Welcome to Midnight Mania!<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Thursday, Oct. 2, 2025.<\/p>\n
Conor McGregor kind of hating the biggest star of a company he\u2019s invested in will never not be funny. If only McGregor vs. Mike Perry could actually happen some day \u2026<\/p>\n
Further evidence that 100% of MMA fighters are real estate agents in training. On a serious note: I would absolutely trust Sage Northcutt to help buy my property. He\u2019s genuinely as good-hearted as they come!<\/p>\n
UFC Qatar is absolutely stacked with quality fights.<\/p>\n
Per usual, I can find the logic in Jiri Prochazka\u2019s unusual line of thinking. The brain may not be a muscle, but it can be trained!<\/p>\n
I\u2019m going to offer a conflicting opinion: a few small and fairly basic wrestling adjustments could have seen Dricus Du Plessis create many more scrambles and potentially find better success against Khamzat.<\/p>\n
Tim Elliott potentially incriminating himself here for the good of the podcast.<\/p>\n
Slips, rips, and KO clips<\/p>\n
Ducking into one of the most powerful strikes in the sport \u2014 ouch!<\/p>\n
Based on all available evidence, defense is not allowed in South Korean MMA.<\/p>\n
About as emphatic of a jab knockdown as I\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n
The idea of doing absurd feats of strength at some random 24 Hour Fitness or equivalent chain gym is always quite funny to me.<\/p>\n
