Meanwhile, Tony goes in on the pay UFC fighters receive and argues that combat sports stars deserve far more money. The lads also discuss the Ali Act in the US and why it could be vital that it's not overturned.There’s also huge fight talk as Tom and Tony break down Oleksandr Usyk v Rico Verhoeven and preview next month's massive UFC White House card, including Alex Pereira vs Ciryl Gane and Ilia Topuria vs Justin Gaethje.
