Summary

After nearly a month away, the UFC is back to kick off their 2025 with a return to the world's most famous APEX in Las Vegas for UFC Vegas 101 headlined by a rematch between Amanda Ribas and Mackenzie Dern. But that's not all going on in the UFC and MMA news cycle in this new year. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses Joe Rogan saying Jon Jones is asking for $30 million to fight Tom Aspinall and what's real, and what isn't. Additionally, topics include the UFC Seattle main event between Henry Cejudo and Song Yadong, former champion Dominick Cruz's return — and possibly final fight — set in the co-main event against Rob Font, Saturday's UFC Fight Night event and what is at stake in the headliner, other news and notes, and much more. Also, a big announcement regarding next week's programming. Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and Guilherme Cruz.
