Conor McGregor UFC 329 Physique! 💪 + Poirier Arrest Video

Host Tom Albano is LIVE for another packed episode of Fight IQ, breaking down a wild, headline-heavy weekend in the MMA world! On this episode, we react to the massive online buzz surrounding Conor McGregor’s return. "The Notorious" took to Instagram to show off his absolute peak fight shape and a brand-new pair of custom "Money" shorts as he gears up for his highly anticipated return at UFC 329. Is this the best shape we've ever seen Conor in, or is it just pre-fight hype? We also dive into his recent comments admitting he got a bit "lost in it" after achieving legendary champ-champ status. Then, we have to talk about the troubling news surrounding Dustin Poirier. Shocking bodycam footage was released from his recent arrest for public intoxication at the Atlanta airport, showing an incredibly chaotic scene where the lightweight icon confronted airport staff and police. We look into the footage, his subsequent statement on social media about his struggles with retirement, and what this means for his legacy. Plus, we recap an unforgettable weekend at UFC Baku! While the card was plagued by frustrating officiating controversies, Asu Almabayev stole the show by locking in a spectacular Suloev stretch submission—making it only the fourth time in UFC history that rare finish has ever been pulled off inside the Octagon. We also break down Rafael Fiziev's electric return KO of Manuel Torres, Abdul Rakhman Yakhyaev's lightning-fast 8-second knockout, and A.J. McKee running through the competition at PFL San Diego. In the rest of a massive news week, we discuss Dricus Du Plessis vs. Kamaru Usman being booked for UFC Oklahoma City, Ian Machado Garry signing with Eddie Hearn, Ketlen Vieira vs. Cris Cyborg in PFL, and ESPN unifying its major fighter awards.
