The Odds Keep Telling The Story Here: UFC Vegas 114 Preview | Ep. 397

About this episode

Stephie Haynes discusses the challenges and hopes for MMA in 2026 in a solo episode previewing UFC Vegas 114.

Well, it's all starting. Major MMA in 2026 has officially begun and it's looking rocky. But we're not giving up on hope. We've got a lot to be concerned about, but we've got some great stuff to look forward to. This is a solo ep this week, kids. Stephie's unavailable but we'll be trudging through the forest with a machete to try to make some sense of this mess. And maybe, just maybe, you'll have a little more hope in your hearts with this weird-ass sport. Please consider becoming a paid member for bonus content and other fun perks.
