Episode 70: How To Catch A Spider
01:05:03|Originally exclusive to the Combat Chronicles Patreon I thought I'd drop this audio documentary as a special episode 70 for this here feed! Hopefully you enjoy it and feel transported back to 2013, when Chris Weidman showed exactly what it took to beat Anderson Silva, the man then seen as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC and the greatest 185lber of all time. How did he do it? Why did it mean so much? And what is Weidman's legacy as a fighter? With the help of some very special guests, I try my best to tell the story of one of the most incredible moments in UFC history.Episode 69: Crawford vs. Madrimov

20:41|Both champion and challenger were brilliant in the UFC 302 headliner, but Islam Makhachev ultimately prevailed over Dustin Poirier by fifth round submission. I look into what made this fight so great, why it was important that Dustin Poirier bettered some of his other losing performances, and why Makhachev is the best fighter plying his trade right now.For more fight analysis including an extended edition of this episode (looking at Sean Strickland's win over Paulo Costa and the entirety of the latest pugilistic Saudi sportswashing spectacular!) be sure to check out the Combat Chronicles Patreon right hereEpisode 65: Usyk is UNDISPUTED

02:39:58|How could I not devote a huge chunk of my waking hours this week to producing a near three-hour podcast all about one fight?! How could I not enlist some heavy hitters to talk about the biggest fight we will see all year?Well luckily for you, I did, as Rob Tebbutt of Boxing News and the boys from the Heavy Hands podcast helped me out trying to figure out just how this super-fight will play out.There's little point saying much else here as there's a LOT said in this episode: Tyson Fury versus Oleksandr Usyk will be upon us sooner than you manage to listen to this behemoth of an episode I expect. So enjoy the fight. As fights like these don't come around often.Episode 63: Max Holloway Meltdown
17:22|And that's exactly what I had, when Max Holloway did THAT at UFC 300!

31:01|As per the title of this episode, Ilia Topuria showed that his run to a championship fight was no fluke and he really was as well put-together as he looked, overcoming a typically tricky Alexander Volkanovski to smash him into oblivion in the second round. As the new champion will Topuria spark the interest of fans by taking on all-comers, or will he chase uninteresting 'super' fights against the likes of Conor McGregor? I look into the fight that everyone is talking about right now as well as what the future may hold for both Topuria and the now dethroned Volkanovski, and if you want to hear my thoughts about the rest of UFC 298 please head on over to the Combat Chronicles Patreon!
