UFC 300, ‘F*ck Off Floyd,’ And More: Midnight Roundup Unveils Explosive Highlights

The latest Midnight Roundup brought UFC pulse to deafening levels with one spectacular update after another: the announcement of fights for UFC 30, a warning directed at Floyd “Money” Mayweather. 24 hours ago, we plunged right into the centre of all action as we looked at some standout events that left the MMA world agape.

UFC 300: New Updates and Fan Discontent

With the impending announcement of a high-stakes clash, expectations ahead of UFC 300 reached fever pitch. It has been stated by Ag.fight that Deiveson Figueiredo, who had just emerged victorious in a bantamweight debut match against Rob Font, is scheduled to fight with Cody Garbrandt.

There is a pervasive sense of “why watch” among MMA-minded brethren. Will the Figueiredo vs. Garbrandt showdown be the spark needed to rekindle fan excitement?

‘F*ck Off Floyd’: The Heated Message of Oscar De La Hoya

The drama of the octagon spilled over into social media as promoter and boxing hall-of-famous figurehead Oscar De La Hoya had a potent message for boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. The catalyst? Friendship between Mayweather and Ryan Garcia.

Ngannou’s stance sparks an age-old debate: Is MMA as financially rewarding a pastime as boxing? Though he makes a good argument, the fact of the matter is that only certain boxers who mostly begin as well-known will earn a lot of money. On the contrary, UFC provides constant payments; however, it is unable to provide such peaks in financial terms as are observed in the boxing world.
