Show notes
Johnny Walker capped off a wild main event with a crazy knockout of Waldo Cortes-Acosta at UFC Vegas 124 this past Saturday. Now 2-0 in the heavyweight division in less than two months, where does the offensive juggernaut go following the biggest win of his career, doing so on short notice.

Additionally, future matchups are made for Tatiana Suarez after her co-main event decision win over Virna Jandiroba, Elijah Smith following his 60 second knockout of Davey Grant in the featured about, along with fellow main card winners Lucas Fernando, Nina Milosevic, and Mitch Raposo and more following the final card before UFC 334.

Show notes
Johnny Walker was in real trouble, but when you have a fighter as wild and crazy as he is, you're never out of it. Walker battled back from a deficit to knock out top-10 heavyweight Waldo Cortes-Acosta in the main event of UFC Vegas 124. Because of the short-notice nature of the contest, where do you put Walker's ceiling in the division?
Following the UFC Fight Night card, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the action at the Meta APEX, Walker's crazy win in the Fight of the Night, and where he could go in his new home at heavyweight. Additionally, topics include Tatiana Suarez's title hopes following a lackluster win over Virna Jandiroba in the co-main event, Elijah Smith's breakout performance, other standout moments, Brendan Fitzgerald battling through illness throughout the card, Dana White possibly becoming Donald Trump's press secretary, and more.

Show notes
Waldo Cortes-Acosta and Johnny Walker are set to mix it up this Saturday.
Before the UFC heads to Madison Square Garden next week, the promotion takes one more trip to its home arena, the Meta APEX, this Saturday, for UFC Vegas 124. Headlined by a short-notice heavyweight tilt between “WCA” and Walker, and featuring a significant strawweight fight between top-five fighters Tatian Suarez and Virna Jandiroba, UFC Vegas 124 isn’t the best card of the year, but it’s still a significant event to serve as the go-home show before the MSG super card next week.
Ahead of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night card, MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee and Jed Meshew preview the card and the short-notice nature of the headliner. Additionally, they discuss the co-main event and what title implications it might have for both women, the feature bout between Davey Grant and Elijah Smith, a few hidden gems on the undercard, Jed’s Climb, and more.

Show notes
Following the UFC lightweight main event between Renato Moicano and Tom Nolan the conversation around the MMA community is about refereeing, more specifically, Dan Miragliotta's highly-questionable standup of Moicano — which eventually led to "Money" getting finished a round later. Has this been the worst year ever for officiating in the UFC?
On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the controversy surrounding the UFC Vegas 124 main event, and the fact that nobody — including the Nevada Athletic Commission, has said a word about it. Additionally, topics include Jake Paul getting Cedric Doumbe for his Christmas Eve opponent, Dana White's recent comments about Islam Makhachev, Joaquin Buckley calling out the likes of Dustin Poirier, Sean Strickland, and others, Raul Rosas Jr. submitting Colby Covington at Hype Italy, and more.

Show notes
UFC Vegas 123 went down this past Saturday at the Meta APEX and the Halloween-themed event ended in controversy following referee Dan Miragliotta's decision to stand up Renato Moicano and Tom Nolan with Moicano in a dominant position, thus leading to Nolan getting the finish the third round. Where does Nolan go from this victory where the headlines are solely about the referee?

Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Jacobe Smith following his impressive win over Randy Brown in the co-main event, Cody Durden after defeating Ode Osbourne in the featured bout, along with fellow main card winners Luana Santos and Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani, and more.

Show notes
Tom Nolan picked up the biggest win of his career at UFC Vegas 123, but unfortunately, the main storyline will fall on referee Dan Miragliotta's controversial standup of Renato Moicano in a dominant position, a couple of minutes away from a two-round advantage. That moment led to Nolan completely turning the tide and ultimately finishing Moicano in the third round.
Following Saturday's Fight Night event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the unbelievable call from Miragliotta, Nolan's performance — despite not getting the overall shine — and how Moicano handled himself after the fact. Additionally, topics include Jacobe Smith's lopsided win over Randy Brown in the co-main event and his ceiling at 170, Julian Erosa's feel-good retirement story, other standout moments, and more.

Show notes
UFC 333 delivered one of the best UFC cards of 2026 with high-level action and stakes across the board. When it was all said and done, it was Alexander Volkanovski and Petr Yan that left Abu Dhabi as champions following outstanding performances to cap off the card.

The public contract dispute between UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland and the promotion continues on, and it's created a lot of different opinions inside of the fight circle.

Now that this has gone on for over a week, will anything come of it?
On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the ongoing saga between the UFC and one of its most popular fighters, if Strickland has any leverage at all, and predicting the outcome. Additionally, topics may include Alex Pereira's recent comments about Daniel Cormier, UFC Edmonton this Saturday headlined by a pivotal welterweight clash between Joaquin Buckley and Mike Malott, other news and notes, and much more.

Brendan Allen kept his title hopes alive in the main event of Saturday's UFC Fight Night card at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas with a fifth-round submission victory over Christian Leroy Duncan.
