A slew of massive MMA bouts were announced for both the UFC and PFL featuring some of the sport’s biggest and rising stars. In the main event of UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi, Ilia Topuria defends the featherweight title against BMF champ Max Holloway, while Robert Whittaker and Khamzat Chimaev have been rebooked for the co-main event.
On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to the current UFC 308 lineup, the top-two fights, and where that now leaves UFC307 — which is slated to take place three weeks earlier. Additionally, topics include Francis Ngannou’s MMA return announced vs. Renan Ferreira at PFL’s superfight pay-per-view in October with Cris Cyborg and Larissa Pacheco serving as the co-main event, Umar Nurmagomedov defeating Cory Sandhagen in the main event of UFC Abu Dhabi, and where that puts his stock at 135 pounds, and much more.
Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and the Co-Main Event Podcast’s Ben Fowlkes.
