After many years together, it seems that DAZN money has come between Gennady Golovkin and Abel Sanchez.
It is often said that the more money you have, the more problems that come with it. In the case of Gennady Golovkin, the almighty buck has apparently come between him and longtime trainer Abel Sanchez.
On social media earlier this afternoon, Golovkin announced that he and Sanchez had gone their separate ways. He painted it as a professional parting of company and was complimentary of...

The main event is a five-round middleweight bout between top contender Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza and short notice replacement Jack Hermansson, himself a rising contender.

Marlon Moraes is getting a shot at the vacant UFC bantamweight title, this after T.J. Dillashaw relinquished his belt due to a two-year suspension from USADA. Dillashaw had tested positive for the banned substance EPO in the lead up to his fight with Flyweight champ Henry Cejudo.
Although some fighters claim that they always knew TJ Dillashaw was using drugs, Marlon Moraes was still still shocked and disappointed by the news.
“We are all disappointed,” Moraes said when speaking...
UFC Russia was pretty irrelevant rankings-wise.
UFC Russia was one of the most irrelevant shows the promotion has put on in a while. Over half of the fights finished before the final horn, but there weren’t a lot of ranked fighters competing and due to the early start time, there weren’t a lot of people watching either.
Thus, there are not a lot of changes in the UFC rankings this week. Shamil Abdurakhimov and Roxy Modafferi are the only people to move up multiple spots, and even an...
After getting a first-round finish of Karl Roberson at UFC on ESPN+ 1, Glover Teixeira put in a request: He wanted to fight fellow countryman Mauricio Rua, hopefully in Brazil.
Considering Teixeira (28-7 MMA, 11-5 UFC) is now set to meet Ion Cutelaba (14-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) in Ft. Lauderdale on the main card of this Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ 8, it’s obvious he didn’t get any part of his wish. Teixeira, however, isn’t exactly losing sleep over the circumstances.
“They called me, and I’m...
“I think I’m a nightmare matchup for him if you look on paper, just based on the paper with my wrestling and my jiu-jitsu.”
Everyone wants a piece of newly-crowned UFC interim middleweight champion Israel Adesanya.
The latest fighter to call out ‘The Last Stylebender’ is former UFC 185-pound kingpin Chris Weidman, who thinks he would be a ‘nightmare’ matchup for the New Zealander.
Speaking to ESPN’s Ariel Helwani in a recent interview Weidman, who used to think Adesanya was...
Check out these photos of Carla Esparza through the years
PLANTATION, Fla. – Former UFC champion Carla Esparza has experienced a lot in her decorated career. For Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ 8 matchup with Virna Jandiroba, though, she walks on unfamiliar ground in more ways than one.
The most glaring of Esparza’s new dealings ahead of her strawweight encounter with Jandiroba (14-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) is the fact she enters the matchup on a two-fight skid for the first time in her professional...
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) isn’t the only show streaming live Saturday night as Bellator 220 will go head to head with the MMA juggernaut.
While Bellator has a habit of filling up the undercard with local fighters to help move ticket sales, that often times affects the quality of fights the fans get. There’s no denying the strength of the five-fight main card that will stream live via DAZN. However, the prelims fall a bit short of what one would expect from a card of...
Ten months from his last outing, Northern Irish fan favorite Alan Philpott is adamant that he will make a lasting impression when he debuts under the ONE Championship banner at Thursday’s Warriors Series.
After being left on the sidelines during ACB’s hiatus in 2018, Philpott tried unsuccessfully to join the Bellator ranks. “The Apprentice” was also on the verge of getting a short notice call-up to face Kai Kara-France at UFC Adelaide before the promotion opted for Elias Garcia...

Dhiego Lima realized the greatest moment of his UFC career the last time he stepped inside the octagon. He said he’s hoping to build off that at UFC on ESPN+ 8.
After going on a three-fight losing skid in pro competition, Lima (13-7 MMA, 2-5 UFC) made good on what may have been his final chance at UFC glory in December. He scored a brutal 97-second knockout of Chad Laprise at UFC 231, giving him his first finish in seven bouts with the organization.
Lima always has felt like his UFC record...

The Nevada Athletic Commission on Wednesday voted to fine UFC bantamweight Pedro Munhoz $2,500 plus attorney’s fees for his post-fight celebration at UFC 235.
Munhoz’s total bill comes to $2,827.06 after $327.06 in fees. The fines need to be paid before his temporary suspension is lifted, an NAC representative told MMA Junkie following an initial report from MMA Fighting.
Munhoz, 32, was temporarily suspended after he hopped on the octagon fence while celebrating a first-round TKO of...
It’s been a while since Nicco Montano has been inside the Octagon, but she is hoping that changes in the coming months.
“That means nothing saying ‘I’m going to maul him’. You’re supposed to. I expect the same from him when I say I’m going to hurt him, I expect the same that he’s going to try to hurt me and take me out. That’s what fighting is.”
Dustin Poirier knows a thing or two about maulings, having battered the likes of Eddie Alvarez, Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway enroute to winning the interim UFC lightweight title at UFC 236.
That’s why, when reigning lightweight king Khabib...
Former UFC women’s flyweight champion Nicco Montano has spoken out for the first time since accepting a six-month suspension for a banned substance in her system.
Montano, 30, thanked her friends, family and promoter while noting the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency was “unable to locate the source of my contamination.”
“I will continue to remain diligent in my responsibilities to USADA and the UFC,” she wrote Wednesday on her Instagram page.
View this post on...After it was revealed Tuesday that Nicco Montano has been on the shelf due to a suspension from the United States Anti-Doping Agency, the former UFC flyweight champion provided her own update on the situation.
It was announced by the USADA that Montano (4-2) is currently serving a six-month suspension dating back to Nov. 15, 2018, as a result of the 30-year-old testing positive for ostarine in an out-of-competition sample last October. She will be eligible to compete again on May 15 and she...
Johnny Walker says it would be a dream come true to fight Jon Jones for the UFC light heavyweight title.
Streaking UFC light heavyweight Johnny Walker is hoping Jon Jones retains his title against Thiago Santos, because it would be a dream to one day challenge the pound-for-pound great for the belt.
Walker, 27, is on a nine-fight win streak and has finished his last three UFC bouts in the first round. His knockout win over Justin Ledet at UFC Fight Night 144 came at just 15 seconds of the...
