Today on MMA Nation on 106.7 WJFK: Jon Fitch, Alan Belcher and Chad Dukes

Mmanation_medium

Today on "MMA Nation" we'll be joined by UFC 100 competitor and UFC welterweight contender Jon Fitch. We'll talk to Fitch about his fight with Paul Thiago, the UFC video game, Cain Velasquez vs. Shane Carwin and more.

We'll also talk to UFC 100 competitor and UFC middleweight contender Alan Belcher. We'll ask Belcher about his upcoming fight with Yoshihiro Akiyama, training with Duke Roufus, wanting to have a breakout performance and more.

Last, but certainly not least, we'll talk to WJFK midday host (also the host of Red Ring of Death Radio) Chad Dukes. We'll have Dukes in studio to talk the rumor that the UFC will ban any fighter not currently under Zuffa contract if they sign likeness rights away to EA Sports.

And, of course, the latest and greatest in MMA news will be discussed as well.

"MMA Nation" airs every Saturday 7:00pm EST to 9:00pm EST on 106.7 WJFK. To listen live over the Internet, go to WJFK's website and click "Listen Live".

I'm also now on Twitter: @mmanation.

Congrats!

…question: you guys had your first show on the fourth of July? ..interesting.

No, the day was different. But it’s the approximate Saturday, i.e. the first Saturday in July.

Why would fighters sign with EA sports, is EA putting out an MMA game? I heard that UFC just banned a slew of sponsors, which really sucks! How are these fighters supposed to pay for training if their lifelines are slowly cut away? I’m looking forward to the show!

Here is EA’s official link to their up and coming MMA game – http://mma.easports.com/home.action

I’m sure it’ll be fairly good!

He brought a virus-spreading ad to the site’s attention. Nick said it would be taken care of on another thread.

Oh okay..

I was wondering why he was that pissed about an ad haha.

well to be fair, the show happened on a holiday already

so it would be even extra hassle for them to upload it…. but yeah, i wanted to hear about the Jon Fitch segment.

Left for the beach, but I’m trying to get them up ASAP.
