Summary

Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit straight up did the damn thing last weekend at UFC 195, Universe. These two evenly matched welterweights put it all on the line for 25 minutes of greuling MMA action and emerged … well … they emerged more or less as equal as before the fight started. That’s not optimal, but it was sure fun to watch. On this week’s Co-Main Event Podcast, Ben and Chad look back on the awesomeness of Condit-Lawler and then look ahead to try to figure out exactly what the UFC will do now at 170-pounds. In addition to that, they ponder fondly the weird spectacle that was Rizin Fighting Federation’s inaugural events and try to figure out exactly what’s on deck for Fedor Emelianenko. All that, plus AYFKM, Just Sayin’ Stuff and MasterTweet Theatre. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:40.1	how are you doing this week neurologically? Oh, neurologically? Yeah, neurologically speaking.
0:46.4	Neurologically, I'm fine. Okay, good. Because other than that... Every other sense of the word,
0:50.7	terrible. Yeah, just bruised and battered all over.
0:56.4	Neurologically, though, you were never hurt.
1:00.9	The minute I heard Carlos Condit say that he was neurologically never hurt in that fight, I was like, I'm guessing that's going to be a line that resonates with Chad Dundas.
1:06.1	And it was.
1:06.5	And it was.
1:07.3	And it was.
1:07.4	And that line, that line, if you didn't know before, really made
1:12.8	you realize how unfair it is, right?
1:15.0	To ask someone, how hurt were you there or how hurt were you in this fight?
1:19.7	And I feel like, though Carlos Conn, it seemed like he tried to answer the question, honestly.
1:24.8	He also simultaneously, like, figured out the best way to answer that
1:29.4	question and to, like, reinforce its silliness.
1:32.7	Yeah.
1:33.2	Well, and I think, you know, it kind of...
