Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Visit newsbetting.cv for more information.

Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, July 14, 2026.

1. Conor McGregor versus … Machine Gun Kelly?!? MGK reignites feud, buries ‘F—k Liddell’: I’m just glad we’ve found a winnable matchup for The Mac.
2. UFC Oklahoma’s Dricus Du Plessis mocks ‘horrible’ Brendan Allen, slams ‘ridiculous’ Strickland-Khamzat rematch: I understand rebooking Strickland vs. Khamzat from a financial sense, but Nassourdine Imavov clearly deserves the next shot from a sporting perspective.
3. UFC parts ways with Michel Pereira following Shara Bullet loss in Baku: Michel Pereira hasn’t been fun to watch in a while now, but he also got hosed by the ref in his final UFC loss — that’s a rough pill to swallow.

Insomnia

At age 43, Jan Blachowicz is still ranked at No. 4 in the official UFC rankings. That’s only possible with a high level of professionalism!

😭😳 Jan Blachowicz calls Jamahal Hill ‘fat’ and says he ‘eats a lot of shit’

“Did you see how fat he is right now? So I’m not impressed

I’ve had a lot of injuries and surgeries and I’ve never looked so bad like him, so he just eat a lot of shit I think.”

A little more from the former Polish champion, as Jan Blachowicz gives his account of what happened with his UFC Serbia matchup.

I just wanna clear some things concerning my fight and the changes. This is how it went down.

I got a call to fight Ankalaev a week early. At this very moment I didn’t know if I could make the weight.

I say – YES – but in catchweight. Ankalaev said – NO – to catchweight. I…

Dan Hooker offers some interesting insight into the Lightweight title picture:

Dan Hooker: "UFC never wants a clear No. 1 contender." 😲

"If there's one clear contender, then negotiating with that one guy becomes very difficult because he can ask for a lot of money."

Slips, rips, and KO clips

Great KO and all, but I keep getting stuck on that tiny squared cage. BKFC should take note …

I wish we had a slightly better viewing angle for this choke — I’ve never seen a ninja choke set up from the bottom quite like this.
