Thomas and Campbell don’t just cover the UFC, there’s weekly boxing talk as well. Additionally, you don’t want to miss their regular segment called 'Have you seen this Sh*t’ where they showcase ridiculous fight footage on social media.

You can find Morning Kombat here.

#4 Believe you me with Michael Bisping

Former UFC middleweight champion Michael ‘The Count’ Bisping and New York stand-up comedian Luis Gomez take a light-hearted view on MMA news. Bisping was famous for his trash-talking before his fights, and he hasn’t slowed down in retirement.

The duo also talk to some of the biggest stars in the sport while Bisping shares hilarious stories from his UFC career.
