Bham55$Constructive Criticism-Less dead air and awkward “doo doo doo’s” for the podcast audience -More BTL and Jedd -There’s no point in having 10 different shows if everyone says the same thing (Quality over Quantity) -Mike + Guest(s) is a can’t miss combo The lads do great work, MMA media is young and this is still the highest tier content out there. I’ve been apart of Combat Sports the majority of my life, it’s a bubble that’s hard to stay on the outside of when analyzing. These people do a great job of walking the tight rope without falling too close or too far from the picture as a whole and letting it taint their perspectives like it does to a lot. For example, If you ever find yourself thinking that fighters pay is actually fair as it is now then you have fallen into the bubble. If you think all fighters deserve the same rate of pay, you’ve fallen too far the other way. Use this review as a testimony to the higher ups- invest in better microphones, better cameras, backdrops etc. Water this plant so it keeps growing, it will pay for itself on the back end. My Dad, brother, and I all discovered we listen to this channel and trust me that’s a WIDE NET in terms of audience. And as always- More Parker Porter.

pavvvbbbEndless negativityI am well aware that it isn’t the job of a journalist to promote these cards but the coverage on this podcast network lately honestly makes me less interested in watching the sport. I agree with many of the points being made but the negativity never relents. As a result, I’ve had to start only listening to certain portions of certain shows here when previously I listed to all of it. Mr. Heck has recently been disregarding everything fans have to say on this topic. I’m sure this may fall on deaf ears but I wanted to give it a shot.

Sealants specialistMMA ActivismIf you want political activism mixed in with your MMA coverage this is the show for you! Any opportunity the MMA Mania team can get to ask fighters politically charged questions to illicit their expected response, they’ll then act like a victim and try to cancel said fighter. Personally I think of skilled sports journalists as those who report on the sport without ever exposing their political leanings. The MMA Mania team is the polar opposite of that. Alexander K Lee would be better off reporting on figuring skating vs cage fighting.

matt2377reviewsolid crew; thoughtful coveragefollowing this feed is best way to keep up with UFC (pre-, post-fight and fight week coverage). Couple podcasts per day with breaking news shows etc.

JB JustinSports are supposed to be a fun escapeI used to LOVE all MMA Fightings content, I would listen to multiple shows a week. Over time through, I got tired of the negativity and the politics seeping into the discourse. I don’t listen to Pre-Fight podcasts to be told how terrible the fight card is. I don’t listen to UFC podcasts to be told how evil Dana White is. I don’t listen to podcasts to hear how unacceptable it is that fighter X said X. I want to hear about fights, and be pumped up! Even if it’s a lackluster card. Sports should also be an escape from political narratives. Sometimes things need to be reported on, but most of the time, this is the fight game. We don’t need political posturing or prose in MMA. All that said, they have some great programs and fun ideas. I hope they can get back on track with the singular focus of MMA and promoting Fun!

