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.

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.

Keith and Ben preview UFC 316 with detailed predictions and picks for all 13 fights. With a stacked card topped by two bantamweight title bouts, there wasn't as much side talk as usual, but the theme of unfair standards and double standards in MMA kept coming up. Those included: the distinction between a fighter's personal and professional appeal, the extra burden placed on stars from other promotions making their UFC debuts, and the way we forgive and forget questionable behavior by beloved fighters. Duffy also does a... so-so impression of a certain famous cage announcer.0:00 Intro: Get ready for Keith's betting reaction face8:33 MarQuel Mederos (10-1) vs. Mark Choinski (8-0)15:47 Quillan Salkilld (8-1) vs. Yanal Ashmouz (8-1)24:54 Kalinn Williams (15-4) vs. Andreas Gustafsson (11-2)37:09 Joo Sang Yoo (8-0) vs. Jeka Saragih (14-4)46:37 Ariane Lipski da Silva (17-10) vs. Cong Wang (7-1)55:05 Serghei Spivac (17-5) vs. Waldo Cortes-Acosta (13-1)1:09:34 Azamat Murzakanov (14-0) vs. Brendson Ribeiro (17-7, 1 NC)1:21:04 Bruno “Bulldog” Silva (14-6-2, 1 NC) vs. Joshua Van (13-2)1:31:12 Vicente Luque (23-10-1) vs. Kevin Holland (27-13, 1 NC)1:38:52 Mario Bautista (15-2) vs. Patrick “Patchy” Mix (20-1)1:55:32 Kelvin Gastelum (19-9, 1 NC) vs. Joe Pyfer (13-3)2:09:46 Julianna Pena (12-5) vs. Kayla Harrison (18-1)2:34:55 Merab Dvalishvili (19-4) vs. Sean O'Malley (18-2, 1 NC)2:59:31 A quick rundown of all the picks

Keith and Ben preview UFC 311, which is—on paper at least—an immediate frontrunner for the best event we'll see all year. Alongside detailed predictions and picks for all 14 fights, there are occasional side conversations on such diverse topics as elementary school brawls, Bo Nickal, and an alternate theory on why Khabib Nurmagomedov got kicked off that airplane.0:00 Intro: Best wishes for the City of Angels5:54 Tagir Ulanbekov (15-2) vs. Clayton Carpenter (8-0)14:32 Ricky Turcios (12-4) vs. Bernardo Sopai (11-3)24:44 Rinya Nakamura (9-0) vs. Muin Gafurov (19-6)33:46 Karol Rosa (18-6) vs. Ailin Perez (11-2)46:29 Grant Dawson (22-2-1) vs. Diego Ferreira (19-5)59:42 Zachary Reese (8-1) vs. Sedriques Dumas (10-2)1:09:45 Jailton Almeida (21-3) vs. Serghei Spivac (17-4)1:23:02 Payton Talbott (9-0) vs. Raoni Barcelos (18-5)1:34:24 Bogdan Guskov (16-3) vs. Billy Elekana (7-1)1:43:11 Kevin Holland (26-12, 1 NC) vs. Reinier de Ridder (18-2)1:56:29 Beneil Dariush (22-6-1) vs. Renato Carneiro (20-5-1)2:12:29 Jiri Prochazka (30-5-1) vs. Jamahal Hill (12-2, 1 NC)2:27:46 Merab Dvalishvili (18-4) vs. Umar Nurmagomedov (18-0) 2:46:36 Islam Makhachev (26-1) vs. Arman Tsarukyan (22-3)
Le "Bon Gamin" est de retour. Et on avait très hâte de le revoir. Quinze mois après sa dernière apparition dans l'octogone, une démonstration de force face à Serghei Spivac qui lui avait permis d'oublier un peu la désillusion express face à Jon Jones, Ciryl Gane revient aux affaires pour un choc revanche face au Russe Alexander Volkov, qu'il avait battu en 2021 sur la route de son titre intérimaire des lourds. Avec un gros enjeu : se placer en seul candidat légitime pour affronter Tom Aspinall, l'actuel champion intérimaire de la catégorie qui pourrait être promu vrai champion si Jones lâche la ceinture. Va-t-on revivre le même combat ? Volkov a-t-il assez évolué pour embêter Gane ? Le RMC Fighter Club fait les présentations du combat le plus attendu de l'UFC 310 côté français. Sans oublier un focus sur l'invité surprise de cet événement à Las Vegas : le Japonais Kai Asakura, qui va tenter de prendre la couronne des -57 kilos à Alexandre Pantoja pour ses débuts dans la plus grande organisation de MMA au monde.
On today's episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim Norton and Matt Serra are joined by unbeaten welterweight prospect Danny Barlow after his win over the weekend before extending the invite to a longtime friend of the show in actor Aleks Paunovic. Fresh off his second win in the UFC, Barlow talks about the learning curve required to get off to a fast 9-0 start in his young career. The Memphis native goes on to explain how the first Creed movie ultimately inspired him to embark on a new journey in MMA after previous dreams of chasing a career in professional basketball. Later on, the guys bring Aleks Paunovic back on the show — who fills Jim and Matt in on his latest acting and business ventures before wrapping things up with a chat about the breathtaking visuals they're hoping to see at the Sphere when the UFC brings UFC 306 to a venue that is truly one-of-a-kind.

