Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Max Holloway has developed a lot over the years. His current 12-fight win streak and the undisputed featherweight belt around his waist attest to the growth that occurred in the Octagon.

But Holloway has also grown in another area important to UFC stardom: his social media game. Max is a savvy player of the interwebs, and his trolling of Conor McGregor has been both genuine and funny. His latest zing pokes fun at McGregor’s Burger King advertisement, which, let’s be honest, was pretty easy to do.

You went from King of Ireland to King of “chicken”? Looking forward to the two strips meal coming April 7.

PS Shout out to the real fighting Irish. The ones who value whats in heart before wahts on waist. Hawaii respects you and welcomes you with open arms.

The barb comes after McGregor replied to Holloway’s praise for Frankie Edgar following UFC 222.

Holloway will face this weekend’s co-main event winner, Brian “T-City” Ortega, in his next title defense, possibly at UFC 226.


Insomnia

Cain Velasquez, contrary to what Daniel Cormier thought, would be willing to “fight’ Brock Lesnar in the WWE.

I’ve never seen a guy wrestle a horse to the ground.

Valentina Shevchenko is choosing the date she will be crowned flyweight champion.

Being chased by… a cheetah??

Brian Barbarena with a brand new workout. No one has ever tried this before.

Frankie Edgar is the definition of ‘class act’.

Meisha sided with her ex Bryan Caraway, thinking he should have gotten the nod on the weekend over Cody Stamann.

Seems like they could have found a better fight for Mirko Cro Cop than Roy Nelson. Last time they fought Nelson smothered Mirko.

“The vivid energy of the sea”

Ouch.

Roy Nelson isn’t sure Lombard should have lost by DQ- should it have been a no-contest?

Truth

Dana White made the right call, judging by the reactions to Wilder-Ortiz online.

Al Iaquinta had some pointed criticism for Andre Soukhamthath. He wasn’t the only one. Soukhamthath would almost certainly have won by TKO if he had kept the fight standing in the third round.

Leslie Smith knows how to appeal to what matters to Sean O’Malley.

Sean O’Malley’s afterparty got a little wild.


Slips, Rips, KO Clips

This kid looks promising

Rin Nakai: back with a vengeance.

I’ve never seen a wrestler just hurl another wrestler’s face into the mat like this.
