Thursday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!
Episode 2,991 of the podcast looks ahead to UFC on ESPN+ 19 this Saturday in Tampa, Fla., as well as reaction to the latest news and notes in MMA. The guys also discuss their visit to the Tyson Ranch for Dominance MMA media day earlier this week.
The rundown
- What to make of the Joanna Jedrzejczyk weight-cut rumors? Is she really struggling to get down to 116 pounds? Has Michelle Waterson overplayed her hand ahead of their UFC Tampa headliner? Was the UFC being fair in this situation to entertain the idea of making a catchweight bout on last-minute notice? The guys have thoughts on all of this.
- Suddenly, there’s a little bit of drama between Kron Gracie and Cub Swanson ahead of their UFC Tampa co-main event? That’s interesting.
- Will the feud between Jon Jones and Israel Adesanya eventually lead to a fight between them? How interested are we?
- Khabib Nurmagomedov saying he’s targeting a title defense with Tony Ferguson to take place early next year in Russia. That is music to our ears.
- About that trip to Tyson Ranch for Dominance MMA media day, it was … interesting catching up Henry Cejudo, Kamaru Usman and so many more.
