    Episode 62: Topuria smashes the crown off Volkanovski's head

    Episode 62: Topuria smashes the crown off Volkanovski's head

    As per the title of this episode, Ilia Topuria showed that his run to a championship fight was no fluke and he really was as well put-together as he looked, overcoming a typically tricky Alexander Volkanovski to smash him into oblivion in the second round. As the new champion will Topuria spark the interest of fans by taking on all-comers, or will he chase uninteresting 'super' fights against the likes of Conor McGregor? I look into the fight that everyone is talking about right now as well as what the future may hold for both Topuria and the now dethroned Volkanovski, and if you want to hear my thoughts about the rest of UFC 298 please head on over to the Combat Chronicles Patreon!

    Episode 58: Pereira vs. Prochazka

    Episode 58: Pereira vs. Prochazka

    To say I was excited about former UFC middleweight champ Alex Pereira facing off with former UFC light-heavyweight champ Jiri Prochazka would be an understatement, I was certain it wouldn't disappoint. And now that the shoot-out has taken place, I'm happy to say that it didn't, bar one thing that I'm sure anyone that has seen it will already have an opinion on! Well, in this episode you'll get to hear all of my opinions on the fight, from my takes on the technical details, to my thoughts on the division overall and the current standing of both men and what we might see from them in the future.
    To hear more of my thoughts on UFC 295 (including the big heavyweight clash between Tom Aspinall and Sergei Pavlovich) head on over to the Combat Chronicles Patreon where the full one-hour episode is available right now!

Greatest Podcast in the Fight Game

Already the best fight podcast. What sets this apart is how much this guy clearly LOVES combat sports. Other guys analyze fights and it seems like a chore to them. This guy reviews fights and the passion is evident. First ep was a joy to listen to.
