Summary

With UFC 296 just a few days away, the storylines are aplenty heading into the UFC's final fight card of the year, including the welterweight championship main event between Leon Edwards and Colby Covington. Where does Edwards go with a win? Where does the division go if Covington claims his first undisputed championship? On an all-new edition of Between the Links, it's a special fan Q&A edition as MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew discuss the potential fallout of Saturday's championship headliner. Additionally, the panel will answer questions such as Ian Machado Garry being scratched from his matchup with Vicente Luque due to illness, Tony Ferguson vs. Paddy Pimblett, Belal Muhammad serving as the backup fighter for the main event and what that means, Shavkat Rakhmonov looking to keep his incredible undefeated run alive against Stephen Thompson, Jake Paul vs. Andre August having absolutely no buzz at all, and more.
