MMA On Point - Podcast

Just had a great win in the UFC or another MMA organization? The crowd's eating out of your hand? Well why not take the opportunity to setup your next big payday? In these cases though, pretty everyone though these callouts went waaaay outside the bounds of reality. It's unfortunate when the reaction is laughter instead of hype.

You would think a fighter's worst injuries come from... well you know the sport considering it's MMA, but in these cases, all of the injuries are for a completely different reason and yeah... they are all dumb reasons in the most hilarious ways imaginable. Don't be like Bryce Mitchell and always use a holster.

Dana White over the years hasn't been one to mince words. So as you might predict, he's had a ton of issues with fighters, promoters and many who are both. Case in point Oscar De Lay Hoya. But he's actually made up with a few of these. You never thought you'd see the day.

Ever asked yourself why you are an MMA fan? These moments are pretty much the exact reason the sport even exists and the first place and furthermore the reason you were able to find the sport in the first place.

The lads get into a discussion about who could potentially fill Conor McGregors massive boots as the next UFC unicorn. We're not sure if anyone can, however, we do think there are some clear stars on the roster that are capturing people's attention.
