The latest UFC fight night was supposed to have a violent main event featuring Rafael Fiziev and Mateusz Gamrot. It was heading that way until Fiziev suffered a nasty leg injury, ending the fight in the second round.
Following the bout, Fiziev said he suffered a torn ACL, a huge blow for the UFC and its lightweight division. Can the two run it back next year if Fiziev heals up quickly?
Also on the card, Bryce Mitchell beat Dan Ige in a close fight. Did Mitchell deserve the win? What’s next for the unique fighter who brought a Bible to the octagon?

Speaking of belts, Catterall and Peet look into Johnny Eblen’s successful title defense against Fabian Edwards. Further in the episode, Catterall and Peet discuss the return of Paddy Pimblett at UFC 296, which looks to be a stacked card on December 16.
