This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit bloodyelbowpodcast.substack.comThe UFC certainly lets you know when they care about an event and UFC 292 is a prime example of that. Two titles bouts crown the top of a star-studded card, filled with the potential for action and entertainment. Will Weili Zhang be able to defend the belt against a hungry Amanda Lemos?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit bloodyelbowpodcast.substack.comThis week, the UFC is back at the Apex, and trust us, it shows. The card technically has no ranked fights, even though there are ranked athletes facing each other—they just happen to be either moving down or up a division to meet their opponents. And at the top of this very Apex card, we have two men who’ve been fighting wars for most of their lengthy c…

UFC Apex: A whole lot of losers

2023/08/10

It will be a day of celebration if we ever get an Apex fight night card that actually looks good on paper and not just in practice, in spite of itself. That day is definitely NOT today. Just in case you were wondering, there are zero ranked fights on the undercard and of course, there are zero ranked fighters there. Bloody Elbow is fighting for the sport, the fighters and the fans.

To hear more, visit bloodyelbowpodcast.substack.comUFC Nashville will be directly competing with Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz, but fortunately, UFC had the foresight to throw together an above average event. The main event is going to be an absolute firecracker. Rob Font wasn’t the original opponent, that was Umar Nurmagomedov, who had to withdraw with an injury, so we are being treated to a catchweight bout…

It’s not PPV quality either, but it’s befitting of what a London card should be—loads of fun matches with recognizable names interspersed with rising prospects.

They seem to put in a little more effort when a show is on the road—a far cry from the Fight Night fodder we’ve been getting. That said, we don’t want to gild the proverbial lily here.

There’s very little in the way of impactful fights, name value or the promise of entertainment. It’s like Sean Shelby and Mick Maynard put names in a hat and threw together whomever they drew out. There is one blessing on the prelims, though, and his name is Jack Della Maddalena. The Bloody Elbow Pod…

It’s been so long since we’ve been treated to a truly worthwhile card, we’re just bubbling over. The main card is loaded with a pair of title fights and a title eliminator. The prelims are equally praiseworthy with the retirement fight of Robbie Lawler after a 22-year career filled with amazing knockouts and bloody battles.Thank you for listening to this Bloody Elbow Podcast.

UFC Vegas 75 is not loaded with ranked fights (just one) or even ranked fighters (just three), but it does have some redeeming qualities. A solid main event in Marvin Vettori and Jared Cannonier and a spate of flyweight and bantamweight fights. It would be nice if all those fights weren’t restricted to the confines of the prelims, but hey, we’re still getting flyweight fights, and for that, we should count ourselves grateful.Thank you for listening to Bloody Elbow Podcasts.

In fact, it's solid enough that it's kind of a shame that it's not on PPV. Otherwise, much like the main card, the quality drop-off here is steep. The stakes are low, the prospects are minimal, hopefully the quality of the action will …
