Monday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!
Episode 2,988 of the podcast includes reaction to a huge weekend of MMA fights that began Friday with Bellator 227/Bellator Europe 4 and continued on Saturday with UFC on ESPN+ 18 and Bellator 228. The guys also discuss the latest MMA news and notes.
The rundown
- Is Bellator featherweight A.J. McKee becoming a legit star? Hard to argue otherwise after he stayed unbeaten with an 8-second knockout at Bellator 228.
- What does Bellator do with Benson Henderson now that he’s on a four-fight winning streak following his unanimous decision over Myles Jury?
- Who saw a beef between Michael Page and referee Dan Mirgliota coming? How should that situation be handled?
- Bellator featherweight grand prix selection show: Loved it or hated it?
- Jared Cannonier has announced himself as a threat in the UFC middleweight division. What comes next after his TKO win over Jack Hermansson at UFC on ESPN+ 18?
- Holly Holm pulled out of UFC 243 a week before her fight with Raquel Pennington on Saturday’s card in Melbourne. That’s a bummer. Is that a big hit to the card?
- Finally, Kamaru Usman vs. Colby Covington has been booked, and it’ll happen Dec. 14 at UFC 245. But are you still pumped for this welterweight title fight after everything it took to get here?
