Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Friday, July 24, 2026.
Merab Dvalishili trains like a dingus and thus enters every single fight, so I’m not sure this excuse helps him much.
One has to wonder about the accuracy of a Mike Tyson story at this stage, but this is very funny nevertheless.
I greatly enjoyed this exchange between former Welterweight champions Georges St. Pierre and Matt Serra.
I forgot this fight happened.
Being the most delusional MMA fighter is a remarkable feat, but Shara Magomedov is building a case. Didn’t he just foul Michel Pereira four times to barely win a boring decision?
Ref really had to show off his takedown defense here!
Miles Jury breaks down the numbers behind his UFC lawsuit settlement.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
A well-timed overhand set up by some false starts:
Sumo from nearly 60 years ago:
Both men throw right hands, one takes his head off the center line.
True story: that chord and carabiner setup is the exact same as mine … which is unsettling given the context.

Midnight Music: I never heard this original until a few days ago.
Sleep well Maniacs! More martial arts madness is always on the way.
