Summary

It’s a loaded Wednesday on UFC Unfiltered as Jim and Matt welcome two top-10 UFC contenders and gear up for Saturday’s UFC Fight Night card in Abu Dhabi! First, 7th-ranked lightweight Mateusz Gamrot joins the show just two months after his dominant win over Ludovit Klein. The American Top Team standout reflects on teammate Dustin Poirier’s recent retirement before unpacking his place in the stacked lightweight division’s current logjam at the top. Then, 7th-ranked middleweight Jared Cannonier jumps on to preview his August 16th bout with Michael “Venom” Page. Fresh off a 4th-round KO over "RoboCop" that snapped a 2-fight skid, Cannonier compares MVP’s style to prior opponents before ultimately putting on his analyst hat with a pick in this Saturday’s Whittaker vs. de Ridder main event. The guys wrap things up with three fight picks of their own for Saturday’s early-start Fight Night in Abu Dhabi.
