Description
What a weekend! The guys are back in studio to recap a historic UFC 308 event that lived up to it's hype. First, Luke and BC react to Ilia Topuria's stunning KO of Max Holloway. We already knew Topuria had the potential to be great. But after becoming the first man to knock down and knock out future Hall of Famer (and fellow P4Per) Max Holloway, does the MMA world owe Luke Thomas an apology after the results of UFC 308? Max Holloway fought his balls off in defeat, gave Topuria issues in first 2 rounds (despite judges barely rewarding him for his efforts). Who should be next for Ilia Topuria and Max Holloway? Does this lock up Fighter of the Year for Topuria? And would it be wrong for Ilia to receive P4P No. 1 votes after his last two performances?  In the co-main Khamzat Chimaev silenced critics, restored hype by breaking Robert Whittaker's jaw in Round 1. Although he entered as the No. 13-ranked middleweight, was Chimaev's dominant performance over a former champion and living legend like Whittaker enough to justify UFC to allow him to skip past even Sean Strickland for the next shot at DDP's 185-pound title. Plus, the guys discuss the Magomed Ankalaev, Shara Bullet & the rest of UFC 308 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
