Thursday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!
On Episode No. 3,040 of the podcast, the fellas discuss Khabib Nurmagomedov bowing out of UFC 249, Valentina Shevchenko’s injury, Jon Jones’ plea deal and much more.
THE RUNDOWN
- Khabib Nurmagomedov officially pulled out of UFC 249. So what does that mean now, if the event indeed goes off?
- UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko is out of her planned title fight against Joanne Calderwood. Is Calderwood’s title shot in jeopardy if the card gets postponed?
- Eryk Anders thinks UFC Portland fighters should get paid the same way UFC London fighters apparently did.
- Is the UFC tired of Jon Jones and all his out-of-the-cage issues? And has he hit rock bottom yet?
- The PFL postponed its third season. Does that hurt it more than postponements are hurting promotions like Bellator and the UFC?
- UFC bantamweight champ Henry Cejudo called out Dominick Cruz. Was that a smart move?
- If the UFC manages to put on UFC 249 in a couple weeks, will the pressure be on Bellator or the PFL to get things rebooked in the wake of coronavirus?
- Jan Blachowicz thinks he should be next in line for the UFC light heavyweight title. But can he really be ahead of Thiago Santos or Dominick Reyes?
