Episode 312: Alex Pereira Cheated?

Brendan recaps his shows in Milwaukee over the weekend and responds to Joe Rogan’s recent assertion that Alex Pereira is "cheating" via extreme weight cutting before getting into the recent fight cards including Derrick Lewis’ last minute pullout of the UFC fight night main event against Sergey Spivak due to stomach issues, the replacement main event between Ion Cutelaba and Kennedy Nzechukwu, Christian Lee’s come from behind TKO over Kiamrian Abbasov for welterweight gold and double champ status in ONE championship on Prime Video 4, and Greg Hardy’s decision win over Hasim Rahman Jr as a last minute replacement for Vitor Belfort in their fight on the Misfits Boxing/DAZN card. He also previews the next big UFC PPV, where Jiří Procházka will defend his LHW belt for the first time in a rematch against Glover Teixeira, Jan Blachowicz will face Magomed Ankalaev in the common event, and Paddy Pimblet will take on Jared Gordon. Finally he reacts to some current events such as Conor McGregor’s suspiciously juicy physique, Alistair Overeem’s suspiciously juicy drug test results, Michael Chandler calling out Jorge Masvidal for the BMF belt, Dillon Danis getting punched by Anthony Taylor, and Khabib correcting Conor McGregor’s famous “take over” quote by claiming that Russian Dagestanis are the ones who actually took over MMA rather than the Irish. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
