On this week’s episode of What the Heck, UFC flyweight Brandon Royval (7:18) discusses his big win over Tim Elliott this past Saturday at UFC on ESPN 9, explains the origin of his “Raw Dawg” nickname, what comes next with his day job, and what’s in store for his fight career.
UFC bantamweight Brian Kelleher (32:00) talks about his upcoming fight against Cody Stamann at UFC 250, his busy schedule this year, and how a long-coveted matchup against star Sean O’Malley might not be out of the question if they both win their next fights.
UFC bantamweight O’Malley (52:45) also appears on the show and addresses the possibility of a fight with Kelleher, how he felt returning to the promotion at UFC 248 after a two-year layoff, his next bout against Eddie Wineland at UFC 250, and how he feels about his title prospects.
Finally, UFC lightweight Roosevelt Roberts (1:06:10) returned to the show as promised to discuss his plans after submitting Brok Weaver this past Saturday in a grudge match at UFC on ESPN 9, what happened in the backstage area once his opponent missed weight, why he didn’t call out the fighter he wanted to, and his thoughts on what is going on in the U.S. in the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer.
