Televised Combat Sports Schedule
Boxing, MMA and Wrestling
There’s always a lot happening in the world of combat sports and I know it can be hard to remember what’s going on and when it’s going down.
With that in mind, I’ll be providing this weekly list to help keep you informed of all the various people punching, kicking and slamming each other around the world.
Personal recommendations:
-Richman and Rickels are both warriors and former MMA standouts. That should be a good scrap.
-The UFC card is solid, if not exactly star-studded. The price tag makes the eyes boggle a bit though.
-As great as GGG has been, the standout boxing match is on Showtime. Lubin vs. Fundora is a pick-em fight while the two shows on DAZN feature what is expected to be relatively one-way traffic.

This is beyond helpful. No one combines MMA, boxing, and wrestling schedules so this is very much appreciated.
