Following a busy week in which the Ultimate Fighting Championship promoted a staggering three events in eight days, “Back Talk” has returned to answer questions from the Sherdog forums regarding the fallout.

In this new edition of the video series, questions posed by the forums included what might be Alistair Overeem’s best path back to a heavyweight title fight and if fans will get more mid-week events from the UFC in the coming weeks. Do commentators have a greater influence on judging inside fan-less arenas? Should the UFC wait for a September clash between Justin Gaethje versus Khabib Nurmagomedov, or get Conor McGregor involved sooner? All of this and more are addressed.
