In perhaps the final episode of ’The Ringer MMA Show,’ Petesy Carroll, Chuck Mindenhall, and Troy Farkas give you exactly what you want in a special Sunday UFC Apex reaction edition of the program. Today, the guys begin by discussing Caio Borralho’s gritty win over the stalwart Jared Cannonier and Borralho’s callout of Israel Adesanya. Then, they gush over an exciting co-main event between strawweights Tabatha Ricci and Angela Hill. Plus, reaction to Michael Morales’s win over Neil Magny, and a discussion about the fan base’s waning interest levels in the once-beloved series ’The Ultimate Fighter.’
To close out the show, the guys take some Discord questions about UFC 306 and Dricus du Plessis’s growing legacy. Then, as they reflect on the possible end of the podcast, Petesy, Chuck, and Troy look back, and then look forward.

Last week, Salt Lake City was awarded another fantastic UFC card. And on today’s episode, the trio of Petesy Carroll, Chuck Mindenhall, and Troy Farkas debate whether the UFC 307 main event between Alex Pereira and Khalil Rountree is “terrible” for the sport, as Jamahal Hill thinks it is. They discuss whether Rountree is deserving of the moment, why the UFC refuses to give Magomed Ankalaev a title shot, as well as the rest of the card.
Next, the lads talk about the latest online beef between old foes Ronda Rousey and Cris Cyborg, leading the guys down memory lane. And speaking of beef, the guys then talk about the latest online jabs traded between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall and whether all of this will make an eventual fight between the two heavyweights more or less likely. Then, the guys preview Saturday’s UFC Apex card, which leads Troy to give the guys an extraterrestrial history lesson.
And to close out the show, they answer Discord questions about the biggest “ducks” in UFC history, favorite memories from the podcast, the future of the show without Ariel Helwani, and more.
