HOAM | What UFC 'Superfight' Could Dana White Be Teasing?

HOAM | What UFC 'Superfight' Could Dana White Be Teasing?

explicit

In a recent interview, UFC CEO Dana White teased that he is working on a "superfight" for 2024, which has sparked some conversation. What could that fight be that White says he's trying to put together, and what actually constitutes a superfight in today's modern age of mixed martial arts? On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck gives his thoughts on potential options for what could get matched up for 2024, his definition of what a superfight is these days, and what the reaction could be if it involves Ronda Rousey or Georges St-Pierre. Additionally, listener topics include the importance of Beneil Dariush's main event bout with Arman Tsarukyan at UFC Austin and why saying that he gains nothing from the bout is absolutely incorrect, what could be in store for the PFL in 2024 and their vision for Bellator, who Alex Pereira could fight next after capturing the UFC light heavyweight title, and more. You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.

In 2019, Jorge Masvidal went from respected, gritty veteran, to megastar and world title contender, seemingly out of nowhere.

Additionally, listener topics include the Beneil Dariush vs. Arman Tsarukyan main event, the UFC Austin card as a whole, PFL renewing with ESPN, Leon Edwards vs. Colby Covington at UFC 296, Tony Ferguson's chances against Paddy Pimblett in their upcoming bout, and more.
