Summary
Jim and Matt have a lot to say about Saturday's fights, on everything from the unbelievable KO by Jorge Masvidal against Ben Askren, to the champ-champ Amanda Nunes, to who Jon Jones should fight next, and more.
Today, they're joined by the interim middleweight champ Israel Adesanya, who is going to fight for the undisputed belt in October against Robert Whittaker. Adesanya talks about Whittaker and Jon Jones teaming up to train, why some people prefer to do their trash talk online vs in person, and why he hopes to fight Whittaker in his home turf of Australia.
Next, Michael Chiesa joins the show to discuss his impressive welterweight win over Diego Sanchez, his future plans on who to fight, and a truly odd request he had to make in the middle of the fight against Sanchez.
