Tom Aspinall's Clock Is Ticking, Islam Makhachev's Surprise & Bobby Green

from You're Welcome! With Chael Sonnen · host Chael Sonnen

How much longer can the UFC wait on Tom Aspinall? Chael examines the heavyweight division from every angle, explaining why long layoffs change champions, what it means for Tom Aspinall's return, and why contenders like Ciryl Gane, Josh Hokit, Alexander Volkov, Sergei Pavlovich, and Gable Steveson are forcing the UFC to make difficult decisions. Then, Chael shares behind-the-scenes insight into Islam Makhachev vs. Ian Machado Garry, revealing why Islam initially passed on the matchup, what that says about Garry as a challenger, and why the betting odds may not tell the full story. Plus, Chael reacts to Bobby Green's viral sparring session with an undefeated professional boxer, explains why the performance impressed him so much, and even makes a $50,000 challenge to Adrien Broner. And another edition of Ask Uncle Chael, featuring questions on Ben Askren, Warren Buffett, Celebrity Apprentice, Mick Parkin, and more.
