Join us immediately after UFC Vegas 71: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes wraps up…
for our 6th Round Post-Fight Show, hosted by resident Bloody Elbow Fight Analysts, Zane Simon and his co-hort, Eddie Mercado. Here, the guys will recap all the action that just went down between No. 3 ranked Heavyweight contender, Sergei Pavlovich and No. 4 ranked former NJCAA wrestler, Curtis Blaydes, complete with hot takes, possible next fights and reactions to the overall event.
NOW ON VIDEO
We brought the show back to LIVE VIDEO recently — and have a plan on how to keep the train rolling forward. For every Fight Night event the show will air live on our Bloody Elbow Podcast YouTube Channel (formerly known as: Bloody Elbow Presents Channel). For every PPV event the show will air live on our Bloody Elbow YouTube Channel (“The Big One”) directly after our all new free LIVE stream PPV Watch Parties! Which will debut for UFC 288: Sterling vs Cejudo, Live From The Prudential Center In Newark, New Jersey, on May 6, 2023.
BONUSES
Can’t catch the live events? We’ve got you covered, on Sundays (starting with UFC 288), we will be publishing enhanced video packages of the shows, with added on bonus segments the guys will be recording after the shows usually wrap up. Zane and Eddie have implemented a new ‘numerical star rating system’ for reviewing the bouts on the card during these segments, which is highly entertaining. All you need to do is join us at BloodyElbowPodcast.Substack.com, share your email with us so we can notify you when new shows drop, and pledge your support to our podcast team — so we can keep bringing the shows to you, especially in video.
Note from the producer: “Due to a technical hiccup, about 12 minutes of the bonus portion of the episode is noticeably different from the free portion. It was rectified at that point and the disrupted audio was corrected as much as possible, but there is still quite a difference. I offer sincere apologies for the error. Thank you again for listening.”
