Paul Felder and Michael Chiesa are back at it again on this episode of UFC Round-Up during UFC 296 fight week!

To start off the show, the guys discuss this past Saturday’s UFC Fight Night main event, as bantamweight Song Yadong defeated Chris Gutierrez by unanimous decision. The pair also touch on the light heavyweight co-main event, as Khalil Rountree Jr. defeated Anthony Smith by TKO.

After that, the duo answer 5 rounds of fan questions. 

1.      Do you think that Colby Covington is being underestimated going into this fight?

2.      Do you think Ian Machado Garry is distracted heading into the fight with Vicente Luque?

3.      Is there anyone at welterweight that you would pick straight up to win against Shavkat Rakhmonov right now?

4.      It would be nice to know honest opinions on the Paddy Pimblett vs. Tony Ferguson fight and reasons why it could go either way? 

5.      Alexandre Pantoja’s fight with Brandon Moreno is one of the wildest battles I’ve ever seen. Given the fact that at one point he was an Uber driver and a man smoked in his car. I must ask what is the side job that you (Michael Chiesa) or Paul Felder had where a rude customer deserved a knee?

Paul Felder and Michael Chiesa are back at it again on this episode of UFC Round-Up after one of the most exciting cards of the year in UFC 295!

To start off the show, the guys give their thoughts and takeaways from this past weekend’s UFC 295 co-main event, as Tom Aspinall defeated Sergei Pavlovich by first-round TKO for the interim heavyweight belt. The guys also discuss the main event, as Alex Pereira beat Jiří Procházka by second-round KO for the light heavyweight belt. Plus, the guys give shoutouts to a few other winners from the card, including Jared Gordon, Benoît Saint Denis and Jéssica Andrade.

Then, the duo answer 5 rounds of fan questions. 

1.      The most intense staredown in the history of the UFC followed by an amazing display of skill in the main event. What do you think about the stoppage, what’s next for Jiří, is it possible for him to get to a title rematch?

2.      Do you think Aspinall beats the Jon Jones we’ve seen in his last 3 fights?

3.      In your opinion how high is the ceiling for Diego Lopes?

4.      Jared Gordon followed up an incredible KO with an even more inspirational, heartfelt, and personal speech. How hard is it to be that articulate in moments of extreme adrenaline? Have either of you planned a speech but forgot it and just “yeah buddy” or something? 

5.      Who would win in a staring contest between Alex Pereira and the booger eating kid from across the street that was always in your business?
