    WHAT IS UP, fight fans?! Welcome back to another LIVE edition of The Anik & Florian Podcast, the only place you get unfiltered access to the voice and insight of the UFC straight from the source. We are rolling just 48 hours removed from one of the most chaotic and controversial weekends in recent memory. UFC 326 is in the books, and we have a NEW BMF champion, but the fallout? WILD. Conor McGregor took to social media to absolutely BLAST Charles Oliveira’s performance and took some serious shots at the commentary booth—specifically calling out DC. Jon Anik was live at the desk when it happened, and he’s here to set the record straight on what went down. It’s the inside baseball you can’t get anywhere else, powered by our partners at @allthesmoke and @atsfight.

    And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The UFC dropped the STACKED "Freedom 250" White House card announcement, and we’ve got First Round Management CEO Malki Kawa (@malkikawa) joining us LIVE to reveal the INSANE story behind the overnight negotiations that saved the main event. We’re talking Ilia Topuria vs. Justin Gaethje, how it all came together at 3 AM, and his unfiltered take on the state of the UFC in 2026. Then, legendary coach Ray Longo (@raylongomma) is here for the Ray Longo Minute to break down the technical genius—or lack thereof—from UFC 326. Plus, UFC veteran and sharp mind Din Thomas (@dinthomas) stops by to talk Amanda Nunes’ return and what the BMF title really means. We’re also looking ahead with our UFC Fight Night: Emmett vs. Vallejos Picks & Preview, featuring a deep dive on the massive featherweight tilt between Josh Emmett and the surging Kevin Vallejos.
