Today’s Topics: Will Conor McGregor's outside the octagon lifestyle catch up with him at UFC 257? Conor McGregor faces civil suit over reported rape The odds are good that Dana White will try and victim shame/blame when it comes to Conor McGregor's civil suit The MMA media has to ask White and McGregor about the civil suit and still needs to ask White why the UFC scrubbed White's anti-media rant video from the internet.

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #219 January 18, 2021

January 18, 2021 11:00 - 27 minutes

Today's Topics I'm not sure the main event of UFC Fight Island 7 was the best 25 minutes for the UFC's debut on ABC. My reaction to Jon Anik speaking about Dana White's relationship with the MMA media My thoughts on the MMA media not even asking Dana White about the video he released lambasting the MMA media while at the same time misrepresenting the media. Also, where did the video go? I'm not buying what Dana White is selling about the return of Khabib Nurmagomedov Do you know somethi...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #217 January 12, 2021

January 12, 2021 11:01 - 19 minutes

Today’s Topics: Was the talk of a UFC roster purge a bluff to convince fighters to take fights they might not have accepted? There are many reasons Dana White could have been angry with Conor McGregor, you know, like legit crimes, but what made White mad was that he got caught talking poorly about Diego Sanchez. Dana White wants to know how you don’t book a rematch between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor and the answer to that is simple. Dana White wants Conor McGregor to skip th...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #216 January 11, 2021

January 11, 2021 11:01 - 23 minutes

Today’s Topics: COVID-19 protocol for fans at UFC Fight Island is impressive, but I don’t think things will work at UFC Apex unless the UFC makes a big adjustment Dana White continues to say he will try to get Khabib Nurmagomedov to fight again and I’ll tell you why I think that’s a slimy move. Santiago Ponzinibbio says the official UFC rankings are b******t and he has a point. That’s another reason the UFC needs to fix its rankings process. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #215 January 8, 2021

January 08, 2021 11:00 - 20 minutes

Today's Topics: Dana White says the UFC official rankings are important for matchmaking. Cool, now how about some transparency so the fighters, fans and media know those rankings are legit? Dana White knows open scoring sucks. Why this is the wrong way to approach something different. How about trying it and coming up with reasons why it's good or bad? Nope, the "fight genius" knows best. The Leon Edwards situation is another reason fighters should get a stipend. Dustin Poirier has the r...

January 06, 2021 11:01 - 22 minutes

Today's Topics: Rose Namajunas' manager pushes back against the UFC and I hope this becomes the norm Michael Chandler thinks mismanagement is a problem for Tony Ferguson and I agree Cory Sandhagen doesn't want to see T.J. Dillashaw to get a title shot after a two-year USADA suspension and his reason makes a lot of sense What I want to see from the UFC in 2021: Back up fighters for every main event fight on the 2021 schedule Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a figh...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #213 January 5, 2021

January 05, 2021 11:00 - 21 minutes

Today’s Topics: Not everything I write about or talk about is meant to be confrontational. For instance, the story on the COVID-19 relief loans was a news story. Despite that, some folks have portrayed the story as politically motivated. It's not. Trust me, if I want to attack someone's politics, I will. With that said, I will watch how these businesses use these PPP loans and if the SBA fully forgives these loans. While I agree with Dana White that I don't want to see Nick Diaz fight again...

January 04, 2021 11:00 - 24 minutes

January 01, 2021 11:00 - 25 minutes

Today’s Topics: Dana White and I mostly agree as to why we don’t want to see Nick Diaz in the UFC in 2021 Dana White and I don’t agree what a perfect scenario for Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov would look like in 2021 The writing I see on the wall from the UFC’s ownership group makes me fear for the future of the organization — at least as far as the UFC as we have come to know and understand it Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should kno...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #209 December 24, 2020

