While dealing with the loss of the main event is definitely a major blow, however, most of the rest of the card isn’t any worse for the cancellations. We’ll still get a light heavyweight title fight at the top, between Jan Blachowicz & Magomed Ankalaev. Paired up with that we’ve got the return of Paddy Pimblett and a surefire thriller between Ilia Topuria and Bryce Mitchell..." - Zane Simon 12.08.22For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the MAIN CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which now airs around 5/2AM ETPT every Thursday right here on our SC channel.The MMA Vivisection is brought to you by ‘The Fine Art of Violence’, a collection of art and essays recapping the year in MMA by Chris Rini, featuring the most talented artists and writers in Mixed Martial Arts.
