    I have about 30-40 podcasts I rotate through every week and this is simply my favorite 1-1.5 hrs. I am most definitely MMA leaning as opposed to boxing, but as long as there is a good balance, I can’t not tune in. Great work Luke

    I always knew of Luke but just never really watched his videos. Stumbled across this and i just wanna say this kind of content is 5/5 absolute gold.
    Was beginning to run out of high quality mma news / media / analysis (I mainly watch Ariel and TheWeasle) and so glad to have found your channel. Finally have something else to watch during dinner haha.
    With the level of insight you have into the sport and it's history, and me being into the history of things in general, could you touch on what "mma" was like before UFC 1, especially the vale tudo days in Brazil, the prevalence of bjj and public opinion / view of martial arts before that first UFC event and combat sports trends over time during the 20th century.

      I've had so many issues with ESPN + And UFC app. Both apps are garbage for watching any live sport on. Everytime I use one or the other they lag like crazy, the picture quality I pay for is 4K, but get 360p. Pixelated like watching on youtube lowest video settings so the video can stream. Always feels like the production is done by a grad student who took editing as a second minor as a backup so they wouldn't fail out of school. The tecks say clear the cache and reinstall the apps, but does absoluely nothing. I got sick of paying for 2 apps to see a full mma event. Not paying for either again. You pay for almost half of an event with both apps, but get apex junk events all the time, or power shite slap. Who the heck cares. Dana goes off about his power garbage is #1 in the world........only in his dementia rittled mind. I wouldn't take any memorabillia from that idiocracy so called sport.

      He brings them up with no receipts after the fact bc he’s already shown the receipts, or directed you directly to the receipts.

    No, jon wasn't right about that. Name one. Name one guy everybody said 'this is the guy to beat jon jones.' there were some ppl who thought DC 'could' beat him leading up to their 1st fight. Same with gane. But myself & most ppl I know literally thought jon should/would win every fight he's been in since Shogun. (& the proof of this is in the fact the 1 time vegas opened up with jones an underdog, against gane, by fight night jon was the favorite.) The idea that there've been 'all these guys' built up to beat jon is absurd & untrue

      It was definitely said. With Gus, DC and Gane. It was even said that he couldn’t move to heavyweight.
      I don’t know how you can call yourself a fight fan feel years ago and not know that.

      Most people thought Jon lost to Reyes, so it's not unreasonable to doubt him against e.g. Aspinall.

      bro you can’t make claims and then base them exclusively off of anecdotal evidence (“me and everyone I knew believed 
”). Objectively, your comment is simply false. There were multiple, different personalities/analyst who (on record) believed Gus, DC, Santos and Reyes would be the one to unseat Jon Bones Jones. I always find it funny when I see people online so confidently, almost arrogantly, making statements that are just straight up incorrect😂😂
