MMA Junkie Radio #3034: Coronavirus and its effect on MMA, Khabib vs. Ferguson

Thursday’s edition of MMA Junkie Radio with hosts “Gorgeous” George and “Goze” is here!

On Episode No. 3,034 of the podcast, the guys admittedly are a little concerned about the global coronavirus pandemic, but they get through the show to look ahead to UFC Brasilia, as well as react to the latest MMA news and notes.

THE RUNDOWN

• What will the coronavirus pandemic’s impact be on upcoming MMA shows, including the highly anticipated UFC 249 card that features Khabib Nurmamgomedov vs. Tony Ferguson on April 18 in New York? The guys ponder all the possibilities.
• UFC on ESPN+ 28 will go on this weekend in Brasilia, Brazil without fans in attendance. Kevin Lee and Charles Oliveira fight in a pivotal lightweight headliner. Demian Mia could break a big UFC record with a win. We look ahead to the event.
• Robert Whittaker vs. Darren Till is set to happen at UFC Dublin this summer. Do we like the matchup?
• Brian Ortega has issued an apology for slapping rapper Jay Park over slapping him at UFC 248 and has received an acceptance from “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung. Did Ortega’s apology feel sincere? We react.
