UFC bantamweight champ Sean O’Malley decided to release a new video from a 2016 sparring session with flyweight titleholder Alexandre Pantoja, where O’Malley delivered a devastating body kick that led to the spar being halted.

On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck reacts to Friday’s video release from O’Malley, and if it was the right call. Additionally, listener topics include Jon Jones pitching a fight with Alex Pereira over Tom Aspinall, if Jones’ legacy changes with a win over Stipe Miocic when they end up fighting, Saturday’s UFC St. Louis card, if the PFL should sign Jose Aldo, and much more.

You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.
