Summary
With just a few days until Saturday’s stacked UFC 290 card, Matt Serra and Jim Norton use today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered to talk to former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler and fast-rising middleweight prospect Bo Nickal.
Lawler reveals the keys to his longevity as he reflects on his legendary UFC career, reminiscing on some classic fights and mutual opponents he shared with Matt before finally giving his thoughts on Saturday’s retirement fight against Niko Price.
The guys then make their picks for UFC 290’s main event before Bo Nickal hops on the show to explain how receiving a late-notice opponent for Saturday’s main card bout is not much different from the way he found out who he’d face in wrestling tournaments.
Jim and Matt also answer a few fan-submitted questions before finalizing their predictions for Saturday’s International Fight Week card!
