Alex Pereira’s Path to the Heavyweight Title, the Dricus Du Plessis and Israel Adesanya Faceoff, and Ian Garry’s Relationship with Ireland
To celebrate America’s independence, honorary American Petesy Carroll is joined by Chuck Mindenhall and Troy Farkas for a special edition of the program. The guys open the show by explaining the rationale behind Alex Pereira grabbing the top spot in The Ringer’s pound-for-pound rankings. Then, they start frothing at the mouth over the many options for Alex Pereira’s career path: Will we see Pereira take on Tom Aspinall or Jon Jones at heavyweight? A trilogy fight with Israel Adesanya? The guys discuss. Then, they talk about Adesanya’s intense staredown with rival Dricus du Plessis earlier today, and how they expect this intensity to play out at UFC 305 next month. After that, the talk about the changing of the guard in the welterweight division, and how the division’s killer trio of Ian Garry, Jack Della Maddalena, and Shavkat Rakhmonov will go about chasing down champ Leon Edwards. Plus, Petesy explains why Ian Machado Garry isn’t getting any love from his native Ireland.
