Welcome to Midnight Mania!
We’re kicking off the night with a look back at the three biggest stories of Friday, October 16, 2026.
- UFC CEO Dana White: ‘I want $10 billion after exiting deal’: Honestly, it doesn’t seem outrageous six years from now.
- LIVE! Official BrandRisk 16 Video Stream, Full Results & Highlights | Frost vs. Osiris: BrandRisk’s popularity on this site continues to confuse me, but the results don’t lie. SOMEONE is watching this stuff!
- Farid Basharat beefs with Payton Talbott after controversial UFC release: ‘Shut your mouth, kid’: There is a good chance that Basharat will drop to the PFL, but it would be an intriguing fight.
Insomnia
For better or worse, Joaquin Buckley brings intensity to UFC Edmonton. Dana White’s face is priceless!
I hope Raoni Barcelos gets a definitive diagnosis (and a lucrative coaching job).
Let me ask you a question: Would UFC Edmonton be more interesting if it featured all of these fighters?
Sounds right.
Why are matchmakers wasting Chris Padilla’s time instead of giving him a better ranked opponent? “Taco” is undefeated in six UFC fights!
An interesting way to remember your distance…
A crazy story from the annals of boxing history:
Slips, rips and KO clips
I’ve never seen this top cut, not for a second:
Mysterious ending! As far as I can tell, Alex The Gladiator won this fight via dispersal?
Another Flyweight knockout artist rising through the CFFC ranks? Lleshi is now 6-1 and his only loss was a split decision to Bilal Hassan.
