Summary

Matt Serra and Jim Norton reunite for a Wednesday episode of UFC Unfiltered that sees the two chop it up with 8th-ranked UFC women’s flyweight Amanda Ribas and country musician Michael Ray ahead of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night: Ribas vs. Namajunas card at the APEX in Las Vegas. Matt begins the show with his best attempt at humbly bragging about dominating Jim in the head-to-head fight predictions battle between the two co-hosts.

Shortly after, the guys invite Amanda Ribas onto the show to hear the Brazilian veteran’s thoughts on what it means to finally be headlining a UFC card. Ahead of her first-ever UFC main event, Amanda discusses her thoughts on bouncing back and forth between flyweight and strawweight and why she’s expecting the very best version of Rose Namajunas as the two prepare for an all-action fight at 125 pounds. Not too long after Amanda’s interview ends, country music star and UFC superfan Michael Ray joins the show to reflect on his MMA fandom while talking about his friendship with various UFC fighters. As the conversation shifts to Michael’s music career, the guys talk in depth about the state of the music industry and how Michael has adjusted his strategy of releasing hit records like the one he just dropped two weeks ago called “Nothin’ Else”. Finally, Jim and Matt wrap up the show with three fight picks from atop Saturday night’s card.
