MMA Junkie Radio #2998: UFC 244 madness with Masvidal-Diaz ‘BMF,’ Gastelum, Lee and more

Monday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!

On Episode 2,998 of the podcast, the guys look back at Saturday’s UFC 244 event, including Jorge Masvidal’s win over Nate Diaz for the “BMF” title; big wins for Till, Thompson and Lee; Kelvin Gastelum’s weigh-in tricks; and more.

The rundown

  • Was the stoppage in the Masvidal-Diaz fight justified, or should it have gone on longer?
  • What should come next for Masvidal now that he has three straight impressive wins at welterweight?
  • Should the “BMF” title belt return, or fade away into the sunset as a one-time thing?
  • Donald Trump attended UFC 244, and his team’s claims about how much love he got differed from videos posted online. Do you want to see him attend another event?
  • Kelvin Gastelum was rumored to be struggling with his cut to middleweight this past Friday. Then video showed some potential shenanigans with a cornermen perhaps helping him get under the limit. Did he cheat?
  • Kevin Lee got a huge win over the previously unbeaten Gregor Gillespie with a head kick knockout. What does that do for his lightweight title aspirations?
  • Did MMA pick up a win over boxing in the court of public opinion when UFC 244’s main event was shown inside MGM Grand Garden Arena before the Canelo boxing match?
  • A look back at Invicta FC’s Friday night event.
