On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the ongoing saga between the UFC and one of its most popular fighters, if Strickland has any leverage at all, and predicting the outcome. Additionally, topics may include Alex Pereira's recent comments about Daniel Cormier, UFC Edmonton this Saturday headlined by a pivotal welterweight clash between Joaquin Buckley and Mike Malott, other news and notes, and much more.

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 - 3199 - BTL | Conor McGregor's Disastrous Return, UFC 329 Fallout, Busy Weekend Ahead
Conor McGregor's return to the UFC octagon could not have gone worse this past Saturday as his main event matchup with Max Holloway ended abruptly after McGregor suffered an injury. Is this the end for McGregor, or will he return for one more walk — and if he does, will anybody buy into it? On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the UFC 329 main event, the buzzkill of it all, and where both McGregor and Holloway go from their closing act in Las Vegas. Additionally, they talk Paddy Pimblett's big win and quick submission in the co-main event, other standout moments from UFC 329, a busy weekend ahead in the combat sports world, Dricus du Plessis facing Kamaru Usman in the main event of UFC Oklahoma City, Arman Tsarukyan taking on Colby Covington at RAF 11, Ben Askren's return, PFL heads to Austin, and more.

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 - 3197 - On To The Next One: What’s Next For Max Holloway, Conor McGregor, Paddy Pimblett After UFC 329?
Max Holloway and Conor McGregor’s rematch at UFC 329 raises just as many questions as it provided answers. The former UFC champions met in a rematch 13 years in the making, with McGregor returning to action for the first time since 2021, but there was little satisfaction for either fighter as McGregor was forced to bow out with an apparent knee injury just 69 seconds into the contest. Holloway got the win, but didn’t get the chance to put on a bounce-back performance after his recent loss to Charles Oliveira. And McGregor? He didn’t even get to fight and with one more bout left on his UFC contract and potentially another long layoff ahead of him, his future is murkier than ever. On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss where Holloway and McGregor can possibly go from here, with both fighters likely done for 2026. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Paddy Pimblett, who arguably stole the show with a stunning submission of Benoit Saint Denis, plus main card winners Mario Bautista, Brandon Royval, and King Green. We also dig into the prelims to figure out what’s next for Robert Whittaker in his light heavyweight journey, and how the UFC should build blue-chip heavyweight prospect Gable Steveson. Plus, the fellas take your matchmaking suggestions at the end of the show. Follow Mike Heck: @m_heckjr Follow Alexander K.
