BTL: Jon Jones stops Stipe Miocic at UFC 309, reaction to Paul vs. Tyson, Yan vs. Figueiredo
Jake Paul and Mike Tyson headlined a boxing event that was streamed by over 100 million people on Netflix this past Friday. While the card was a gigantic success from a business perspective, and the rematch between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano delivered a Fight of the Year contender, the Paul vs. Tyson main event was underwhelming, and the Netflix experience appeared to be even worse.
On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to the Paul vs. Tyson fight card, the good, the great, and the awful, if more of these events will happen, and what is next for Paul after the lackluster decision victory. Additionally, topics include Jon Jones’ easy win over Stipe Miocic in the main event of UFC 309, the reaction from the MMA community, where Jones ranks pound-for-pound and if he’ll fight Tom Aspinall — or anybody else — Charles Oliveira’s lopsided win over Michael Chandler, Saturday’s UFC Macau event headlined by Petr Yan vs. Deiveson Figueiredo, and more.
Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and Morning Kombat’s Brian Campbell.
