179 - Shut Up, Get Out - UFC Norfolk

We are a day late this week to break down UFC Fight Night 169 from Norfolk, Virginia. We talk about the future of the flyweight division after the result of Deiveson Figueiredo defeating Joseph Benavidez but not being awarded the championship since he did not make weight. We also break down the rest of the card including the strange stoppage by Kevin MacDonald in the Ion Cutelaba vs Magomed Ankalaev. We preview UFC 248, headlined by Israel Adesanya defending his middleweight championship against Yoel Romero. We also talk about people getting ejected from Disney World, fight gear from Ripe Life 1 and drinking Eagle Rare bourbon. Cheers!
