    ESPN is censoring The Helwani Show

    Noticed this week (haven't listened in a bit) that ESPN is now editing out any swearing from the show. It's 2018 and athletes who fight in a cage for a living can't say the word shit on a show that's only available online. Fuck them. Evolve or die.

    Ourand/SBJ: Predicts Brock/DC will be on ESPN (not PPV)

    John Ourand who breaks a lot of UFC financial news for SBJ was on Richard Dietsch podcast & said he expects Brock/DC to be on ESPN. I'd be shocked to see that happening. He is a great source, but they would lose tens of millions (unless ESPN forks up extra money)