December 24, 2020 11:00 - 17 minutes

Today’s topics: Anthony Pettis signing with the PFL works for Pettis, the PFL and I hope more UFC fighters who are released or fight out their deals bet on themselves and sign with PFL. I also hope the UFC treats other fighters like Pettis and allow them to walk without exclusive period and without matching rights time if they don't want to re-sign them. Everyone wins in this situation. Tony Ferguson had a problem in his corner at UFC 256. He might have a bigger problem with his camp and t...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #207 December 22, 2020

December 22, 2020 11:00 - 12 minutes

Today’s Topics: Listening carefully to a recent interview with UFC president Dana White, it sounds as if the UFC 257 matchup between Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor could be for the undisputed lightweight title. I speak briefly about Dana White’s anti-MMA media temper tantrum video Chris Weidman has the right attitude about the upcoming UFC roster cuts.

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #206 December 21, 2020

December 21, 2020 11:00 - 23 minutes - 27 MB

Today’s Topics: Dana White vacations while UFC fighters wonder if they're going to have a job and that's a huge FU to all the UFC fighters. The UFC's Greg Hardy experiment should not have happened. Will the UFC shut it down after Hardy's TKO loss at UFC Vegas 17. A look back at UFC Vegas 17. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know?

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #205 December 18, 2020

December 18, 2020 11:00 - 24 minutes - 28.1 MB

Today’s Topics: Why is Dana White trying to talk Khabib Nurmagomedov out of retirement? Money, of course and that’s kind of a slimy move from White, but not a surprising one. I fear that Charles Oliveira is going to be a forgotten man in the UFC’s lightweight division. UFC Vegas 17 looks like a solid event. I discuss some questions I have about Saturday’s fight card. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know? You can email me at trent.reinsmi...

December 17, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes

Today's Topics Dana White Fact Check White says UFC fighters would have given up $200 million if the UFC had shutdown for COVID-19. That number does not work out. White says Rose Namajunas is not interested in a title fight, but she is. White is an anti-promoter. Fighters need to stand up to White's lies. White says "I heard..." on several occasions about the future of fighters. Maybe pick up the phone Dana White. White says a win over Khamzat Chimaev will help the No. 3 ranked...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #203 December 15, 2020

December 15, 2020 11:00 - 14 minutes

Today’s Topics: Dana White tries to make it sound as if fighters are going to retire or move on of their own accord. That’s not true. The new ownership group seems to want more profits and that means another change is coming from the days of the Fertitta brothers. I talk about the UFC bubble and the UFC’s protocol. A recent email that was sent to fighters and corners seems as if that might have fallen off a bit. Another thing to consider is the reality of the situation is the UFC "bubble" ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #202 December 14, 2020

December 14, 2020 11:00 - 36 minutes

Todays Topics: In praise of UFC 256 Chase Hooper has a great ground game, but he needs to develop his striking and that might need to be done outside the UFC Tecia Torres gets a confidence building win NSAC does the right thing when a fighter says she can’t see Daniel Cormier gives terrible advice - fighters should put long-term health over short-term gain Gavin Tucker had a great outing Rafael Fiziev looked excellent in finishing Renato Moicano and no, Moicano was not going to recove...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #201 December 11, 2020

December 11, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes

Today's Topics: Stop looking at UFC pay as strictly for the fight. The fight is the reward, the pay is for the training and prep. Professional athlete is a 24-7 job, not a 15-minute or 25-minute job. The big question for UFC 256; which fighters could be part of the roster purge with a loss at UFC 256. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know? You can email me at [email protected] or contact me via secure messaging on Telegram at trentr...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #200 December 10, 2020

December 10, 2020 11:00 - 20 minutes

Today's topics: Bellator should explain why it is overlooking the reports of domestic violence against Anthony Johnson. Some MMA media are spinning the cuts coming to the UFC roster as a positive or just another roster purge. I'm not so sure that's the case John Kavanagh takes offense to some words from Claressa Shields and that's funny considering Kavanagh coaches the always squeaky clean Conor McGregor Man, I hope the UFC doesn't book Henry Cejudo to face Deiveson Figueiredo Do you kn...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #199 December 9, 2020

