Welcome to Midnight Mania! The idea for the billionairevs. billionaire brawl between Tesla’s Elon Musk and Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg has only been circulating since the end of June, but the hype built quickly. Betting odds dropped and lukewarm trash talk simmered. A whole bunch of UFC fighters chose their corner, and UFC President Dana White
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
What a massive effort for the New Yorker just a few days ahead of his teammate and training partner Aljamain Sterling stepping into the Octagon. He’s now won four straight since his loss to UFC prospect and DWCS alum Christian Rodriguez, and probably punched his ticket to the UFC with this performance.
‘The Last Emperor’ famously retired from the sport of MMA earlier this year after his rematch with Ryan Bader. Four years after suffering a first-round stoppage loss to ‘Darth’, the rematch went the same way. In the main event of Bellator 290, Fedor Emelianenko suffered a first-round knockout loss. Following the defeat, the Russian legend
It’s that time of year again, as Dana White’s Contender Series is back with 10 straight weeks of mixed martial arts (MMA) action. This week’s show starts at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+ (because of The Ultimate Fighter 31 final episode), then things switch back to the usual 8 p.m. ET time slot moving forward.
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,

Adesanya warns du Plessis “Definitely, (Chimaev could pass Du Plessis). But again, I do wanna fight Dricus,” Adesanya said. “But he has to know, he’s not calling the shots here. That’s the thing, I am. So, again, ‘My foot was this, my foot was that.’ Yeah… We’ll see.” Quotes via MMA News Israel Adesanya is
Welcome to Midnight Mania! Da’Mon Blackshear is setting himself up for an incredible August. “Da Monster” fought just a couple days ago at UFC Vegas 78, securing just the third twister submission in UFC history over Jose Johnson (watch highlights).

Aug 14, 2023, 09:00 AM ET The UFC returns to New England this weekend as the promotion hosts UFC 292 in Boston on Saturday night (10 p.m. ET on ESPN+ PPV, with prelims at 8 p.m. on ESPN/ESPN+). The fight card will be headlined with a bantamweight title fight as Aljamain Sterling looks to set
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
The other part for me is that while he can say all the things he wants about “I’m the superstar,” he’s never been in a five-round fight, he’s never main-evented; he’s actually never been “The Guy.” Chartier: It’s always been “I’m gonna be the guy when I’m ready,” but now you’ve put all that pressure
‘I can’t wait to make the UFC Sugar-free’ “I’m excited for this opportunity, my second main event in a row. They gonna start calling me Aljamain Event after this one. Make sure you guys tune in, this is going to be a big opportunity for myself,” Aljamain Sterling said on UFC Embedded. “The Long Island
Eddie Hearn had mixed feelings about the spectacle that was Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz in Dallas, Texas on Aug. 5, 2023. Longtime mixed martial arts (MMA) star, Diaz, was unable to come up victorious in his professional boxing debut at Middleweight, dropping a 10 three-minute round unanimous decision to “The Problem Child” (watch highlights).
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
She also regrets basing some of her preparation on Hardy’s previous fights, saying she trained for “a girl who didn’t exist.” When the two fought in March, Hardy hadn’t fought in three years. When they stepped into the Octagon, Miller didn’t get the kick-heavy attack she anticipated, and she couldn’t adjust quickly enough to get
Rockhold’s next step Rockhold and Jones will collide on September 21 at the Pais Arena in Jerusalem. As of this writing, there’s been no confirmation regarding the official ruleset or what weight class it’ll be contested at. Based on sheer experience alone, many feel as if Craig Jones is the clear favorite heading into this
It ain’t easy to make it into Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), or to make $1 million fighting for the promotion. At least not the normal way where you’re a new fighter starting on a $12,000/$12,000 contract. But, if you’re viral internet sensation Hasbulla, then things become a bit easier. Fans were in full “WTF Mode”
