Description
Following an eventful UFC 287 this past weekend, The Fighter vs. The Writer with Matt Brown and Damon Martin returns to discuss everything that unfolded.
In the main event, Israel Adesanya exacted his revenge with a brutal second-round knockout over Alex Pereira to regain the middleweight title and become a two-time UFC champion. By vanquishing arguably his greatest foe, Adesanya cemented himself among the best 185-pound fighters but where does he now rank with the greatest fighters in the history of the sport?
Does Adesanya already deserve to be mentioned alongside names like Georges St-Pierre, Anderson Silva and Demetrious Johnson?
We’ll also discuss Gilbert Burns’ win and Jorge Masvidal announcing his retirement afterwards.
Masvidal called it a career after 20 years in the sport and we’ll talk about the legacy he leaves behind now that he’s hung up his gloves for good.
We’ll also give our picks for the upcoming UFC Kansas City main event between Max Holloway and Arnold Allen.
