On Episode 417 of Morning Kombat the guys have a packed show for you. They start off by recapping Bellator 292. Usman Nurmagomedov easily dispatched Benson Henderson in the first matchup of the Bellator lightweight grand prix. Is it fair to say Nurmagomedov is a top 5 lightweight in the world?

Is he now the top contender at bantamweight? Plus, in boxing, Tim Tszyu stopped Tony Harrison in the 9th round in Australia to set up a showdown with Jermell Charlo. Based on his performance in this win, did his chances of victory improve?

Episode 415 of Morning Kombat is an EPIC one. The boys recap a wild weekend of combat sports, starting with a massive night at UFC 285. Who is the greatest of all-time fighter in MMA? While some consider it to be Jones after his UFC 285 victory, others disagree and suggest it belongs to GSP. Does Erin Blanchfield deserves the next title shot at the women's UFC flyweight belt after Aalentina Shevchenko got upset by Alexa Grasso. After Shavkat Rakhmonov's win over Geoff Neal at UFC 285, he called for a title shot. Should he get the winner of UFC 286's Leon Edwards vs. Kamaru Usman? In boxing, Brandon Figueroa earned the unanimous decision victory over Mark Magsayo, but was the fight closer than the scorecards indicated?
