MK is back and the guys have a ton of MMA news to breakdown. Luke and Brian react to Dana White's recent rant about MMA media (5:15) and preview what's to come for the UFC in January with a massive Fight Island 2 event that includes Holloway vs. Kattar, Edwards vs. Chimaev, and McGregor vs. Poirier 2 all in a 7 day span (28:00). Plus, Anthony Pettis is now a free agent (37:37), Michael Chandler vs. Dan Hooker is in the works (42:32) and Amanda Nunes vs Megan Anderson finally has a new date (53:30). Also, Jermall Charlo says he will go up to 168-lbs to fight Canelo Alvarez. Is that the fight to make (1:01:00)?
