UFC 304 has been described multiple times by multiple sources as “not exactly a barn burner…” but there is plenty to talk about over here in the P4P studio. First, who better to give us an analysis of Belal Muhammad’s fight plan and execution against Leon Edwards thank the Nigerian Nightmare. Three matchups later and Kamaru Usman knows all there is to know about Leon’s battle plan and takedown defense, two things that Belal walked through without any issue. Head drop takedowns, level changes that led to back control, and more significant strikes landed with more than double thrown… Belal got it down in almost every way. So what next? Well, Henry knows who he needs to ask and wastes no time. Kamaru gives us two answers for what he thinks about an Usman vs Muhammad matchup, one from the fighter and another from the realist. Then the guys map out a few welterweight scenarios for a division that Belal just blew wide open. Tom Aspinall is making the case that he’s the best active heavyweight in the world; Kamaru certainly thinks so. Just 3 minutes and 37 seconds: Aspinall’s total fight time across his last 4 UFC fights. Is defending an Interim Belt getting to the point where it feels a little ridiculous? What should be the next Heavyweight title matchup, and where exactly does Jones fit into all this? Paddy surprises the guys with a dominant win over King Green. Bobby let Paddy ease into the fight instead of putting it on him, and Paddy made the King pay with a quick and dominant second round. One thing is certain, Paddy Pimblett is unapologetically himself and that in itself commands respect. Gregory Rodrigues vs Christian Leroy Duncan and Arnold Allen vs Giga Chikadze round out the main card. Quick analyses before we stop over at the Muhammad Mokaev and Manel Kape narrative, which culminated in an anticlimactic unanimous decision on the undercard. Kamaru speaks on the consequences that come along with fights that don’t deliver. 00:00 - Intro 02:30 - Belal vs Leon Breakdown 18:20 - Belal: Next Opponent 21:00 - Kamaru’s Next Fight Prediction 24:45 - Welterweight Scenarios 28:50 - Tom Aspinall, Best Active Heavyweight 35:50 - Paddy vs King 38:00 - What’s Next for Paddy 41:41 - Kape vs Mokaev Falls Flat The Official Pound 4 Pound Newsletter is HERE.
