UFC Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanovski returns this weekend at UFC 298, to his best weight class, to defend his title against up-and-coming star Ilia Topuria.  We preview that fight, and the rest of a pretty solid card in the first half of this week's episode.

Then in the second half of the show we run down the results of UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs. Pyfer.

Finally, in our Hammer History segment we look back 500 episodes to mid-March 2014, where we were on location in Natal, Brazil, conducting some awkward post-fight interviews at UFC Fight Night: Henderson vs. Shogun 2.
