Adesanya, Romero, Mighty Mouse, Felder, Spencer, M. Anderson, More - a podcast by ESPN, Ariel Helwani, Daniel Cormier

The UFC flyweights should stick around, Ariel says, despite the controversial weekend for the division in Norfolk.

Yoel Romero, the challenger in this upcoming weekend's UFC 248 headliner, talks about his emotions heading into the fight, his hectic fight week schedule, his weight cut and what it would mean for the 42-year-old to finally hold the UFC middleweight belt (40:10). Next, another winner from Norfolk, featherweight Megan Anderson, tells Ariel why she should be the one to face Nunes and also discusses her upcoming color commentary opportunity for Friday's Invicta FC event, which will feature open scoring (57:55). Former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson then talks about the state of the division he once ruled, what he would do about the flyweight division if he were the one running the UFC, as well as Henry Cejudo's recent behavior (1:13:13). Next, almost two weeks after his tough loss at UFC Auckland, lightweight Paul Felder talks about how he's feeling, if the judges should have awarded him the victory over Dan Hooker, his future and how he's drowned his sorrows in gluttony since the loss (1:32:17). Deron Winn, who also fights at UFC 248, previews his fight before talking about his relationship with Daniel Cormier (1:52:24). After that, Luis Pena, who recently reunited with his biological brother and father via Ancestry, talks about his win in Norfolk and how it felt even better to do it in front of his long-lost family members (2:09:50). Lastly, the UFC middleweight champion himself Israel Adesanya discusses his winning of a very special award in New Zealand, the positives and negatives of stardom, his preparation for UFC 248, walkout plans, recent controversial comments he's made, the latest between he and Jon Jones and much more (2:27:40).
