With Matt Serra off for the day, Jim Norton welcomes guest co-host Michael Chiesa to help preview Saturday’s UFC 331 card in Los Angeles.First, fan-favorite heavyweight Tai Tuivasa joins the show ahead of his prelim matchup against Robelis Despaigne. Tuivasa talks about preparing for a 6-foot-7 striker with massive reach, how he handles long travel and time-zone changes as an Australian fighter, and what it will take to snap his skid and regain momentum on Saturday.Then, Olympic gold medalist Gable Steveson makes his UFC Unfiltered debut ahead of his main-card fight against Sean Sharaf. Chiesa’s wrestling background comes in handy as he and Jim dive into Steveson’s transition from elite wrestling to MMA, his 4-0 start with four first-round finishes, and what he learned from his first walk to the Octagon.Throughout the episode, Chiesa brings the same fighter-analyst perspective he now provides on UFC broadcasts, breaking down some of UFC 331’s key stylistic matchups and storylines by ahead of fight night on Saturday.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
