Walk Out Network's video: The Living Death Show Ep 147: Full of Sound and Fury Signifying Nothing

So is over, but what the hell did we learn from it? One of the most chaotic weeks in UFC history served up plenty of surprises, but left more questions unanswered than ever before. Is Nate Diaz really done with the UFC? Is Khamzat Chimaev any closer to a title shot than he was before? Was Irene Aldana's incredible upkick enough to jump the line at 135? Ant, Jay, and Ben tackle those questions and many, many more, before looking ahead to and other happenings in the world of combat sports. 0:00 Welcome ---------- ELIAS THEODOROU (1988-2022) ---------- 1:48 Elias Theodorou, UFC veteran, InvictaFC "ring boy," and medical cannabis advocate, passed away Sunday at age 34, after a battle with liver cancer which he kept secret. How will you remember the man and the fighter? ---------- UFC 279 MADNESS ---------- 9:47 One of the UFC's strangest pay-per-view events ever, UFC 279 featured a last-minute reshuffling of the top three fights. Were the fights better for it? Was the card better, and can it be called a success or failure based on the results as we know them so far? 11:16 Jay's Stat of the Week: 208, as in...so close, but not quite 13:20 Did Khamzat Chimaev's huge weight miss and subsequent behavior hurt his title prospects? Disagreement ensues! 17:58 How did UFC 279 compare to other historically disastrous UFC events? 19:55 [Jay Rant] The overblown backstage brawl, the weight miss, Chimaev's over-the-top heel promos...they're just too much for Mr. Pettry. ---------- NATE DIAZ ---------- 30:20 Nate Diaz somehow managed to come out of UFC 279 looking heroic. Is he done with the UFC, or will he be back? If he's gone, will he fight elsewhere? Again, disagreement among the panel, this time over whether another promotion can or would come up with the kind of coin Diaz requires. ---------- IRENE ALDANA ----------- 41:13 Irene Aldana scored a one-of-a-kind knockout at UFC 279, finishing Macy Chiasson with an upkick to the liver. Was it enough to jump the line at bantamweight and earn her a shot at Amanda Nunes? If so, how much of a chance does she have? ---------- QUICK HITS ---------- 45:47 Norma Dumont, Jailton Almeida, Johnny Walker ---------- CHRIS BARNETT ---------- 50:10 "Beast Boy" scored a second-round TKO of Jake Collier at UFC 279, then delivered an unforgettable interview. How lucky are we to have him? Ben rants...at length. ---------- I'M NOT SURPRISED, MISTER FALCONS ---------- 55:20 [Jay] Thiago Santos signs with PFL 58:07 [Ben] Tony Ferguson thinks it's going great 1:02:02 [Ant] Nate Diaz sounds off on the UFC's new footwear partner 1:02:53 [Ant] MMA Twitter does some good, for once. Ant asks a bonus question about MMA social platforms. ---------- UFC VEGAS 60 ----------- 1:09:13 The UFC is back at the Apex with a surprisingly loaded card, topped by Cory Sandhagen and Song Yadong. What's good? Ant asks for dick jokes; Ben obliges.
