Aljamain Sterling is at the crossroads. By Sterling’s own admission, Saturday should mark the end of his two-year championship reign as he defends his bantamweight title against Sean O’Malley in the UFC 292 main event. His expectation is that he defeats O’Malley and then moves up a division to immediately challenge featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski,

The UFC returns to Boston this Saturday for UFC 292, and the heat has been turned up for the bantamweight championship main event between Aljamain Sterling and Sean O’Malley.

Colby Covington doesn’t see himself competing in Madison Square Garden at UFC 295 in November. It’s been over a year and a half since “Chaos” stepped foot inside the octagon. In March 2022, Covington defeated his former best friend turned bitter rival Jorge Masvidal at UFC 272 via a unanimous decision and has rarely been

After a raucous press conference in support of UFC 292, Aljamain Sterling and Sean O’Malley finally faced off for cameras. It was the bantamweights’ second staredown after Sterling’s UFC 288 win over Henry Cejudo, and it was just as heated as the champ and challenger exchanged heated words as UFC President Dana White separated them,

Dustin Poirier wants to see an even playing field in the UFC when it comes to drug testing. The lightweight division is consistently full of drama, great matchups, and high stakes, which often proves why it’s one of the best divisions in all of MMA, if not the best. Storylines and talent are never sparse

Eighteen-year-old Raul Rosas Jr. returns to the octagon this fall after suffering the first professional setback of his young career.

Michael Chandler completed his takeover of The Ultimate Fighter 31 finals. With Cody Gibson (19-8) defeating Rico DiSciullo (11-2, 1 NC) on the season finale of TUF 31, it’s now official that all four fighters set to compete in Saturday’s finals at UFC 292 will have originally come from Team Chandler.

Francis Ngannou remains at odds with his former promotion, especially after a graphic came to his attention following UFC Vegas 78 on Saturday. The ex-heavyweight champion, who left the UFC in free agency to ink a deal with the PFL and box Tyson Fury in October, was alerted that middleweight Tafon Nchukwi was touted as

Eddie Hearn didn’t think much of the Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz fight. Earlier this month, Paul and Diaz finally faced off in a highly anticipated boxing match, with Paul winning a unanimous decision after 10 rounds of spirited action. Heading into the bout, many felt Diaz was little more than cannon fodder for Paul,

Amanda Lemos will challenge Zhang Weili for the UFC strawweight championship on Saturday in the co-main event of UFC 292 in Boston, and the last woman to beat her predicts an upset at the TD Garden. Jessica Andrade, who tapped Lemos with a standing arm-triangle choke in April 2022, saw Lemos rebound with back-to-back finishes

Conor McGregor has ambitious plans for his UFC return. The former two-division champion, who hasn’t fought since suffering a devastating broken leg in his most recent outing against Dustin Poirier in 2021, has long been expected to clash with fellow The Ultimate Fighter 31 coach Michael Chandler in his next bout. It appears that is

Chris Avila is looking for even bigger fights after his dominant win over Jeremy Stephens as part of the Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz card. The lopsided victory was Avila’s fourth in a row since making the transition to boxing full time, and he didn’t need to look any further than the front row of

Vicente Luque returned to the octagon for the first time in over a year and looked like a new and improved version of himself as he earned a unanimous decision victory over Rafael dos Anjos in the main event of UFC Vegas 78. MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck, Eric “New York Ric” Jackman, and E. Casey

Terrance McKinney needed a big performance to get back on track, and he did just that on Saturday.

Ten weeks into its summer run, the UFC isn’t slowing down, with UFC Vegas 78 set to take place this weekend. Headlined by a welterweight matchup between Rafael dos Anjos and Vicente Luque, the rest of the UFC’s offering this week is decidedly underwhelming as all eyes look ahead to UFC 292 next weekend.
