UFC 315 Reaction: Jack Della Maddalena vs. Islam Makhachev Next? Plus, My Problem With The Bullet!

Update: 2025-05-13

Description

With Jack Della Maddalena’s win over Belal Muhammad, the door is now open for Islam Makhachev to move up and challenge JDM. On today's podcast, I talk about whether Makhachev deserves an immediate title shot, and what this fight would mean for the future of lightweight and welterweight. Then, after watching her defeat Manon Fiorit, I tell you about the problem I have with Valentina Shevchenko. Plus, I reflect on the remarkable career of Jose Aldo after he announced his retirement on Saturday.

And finally, someone asked Jon Jones a stupid question: Who would’ve won if he and Daniel Cormier had fought at heavyweight?
