Sean and Oktagon MMA play-by-play announcer Bryan Lacey preview Oktagon 72, which takes place Saturday in Prague. Before breaking down the card, which is topped by a trilogy match between European pioneers, Sean asks the question: How does a regional promotion excel in the 2020s?

Keith and Ben preview UFC Atlanta with detailed predictions and picks for all 13 fights. Watch out for a couple of consensus upset picks and brace yourselves for the widest betting line you'll see in the Octagon all year! There is some of the usual side chatter, including fond reminiscences of Anderson Silva's rise to UFC greatness.

Still, it is worth noting what was not mentioned during the entire preview of UFC on ESPN 69. That's right: Like a certain bantamweight title challenger, Shillan and Duffy might be growing up before your very eyes...