Ryno144Alexander K LeeYou know how last year (2023) Mike Heck said not every reporter needs to ask questions on media day? Mike didn’t know he was directing that towards his “best friend” for the 297 media day…. Wowwww asking about the trans community before a fight?
-
iturnMMA’s Rush Limbaugh, Jed Meshew, is absolutely the pitsJed Meshew’s “all hot takes all the time” has a diametrically opposite effect in terms of my willingness to engage with this podcast feed. Dude is a massive bummer unilaterally. Being the loudest person in the room doesn’t mean you have anything substantive to say. Jose Youngs rules though.
-
Austin DeschampIt’s decentI was a bigger fan of this show a few years ago. I despise the influencer boxing stuff, they love it, so I don’t listen as much anymore
-
heheheheheuheheueDamon martin is atrocious Ak should go awayDamon's voice is painful to listen to. AK is a pathetically soft excuse for a man.
-
WizardChase402Great showLove the channel ! If AK is to positive then Jedd has to be Mr negativity 😹
-
DolhsfBest All Around MMA PodcastGreat show by a bunch of guys who seem to genuinely like each other. Makes you feel like you’re just talking fights with a couple of buddies, and the weekly format of different shows on different days is something nice to look forward to every day leading up to fight. Keep up the great work, fellas.
-
slim slimingtonNo Bets Barred!My favorite podcast of each fight week. Love the show guys.
-
fire jedFire Jed meshewI could go on a whole rant about his display of hypocrisy and pointless takes on fighters. As a listener I don’t think I have to explain everything. He just another guy trying to fake it until he makes it.
-
SaltywhitesauceAriel ???Your mannerisms are starting to sound familiar… keep on your journey..
-
JohnnyHandsDoes Jed also bet the parlay bets individually?This is an entertaining show to listen to during a fight week, I recommend it. I don’t bet on MMA, but I keep a spreadsheet of Jed’s picks (and winnings) from his Friday-before-the-fight gambling review article (from the website.) So I need to know: based on Jed’s and AK’s parlay conversation in the Jun 15 ’22 podcast, it sounds like, for a parlay, Jed makes both the parlay bet plus individual bets for each leg of the parlay. Is that right?

925FrankieStop cover boxing clownsMma fighting uses be 5 starts then you keep covering clowns one star stop covering boxing clowns and cover real mma athletes

-
Neville_MMAGreatest MMA podcast aroundThis is definitely the greatest MMA podcast channel around everything from the pre show to the post show BTL & On To The Next One I never miss a episode I’m still waiting to be a guest on the show. Keep up the great work guys 5 stars all the way.The ratings show was great this week.
-
wes 44The Airing of GrievancesThis was the single greatest podcast I have ever listened to from MMA Fighting. After over 10 years I have never wrote a review, but after that show you guys get 5 stars. Please do a yearly predictions show for 2022. Who will be champion, who will retire, etc… Thanks guys!
-
Rogue River LokiKeep politics out! Do NOT tell people to get vaccinated!Just listened to the latest episode and after AKA decided it was proper to tell the listeners to get vaccinated I had to shut it off. I will never listen again. You crossed the line with that. I came here for fighting NOT politics!! How you can’t understand that is beyond me but goodbye and I will be telling all my friends to unsubscribe as well
-
Kanakainda360Why is E Casey on hereWhat kind of name is E casey anyway. Dude is a weirdo with a speech impediment and shouldn’t be on the mic. Most annoying voice i’ve ever had to listen to please get him off. He can barely finish sentences and just mumbles nonsense.
-
BrosithSpoilers in episode titles??Had to unsubscribe, sometimes I can’t watch the fights until the next morning and I can’t have spoilers in the titles of the podcasts I listen to. Kinda ruins the fights for me. Nothing wrong with the content itself but seems like a misstep for a podcast that’s for fight fans.
-
cdp007Jed needs a real micCome on already.

Brinkstar53Love itLove the shows BUT, after listening to the new rankings show I was hoping to hear some people that know mma talk about rankings and take them seriously. What it turned out to be was disappointing. The people that took it seriously were great but the individuals that screwed the rankings up by saying Amanda Nunes isn’t ranked #1 in her division that she legitimately (sterling not included) holds the title in or that Ryan Bader is the best P4P fighter in the world is just doing it to be a contrarian and it takes away from the shows potential. The Romero “is the greatest fighter ever”gimmick is funny as long as it doesn’t actually screw with the rankings. UFC rankings are awful and it was great to hear people take the rankings serious but when people are making picks just to be different for entertainment it makes it seem like a joke (like the UFC rankings system) That said I did like the show and I’m looking forward to the next one. Its always great to hear people that love the sport as much as I do share their POVs

