Is there anything better than MK the Monday after a monster UFC card? This week, Luke and Brian have you covered with a full recap from this weekends big UFC 307 event. First, Alex Pereira outslugs Khalil Rountree Jr. to defend LHW title in the main event. By breaking Ronda Rousey's promotional record with 3 title defenses in just 176 days, did Alex Pereira prove once and for all on Saturday that he's the most valuable fighter on the UFC roster? What type of adjustments did Pereira make to offset the strong start from Rountree and 2-0 hole on all 3 scorecards? Did Rountree successfully shatter pre-fight takes regarding his unworthiness for the title shot by how exciting he fought and how much punishment he was able to endure? What's next for Poatan after moving into 3rd place tie with Daniel Cormier with 3rd LHW title defense? Plus, on the women's side, Julianna Pena becomes a 2-time bantamweight champion and Kayla Harrison cements top contender status with a win. did you score Pena-Pennington and is there a legitimate case for Pena's disputed victory?

Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Another massive MK Monday coming your way. The guys are in studio with tons to talk about. In boxing, Daniel Dubois upsets Anthony Joshua in an absolutely one-sided demolition to defend IBF heavyweight title with a 5th round KO. For all the talk coming in about AJ's rejuvenation and newfound mean streak, how badly did the guys overlook Dubois' exact same transformation over his last two fights? The Wembley Stadium fight set new UK record of over 98,000 in wild atmosphere. What does this performance say about Dubois' future chances against the rest of the division? Plus, it's about time that we wake up to the fact that we are living in the midst of one of the greatest heavyweight eras in boxing history. Also, Dana White tells Irish media ahead of Friday's Callum Walsh homecoming in Dublin regarding future in boxing: "I'm in". Given teases of "Shake Turkey" partnership in 2025, it's hard to imagine Dana/UFC's involvement in boxing will be small. But considering Dana told Irish media of his plans, "I'm HBO, that's the way I would look at it," what type of impact could TKO/Endeavor have in the boxing market?   In MMA news, Sean O'Malley declares himself still the undefeated UFC champion after UFC 306 rewatch, where he scored it 3-2 for himself. Is O'Malley pulling this public stunt because he's a sore loser, or he's angling for an immediate rematch or he's just trying to make compelling YouTube content? Does O'Malley's torn hip labrum reveal and subsequent surgery better explain his poor performance against Merab Dvalishvili? Or does it take away from Merab?   Finally, the guys make a huge announcement that you Donks wont want to miss. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Monday after a HUGE weekend of fights, there is nothing better than MORNING KOMBAT. BC and Luke are back in studio to recap all the action at UFC 306 and Canelo vs. Berlanga. First in the UFC, Merab Dvalishvili easily bested Sean O'Malley to become the UFC bantamweight champion. UFC President Dana White said O'Malley looked flat. What's the guys theory as to why he appeared this way? What is it about Merab's story that makes him so unique? Valentina Shevchenko definitively won the trilogy against Alex Grasso, but how surprisingly one sided was it? Did the Sphere live up to the hype? In boxing, Canelo Alvarez had little trouble with Edgar Berlanga, but failed to put him away. Is Berlanga better than we thought or is Canelo slowing down? Is there really any interest in a Bivol rematch? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We are HERE Donks! No better way to spend a Thursday then with a special episode of MORNING KOMBAT. BC and Luke are back in studio to preview this upcoming weekend of combat sports and discuss the biggest news in the game. First, the guys preview this weekends UFC Apex card, headlined by Gilbert Burns vs. Sean Brady! How much elite gas is left in tank of 38-year-old Burns, fresh off two losses (and KO defeat to Jack Della?) Did Brady prove last time out vs. Gastelum that he fixed the striking glitch from Belal Muhammad KO loss? Next, Alex Pereira continues his bid for "one more" middleweight fight vs. DDP. Is this the right move at 37 for Pereira to cut back down in weight considering his ambition to become 3-division champion at heavyweight? Also, UFC ran a playful "Jon Jones is GOAT" ad during DWCS (plus insane KO highlight). From lengthy debate with Kevin Iole and other media last week over Jones P4P slot to this commercial, is Dana having fun with us by playing into his own absurdity? And what's your best guess as to why he won't stop praising Jon? In boxing, Turki Alalshikh announces new PPV price point as Dana White teases boxing partnership. Alalshikh wants $20 boxing PPVs to combat streaming. Will it work? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Another Monday, another HUGE MK as the boys are back to FULL STRENGTH with BC and Luke both in studio for the first time all month. It wasn't a huge weekend of combat sports but the guys have a lot to get to, nonetheless. At UFC Vegas 96, should Caio Borralho been awarded a stoppage victory over Jared Cannonier? What else stood out from the card? Now that PFL has officially started promoting Francis Ngannou vs. Renan Ferreira, what do the guys think about this fight? Tom Aspinall is going as close to scorched earth as he can when it comes to Jon Jones. Will this work in getting Jones to fight him (assuming he beats Stipe Miocic)? Why is Dana White so curiously in the tank for a fighter he’s routinely been at odds with? Shakur Stevenson has signed a two-fight deal with Matchroom Boxing and has his first fight on the card in Saudi Arabia in October. Was this a wise decision and, realistically, what is a likely second fight? Luke and BC also look ahead to Let’s to September 14th which sees #caneloberlanga going up against UFC 306.

Another amazing MK is coming your way this Monday as Luke is back from vacation and joined by the one and only, man in the hat, Chuck Mindenhall to break down everything that happened at UFC 305. First, Dricus du Plessis defeated Israel Adesanya via submission in the fourth round. What does a victory like this prove about du Plessis? What does a loss like this do to Adesanya's legacy? What should be next for du Plessis? Sean Strickland? Robert Whittaker? Khamzat Chimaev? Or Alex Pereira at 185 or 205? Kai-Kara France blew right past Steve Erceg in Saturday's co-main event. Does this make KKF the top UFC flyweight contender? Did Erceg take this fight too close to his war with Alexandre Pantoja? Dan Hooker somehow turned back the clock against the smothering Mateusz Gamrot. This likely pushes him into or close to the top 5. What fight makes the most sense next for him? Lastly, Tai Tuivasa lost his fifth straight fight in the UFC, dropping a lackluster decision to Jairzinho Rozenstruik. Is there any real fix for what ails him? Can we talk about how insane that scorecard from judge Howie Booth was? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In the main event, Belal Muhammad made sure his name would be remembered in history by upsetting Leon Edwards for the welterweight title (and breaking Luke's 35-and-over title curse). In the co-main, Tom Aspinall needed just 60 seconds to demolish Curtis Blaydes in their rematch to defend the interim title before the respectful callout of Jon Jones.
