Kevin Lee's release from the UFC seemed to come out of nowhere, but was it a total shock? That topic, along with where Lee may end up will be discussed this week on Between the Links.

In addition, the panel will discuss this past Saturday's Trilller Triad Combat event — which featured well-known MMA fighters such as Frank Mir, Mike Perry, and Albert Tumenov — and if there's a bright future for the concept, which main event is better between Rob Font vs. Jose Aldo at UFC Vegas 44, or Sergio Pettis vs. Kyoji Horiguchi at Bellator 272 for the promotion's bantamweight title, the low-key banger of the weekend, and more.

Mike Heck moderates the first BTL Championship tourney semifinals matchup between Jed Meshew and Kristen King.

How big of a step did Israel Adesanya take in his quest for greatness, and where does Robert Whittaker go from his loss to the champ in the main event of UFC 271?

This week on Between the Links, the panel will attempt to answer those questions, and give their final thoughts on the UFC's second PPV event of 2022 — including Tai Tuivasa's ceiling in the heavyweight division following his KO win over Derrick Lewis.

In addition, they'll discuss Joe Rogan no longer being part of the UFC 271 broadcast in lieu of Michael Bisping and how the UFC, and Dana White, handled the situation, the combat sports triple header on this weekend with UFC Vegas 48, Bellator 274, and BKFC's Knucklemania 2, as well as their thoughts on which event has more intrigue heading into Saturday night, and more.

Host Mike Heck will moderate the discussion with MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and José Youngs. Show goes LIVE Thursday at 3 p.m. ET / Noon PT.

Jake Paul and Tommy Fury finally faced off in the boxing ring to settle their longstanding rivalry and it was Fury who emerged with a split decision win over the YouTuber-turned-fighter. It was a competitive back-and-forth fight and arguably the most high-profile bout yet for the crossover boxing stars.

Join MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee, Damon Martin, and E. Casey Leydon as we break down how Fury and Paul fared in their grudge match. Did the fight live up to the hype? Did either man cover themselves with glory? Will there be an immediate rematch? And if not, what’s next for Fury and Paul following their showdown?

The panel also discusses the state of influencer boxing following a weekend that also saw Floyd Mayweather take on reality TV star and former Bellator fighter Aaron Chalmers in an exhibition bout. Has this trend run its course or are there still plenty of money matchups to be made?

Cory Sandhagen got back in the win column in the main event of Saturday's UFC Vegas 60 event, although the way it happened didn't make him all that happy.

MMA Fighting's Mike Heck, José Youngs, and Jed Meshew react to Sandhagen's fourth-round doctor's stoppage TKO win over Song Yadong — who had a nasty gash over his eye which led to the fight being stopped — to cap off the promotion's return to the UFC APEX, discuss who could and should be next for the one-time interim title challenger, Song's ceiling at 135, and more.
