  • Great episode

    You guys are still going strong. More podcast Dave please. I really enjoyed your discussion today. Also, I like that other guy who kept calling you JT. Although, he did have that horrible take about Pereira being able to withstand John’s wrestling.

  • Stop with the backstories

    Guys please stop yapping about whatever memories from Strikeforce back in the day. I like the fight analysis but it’s probably about 20% of the timestamp where it says the top.

    Less than 20% of an entire episode is fight analysis

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kyle Dake Answers the Question, "Would he Beat Bo Nickel?"
Q: Last question on this is reclass. You see a lot of these kids reclassing and coming in. Is it unfair? What's your take on the process of the sport's eligibility rules?
There needs to be a clear framework; you have to have rules to prevent chaos, but flexibility helps develop athletes. Reclassification has positives and negatives, and the decision should balance development with fairness for all participants.

Q: Brendan, what's your favorite Brazilian food?

Q: If the money was right, is there somebody you would actually come back and fight?
