Summary
Brian Campbell and UFC Hall of Famer "Suga" Rashad Evans look at the fallout from a wild UFC 249 card, including Justin Gaethje's breakthrough win and Henry Cejudo's retirement (24:43).

The guys preview Wednesday's UFC Fight Night card in Jacksonville (1:13:50) and Bellator heavyweight Matt Mitrione stops by to relive his run through the Grand Prix heavyweight tournament (57:05).
