Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Wednesday, Aug. 20, 2025.
Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier may have concluded their rivalry at UFC 318, but the duo are still working together! Any big spenders reading willing to spend down and support The Good Fight Foundation?
Johnny Walker fun facts ahead of UFC Shanghai! Is anybody NOT picking Walker to get KO’d this weekend?
It’s always cool when a fighter/their team identify a specific strike/setup and then nail it when it counts.
Charles Johnson defends Kai Asakura after his 0-2 UFC career start. I would still love to see Asakura vs. somebody like Ode Osbourne … or Kai Kara-France if Asakura can get a couple wins together.
Is Ilia Topuria the biggest star in MMA or has Khamzat eclipsed him?
Imagine you’re stuck in a choke and the power goes out:
Muhammad Ali shouting out Jack Johnson, a legend by any metric.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Shuffled into the overhand like he was throwing a fastball!
Fighters getting blasted when opening the fight with a naked low kick happens daily.
Is this the year of the step-in knee to the body?
