Summary

With UFC 296 officially in the books, Matt Serra and Jim Norton use today’s episode to recap all that happened during this past weekend’s final pay-per-view of the 2023 schedule with welterweight contender Belal Muhammad serving as today’s guest co-host. Matt and Jim begin the show by recapping their UFC 296 watch party and diving straight into the main event, where Matt makes it quite known how he feels about the manner in which Colby Covington lost in the main event title fight to UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards. Shortly thereafter, Belal joins in on the conversation to share his perspective as the man who weighed in as last weekend’s emergency backup fighter for the main event. After a full-fledged recap of Saturday’s main card, Belal sparks the cat out of the bag that he has some stand-up material saved in his phone — which piques Matt and Jim’s curiosity and ultimately ends up with Belal sharing a funny portion from his UFC-themed stand-up set.
