Winner: Jack Della MaddalenaWho He Ought to Face Subsequent: Shavkat Rakhmonov

I do know the large speak is about probably having present Light-weight champion Islam Makhachev transfer as much as face “JDM” in his first-ever title protection, however I personally don’t really feel that transfer, at the very least not proper now. I might a lot reasonably see Makhachev defend his 155-pound strap in opposition to Ilia Topuria, after which have Maddalena defend in opposition to Rakhmonov, who’s the rightful No. 1 contender. Sorry, Ian.

Winner: Valentina ShevchenkoWho She Ought to Face Subsequent: Natalia Silva

Talking of “champ vs. champ” fights, it looks like it’s excessive time UFC books a much-desired bout between Shevchenko — the queen of the Flyweights — and Zhang Weili, the Strawweight champion. Zhang referred to as for it final night time, and her transferring as much as problem for that belt is the transfer to make…a bit later. Natalia Silva regarded nice final night time by defeating former champion, Alexa Grasso, and she or he is greater than deserving of getting a crack at “Bullet.” Silva is on a 13-fight win streak, and has received all seven of her fights contained in the Octagon, and may declare the No. 1 spot subsequent week.

Winner: Aiemann ZahabiWho He Ought to Face Subsequent: Marlon Vera vs. Mario Bautisa winner

After Zahabi defeated Jose Aldo final night time, he bought on the mic and referred to as for a struggle in opposition to Marlon Vera. The issue with that is “Chito” is at present booked to face off in opposition to Mario Bautista at UFC 316 in June. Zahabi — winner of six straight — ought to maintain a detailed eye on that struggle as a result of he could possibly be going through the winner.

Winner: Benoit Saint DenisWho He SHould Face Subsequent: Joel Alvarez

It’s a no brainer, UFC must re-book this struggle after Alvarez withdrew on account of a hand damage. Saint Denis stayed on the cardboard and submitted Kyle Prepolec within the second spherical. “God of Warfare” escaped unfazed, so if he can simply sit again and await Alvarez’s hand to get higher to allow them to settle their enterprise as soon as and for all.
