I'm Making A Lot Of New Friends At UFC International Fight Week

I've been having a blast at UFC's International Fight Week this year. From the pressers, to the weigh ins, to the UFC fan convention, to even the Power Slap event last night - the energy has just been incredible in Vegas and all of the fight fans here are more than ready to witness some carnage tonight. I've been making a ton of new friends, as well! 

As you can see above, Joanna Jedrzejczyk took me for a ride and almost put me through a table when asked how many of me it'd take to beat her in a fight; and she wasn't the only fighter to pick me up this weekend!

Stipe friggin ragdolled me! My ribs are still sore! 

Fighters just see me and they go, "I wanna pick that guy up." for some reason. I'm basically their Baby Yoda.

I also met a couple fans of Dave and Miss Peaches in Mark Coleman and Charlie Campbell….

I got to talk Jersey with Frankie Edgar….

I (very awkwardly) informed Beneil Dariush that Conor McGregor was talking shit about him on Twitter….

….and I even became pals with Jan Blachowicz, who basically agreed that he could probably kill me with one good punch.

It's been a little tough to get all of our content out in real time as we're shooting it - but I've got plenty more evergreen stuff in the can with all of these fighters (and plenty more) that will be releasing throughout the week. Now it's time for UFC 303, though….

Here's the Spinnin Backfist parlay for tonight on DraftKings….

….and if you didn't see it already, here's my latest interview with Dana White….
