matchup if he gets through Paulo Costa at UFC 294. Also following news that Paul Felder is plotting a potential comeback to the cage, Brown explains why it's so hard for fighters to actually stay retired from the sport.

After another thrilling card in Paris, I'm here to react to the action and I'm also going to give you a little sneak peek into Saturday's upcoming UFC 293. Here's what to expect on today's episode:Ciryl Gane performed beautifully on the cage, but terribly on the microphone (00:58)The first time I ever met Sean Strickland and whether I ever thought a kid like that would make it to a UFC title fight (21:22)If Israel Adesanya wins on Saturday, will he call out Dricus Du Plessis or the winner of Paulo Costa vs. Khamzat Chimaev? (30:32)I believe Marlon Vera is a guarantee to be Sean O'Malley's next opponent; the only question that's left is ... when will it happen?
