Do you think there's a UFC style of MMA compared to a ONE or Rizin style?

I don't just mean the rule set, more like how Eastern European boxers have a slightly different fighter style compared to US boxers.

Sorta, yeah. Just because guys fighting in ONE or in RIZIN come from gyms and even sometimes martial arts that just are not as popular/successful in the US, where the UFC gets the majority of their talent. How many UFC fighters are coming out of the Philippines or Singapore for example? How many guys in RIZIN are just straight up former high level Muay Thai fighters? Or are former Jkick fighters in RIZIN? How many of those guys tend to get to the UFC? There's also the fact RIZIN is in a ring vs a cage, which creates different incentives when it comes to wrestling.

I think MMA might be too broad to have a unified style like how boxing does. Even promotion by promotion. Just cause everyone approaches the sport of MMA so differently. Like Andre Fili trains out of the same gym as Urijah Faber and Song Yadong and I wouldn't compare his style of striking to what either of them do. The thing MMA does have is meta. For example, for the longest time MMA was centered around locking your opponent out of a fight by neutralizing them. Some people were doing it with LnP. Others were doing it by scaring them off of striking exchanges and keeping fights at a low pace (think Silva, Aldo, Woodley, etc.). Then it was all about doing a lot of stuff and volume (Max Holloway, etc). Even that may be too broad.

I think the thing that also really separates the UFC is volume. More global fighters than any other promotion but also the lightweight division alone might have more fighters in it than RIZIN and ONE have on their entire roster. Guys tend to be way bigger (how many 155lbers in ONE/RIZIN are the size of Dan Hooker, Jailin Turner, etc). And the level of athleticism is just generally WAAAAAAAY higher overall. Which means guys are able to do more.

We also have to consider that each division kind of has its own meta. What works at heavyweight and light heavyweight just doesn't cut it at flyweight or bantamweight.

I think it'd probably be more fruitful to look at MMA regionally. See what styles of fighters are coming out of what parts of the world, where they are training, what backgrounds did they start in, and which promotions they are having success in which promotions. Like, what are the stylistic similarities between those fighters?

Does Tennis star Daniel break his wrist also? How's he getting on? Is Max devoted boyfriend we all know him to be? Love the au sm!💖

OMG Pixie! Thank you for this ask! I'm so happy you enjoy it! 💗💗💗 Originally I had no intention of Danny getting injured, there was like a vague outline of what I wanted to happen for the US Open. Then I read this lovely ask and my brain pressed delete and then I furiously wrote this. It is not edited lmao, I hope it makes sense. I'll put it under the cut, we got a little angsty too.

Part 1 | Part 16 | Part 18

Part 17

It was in the second round of the US Open when it happened. In Arthur Ashe Stadium at prime time. A freak accident they called it. 

It was the second set, Daniel was returning a volley and he…tripped. The ball boys had accounted for all the stray balls except one that had fallen from one of their hands. They couldn’t stop play in time and instead of allowing himself to fall into the teen trying to retrieve the ball; Daniel pivoted with the grace of a UFC fighter and landed on his side. Heavily.

He had thrown his arm out reflexively to catch himself but his momentum was too much and long story short he was sat in the hospital in a cast. 

“At least it’s a clean break.” Blake had said, trying to find any silver lining. Daniel stared morosely ahead as the news (which he requested be kept on) kept replaying the moment of the fall and him immediately clutching his arm to his chest in pain. They were praising his quick thinking and agility for not injuring the poor boy with a montage of him being led from centre court to a standing ovation overlayed.

His phone was going off uncontrollably, but he was ignoring it. Max had called Blake immediately after it happened; he saw it live watching from Italy. They’d had no information for him then, and Daniel wasn’t sure if Blake had been keeping him updated. He hoped he was.

Daniel stared ahead for an indeterminate amount of time. He was in shock. How could it have gone so so badly in so little time. He was the fucking world number one; something he’d dreamt about for ages. He was on his way to win the final grand slam of the season and now…

The cast felt heavy against his chest where it rested. He couldn’t breathe under the metaphorical weight of it. 

