UFC Vegas 96: It's not bad, it's just... kinda there | Ep. 317

This week, we’ve got UFC Vegas: Cannonier vs Borralho, which doubles as both a very consequential showcase for two top middleweights as well as another TUF finale. What’s that? Oh, you didn’t watch this past season? Don’t worry, neither did we. In fact, there may not have been too many people watching that one. But lucky for us we do have some interesting fights with some solid bangers mixed in with what can reasonably be expected to be some pretty awful duds. But the fights that are good are really, really good. Also, we take a break at the end to talk PFL and why in the world their footprint isn’t any larger or deeper. It really seems like the fighters are being done a disservice. But you know who’s not being done a disservice? You, the listener. Hope you love this episode and spread the word for us to keep building this community as we talk fights and make your day a little brighter.UFC Vegas 96 Main Card* Jared Cannonier vs. Caio Borralho 185 lbs* Angela Hill vs. Tabatha Ricci 115 lbs* Ryan Loder vs. Robert Valentin 185 lbs* Michael Morales vs. Neil Magny 170 lbs* Edmen Shahbazyan vs. Gerald Meerschaert 185 lbsUFC Vegas 96 Prelims* Dennis Buzukja vs. Francis Marshall 145 lbs* José Medina vs. Zach Reese 185 lbs* Viacheslav Borshchev vs. James Llontop 155 lbs* Josiane Nunes vs. Jacqueline Cavalcanti 135 lbs* Zygimantas Ramaska vs. Nathan Fletcher 145 lbs* Cong Wang vs. Victoria Leonardo 125 lbsUFC Vegas 96 Fun Factoids:* Ranked fights: 2* Ranked fighters: 5* Fighters coming off losses: 7* Contender Series alumni: 7* TUF alumni: 5* Debuting fighters: 3* Road to UFC alumni: 1We sincerely hope you enjoyed the episode and that you'll give us yourpatronage with a subscription, and that you’ll continue listeningevery week.
