Episodes
  • Ep.53 - MMA talks - Silicone based gains - Barber comes in (top) heavy
    Jun 4 2025

    Righto, this week we’re back and unpacking the absolute stinker that was Blanchfield vs Barber — genuinely one of the worst cards in recent memory. Then we shift gears and preview UFC 316: Dvalishvili vs O’Malley, which thankfully looks like a ripper.

    We’ve also got all the latest MMA bits and pieces, including:

    • Still no real movement on Jones vs Aspinall… or is there?

    • McGregor’s footy team actually won something — and now the bloke’s flogging cigars

    • Suga Sean’s been rolling with Mighty Mouse to prep for Merab (smart move tbh)

    • There’s a petition floating around to strip Jon Jones — and it’s picking up steam

    • Ian Garry’s out there mentoring the next gen, which somehow makes him slightly less annoying

    • BJ Penn’s been nicked again — this time for “harassment”

    • Paulo Costa continues to be the weirdest superhero ever

    • Noche UFC (UFC 320) might be off — classic

    • UFC debutants now rocking patches on their shorts like it’s the Olympics or something

    • Aspinall signs with Champion, Jones apparently knocked back the fight after getting paid

    • Conor begging to get on Rogan (again, yawn)

    • Barber misses weight for reasons that are… let’s just say obvious

    • Paddy and Arman having a bit of a sook back and forth

    • Ghost pepper bets are on, insults are flying, and Sandman brings the laughs

    Plus: Khabib meets IShowSpeed, listener questions, war on terror chat (?!) and all the usual banter.

    Chuck it on, have a laugh, and stay up to date with the chaos that is MMA.

  • Ep. 52 MMA Talks - Jon Jones aint fighting again. UFC Burns vs Morales Recap
    May 25 2025

    G’day legends! Back again for another ripper episode, and this week we’re unpacking the Burns vs Morales scrap — bit of a sleeper on paper, but turned out to be a proper banger. We break down the fight, what it means for both blokes moving forward, and who’s knocking on the door next.

    We also get stuck into the latest MMA headlines, including:

    • Francis Ngannou’s motorbike accident — was the hospital paid off?

    • Ilia Topuria and Islam Makhachev having a cheeky little war of words on X (Twitter). Bit of fire there — could be building to something big.

    • Jon Jones… mate, he’s not too keen on the Tom Aspinall fight by the looks of it. Seems like he’s more interested in pad thai and beach days in Thailand. Fair play, but what’s next for the heavyweight king?

    • Merab Dvalishvili busting his toe two weeks out from fighting Sean O’Malley. Bit of bad luck or a serious issue? We break it down.

    Plus we run through the latest fight announcements and a few matchups that caught our eye.

    Crack open a cold one, chuck us in your ears, and let’s talk fights. Cheers for tuning in, you bloody legends!

  • Ep. 51 MMA talks - JDM AND NEW, Aussie gets it done, UFC 315 recap
    May 14 2025

    Alright legends, in this week’s ep I break down Jack Della Maddalena’s absolute clinic at UFC 315 — what a weapon! We also get stuck into the big news around Islam Makhachev vacating his lightweight belt and the rumour mill firing up about a potential scrap with JDM. Plus, we dive into the drama out of B-Team with JayRod getting the boot — yep, we’re talking what went down and why he’s no longer repping the squad. Bit of fight talk, bit of gossip, all the good stuff. Tune in!
