    I have to agree with the others....if you are really serious, you should get your own domain and hosting so that you can customize it the way you want.
    You are limited to what Blogger will let you do, which is the same limitations, and look as every other blogger blog.

    The only way to stand out and do something that is truly original and offer the kind of user experience that will stand out, is to do it yourself.

    Unfortunately that means you have to spend a dollar or two and learn some customizations. Many scripts, plug ins and platforms online are free. You could get some really cheap hosting, a domain, and then use Word Press which is free, and choose from literally 1000's of plug ins to do what you want.

    So for $10 up front and $5 a month in hosting (Just estimating), the sky is the limit.
    So to answer your question...No, I do not think you can monetize it enough...a few dollars here or there... MAYBE!

    The days of setting up a free blog, and hoping to make enough to build a better blog are just about over, especially for one that has just taken content from other places. If it's not worth the investment for you until you see if you can make any money, then you will definitely not make any money. That is an attitude for mediocrity, which leads to failure online.

    There are hundreds of blogger You Tube sites and they all look alike.

    I have a video blog of my own that I am putting together, and it would not be worthwhile to me if I had to work with the limitations of a free hosted blog.

    Not sure whether this is intentional but you might want to check on your title. Currently it is showing

    <title> Hardcore UFC

    I recommend WordPress. It's better than Blogger

    Fix the title, get a favicon if you can
    Get a different template not necessarily a premium (costly one).

    As others have said add relevant text to the blog

    Good luck with the blog

    Kind Regards
