Jim and Matt are back with a stacked midweek episode featuring two UFC vets and one of Hollywood’s finest behind the camera.
First up, Danish welterweight Nicolas Dalby makes his UFC Unfiltered debut to reflect on his razor-thin split decision loss, the secret to staying fight-ready at 40, and his thoughts heading into a striker’s showdown with Randy Brown.
Next, Gavin O’Connor — the acclaimed director behind The Accountant and Warrior — joins in a pre-recorded chat ahead of this Friday’s theatrical release of The Accountant 2. Gavin and Matt swap Long Island stories before diving into how he fell in love with MMA and what makes fight storytelling so cinematic.
Wrapping things up is Matt Schnell, back from a brief retirement and ready to go this Saturday. Schnell revisits his legendary comeback win over Sumudaerji and explains his motivation to return to the Octagon after previously laying down his gloves in his most recent loss to Cody Durden. With matchmaking on his post-career radar, Schnell also shares his take on the perfect sendoff for fellow Louisianan Dustin Poirier.
Plus: Jim and Matt give their picks for this weekend’s UFC Fight Night in Kansas City!
