Welcome to Midnight Mania! Paddy Pimblett details hatred of Ilia Topuria: ‘I want to inflict pain on his life’ Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight! Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026. - Michael ‘Venom’ Page reacts to Dana White’s statement on UFC future: I fully expect Page to land himself in a high-profile fight despite the release. He’s a proven top fighter, and that’s valuable. - King Green, 31-fight UFC veteran, reveals he’s homeless (despite having NINE houses): I think Green has an established history of just saying s—t. He’s doing just fine! - Huh? Donald Trump randomly posts six-minute highlight video of unranked UFC fighter from Moldova: We’re never going to get an explanation for this. Insomnia I’d much rather see Paddy Pimblett vs. Ilia Topuria than another Gaethje fight right away. Islam Makhachev vs. Shavkat Rakhmonov is one of the most fascinating matchups possible, but you cannot blame Makhachev for living in reality as opposed to some fantasy land where Rakhmonov is healthy and ready to fight. That’s a big man to toss onto the hard floor ahead of a professional fight in just a few days. … but did he also hire Jamahal Hill’s nutritionist? It’s still odd that UFC opted for a France vs. France co-main event in Paris, but the whole thing has made me more of an Axel Sola fan. Respectful and vicious is a good combo! I don’t really understand what Roblox is, but it has RIZIN now … so that’s cool? Can Jake Paul create a fun Michael Page matchup without booking him versus a total can? Slips, rips, and KO clips Using the linear kick to convince one’s opponent to step into a big shot is exactly how Conor McGregor knocked out Jose Aldo. When an arm is trapped in the choke, the effect of the squeeze is more likely to add up over time as opposed to an instant tap/nap. Never saw the right hand coming. Random Land Volume up.

Most people you talk to will say that Alien is better than Aliens, but the. Will staunchly defend T2 over the original. Terminator is a nightmare flawless slasher with a great protagonist story arch that feeds T2. Big Trouble Little China is the best John Carpenter film. I get the impact of his remake of The Thing. Nope. Big Trpuble is the perfect 80’s action. It perfectly blends the “kung fu” tropes while not seemingly totally racist as the main character is literally a bumbling idiot. Tremors is a perfect screenplay. In the first 20 minutes it: sets the tone, introduces the main characters, establishes a threat without fully revealing the bad, leaves several plot points that will be important and actually pays them off, introduces most of the main side characters. It then goes on to pay off the earlier nods. Has a good character arch for all of the characters. It’s not too long, doesn’t take itself too serious or play everything for a joke. While not the perfect movie, it is brilliantly written. Midnight Music: Hip-hop, 2016 Sleep well Maniacs! More martial arts madness is always on the way.
