“This was another epic interview by Pepe.”
Cagewriter.com, Yahoo Sports’ Popular MMA Blog

“This was an incredible interview. Pepe gets more in-depth with the fighters than probably anyone in the business and asks the tough questions. Very timely as well. He’s great at connecting with the fighters and getting them to open up. I really encourage you to take a listen to the Rashad Evans appearance which in all honesty is the best and most in-depth interview I have ever heard.

Once you hear one of Larry’s interviews and entire radio show episodes you will realize what good MMA radio is all about. In all honesty, this is some of the best MMA radio available anywhere. And that’s coming from someone who has listened to all of them and still listen to quite a few on a regular basis. I love the long in-depth style. I have yet to hear anyone get in there and dig deep into what the fighter is about like Pepe. Excellent stuff.”

“Just wanted to drop you guys a quick note to let you know you’re doing a fantastic job with the show. Larry Pepe’s interviews are, without a doubt, the best in the MMA industry today. His interviews with Sean Sherk and Howard Jacobs were great and the interview with Ricardo Almeida was one of the most in-depth, substantive interviews of a fighter I have ever heard. Getting beyond the interview questions typically posed to fighters and speaking to Almeida about his son’s recent autism diagnosis really took the interview to a level rarely reached in this industry. There’s a real shortage of outlets for intelligent commentary in the MMA industry and I would definitely consider your radio show among those working to fill in this gap. Please keep up the good work and send my praises to Larry Pepe for a job well done.”

“Pro MMA Radio is stellar.”
Jesse Holland, MMA Mania

“Pro MMA Radio has had a ton of early success. They do it all…fighter, manager and trainer interviews, news and notes…all your MMA is available on Pro MMA Radio every Monday night. They are really knocking it down.”

Listeners

“I tried several MMA podcasts and it just wasn’t working.  Either the hosts would “Beatdown” on me by opening every show and talking about themselves or anything but MMA for 15 minutes.  Or, my favorite, announcers making consistently obscure references to prove how knowledgeable they were while alienating me - the listener.  Then my brother turned me on to Larry’s show by introducing him as ‘the best he has found on MMA’. Larry show is great!  He starts quick - no messing around. His show is divided into three rounds.  He has a perfect balance of timely guests, event breakdowns and sport experts.  Best of all, he only has one show a week.  In this case, less is more.  I can’t keep up with more than one show week and why should I when I get everything I need in one great show? You definitely can ’submit’ any of your friends in an MMA discussion after listening to Larry’s show.  Larry is knowledgeable, has spot-on opinions, is well-respected in the industry, and knows how to get the best out of his guests.  I am a big fan.  So give it a try for just one week and it will become a great part of your week from then on.”
Craig S.

“Larry, I have followed your show from the start.  It is the best MMA show there is.  Keep up the fantastic job and best of luck!”.
John B.

“Your podcast is the first one I have found to be informational, interesting, entertaining, funny and I would miss one episode.  I’m glad I found you on iTunes!”.
Denise B.

“I’m a big fan and listen to your podcasts every week.”
Andrew D.

“Just gotta tell ya…Your MMA radio show totally kicks ass.  I mean it.  As someone who is a die-hard fan of the sport, I really have to tell you how much I appreciate what you do.

With MMA’s popularity and mainstream integration still so much in its infancy, I NEVER expected what I came across in your radio show!  You come across on the air as knowledgeable yet humble, while also clearly excited about the subject matter & very clearly a fan.  It is a winning combination of qualities.  You interview style is very impressive: respectful, direct and well-researched. This made the interviews themselves relevant and entertaining.  And I could listen to you and your guests break down every UFC event. Continue to keep up this level of reporting for a long time, and you may just find yourself regarded as MMA’s top journalist!

Sorry if this is long-winded.  It’s just that again, as a die-hard, live-and-breathe MMA fan there really has been no place for me to go and get good reporting AND good radio all-in-one…until now. So I just want to sincerely say THANK YOU. I hope you keep at this for a long time because you’re good at it.  I’ll definitely be listening.”

“the show is great and I listen every week.  Larry always keeps it on track, one topic at a time.  I find other MMA shows are all over the place.  Keep it up and wish you guys the best!”.
Joshua L.

“I have been listening to your show for a while now, among others, and I must say you do the best interviews hands down.  I just wish you show came on more often.”
Chauncey H.

“First off Larry, I want to thank you for Pro MMA Radio. Your impeccable taste in guests and your immense knowledge of MMA is second to none.  You come prepared with the best questions and you truly are the voice of the fans.  Well, I think it’s time for me to remove my lips from your ass!  Thanks for such an awesome show, Pep. Keep up the good work!”.

“I stumbled on to Pro MMA Radio through your interview with Brock Lesnar and loved your work.  I live in Australia, and it is hard at times to keep up with the news.  I look forward to listening to many more shows.  Keep up the good work!”.
Andrew H.

“Larry, love the show; my favorite MMA podcast!”.
Robert A.

“I’m a long-time listener to you show them love your ideas of how to change the sport to make it more exciting.  Especially, giving out bonuses for the earlier finishes.  Keep up the great show!”.
Andrew D., MMA Fan/Martial Artist

“Outstanding show… my first time.  Love the in-depth questioning (you really listen).  Much much better than the rest.  Leben is smart and articulate and I never would have gotten that from other shows.  Consider me a fan.”
Dennis L.

“I just want to say that ever since I discovered PMR I’ve been HOOKED and it really gets me through the day of my shady job. I’m a HUGE MMA fan (obviously since I’m listening to your show constantly) and one of my all time favorite fighters (besides Rampage, GSP, Jon Jones, Diego Sanchez, Shane Carwin, etc.) is Rashad Evans. I was listening to an old interview between you and him and couldn’t help to be moved and inspired on how much she’s been the underdog since the beginning of his career and people still don’t believe in him, which floors me after all he’s done.

Keep up the awesome work.  I’m on here every day.  Love it. The way you and Jesse Holland feed off each other comedically makes me laugh my ass off.”
Wesley C.

“Big Props from Berlin, Germany!
Just wanted to tell you that I love the the show and think you are doing a great job. Being used to more rational news broadcasts in Europe, I have a hard time listening to all the other MMA radio shows. It’s just too much “blah, blah” and self profiling of the hosts for me. What I like about your show is that you keep the sport and the athletes in the foreground, but still present your opinion in an intelligent way. So you know you got some fans here in Germany thanks to the internet!”.
