Episode 8 discussion: Victor Rodriguez stops in to chat with Stephie Haynes about the Contender Series, promising athletes, and upcoming fights.

Welcome to Crooklyn’s Corner, the podcast that’s basically a hodgepodge of topics focused on the combat sports and entertainment community. The show will feature special interviews, fantasy matchmaking/analysis and whatever else we can come up with to keep our listeners steeped in fresh and engaging content. The show is hosted by Stephie Haynes and airs when needed to fill gaps in our Bloody Elbow Presents podcast network.

Here is a summary of the topics discussed or questions asked. Time stamps won’t always be available as our conversations tend to be very fluid and bounce back & forth frequently. However, when fantasy matchmaking and analysis is the focal point of an episode, we will definitely timestamp when each fight breakdown begins. As always, I hope you enjoy listening to the show as much as I enjoyed recording it.

EPISODE 8

Victor Rodriguez drops in to discuss the following:

  • Contender Series platform (issues and upside)
  • Notable athletes that came from it
  • How high their ceiling might be
  • Upcoming fights from the next two card
  • How Covid changed Christmas traditions
