About this listen

Alright legends, in this week’s episode I run through all the wild moments from UFC Fight Night Whittaker vs de Ridder. Bit of a weird one to be honest, but plenty to talk about.

We had Buday pulling off a huge upset in the heavyweight division, and Steve breaking the record for most knockdowns in a single round six in the first while poor Yahya somehow stayed in there way too long. Ricci lands a beauty of a KO, Davey Grant turns things around after a rough first round, and Muslim Salikhov with a clean walk off knockout, always love those.

Shara walks through fire to get the win (fight of the night for mine), Petr Yan starts slow but finishes strong, and Bryce Mitchell edges out Nurmagomedov in a tight one. Also, Krylov gets knocked out again, ASU Almabaev looked solid, and Ochoa’s someone I’m keen to see more from. Oh, and Reiner de Ridder, that goofy bastard, somehow sneaks a split decision over Bobby Knuckles. Don’t ask me how.

Also covering:
A quick look at UFC Taira vs Park
Fight announcements like Pico vs Lerone Murphy as the 319 co-main and Ulberg vs Reyes headlining UFC Perth, banger

Bit of news around the traps:
The Flack Forge Inn burned down (with Conor chiming in of course)
Pavlovich dodges JJ’s handshake
Shavkat’s family involved in a car crash, awful stuff
T-Ferg’s maths still not mathing
Costa getting chirpy online
And chat around a social media ban for under 16s , thoughts?

Cheers for tuning in. As always, give it a listen, share it around, and I’ll catch ya next week.
