Check out this week’s “Spinning Back Clique,” MMA Junkie’s weekly live show that takes a spin through the biggest topics in mixed martial arts.

This week’s panel of Brian “Goze” Garcia, Nolan King and Danny Segura will join host “Gorgeous” George Garcia live at noon ET (9 a.m. PT) to discuss and debate the following topics:

  • Brandon Moreno finally has a UFC win on home soil. After going 0-2-1 fighting in Mexico under the UFC banner, Moreno defeated Steve Erceg this past Saturday in the main event of UFC on ESPN 64. Should Moreno get the next crack at champion Alexandre Pantoja? We discuss Moreno’s big win, plus other key results from UFC Mexico.
  • Cain Velasquez received a five-year sentence in prison for a 2022 shooting. This put an end to a heartbreaking case that troubled the MMA community for a while. Velasquez shot a vehicle that had a man who allegedly molested Velasquez’s 4-year-old son at a daycare. Velasquez was credited with 1,283 days of previously time served, meaning he’ll have to serve 542 days behind bars. We react to the verdict of the case and the MMA community’s response.
  • Is Conor McGregor done fighting? Well, the UFC superstar made some recent comments that signaled, to many, McGregor’s true intentions on a potential return to the cage. Will we ever see the Irishman set foot in the octagon again? We discuss.
  • New signings, new bookings, and matchups falling through. The often repeating headlines seen week to week in the sport. We discuss Kyoji Horiguchi’s return to the UFC, the announcement of the inaugural GFL cards, Geoff Neal’s withdrawal from his Carlos Prates fight, and more.
  • Lastly, we end the show with a look ahead at the two major events going down this weekend: PFL 1, 2025 and UFC on ESPN 65. We preview Josh Emmett vs. Lerone Murphy, and the welterweight and featherweight tournaments kicking off at Thursday’s PFL event.
