The UFC and PFL both had a fairly poor night of judging but the UFC delivered by Apex standards a high quality card while the PFL struggled but thems the breaks with their season format.

This week the MMA world has PFL playoffs for the 170 and 145 lbs divisions. Who is heading to the finals?

Also the UFC returns to the APEX for UFC Vegas 96. The Main event of Jared Cannonier vs Caio Borralho is cool. And there's a litter of fights further down that promise some action along with the Ultimate Fighter Finales.

The PFL's 205 and 155 finals are set with mostly expected results. Biaggio Ali Walsh has another W. And a rare draw highlighted the PFL card this week.

In the UFC well the era of Dricus Du Plessis is firmly here. He vanquished Israel Adesanya in a pretty solid fight. I picked it to happen and I am still left confused.

The UFC heads down under for the first title defense of the Dricus Du Plessis era. He faces long time former Champion (and weird rival cause bizarre African debates) Isreal Adesanya.

A key Flyweight matchup between Kai Kara France and Steve Erceg serves as a popular co-main event along with veteran fighters from the region Dan Hooker and Tai Tuivasa fill out the main card.

The PFL finals at 205 and 155 lbs will also be determined this week.

UFC Vegas 95 has come and gone. Hell of a result in the main event and all hail Submission Ace Serghei Spivac and his glorious armbar. But the card was a great showing of UFC caliber fighting and there's an alarming number of fighters that I don't really want or see a future for in the UFC.

The UFC Apex card this week is stunningly bad. But I'm here to breakdown the fight anyways. I am looking forward to Mariscal/Jackson, Danny Barlow is a rising star and for Women's Bantamweight Santos/Chandler and Rosa/Kianzad are relevant quality fights. But that's about as complimentary as I'm getting.

I will talk about the Olympic Boxing controversy with Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting, if that doesn't interest you I do give warning before I head into it and I do discuss the UFC card fully before getting into it.

The Finals for the PFL Heavyweight and Women's Flyweight Brackets are set. Umar Nurmagomedov passed his main event test with pretty damn close to flying colors and Tony Ferguson might have retired. Or might not have.

Sorry for the low audio, I'm not sure what the cause, it just seems like the Microphone was a bit 50/50 on recording levels. I'm checking for loose connections. Anyways.....

UFC Abu Dhabi is this weekend headlined by Cory Sandhagen and Umar Nurmagomedov and supported by a lot of maybe good but also possible bad fights and the return of Tony Ferguson which you know I'm not excited for. So there's a big elevator for how good this card will be. Looking forward to the main event, looking forward to Vera/Figgy and low key hyped for Menifield/Murzakanov.

Plus PFL 7 is here and the Playoffs kick off. I will give you my quick picks for that card.
