Another of our infamous and patented Care/Don’t Care Previews with me, Kid Nate and co-host extraordinaire Eugene S. Robinson, author of Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You’d Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking is here.

As always with the Care/Don’t Care preview — the caveat — no disrespect is intended to the fighters. This isn’t a commentary on the skill, heart or entertainment potential of any fighter, just a commentary on the UFC’s marketing of said fighters and whether or not any anticipation has been built for the fight.

Today Kid Nate and Eugene discuss:

  • Can Brian Ebersole handle the pressures of fame? Wait did you say Brian Ebersole and “pressures of fame” in the same sentence?
  • Hitler’s escape from the bunker
  • Who’s more of a GICTA (Guy I Can’t Trust Anymore): Shawn Jordan or Derrick Lewis?
  • Alex Cacares aka Bruce LeRoy, his brother and sensitivity around suspected cuckholding/”How’s Taste My Pee Pee” issues or “eskimo brotherhood” makes some men more uncomfortable than others
  • Joe Soto is not to be confused with George Soros or Peter Sotos
  • Is Thiago Tavares too one-dimensional for today’s UFC?
  • The name Yancy
  • Should Eugene pick Ben Rothwell because he’s a friend of Knuckle Up or because Matt Mitrione is a GICTA?
  • The sadz of Dan Henderson fighting again
  • Much much more

Enjoy!
