Islam Makhachev is still the UFC welterweight champion, but it was one of the toughest fights of his career as he hung on to defeat Ian Machado Garry in the main event of UFC 330. Who does Makhachev face in his second title defense, and where does Garry go from his first championship opportunity?
On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck discusses what’s next for Makhachev following his record-setting win, if it’s Carlos Prates or Michael Morales, or somebody else, and what could be next for Garry? Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Mackenzie Dern following her lopsided title defense over Gillian Robertson in the co-main event, along with fellow main card winners Jalin Turner, Dustin Stoltzfus, Esteban Ribovics, and more.
Also, the fellas go rapid fire with the MMA Fighting viewers, as they read off their matchmaking suggestions following the UFC’s latest trip to Philadelphia.
