Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Monday, June 22, 2026.

1. Pic: Super fun Conor McGregor-led UFC 329 main card revealed: There’s not a bad fight on the UFC 329 main card. I’m really looking forward to Sandhagen vs. Bautista!
2. UFC star Dustin Poirier arrested in Georgia: Life after fighting isn’t necessarily easier than being a top-notch professional.
3. Alex Pereira ‘afraid’ to make UFC return, teases retirement in wake of Herb Dean scandal: I like “Poatan,” but I feel like he has a history of threatening retirement/walking away, so … I don’t buy it.

Insomnia​

Colby Covington may be retired from UFC competition, but trash talk lives forever … I guess. In other words, Jorge Masvidal did nothing wrong.

Andre Lima is not pleased about his upset loss to Kevin Borjas. Oh, and he’s moving up to Bantamweight?

The coward spent 10 minutes running during the fight and the other 5 minutes laying on the ground resting. Great strategy if your goal is not to get knocked out .

I’m pretty sure this guy bet his house on himself. Damn, I’m so stupid for losing to someone that terrible pic.twitter.com/WV8cDN3Q1b

I’ve already informed the UFC that I’m moving up to bantamweight. Now the question is: who should be my next opponent?

I’m ready to fight in six to eight weeks. At bantamweight, I’m ready for anyone. I’m hungry, motivated, and looking for the biggest challenge available.

If you make it through the whole seven minutes, you’re a much stronger person than me.

Are prediction markets semi-legalized fraud? I’m setting the odds at 2-1.

Polymarket, the UFC's official prediction market partner, built fake betting sites, paid creators to fake wins, and used teen clippers in Asia to make it go viral in the US, where it's been banned since 2022. The WSJ just blew it wide open.https://t.co/wDwFSOFtkj

Strange matchmaking, Myktybek Orolbai should be knocking on the doors of a ranking.

“Most ridiculous-looking kick ever” but the loser threw two right kicks that were equally ridiculous (but in a bad way).

Nothing like throwing a right hand to setup a takedown only to accidentally win via KO.
