Bloodyelbow.com

Welcome to IF I DID IT where we analyze and solve PR kerfuffles from the MMA world (insert hand gesture) not beyond.

Kid Nate of Bloody Elbow (who has a podcast about rock and roll history) and Eugene S. Robinson, from ozy.com and author of “Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You’d Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking” join host Alexei Auld for another episode of If I Did It. Collectively, they make up the MMA Puncholes. Join them right after this show for If the Shoes Fit, where they go beyond the world of MMA.
