Due to travel, I won't be releasing the regularly scheduled podcast on Sunday. In its place will be this special Q&A podcast (questions below) in the meantime, and the regular podcast on Tuesday or Wednesday.  Receive a notification when the next podcast comes out by subscribing. Questions: How much credit does Conor McGregor deserve for innovating shoulder strikes? Are there fewer top NCAA wrestlers transitioning to MMA? Are they just not reaching the highest level? Why would Conor McGregor choose MLK day of all days to publicly praise Donald Trump? Is it possible that Kamaru Usman benefited from his Twitter being hacked? Why does Steven A Smith work UFC events instead of Max Kellerman? How do you see the UFC heavyweight division shaking out this year? If you could be UFC president for a day, what changes would you make? Who is the biggest name fighter you've trained with? Best unknown fighter? Should Maycee Barber publicly feud with her dad over comments made about UFC 246 fight? Have you thought about covering sports betting? Is Gordon Ryan going to fight MMA? How good could he be? Do you think any Olympic wrestling hopefuls will transition to MMA this year after the trials in April? Have you seen the story about the Houston Astros cheating? Is there a MMA equivalent? If yes, how would it be handled? In honor of Bucky Barber, do you have any stories of awful parents in your time reffing BJJ?
