Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s begin the evening off by looking again over the three greatest tales of Friday, July 25, 2025.
UFC 319 daring prediction? Dricus du Plessis will probably be honored with ‘second of silence’ after Khamzat steamrolls ‘Stillknocks’: It’s so enjoyable that Khamzat will both win immediately or lose dramatically. That’s simply how this match up works!
Video: Determined (and destitute) BJ Penn begs Dana White and former UFC sponsors for pressing assist – ‘About to have all the pieces stolen’: BJ Penn desperately wants assist however not in the best way he requests right here, sadly.
Facet-by-side: UFC Abu Dhabi’s Bryce Mitchell exhibits off new Bantamweight physique: I believe Mitchell’s transfer to 135-pounds is the proper choice, however I’m unsure his ceiling modifications a lot.
Insomnia
The three greatest Lightweights on the planet proper now in my view (Ilia Topuria, Islam Makhachev, and Arman Tsarukyan) all have large bankrolls behind them. The time’s they’re a-changing?
Although nothing is signed, the rumor mill is churning and suggests strongly that Mario Bautista will face Umar Nurmagomedov in October.

I don’t like his odds at victory, however I will probably be driving with “The Iron Turtle.”
Paddy Pimblett would moderately face Justin Gaethje than Arman Tsarukyan … for apparent causes.
“Everybody is aware of Justin Gaethje is a f*cking banger [fight] and he is a legend. Arman just isn’t. So I would like to combat one other legend, Justin Gaethje.”

Dan Hooker vs. Charles Oliveira feels like a completely unimaginable match up …
Somebody get up Charlie Olives and inform him we preventing in November.

On a aspect be aware Armans a bitch and he can get it too, daddy’s dwelling.

Dricus Du Plessis vs. Khamzat may be my most anticipated bout of the yr.
Mike Perry is a pure born storyteller.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Kickboxing chaos ends within the first.
Max Holloway’s proper hand does appear to hold a special degree of pace and energy at 155-pounds.
That is similar to the mix Jorge Masvidal threw to knock out Darren Until.
Random Land
I don’t like AI slop, however I do chuckle when celebrities attempt to sue content material off the web and it blows up of their face. The Streisand Impact!!
