    SONG UPSETS UMAR!!!! SONG NEXT FOR TITLE SHOT?

    On this episode of Weighing In, Josh Thomson breaks down the massive bantamweight showdown between Umar Nurmagomedov and Song Yadong in Shanghai. Umar enters as the No. 3-ranked bantamweight and former title challenger, while Song is ranked No. 6 and fighting in front of his home crowd. The UFC has positioned this as a critical fight in the race for the next title opportunity. Can Umar use his world-class wrestling and grappling to control Song, or can Song's speed, power and striking create the upset? There's also the bigger question: Is Umar one win away from another UFC title shot? After falling short against Merab Dvalishvili, Umar has rebounded with two straight wins and now has a massive opportunity to put himself right back in the championship conversation. Josh breaks down the matchup, the keys to victory for both fighters, the bantamweight title picture and what the winner should get next. 🔥 Umar Nurmagomedov vs Song Yadong. UFC Shanghai.

    Fighters FINED for Celebrating?! Big John on the NSAC “RIDICULOUS” Rule

    On this episode of McCarthy Monday, Big John McCarthy and Josh Thomson break down the Nevada State Athletic Commission's crackdown on UFC fighters climbing or leaving the cage after their victories. Following UFC 329, Max Holloway, Paddy Pimblett and Gable Steveson are facing disciplinary hearings after their post-fight celebrations. Their purses have been withheld pending the hearings. And Daniel Cormier isn't holding back, calling the rule “the most ridiculous rule in mixed martial arts” and arguing that fighters should be allowed to celebrate the biggest moments of their careers. But is the Nevada commission actually justified? Big John brings his experience as a former referee and longtime authority on MMA rules to explain why the rule exists, where the safety concerns come from, and whether the commission is taking things too far. Josh and Big John also discuss the difference between dangerous behavior inside the cage and harmless emotional celebrations after a fight, and whether there should be some common-sense discretion when it comes to enforcing these rules. The commission's concerns aren't completely without precedent—the infamous UFC 229 Khabib Nurmagomedov–Conor McGregor brawl showed how quickly fighters leaving the cage can create chaos. But does that justify punishing fighters who simply climb the cage after a win? Should fighters be fined for celebrating—or should the commission use some common sense? 👇 Let us know what YOU think in the comments! 💧 STAY HYDRATED WITH LMNT Get LMNT Here 🎙️ WATCH CROSSING LINES Crossing Lines Sports TV 📲 FOLLOW WEIGHING IN @weighingin @therealpunk Subscribe for McCarthy Monday, UFC reactions, fight breakdowns, fighter interviews and the biggest conversations in MMA. #McCarthyMonday #BigJohnMcCarthy #JoshThomson #UFC #MMA #UFC329 #PaddyPimblett #MaxHolloway #GableSteveson #DanielCormier #WeighingIn

    Former two-division world champion Reinier "RDR" de Ridder joins Josh Thomson and Big Angelo Bodetti on Weighing In for an in-depth conversation about his move to the UFC light heavyweight division, his training at American Top Team, and what's next in his pursuit of UFC gold.

He also previews his upcoming matchup with Roman Dolidze, shares the type of finish he's expecting, and discusses the opponents he wants after a statement victory. The conversation also dives into: Why elite grapplers sometimes struggle to transition into MMA. His thoughts on UFC BJJ, RAF Wrestling, and competing outside the Octagon. Why he believes Arman Tsarukyan should stay active instead of waiting for a title shot. Training alongside Mike Brown, King Mo, and the stacked room at American Top Team after leaving Kill Cliff FC. The differences between ATT and Kill Cliff, and why the change has revitalized his career. His candid thoughts on ONE Championship, why he's happy to be in the UFC, and why fighters still contact him for advice on leaving the promotion. Why Jiří Procházka's unconventional training methods aren't for him. His prediction for the Roman Dolidze fight and what fans can expect inside the Octagon.
