Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight!
Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2026.
- BJJ legend Andre Galvao accused of sexual misconduct, grapplers and gyms sever ties with Atos: Jiu-jitsu desperately needs to get its s—t together, the frequency of these allegations are damning.
- Ian Machado Garry’s wife thanks Carlos Prates for shutting down gross Q&A question: ‘Thank you for protecting me’: Carlos Prates is one of the coolest dudes on the roster.
- Fighting Enemies? Jean Silva is no longer friends with teammate Mauricio Ruffy – ‘It’s over’: On the other end of The Fighting Nerds spectrum, Silva is clearly the most unstable.
Insomnia
Based on UFC 324, how many current Lightweights would you pick over both Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett?
Clean shaven Jan Blachowicz is a shocking image.
“The Karate Kid” Kyoji Horiguchi has a nice ring to it.
Nick Diaz is 42 years old, fresh out of rehab, and ready to fight Khamzat Chimaev. Some people never change!
Heavy counter shots are always a great deterrent to kicks of any kind.
I really admire fighters like Mario Bautista who can pressure relentlessly or dance around on the outside depending on the matchup.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Shifting combos thrown with bad intention:
Sometimes throwing a massive looping right hook pays off!
… and sometimes swinging wide will land you on the other side of the highlight.
Random Land
Would you try the world’s first-and-only giga dive (whatever that means) roller coaster?
