This week’s broadcast features recaps and previews of MMA and boxing events around the world. Tony, Tom and Rich also discuss politics and go off on a couple tangents here and there. We make it the whole episode this week without mentioning MacGregor vs. Mayweather even once.
We do break down some huge upcoming fights with Andre Berto taking on Shawn Porter in the main event on Showtime this week and a fourth MMA fight between Daniel Straus and Patricio “Pitbull” Friere at Bellator 178 on Friday night. We also have another UFC fight night to discuss and last week’s MMA results to go over.
csőcselék Rousin’ Rich Bergeron, “Pszichikai” Tom Padgett és Tony “A Tornado” Penecale discuss the news and events of the last two weeks in combat sports. From Rampage Jackson’s rough final fight in Bellator to Chris Weidman’s controversial loss to Gegard Mousasi we cover all the major MMA happenings. We also discuss the upcoming week’s boxing schedule and look back at some events in boxing from the last two weeks. We wrap up with a discussion about NASCAR and Bellator taking advantage of their common partnership with Monster energy drink. The two sports giants announced recently that Bellator will host fight cards at future racing events.
Tomi, Rich and Tony break down last week’s big fights and preview the upcoming week’s combat sports cards. The main focus is Bellator 175 in MMA this week. We also discuss some of the latest news, such as a claim made by Bob Arum that the UFC wants to take half of Conor MacGregor’s purse when and if he fights Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a boxing match. We also have a good laugh about Rampage Jackson being mad at King Mo Lawal for “fat shaming” him.. Rampage’s defense is vintage Cartman from South Park: “I’m not fat, I’m just big boned.”
Tomi, Tony and Rich discuss the world of combat sports. Conor MacGregor will fight Floyd Mayweather, Jr. if you believe Dana White. We also chat about UFC Fight Night events featuring Jimi Manuwa and Kelvin Gastelum notching huge career wins. We look back at Golovkin vs. Jacobs and the unlikelihood of Canelo taking the fight with Golovkin now. We also preview King Mo Lawal vs. Rampage Jackson next Friday.

A heti bemutatónkat Lou Duvának szenteltük (fent jobbra házigazdánk, Tony Penecale). Lou a hét elején, érett korában meghalt 1994. Nagyszerű barátja volt Rocky Marciano-nak, promótere 19 világbajnokok, és egy ember, akinek minden vasa benne volt az egyetlen tűzben, amely megvilágította az életét: dobozolás. A promóter / edző / menedzser / legenda évekkel ezelőtt megjelent az FNU Combat Sports show-n, de sajnos az audio szemcsés és foltos. Ha figyelmesen hallgatja a drágaköveket, a beszélgetésünk meghaladja a nehezen hallható pontokat.
Tomi, Tony és Rich is összefoglalja Garcia vs.. Thurman, A legfrissebb Mayweather vs.. McGregor, UFC 209 és a sok vita csatolt, A GSP sötét figyelmeztetése a súlycsökkentésre, és Tony Bellew megdöbbentő felháborodása David Haye miatt.
János “A Beast” Baranchyk (15-0, 10 KO) joins the broadcast tonight to talk about hisrecent waron ShoBox with Abel Ramos (17-2-2, 12 KO). Baranchyk launched an incredible effort in the later rounds to hand Ramos his second professional loss and establish himself as a spirited, tough-as-nails brawler. Some experts claimed the fight was one of the most entertaining bouts in the 17-year history of the ShoBox series. Tomi, Tony and Rich discuss the fight, other highlights of Ivan’s career, and get Baranchyk to explain how his early start in Jiu Jitsu eventually led him to the Sweet Science. The 24-year-old is already solidifying his legend, which explains why he points to “Iron” Mike Tyson as one of his role models in the sport of boxing.
Tomi, Tony and Rich also discuss the latest Mayweather/MacGregor news, an odd suspension of an MMA fighter for going after his opponent’s corner man, the calling off of Chris Brown vs. Soulja Boy, and Roy Jones Jr. re-establishing his goal of fighting Anderson Silva in a boxing match (he now wants it to be on the Mayweather/MacGregor undercard).
We also recap last week’s combat sports events and preview Bellator 173 and this week’s upcoming boxing matches.
Tony, Rich and Tom come back from a week off with a ton of stuff to talk about. From the controversy of Holly Holm’s UFC 208 main event title fight with Germaine De Randamie to the upcoming battle between Matt Mitrione and Fedor Emelianenko, we cover a wide range of past and upcoming MMA events. We also look back at Ivan Barnchyk’s masterful comeback last weekend against Abel Ramos in a thrilling boxing match. We also go over the upcoming week’s boxing schedule. We also update the Mayweather vs. MacGregor negotiations with a big surprise: The UFC is the big stumbling block at this point. Additionally we discuss the recent study showing soccer players can suffer the same damage as heavyweight boxers after long careers in the sport where heading soccer balls repeatedly can bring on CTE in retired players. We also spend time discussing Brock Lesnar’s retirement and GSP’s imminent return.
Házigazdák Tom, A Fight News Unlimited Combat Sports műsorának Tony és Rich fantasztikus élménye volt, hogy utolérte Donald Trump elnököt egy exkluzív interjúért, amelyet a ma esti adás tartalmaz.. Kérünk “A Donald” mindenről Mayweather vs.. McGregor Iránba és Kínába. Az interjú kb 23 perc alatt a teljes show-kazettába, de az interjút egyedül egy másik hangfájlban is elhelyezzük a bejegyzés fő műsorfájlja alatt. Megvitatunk néhány MMA szakszervezeti kérdést is, Aisling Daly fiatalon visszavonul az UFC-től, Conor McGregor azt állítja, hogy a következő összecsapása egy boksz-ringben lesz, Dana White szerint Ronda Rousey készen áll a profi harcra. Összefoglaljuk az év első nagy UFC- és Bellator-eseményeit is a múlt héttől, és várjuk az UFC Fight Night-t 104 Houston-ban szombat este.

Itt a teljes műsorunk:
