  • Chris Gutierrez, Malcolm Wellmaker, UFC Kansas City recap
    Apr 29 2025

    On today’s episode of UFC Unfilfered, Jim and Matt are joined by two victorious bantamweights with very different but equally compelling stories.

    When Gutierrez hops on, Matt heaps praise on the veteran’s poised jiu-jitsu in in this past Saturday’s split decision win over John Castaneda in Kansas City. Having fought through a broken hand, Chris outlines a timetable for his subsequent return after banking two straight wins.

    In between interviews, Jim and Matt debate whether a victory over Carlos Prates puts Ian Machado Garry in prime position for a No. 1 contender fight against Sean Brady.

    Finally, undefeated Malcolm Wellmaker makes his first-ever appearance on the show fresh off a viral one-punch KO in his UFC debut. Malcolm reflects on the moment he earned a $50k bonus and what it would mean for the Augusta, Georgia native to fight on this June’s upcoming Atlanta card headlined by Kamaru Usman vs. Joaquin Buckley.

    Jim and Matt are back with a stacked midweek episode featuring two UFC vets and one of Hollywood’s finest behind the camera.


    First up, Danish welterweight Nicolas Dalby makes his UFC Unfiltered debut to reflect on his razor-thin split decision loss, the secret to staying fight-ready at 40, and his thoughts heading into a striker’s showdown with Randy Brown.

    Next, Gavin O’Connor — the acclaimed director behind The Accountant and Warrior — joins in a pre-recorded chat ahead of this Friday’s theatrical release of The Accountant 2. Gavin and Matt swap Long Island stories before diving into how he fell in love with MMA and what makes fight storytelling so cinematic.

    Wrapping things up is Matt Schnell, back from a brief retirement and ready to go this Saturday. Schnell revisits his legendary comeback win over Sumudaerji and explains his motivation to return to the Octagon after previously laying down his gloves in his most recent loss to Cody Durden. With matchmaking on his post-career radar, Schnell also shares his take on the perfect sendoff for fellow Louisianan Dustin Poirier.

    Apr 22 2025

    On today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim and Matt are joined by two fighters representing different eras of Brazilian greatness.

Nearly two years removed from retiring on top with a win over Irene Aldana, the soon-to-be UFC Hall of Famer opens up about life outside the Octagon, balancing family and fitness, and what it would mean to dust off her gloves for a title shot against the winner of UFC 316’s co-main event between Julianna Peña and Kayla Harrison.
