Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Monday, Sept. 14, 2026.
Terence Crawford beating up Canelo Alvarez and the next face of boxing in Ryan Garcia would be kind of funny. Big money there!
Israel Adesanya and Mauricio Ruffy having some fun touch sparring:
Brandon Moreno vs. Joseph Morales was a fun bit of MMA Mexican boxing. Good head movement on both sides!
Do you agree with Salahdine Parnasse’s take here on American vs. European kickboxing? In the big picture, he’s probably not wrong, but the level of kickboxing excellence in Europe hasn’t necessarily translated to the Octagon.
Tim Elliott faked a leg injury and landed a takedown TWICE in one round — legend.
Jean Silva may be a crazy person, but he’s a genuine savant in the cage once locked in.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Violent Bob Ross looks a little different than I remember …
Circled into the overhand right:
Hooking off the jab in BKFC? Nice!
Dana White’s next project?
