UFC 304 delivered a packed night of fights in Manchester, as one British fighter retained his title, and the other saw his ripped from his grasp.
On this week’s episode of The RDX Sports Podcast with Simon Head, I sit down to chat with veteran MMA reporter John Morgan to get the final word on those two big title fights, plus the rest of the main card from Manchester.
Will Jon Jones eventually agree to face Tom Aspinall, or is the fight little more than a pipe dream for the Brit? And what’s next for the new undisputed welterweight champion Belal Muhammad, who defied the odds, and his detractors, to capture the 170-pound title with a dominant performance at Co-op Live.
We also look ahead to UFC 306, as “Noche UFC” heads to the spectacular Sphere in Las Vegas with a bunch of exciting matchups already announced for the card. And we give our early assessment of the main event of UFC 305, as the Octagon heads to Perth, Australia for a huge middleweight title clash, with South Africa’s Dricus Du Plessis taking on Nigerian-New Zealander Israel Adesanya for all the marbles at 186 pounds.