“I want Max.” Daniel croaked out, clearing his throat. He hadn’t spoken since checking into the hospital, letting Blake and Micheal do all the work. 

“He’s sending his plane to take us to Spain. Red Bull are getting us a consultation with a Dr Mir to— apparently he’s the best at this sort of injury.” Blake offered instead, still texting feverishly.

“At least this was the final of the year. I mean outside of the invitational…” Michael trailed off.

“Where’s my phone? I— Max.” Daniel motioned with his good hand jerkily, hissing when he jostled his cast. Blake caved and handed him the device which he took to immediately facetime his boyfriend. 

Max answered before the first ring even finished. His worried eyes filled the screen and Daniel offered a small smile in spite of himself.

“Hey.” Daniel whispered, because he all of a sudden felt overwhelmed. 

“Danny! How— how are you feeling?” Max seemed like he just jolted himself into stillness. Maybe he had been pacing.

“Can I see you?” Daniel bypassed answering, because he wasn’t feeling up to trying to put words to the tumult inside him. It wasn’t all good all ways, not by a long shot. 

Max hesitated, and Daniel felt bad immediately. It was a stupid question, Max had just arrived in Milan, this was a full race weekend. There would be no opportunity.

“Sorry— fuck. That was a dumb question.” Daniel mumbled. 

“Vicky says that Dr Mir is like on call for Moto GP guys— so he knows what he’s doing. Hopefully you can get surgery this week a–and  then I can meet you in Monaco after the race, maybe? You can stay at my place— I have a week before singapore— I can help take care of you?” He said it all in a rush, as if thinking if he gave Daniel a moment to consider or answer he’d have declined. 

This was new for them, they were still new. They didn’t really know how the other were when they were losing or hurt. 

“Ok– yeah.” Daniel replied because, of course. He wanted to see Max, needed to be held by his boyfriend right now. And if everyone trusted this Dr Mir, then he would too. He could probably ask Fabio about him, or something. 

Everything was a rush and a blur after that. Daniel slept most of the flight to Barcelona, he was in surgery within two days and on some amazing painkillers. He didn’t much remember getting to Moncao or arriving at Max’s but he’d woken out of sleep enough with a cat randomly on or by him that he knew he was there.

Max arrived Sunday night, his hair still smelled like champaign. It was the best smell Daniel smelt when Max leaned over to kiss him while he was propped up on the couch. It was clear that Blake gave him all the information over the phone because he didn’t ask anything, just made himself comfortable on Daniel’s good side and cuddled him closer, tracing the lines of the cast lightly with his finger. Outlining the rose he knew to be there.

Daniel leaned into him easily. It was a shit situation, but Max was here.

UFC Fights Ireland: Dana White Finally Breaks Silence on December Rumors

UFC may return to Ireland after an eight-year absence, but the news has not been confirmed. Since 2015, the Republic of Ireland is yet to host a UFC fight. This has left MMA fans in "The Emerald Isle" begging for more live action.

The picture is still far from certain. Jamie Mullarkey’s management leaked the information on social media when they said that Mullarkey was fighting in Ireland next.

During an interview, UFC's CEO Dana White finally commented on the rumored Ireland event. Dana White answered, "There are also rumblings of Ireland taking place in December. Is this true?"

White responded with frustration and humor. "Now we are in fu**ing Ireland. I don't know if we will be going to Ireland. You blew this, kid. You blew that." Is there anyone else with a stupid question?

White's reaction reflects his cautious attitude towards a possible return to Ireland. Although rumors are circulating, there has been no confirmation. White seems to be avoiding revealing any details for the time being.

UFC Ireland fans eagerly anticipate news about a possible homecoming of the promotion. The status of UFC 296 remains unknown until an official announcement has been made.

Unconfirmed fighters for UFC Ireland's upcoming event

As the UFC Ireland event draws near, rumors are circulating in the UFC Community. However, no official match card has yet been announced. Latest speculation focuses on possible matchups which could make the December event a must-watch showdown for fight fans.

