Summary

Luke Rockhold returns from more than a year away, takes some time to shake off the rust and ultimately emerges from UFC Fight Night 116 with a second-round win via strikes over Dave Branch. Pretty much just what the doctor ordered for Rockhold, who got some decent work in, faced some adversity and then nonetheless re-established himself as one of the very best middleweights in the UFC. Interesting thing is going to see what happens now, what with Michael Bisping vs. Georges St-Pierre still on tap near the end of the year. Depending on who wins that bad boy, the 185-pound division might still have some time to kill before anybody gets a chance to take on the champion. In addition to Rockhold, Mike Perry had himself a night on Saturday, and then went ahead and called out Robbie Lawler. As if that what wasn’t enough hot Octagonal action for you, UFC Fight Night 117 comes at you this week, featuring Ovince St. Preux vs. Yushin Okami as its main event. Ben and Chad talk about all this stuff and more on this week’s Co-Main Event Podcast. Plus, AYFKM and Just Sayin’ Stuff. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:36.2	Ben, you look the part today.
0:38.2	Go ahead and explain what you mean.
0:39.8	You're wearing your new t-shirt with Nick Diaz, basically from the photo of Nick Diaz,
0:46.6	lying down and putting one hand behind his head mid-fight against Anderson Silva.
0:50.7	That's right.
0:51.2	This thing really, it's great to wear around town because there's no words, nothing to explain who this is, why I'm wearing a t-shirt of him, what exactly he's doing.
1:00.3	And so if you don't know, brother, you just don't know. So a lot of confused looks from grocery
1:05.8	store, clerks and stuff like that. It's a good time. See, if I did know, I would look,
1:12.3	and I would say this guy probably hosts a mixed martial arts podcast. If I saw you on the street in that shirt.
1:16.8	You legitimately probably would come to that conclusion. And you know what? Then we would, I assume,
1:22.1	share a knowing nod and then go on our way. And I might have to explain to you that the t-shirt
1:27.1	I was wearing is a reference to the fake
1:29.5	martial art I made up for my mixed martial arts comedy podcast, which always, when you have
1:35.0	to explain it, uh, it's really cool.
