UFC Brasilia and Bellator 241 Previews, Rapid Fire Fight Roundup, Coronavirus Cancellations, Interim Titles of the Week, and more - a podcast by The Athletic

Shaun and Chuck take a look at UFC Brasilia, likely the best non-pay-per-view UFC card of the year so far, and break down an intriguing matchup between Kevin Lee and Charles Oliveira in the main event, with a lot at stake for both fighters. Before that, the guys each pick an undercard bout that most stands out to them.
Then, the guys preview a grappler’s delight Welterweight bout in the co-main event between Demian Maia and Gilbert Burns, two fighters at much different points in their careers, and discuss whether Demian Maia belongs in the UFC Hall of Fame.After the break, the guys preview a sneaky-good Bellator 241 card featuring Patricio Pitbull vs. Pedro Carvalho, Daniel Weichel vs. Emmanuel Sanchez, Paul Daley vs. Sabah Homasi, as well as names like Nick Newell, Anatoly Tokov, Matt Mitrione, Leslie Smith, and Baby Slice.
Plus, the guys discuss possible fight cancellations and/or relocations as the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread. And, to close out the show, the guys say “yeah” or “meh” to a bunch of recently announced fights during the Rapid Fire Fight Roundup, and they hand out their Interim Titles of the Week.Save 40% on an annual subscription to The Athletic when you visit http://theathletic.com/MATMLearn more about your ad choices.
