MMA Junkie Radio #2979: B.J. Penn street fight, Dana White talks Conor McGregor, more
Thursday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!
Covered in Episode 2,979 of the podcast, we dive into a doozy of a week of MMA news and notes, as well as preview the biggest fights on Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ 15 card in Shenzhen, China:
- Reaction to B.J. Penn getting into a bar/street fight in Hawaii. What is going on with the UFC Hall of Famer? Should he be cut from the UFC roster?
- Our thoughts on UFC president Dana White commenting on Conor McGregor’s alleged sexual assault, as reported by the New York Times earlier this year.
- Now UFC dual champion Henry Cejudo is calling out out Dominick Cruz. Can we still take “Triple C” seriously?
- What happened to the UFC slowing things down for Darren Till? Booking him against Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 244 is the opposite of what Dana White said he’d do.
- A preview of UFC Shenzhen, including the title fight at the top of the bill between strawweight champ Jessica Andrade and Weili Zhang. Could an upset be brewing?
