In this episode, host Roberto Diaz and his co-host Joe Soto take a closer look at the path of redemption. For the UFC 240 card, the main and co-main events are both headlined by fighters that are coming off big losses. Max will be defending his title after losing to Dustin Poirier, and Cyborg will attempt to win again after a devastating loss to Amanda Nunes. The significance of these losses, what they mean, how they affect the fighters will be discussed. Also, losing by mistakes and losing to better fighters will be explored, as well as how mistakes happen, split-second mistakes, how soon they’re recognized, and if they should be corrected. UFC 240 takes place on Saturday July 27, 2019. This even will be held in Edmonton, Canada.
