    UFC Mexico Main Card Vivi: Dangerously Cheesy

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is once again on the road this weekend, with Mexico as the destination. However, this card is a sad reminder of what the UFC has become, a content mill. Never mind that the stats are abysmal, just look at the matchmaking. Giving Lone-er Kavanagh a step up in competition of this magnitude while coming off such a devastating loss is complete madne…

    UFC Houston Main Card Vivi: Apex Adjacent

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is on the road this weekend, with Houston, TX as the destination. However, this card reads more like an Apex event than a premium fight night. There are three ranked fights, but not all ranked fights measure out equally. The main card is where the better quality bouts are, but we’ve seen better. Strickland vs. Hernandez is the most intriguing an…

    UFC Vegas 113 Main Card Vivi: Loose the Gooch

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC has created magic at the Meta-Apex—a real feat for those that have been down on fight cards that take place there. This event looks more like an on-the-road event than a Pandemic House show. The main card is where the largest concentration of talent lies, as expected. And let’s not overlook the best part of it, the return of the Gooch to action.…

    UFC 325 Main Card Vivi: Save Scumming

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is giving us back-to-back numbered events to kick off their second event of the year and under the Paramount umbrella. It’s a solid affair with some fights built for action (Hello Rafael Fiziev vs. Mauricio Ruffy!) and the latest ROAD To UFC finale. We’ve got lots of fresh faces to see, and plenty of veterans for those that don’t care for new ta…

    UFC 324 Main Card Vivi: There's Waldo

    The UFC is finally back for their first card of 2026 and the first card of their Paramount+ broadcast deal. It’s a good show, worth investing the time to watch it, with a main event that pits the aging slugger against the more youthful grappler. All the fights on the main portion are solid and should appeal to a wide range of fans—even without the Nunes-Harrison title bout. Now, let’s take a look at all the fights from the main card and the rest of the alternative stats. UFC 324 Main Card * Justin Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett 155 lbs * Sean O’Malley vs. Song Yadong 135 lbs * Waldo Cortes-Acosta vs. Derrick Lewis 265 lbs * Natalia Silva vs. Rose Namajunas 125 lbs * Arnold Allen vs. Jean Silva 145 lbs UFC 324 Alternative Facts * Ranked Fights: 7 * Ranked Fighters: 15 * Fighters coming off losses: 7 * Contender Series Alumni: 8 * TUF Alumni: 3 * Road to UFC Alumni: 0 * Debut: 1 Make sure to tune in immediately after this Saturday’s fights for breakdowns and analysis on our 6th Round Post-Fight Show.

    UFC Vegas 112 Main Card Vivi: Royval Flush

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is taking their final card of the year back to the Apex for one last hurrah in 2025. It’s not their best offering, but it’s not their worst, either. We have some interesting bouts, decent alternative stats and a main event that could see a new title challenger emerge for the flyweight division. I’d say that’s nothing to cry about, and considerin…

    UFC 323 Main Card Vivi: Unmarked Van

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is taking their final PPV out with a serious bang, plenty for the proverbial buck, that’s for sure. For the fourth, straight event, we’re getting a really good card. There’s not much to take issue with on the company’s 323rd numbered card, especially with two title belts on the line and a bevvy of ranked bouts and fighters. Matchmaking is once a…

    UFC Qatar Main Card Vivi: High Class Hooker

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themmadrawpodcast.substack.com The UFC is on an unprecedented roll—at least for this current era of mostly miserable cards. Why, you ask? For the third week in a row, we’re getting a really good show. And once again, all the components of what make an event great are contained in this one. The matchmakers did well, the stats look good and there’s a feel of importance to most of the f…
