We're back to the APEX for another Fight Night edition of UFC Vegas (UFC Vegas 114). The Main Event is practically a ritual sacrifice, the Co-Main event is a potential make-or-break for the younger fighter, we have one awesome flyweight fight, a lot of lopsided prospect-favorites, few closely handicapped fights, a surprisingly interesting HW matchup,... […]

Anytime Max Holloway or Charles Oliveira are involved in a main event, it's certified must-see television. When they are rematching each other for the BMF Title, it's an event worth cancelling 99.99999% of other plans for (what remains is your wedding and the birth of your children). UFC 326 has taken some flak for not being... […]

The UFC takes the Fight Night show on the road for the second consecutive week -- this time, they move south of the border from Houston to Mexico City, with a card obviously stocked with Mexican fighters ready to put on a show for their crowd of countrymen. I was really hoping that the odds... […]

Two numbered events (almost said PPVs) back-to-back to start the UFC's programming in 2026. We turn to Australia, where we will see a lot of Oceanics in action, including the CEO of Australian fighters, Alexander Volkanovski. Volk is defending the UFC featherweight title against Diego Lopes, the guy who he beat for the vacant belt... […]

Welcome to the UFC in the year 2026. We are kicking off the year with a numbered event, and this weekend marks the official beginning of the UFC's deal with Paramount+ one day after the inaugural event of Zuffa Boxing (sure to stir strong feelings in both directions). So, UFC 324 really isn't PPV, we... […]

It's the final UFC event of 2025, and most of the MMA world is paused, so let's take a quick trip back through the last 365 days of the UFC. We witnessed the continued aura and dominance of champions like Ilia Topuria and Islam Makhachev playing hopscotch with the lines between weight classes--for better or worse.... […]

This Saturday, the leading promotion is heading back to Las Vegas for one last show in the Apex before the holidays. This is actually the final UFC broadcast under the U.S. media rights agreement with ESPN until the Paramount+ debut on January 24, 2026. UFC Vegas 112 features a featherweight co-main event between Giga Chikadze, […]

4 early lineup variations for #UFC323: 2 w/ Pantoja & Merab, 1 w/ Pantoja & Yan, 1 w/ Van & Merab just to see how they look.

After last week’s blockbuster UFC 322 event, the leading promotion is heading to the Middle East. For the first time, the UFC is heading to Ali Bin Hamad al-Attiyah Arena in Al Rayyan, Qatar, for UFC Qatar. UFC Qatar event features 14 fights overall, including a lightweight headliner between top contender Arman Tsarukyan and fan-favorite […]

This event is being held in Qatar--World Cup conspiracies aside, pick a fighter to win on the judges' scorecards at your own risk...unless of course they are the one that the powers that be would like to see with their hand raised. Among the mix of fighters at UFC Qatar are several touted individuals making... […]

The UFC's annual trip to Madison Square Garden in New York is always highly anticipated by fight fans because the UFC always pulls out all the stops, and it's no different this time. Former lightweight champion Islam Makhachev looks to become one of the greats who have won titles in two different weight classes when […]

Madison Square Garden is about as grand and romantic of a stage that exists in all of sports, so it's fitting that two division-defying title fights will be taking place on Saturday to include a bonafide Superfight between Valentina Shevchenko and Weili Zhang. Madison Square Garden is also home to some of the more famous... […]

We didn't have Apex Fight Nights for a bit. Now, on two UFC Vegas events in a row, we anxiously await the two PPV events left for 2025 and the high-key matchups they bring. We are inching closer every day to the UFC's lucrative Paramount deal--slates like this are the price we pay. So, it'd... […]

After yet another strange event last weekend, we're returning to the Apex in Las Vegas for UFC Vegas 111. When you look at the UFC Vegas 111 card, it's short on big names and ranked contenders and looks underwhelming. That being said, there are some intriguing matchups, and I do not doubt that these fights […]
