UFC 145 is this weekend and it features one of the best built-up main events in a long time. Jon Jones and Rashad Evans have gone back and forth with each other and it’s almost fight time.
Joining me on the show is Jason Hagholm, aka @dadrrtywhyteboi.
Jason and I preview the main card, which if it works out for the UFC, can be a showcase for younger fighters like Michael McDonald and Rory MacDonald.
We also talk about Brock Lesnar’s WWE comeback thus far, the UFC on Fuel show from last weekend and the early build for Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto.

(Our podcast crashed at the end, but luckily it was right after we were done. I just wasn’t able to give it the proper outro.)

WrestleMania 28 has come and gone. It featured one fantastic match, two pretty darn good matches, and a mind-boggling squash match. Overall, it may not have been the best WrestleMania ever, it had its moments.
Joining me on the show is Jason Hagholm, aka @dadrrtywhyteboi, who has his own thoughts about the show.
We discuss the show in its entirety including which matches were good, which were bad, who was terrible on the show, who gassed out, and why the finish in the main event was the right one. We also guess what may happen on Raw if Brock Lesnar is in attendance.

Rather than write another 800 words on the Road To WrestleMania 28, I decided to get Big D on a podcast so we could discuss not only Raw from last night, but also to preview the entire WrestleMania 28 card.
You can find Big D on Twitter @EmperorBigD, on Facebook, and at his website, Superfriends Universe.
We first talked about the build for The Rock vs. John Cena and what we liked and didn’t like and also what we thought they could’ve done instead. We discussed the finish of the match, who we both thinks has to win, and how they could make sure that John Cena is a better character after the match.
We go through all of the matches and the build for each match. We talk about who we think should win each match, but also who we think will win each match.
We also discuss our Greatest Wrestlers Of The WrestleMania Era list that is currently ongoing on the website now.

Jason aka @dadrrtywhyteboi and I are back to go over WWE’s Elimination Chamber PPV and preview UFC 144.
Elimination Chamber was definitely better than the Royal Rumble and set more seeds for WrestleMania 28, but it wasn’t a blow away PPV by any means. CM Punk, nor John Cena, nor Chris Jericho was the star of the show. The star of the show was Santino Marella who got the biggest pop of the night and played that underdog character perfectly yet again.
UFC 144 is a four-hour extravaganza! Okay, this isn’t WrestleMania IV, both literally and figuratively. This show should be damn great. Jason and I preview all of the main card matches.

Jason aka @dadrrtywhyteboi and I are back to talk about two big shows from this weekend, and to preview UFC 143.
The Royal Rumble was not a good show and we’ll talk about why. We discuss all the matches and go through the entire Royal Rumble, all the way down the the head-scratching conclusion.
Then, we discuss the second UFC On Fox show, which was also not as good as we’d hoped from an entertainment perspective, but seems to have done its job from a ratings perspective. We’ll go over all three fights and discuss where those fights should lead to.
We then talk about the build up to Nick Diaz and Carlos Condit, and preview the rest of UFC 143, which is this weekend. Lastly, I give a 30 second review of Gina Carano’s Haywire.

Jason aka @dadrrtywhyteboi and I are back to talk about many things on the latest edition of FGB Radio.
We recorded the show very soon after my beloved San Francisco 49ers lost in the NFC Championship Game to the New York Giants so we talk about football for the first few minutes, but quickly thereafter, we segue into talking about the top three fights on the 2nd UFC on Fox show, which is this weekend. We talk about Sonnen vs. Bisping being a true number one contender’s fight, Weidman being thrusted into the spotlight, and the funny circumstances between Rashad Evans and Jon Jones.
We then discuss the 2012 edition of the Royal Rumble which is also this weekend. We talk about the few guys who actually have a chance to win the Rumble and wonder if there’s a secret guy out there who we’re missing. We talk Punk/Johnny Ace and how Dolph Ziggler is kind of just a third wheel in the angle as well as Daniel Bryan and how he’s doing as champion.
Lastly, we talk about the heavily rumored rematch between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto, going through most of the possible guys who Pacquiao could even fight.
Check it out and let us know what you think.
