    Apr 1 2026

    The Craic is back for a special Wednesday edition, with Petesy Carroll, Chuck Mindenhall, and Ben Fowlkes as usual.

    The lads kick things off by reacting to Israel Adesanya’s loss to Joe Pyfer and what it could mean for the next phase of his career (05:00).

    From MMA to wrestling, the guys discuss Arman Tsarukyan vs. Uriah Faber being booked in RAF (20:15).

    Tsarukyan also made some bold comments on The Ariel Helwani Show, suggesting Max Holloway would get knocked out by Conor McGregor in their rumoured bout, which the trio dig into (31:27).

    Petesy then gets Chuck and Ben’s take on Alexa Grasso’s highlight-reel knockout-to-submission sequence (38:49), before the conversation turns to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s comments on women in MMA nearly simultaneous to Grasso’s stunning finish (44:06).

    Attention then shifts to the PFL, with the promotion reportedly considering a rebrand, including a potential return to the Bellator name. The boys brainstorm their own ideas (51:00).

    To close, the lads preview Derek Chisora vs. Deontay Wilder (01:02:07), then get to your Spring Break Super Chats (01:08:00).
