Summary

Where does Miesha Tate go from her #UFCVegas43 loss to Ketlen Vieira? Was the card as a whole as underwhelming as initially perceived? Those topics will be discussed on a brand new edition of BTL. In addition, the panel will talk what we learned from both 135ers in the main event this past Saturday, if the #UFC's final November event was a product of bad timing and oversaturation, the big wins for Sean Brady, Adrian Yanez and Taila Santos and which up and comer has the best chance to capture a UFC title first, the chances we could see Ben Askren actually return to the UFC for a fight against Nate Diaz, and much more. This week, host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA journalists James Lynch and Kristen King in the final opening round matchup of the BTL Championship tournament.

0:00.0	Yes, the iconic voice of Esther Lynn welcomes you to a special Thanksgiving week edition
0:29.8	of between the links, rolling a couple of days early this week because of the holiday. Give
0:34.0	you folks some time to enjoy family and friends and football and feast of plenty. But before
0:40.7	we enjoy that time, we have one piece of business we got to take care of. We got one more spot
0:45.1	to fill in the semifinals of the BTL championship tournament. We punched three tickets so far.
0:51.3	Today we punched a fourth and the winner will go on to face Jed Mishu in two weeks time for a spot
0:57.8	in the finals. A lot of stay here in this unofficial third meeting between these two competitors.
1:03.8	Only one of their matchups actually saw the light of day. The first time they squared off,
1:08.3	it was mired with technical difficulties so it never actually got released and then a week later,
1:14.0	they battled out again. So let's see what happens this third time around. Let us introduce the
1:18.4	competitors. First, you can find her work over at Bloody Elbow, a really great up and coming town
1:24.9	in our sport, a former colleague of mine as well over during the old fan side of days. So let
1:29.8	us welcome back one half of the BTL tag team champions of the world. Kristen King, how are you?
1:37.2	I am doing great. I couldn't believe that this was our third matchup between James and I,
1:42.4	but you're right. The first one did not see the light of day, but I will give you a spoiler alert.
1:46.8	James won that one. So I'm here to redeem myself. Hopefully I can get this bit against James Lynch,
1:52.0	but I know he's going to be a tough competitor, but I'm ready. I'm ready for the challenge.
1:56.8	There we go. I love the attitude. It was even the graphics were totally different back then too.
2:01.9	It was a long time ago. It was one of the early editions of the program as we introduced
2:05.6	said James Lynch. Another individual I've had the the privilege of calling a colleague a few
2:09.6	different times over the years. One of the few has actually peered on every single iteration of
