Manage episode 390097927 series 3084741
UFC 296 featured two title fights in Leon Edwards vs. Colby Covington and Alexandre Pantoja vs. Brandon Royval as well as the return of Shavkat Rakhmonov. We will discuss all this on today's episode.
In the main event of UFC 296, Leon Edwards cruised to a decision over perennial number 2 Colby Covington. We will talk about why Leon Edwards was so effective over Colby Covington including a lot of his anti-wrestling techniques. As good as Edwards looked, I will pick at some gripes I had near the end of the fight. All in all, Leon Edwards dominated his second title defense and Colby Covington had nothing for him.
In the co-main event, Alexandre Pantoja defeated Brandon Royval. That fight was an entertaining five rounder with Pantoja defending his newly captured flyweight title. Brandon Royval did have a good showing and proved that he's a force to be reckoned with.
Shavkat Rakhmonov cometh. The Kazakh fighter took on Stephen Wonderboy Thompson at UFC 296 and dominated. We will discuss Shavkat Rakhmonov's gameplanning and why he had to grapple with Wonderboy.
Paddy Pimblett defeated Tony Ferguson and that was depressing. Josh Emmett murdered Bryce Mitchell. Cody Garbrandt won his second straight.
All that and more on this episode! Enjoy.
