A new episode of BJPENN.COM Radio is here, Penn Nation!
Our first guest is good friend of the show and one of the realest guys in the business, Jorge Masvidal. “Gamebred” is back to discuss a recent callout by Leon Edwards. Masvidal has been planning to make his return to action this summer and has been seeking a dance partner. Is Leon Edwards the fight Masvidal is after? Not exactly. But “Gamebred” is more than willing to face the Englishmen and we’ll get an update on his plans moving forward. We’ll also get Jorge’s reaction to his longtime friend and team-mate Colby Covington capturing the interim title at UFC 225.
Always entertaining both inside and out of the Octagon, “Platinum” Mike Perry returns to give us his exclusive reaction to the news of Yancy Medeiros pulling out of their highly-anticipated showdown at UFC 226. We’ll also discuss the options for replacement that are in the works, and if Mike has any preference as to who that replacement is.
Arguably the hottest prospect in the UFC right now, No. 11 ranked light-heavyweight and pure finisher, Dominick Reyes. “The Devastator” joins us to discuss his callout of former title challenger Ovince St-Preux over the weekend, and how likely it is that OSP accepts the offer. We’ll also discuss Dom’s other options should OSP decline, and how he plans to remain on track for his 18-month takeover of the division.
Former UFC veteran, TUF alumni, best-selling author, and a man set to make his PFL debut on July 5th, Eddie “Truck” Gordon joins us to preview his upcoming fight with Shamil Gamzatov in Washington, D.C. We’ll get his thoughts on the PFL and the excitement attached to this game-changing league. We’ll also discuss the journey Eddie has been on since leaving the UFC, how it was all a blessing in disguise, and the benefits of training at Serra-Longo from the inception of his career.
Closing out this episode we are joined by the aforementioned Hawaiian warrior set to face Mike Perry next weekend, Yancy Medeiros. We’ll also preview the fight from Yancy’s perspective and discuss how he visualizes this war playing out. We’ll hear his thoughts on the co-main event at UFC 226 and what his training camp has been like preparing alongside Max Holloway. Two big wins for Hawaii on July 7th? Another parade?
