Summary

Back from a weekend trip to San Diego for Bellator 300, I discuss the following on today's episode:

Why Bobby Green and Dan Hooker should fight for the next BMF title (00:48)
Conor McGregor has allegedly submitted his USADA paperwork, but what does that actually mean? (9:25)
An unexpected backup fighter selection for next week's UFC 294 main event between Islam Makhachev and Charles Oliveira (19:45)
Dillon Danis has showed up to England! But I've hardly seen any training footage, which gives me some weird vibes (29:13)
Jon Jones' preparation for UFC 295, the buildup to the fight, and why I hope he doesn't call it quits after his bout with Stipe Miocic (35:39)

Plus, my tales from baggage claim this weekend (46:55).
