Welcome to Midnight Mania!<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, July 7, 2026.<\/p>\n

Collective bargaining with the boyzzz?<\/p>\n

Good show of respect between Benoit Saint Denis and Max Holloway, who could conceivably fight someday.<\/p>\n

All this drama over half a pound? Get back in the sauna!<\/p>\n

\u201cRaw Dog\u201d Royval is a real one.<\/p>\n

In his defense, that was a very pretty wheel kick \u2026 just the wrong tool for the job.<\/p>\n

For those who don\u2019t remember: Kamuela Kirk fought in the UFC three times, defeating Makwan Amirkhani before losing to Damon Jackson and Esteban Ribovics.<\/p>\n

Slips, rips, and KO clips<\/p>\n

A quick look at short-notice UFC newcomer John Garza:<\/p>\n

Jump knee against a wounded opponent along the fence is a great strategy.<\/p>\n

Note how Abbasov angles off here while throwing the punch \u2014 that\u2019s what makes it an actual check hook!<\/p>\n

I am delighted to introduce a new (to me) combat sport.<\/p>\n
