UFC Fight Night: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes recap, heavyweight landscape w/ guest co-host Brett Okamoto - a podcast by UFC

On today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered, Matt Serra and Jim Norton are joined by ESPN MMA journalist Brett Okamoto for a detailed recap of last Saturday’s UFC Fight Night: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes event.

 

With heavyweight Sergei Pavlovich steamrolling Curtis Blaydes for a sixth-straight 1st-round knockout win, the guys discuss where Pavlovich stands in the heavyweight division and what it might take for the 30-year-old to secure a fight against legends like Jon Jones or Stipe Miocic.

 

Then, Jim takes the guys through the rest of Saturday’s fight results as Matt explains what he liked from fighters across the main card and prelims.

 

As the topic shifts to the Nevada State Athletic Commission and their decision to use instant replay and change Bobby Green’s stoppage win over Jared Gordon into a no contest, the guys engage in an insightful conversation about other problems with state athletic commissions in which Brett takes a hard stance against the idea that open scoring can fix the recent problem of poor scorecards from cage side judges.
