With UFC Oklahoma City just days away, Jim Norton and Matt Serra preview Saturday’s card and lock in their picks before catching up with two fighters competing at the event.

First, former middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis joins ahead of his main event clash with Kamaru Usman. Du Plessis discusses his first fight since losing the title to Khamzat Chimaev, what makes Usman dangerous, and why a statement win should put him right back in the thick of the middleweight title picture against Sean Strickland — a champion he has already beaten twice.

Then, Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani stops by ahead of his welterweight prelim matchup with Seokhyeon Ko. Looking to continue his upward trajectory after a successful UFC debut against Phil Rowe, the Hermosa Beach native reflects on how life has changed since moving to Las Vegas — from sharing an apartment with teammates to living in a house — all while explaining how teaching jiu-jitsu classes at 10 years old helped shape the student-of-the-game mentality he now brings to “The Q” fight team.

Jim Norton and Matt Serra kick off today’s episode by beginning to unpack a UFC 329 card defined by stoppages, comebacks and unexpected turns before welcoming the first of two winners riding the high of first-round knockouts.

Fresh off his win over former bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt, Adrian Yañez joins the show to reflect, Yañez talks about the Cody matchup he long envisioned, the calming influence of coach Sayif Saud, and what kind of opponent he hopes to draw next.

Then, Jim and Matt continue their UFC 329 recap before another winner joins the show in King Green. Coming off a dramatic last-second finish of Terrance McKinney, Green delivers a fiery, smoke-filled interview about surviving early danger, extending his winning streak to four, squashing things with McKinney after the fight, and why a potential Los Angeles showdown with Dan Hooker has his attention.

Finally, the guys put a bow on UFC 329 with their remaining thoughts on the biggest results from Saturday’s action.

Finally, friend of the show Cory Sandhagen returns to break down the stakes of his bantamweight rematch with Mario Bautista more than seven years after submitting him in Bautista’s short-notice UFC debut. “The Sandman” assesses his place in the bantamweight division, reflects on the lessons he has learned from setbacks inside the Octagon, and discusses his entrepreneurial new chapter as the co-owner of a brand-new gym alongside his wrestling coach.