Huddyy22.10I feel like a moron for not discovering this soonerFantastic content peeps. The matchmaking show in particular is tremendous
-
DanknuggetZLow energy podcast.Fell asleep halfway thru….
-
RichpurefanNerdsWhat do anyone of you nerds know about fighting you just watch fights and then trash refs the fighters and just for my own reasons what is the records of wins and losses and the guy that dose the Bruce buffer podcast lames
-
povciti fanThe podcast is pretty good overallBut there’s something about the producer that I just literally cannot stand and I just unsubscribed
-
Ddbarnes2Almost perfectThis podcast is great! Mike Heck is great and seems like a cool person. AK brings some great insight, very interactive with fans and listeners. Production value is also great. My only issue is that Jed is absolutely awful. Half the time it seems like he doesn’t even watch the fights he pretends to have an opinion about. Thanks for the great content!
-
xxDarkhorse06xxJust MMA - Zero annoying politicsThese guys/gals deliver the news without ego, argument or negativity (except Alex K Lee... an inside joke of the podcast). Mike Heck is a fantastic host who keeps the ball rolling from topic to topic. The show is even kid friendly (for the most part...I think...I’m pretty sure).
-
molder2233Thought I was going to like this...Mike Heck might have some talent but all thrown away with this joke of a podcast. His “co-hosts” either talk at a million miles an hour in that annoying millennial cadence, or come up with brilliant analysis like “Usman isn’t the greatest WW because he hasn’t defended the title as many times as St. Pierre.” Brilliant insight, huh? 😆 If you want real MMA/UFC talk, find another podcast.

Johne71TrashGarbage

jEffigy33Consistently BadThe hosts only have a cursory knowledge & the guests (lookin' at you awful Drake) are bad. Bad & uninformed.
-
lame show lame dudesOne star for Jose young get rid of himI found I enjoy it when he’s not on go figure
-
Wiener boy88One dude always sounds drunkThat E. Casey Leydon guy is probably the most annoying person in the history of podcasts. His Takes are terrible and can barely finish a sentence sometimes. A lot of stammering and nonsense coming out of that guys mouth. Also very annoying voice. Everyone else is great.
-
Benny2172👍👍👍Mike heck’s the man, great pod
-
Ned in AthensBest in the businessMike, Jose, Casey, Jed, Alex and company are the best in the business. I’ve only been into mma for a year or so and their content is by far the best. Multiple podcasts a week and I never miss one. These guys burn the midnight oil to get out post fight shows and their dedication to their work really shows. Absolute must listen for any mma junkie
-
jenigrl74Mike Heck is doing a great job !I’m convinced “the booth” messes with AK Lee’s audio on purpose lol
-
liammoney3 starsMike heck is so good at his job the rest of the analysts- meh
-
needmoALEXJONESOnce a listenerWas a fan until they started trying to brainwash the listeners w their liberal commercials and started openly hating on Rogan
-
NAWelderToo many spoilersPlease stop sharing the fight results in the podcast show titles. It spoils the fight for those, like me, who may not watch the fight live. Thanks
-
dooty dietyGet rid of KC!I have never complained about a podcast in a review before but KC just gets on my dam nerves. Number one, who wants to listen to a person with an obvious speech impediment? Two, he’s constantly laughing at his own “jokes” that are never funny. Three, he talks over everyone to get in his stupid jokes/comments. Four, he’s clearly not a broadcaster so it brings the show down because everyone else on the show actually can talk clearly and not stutter over every sentence. I’m not saying he needs to be fired but he should be behind the scenes and not on the broadcast.
-
lit gradCasualsThis must be the most uneducated group of MMA analysts in media; all if their opinions sound so unintelligent that one can’t resist to thinking that every one involved in this podcast are completely uneducated in the subject of MMA. Frankly, they all sound like casuals who watch MMA only sparingly.
-
Whiskey BellyFirst and last time listenerOne of these guys is guaranteeing that khabib steamrolls Gaethje. We’re just going to look past Gaethje’s wrestling background and kicking ability? I might listen again to hear him eat crow next week.
