Summary

While it was a rare weekend off for the UFC, it was a very busy weekend in the combat sports world, with CJI 2, DBX 3, RAF 1, and stealing the headlines, Misfits Boxing 22 — which was capped off by Darren Till brutally knocking out Luke Rockhold. What was the standout moment from this past weekend, and what are the burning questions in the aftermath? On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel recaps the weekend that was, and answers your questions about standout moments. Additionally, topics may include Dana White announcing three big title fights for UFC 321 and UFC 322 — including Jack Della Maddalena vs. Islam Makhachev in the main event of UFC 322 at Madison Square Garden — the UFC returning to Paris this weekend for an event headlined by a pivotal middleweight matchup between Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho, Tony Ferguson getting his first win in over six years, and much more.
