Josh Nason’s Punch-Out: ESPN’s Brett Okamoto on Hendricks vs. Wonderboy, UFC free agency madness
With such a busy week in the world of cagefighting and with an event scheduled for Las Vegas Saturday night, the 32nd edition of Josh Nason’s Punch-Out flew virtually to the Nevada desert to catch up with ESPN.com MMA writer Brett Okamoto.
Also, this is a free show so share it and help a guy out, won’t you?
For an hour, Josh and Brett wrestled with such issues as:
– Has Brett ever gone to work with a strep throat?
– Does he care about the possiblity of the Las Vegas Raiders?
– Where he was when he got the call from ESPN and the changes with the MMA department since he’s been there
– His thoughts on Benson Henderson’s departure to Bellator and what it could signal for MMA free agency in the future
– Where Josh hopes Alistair Overeem, Matt Mitrione, and Aljamain Sterling will land
– The plight of Sage Northcutt, whether he should have even fought Saturday, and the fallout online from his loss
– What do you do with Cain Velasquez next?
– The prospect of Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier II
– The California weight cutting changes and whether it actually means anything for the UFC
– A look ahead at UFC Fight Night Saturday with Johny Hendricks vs. Stephen Thompson, Roy Nelson’s prospects, interesting fights
