Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Let’s start the night off by taking a look back over the three biggest stories of Tuesday, June 9, 2026.
- Adrien Broner claims he almost swung on Jon Jones: ‘He was drunk, talking s—t’: Broner is so prevalent on social media lately it feels like he’s gearing up for a political campaign.
- Will UFC White House get canceled? Bookies set odds on wonky weather, federal lawsuit: Could you imagine the fallout if UFC were forced to pivot to another location somehow? The spectacle would almost be worth it.
- Sorry, but Alex Pereira not UFC ‘GOAT’ with White House win over Ciryl Gane — ‘It’s promoter talk’: Labeling new fighters the GOAT is seemingly the only promotional tool in the UFC playbook nowadays.
UFC CEO Dana White says the Sean Strickland is not banned from the UFC White House … maybe there’s still a chance we see him in Washington?
Dana White sets the record straight on Sean Strickland’s “ban” and other reporting of what’s not allowed at #UFCWhiteHouse.

I would genuinely rather buy the official UFC hot dog brander than wear this shirt.

I haven’t thought about JT Money in close to a decade. His season of TUF was very fun!
Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos TKO’s Jesse Taylor in the first 90 seconds. The usual JT Money quit job. Also he showed up with cuts all over his head for some strange reason. pic.twitter.com/35tlw8inrs

… I don’t think the “eight” were very well organized. Two of them did not seem to understand the task at hand.
