Summary

After a flurry of fight announcements made by UFC President Dana White on Wednesday night, I discuss the following on today's episode: Leon Edwards and Colby Covington landing the coveted December PPV spot over the likes of superstars Sean O'Malley and Conor McGregor (00:53) The booking of Jiri Prochazka vs. Alex Pereira as the co-main event at UFC 295, and why this fight seems fishy to me (8:17) Israel Adesanya breaking his silence to say that he wants a "fun" fight next. What could that possibly mean? (17:27) Why last weekend's drama was the best thing to ever happen to Valentina Shevchenko (30:20) Plus, I talk about some top UFC heavyweights (39:28) before diving into tomorrow night's UFC main event between fan favorites Rafael Fiziev and Mateusz Gamrot (58:32).
