Don’t post much here but had some thoughts about some potential matchups after this card. Let me know what you guys think.
O’Malley vs Kyung Ho Kang
Both men have won 3 straight. With O’Malley being only 25 and 3 ufc fights he shouldn’t be rushed too hard. Kang is dangerous everywhere and will probably answer a few questions about O’Malleys TDD yet O’Malley will have the striking advantage
Oliveira vs Mickey Gall
Both fighters were booked to fight before and makes sense. Cowboy being 1-3 in his last 4, shouldn’t get a huge step up here. Oliveira will have big xp advantage but Gall is 28 and probably won’t be improving a whole lot more.
Magny vs Luque/Brown Winner
Magny had a scheduled fight against Luque about a year ago before it got cancelled. Should Brown win, Magny is an experienced opponent that would be a good name to have. Should Luque win like I expect, both men are around the top 15 and it would be interesting to see if Luque could finish the usually durable Magny.
Dariush vs Tsarukyan/Ramos Winner
Although I think Dariush deserves a bit more of a step up with 4 straight wins, the division seems likes it’s really booked at the moment. Tsarukyan is still a really good prospect, I mean they gave him Islam in his debut. The grappling here would be really fun if he wins against ramos.
Zhang vs. Namajunas/Andrade Winner
Clear No. 1 contenders fight. Should Namajunas win it would be a very fun striking battle. Andrade got dusted in the first fight but I would think the 2nd fight would at least be a bit more competitive
Adesanya vs Costa
Not much to say here. Costa is the obvious man in line and the most fun fight to make. Costas raw power/aggression vs Adesanyas range/precision. Hope it gets booked soon.
