Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Monday, March 30, 2026.

  1. Maycee Barber, two others, transported to local hospital following ultra-violent UFC Seattle bloodbath: UFC Seattle featured a ton of truly nasty stoppages. I’m surprised Mansur Abdul-Malik wasn’t sent to the hospital also — he took some shots!
  2. Bernie Bro who ghosted Trump warns UFC fighters ‘leave politics alone’ or get left ‘dead in the water’: I don’t know that I would ever fully believe a Kevin Lee tall tale, but this does sound exactly like a grudge the UFC would hold.
  3. Highlights! Alexa Grasso flattens Maycee Barber in all-time great KO | UFC Seattle: Is this the greatest finish in women’s MMA history? It’s either this, Shevchenko vs. Eye, or Holm vs. Rousey in my opinion. Wild sequence!

Insomnia

Colby Covington seems to enjoy being an RAF wrestler much more than UFC fighter. As long as they paychecks are cashing, why not? Just get him out of the rankings!

This is one of the coolest cage wrestling counters I’ve ever seen, and Chris Wade was an underrated Lightweight at his peak.

There is no reason Johnny Walker — the man infamous for getting knocked out in whacky ways — should ever be sparring Francis Ngannou.

Fun-maxxing is a great term.

Jordan Leavitt is officially dropping to 145 pounds and will meet Joanderson Brito in his divisional debut. Tough fight to predict …

I feel like Valentina Shevchenko beefs with Khabib like this approximately every 18 months.

Canada strong!

Slips, rips, and KO clips

Cody Pfister, there’s a name I haven’t heard in quite a while.

Impa Kasanganay’s career has benefitted from jumping ship to PFL in a profound way.

Drew out offense with the half-hearted jab and then dropped a BOMB!

Random Land

Some hilarious ways to potentially lose a toe.

Sleep well Maniacs! More martial arts madness is always on the way.