In a recent press conference, UFC president Dana White teased a potential showdown between Jiri Pereira and Alex Prochazka, a prospect which has attracted a lot of attention. They could end up facing each other at the event in December.

A potential confrontation between Conor McGregor, Michael Chandler and others is another intriguing rumor. The rivalry between the two intensified when they were competing coaches in The Ultimate Fighter Season 31. McGregor then fueled rumors when he tweeted about a fight in December and shared a UFC 296 promotional graphic. Later, however, it became clear that the graphic wasn't an official announcement. According to UFC's CEO, McGregor is also unsure about his return this year.

Giga Chakadze then publicly confronted Yair Rod at the UFC Singapore Press Conference, expressing a desire to get a place on the UFC 296 Card so that they could make an appearance at UFC Ireland. Sean O'Malley's revelation that he had been in discussions with Conor McGregor regarding the headline and co-headline bouts for UFC 296 added to the excitement. The clash can therefore also happen.

These rumors are sure to generate buzz but it is important to remember that the official match card has not yet been released. Fans will therefore have to wait until the official confirmation.

Nyamjargal Tumendemberel vs Peter Danesoe - Road to UFC: Singapore Episode 1

With the UFC returning to China this week, we have a new wave of Asian fighters set to make their debut. Some of them may be familiar to those that watch Road to UFC or keep an eye on the scene, but for those that don't I'll try to hit the interesting ones.

First up, we have Nyamjargal Tumendemberel (8-0). He's a Mongolian flyweight and a specialist in judo. I'm not super familiar with his game or his background, but he's a big puncher with some really interesting solutions to grappling. Look at the smooth kick/sweep he uses to get Danesoe down here. Looking forward to seeing more of him. He's set to make his UFC debut against Carlos Hernandez (9-4) this Saturday (Nov. 23) at UFC Fight Night: Yan vs. Figueiredo in Macau.

UFC 296 Fight Card: Here is Everything we know about the Dec 16th PPV Scheduled

UFC 296 pinion wheels up to be the fourteenth compensation per-view occasion of the year 2023. Planned for December 16, 2023, at the famous T-Versatile Field in Las Vegas.

UFC President Dana White dropped a clue during a public interview on August 29, 2023. White proposed that a conflict between Jiri Prochazka and Alex Pereira may be on the cards for this December confrontation.

Reports have been whirling for some time about a possible fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler. Their contention became the overwhelming focus when they filled in as restricting mentors on A definitive Contender Season 31.

McGregor filled the hypothesis in August by tweeting about a December battle, in any event, sharing a realistic advancing his title appearance at UFC 296. Nonetheless, it was subsequently affirmed that the realistic was just a hallucination.

Adding to the interest, Sean O'Malley let the cat out of the bag on his discussion with Conor McGregor about the two warriors partaking in the fundamental and co-headliners at UFC 296.

In a surprising turn, Giga Chikadze lighted sparkles at the UFC Singapore public interview by moving Yair Rodriguez to a standoff at UFC 296.

Will Conor McGregor get back into the game at UFC 296?

It's been a long while since Conor McGregor graced the UFC Octagon, with his last appearance tracing all the way back to a pivotal physical issue in July 2021. However, recently, a promise of something better arose when it was reported that McGregor would make his UFC return, this time as a mentor on the most recent time of A definitive Warrior (TUF), where he would clash with, as a matter of fact, Michael Chandler once the season closed.

Shockingly, McGregor neglected to enter the USADA testing pool, an essential prerequisite for his return this year. Regardless of this, bits of gossip endure about a possible rebound in December for the skilled Irish contender. McGregor has previously started his instructional course, which incorporates meetings with Bellator warrior Ciaran Clarke. Clarke as of late imparted his contemplations to Mirror Quarreling over his experience preparing with McGregor:

"Without a slight trace of uncertainty he's sharp. His development and everything and his psyche for the game, he's so sharp mentally."As far as December? He will be truly sharp and truly prepared for that battle. He's preparing for something coming up, I don't know since it's all tales and there's no genuine agreements marked except for I realize that he couldn't want anything more than to be battling in December, we don't have any idea."
