Jim Miller, Maycee Barber, Ilia Topuria’s rapid ascension w/ guest co-host Phoenix Carnevale

With Matt Serra out for the day, friend of the show Phoenix Carnevale fills in as a guest co-host alongside Jim Norton for today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered — which features two guest callers in lightweight veteran Jim Miller and women’s flyweight Maycee Barber. Fresh off an exciting knockout victory that only took 23 seconds, Jim Miller assesses his place in the lightweight division as a 39-year-old veteran with the record for the most UFC fights and wins in promotional history before discussing why he enjoys hunting, fishing, and farming the majority of his own food. While waiting for Maycee Barber to hop on the show, Jim Norton fills in Phoenix on his jiu-jitsu progress, which leads the two show hosts into a discussion about Mark Zuckerberg’s martial arts training regiment and reported mutual desire to get in the Octagon with Elon Musk. Then, Maycee Barber hops on the show while in line to board her flight, saving enough time to talk about her scintillating 2nd-round TKO victory over Amanda Ribas in Saturday’s UFC Fight Night: Emmett vs. Topuria co-main event. Finally, Phoenix and Jim wrap up the show with a recap of Saturday’s card and whether fast-rising featherweight Ilia Topuria’s victory over Josh Emmett was decisive enough to skip past a fight against Max Holloway and instead place him next in line for a shot at the featherweight title following Alexander Volkanovski and Yair Rodriguez’s unification fight at UFC 290.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
