The second meeting between Alex Pereira and Magomed Ankalaev dispelled the illusion of a “chess-like” rematch. Instead of intricate maneuvering—lightning-fast dominance and a knockout in under a minute and a half. The Brazilian returned to his predatory, kickboxing nature, while Magomed found himsel...
31-year-old Khamzat "Borz" Chimaev sealed the biggest trophy of his career: at UFC 319 he defeated South African Dricus du Plessis and captured the middleweight title (up to 84 kg). The outcome — a unanimous decision from the judges and his 15th professional win with no losses. In honor of the trium...
At training camps before the biggest fight, the talk is usually about the game plan, the weight cut and tactics. But in Islam Makhachev's camp there was also room for philosophical discussions.

Sometimes fighters ahead of a big fight “shut down” and slip into a routine: gym — sleep — diet — silence. Charles Oliveira went a different way: he went and built himself a Pokédex right on his leg — a full Pokémon sleeve/lineup on his shin. Judging by the videos and photos, it’s not just one s...
