Christian Rodriguez, Levan Chokheli, and UFC Azerbaijan
About this episode
Jim and Matt interview UFC fighters Christian Rodriguez and Levan Chokheli following their recent victories.
Coming off an electric Fight Night in Vegas, Jim & Matt are joined by a pair of Saturday night’s winners: Christian Rodriguez and Levan Chokheli. First in the hot seat, Christian Rodriguez hops on to discuss his round one guillotine finish over Hyder Amil. Coming into Saturday’s fight, the featherweight felt the need to win after coming off two straight losses. Christian credits some major changes in his life like moving to Vegas and a focus on mental health. With this new direction, he feels he’s on the right path to reaching the top. Then, for the first time, Levan Chokheli hops on still radiating excitement from his 23-second KO over Leon Shahbazyan (in his UFC debut no less). The Georgian delves into his origins, hobbies, and living in Vegas compared to Georgia.
