They were off last week (hard to believe, I know), but the UFC returns to action this Saturday with UFC Fight Night 40, an event headlined by a welterweight tilt between journeyman-turned-contender Matt Brown and on again, off again Brazilian sensation Erick Silva. The card isn’t particularly great, but has a few gems on it, like the return of Kyoji Horiguchi and Erik Koch vs. Daron Cruickshank.
There was also still lots of action from the past weekend including a surprisingly close fight between Floyd Mayweather and Marcos Maidana. I was also ringside for Glory 16, which saw the return of Pat Barry to kickboxing, a return marked by his first-round KO loss.
And don’t forget, we’re just a week and a half away from Bellator 120, which itself is another can of worms.
There’s a lot going on, so join me today to discuss all of this and more. In terms of today’s chat, anything is up for discussion, but I will lead with this and it all kicks off at 1 p.m. ET.
As is customary, I’ll post the video window here as the event draws near and I’ll answer any questions you may have if you post them in the comments section below. Be sure that you click the ‘rec’ button for those comments/questions you believe most deserve a response.
Be sure to link this page and use the hashtag #chatwrappers on Twitter or even Facebook when you’re watching this to let everyone know you’re taking part is this activity of ours.
Talk with you all at 1 p.m. ET.
