Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, July 28, 2026.
Jon Jones should know better than to break kayfabe on camera like this.
I think “Max Holloway point down going horribly wrong” has become one of my favorite genres of clip.
I can appreciate Kamaru Usman’s honesty here, but also … the Leon Edwards trilogy bout was similarly one-sided.
This is a hilarious straw to break Bryce Mitchell’s back.
A somewhat intriguing unranked Heavyweight fight? Pinto looks to be a decent prospect, and Spann is always fun.
Khamzat Chimaev dropping it low, Chechen style.
Paulo Costa calls his shot in uniquely “Borrachinha” fashion. The Age of AI Slop is upon us!
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Caught along the ropes by hard power punches:
The golden rule of the belly-down armbar: look at the feet, not the head!
If you’re caught in a buggy choke in MMA, you have to at least try to pick up the guy and slam him … ideally with the Gerald Harris-style forearm in the the throat to ensure the back of his head meets canvas first.
Have you ever seen a movie in 4d?
