Exciting Developments in Middleweight and Tequila's Legacy

Reveille, Revellie Donks! Luke Thomas and Brian Campbell are back for a Monday edition of Morning Kombat!

First up, the guys discuss the new exclusive deal the UFC signed with Paramount early this morning to broadcast all 43 of their live events beginning in 2026.

Next, Fluffy Hernandez scored the best win of his career and eighth in a row as he brutally stopped Roman Dolidze in the fourth round via rear-naked choke. Just how impressive was this victory and does he now jump the line ahead of the winner of Caio Borralho-Nassourdine Imavov?

Steve Erceg scored a unanimous decision victory over Ode Osbourne, but the fight nearly got out of hand several times. Should this lackluster performance be viewed as Erceg dealing with nerves after three consecutive losses or are there bigger issues with Erceg's development and overall skill level?

And more results from UFC Apex 109, including Elijah Smith's slam KO of Toshiomi Kazama!

Plus, the fellas recap the results from PFL Africa and the implications, including Francis Ngannou's no-show.