December 09, 2020 11:00 - 16 minutes - 18.4 MB

Today’s Topic: Dana White has claimed that the greed of the fighters is what is hurting boxing. I don’t buy that, but I do think the greed of White and the UFC ownership group is costing the UFC as far as talent and quality goes. I also find White’s claim the UFC pay structure reflects the “real” world to be untrue. Let me explain. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know? You can email me at [email protected] or contact me via secure ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #198 December 8, 2020

December 08, 2020 11:00 - 17 minutes

Today’s topics: I don’t care about the Mayweather vs. Paul farce. Why I think Jackson Wink MMA could have handled the Rafael “Barata” de Freitas situation better. If there’s one thing I would encourage fighters to band together about, it would be being bullied into taking long UFC contracts. try to force shorter deals, maybe 2-3 fights, so you can negotiate or renegotiate every year or so. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know? You can ema...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #197 December 7, 2020

December 07, 2020 11:00 - 26 minutes

Today's Topics What is going on at the UFC Apex as far as positive COVID-19 tests? Could someone like Jack Hermansson be in danger of being released? What Dana White left out when he discussed the release of Yoel Romero. The NSAC needs to speak to judge Chris Lee and work with him.

December 04, 2020 11:05 - 20 minutes

Today's Topics: TJ Dillashaw is close to returning from his USADA suspension. Dillashaw wants a bantamweight title fight upon his return. I don't think that's a good idea. There's talk that Nick Diaz, who hasn't fought since 2015 and hasn't won since 2011, plans to return to the UFC. I hope that doesn't happen. Yair Rodriguez gets hit by USADA for three whereabouts violations. USADA drug testing would be on the table if UFC fighters had a CBA. The UFC should test Cody Garbrandt extensive...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #195 December 3, 2020

December 03, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes

Today’s Topics: Thoughts on the knuckleheads who are criticizing Rose Namajunas and the trauma she experienced after Conor McGregor attacked the fighter bus at UFC 223. Also, why did the tough-talking Dana White let McGregor skate without even a slap on the wrist? Gray Maynard said MMA fighters are paid like strippers. Dana White proves Maynard correct by giving Deiveson Figueiredo a UFC gift bag full of cash. How about Dana White respects Khabib Nurmagomedov's wishes and allows him to st...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #194 December 2, 2020

December 02, 2020 11:00 - 23 minutes

Today's Topics: The UFC as a content creation mill. The number of UFC events is more important than the quality of UFC events. Dana White might be a good steward for the folks the UFC makes money for, but he is not a good leader. The UFC rankings team still contains a website that withdrew from the rankings pool about a month ago. Transparency is needed if UFC wants fighters, fans and media to trust those rankings. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #193 December 1, 2020

December 01, 2020 11:00 - 16 minutes

Today’s Topics: Dana White scolds MMA media for not holding him accountable for a single bonus. 1) That's not the media's job 2) The reason no one wants to hold White accountable on anything is fear. 3) Can we hold White accountable for other things as well...like health and safety, pay, etc... Also, what's the criteria for a fight-night bonus? (0:47) Dana White wonders if fighters are competing so often these days because of COVID-19. C'mon now, he knows damn well, that's why fighters ar...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #191 November 26, 2020

November 27, 2020 11:45 - 17 minutes - 20 MB

Today’s Topics: MMA fighters need to focus on getting paid when they negotiate a contract, not the level of competition, not the name of the promotion, not the title. The money is all MMA promotions offer, so get the most you can. UFC 257 could take place in Las Vegas at the Apex. Eleven of 22 media organizations who take part in UFC rankings have questions about them. Dana White seems to pay off Deiveson Figueiredo to take a short notice fight. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #190 November 25, 2020

