Summary

The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with Matt Brown and Damon Martin discussing Max Holloway’s big win over Arnold Allen and what that means for his future at featherweight. Holloway earned a decision win to get back on track after falling to UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski in his previous outing. We’ll also talk about the news that the UFC wants to book Jon Jones against Stipe Miocic at Madison Square Garden in New York, presumably in November. If that fight gets finalized, does Miocic immediately become the biggest threat to Jones at heavyweight or is there still someone even better suited to hand Jones a defeat? We’ll also discuss the new fight announced between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz. Is Diaz biting off more than he can chew by taking on a fighter who will have a significant size advantage not to mention Paul’s experience in the boxing ring?
