From Conor McGregor’s return to Scientology speedruns, Brendan Schaub, Bryan Callen, and Nick Simmons cover a little bit of everything on this episode of The Fighter and The Kid. The guys debate Conor’s possible UFC comeback against Max Holloway and why jumping straight into a five-round fight after years away could be a nightmare matchup for him.
They also get into Tom Cruise, Scientology, Hollywood weirdness, John Cena’s insane size, the viral Scientology “speedrun” clips, and why fame seems to make people strange. The crew reacts to Joe Rogan addressing the Theo Von backlash, the George Floyd roast controversy, Netflix fight numbers, UFC fighter pay, viral culture, Sydney Sweeney’s latest role, and Kim Kardashian’s Skims truck being tied to a cocaine bust.
Other topics include Max Holloway vs Conor McGregor, UFC comeback fights, Scientology in Hollywood, Joe Rogan and Theo Von, Tony Hinchcliffe’s roast jokes, Tom Cruise’s family situation, John Cena, The Rock, Sydney Sweeney, Netflix viewership, and the internet’s obsession with outrage.
