Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, July 21, 2026.

  1. AI? Former UFC champ unrecognizable in stunning new makeover and fight fans are SHOOK: Zhang Weili’s new look has to be seen to be believed … and even then …
  2. Colby Covington reveals surprising post-match message to Arman Tsarukyan: ‘You’re going to be UFC Lightweight champion’: It would be really nice to see Tsarukyan back in the cage with any Top Five opponent.
  3. Fake! Ilia Topuria super fan bought UFC White House stool to stop Paddy Pimblett from ‘using it against him’: It’s not every day a meme gets fact-checked. I wonder where Pimblett got his fake …

Insomnia

If the extent of Josh Hokit’s punishment is the occasional verbal lashing, do we think Dana really cares? I am doubtful.

To my knowledge, Charles Oliveira has been consistently respectful towards all his opponents over the years. There was a bit of beef with Gaethje and the “quitter” accusations, but even that was pretty mild.

Walking around at 160 isn’t unusual for a UFC Bantamweight, nor is weighing 152 on fight night.

UFC absolutely refuses to let Nathaniel Wood fight a ranked contender despite being an excellent Featherweight. Treading water against good unranked opposition is a hard gig …

Jared Cannonier is a cool dude and great potential as a coach if he pursues that path.

Kamaru Usman complaining about getting kicked in the head was a strange look.

Slips, rips, and KO clips

Maybe Cameron Smotherman shouldn’t be fighting like two months after getting smoked by Kai Asakura?

Out before he hit the ground …

Perpetua absolutely crashed forward with this 2-3.

Random Land

I enjoyed these presidential caricatures.
