The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with UFC legend Matt Brown and MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin looking ahead at the UFC Austin card on Saturday and the biggest storylines ahead of that event.
Beneil Dariush will attempt to get back on track in the main event when he faces Arman Tsarukyan and we’ll discuss the importance of this fight as both lightweights attempt to enter the title talk conversation.
In the co-main event, Jalin Turner steps up on short notice to face Bobby Green and Brown offers his advice to fighters considering similar opportunities from the UFC in a risk versus reward situation.
Plus we’ll discuss fights involving Kelvin Gastelum vs. Sean Brady, Rob Font vs. Deveison Figueiredo and Miesha Tate’s return against Julia Avila.
We’ll also talk about the fallout from the PFL Championship card this past fight and the continued push for Jake Paul to make his MMA debut against Nate Diaz.
Would that fight be a recipe for disaster for Paul in his first MMA fight? Brown’s take might surprise you.
