Holding Hands and Throwing Fists

We do a deep dive into the unified rules and scoring of MMA!

In a slow week in MMA, we do some deep dives on what it was like to be a UFC while the pandemic was beginning and an intro to the history of Women's MMA.

George did nothing but watch ADCC all weekend and A**a talks about Bellator in Dublin coming up this weekend! The duo also sort of asks for opinions on merch, but then takes it back because she has all the opinions. Have fun everyone!

Welcome back everyone! We're really excited to be adopting a new format in Season 8, where we both share a singular opinion about the world of Mixed Martial Arts in depth (but still under 20 mins).

That's a wrap on Season 7 and we bring it back to basics on the Holding Hands and Throwing Fists Podcast. We talk about MMA Fashion, MMA BOO BOOs and MMA GOOD GUY!!! See you next season.

Anna's back from the Hamptons! We talk how sad we were to see Dom Cruz lose, but how happy we were to see Chito win along with a whole bunch of other fun stuff. We can't wait for the PPV this weekend between Usman and Edwards, but not sure if we're going to be awake to justify paying it.

Anna's with her mom and brother in the Long Island and George is at home trying to solocast. Turns out not to be as cool as it sounds and hopefully next episode is going to be better!

Introducing the newest makeshift segment of the week - the Quick Fire Top 7! Anna's mom still hates the podcast, but likes fighting more and more. Matt Steam Rolla keeps getting cooler in our books! And George wrote notes 2 weeks in a row!

We're back from another vacation. George was a super Debby Downer at UFC Fight Night in Long Island, UFC Fight Night in London had awesome moments and we watched it while driving to Long Island and UFC 277 this weekend is looking pretty pretty good. Last call reminder that we're planning on getting the cheapest tickets available for PFL at MSG on August 5th. Hit is up if you're interested! Love yo...

George is shirtless and we do a Top 1 - pretty good episode for not caring all that much! Let us know if you want to go to Hulu theater for PFL!

WE'RE BACK!!!!!!

George made the notes this week and things got wild! A pretty fun one if I may say so myself.

We have LIVE interviews recapping last week's UFC 274 and we preview fights that we're excited for in June and July of this year!

This is a big fight week! Do Bronx vs. Gaethje, THUG ROSE! and Canelo all fighting and we talk to our friends about it.

NEW SEASON ALERT! Bellator had 2 events and we watched neither of them. We're excited for Rob Font vs. Chito Vera as well as Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano and George talks about Justin Gaetjhe too much. Also, do we talk about the end of Holding Hands & Throwing Fists? Tune in to check out
