Khabib Nurmagomedov thought about retiring in 2014 only for his father to convince him otherwise. Khabib’s comments were made after he recalled his injury after beating Rafael dos Anjos. Nurmagomedov broke his leg, keeping him out from action from 2014-16. During this period, Khabib was not the UFC Lightweight Champion. He questioned his ability to bounce back from the injury. However, his father left the decision to Khabib, stating he would find a champion with or without him. That motivated Khabib to continue.

Nick Diaz is taking note of all the people talking trash about him as he struggles to return to the cage after another long layoff. Diaz has been in a state of semi-retirement since a 2015 No Contest against Anderson Silva — originally a decision loss for Nick but overturned after “The Spider” tested positive for steroids. He popped back up in September 2021 to fight Robbie Lawler in a bout that had to be moved up to middleweight at the last minute. Diaz would sit down and quit in the third round as the fight turned against him, and reports after had him suffering from bulging discs in his neck.

Conor McGregor’s future could become clearer soon, according to Dana White. The UFC CEO hosted an Instagram Live chat on Wednesday evening, in which he teased an update on the status of “The Notorious.” McGregor has been out of action since breaking his leg in a July 2021 loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, and after a tumultuous summer that saw a scheduled bout with Michael Chandler fall through, there has been no news on when McGregor’s long-awaited comeback will be rescheduled.

Don’t hop the fence, UFC fighters … or Nevada will come for a portion of your paycheck.
Mayra Bueno Silva’s decision to scale the fence and speak to Dana White immediately following the stoppage in her UFC 303 bout has cost her.
On Thursday, the Nevada Athletic Commission fined Bueno Silva $2,500, plus $157.04 in prosecution fees, for leaping the cage after her June 29 bout at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas ended in a doctor’s stoppage.
The commission said Bueno Silva “against previous instruction exited the octagon by jumping over the fence.”
The fine is the second time this year a UFC contender has received such a fine. Diego Lopes was hit with the same $2,500 punishment after he jumped the cage at UFC 300 in April.

Dana White is once again mixing it up with the press over Jon Jones’ status as the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter and greatest of all time (G.O.A.T.). This is becoming a weekly affair with UFC’s CEO, who is taking fire from fighters, fans and mixed martial arts (MMA) media over his refusal to grant interim Heavyweight champion, Tom Aspinall, the next title shot against Jones, who hasn’t defended the undisputed belt since winning it in March 2023.

Sean O'Malley made sure to leave no doubt when it came to avenging his only professional MMA loss. Back in March at UFC 299, O’Malley fought Marlon Vera in a rematch that stemmed from a 2020 meet that left O’Malley with a first-round TKO loss on his record. In a flawless performance, O’Malley badly beat Vera over the course of 25 minutes to avenge his defeat and retain his UFC bantamweight title.

Dana White plans to collaborate further with the Saudis to create more cards. UFC Saudi took place on June 22, the first ever card in the Kingdom, which featured the headline event between Robert Whittaker and Ikram Aliskerov. The card faced some hurdles as Khamzat Chimaev pulled out of the main event after being hospitalized. Aliskerov stepped in, but Whittaker secured a first-round knockout to set up a fight with Chimaev at UFC 308. The Saudis are also sponsoring UFC 306, which will feature the headline event between Sean O’Malley and Merab Dvalishvili.

Francis Ngannou and UFC CEO Dana White played the blame game over the past week as they disagreed about why a fight between Ngannou and Jon Jones never happened. White claimed it was Ngannou who prevented the matchup from taking place, while the former UFC heavyweight champion stated that the promotion told him it was Jones who didn’t want the fight when Ngannou was attempting to negotiate a new deal to stay with the organization. In the end, the two sides never came to an agreement, and now Ngannou is preparing for his PFL debut in October against Renan Ferreira, while Jones is expected to fight Stipe Miocic on Nov. 16 at UFC 309.

Undefeated middleweight Torrez Finney will have a third chance at entering the UFC through Dana White’s Contender Series.
Finney (9-0) was recently snubbed on a UFC contract offering from promotion CEO Dana White at DWCS 68 on Aug. 20. After winning a unanimous decision over Cam Rowston, White was not impressed with Finney’s second performance on the show, stating, “You get absolutely decimated in the UFC with the performance you put on tonight.”
In addition, White criticized Finney for only taking one fight since his first DWCS appearance last October, where he submitted Yuri Panferov in the second round.
However, all hope is...
