Summary

If we’re being honest, there’s just too much stuff to talk about during this week’s Co-Main Event podcast. Saturday night’s UFC Fight Night 36 produced dueling middleweight contenders in Lyoto Machda and Jacare Souza, but there isn’t much time to dwell on it, with UFC 170 coming up this weekend. In the main event of that pay-per-view, Ronda Rousey will defend her women’s bantamweight championship against Sara McMann, while in the co-main Daniel Cormier fights random dude Patrick Cummins. Not only that, but with Dana White’s unhinged PEDs tirade, Gilbert Melendez agreeing to terms with Bellator and Chris Leben tiptoeing right up to the brink of a Twitter meltdown, Ben and Chad have quite enough to discuss, thank you very much.  All that, plus MasterTweet Theatre, AYFKM and Just Sayin’ Stuff.

You doing anything fun this holiday?

0:47.0

And the thing about the thing that kind of sucks about our jobs is I never even know about these holidays until I want to do something that's closed or the mail doesn't come or some shit like that. It's got no clue. I feel like I'm totally unplugged. Now, do you

0:58.8

remember when we were in grade school and they used to have the two holidays? There would be like

1:03.0

it was like Washington's birthday and Lincoln's birthday or something like that? Yes, I do remember

that. Then they, didn't they screw us? They took one of them away and now it's President's Day.
