Summary

In order to record this week’s episode of the CME, Ben interrupts a madcap schedule of dancing to indie rock bands and Chad pauses his white-knuckle wait for the birth of his son. Really, they have no choice. What, you thought they were going to ignore Old Man Dan Henderson’s big win over Tim Boetsch last Saturday at UFC Fight Night 68? You thought they might not catch the UFC announcing the very sort of drug testing program the CME has been asking for for years? You thought Cain Velasquez’s heavyweight title unification bout against Fabricio Werdum this weekend at UFC 188 might fly under their radar? Fat chance. The guys serve of an hour’s worth of sizzling hot MMA news and commentary just for you.  All that, plus AYFKM and Just Sayin’ Stuff. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

to get a, uh, kick-ass free fight night show was to make sure that, uh, you weren't going to be

around for it. Oh, is that how you think this works? Yeah, I've, I figured that you have been

0:48.5

the problem this whole time. Okay. Well, it seems, if nothing, scientific. It's a credit to you, I think, that you decided to sit this one out.

0:58.0

Well, you know, I do feel like the last time I think I missed a UFC event where I wasn't able to watch it live,

1:05.0

I had to go do something. I think it was when I was at my brother-in-law's wedding and Ben Rothwell was fighting Alistair Overeem.
