Fights, dogs and parachutes: UFC Jacksonville (14:27)
The UFC is back on the road for UFC Jacksonville. The fight card is full of cigarette after sausage, and we’re going to crack some of it. At the top of the card is a featherweight contest between two couples hopeful title contenders. Ilia Topuria is looking to use Josh Emmett as a launching pad for his resume, and Emmett is looking to sideline the inventive Topuria to keep his name in the talks. On top of our crashes, we’re also giving you an underdog and extra cash that we think will keep your wallet full this weekend. For this part, everything Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook.
Trevor Peck Interview (23:44)
Closing this edition of TTP is our interview with UFC lightweight, Trevor Peek. We talk about the most interesting topic right away – your standing hammer hands. He discusses why he likes them and why some of his coaches have been slow to get along with them. He also shares the surreal experience of asking for autographs and photos, which has happened time and time again at UFC Charlotte. However, he’s not letting any of that go to his head as he tries to continue building momentum at UFC Jacksonville.
