Fighting for the first time in the 14 months since suffering a career-threatening eye injury that temporarily blinded him, UFC heavyweight Ilir Latifi joins the show with his thoughts on whether the brief time he shared training at American Top Team with Aleksei Oleinik affects Saturday’s fight between the two heavyweight veterans.

As Ilir pitches Matt on joining him in his post-retirement plans of hosting a TV show about the outdoors, Jim explains why he’s content with limiting his travel to hotels.

With Jim and Matt split over whether Mackenzie Dern will beat Yan Xiaonan, women’s strawweight Tabatha Ricci shares how sparring with Dern has equipped both friends with the tools needed to end their respective fights on Saturday night with their hands raised.
