Can a melee be a good thing? UFC 229 antics, MLB playoffs and NFL week 4
After a post-fight melee in the main event at UFC 229, mixed martial arts comes into focus on this week’s episode of Just Another Sports Podcast. Did the sport really suffer at all from the antics of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor before, during or after their fight? Or was it all just part of the spectacle that helps drive big business for the UFC? Sports editor Josh Smith, features editor Colin McGuire and host Greg Swatek weigh in on this. Plus, the guys reflect on the NFL weekend that was, chat about the baseball playoffs and preview the upcoming NBA season. Greg also grills Josh about his first weekend in a long time without live Minnesota Vikings football.
