Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026.
- Check out these somewhat uncomfortable pics of UFC champ Tom Aspinall getting double eye surgery: I hope there’s a timeline released on when Aspinall could potentially return to action.
- UFC 326 is coming to CBS … just be prepared for the ‘Heidi Game’ cutoff: Airing part of a UFC main card is certainly a strange decision. Perhaps the goal is to pick up new subscribers because the fighters are just that good?
- Joaquin Buckley calls out welterweight division – ‘We all wasting time, ain’t nobody fighting’: Welterweight badly needs some fights booked, and I’m quite looking forward to Joaquin Buckley’s return.
Insomnia
If I was going to get into a street altercation with Mike Perry of all fighters, this is precisely how many people I would like to have backing me up.
Mark Vologdin — one half of the most exciting Contenders Series fight ever — has booked his UFC debut.
It’s rare to see a wrestler like Aljamain Sterling employing Diaz brother rhetoric to argue how he should’ve won a decision.
Jiri Prochazka is always off doing cool things, whether it’s exploring nature or training in unique venues.
Muhammad Mokaev’s wrestling skills are no joke!
I saw a comment describe Jakub Wiklacz as “spiritually Dutch” — a perfect description.
Slips, rips, and KO clips
Like Vitor Belfort before him, the losing fighter collapsed unconscious straight down almost into a squat. You don’t see that often with other strikes!
An unexpected turn of events.
For those curious, minimumweight athletes have to weigh in at 105 pounds.
Random Land
Klaebo’s VO2 max must be absolutely absurd.
Midnight Music: Funk, 1986
Sleep well Maniacs! More martial arts madness is always on the way.
