The going rumor is the UFC/Venom will end early (after #ufc334) with Nike/Fanatics coming in. #ufc #mma #nike #fanatics UFC to the rescue of another hurting brand.

Rising bantamweight MMA prospect Elijah Smith was on Ariel Helwani’s show and has revealed that he's now a free agent, (which is WILD AF) and that the UFC are yet to offer him a new contract. (Another WILD AF bc of his performance at #ufcvegas124) He's said that apparently the UFC aren't renewing contracts outside the top 15, which is absolutely absurd. That definitely positions another promotion to grow if it's true. Potentially it would explain some recent cuts. We inquired about the above to some contacts and the responses we got were: Idk but it’s a shit show They aren’t signing anyone Got a lot of pissed off fighters You can’t get into the UFC anymore unless it’s from DWCS or a last second replacement. Managers and fighters saying they are all hearing is silence. Managers don’t know the status of their fighters and frustration. The UFC has a flawed system. No organization. To gain entry into the UFC it’s just what manager they talked to last and what need they have in that moment. There’s no structure. Look at every other sport.. there’s organization and a criteria. An evaluation, interview, draft process to make it to pros and more revenue share. #ufc #mma #ufc324

Mackenzie Dern vs Denise Gomes in the works for March title fight. First reported: @laertevianamma HT:ConnectedMMA @brycep965421 This bout is interesting as this will be most likely at #ufc338. Hearing rumors UFC 338 may not be in Vegas and the first Vegas date will be #ufc339 in April potentially headlined by Ilia vs Paddy. But if UFC 338 is in Vegas the later rumor is more interesting. #ufc #mma

TMZ caught up with UFC CEO to chat about his lack of buzz and news over the weekend🤣🤣🤣🤣 @realdonaldtrump trolling everyone lol. He gave all the people who lost their minds about Freedom 250 at the @whitehouse this summer something else to lose their minds about when the president sent that Truth Social post out offering the United States press secretary job to Dana! 🤣🤣 Here is Dana’s response. #ufc #mma #ufc334 🎥: TMZ DC

*BREAKING AND HUGE NEWS FOR TEXAS MMA FANS* As we confirmed the UFC is returning to Dallas, Texas on 1/16/2027 at American Airlines Center for a UFC Fight Night. Per sources a huge fight that was planned for the massive #ufc336 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 1/30/2027 has since pivoted about 2 weeks earlier to the VERY anticipated #ufcdallas Fight Night between Roberto Soldic (@soldicmma ) and Daniel “D-Rod” Rodriguez. (@d_rod_ufc ) #ufc #dallas #texas

:). Dallas has a banger
113
More than likely the reason for Soldic vs D-Rod to be moved from #ufc336 to #ufcDallas is because of Canada's strict AF entry laws. Canada maintains some of the strictest border-crossing laws in the world regarding criminal records. Under Canadian immigration law, individuals who have been convicted of an offense or served time in a foreign prison—particularly for drug-related charges—are typically deemed criminally inadmissible. Rather than trying to obtain a TRP (temporary resident permit) the UFC and DRods team is like this is easier to move bout into the States and they have a main card banger in place for Dallas I also want to HT @zaclikesmma for questioning the eligibility of this fight to be in Canada along with @SenthilvelanMMA #ufc #mma
