About the episode

The Suga Show has landed in Boston and man, are we excited. Petesy Carroll, Chuck Mindenhall, and TST break down Saturday's UFC 292 in a litany of ways, getting into the following topics on today’s episode:

  • Why this UFC bantamweight title fight between Aljamain Sterling and Sean O’Malley is so compelling (9:20)
  • What the future with O’Malley as champion would look like (23:14)
  • An interesting stylistic matchup between Zhang Weili and Amanda Lemos in the UFC strawweight title fight and whether the winner’s reward is the terrifying Tatiana Suarez (31:43)
  • Whether Ian Machado Garry can come even close to capturing the hearts of Irish fans like his idol Conor McGregor did 10 years ago with a win over Neil Magny this weekend (42:21)

Plus, is it possible the UFC will finally announce McGregor vs. Michael Chandler this weekend? Oh, and the guys answer some fun questions from our Discord.

To purchase TST’s new book, 'Surrender: A Guide to Living Your Best Life in Your Twenties,' check out the paperback on Barnes & Noble or the e-book on Amazon. The Amazon paperback will be made available internationally tomorrow.
