Jorge Masvidal’s flying knee seen ‘round the world elevated his stardom to levels that his opponent that night, former UFC welterweight Ben Askren, believes he himself could have risen to had he won. Askren openly discusses his emotions surrounding that night one year ago, Masvidal’s chances against Kamaru Usman, Askren’s own beef with “Marty” and more. Then, Henri Hooft, former coach of Usman and current coach of Gilbert Burns, breaks his silence to talk about Usman’s departure from his gym and what it means for Sanford MMA if Usman and Burns face each other in the future (37:50).   To sign up for Ariel’s LIVE podcast event on Friday at 8 p.m. ET, click here.
