Hello there, everybody. Maybe I should unmute myself like a friggin professional, but here we are, everybody. Those are the Victory Horns. They sound for Uros Medic. And it kind of sounds for the whole Belgrade Serbia crowd because they were on fire, they were awesome. We broke all sorts of Finnish records tonight. Most first round finishes, I believe, was the most finishes ever on a UFC card. 12 out of 14 fights, and you know what?
It was a good time. This is what we said it would be. There were a whole bunch of squash matches here, and almost every single one of them went exactly the way we thought it was going to go. And yeah, not a bad way to spend your Saturday morning slash afternoon, but I am Mike Heck. Welcome to the UFC Belgrade Post Fight Show. And joining me is the one and only Mr. No Gray Area himself, Mr. PFL himself, the one and only Jed Meshew. Jed, how are we doing? How are we feeling?

**Jed Meshew** (2:30)
Good, Mike, don't feel bad about being muted. A couple of weeks back when I ran solo, I think the week you were at RAF and I had to do a solo show, I was silent for like four minutes before I checked the comments. And they were like, I wonder if Jed's ever going to figure out that he's... We can't hear him.
Yeah, it's really tough scenes. So it happens. Good, man. It is 345
The fights are over and the fights were fun. Were these fights super meaningful? Mostly not. But that main event, I think, ended up being meaningful.
And incredibly fun day at the office. There's really only one bad fight. Like we had two decisions on the card. And one of those was like, if they gave that fight of the night, I think like nobody would be upset about that. Like that was a very fun fight. And then there was one bad moment on the card, realistically. And everything else was, even if it was a lot of squash matches and we knew them, there were some upsets that happened. Like some, Matusha Beshkin was a really big favorite and lost. Or not, Beshkin-Kline, sorry.
Like these are, this was a really fun event. I know that they go where they get paid, right? That's what the UFC does. I suspect Serbia Belgrade would pay them to come back anyway. But you got to imagine after an event like this, if certainly if this were the old days where it wasn't purely who's paying us a site fee, they would be like, we're putting, we're putting Serbia maybe not on like a full rotational list, like you do Canada and London, etc. But like, hey, we're definitely going to be back here within the next couple of years. And the crowd was on fire. We got some soccer hooliganism in the stands with flares. Great time. Great, great early morning.

**Mike Heck** (4:26)
Great early morning indeed.
I think I'm trying to see upset wise. Gilbert Urbina was obviously a big upset.
Yeah. Taufik Masayev. I can't believe I'm stunned he was that big of an underdog. But yeah, great win for Taufik Masayev. Rebechka was a huge favorite. Milosevic was a huge favorite. This is, I mean, look, this was outside of, I'm trying to just look at the betting lines right now. Janisic Gugnan was like close to even money. Valentin Tudorovic was close to even money. And everything else was like at least two to one or worse. And most of them were like five to six to one. And this is, it's okay to do this. It is actually like better to do this. We like this every once in a while. Apex cards should all be match made like this. Where it's just-