Serghei Spivac bounced back in the win column impressively as he became the first fighter to ever submit Marcin Tybura in the main event of UFC Vegas 95 — while getting back one of his early UFC losses in the process. Following the quick submission win, where does Spivac go, and was it enough to save one of the toughest-to-watch fight cards of the year? MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Eric Jackman react to Saturday's Fight Night event at the APEX, Spivac's tremendous performance, and Jailton Almeida calling him out post-fight. Additionally, topics include whether or not the event was the UFC's worst of the year, the bright spots on the card including Youssef Zalal, the awful scorecard in Danny Barlow's split decision win over Nikolay Veretennikov, and much more.

Serghei Spivac made quick work of the durable veteran Marcin Tybura in the main event of UFC Vegas 95 this past Saturday night at the UFC APEX. After the win, Spivac didn't have a specific name in mind, but called for someone ranked higher, and then Jailton Almeida issued a callout of his own to Spivac. Is that the way to go for "Polar Bear" after a bounce back win? On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what could be next for Spivac after becoming the first fighter to submit Tybura. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Chepe Mariscal after his dominant decision win over Damon Jackson in the co-main event, Danny Barlow after defeating Nikolay Veretennikov, along with fellow main card winners Chris Gutierrez, Yana Santos, Toshiomi Kazama, and more.

On today's episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim and Matt are joined by a pair of fighters on this Saturday's card in featherweight Youssef Zalal and heavyweight Karl Williams. Energized by his current streak of four straight stoppages, Youssef calls in ahead of his fight against Jarno Errens to discuss how he has rebuilt his game after his first stint in the UFC ended with him getting cut. When Karl Williams calls in, the rising heavyweight talks about how his background as a state champion in the 100 meter dash and collegiate football defensive end shaped him into an athlete that has since taken MMA on full-time. To wrap up the show, Jim and Matt circle back to last weekend's bantamweight action, where they assess what matchups we could see next after the release of the most recent rankings. Finally, the guys wrap up the show by predicting the winner of this Saturday's main event rematch between Marcin Tybura and Serghei Spivac.

Israel Adesanya returns to the UFC octagon on Saturday when he defends his middleweight title against Sean Strickland in the main event of UFC 293, a fight that is doing a lot of heavy lifting heading into the promotion's return to Australia.

Additionally, they'll grade UFC 293 as a whole, the fallout of UFC Paris this past Saturday, what's next for Ciryl Gane after stopping Serghei Spivac, as well as Rose Namajunas following her flyweight debut loss to Manon Fiorot, Dana White commenting about a lot of different topics over the past week or so, and much more.

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?

Back from a week-long vacation, Jim Norton reunites with his good friend Matt Serra for a fun episode of UFC Unfiltered featuring women's flyweight contender Erin Blanchfield! An excited Matt Serra starts off the show by bringing Jim up to speed on all the things the comedian missed while out of town. The conversation then shifts to a recap of UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Spivac, where Matt and Jim start at the top of the card with their takeaways from Ciryl Gane's TKO win over Serghei Spivac in front of his hometown fans in Paris. Jim and Matt then explore whether the outcome of Saturday's co-main event would've differed if Rose Namajunas hadn't injured her finger against Manon Fiorot in the first round of their women's flyweight co-main event. That same conversation about the women's 125-pound division continues when the guys are joined by second-ranked women's flyweight Erin Blanchfield, who breaks down Fiorot's performance against Namajunas before ultimately stating her own case to fight the winner of this month's highly anticipated rematch between women's flyweight champion Alexa Grasso and former long-reigning champion Valentina Shevchenko.
With Jim Norton out for the day, friend of the show Phoenix Carnevale reprises her role as a guest co-host alongside Matt Serra for an episode of UFC Unfiltered that features two guest callers in bantamweight Caolán Loughran and actor Louis Mandylor. Set to make his UFC debut on this Saturday's card in Paris, Loughran explains how a last minute switch of opponent hasn't changed his all-business mindset going into a fight in hostile territory against French veteran Taylor Lapilus. The unbeaten Irish bantamweight then goes on to explain why he believes he'll be the next UFC champion to come out of the Cage Warriors promotion. Shortly thereafter, Matt and Phoenix are joined by actor and director Louis Mandylor; a former professional boxer in his own right. The Australian actor surprises the two co-hosts with his vast UFC knowledge and ultimately weighs in on Saturday's card with his opinion on how French heavyweight Ciryl Gane can overcome his grappling deficiencies against a Sambo specialist like Serghei Spivac in the main event. Fresh off the mid-August release of his action film '3 Days In Malay', Louis wraps up his interview by sharing how serving as director of the film featuring Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone and Quinton "Rampage" Jackson sparked two newfound friendships with the retired UFC fighters. Finally, Matt and Phoenix wrap up the show by looking at some of the fights on Saturday's card!
