My hair is getting wilder and so is the situation between Rodtang and ONE Championship ahead of ONE: Samurai www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCNi...

Some longtime staples atop ONE are out: Franklin, Hume, and the entire push into the US. www.lowkickmma.com/one-champion...

ONE has cancelled their show in Denver this June as well 😬 (from the Ball Arena website)

Xiong Jingnan is free from ONE jail: a reaction, and where I'm seeing she'll fight next: youtu.be/B5V9_OFX_bU

RIP ONE 174 🙏 (originally scheduled for April 2)

What's bigger- Rousey vs. Carano or UFC White House. First, we gotta talk about what BIG is. 🤔 www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF19...

One-way destruction from Vallejos and we've got a new featherweight contender from Argentina

Oh Smith submits Yoo! Just like we all thought

Yoo eats a huge knee but getting the fight down where he wants it. He's all over Smith now. #UFCVegas114

As soon as I heard Elijah Smith signed with the UFC, I was like hm, I wonder if he's related to former fighter Gilbert Smith. Turns out I was right!

Ok, we got sneaky banger on our hands with Anders v Tavares #UFCVegas114

Wouldn't mind seeing Bia Mesquita get a shot against a ranked opponent next after running over Rendon #UFCVegas114

Less than a week after his win at UFC 326, “The Tibetan Eagle” Sumudaerji has his next assignment. He’ll fight American Alex Perez at UFC Macau on May 30th, per a UFC press release.

Main and co-main of #UFCMacau announced by Dana White! 🇨🇳Song Yadong vs. 🇧🇷Deiveson Figueiredo 🇨🇳Zhang Mingyang vs. 🇺🇸Alonzo Menifield

Arman is still the most deserving of a title shot, but if he needs to stay busy, I could see the UFC booking a rematch with Oliveira for the main event of a FN in Brazil. #UFC326

Suddenly we've got a logjam again at the top of the LW division. Topuria-Gaethje in June, Tsarukyan deserving but (?), now Oliveira with a strong claim for another shot. #UFC326

Not the fight we all expected with a full Oliveira shutout after 4. Don't expect this to change in the last round. #UFC326

Terrible round for Max. Charles Oliveira kicks this off doing Charles Oliveira things and nets a 10-9 R1. #UFC326

Zhang Weili is a UFC Hall of Famer for her first war with Joanna Jędrzejczyk at UFC 248 #UFC326

Fun round, and the head kick landing for Xiao. He takes that first round. #UFC326

Clear win for Nyamjargal. That's two Asian flyweights that could enter or sit just outside the rankings after tonight. #UFC326

Sumudaerji def. Jesus Aguilar via Unanimous Decision (30-27 x3) #UFC326

Range difference really doin it for Sumudaerji 10-9 for the Tibetan Eagle #UFC326

Real, REAL short left hook, and Fernandez's 0 gets flushed down the drain. A night of violence is underway. #UFC326

Shang Zhifa vs. Zhou Qiyang rematch added to JCK on 3/28. Their first fight in 2024 saw Shang win with a face crank. That and four more fights added to 3/28.

I teamed up with the good folks at @moreperfectunion.bsky.social to tell the story of UFC’s monopoly and their attempted boxing takeover. Please share far and wide. youtu.be/7iKoH6LceBo?...

It seems like most of us are tilting this towards Kavanagh, and Moreno is showing a ton of wear and tear. This is a quite unforeseen turn of events. #UFCMexicoCity

This is such a weird fight and emblematic of the UFC's recent matchmaking pitting ranked contenders against fighters way down the totem pole. For Kavanagh's sake, I hope he can at least have a good account of himself. #UFCMexicoCity #UFC

COME ON BUGGY

Miracle takedown from Imanol Rodriguez after Borjas was eating him alive

I think we should give Medina one more shot. You can never be sure.

My big question here is how Chiasson's conditioning will hold up. Perez is quietly climbing up a wide-open division and could be close to a title fight after Harrison-Nunes resolves. #UFCMexicoCity #UFC

Great debut for Tarin. She's physical but scrappy, and got a big frame for flyweight. I could see her going up to 135 in the future. #UFCMexicoCity #UFC

A lot to like out of Regina Tarin, even on real short notice. Imagine the pace she'll drive on a full training camp. #UFCMexicoCity #UFC

Nice combinations from Regina Tarin so far

Excited to see a new young prospect like Regina Tarin. We need all the fresh blood we can get in the women's divisions. #UFCMexicoCity #UFC

We're off to a good start with this card, keep those finishes coming. #UFCMexicoCity

I recorded some thoughts on where ONE stands with Amazon Prime and how incredibly mismatched their product is for the streaming service. And because I want to be positive sometimes, I gave suggestions on how ONE could have built their American presence better. youtu.be/hTppWi52ljw

Zhang Weili is getting into the promoting business. She's launching Born to Fight, with the first event on 2.8 in her hometown of Handan. The main event is Feng Xiaocan vs. Marina Shutova with Daermisi Zhawupasi vs. Tamerlan Megidov for the co-main.

Is nationalism preventing Chinese MMA from growing? While national pride in itself is a benefit to growing MMA's fanbase, I argue that when it's baked into the matchmaking to a fault, it doesn't benefit anyone. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT-1...
