Hosted by Dave Clarke, Matt Wilcox, and Ben Peak, our MMA series "Check my Oil" gives you an in-depth look at this weekend's massive PPV fight card from Newark, New Jersey. The main event features Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling defending his title against combat sports legend Henry Cejudo. Cejudo is the youngest Olympic gold medalist in US history and a former two-weight world champion in the UFC.
We'll also cover the Welterweight contenders clash between Belal Muhammad and Gilbert Burns, and the return of Kron Gracie, a member of the Gracie fighting family, who will face Charles Jourdain in a highly anticipated fight.
Sterling and Cejudo will battle it out in the octagon, with Sterling's dominant ground game against Cejudo's wrestling skills. Both fighters have an impressive record, but who will come out on top? You'll have to tune in to find out.
Muhammad and Burns will fight for a title opportunity, and Muhammad is on a nine-fight unbeaten streak. On the other hand, Burns is back in top form and aiming for a championship eliminator. Who will win this close fight?
