If I Did It: Steps into the UFC’s Covington vs Bisping cross-fire

Welcome to If I Dit It, the show where we grapple with PR kerfluffles from the world of MMA. This week we look at the case of Jon Anik inserting himself into a feud between Michael Bisping and Colby Covington.

If you buy something from an SB Nation link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

Welcome to IF I DID IT where we analyze and solve PR kerfuffles from the MMA world (insert hand gesture) not beyond.

I’m your host Alexei Auld, author of “7 Secret Sources of Inspiration: A Snappy Guide for Creative Procrastinators”, and joining me are guests Kid Nate of Bloody Elbow of the Let It Roll podcast and Eugene S Robinson, from ozy.com and author of “Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You’d Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking”, Collectively, MMA Puncholes.

You’re the UFC. Accused Domestic Violencer Greg Hardy just annihilated his opponent in less than a minute on Dana White’s Contender Series. How do you prepare for the inevitable media onslaught arising from being in the Greg Hardy business? - 1:30

You’re Michael Bisping. Do you owe Interim Welterweight Champion Colby Covington and the fans an apology for performing as a pro wrestling color commentator instead of a well heeled Fox Analyst on FS1s post UFC 225 show? - 9:25

You’re the UFC. How how do you maximize a Colby Covington championship, live and in public, if you will? - 20:50

REGULAR FEATURE: KID NATE’S HEEL TURN - 27:16

REGULAR FEATURE: EUGENE’S LOST BATTALION - 29:12
