The latest episode of BJPENN.COM Radio has arrived, Penn Nation!
Our first guest, coming off a devastating third round finish of Alistair Overeem at UFC 225 that likely cemented him as the rightful No. 1 contender to the heavyweight title, Curtis “Razor” Blaydes. We’ll recap the victory in his hometown of Chicago and discuss the heel-hook attempts by Overeem that injured the knee of Blaydes. What’s next for Curtis? He believes it’s the winner of Daniel Cormier and Stipe Miocic, but he’s also not against taking another fight before reaching the belt.
UFC Light-Heavyweight prospect and Jackson-Wink product Devin Clark joins us to campaign for a fight in Lincoln Nebraska this August against Anthony Smith. The “Brown Bear” has called out Anthony on social media, but has yet to get a response. We’ll discuss the possible matchup, why Devin chose Anthony Smith specifically, who else he has in mind if Smith declines, and more.
