Summary

I'm all fired up on today's show. Here's what I discuss:

  • Khabib Nurmagomedov's top 15 pound-for-pound rankings of all time and the two major issues I have with his list (00:58)
  • Dustin Poirier's cryptic tweet about his next fight ... so naturally I give him a phone call mid-show (14:47)
  • Dana White's criticism of Merab Dvalishvili and why I believe Merab needs my help ASAP (30:45)
  • Henry Cejudo's claim that Aljamain Sterling vs. Sean O'Malley "only" did 350,000 PPV buys and what we should make of this (40:25)
  • My brilliant idea for sweetening the pot at next month's UFC 293 (46:44)

Plus, I give Ciryl Gane some love ahead of his UFC Paris main event (1:07:35) and I shut down this Brock Lesnar at UFC 300 nonsense (1:16:12).

this week.

Kabeeb, you're welcome, man. Let's put out a list. His top 15 fighters of all time. Now I got a big

1:02.8

problem with this. As a matter of fact, I got two problems with it. One's named Connor McGregor

1:07.2

and one is named Kabeeb himself. I'm going to get that in a minute. I want to start with

1:12.9

a prop to whoever got this list from Kabeeb. I mean, don't forget, when Kabeeb retired

Eagle FC was running. Don't forget, Islam Michael Chev was the champion of the world drawing

into Volkanovsky, the number one ranked guy in the world. Kabeeb said him out and he met it.

1:35.1

He did not show up to events. He did not show up into the practice room. He went and did something

1:40.4

else in life and I'm so interested in Kabeeb. I find it to be such a fascinating character that

1:45.2

somebody got to him and got him to put out a list. I like to tell that person good job. Let's start

1:50.0

at Kabeeb's number 15. He put a tie. Dominic Cruz and Frankie Edgar and that is a very interesting
