Our expert panel analyze the biggest topics in MMA.
Check out this week’s “Spinning Back Clique,” MMA Junkie’s weekly live show that takes a spin through the biggest topics in mixed martial arts.
This week’s panel of Brian “Goze” Garcia, Nolan King and Danny Segura will join host “Gorgeous” George Garcia live at noon ET (9 a.m. PT) to discuss and debate the following topics:
- Ilia Topuria has been a hot topic of conversation over the last week. Since knocking out Charles Oliveira at UFC 317, many are now touting the Georgian-Spanish fighter as the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet. Beyond that, some are making the case that Topuria has the best three-fight run in the history of the sport. But does he? Who else is up there with him? We discuss.
- U.S. president Donald Trump claims he’s planning on hosting a UFC event at the White House. Yes, you read that correctly. Trump made headlines this past week, saying he wanted to host a UFC title fight with 20,000 fans. It didn’t take long for the comments to gain traction, with UFC CEO Dana White saying, “It will be epic,” and fighters such as Conor McGregor throwing their name in the hat for the potential card. How legit is this? Is the Trump-UFC continued connection good or bad for the promotion? We debate.
- The UFC is back this Saturday with UFC on ESPN 70 in Nashville. This card is headlined by a heavyweight banger with powerful punchers, Derrick Lewis and Tallison Teixeira. We preview this big heavyweight bout along with other key matchups for the card.
- Lastly, to finish the show, we’ll be answering your live questions. Use the YouTube live chat to submit your questions for the panel. The best submissions will make the show.
