Spinning Back Clique LIVE (noon ET): Roman Dolidze's big win, Nate Diaz eyes UFC return, UFC London preview, more
Check out this week’s “Spinning Back Clique,” MMA Junkie’s weekly live show that takes a spin through the biggest topics in mixed martial arts.
This week’s panel of Brian “Goze” Garcia, Mike Bohn and Danny Segura will join host “Gorgeous” George Garcia live at noon ET (9 a.m. PT) to discuss and debate the following topics:
- Roman Dolidze made a big step Saturday. The veteran middleweight contender defeated former title challenger Marvin Vettori in a unanimous decision in the main event of UFC Fight Night 254. After the win, Dolidze (14-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) called out Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker. Should the UFC consider those requests? We react to Dolidze’s win and what may come next for him.
- From key bookings to bold comments, several things went down in last week’s new cycle. Top prospect Bo Nickal (7-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) got his first ranked opponent, as he takes on former ONE dual champion Reinier de Ridder (19-2 MMA, 2-0 UFC). Combat sports star Nate Diaz discussed his interest in returning to the UFC, while also criticizing the promotion for its lack of star power. We react to the recent news.
- The UFC returns to London this Saturday with UFC Fight Night 255. Former UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards takes on top contender Sean Brady in the main event. We break down this key welterweight clash, along with other bouts on the card.
- To close out the show, well be doing a live fan Q&A where you’ll get your chance to ask a question and have it answered by the panelist. To submit a question to the show, simply submit it on the YouTube Live Chat. The best submissions will be displayed.
