Episode 33 of the Talking Brawls MMA Podcast

It's Episode 33 of Talking Brawls and this week we've got an extra special show in store. We were joined in studio by top MMA writer Peter Carroll who writes for the Irish Mirror, the Dublin Gazette & Severe MMA to talk through all the weeks action. First up on the scales we talked to the UFC's Cody Donovan who is preparing to go to war with Ovince St. Preux at UFC on Fox Sports 1. Cody is coming off a Fight of the Night performance against Nick Penner and is looking to cement his standing in the organization by putting in another big performance next week. Then we were delighted to welcome back on the show a man who over the past year has taken the UFC by storm. Conor McGregor joined us on the show as fight week looms to talk about his return to the Octagon versus Max Holloway at UFC on Fox Sports 1 on August 17th. The Notorious one talks all about the significance of fighting in Boston, late replacements, his rise in stature over the past year, his plans for the future and what he plans to be wearing in the post fight presser. And as if all that wasn't enough we were delighted to be joined by the man standing in Conors way next Saturday night in Max "Blessed" Holloway. Max is looking to bounce back from what was a highly controversial split decision loss to Dennis Bermudez at UFC 160 with a good showing against McGregor. And to top it all off we go break down all the action from UFC 163, review all the happenings from Bellator and go in depth with a preview of the UFC on FOX Sports 1 card from Boston on August 17th.
