8+ min ago (653+ words) Home " MMA News " Zhang Peimian " Zhang Peimian expects three-round war with Thongpoon at ONE Friday" Two straight losses put Zhang Peimian's career trajectory in jeopardy. The Chinese phenom refuses to let controversy define his path forward. The 22-year-old former ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title challenger faces charismatic Thai striker Thongpoon PK Saenchai in strawweight kickboxing at ONE Friday Fights 137 on December 19, inside Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. The bout represents a crucial opportunity to reclaim his status among the division's most dangerous contenders. Zhang's recent struggles stand in stark contrast to the meteoric rise that made him one of China's most exciting fighters. After winning the Road to ONE: China tournament in 2021, the young striker reeled off two victories before challenging Jonathan Di Bella for the vacant title. His most recent setback came via split decision against European Kickboxing Champion…...

I was injured before, but not in this fight," Merab Dvalishvili shared with his fans in a Hawaii vlog on his Instagram as he vied for a trilogy with Petr Yan. Apparently, his last run at UFC 323 is still a heavy topic for "The Machine.' However, a bold, unsurgical method of removing stitches has surfaced on the internet, taking the fandom into a frenzy. It's not news that Dvalishvili's face was seriously disfigured and brutally cut in his last fight with Yan, who used his heavy blows to shut down "The Machine's wrestling. Now, more than a week later, Dvalishvili was ready to peel out the stitches on his own, without any medical aid. In a recent Hawaii vlog, Dvalishvili detailed his willingness to avenge Yan, as he used…...

During a video address posted to his personal YouTube channel ahead of his interim 155-pound title bout against Paddy Pimblett at UFC 324 in January 2026, with an excerpt of the video footage posted to X account @RedCorner_MMA, Gaethje said, As the former BMF champion outlines aspects of this aim to become a multi-time interim UFC champion while also keeping the flame alive for what is ultimately his goal of procuring the lineal strap afterward, Justin Gaethje continued, "I'm planning on fighting perfect and when I fight perfect,…...

35+ min ago (673+ words) Dec 15, 2025 | 11:51 PM EST Tyson Fury didn't announce a comeback. He did not suggest a fight. He just shared a short workout footage from Florida, casually labeled and framed, as if it were just another day at the gym. Casual punches, some MMA training, sweat'normal stuff. Except, it wasn't. Because standing quietly in the corner of the ring, barely acknowledging the camera, was Nick Diaz. And that single background detail was enough to rekindle interest in an MMA story that many thought had died. At first sight, it seemed reassuring. A familiar face, a legendary character, is back in the gym. However, reassurance did not last long. The clip provided no answers. Instead, it raised questions about timing, location, and whether or not this was happening right now at all. Still, many fans fell for it. The sight of Diaz in…...

So, he's better than, like, what you would think," Stevenson insisted. Jake's sheer dedication left him both surprised and impressed. He added, "He's just not a bad fighter. Like his instincts are to not get beat up or not get hit." Yet Shakur Stevenson would rather wager his money on AJ than Paul. Yet he challenges the widespread belief that the former unified heavyweight champion would wrap things up inside two rounds. "I know he (Jake) survives the first round," he concluded. Stevenson may be speaking from personal experience, but the prevailing sentiment still blows in the opposite direction. Still, it is difficult to deny. Despite stepping in as a heavy underdog, Jake Paul has effected…...

1+ hour, 28+ min ago (587+ words) Dec 15, 2025 | 10:57 PM EST Dana White doesn't usually blur his lines. When a relationship ends in the UFC, it is loud and clear. Francis Ngannou's exit initially followed a predictable pattern. Contract dispute, and then frustration among the general public. A champion walked away as the promotion continued without him. Despite its chaotic nature, the plot seemed settled until a few weeks ago. However, the conflict has reappeared unexpectedly, but not through Ngannou. Instead, it came from Dana White himself when his account of a previous altercation began to change. Ariel Helwani stepped in, not to accuse, but to listen intently. And when the words were replayed side by side, the difference became hard to ignore. Ariel Helwani did not exaggerate it. He just stated what many people were already sensing. "Does the story change a little bit?" Helwani asked on…...

The Wildcats started their season placing third at a tournament in Ashland last weekend. They took a big leap this past weekend by placing first in the tradition-rich Riverside Rumble. "I'm pretty happy," longtime coach Dwight Fritz said. "It's been so much fun. I hope we chase this (momentum) through. It was really neat to passing people in the stands and hearing them say, "Man, did you see those Mayfield wrestlers?' Complete strangers I just overheard. That was pretty cool." The Wildcats crowned four champions at the Riverside Rumble " sophomore Carter Slife at 106 pounds, junior Mason Linn at 113, sophomore Asilbek Anvarov at 120 and sophomore Dominic Moses at 157. The quartet of champs helped Mayfield run away with the team standings…...
