Show Notes
Top influencer boxing journalists Ariel Helwani, Petesy Carroll, and Chuck Mindenhall are finally back together to discuss a wide array of combat sports topics on today’s show. The guys get into:
- Neil Magny filling in for Geoff Neal at UFC 292 next week, and how the guys feel about the new matchup for rising star Ian Machado Garry (3:52)
- Dana White’s comments on Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson this week, and how ugly situations like this could be avoided in the future (9:45)
- The behind-the-scenes of booking Israel Adesanya vs. Sean Strickland for next month’s main event in Sydney, and whether it’s possible Dricus Du Plessis will miss his title shot window (24:47)
- Derrick Lewis’s decision to re-sign with the UFC and whether it’s a mistake (38:16)
Plus, the guys get into Fedor Emelianenko’s callout of Mike Tyson (gulp). They also wonder if the much-maligned Dillon Danis will actually show up to fight Logan Paul in October and whether a very lucrative boxing fight between Logan Paul and baby brother Jake looms on the horizon (49:10).
