Spinning Back Clique REPLAY: UFC 306 gets new champs at Sphere, Chandler gives up on McGregor, Jones-Miocic, more

Check out this week's "Spinning Back Clique," MMA Junkie's weekly live show that takes a spin through the biggest topics in mixed martial arts.

This week's panel of Farah Hannoun, Mike Bohn and Danny Segura will join host "Gorgeous" George Garcia live at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT) to discuss and debate the following topics:

• UFC 306 is in the books, and both headlining champions lost their titles. Sean O'Malley and Alexa Grasso lost dominant unanimous decisions to Merab Dvalishvili and Valentina Shevchenko, respectively. Beyond that, several fighters had breakthrough performances, including Diego Lopes, who badly battered former two-time UFC title challenger Brian Ortega. We'll unpack the UFC's debut at Sphere and all the technical magic that came with it.

• The main event for the UFC's return to Madison Square Garden in November was finally announced: a heavyweight title fight between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic was made official by the promotion. Accompanying Jones-Miocic at UFC 309, a lightweight bout pitting Charles Oliveira against Michael Chandler was also announced. We break down both matchups and discuss what's at stake.

• Finally, with Chandler fighting Oliveira, this leaves the question: What is going to happen with Conor McGregor? McGregor and Chandler were linked to fight for more than a year, and yet that fight never came to fruition, despite a failed booking and the two participating on last year's season of "The Ultimate Fighter." McGregor reacted to the news and said that he's been ready, but feels he's been kept "out of the loop." What is going on? We discuss.
