Walk Out Network's video: Unleashed Ep 54: sTiCk To SpOrTs

Ant, Jay, and Ben dive into the aftermath of UFC Vegas 11, Colby Covington's dominant performance in the cage and all of the post-fight drama. The panel addresses the lingering questions: In this new reality, is it even possible to "stick to sports," and even if possible, is it desirable or ethical? 0:00 Welcome 1:00 Jay's Stat of the Week: One. Before Saturday's main event, there had never been a UFC fight that ended in an injury TKO after the third round. Now there has been one. ---------- UFC VEGAS 11: "CHAOS" ---------- 1:35 However you feel about Colby Covington, Dana White, President Trump or any of the other principals, MMA has become explicitly political to a greater extent than ever before. What do you say to those who believe sports should be apolitical, escapist entertainment? 7:05 [Ant Rant] Sports, like every other entertainment industry, have always been political. If you think they aren't, can't be or shouldn't be, that's your privilege showing. ---------- UFC VEGAS 11: "COLBY" ---------- 24:02 With his completely dominant performance in the cage on Saturday, how many more wins does Covington need before he gets another welterweight title shot? ---------- CHOOSE & PERISH ---------- 33:30 After Saturday's fights, you MUST force either Tyron Woodley or Donald Cerrone to retire. Whom do you pick and why? Choose and perish! ---------- KHAMZAT CHIMAEV ---------- 44:18 After Chimaev's one-punch destruction of a pretty good UFC middleweight on Saturday, the promotion appears to be wavering on Demian Maia as the next opponent for the scorching-hot prospect. If not Maia, whom should Chimaev fight next? ---------- SWING OR MISS ---------- 53:57 Can Mackenzie Dern win a UFC title? ---------- I'M NOT SURPRISED, MISTER FALCONS ---------- 59:54 [Ben] Randa Markos' colossal gaffe was the worst of several on Saturday, and one of the worst ever. 1:03:33 [Jay] Darrick Minner is just the most recent of the "journeymen" to get a call up to the UFC this summer and show himself to be a little more than that. With a guillotine. 1:05:45 [Ant] Daniel Cormier revealed that he had a positive COVID-19 test ahead of the Miocic fight. ---------- MICHAEL CHANDLER ---------- 1:06:46 What do we think of the longtime Bellator lightweight champ's UFC "debut" being a standby for the Khabib-Gaethje fight? ---------- SPEED BAG!!! ---------- 1:13:53 Will you be watching the Bellator Italy card this weekend? 1:15:00 Did the UFC make the right call releasing longtime 125/135 contender John Dodson? 1:15:27 Frank Mir is in BKFC now. Whom should he fight first? ---------- UFC 253 LOOKAHEAD ---------- 1:17:26 The UFC is back at Yas Island for another month of shows, starting with UFC 253. What's your pick for FOTN? 1:20:20 Who you got? Kai Kara-France vs. Brandon Royval / Dominick Reyes vs. Jan Blachowicz / Israel Adesanya vs. Paulo Costa
