Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Friday, June 5, 2026.
Where would you put Alex Pereira on the GOAT rankings if he’s able to capture a third world title?
Dana White vs. Eddie Hearn may not result in a boxing match, but the feud is far from over.
A very interesting map of the Caucasus region and the fighters who have emerged from that part of the world:
Garry Tonon vs. Ryan Hall in the cage would be one of the highest level BJJ-in-MMA collisions of all time. Book it!
Joshua Van replies to Muhammad Mokaev’s recent comments:
American Top Team has plenty of experience navigating these waters of team mates fighting one another.
Given it’s “No Mercy,” I’m surprising Petr Yan didn’t dig a liver shot at some point.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Corkscrew uppercut from the open stance is a dangerous shot.
I would much rather see retired UFC fighters grappling rather than BKFC.
If you see a robot dancing like Mac from Always Sunny, best get out of the way.
