The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the eight time in promotional history last Saturday (June 3, 2017) using UFC 212: Aldo vs. Holloway. It was a solid night of bits that saw nine of 12 bouts ending inside the distance, and with all the fights currently in our rear perspective, let’s look at some potential matchups featuring a few of the opponents from the evening…
Max Holloway vs. Frankie Edgar
Holloway dethroned Jose Aldo to turn into new king at 145 pounds, and for his first official title defense, I think it would make most sense for him to carry on Frankie Edgar, as that is a matchup fight fans have been wanting to see for a while today. The other potential candidate for a title shot in Cub Swanson, but his last loss came at the hands of Holloway in a really critical fashion. That’s not a battle that peaks the interest of fight fans, as Holloway will be anticipated to be a massive favorite. The Edgar fight is one in so everybody would like to see it. I believe this potential featherweight title would are a great fit to main event UFC 216 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Claudia Gadelha vs. Rose Namajunas
Gadelha made brief work of Poland’s Karolina Kowalkiewicz, beating her from rear-naked choke submission from the very first form of activity. She now enjoys a two-fight winning streak, also for her next outing inside the Octagon, I want to see her take on Namajunas at a title eliminator. Both fighters earned quick victories in their most recent bouts, so I want to see them create a fast turnaround to co-main event August’s UFC Fight Night in Mexico City.
Brian Kelleher vs. Bryan Caraway
Kelleher gained a first-round guillotine-choke submission over veteran Iuri Alcantara in what was a picture perfect promotional debut for its 30-year-old, who employed his post-fight speech to ask for a Top 10 ranked opponent for a quick turnaround on the upcoming Long Island card in July. I believe an opponent that makes sense is Caraway, that has not seen action since a split decision win over Aljamain Sterling just over one year ago. I believe this is a pairing which is reasonable for both fighters and are a good fit anywhere on the Long Island card.
