Nate Diaz may well have proved the extent of his newfound understanding of the fight-business with his callout of Jorge Masvidal at UFC 241. Taking to the mic directly after beating Anthony Pettis over three-rounds, he made the callout that would perhaps ignite fan interest more than any matchup out there with the exception of a trilogy bout with Conor …

Kyoji Horiguchi has suffered a stunning loss to the rising talent Kai Adakura in their bantamweight clash at RIZIN 18 over the weekend. In a weekend that saw the return of Nate Diaz and an old UFC heavyweight champion return to his perch atop the division, perhaps the biggest shock of all came in Japan where one of the world’s …

Paulo Costa wasn’t exactly thrilled to hear that interim-champion Israel Adesanya had insinuated that he had the small arms of a tyrannosaurus rex. Yes, you read that correctly. In a tweet posted during Saturday’s superb middleweight title-eliminator, The Last Stylebender seemed to suggest that not only was Borrachinha using banned substances, but also that his arms resembled those of the …

Joe Rogan has explained his decision to interview UFC 241 headliner Daniel Cormier just after his fourth-round TKO defeat at the hands of Stipe Miocic. At UFC 214, when Cormier was finished for the first time by his great rival Jon Jones, many had pointed fingers at Rogan for speaking to the clearly concussed and disoriented DC – a move …

Daniel Cormier has reflected on his fourth-round TKO defeat at the hands of Stipe Miocic and where exactly it leaves him at this late point in his career. And while he didn’t exactly say it outright, there could be a chance that we never see DC lace up gloves again. Citing a need for deliberation alongside his love ones, Cormier …

Dana White has backtracked on an infamous comment he made about UFC 241 star Nate Diaz a few years ago after his triumphant return last night. For quite some time, Nate lived in the shadow of his brother – the former Strikeforce welterweight champion Nick Diaz, a man who shared the octagon with superstars such as Georges St-Pierre and Anderson …

Nate Diaz took to the microphone after his impressive UFC 241 victory over Anthony Pettis to call out his fellow welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal. If ring-rust is real, no-one told Diaz that ahead of his first UFC outing in three years last night. Although he started slow, in his own patented fashion he gradually began to pick up the pace …

Paulo Costa was handed a somewhat controversial unanimous decision victory over the former two-time middleweight title challenger Yoel Romero. Indeed it was controversial but make no mistake, this was one of the year’s most entertaining battles and when all was said and done inside the cage, neither man truly left as a loser. With that being said, it did appear …

Nate Diaz did not seem to be showing the signs of ring-rust in the slightest as he returned to the UFC octagon with a hugely impressive win over Anthony Pettis in the UFC 241 co-main event. Pace, pressure, and fluidity on both the feet and the mat in equal measure, Nate’s return seemed to very much show a fighter reborn, …

Stipe Miocic was able to overcome some adversity to TKO heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier in the fourth round in the UFC 241 main-event. No matter which way the belt went in the end, it was pretty clear from the get-go that we were tuning in to see a clash between two of the greatest heavyweights in the sport’s history. And …

Daniel Cormier will attempt to make the second defense of his UFC heavyweight title when he steps in to face Stipe Miocic in the UFC 241 main-event. In many ways, it’s a fight that completely deserves to be run back once again. Sure, a first-round knockout was a pretty decisive way for Cormier to steal away Stipe’s title’s back in …

Jorge Masvidal has extended an invitation to Nate Diaz, challenging him to go to war inside the octagon once he settles his beef with Anthony Pettis tonight. Masvidal is well and truly on top of the world. Fresh off of his stunning five-second knockout of Ben Askren at UFC 239, Gamebred has been linked to fights with everyone from Conor …

Anthony Pettis will welcome Nate Diaz back to the UFC octagon in the UFC 241 co-main event in a fight that could well single out a top welterweight contender. And it’s almost odd to see this pair of career lightweights plying their trade in the upper echelons of the welterweight division but as unlikely as it may seem, a future …

José Aldo has left the MMA world shocked to a certain extent after revealing his wish to eventually make the drop to the bantamweight division. Aldo is, of course, at something of a crossroads in his career following his decision loss to Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 237. With an 0-2 record against the champ, it was thought that he would …

UFC 241’s ceremonial weigh-ins are about to get underway, an event that will feature the final faceoffs between some of the stars of Saturday’s card. And what a night of fights it promises to be. A truly phenomenal mix of bonafide superstars, fan-favourites, and prospects that will likely serve up several star-making moments one way or another. Most eyes will …

The two fights that lie ahead of the heavyweight champion will stand as the difference between a status shared amongst him and several other legends and a place in history that nobody else can touch. January 20, 2018, was the day that Daniel Cormier truly proved without a shred of a doubt what type of man he is. UFC 220’s …

Khabib Nurmagomedov has reacted to the recent video that shows his rival Conor McGregor attacking a patron in an Irish bar last April. The video, which recently surfaced, shows McGregor allegedly attacking a patron of an Irish bar who refused to drink his signature whiskey, Proper 12, despite being urged by its owner on several occasions. After several sharp rejections, …
