Mike Perry’s job on the line at BKFC 82: ‘If you don’t perform, you’re gone!‘
Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Thursday, Oct. 2, 2025.
- Conor McGregor’s UFC White House return is a ‘done deal, signed, delivered’: I will believe Conor McGregor is back when I can personally see him inside the Octagon from the TV in my living room.
- Green thumb? Dana White reveals UFC to spend nearly $ 1 million to replace White House South Lawn grass: UFC is so much more interesting when the promotion does something different and kicks it up a notch. I have high hopes that the UFC White House event will be great fun!
- UFC 320’s best betting props, parlays and picks | Ankalaev vs. Pereira 2: My favorite underdog bet on UFC 320 is Cory Sandhagen at 3-1. What’s yours?
Insomnia
Conor McGregor kind of hating the biggest star of a company he’s invested in will never not be funny. If only McGregor vs. Mike Perry could actually happen some day …
Further evidence that 100% of MMA fighters are real estate agents in training. On a serious note: I would absolutely trust Sage Northcutt to help buy my property. He’s genuinely as good-hearted as they come!
UFC Qatar is absolutely stacked with quality fights.
Per usual, I can find the logic in Jiri Prochazka’s unusual line of thinking. The brain may not be a muscle, but it can be trained!
I’m going to offer a conflicting opinion: a few small and fairly basic wrestling adjustments could have seen Dricus Du Plessis create many more scrambles and potentially find better success against Khamzat.
Tim Elliott potentially incriminating himself here for the good of the podcast.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Ducking into one of the most powerful strikes in the sport — ouch!
Based on all available evidence, defense is not allowed in South Korean MMA.
About as emphatic of a jab knockdown as I’ve ever seen.
Random Land
The idea of doing absurd feats of strength at some random 24 Hour Fitness or equivalent chain gym is always quite funny to me.
