Michael Johnson, Jimmy Crute, UFC 318 picks

Jim and Matt are back on UFC Unfiltered with veteran guests Michael Johnson and Jimmy Crute ahead of UFC 318. Michael discusses his resurgence at 39, including a new mindset, stem cell treatments in Cancun, and how he’s embracing the gatekeeper role while aiming for one last title push. Matt, fresh off his own stem cell therapy, is especially curious about the impact ahead of Michael’s fight with Daniel Zellhuber. Later, Aussie light heavyweight Jimmy Crute joins the show — and Matt immediately crowns him a fellow Kimura Savage. Crute opens up about bouncing back from a five-fight winless streak, adjusting to the New Orleans time zone, and what to expect in his bout against veteran Marcin Prachnio. Jim and Matt wrap with their UFC 318 picks — including the BMF title trilogy between Holloway and Poirier, and other must-watch matchups.
