Winner: Alexandre Pantoja
Who He Should Face Next: Brandon Royval 3 … (hesitantly)
Since Demetrious Johnson turned down Pantoja’s request for a fight, he will have to look within the UFC ranks to keep chugging along. The man who is deserving based on rankings is recent wins is Brandon Royval. That’s because he is currently ranked No. 1 in the division and is on a two-fight win streak.
Winner: Shavkat Rakhmonov
Who He Should Face Next: Belal Muhammad title fight
After defeating Garry, Ralhmanov will now attempt to snap Muhammad’s 11-fight unbeaten streak and take his 170-pound strap.
