Don't say the boys aren't dedicated...Henry and Kamaru jump online for a quick record during a heavy travel week. On the docket is a walk down memory lane as they both reminisce on their time in USA Wrestling Junior Nationals over in Fargo, ND, where Henry is currently.

Kamaru gives us an insider view straight from his seat at the analysts table during UFC Fight Night in Denver last week. Thug Rose stole the show, Henry's cracking an egg on his head, and Kamaru has been impressed by a relatively new rising star in Montel Jackson, who had met the Nigerian Nightmare years ago.

This weekend is another sneaky good card... more than a couple fights have the guys excited. Bias aside, Mohammed Usman opening the Prelims with a heavyweight bout sets the stage for an eventful evening. Some old favorites are resurfacing... read: The Korean Superboy is back in action. Bruno Silva vs. Cody Durden is another one to keep an eye on. And in the very same night, Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry step inside the ring.

Beyond Saturday's UFC and Boxing events, there are a few distant and not-yet official matchups that, despite both those adjectives, are worth a quick word... and best of all, Kamaru gives us his take on what a potential WW opponent looks like for his return.

To close out the call the guys debate their Olympic matchups in a randomized Decathlon of sports outside of wrestling; Shot Put, 100m Sprint, Gymnastics, 100m Freestyle, Beach Volleyball, Ping Pong, Tennis, Breakdancing, Diving and Golf. Kamaru leaves as heavy favorite...

Enjoy.

Before the guys get into it this week, there are a couple of recent outfits that needed to be addressed... Frozone and a nude captain America make their cases.

Then, Kamaru and Henry offer some insight into the artist's struggle, commenting in particular on Alex Pereira and Shakur Stevenson. How frustrating is it to succeed in the cage only to be met with criticism and doubt outside of it? Triple C is a master at ignoring the hate, but not everyone copes so naturally. Case in point: the hate that Kamaru got for his "30%" statement back in the day, which caused him to stay offline for a few days.

Not everyone takes a break from the internet though... enter: Shakur Stevenson's Twitter. The guys stumbled upon an "It Is What It Is" segment where hosts Mase and Cam'ron fired seven straight minutes of damage at the WBO Super Featherweight, in response to a few tweets Shakur posted earlier in the week. Kamaru and Henry offer sage words to Shakur, from the fighter's perspective. Criticism is inevitable, knowing how to ignore it, and even use it, is essential to success.

Okay - time to address Saturday Night Fight Night in Denver Colorado. Tracy Cortez is taking on Rose Namajunas and this one hits close to home.

Kamaru and Rose are old teammates, and he's seen enough power from the former UFC champion to know she can beat nearly anybody. On the flip side of that coin, Henry trains every day with Tracy Cortez out in AZ, the young star is even living with his brother as she trains for Saturday's matchup. In other words: the P4P podcast is split on Namajunas vs. Cortez.

Net Net: SOMEONE'S CRACKING AN EGG ON THEIR HEAD.

Yes, it's true. Kamaru backs Namajunas, Henry backs Cortez, and loser takes an egg to the dome.

There are plenty of other fights to be excited about this week, too. The guys break down a few of the other matchups they're excited about. And, even a few that never happened. Stay tuned until the end to hear about Kamaru and Henry's top "Fight That Never Was."

Enjoy!

Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo jump into the studio to react to an exciting professional boxing bout that hosted a ton of impressive names, inside and outside the ring.

Five years ago, Masvidal bested Diaz in the octagon and a beef was born. After an increasingly tense promotional tour that included a street brawl between Diaz and Masvidal crews, the former UFC stars, known for their striking and ability to endure pain, squared up for 10 rounds in the ring. When the final bell rang, Diaz got the nod after what many viewers felt was a neck and neck fight, with Masvidal landing some hard-hitting blows but Diaz taking them in stride and playing the numbers game to out-strike his way to victory.

The headliner wasn't the only bout that delivered; the undercard had multiple stars at all places in their career. The Co-Main Event matched up Daniel Jacobs and Shane Mosley Jr., where the son of Sugar Shane Mosley pulled off a dominant win over the former Middleweight Champion. Also on the card was former champion Anthony Pettis and rising star Curmel Moton, who is backed by Floyd Mayweather.
