In today's episode, Fares breaks down a wild weekend in the world of combat sports.
Starting with UFC Qatar, the Co-main sees Belal Muhammad suffer two eye pokes before getting outpointed by Ian Garry (1:43). Arman Tsarukyan continues to show why he’s ahead of the rest of the contenders (6:34). Waldo Costa makes a real case for Fighter of the Year (13:42), leading into a debate: high-level MMA or high-level boxing (14:44)?
Then we jump to the boxing world, where Riyadh Season delivered four title fights. Abdullah Mason becomes a newly crowned champion after a war with Sam Noakes (22:06). Fares’ favorite fighter, Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez, captures another world title with a finish (25:02). Devin Haney shows surprising power up a weight class (27:47). And David Benavidez dominates in his third fight at the new weight before announcing he plans to move up again for his next bout (33:09)
