Henry Cejudo and Kamaru Usman sit down to talk the latest news in combat sports. The guys start off with a quick recap of their weekends... Henry was able to reconnect with his first-ever boxing coach José Benavidez, father of two-time WBC super middleweight champion David Benavidez, and Kamaru spent some time at his side gig out in LA.

Recent hot topics up for discussion include the announcement of a trilogy fight between Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen, who will face off in a five round boxing match on June 15 in Brazil. Also on the docket is Khalil Rountree's failed drug test and subsequent removal from UFC 303, and Colby Covington's callout to Charles Oliveira. Also in headlines, our very own Triple C calls out Rob Ford and the guys take a deep dive into the potential matchup.

After a half hour of reactions to recent news it's time to jump into UFC 302 matchups as Kamaru and Henry make their picks and weigh out each fight across Early Prelims, Prelims and the Main Card. Standouts include a walk down history lane that reminds the world Cesar Almeida's kickboxing is the real deal (just ask Alex Pereira), a debate on Sean Strickland vs. Paulo Costa, and the growing anticipation around Islam Makhachev and Dustin Poirier.

Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo jump into the studio to talk to Islam Makhachev weeks before his upcoming Lightweight Title Fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 302.

Before Islam, Kamaru and Henry react to Derrick Lewis’ cup launch and the growing relationship between the UFC and WWE.

And BIG NEWS… Underdog Fantasy Sports is an official partner of the Pound 4 Pound show with Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo! The guys have fun exploring the app and making their own picks for Saturday’s UFC Fight Night with Lerone Murphy and Edson Barboza.

The guys ask Islam about his relationship with Khabib Nurmagomedov, growing up in Dagestan with the top fighters in the world, his strategy against Dustin Poirier, how he feels about a fantasy fight against Conor McGregor, and his thoughts on the 155 landscape as a whole.

After a debrief on the Islam conversation, Kamaru and Henry react to ESPN’s rankings of the top 15 undefeated MMA fighters. Is Ilia Topuria’s #1 slot too high, is Bo Nickal worthy of the list at just 6-0? Who gets the edge… Usman Nurmagomedov or Islam Makhachev?
