Chin Check - 357 (UFC 331 NE Preview)

People, Saturday night, the UFC is going to Los Angeles, baby, California. It's getting a 'Numbered Event', and this is a doozy. The Crypto.com Arena, will host the rematch, 'Van (c) vs Pantoja 2'. Now, this has been crazyily anticipated, former champion, 'The Cannibal', Pantoja, is trying to get back what he sees as his. BUT, the current Champ, 'The Fearless', Van ain't looking to hand anything over, not even an inch!

That's not even it though, the rest of the card is stacked with GREAT match-ups!!! The 'Co-main' serves as a Lightweight title eliminator, and we have Arman Tsarukyan challenging Maurício Ruffy. Tsarukyan hasn't fought MMA since 22nd November 2025 and Ruffy is coming off his HUGE 'Freedom 250' KO at the 'White House'! There's also the sophomore effort from Gable Steveson, who goes against Sean Sharaf. Will Steveson be able to build upon his explosive start or can Sharaf produce a seismic shift in reality! Jobs could be on the line too, can Giga Chikadze, Michael Aswell Jr, Tai Tuivasa and Marlon Vera get back in the green tick column!?!

We're never short of talking points, and this card has delivered a ton! So, jump on @ChinCheckPod (ep 357) as we get into every corner of this fantastic card 'UFC 331: Van vs Pantoja 2', as well as recap all the action from 'Week 6' of 'Dana White's Contender Series'!!!!

Chin Check - 350 (UFC Sacramento Recap)

It might have been a minute since the last trip (July 2019) to Sacramento, but Saturday night saw the Golden 1 Center ready to explode with anticipation & excitement! And the UFC definitely did not disappoint!

As expected, Shanelle Dyer got things popping off with a BANG, and Jackson McVey continued with the energy! Stanley Dorsainvil got that positivity ball rolling for the debuting fighters, BUT Anthony Wint blew the roof off! Carli Judice and MarQuel Mederos put on great shows and furthered their ascension to some big showcases, while Reinier de Ridder not only had a successful Light Heavyweight debut, but also let everyone know he is far from done!

In the 'Headline' fight, things didn't fall the way the home crowd necessarily wanted, but Gregory Rodrigues was definitely all about "Thank you for your cooperation. Good night." There was a lot to look back on for @ChinCheckPod (ep 350)! So let's sit back and relive all the action from 'UFC Fight Night: Hernandez vs Rodrigues'!?!
