Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight
Welcome to Midnight Mania!
In one of the most bizarre sequences I’ve ever seen, someone is claiming that they married Nick Diaz… sort of. Chloe Standley, via her Youtube and Instagram pages, originally claimed she married Diaz in Vegas, with her brother officiating. However, later, on her Instagram, she contradicted this story. The post has since been deleted, she said that she hadn’t actually married Diaz yet, but had sex with him.
Here are screenshots of that post, with the girl claiming she is a Christian with attachment issues, that she isn’t married yet, and that Nick doesn’t wear rings because he’s a fighter.

The part about her sleeping with Diaz appears true at least. This appears to be Nick on her Instagram below.
Then, she said she wants to be a singer, and she is using Nick as a fame channel. She doesn’t elaborate… at all.
It’s really not my business; for all I know they are soulmates; but from the vibe I get, Nick might be best advised to stay away from this girl going forward.
Insomnia
Werdum half-apologized for the gay slurs he was hurling at Tony Ferguson. If he wasn’t taking money from a Chechen dictator who rounds up gay people for concentration camps, I might be more inclined to view him more charitably.
Maricon is common word in the Spanish culture and I do not mean to offend anyone in the LBG community and if I did I’m apologetic #heeyy

Joe Hand, the UFC’s broadcast partner, is facing lawsuits, which is ironic because they are famous for ruthlessly suing any bars that played UFC Pay-Per-Views without paying for licensing.
Any $$ collected from suing alleged #UFC & boxing piraters was supposedly split 60/40 btw Joe Hand & attorney.

Aljamain Sterling wanted to clear things up after last night’s spat with Jimmie Rivera’s wife on Twitter
For the record. I did not call little Jimmys wife a “bitch”. I rewrote what she said, and forgot the quotes. I was surprised he involved her https://t.co/9FBYuWVkUS

Even McGregor is tired of McGregor talking.

I hope this does not happen. Pay your taxes this time, Mayweather.

McGregor thinks he would beat Mayweather if they fought again.

That does suck.
So USADA has to literally know everywhere I’m going to be for next 4 months which sucks because I hardly know where I’ll be a week from now.
