Description

Ariel opens the show by speaking to NBC Sports Rugby Analyst Alex Corbisiero about former English rugby star James Haskell's transition to MMA and why it's such a big deal in the rugby world. He also explains why it's not a gimmick and why he expects more rugby players to make the switch in the coming years. Then, NewYorkRic previews this weekend's Jessica Andrade/Zhang Weili main event before discussing Paige VanZant's UFC contract and the ridiculousness of glove-touching (21:43). Lastly, Brett Okamoto talks about the recently-announced Kelvin Gastelum/Darren Till fight and which matchups some of MMA's biggest stars - including Conor McGregor -- are targeting over the next year (43:08). Plus, does Tight Ship Troy sound like Andrew Luck?
