BTL | Umar Nurmagomedov Shines, Topuria vs. Holloway Tops UFC 308 Lineup, Ngannou's MMA Return Set

A slew of massive #MMA bouts were announced for both the #UFC and #PFL featuring some of the sport's biggest and rising stars. In the main event of #UFC308 in Abu Dhabi, Ilia Topuria defends the featherweight title against #BMF champ Max Holloway, while Robert Whittaker and Khamzat Chimaev have been rebooked for the co-main event. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to the current UFC 308 lineup, the top-two fights, and where that now leaves #UFC307 — which is slated to take place three weeks earlier. Additionally, topics include Francis Ngannou's MMA return announced vs. Renan Ferreira at PFL's superfight pay-per-view in October with Cris Cyborg and Larissa Pacheco serving as the co-main event, Umar Nurmagomedov defeating Cory Sandhagen in the main event of #UFCAbuDhabi, and where that puts his stock at 135 pounds, and much more. Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and the Co-Main Event Podcast's Ben Fowlkes. Show goes LIVE Thursday at 12:30 p.m. ET / 9:30 a.m. PT.
