Petesy Carroll and Chuck Mindenhall are joined by Drake Riggs, who is on site in Seattle for Cejudo vs. Song, to discuss a crazy week of news in the world of combat sports.
They first look at how Ilia Topuria’s vacation of the featherweight title has led to UFC 314 getting it’s main event with Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes set to compete for gold (06:12), before the conversation switches to Paddy Pimblett’s biggest fight to date (22:16) versus Michael Chandler.
The discussion turns to the shake-up at welterweight that saw Jack Della-Maddalena granted a title shot against champion Belal Muhammad (40:32), with Sean Brady stepping in to replace him in his previously announced bout against Leon Edwards in London.
On the back of the conversation on yesterday’s BITB show, the lads consider Ric’s comment on the obvious size difference that will exist between Islam Makhachev and Ilia Topuria should their clash happen (48:51).
Finally, Riggs gives insight on the biggest storylines in Seattle (1:00:00) before Mindenhall discusses whether the short notice replacements have effected Saturday’s boxing blockbuster from Riyadh (1:07:00).
