After nearly a month-long hiatus, Two Guys and a Fight (TGAAF) have finally returned for Episode 33 to give you our UFC 230 Recap Show. This episode will cover what took place on the main card at UFC 230 (which featured the UFC Heavyweight Championship bout between Daniel Cormier vs. Derrick Lewis), we'll discuss the UFC 232 Press Conference that took place featuring Jon Jones vs. Alexander Gustafsson, and we'll finish off by covering trending news topics in MMA, including Ben Askren being traded to the UFC. UFC 230: Cormier vs. Lewis took place this past Saturday, November 3rd, 2018, from the Madison Square Garden (MSG) Arena in New York, New York, with the main card airing on pay-per-view (PPV). We covered the following results from the main card: - Daniel Cormier defeats Derrick Lewis via 2nd Round Submission (Rear-Naked Choke) - Jacare Souza defeats Chris Weidman via 3rd Round TKO (Punches) - Jared Cannonier defeats David Branch via 2nd Round TKO (Punches) - Karl Roberson defeats Jack Marshman via Unanimous Decision - Israel Adesanya defeats Derek Brunson via 1st Round TKO (Knee and Punches) We talk about the making of this card and how the hype for the yearly MSG card sort of died down as the card fell apart. The fights that were actually supposed to go down, included: - Nate Diaz vs. Dustin Poirier - Luke Rockhold vs. Chris Weidman - Yoel Romero vs. Paulo Costa - Jacare Souza vs. David Branch We'll also discuss the results and give our opinions on what transpired inside The Garden last night. We'll also give our takes on what we believe should happen next in the aftermath of UFC 230; including a potential Brock Lesnar fight happening next for Daniel Cormier, and how the UFC's Middleweight Division will play out after Jacare Souza, Jared Cannonier, and Israel Adesanya all scored impressive victories. Finally, we recap the most essential and important MMA news stories that materialized during our absence. including the UFC 232 Press Conference featuring Jon Jones vs. Alexander Gustafsson and Cris Cyborg vs. Amanda Nunes. We'll also talk about the first ever trade in MMA History, which involved the former UFC Flyweight Champion, Demetrious Johnson being traded for ONE Championship's Welterweight Champion, Ben Askren.
