All that Whittaker v Pereira chat was pointless... Pereira just announced he's moving up to LHW
I see Bareman wants Adesanya to fight Hill for the LHW belt. Maybe the UFC will allow it because it will give time for something to develop at MW
Whittaker v Du Plessis for an interim belt?
Bo Nickal for Adesanya?

Eventually, but even if they fast track him thats 2-3 fights away.
Move Khamzat up a division?
The UFC wants a big event in Africa soon. I think they'll want Adesanya v Du Plessis to be the headline but it's hard to argue for him having a title fight without beating Whittaker
-
Whittaker v Du Plessis for an interim belt?
This fight is confirmed for UFC 290 in July. Not for an interim belt.. that may change depending on what Adesanya does next
290 will have Hooker v Turner and probably Volk v Yair. A fun card
I suspect they are going to let Adesanya go for the LHW belt. There were several MW fights confirmed this week, so the potential opponents are all busy now. Whittaker/Du Plessis, Hermansson/Allen, Vettori/Cannonier, Strickland/Magomedov

Sterling v Cejudo -

I hope Cejudo has a few more fights. Not sure how interested he is in fighting in non title fights though
I see some have suggested he fight Holloway at 145. The size difference would be huge but Cejudo would still have a chance
It's a way of giving both of them a big fight. Neither of them are getting a title shot again soon

If the numbers were good, a rematch against Sterling is on the cards
Sterling has been a very fortunate champion
-
Very fortunate. It looks like O'Malley was already contracted for the winner no matter what happened.
I guess Cejudo could wait a year
Such a good division. I want Sterling to lose the belt so Dvalishvili can have a good crack at it

UFC 290
Here we go
This might be the best card of the year
So many entertaining matchups
-
Looking forward to seeing how Ulberg goes overnight. He's shown big improvements each fight.. hope it continues
Walker is always fun. If he doesn't fight like a tard he's better than Smith. But it's entirely possible he puts on a show for 3-4mins and gasses
Garry to extend his winning streak
A couple of interesting HW matchups too. A decent card.
Jairzinho Rozenstruik v Jailton Almeida
Anthony Smith v Johnny Walker
Daniel Rodriguez v Ian Garry
Carlos Ulberg v Ihor Potieria
Alex Morono v Tim MeansMatt Brown v Court McGee
Karl Williams v Chase Sherman -

I missed the prelims. The card had some heavy favourites. I guess with the ABC audience the UFC wanted finishes and to showcase some fighters they think will kick on
Ulberg got it done but that was a strange finish.. keep punching until ref tells you to stop. Accurate punch that got the knock down
What the fuck was Smith talking about and why didn’t Walker go for the kill late in the 3rd? Weird fight
-
Matt Brown living his nickname
Great finish from Battle
Ulberg and Garry looked very comfortable
-
Should be very entertaining
-
Good challenge for Kai Kara-France on Sunday. Albazi has a bit of hype behind him and he's going up the rankings fast. Striker v Wrestler
Mullarkey worth watching on the prelims. His fights are always entertaining
Hope Arlovski goes well. 44 years old, still competitive, pro debut last century back when he had hair like 1980s George Michael
