Welcome to Midnight Mania!<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026.<\/p>\n
Michael Johnson and his team had the following to say about their cancelled bout versus Alexander Hernandez: \u201cWe were obviously disappointed by the cancellation, as Michael had an outstanding training camp and was fully prepared to compete. That said, we understand and respect the UFC\u2019s responsibility to protect the integrity of the sport. In today\u2019s environment, particularly with the growth of regulated sport\u2019s betting and heightened scrutiny across professional sports, these matters have to be taken seriously. We appreciate the open communication from the UFC throughout the process, and our focus now is working with them to have Michael rebooked as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arman Tsarukyan\u2019s dad has an opportunity to do the funniest thing imaginable.<\/p>\n
The best Volkanovski skit since he dressed up like an old man.<\/p>\n
Jean Silva vs. Arnold Allen was very much my personal UFC 324 \u201cFight of the Night.\u201d<\/p>\n
Given his 0-3 UFC record, I cannot imagine anyone is too shocked by this release.<\/p>\n
Does anyone else expect Alexander Volkanovski to wrestle much more aggressively in this rematch?<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t real, but I\u2019m choosing to believe Marvin Vettori thinks it is.<\/p>\n
Slips, rips, and KO clips<\/p>\n
An interim LFA champion on a 12-fight win streak who knocks people out with body shots? Why isn\u2019t he signed yet?<\/p>\n
An amazing read and counter to the straight left hand:<\/p>\n
Ex-UFC Middleweight Armen Petrosyan demonstrating the competition isn\u2019t much easier on Russian regional shows than UFC undercards.<\/p>\n
I love absurd feats of strength\/weird exercises.<\/p>\n
