Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul, its a no brainer who will take the victory from this fight!! Floyd Mayweather could probably end it all in the first round if he wants to!

Osca De La Hoya vs George St Pierre, I've changed my mind on this fight and why it would be a bad match up!

Jon Jones taking another break from MMA to try and still reach the weight he wants to to compete in the heavy weight division. He still wants more money to fight but will Dana White and the UFC pay him?

Are we still going to be hearing more about the Joshua Fabia and Diego Sanchez situation?

The fight card for UFC 264 seems to be pretty stacked; Conor Mcgregor vs Dustin Poirier, who will win?

How seriously will Jake and Logan Paul take boxing? Will they quit when they lose against proper elite level boxers?

Guys meet Dave Farrell my new co - host!! He has been a fight fan for a lot longer than myself. So discussing the current events in the sport of MMA and other combat sports will definitely be interesting and insightful for me!
