Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Monday, July 14, 2025.
- Azealia Banks leaks ‘sexually harassing’ nude pics from UFC’s Conor McGregor, who warns rapper ‘all rats get caught’: Sending nudes to a known crazy person is ill-advised.
- Is UFC scripted? Questions arise after Nashville’s controversial underdog win mirrors pre-fight results leak: If I were a UFC script writer, I would not make the Heavyweight division so shallow and uninteresting. A new cast would be helpful!
- BJJ star Craig Jones to retire, ‘end’ B-Team after CJI 2; Gordon Ryan reacts: Jiu-jitsu drama is hopelessly dorky and embarrassing.
Insomnia
UFC CEO Dana White showing off everything from his trading cards to samurai swords to signed guitars.
While it would be irresponsible for me to include the leaked Conor McGregor pictures, it would be equally irresponsible of me not to laugh at them and the various reactions.
No me and Conor McGregor have been sending each other unsolicited nudes since 2016. LOL

People are hating in the comments (it’s the internet after all), but assuming she is indeed a big Dustin Poirier fan, I think it’s sweet!
Lost in the hubbub of Dustin Poirier vs. Max Holloway 3 is the fact that the rest of UFC 318 is MID!

Will Claudio Puelles guard pull his way into another loss?
I wouldn’t call myself a Shakur Stevenson fan generally, but this is the right mindset. Health lasts a whole lot longer than fan respect …
Joshua Van talks about how he got into MMA:
Slips, rips, and KO clips
It didn’t change anything, but Lang showed real hurt in getting up from the first liver shot.
Getting blasted by a counter left hook in response to your right hand and then thinking, “I’m going to bomb another right hand!” is very funny.
BKFC athletes do NOT get paid by the hour.
3 SECOND KO IN BKFC!!!
Esteban “Mohawk” Rodriguez just scored the second fastest KO ever at 3 seconds tonight over Julio Perez at BKFC 78 in Miami #BKFC78
