​

Sherdog Main Page writers Ant Walker and Jason Burgos want to talk things over and answer your questions on a Live Video Chat series titled "The Trenches," airing tonight at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. They also want your thoughts on a poll posted in this thread, with today's poll question asking who will win in Bellator 206's middleweight championship main event between Gegard Mousasi and Rory MacDonald.


Ant holds over 15 years of martial arts experience, training in multiple styles including Boxing, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Kung Fu and Krav Maga, and also coached amateur MMA fighters. A former Sherdog Radio Network personality and current contributor to Sherdog.com, this self-described "gym rat" seeks to impart his knowledge and discuss all things MMA with his fellow community members.

A journalist and podcaster by trade, Jason has hosted multiple different MMA podcasts including "Cheap Seats" over the years, and has penned for several publications before landing at Sherdog.com. One of the Sherdog's talented photographers/videographers, Jason attended the UFC 229 Press Conference and took some excellent photographs you can see here and on the main page.


Some questions from this week's Ask Ant thread may be answered in the live chat, and additional questions you might have in this thread may also be discussed on the video broadcast. The video will be available to watch after it concludes on the Official Sherdog Youtube channel.

When do we get Josh Gross, Jordan Breen and TJ DeSantis for a round table?

There just isn't enough "fistic" in the articles since Tomas Rios left.

Why isn't Bellator 206 on Paramount?

 

[Jackonfire]

Just want to say how much I'm enjoying this. Ant Walker and Jason Burgos keeping it both fun and informative.

Dang. Late to the party again... But. Since Mousasi as of late has been mentioning MMA Forums ( Sherdog )… Is Bellator a better fit for him?

Sherdog doing some sort of Bloody Elbow-esque talk?

Sherdog doing some sort of Bloody Elbow-esque talk?

That's our plan. The more questions y'all ask the more we can put out. We are also considering using a rotating roster for the discussions, but Ant and Burgos have great chemistry already as evidenced by this first team effort. It really depends on how much interest this generates. I'm enjoying this thoroughly myself.
