To get ready for BKFC 41 this weekend, Luke Rockhold, Mike Perry and Chad Mendes all join the show to talk about their upcoming bare-knuckle fights.

Sergei Pavlovich destroyed Curtis Blaydes in the first round of their heavyweight main event battle in Las Vegas this past Saturday, which led to Pavlovich calling for a title shot against Jon Jones. While the fight could be interesting, it's unlikely to happen, but that doesn't mean Pavlovich can't get a title fight in his next appearance. On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what could be next for Pavlovich following his massive win at UFC Vegas 71, and explain why he probably won't be facing Jones anytime soon. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Bruno Silva following his first-round finish of Brad Tavares in the middleweight co-main event, along with fellow winners Iasmin Lucindo, Jeremiah Wells, Montel Jackson, and more following the promotion's latest card at the APEX.

The MMA Fighting crew gets you set for Saturday's UFC Vegas 71 event, which will be headlined by Curtis Blaydes and Sergei Pavlovich, along with Bellator 295, which will be capped off by the outstanding bantamweight grand prix finale between Raufeon Stots and Patchy Mix.

On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck reacts to the bout being set for the UFC's return to Newark, N.J., and what the stakes are for both men in the matchup. Additionally, topics include Charles Oliveira vs. Beneil Dariush officially moving to the co-main event spot of UFC 289 in June, other main event announcements from White on Thursday, the UFC sticking around the APEX for a bunch of cards over the next couple of months, Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia, what could be next for Shavkat Rakhmonov, a potential Israel Adesanya vs. Dricus Du Plessis fight, and more. You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.

MMA Fighting's José Youngs, Eric Jackman, and Damon Martain join forces to preview the highly-anticipated boxing match between Gervonta 'Tank' Davis and 'King' Ryan Garcia. Will Davis' experience be enough to halt the hype train surrounding Garcia? Can Garcia's speed neutralize Davis' much-vaunted knockout power? Who will become the face of boxing when it's all said and done? These are just some of the questions the three will answer for you ahead of the catchweight fight inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

With so much going on in the combat sports world this weekend, as well as this past weekend with UFC Kansas City, the MMA Fighting crew decided to turn the programming of the show to you, the live viewers for a special Q&A edition of Between the Links. This week, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and José Youngs take your questions about Max Holloway's big win over Arnold Allen, this Saturday's UFC Vegas 71 event headlined by Curtis Blaydes vs. Sergei Pavlovich and what the stakes could be, Bellator's doubleheader this weekend with Bellator 294 headlined by Liz Carmouche vs. DeAnna Bennett 2 on Friday, and Bellator 295 headlined by the bantamweight grand prix finale between Raufeon Stots and Patchy Mix on Saturday, Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia this Saturday in Las Vegas, and more.

Since Francis Ngannou parted ways with the UFC, everybody has been wondering what his next move will be — will he scratch that itch to box against a big name, or will he immediately continue with his MMA journey? That question remains just as difficult to answer months later. On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck discusses Ngannou's free agency, if he'll box next, and if an eventual return to the UFC is possible. Additionally, listener topics include what the new UFC 288 co-main event could end up being, the UFC Vegas 71 main event between Curtis Blaydes and Sergei Pavlovich, the UFC's flyweight division, Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia, Muhammad Mokaev's social media misfire calling out Brandon Royval, Cris Cyborg's MMA future, Amanda Nunes vs. Julianna Peña 3, and more. You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.

The No Bets Barred boys return to breakdown UFC Vegas 71, plus a smattering of bets on the Bellator double header and the Davis-Garcia boxing match.

With Charles Oliveira being scratched from his matchup with Beneil Dariush at UFC 288, is it too risky for the UFC to push that matchup back to UFC 289 on June 10 with Oliveira's injury, or should they pivot to a new fight between Dariush and Dustin Poirier instead? On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck makes the case as to why the UFC should do whatever they can do have Poirier step in to face Dariush in June, and how this division is looking right now with plans to have Islam Makahchev defend his title in October. Additionally, listener topics include Max Holloway's win over Arnold Allen in the main event of UFC Kansas City, the stakes in Saturday's UFC Vegas 71 main event between Curtis Blaydes and Sergei Pavlovich, Song Yadong vs. Ricky Simon being moved to the UFC Vegas 72 headliner, the UFC 290 fight card as it stands, and more.

Max Holloway stifled Arnold Allen's attempt to earn a title shot in the loaded UFC featherweight division in the main event of UFC Kansas City this past Saturday. The former champion was able to get back on track and called out another veteran for a showdown in the near future, but is a matchup between Holloway and The Korean Zombie the way to go, or is there a better option for "Blessed"?
