Show Notes
Javier opens up about everything surrounding the Nurmagomedov team after a wild few weeks in the UFC.

He also addresses the shocking UFC Shanghai fallout, including Umar’s devastating knockout loss to Song Yadong and the controversy surrounding Usman Nurmagomedov entering the cage afterward.
Plus, Javier gets candid about Khabib, AKA, loyalty, Dana White, the Nurmagomedov family and whether Islam should continue fighting while he's at the top of the sport.
