Jamahal Hill - I can’t see Dana White giving either Błachowicz or Ankalaev another shot, I’m not sure we see Procházka or Rakić being fit. I’m going to throw a curveball here… Alex Pereira to avenge his teammate.
Glover Teixeira - After he laid his gloves in the centre of the octagon, all we can say is Thanks for an incredible career, Glover.
Brandon Moreno - Easiest one to pick all night. We need Moreno vs Alexandre Pantoja 3 for the title.
Deiveson Figueiredo - Before this fight, I said “win or lose, Figgy should go to 135 pounds” I stand by that as does Deiveson following his post-fight speech. There are so many fun fights for him up there and I think the best choice is the loser of Marlon Vera/Cory Sandhagen.
Gilbert Burns - He has to fight up, no debate. Since Covington is hiding right now, I think the best matchup here is the loser of Leon Edwards/Kamaru Usman 3 makes the most sense for Burns.
Neil Magny - This is a tough one, Magny has fought a lot of the top 15 at Welterweight and a lot of them are already matched up. However, he shouldn’t be punished for going to Brazil and losing to Burns. I think a fight against Vicente Luque makes sense who’s on a two-fight skid himself.
Jessica Andrade - It all depends on which division Andrade wants to fight in, lets's assume Flyweight considering that’s where she fought last night. Manon Fiorot asked for one more test before fighting for the title and don’t be surprised to see Andrade being that test.
Lauren Murphy - Lauren needs a long layoff after that war, she showed excellent durability and is an absolute warrior. The winner of Andrea Lee/Maycee Barber which is happening in March makes the most sense.
Johnny Walker - After Walker’s impressive first-round finish, he’ll definitely be fighting up and I could see him having a big jump. Walker vs Aleksandar Rakić makes sense in my opinion depending on how far along Rakić’s recovery is.
Paul Craig - Another loss for Bearjew means he’s likely fighting down, I could see a matchup with Khalil Rountree next for him who’d be coming in on a three-fight win streak.
