TTP Ep. 320 with Vinc Pichel, Darian Weeks, and UFC 273

Vinc Pichel Interview (1:52)

To kick off this week’s show, Vinc Pichel stops by. The UFC lightweight discusses how he continues to get better, even at nearly 40 years old. A lot of that fountain of youth comes from his new(ish) training camp at Factory X. He’s out here with the young guns every day and feels like one himself. He also shares his thoughts on how dangerous he believes Mark O. Madsen is (or isn’t). Ahead of the fight with the former Olympic wrestler, he discusses how all of his previous losses have come to wrestler. Not only is he not scared by that, he may even have a takedown or two in him this weekend at UFC 273.
