of your welcome. Well guys, the week that all of us have been waiting for is finally here.

0:19.2

I'm happy to say that UFC 281 will go down at Madison Square Garden in just a matter of days.

0:26.0

Coming up on today's program, I'm going to discuss Israel Adesonium versus Alex P.R.

0:31.2

for a number of different angles. Plus, I want to tell you guys what will homo-homot just

0:37.6

said about Hosmet Shamayo. And before we get there, I want to begin today's show by telling you

0:43.4
