MMA Junkie Q&A replay: Astros star Carlos Correa on picking Justin Gaethje at UFC 249, more

The latest MMA Junkie Q&A featured a special guest in the form of MLB World Series champion, Rookie of the Year and former No. 1 overall pick Carlos Correa.

Correa, who plays for the Houston Astros, is an avid MMA follower. He even has his own podcast on the sport called “The Walkout,” and it was there he made a prediction for Justin Gaethje to snap Tony Ferguson’s winning streak to claim interim lightweight gold at UFC 249. That, of course, came to fruition.

Why did Correa feel so confident the fight would that way? That was one of the many questions he answered related to recent headlines on the latest MMA Junkie Q&A with senior reporter Mike Bohn.

In addition, Correa provided an update on the potential resumption of professional baseball during the coronavirus pandemic, and said the UFC’s ability to put on events provided hope.

Watch the replay of the MMA Junkie Q&A with Correa above.