November 25, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes

Today’s Topics: If Dana White wants to protect the legends of the sport from themselves, the UFC should pay them enough so they can retire/ Francis Ngannou is not happy, but is that his own fault? If UFC fighters are “afraid” to ask the UFC for more money they should have their management do that. If their management won’t, they should get new management ASAP. One takeaway from UFC 255 was that Joe Rogan has overstayed his time as the color commentator. He has become a distraction and he ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #189 November 24, 2020

November 24, 2020 11:00 - 10 minutes

Today's topics: It's the rare MMA good guy story as PFL tournament winner, Emiliano Sordi uses his $1 million to feed his community during pandemic. This is a refreshing story. Dana White might be a good president, but it seems as if he is a terrible leader and that could cost the UFC big time. White needs to trust the UFC's leadership group and allow them to succeed. Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know? You can email me at trent.reinsm...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #188 November 22, 2020

November 23, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes - 25.9 MB

Today's Topics: The UFC 255 might have been fun for Jon Anik, Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier might have been fun for them, but it was not enjoyable for those watching the pay-per-view event. Dana White once again oversteps his bounds by telling an independent contractor he won’t allow him to return to Brazil. White also ignores health and safety to make a UFC title fight with a quick turnaround. Why did the MMA media blow smoke up Dana White’s ass at the UFC 255 presser? The MMA media asked...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #187 November 19, 2020

November 20, 2020 11:00 - 13 minutes

Today’s Topics: I think Dana White is overstating the odds of Khabib Nurmagomedov fighting again and I think White is doing that because he believes money matters to the UFC lightweight champ. (0:46) Dana White is talking crazy. He wants fans at January events in Abu Dhabi and I don’t think there is a chance of that happening with COVID-19 numbers on the rise and Thanksgiving and Christmas on the horizon. (07:19) Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I s...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #186 November 18, 2020

November 19, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes

Today’s topics: I believe Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier will be for the interim UFC lightweight title. It took some big balls from Dana White to go after Bob Arum. White is not a fight promoter. He promotes the UFC for the overlords at Endeavor and the investors. He does not promote the fighters. Is Stephen Thompson’s theory about Khamzat Chimaev on the mark, or is it nuts? Jussier Formiga says more cuts are on the way. Jon Jones’ ego won’t allow him to retire by 35 and probably not ...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #184 November 16, 2020

November 17, 2020 04:07 - 17 minutes

Today’s topics: UFC released Jussier Formiga. I doubt he’s going to be the last really good, but just short of great fighter to be released. Again, the quality of UFC events will keep dropping until the ratings take a dump. Don’t pledge blind allegiance to the UFC. Sure, judging in MMA is a problem, but the bigger problem is the win/show pay. If fighters got a flat rate, they wouldn’t have to worry about a judge “costing” them. Point the finger at Dana White and the UFC and the stupid pay m...

C'mon Now MMA Podcast #183 November 15, 2020

November 16, 2020 11:00 - 14 minutes

Today’s topics: UFC Vegas 14 recap and memorable performances. (0:20) UFC Vegas 14 weigh-ins were a mess and the number of fighters who were pulled from the card made things even worse. The UFC needs to do more than pay lip service to weight cutting. Don't believe it can't do something. (06:40) It would be nice if Dana White addressed why Mike Perry is fighting at UFC 255 (13:20) Do you know something about UFC, USADA, an MMA manager or a fighter, that I should know?

November 12, 2020 11:00 - 13 minutes

Today's topics: No way should T.J. Dillashaw strut back into the UFC and get a No. 1contender fight or a title fight.(0:41) Fighters, fans and UFC employees should never forget that Dana White went all in for Donald Trump. What that means to me is that every time they see White they should think of Donald Trump and his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia and islamophobia and see the image of the UFC president.

Today’s topics: Conor McGregor either doesn’t know how to score a knockdown or is playing games just looking for a UFC record. If the UFC denied Conor McGregor fights, does he have any legal rights? If he does, he could help all UFC fighters. (4:49) Will the ESPN layoffs affect the UFC? Maybe, but it won’t force UFC in the layoffs.
