Brad Lewis and Stephen Foote are back this week to sink their teeth into a plethora of combat sports action, starting with last weekend's sensational UFC 322 in New York City.
It was a landmark evening for the welterweights at MSG, where Michael Morales and Carlos Prates kept their stocks soaring with highlight reel knockouts, before Islam Makhachev sealed the show with a dominant win over Jack Della Maddalena to claim the division's championship belt.

With New Zealand's beloved Dan Hooker back in action in Qatar this weekend, the boys analyse his chances of pulling off an upset victory over Arman Tsarukyan in the headline act in the Middle East. Can the Kiwi tip the lightweight division on its head and get his hand raised?

All that and more, including the fallout from the Joseph Parker situation, on this edition of your weekly pugilist fix.
