After months of building, and with both getting victories this past Saturday, Arman Tsarukyan and Colby Covington will battle on the wrestling mats in the main event of RAF 11. How big of a match can that be for RAF and in the combat sports world?

On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel recaps a busy weekend in combat, including RAF 09, Covington and Tsarukyan’s wins, Merab Dvalishvili and Gable Steveson picking up victories in their promotional debuts, and the rise of the promotion overall. Additionally, topics include RAF setting up Ben Askren’s return to action on July 18 against Belal Muhammad, the fallout from UFC Macau, Song Yadong’s submission win over former champ Deiveson Figuiredo in the main event, Muhammad headlining Saturday’s UFC Fight Night card at the APEX against Gabriel Bonfim, and much more.
