UFC 315 main event stakes, Jose Aldo misses weight, more

The Craic with Petesy Carroll

Petesy Carroll is joined by familiar faces Chuck Mindenhall and Ben Fowlkes to talk all things UFC 315.

The lads kick off the show by breaking down the fallout from Jose Aldo’s weight struggles, including how it could impact his chances against Aiemann Zahabi (3:02).

After debating whether the tail end of Aldo’s career is being mishandled, Petesy shifts the focus to this weekend’s main event. The trio discuss Belal Muhammad finally earning the respect of the oddsmakers, and whether Jack Della Maddalena is being overlooked as the challenger (20:01).

The result of the UFC 315 main event will also determine Islam Makhachev’s next move, so the chaps unpack just how much intrigue his subplot adds to the card (22:55).

There’s also plenty of attention on the co-main event. Chuck recaps his conversation with title challenger Manon Fiorot, offering fresh insight into how she sees her clash with Valentina Shevchenko playing out (38:38).

Despite the strong matchups, UFC 315 might struggle to fill the arena. The lads weigh in on lackluster ticket sales and whether the UFC is pricing out local fans with steep prices (48:48).

To close the show, Petesy touches on Paul Hughes’s homecoming fight against Bruno Miranda, as well as some unfortunate headlines surrounding the PFL (1:01:05).
