UFC 279 went down last night (Sat., Sept. 10, 2022) from within T-Mobile Arena in the city, Nevada,
that saw Nate Bartholomeu Dias submit Tony Ferguson within the main event of the evening in what might are the Francis Richard Stockton slugger’s last fight within the polygon. at least for a jiffy.
within the co-main event, Khamzat Chimaev steamrolled Kevin The Netherlands via first-round submission.
Result: Nate Diaz wins
After his persuade Ferguson, Dias declared that he would be taking a possibility from MMA since he fought out his contract with UFC. He can currently shift his attention to his own fight promotion, that he hopes to create up within the coming back years.
He did say he’d come to the polygonal shape down the road, however, there’s no purpose in assumptive he’ll face as a result of it might be years before the Stockton slugger returns.
Result: Khamzat Chimaev wins
Who He Should Face Next, Colby Covington
After Chimaev defeated Kevin Holland to win his sixth in a row,
he will now have to win at least one more fight before he can challenge for the title. After all, Chimaev missed weight for his bout against Diaz by a lot,
prompting the UFC to shuffle a lot of pieces around so as not to lose an event.
He had beaten Díaz ahead of time and would have gotten his proper title shot had he won.
Now, Covington looks like a reasonable next opponent with this upcoming fight when Chimaev makes it as 3rd ranked fighter due to missing weight.
The winner then gets to challenge him next. Colby has this down as their chance to eliminate the “Smesh Express” in order to get another title shot.
Result: Irene Aldana wins
Who She Should Face Next, Julianna Pena
Aldana picked up her second straight win when marking one in all the foremost distinctive knockouts in recent memory, unhealthful Macy Chiasson with associate degree up-kick to the liver,
that rendered her unable to continue. Aldana is presently hierarchic No. four within the women’s Bantamweight division, and includes a convert the No. a pair of hierarchic fighter, Ketlen Vieira. Sitting at No.
three is Holly Holm World Health Organization defeated Aldana however is returning off a loss to Vieira.
Pena desires a 3rd fight against Amanda Nunes, however I simply don’t see her obtaining it. After all, she lost the title in her initial defense and was completely mauled by “Lioness” within the repeat, thus a 3rd fight isn’t secured. i feel a fight against Aldana makes a lot of sense.
Result: Daniel Rodriguez wins
