Thursday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!
On Episode No. 3,051 of the podcast, the fellas recap UFC on ESPN+ 29, as well as look ahead to UFC on ESPN 8, and more.
THE RUNDOWN
- [autotag]Glover Teixeira[/autotag] rallied from a slow start to put on a clinic and beat down [autotag]Anthony Smith[/autotag] in the UFC on ESPN+ 29 main event. The fight ended with a fifth-round TKO win for Teixeira, but should it have been stopped sooner? We’ve got some insight into that.
- UFC on ESPN+ 29 was the second of three shows to take place behind closed doors at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla. With no fans in attendance, do the fights seem more brutal than usual?
- Could Dominick Cruz’s claim of Keith Peterson smelling like alcohol and cigarettes during his fight at UFC 249 have had an effect on UFC on ESPN+ 29 with referees allowing fights to go on longer?
- [autotag]Marvin Vettori[/autotag], who’s fight with Karl Roberson was scratched last minute, might be cursed, and he’s understandably frustrated. But did he go too far in the hotel lobby?
- UFC on ESPN 8, headlined by a heavyweight clash between Alistair Overeem and Walt Harris, goes down Saturday to cap off a trio of events in eight days. We preview the card.
- Lastly, we wish Khabib Nurmagomedov’s father the best as he recovers from a reported coma in Moscow.
