Serghei Spivac - After beating Lewis, Spivac will most likely fight up the rankings in his next fight and the only realistic option I see is Tai Tuivasa who’s coming off a two-fight skid himself.
Derrick Lewis - Before this fight, I said the loser of Lewis vs Spivac should fight the winner of Tybura vs Ivanov. I’ll stick with that and pair Derrick up with Marcin Tybura.
Devin Clark - After an impressive win as an underdog against Da Un Jung, I could see Clark fighting for a ranking spot in his next fight. As a reminder, only five fights ago he fought Anthony Smith in a 5 round main event. I’d put Devin Clark in there with Dustin Jacoby.
Da Un Jung - Despite two good wins over Kennedy Nzechukwu and William Knight, Da Un Jung has found himself on the end of two losses in a row. I’d like to see him fight Ion Cutelaba.
Doo Ho Choi - Although the scorecards read that he “drew” with Kyle Nelson last night, Dana White confirmed Choi was paid his full purse in the post-fight press conference. I’d put him in with Daniel Argueta who last won in January on the undercard of the Strickland vs Imavov card.
Kyle Nelson - Unfortunately for Kyle, I could very well see him being cut this week. He’s 1-4-1 in his last six fights (and arguably 1-5.) If he’s not cut, I see him facing off with Nick Aguirre who lost in his UFC debut last time out.
Adam Fugitt - The promising Fugitt got his first win in the UFC last night in a first-round stoppage. I’d throw him in there with the experienced Warlley Alves to see where he’s really at.
Yusaku Kinoshita - After losing his UFC debut last night, Kinoshita will most likely fight someone coming off a loss. I see him next meeting Mounir Lazzez who last fought at UFC 283.
