Summary

Brian Campbell and UFC Hall of Famer Rashad Evans give you a full recap of UFC 251: Usman vs. Masvidal. Is Kamaru Usman severely underrated? Will Kamaru Usman continue to train with Trevor Whitman? Who should the fans blame for what they consider a "boring" fight? Is the UFC pay structure to blame? Who deserves the next shot at Kamaru Usman's welterweight title (1:30)? Alexander Volkanovski retains his title in a controversial decision over Max Holloway. Does MMA scoring need to change? Should they push even farther into the boxing scoring system with 1 point awarded for a knockdown? Should the UFC go back to the old Pride scoring system (29:20)? Petr Yan impressed everyone at UFC 251, but who should be his first title defense? Why wouldn't Dana White commit that Aljamain Sterling is next in line for Yan's title? Could Henry Cejudo come back and challenge Petr Yan (36:30)? Rose Namajunas faced her demons and defeated Jessica Andrade in their rematch. Is Rose Namajunas next in line for Weili Zhang's title (39:35)? Amanda Ribas defeats Paige Vanzant and said she wants to drop back down to Strawweight... but is that the right decision? Should Ribas be trying to make a run at the Women's Flyweight title (41:15)? Dan Ige is headlining UFC Fight Night Kattar-Ige and he stops by the podcast to discuss his upcoming fight. Are we underestimating Dan Ige in this matchup (45:30)? Finally the guys break down the rest of the UFC Fight Night Kattar-Ige card (1:02:35). ---------------------------- 'State of Combat' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox, Google Podcasts, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
