If you turn on ABC tonight, Thursday, July 24, 2025, hoping to watch a new episode of 9-1-1, you’re unfortunately out of luck. In place of 9-1-1 Season 8 reruns, ABC will be airing a new episode of Celebrity Family Feud, starring the Arquette family, Martina McBride, Patti LaBelle, and Fantasia.
The main event in Abu Dhabi features a ranked middleweight matchup between Robert Whittaker and Reinier de Ridder. Coming from a traditional martial arts base, Whittaker has developed into one of the more unique striking stylists at 185 pounds.
