Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2025.
Francis Ngannou vs. Vadim Nemkov would genuinely be one of the best non-UFC matchups possible. Here’s hoping!
Here’s your reminder that Bryan Battle’s Dirty Boxing debut is THIS FRIDAY! Life comes at ya quick …

Last night’s Contenders Series signee Manoel Sousa is also the only man to KO Mauricio Ruffy.
Nasty opening combo then an absolutely brutal angle on the guillotine finish.
South Lake Tahoe bears are just big dogs.
