The Ringer MMA Show
Jon Jones’s Legal Issues, Conor McGregor’s BKFC Comments, and What If Curtis Blaydes Beats Tom Aspinall?
About the episode
Jon Jones is in the headlines for the wrong reasons again, leading Petesy Carroll and Chuck Mindenhall to open the program by discussing another blemish on his legacy, as well as how Tom Aspinall should act in the aftermath of UFC 304 should the Englishman walk away with the win over Curtis Blaydes. Then, the guys talk about Nate Diaz’s lawsuit against Fanmio, expectations and excitement levels for Saturday’s Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry boxing fight, and Conor McGregor’s appearance at the BKFC press conference in Spain. Should the UFC be concerned by this, and will McGregor’s involvement eventually lead to a BKFC fight against Diaz? The lads break it all down before taking a Discord question about next weekend’s clash between Aspinall and Blaydes. Plus, Chuck delivers his Final Thoughts on the reemergence of longtime UFC employee Burt Watson.
