THE RUNDOWN

  • Since Monday’s episode, UFC 249 now has a location (allegedly) on California tribal land to skirt around a statewide stay-at-home order, [autotag]Rose Namajunas[/autotag] has withdrawn, the California State Athletic Commission announced it won’t sanction any UFC events in the state during Gov. Gavin Newsom’s order, and more. The guys make sense of all that.
  • Now that Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje are fighting for the interim lightweight title at UFC 249, and the winner is expected to then unify with champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, what does that mean for [autotag]Conor McGregor[/autotag]’s future?
  • Should [autotag]Greg Hardy[/autotag], who is booked for UFC 249, be fighting right now seeing as the coronavirus attacks the lungs? Something to consider since Hardy uses an inhaler.
  • Did you hear about Anthony Smith’s harrowing story of a recent home invasion? Some thoughts on that.
  • Is Joe Rogan in or out on calling the action at UFC 249?
