In this special unscheduled episode Jamie Clubb looks at the fallout of UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor and takes a look at the relationship between promotion and professional combat sports. Hatred, charisma, wit, irresponsibility, theatre and hype are all ingredients that have helped create some of combat sport's most colourful characters and ensure they have become a part of history. But why are we still outraged and surprised when fighters step over perceived lines? What choices do we have?
